Porter 1s after Howard. Editor Cooper thinks the weather is too warm for taffy pulling, Some men tell all they know. The old woman gossiper in the recorders office should give herself a rest. She informed a lady a few days a- go that she had a cinch on the new recorder. Liars can never succeed. She predicts the discharge of other employes and says she is solid. The Bex is here to stay and don’t you forget it. You will hear something drop in a few days. Bogus enterprises are numerous in this city. _ The Beghas warned the people in time. ; | John W. Butcher is a faithful wor | ker. - | Public Printer Benedict has great \ faith in him. Never desert a friend when he get out of power. The day may come when he may return. A good friend is hard to find. B. K. Bruce was true to his friends. The BEx is his friend and always will be. John Mitchel, Jr. is a brave negro. While the Bee opposed him at ' Chicago for the presidency, he is hon- | est. His only mistake is, he allowed the session of the ccnvention to be taken up with smokey speeches by impos- tors. Brother John will be re elected president if he wants it. Let us have a big meeting in Rich~ mond, next September. Superintendent Cook is doing weil. William Henry Smith will be the next house Librarian. ‘Tanager Cooper will surprise his ; enemies, He has assisted many a dead beat and vag. He is a whole soul man. The Bee knew that it would be but a short time before he found out the sneaks, It is better to allow a man to con- vince himself. McGhee is married §to an accom- plished lady in Louisville, Ky. Dont be alarmed when you hear a gun go off. e The Bux is opposed to dead beats. Those who have invested in stock in certain negro enterprises should in vestigate. Proceeds 250 per day, expenses 275. The stockholders must meet the deficiency. The people of this city should watch more and pray less. Don't get jealous of your neighbor. Read the BEE and be happy. REDUCED RATES TO CLEVE- LAND.
