A SHAME. From the Kansas City Messenger.] A few days ago Miss Anna H. J of the Linco n High Seool, this received a call of the Wash an she gets when Miss has perfected her arrangements », we do not know whether she will accept it or not, but her going would certainly be a loss to the Kansas City High School, as Miss Jones is better equipped by caion and experience than any teacher we have had, or would be able to induce to come. Though a collegiate, being an alum- nus of Michigan University, she has ad to study and is ret A r, She is as un- assuming as if her attainments were not of a superior order, and does not keep herself on the unapproachable pinnacle that most well-educated peo- ple mount. We extend our hearty congratulations to Miss Jones for the honor conferred on her in being called to such a school. If there ever was a piece of impo- sition practiced on the people of this city it is the importation of M Anna H. Jones, of the Lincoln High Sehool of Kansas City, Mo., to the High School of this city. he peo- ple of this city wili not tolerate it. Where all of the competent lady teachers in this city?

One of the most diabolicfl cases ever tried in the police court was the charge against Mrs. Ellen McDonald, the pro- prietress of a reputable saloon in South Washington. ‘the case was manufac- tured by Sergeant Daley. The wit- nesses were Eliza Grant, Belle Scott and aman, all of whom have served some time in the workhouse. ee Shillington represented the det After the witnesses for the prosecu- tion had*testified. Judge Miller and James Pugh, esq., the district attorney, became disgusted. District Attorney Pugh, who is always fair and just in his prosecution, said that he had nothing to ay and was glad that the court took a se in the manner that he Judge Miller d that he would not allow such witnesses to testify against reputable ‘stimony was that Sergeant Da- ley had given one of these women 25 cents to purchase whiskey from any sa- loon that was doing Sunday business. A bootblack, from the testimony, sold these women whiskey and gin, but from whom this bootblack purchased the li- quor th yomen could not tell, but the impression that they wanted to make to the court and jury was that they bought it at the place of Mrs. Me- Donald Sergeant Daley was not present, hence Officer Duya'l had to prosecute for Sergeant Daley, and he was and just in his testimony, and ct attorney informed the court that Officer McDonold had nothing to do with the prosecuticn on such manu- tactured testimony. Judge Miller, after having heard the evidence, became so disgusted that he gave a severe lecture to officers who would be guilty of prosecuting a case like the one he had before him, Judge Miller said that he is not call- ing any one’s name, but he didn’t pro- pose to allow the court over which he presided to be used for any such pur- a responsible officer brought a ca e in court, an officer who could be be- lieved on oath and whose testimony could be believed, he would allow the case to be tried, The methods that Sergeant Daley re- sort to to bring cases in court is a mockery ON justice and a disgrace to this comMunity. This is what the BEE thinks, While Judge Miller didn’t say this, those who have from time to time heard the testimony of Sergeant Daley’s witnesses, would come tothe same conclusions that the BEE comes to, The District Commissioners doing the wrong thing in indorsing Sergeant Daley in this method of mak- ing cases. He should be removed from the police fi Comini placing Daley’ o much credence in Sergeant of woe, THE EDITOR'S BLACK FRIDAY, THE FORMS “PIED” AND HIS HORSE KILLED.

BREAD THROWN IN THE WATER WLLL BE FOUND AFTER MANY DAYS. Washington, D. C., Oct. 25, 1894. Editor of the BEE : Sir: 1 have long intended to write you of my admiration of you for your | most gallant struggle for youradvicacy | of our race. We have long needed a man of your scholarly attainments and brilliant mind to depict to the public the manner in which our colored breth- ren are treated. Your scintillating wit, your dry humor. and your sad portrayal of the wrengs which are meted out to our brethren, appeals to me, as it does to all, in a forcible manner. Keep up the good work, and when the sands of your life haye run, w! your body has been consigned to tte cold, cold ground, and thy spirit takes its flight to thy Creator to reward thee for thy noble efforts, the public can in- deed say with truth, ‘The good dic oung.”” is Like the Rock of G braltar, you have stood while the missiles of opinion of disconcerted enemies floated around thy hallowed head ; standing like a light- house in times of storm, when great public questions agitated the public mind Respectfully, A Reader and Subscriber ——<—.- E E. COOPER. HIS DUPLICITY AND DECEPTION. Editor of the BEE: Permit one of your admirers a small space in your paper for the purpose of asking Mr. E. E. Cooper, the editor of the Color. d American, a few questions. Ist. Will the editor of the American explain to the public why heat this late day attacks Mr, Taylor ? 2d. Vid not Mr. Taylor pay a prom- issory note for him to the amount of 26 dollars ? d. Las not Mr. Cooper been paid for all he has done for Mr. ‘Taylor ? Now, Mr. Editor, I am of the opinion that Mr. Cooper should close his mouth. He was continually after Mr. ‘lor for money, and on one occasion called on the Recorder and asked him to lend him enough money to get out his paper. Mr. ‘Taylor put his hands in his pocket and loaned him the money Although Mr. Taylor has paid him in cash ail the money he owed him, his next demand on Taylor was fora place for his cousin ; this Mr. Taylor refused to give him. He now criticises the Recorder and says to the public through his paper that Taylor is untrue to his friends. Has he been untrue to Cooper? No. He has paid him all that he ever owe: him. One Who Knows. VOTERS OF NEW JERSEY. COnORED To the Colored Voters of the Stite of New Jersey: Your State Commit’ee, appointed by the State Convention at Trenton, Sep- tember 12, 1892, and. organiz-d at New- ark October 6, 1892, congratulates you upon the brilliant prospect of Republi victory, and your active, intellig-nt in- terest and participation in the efforts for its consummation. We endorse the R-publican Corgr: ss- ional nommees, and urge that every ef- fort be used for their el ction, to the end that the vicious tariff legislation of the Democratic party may be repealed, ir- dustrial prosperity again re-tored, and» nominees through the Stat, and urze that you give them earnest, encrzetic, loyal support; thus assuring the elect:cn of the Republican legislature and the return [0 the United States Senate of the splendid abilities, and broud statesmanship of the Honorable William J. Sewel'. We endorse the movement instituted by T. Thomas For'une, and agitated by Miss Ida B. Wells, fr the suppr: ssi: a of the dastardly crime of lynching, and urge that substantial finanei :] support be giv- en to Miss Wells in this propaganda of law and justice. We d precat the issuance of prorny- ciamentos by irresponsidle parii-s claim- ing te speak for the colored people of New Jersey and embarrassing the Kepubl: party by demagogie demands for im; sible and imprac ic able special | gislation, before the battle is fought or the victory won, We. depr: cate the introluction into tli State of the crude, separate, hari fu', “colored,’’ political movemen s fi vozue under the Reconst-uction governments; and urge tha: in every case | ossible you endeavor to exert your influesce an! gratify your ambitions through the chan- nels common to every member of the party. And we especialy urge that every vo'- er of the race vote himself and endesvor to influence one other vote for the Re- publican candidates. The drift ot public sentime:t plainly presages our succes: in November. Ther must be no lagga ds in our ranks Keep step in the victorious march and each do a man’s share toward the establishment of Triumphant Kepublicaniem.
