It is said that the negro republi- cans are opposed to the renomina- tion of ex-President Harrison for President. So far as Gen]. Harrison is con- cerned, there has never been a President who has done more for the negroes of this country than Genl. Harrison. Because he would not allow a class of crafty politicians to run him he was defeated. ‘The negro has al- ways regarded Genl. Harrison as hip friend. We has proven that on more than one occasion. If he were nominated to-day he would sweep the country, notwithstanding the predictions of his enemies. He was safe and loyal to his party and true to his country. Let us hope that the next Bepubli- ean Convention may not nominate @ worse man than Genl. Harrison. “IN A MUDDLE. The National Republiean Com- mittee has made a mess of things in District politics. Who ever heard of turee judges of elections being appointed who are them- selves candidates for office, and they are to be judges of their own election. There are at least ten candidates for delegate from this city exclud- ing the three gentleman who have been named as judges of elections. please take notice, tf tnese men are candidates who have cer- tain houses designated for colored people, and they can be found in the alleys or some other isolated place let him remain at home FOR COLORED PEOPLE ONLY. Are these the kind of republicans that must represent you? Men wh: wait the sulfrages of the peop'e should be made to treat them with respect and eonsideration. At the proper time The Bee will expose these hide-bound republi- cans and teach them to know their places. THE AFRO-AMERICAN LEAUUE, The members of the Afro-Amezi- can League which number over 30,- 000 are reques ed to patronize all persons in business who believe in race enterprise. The Ber is the organ of the league and itis requested that its advertisers be liberelly patronized. VENEZULAN COMMISSION. The President has named his Venezulan Commission, who are men of sound judgment and na- tivnal reputation. The bill that passed Congress and created the commission and the appointment of the same was done after mature consideration. Our Congress is to be congratu- lated, and the President showed good sense when he appointed men of such character and learning. The Commission stands as fol- lows: Daniel J. Brewer, of Kan- sas ; Richard H. Alvey, of Mary- land; Andre v D. White and Fred- erick R Coundent, of New York. The tempest in the tea pot will be settled by arbitration. THE WASHINGTON BEE.

The BEE that is always up to date. j in news and all matter of interest has | published below the boundary lines of | the twenty-two districts in the District of Columbia, which will enable those | ‘who don’t know in what district they | live to know. Things are in a wuddle and if the members of the National Commit- tee are satisfied that they have rec- tified things in this city they are ‘1.4? BEE will contain a true ac- count of the treatment of colored mistaken. ARBITRARY POWER. What authority the National Re. publican Committee had to abolish the Republican Central Committee of the District of Columbia no one knows. The istrict republicans are a set of cowards and serfs and seem will ing to accept every and any imposi- tion and indignity that may be in- flicted upon them, There were two republican organ- izations in the District of Colum- bia,at the time the National Com- mittee appointed the three judges. The only question to be decided was which one was the legal com- mittee. Instead of doing that both republican organizations are abol- ished and the judges of elections have been appointed, who are a- vowed candidates for delegates. How will such procedure settle the differences among the republi- cans? What can be expected buta con- test from this city to the National Convention? Chairman Carter made the same mistake that the National Commit- tee made and that wasto appoiut as one of the judgesof elections, aman who is a candidate. Does Chairman Carter and the National Committee think that the republicans of this city will swal- low su-h? Weare also told that, if there is a contest representation in the District of Columbia to re- publican conventions, will be de- nied the republicans. Could the National Committee take away the representation in the South ? This was talked of some time ago, because the negro delegates had their choice, or because they favored Genl. Harrison. Because'a set of republicans ex- press their opinion about a matter people at the Atlanta Exposition by a gentleman of high moral and in- tellectual standing. Editor Fortune of the New York Age gave a true expose of the treat- ment of the colored people at the Atlanta Exposi ion. Sas Our advertisers are notified to be- ware of bogus advertising agents iy The Natio al Committee and the daily press will find out that th day of bossism in the District of Columbia has passed. Onward is the watchword of Thc BEB. The souvenir edition of The Bar will be issued January 11thor 18th. Mr. R. H. Key is making a bril- liant fight.

Three great British scientific socletie: are agreed that it is the duty of the British Government to fit out an ex: pedition for thorough antarctic explo. tation. In November, 1893, the Roya Geographical Society appointed a not able committee to inquire into the pro priety of such an expedition and re. port. They reported in favor of hav ing the Government send two suitabl vessels to explere the south polar re gions and keep them at it for threc years. The report was adopted an¢ transmitted to the Royal Society, whici in turn appointed a powerful commit: tee, which in May, 1894, reported strong ly in favor of the scheme. At the be ginning of the present year the coun ceil of the British Association gave the flan its vigorous indorsement, and i' doubtless took further action on it a its recent annual meeting in Septem. ber. The plan of Dr. John Murray, 01 the Challenger, who addressed ths Royal Geographical Society on the sub- Ject two years ago, was to send oul two suitable Government steamships o! about 1,000 tons each, have them start in September, land a company of abou’ ten men somewhere south of Cap Horn and another in Victoria Land and have these parties spend two yeart er more ashore, exploring the antaro- dic continent. The ships would lan¢ the shore parties the first summer, visi them the second, and take them off the third, and would spend their owr winters and all their other available time in deep sea and other observa: tions along the outer margin of the ant. arctic ice, What may be found on the antarctie continent no map can say. Animal life in abundance was found last year at Cape Adair by C. E. Borchgrevink, © young Norwegian, who sailed there a» ! one of the crew of a whaler, and whose account of his experiences excited in- terest at a recent geographical congress in London. Mr, Borchgrevink wants to go back, and writes to the London Times pressing for “further and imme- diate research within the antarctic cir- cle.” It is held to be possible that a new race of men may exist somewhere within hail of the south pole, and that such creatures as the ichthyosaurus may still survive in the antarctic seas, Seals and sea-birds are abundant there; what else no one can say; but many inquisitive persons want to know. { Our countryman, Dr. Frederick Cook, greatly desired to fit out an American south polar expedition to start out this last fall and catch the next antarctic summer, but his efforts in that direc- tion seem not yet to have come to any- thing. Perhaps he will do better an- other year; but at any rate there seems a real prospect that a serious attempt to find out whatever can be known about the antarctic continent will be made before the present century ends, —Harper’s Weekly.
