Likewise he is an editor Of q newspaper
published here called the Bee The day
after the election he wrote and caused to
lbe printed the following:
"It i time for every American negro
lin the South 10 make an appeal to arms
land fire every Democratic house where
live, from palace to hut.
lin retaliation for the foul and dastardly
murders that were committed in the
South. We speak without fear, and in
defense OF the helpless negro. II is far
more noble to die the death Of Q free man
than live an ignominious slave. The l52
Electoral votes from the South were OBJ
Itained through theft and assassination.
Schemes ofthe most outrageous character
were resorted 10. negroes murdered,
lballot-boxes stuffed, &c. Under these
it will cost the lives OF
millions to inaugurate Grover Cleve-
Hand"
The Presidents attention was called to
The above, and be was at first inclined to
refuse TO see the committee; but, after
further inquiry into Chase's record, he
was curious 10 see the colored editor,
actor and politician.
| The President accordingly directed
Colonel Lamont to inform the committee
THAT he would meet them When the
was shown into the Presi-
dents library Chase was prepared to
give the President q sample OF his elo-
|cutionary attainments. Before he got
fairly started the President drew forth
u copy Of the Bee OF November 5th, and
asked Chase IL he was the author OF the
editorial it contained Poor Chase Was
demoralized. II is said that
he actually turned pale. The President
said he did not care TO have any dealings
with person who could be guilty Of
such statement. and, more
lover. such man was not Q fit person to
represent any clGss OF citizens, black or
white. Before the committee had recov-
,ered from It's establishment the Presi-
dent had turned to greet some other vis-
itors, aud the committee quietly sneaked
out OF the room.
