it's power to build them up. 1t is
our earnest desire to see the color
ed people unite and support their
own institutions. We cannot pay
greater tribute to the cOlOred
press than by saying that, not
withstanding the non-support from
the colored race, the recent Eman-
cipation of the Negro, majority
of the cOlored editors are making
an advancement in the field of jour
nalism. Some editors are peculiar
or they do things very often to
their detriment.
If organizations give picnics, ex-
cursions, &C., the cry is that the
colored people are spending too
much money. Is it supposed that
the colored people must forever
bury themselves and seek no pleas
ure? We would have the same
right to say, if white persons who
goon excursions would put their
money in some enterprise they
would be better Off. 1t is not so.
We all need recreation and without
it we will die sooner than we ex-
pect. 1t is only the ignorant Ne
gro editor who makes such asser-
tions as these. The Capital City
Guards, Cadets, Churches, &C.,
give picnics and excursions. These
institutions not only help the rail.
road, but themselves. The Cadets
and G. G. Guards carry their work
to colored printing houses, these
colored printing houses employ
colored printers. All of this talk
about the colored people putting
their money in some enterprise is
wind. They put it in the Freed
mans Saving bank, but what be-
came of it?
The colored people have just as
much right to seek pleasure and
enjoyment as the white people and
the sooner Negro editors learn this,
the better it will be for them and
the success of their papers. The
reason so many colored people die,
is because they work too hard and
don't take enough recreation. More
money, plenty to eat and drink,
and pleasure is what the Negro
needs.
If tue colored press would only
bear this in mind, we are of the
opinion that their paper would be
better supported. The BEE is do
ing very we'll by such lessons.

cash, she gave him some stock con-
sistiug of a horse and cows. The
stock was driven to Alexandria, by
the man and woman's son and not
by Messrs. Hewlett and Powder.
Mr.. Powder drove the stock from
Alexandria to this city after it
was turned over to him by the right
parties. This whole thing was in
stigated by the enemies of Mr..
Hewlett, who have for some time
been fighting him. There is no
more truth in the charge than there
is in the existence of Negro pres
ident.

COL. GEO. w. WILLIAMS.

In the issue of the bee last week.
we published the statement of
Mrs. Williams in reply to her hus-
bands divorce suit, only giving
one side of the affair, which we
now believe after investigation did
great injustice to Mr.. Williams.
We have from time to time crit
icised this gentleman from infor-
nation given to us by persons for
whom we have the highest regard,
believing what they said was reli-
able and correct. For a newspa-
per to retain the confidence of it's
readers, it must be reliable and
truthful, which we have endeav-
ored to be, and if we have divert
ed from the principles of true
journalism it was no fault of ours.
We have investigated carefully the
circumstances in the case of Mr..
Williams divorce suit, and instead
of condemning him he should be
applauded. AS a husband he has
not been found wanting, as man
his ability and the great work he
is doing for the race, compel US to
place him among the greatest of
the race. These assertions are no
idle fancies, nor are we actuated
by any undue influence or hope of
reward. We say this because we
know the man has been wronged
and misrepresented. He is doing
the r$ce a service and should be
aided; he is building monument
to posterity, why should his pro.
gress be impeded? We cannot be
party to demagoguery to do
man injury and what we have been
made aware Of by disinterested
persons, who are friendly to US and
to the success of this Journal to re-
quest a suspension of judgment
until the court decides it.

WHAT is THE REMEDY? ?

The system of peonage in the cot
51t Gf 1o Is thA III main al
its concomitants, of the colored
people who live there. 1t is trite
saying that "they who own the
land own the people who live there
on.' This is true every where.
In Ireland, with it's natural beau.
ty of landscape, it's soil which re-
spends quickly and generously, to
the touch oflabor, its salubrious eli
mate and all that entitle it to be
the Emerald Isle, there the oppres-
sion which springs from the landed
arlStocracy is to be found the fruit
full source of the woes which affect
the sons and daughters of Erin.
1t is the system of peOnage that
drives from Europe the thousands
Of emigrants for the shores of
America who seek fair reward for
the labor of their honor. This
same system Of peonage likewise
feeds the throttling power of the
landed dristocrat of the South to
crush the toiling millions of dusky
peasantry in the cotton. fields, rice
swamps and on the sugar and to-
bacco plantations.
In spite Of their industry and
economy they have yet been una.
BILE to make a rift in the dark
cloud of poverty, by which they
have been enveloped, and their
condition is but little removed from
that under the old slave system.
The wealth, avarice, arrogance
and political power of the South
are but the jewels glittering the
tears of an oppressed and long suf-
fering people, who feed from their
bone and Sinew now as before
Emancipation the boasted aristoc-
racy of the sonth. What is the
for this wretchednesS?
Many expedients have been tried
and failed. 1t is left to the great
panacea of emigration from the
south to more favorable localities
of the great open west and north
west to solve the mysterious prob
lem. When field hands are scarce
to find, to produce the annual two
million dollar cotton crop,
black labor will strike hands on
the plains of Justice with the capi-
bal of the southern land line.

the field ss a military historian,
and has chronicled the record oil
the colored troops in the late war.
He has gone farther, not being
content to write of them here in
America; he has begun With their
services in Egypt during the third
dynasty. A full title of the histo-
ry gives somewhat of an idea of
the scope. ga Military History
of Negro Troops in the War of the
Rebellion, 1S61-1865, Preceded
by a Review of the Military Ser
vices of Negro Soldiers in Ancient
and Modern Times" We under
stand that the work is to be elab-
orately illustrated and elegantly
printed.
1t is in four parts, [, The His
torical Precedents. Ii, Precedent
Events. III, The Negro Volunteer.
Nv, Negro Troops In Battle.
There is a quaint and curiously
interesting account OF Negro sol>
diers under the Egyptians three
thousand years before (B. G. $4,000
the Christian era, and clear and
forcible account of the military
exploits of Negro soldiers in mod
ern Egypt, Nubia, Spain, France,
England. Hayti, Mexico, Brazil,
Rome and in the war of the Rev.
oiution in this country and before
New Orleans in 1914.
This remarkable work deals
philosophically with the political
events Immediately preceding the
rebellion; expounds the creed of
the two great political parties;
points out the causes that led to
the war and carefully weighs pub
lie sentiment respecting the Negro.
There is an account of the military
rendition of fugitive slaves by the
army; succinct history of the leg
islation that secured the services
of the Negro to put down the
slave holders rebellion; a clear and
detailed account ofthe recruitment
of the Negroes; a wonderful pen
picture of the draft riots; chapter
on the military status OF the Ne
gro soldier, an account of the OBJ
stacles he was compelled to en-
counter; a scientific disquisition
upon his idiosyncratic traits, quail
tying him for the duties OF "a sol
dier, anu then he is led to the bat
tie field and his fighting is de-
scribed by campaigns. There is a
chapter on prisoners of war and
one on the cloud of witnesses to
the valor of the Negro soldier.
This great work closes with an
eloquent plea for a monument
to the Negro soldiers at Wash
ington in park named for Col.
Massachusetts Volunteers. It is
suggested by Col. Williams that
the park in front of Howard Uni
.versity, should be dedicated by
congress to this noble object.
We certainly wish this work
every success; and endorse the idea
of a monument as both timely and
fitting. When Col. Williams his
tory of our soldiers appears we
will give our readers a review
such as we are sure it deserves.
