OUR WOMEN.

The attention of the readers of
the BEE is called to the report on
the womans Baptist Home Mission
conference that was held last We'd
nesday, Thursday, and Friday
The conference closed on Friday
night, on which evening the edi-
tor OF this paper spoke and whose
address will be found in another
colum of this issue. The BEE re-
ceived the uninamouS endorse
ment of the conference end it's
Job Printing office and paper
were recommended to the Baptist
denomination throughout the city
for which the ebitor of the Be-

ment and profound thanks.

LET EVERY CITIZEN ATTEND.

The citizens of this city will hold
a mass meeting at the 9TH Baptist
Church, ON next Wednesday even.
ing November 7th, for the purpose
of convincing DR.. Francis how the
people feel over his action i'll the
school board on last Tuesday even
ing. We consider his actions un-
futifable and an effort to deprive
the colored people of an Office to
which they are entitled. His scheme
was premeditated and looks like a
conspiracy against the people
he claims to represent. IfDr. Fran
els, has any personal spleen against
Mr.. Cook, let him ask for his remov-
al and not the abolition of an Office
to which we are justly entitled.
Let every liberty loving citizen be
present next Wednesday night at
s o'clock.

OUR ENDORSEMENT.

The editor of the BEE extends
TO the ladies, gentlemen and min

me Mission Society his sincere tha-
nks for the unanimous endorse
ment of his paper and their kind
words Of encouragement and
determination to support the col
ored press; especially the BEE and
it's Job Printing office. 1t is our
desire to promote the interests OF
the colored race of all denomina
tions, but the recognation receiv
ed at the meeting Of the Baptist
Home Mission society is a recog
nation that will be honored and
reciproca'ed by the editor of this
paper. We say to the Baptist
and other denominations of the
coiored people, that the colums ct

A MASS MEETING OF THE PEOPLE AT
THE 5th BAPTIST CHURCH.

The colored citizens of the Dis
trict of Columbia will hold mass
meeting at the 5th Baptist church,
Rev. G. w. Lee, pastor, on next
Wednesday evening, Nov. 7th. for
the purpose of considering the best
interest of our colored public
schools and oppose the measure of
DR.. j. r. Francis, presented in the
school board of trustees on last
Tuesday evening, asking for the
abolition of the Office of the colored
superintendent of our colored
schools. All the colored citizens
in the District of Columbia are re.
quested to be present, all persons
interested in the welfare of our col,
ored schools are requested to be
present. Shall the interest and
progress of the colored schools be
injured by mismanagement, and
shall citizen be condemned for
pointing out gross irregularities in
the High school where our children
are expected to receive a higher
education? Let there be a full
meeting.

The report is a full and unequiv-
ocal vindication to Prof. Browne,
but it fails to make any recon-
mendation, which showed coward
ice on the part of the committee.
Mr.. Fish demanded remedy, but
the ~ committee, although they
had remedy, failed to present it.
The board of school trustees
met on last Tuesday evening, in
the Franklin building with Mr..
Ross in the chair. The report Of
the committee on the Cardoza
investigation was made by Mr..
Cornish, rs follows.
First. The evidence fails to
substantiate any inefhciency or
want of ability on the part of Mr..
Brown in the performance of his
duty as teacher in the branches
assigned him.
Second. That theirs is nothing
in the evidence tending in the
remotest degree to reflect npon
his moral character; but, on the
contrary, his associate teachers,
three of whom are ladies, who
were summoned before the com
mittee testify to his manly bearing
and gentlemanly conduct in all his
official relations and responsible
tiles as instructor in the school.
The committee also find in the
investigation certain irregularities
in the High School which should
receive the attention of the proper
standing committee, but are of the
opinion that they are not empow-
cred by the resolution under which

But few days and the battle will
have been decided. With to-
nights grand pageant at New
York The prelimiuaries will have
heen Completed, and the business
of Furnishing up political armor
vigorously begun. The low mouth
ed orator and the sleek jobber will
make Way for the solemn pantom-
lmest who will act his part on the
Stage and abide the result. What
The result will be, who knows?
The uncertainty of political cur
rents make that question doubt
ful of satisfactory answer. But
If principle goes for anything, if
the mature and sober judge ment
has it's weight in determining the
result, We are morally sure of the
election of the republican nomi-
nees. And why should they not
be elected? Do they not represent
the true and tried friends of the
best ideas of a representative gov
ernment? Do they not represent
a class whose ideas of economy
comport with the best experience
and success of nations-an eXper-
ience which makes the security
of home Interests paramount to
the interests of foreign powers?
Do they not represent sound doc
trius as to the importance of nat
ioual education? Do they not
represent the idea that the weight
of political expression must com
prehend the methods of political
expression? Do they not favor a
'Etull and free ballot and fair
count?" and in that do they not
vouchsafe to the colo1ed man that
protection which is now denied
him and which will cvrt.nue to be
denied SO long as the brigadlers
control the Southern wing Of in
fuence and thought. That Har-
rison and Morton should be elect
ed is plain enough. Their election
however, depends upon the zeal
and fidelity of the men who claim
to be for the best interest of all
the people. 1t will depend also
very largely upon the interest and
fidelity of the eolored voter. He
must pull and seven and bold
stroke" If the colored people dc
their part the houors will not resi-
with us. The God of Israel still
lives aud we pray and hope for &

The weekly conference of our
Baptist ministers which meets every
Monday morning at the Zion Bap-
tist church is truely an interesting
meeting of able ministers. Next
Monday morning Rev. Laws will
read paper entitled "the extreme
corner of the church of God is the
sick bed of his saints.'
The sentiment in this community
is that the Government has no
right to grant licences to sell
whiskey and then arrest people for
doing the same thing that police
men do: entering, driI king and
wilfully neglecting to protect the
community.
For the christian church to turn
out one memb Der for selling whiskey
and allow all the rest to buy and
drink it Of the whites, is very much
like the high license platform in
politics, only in favor of the rich.
The earnest workers of the Re-
hoboth Baptist church made show
ing on Monday evening last that
was very attractive.

MEAN OPPOSITION.

The BEE can boast of it's advertising
patronage and the success the paper
has met with since it eXsistance. 1t
has never attempted to take advant
age of any of its contemporaries, nor
has it ever attempted through mis-
representation to influence any one
TO take their patronage from any
paper. We were informed by one
our advertisers that a man repre-
senting one the local colored pa.
pers stated to him that the BEE
was a non.unlOu paper and that it
would be we'll to Withdraw his pa
tronage from it. We desire to
state to the public and the
patrons Of the BEE, that this is
the only union paper of color in
the District of Columbia, and the
only paper of color that pays uuion
wages, that all of our help are OIL
ored; that we employ more help
than all the negro Offices combined
in this city, that we have a larg-
er circulation than any colored pa
per i'm this city and our books are
opened for inspection, we handle
the only colored Office that is con-
Quoted with any system. The fact
of the matter is that there is pre-
judice against this Office by our
contemporaries but not withstand
