THE METHODIST MINISTRY.
WHAT IS BEING DONE TO BUILD UP
THE DENOMINATION.

Tbs ministers of the A. M. T.;
Convention in this city have done
. great deal of work to build up
their denomination. They have
weekly meetings at the Metropol-
itan church, and discuss questions
and read papers for the better
government and advancement of
their denomination. The presid-
ing elder is DR.. James III.
johnson, of the Potomac District.
He 10 q scholar and o man OF infiu-
snce. He has the respect and con-
idence of every minister under
him, and under bis wise and
judicious direction the A. M. r..
convention in this city has been
advanced. He has such distin-
guished men under him as the
Revs. Cox, of Ebenszer; j., M.
Carghill, of Mt. .Pisgsh; Luke6eld
at Garfield; Robinson ut Hillsdale;
Mitchell, at Neltio; Arthur Jones,
at Georgetown; G. w. Fitzhugh,
at st. Paul, Triggs and Read. All
of these gentlemen are highly
educated and have done great
deal to place their churches and
denomination upon q high and
dignifed basis. They have brought
Methodism up to that progressive
and advanced standard equsl to
any in the United States. They
are all more or less young men
who entertain advanced ideas of
the christian religion. The public
should attend these weekly meet
ings at the Metropolitan church
and listen to the able discussions
on christian religion. There. has ,
never been such an intelligent
and educated class in this city
before of this denomination. :. Dr..
johnson knew what he was about
when he made the appointments
of these gentlemen. Dr. Phillips
of Irssel Bethel is also q man who
has been q great help to that
church. He is the pride of his
congregation. He belongs to the
Q. NJ. E. connection.

HE AGREES WITH US.
Western Appeal,

We extend cordial greetings to our ener-
getic and Intelligent friend, w. Calvin Chase,
OF the Washington Bee, for the manly blows
he strikes in favor Of Prof. Langston of the
Petersburg District. OF course every fairly
disposed person believes Mr.. Langston Was
elected by several thousand votes plurality.
However, our admiration for the Bee editor
ID increased because he talks out in meett-
ing-so to speak-in favor Of his race at this
opportue juncture. The entire negro lace 9
interested I'm seeing MIR. LanRston obtain his
seat in the Fifty.First Congress and all ef-
forts in this direction are commendabie.
Yes and there are number who
disagree with us. But we are for
the right. If Langston was elected,
and there is no doubt Of it, be
should be seated. Ii Mr.. MahoIe
opposed him because of his color we
should stand by him. There should
be no color line in politics.

We call the attention of our
readers to the address of Hon. J,
Willis MaDard, editor of the
Southern Leader. Mr.. Manard's
idea of the solution of the negro
question is migration. Mr.. Man
ard Ia wise aud judicious thinker
and there may be some truth in
what he says. Mr.. MaHard fur
ther says that there are some ne.
groes in the South who never see
u dollar, but are generally in debt
when the day of settlement COM
es.

and Presidential Electors under
Federal supervision; but none of
these acts would change the sem
timent of the Southern whites
respecting Negro suffrage Under
present conditions, it 10 silly to
talk about a free vote and q fair
count in the South.
A military interference and
special enactments have failed to
settle this race question, it would
seem unwise to try these experi-
ments again. There is one way
to avoid the impending difficulty,
and that is by general migration
of large portion Of the Negroes
into the northwestern and south
western sections of the Uuion.
This would relieve the cotton
section of their excessive Negro
population, where the price of
labor is kept down by the over
plus of laborers. The amount of
money proposed to be appropriate
ed by the Blair Educational Bill
and that of the Freedman's Bank,
had better be diverted to aid in
distributing a large portion of the
Negroes from the South. The
expenditure of SIS, 100000 would
be cheap solution of this vexed
problem.
Very Respectfully,
j. WILLIS MENARD,
Editor Of the "Southern Leader %
Jacksonville, Fla, Dec. %, 1888.

The dinner of Hon. w. G.

The dinner of Hon. w. G.
Whitney to President Cleveland
Tuesday, with Gov. David Hill,
of New York as guest, had a
great deal OF political significence
attached to it. 1t means that Gov.
Hill will be the democratic pomi-
nee for the presidency in 1892.
The democratic party is out OF
power to remain now, should the
republicans be defeated any time
soon it will be by some new par
ty unknown to the politicians of
this day.

Craftsman Journal Pal


Those persons who failed to hear
the lecture of Hon. b. x. Bruce, in
the Opera House, Friday night, lost
the opportunity of q life time. 1t
is marvellous to think that this now
talented and educated gentleman,
ex-U. S. Senator and ex. Register of
the U. s. Treasury, was once a
slave, just as were millions more of
his race, yet this is the fact. His
stage presence is magnificent; he
is impressive and eloquent. and en-
tirely free from rant q deep, musi.
Cal voice adds to the attractlyeness
Of the speaker but above and. be-
yond all is the subject matter of his
lecture, "The Race Problem.n He
handles the subject skillfully, with
out being in the slightest degree
vindictive, and not even giving
way to sarcasm in any reference to
the past or present condition of the
negro. He argues for education as
the only means of femancipating the
race from it's present condition, and
making it a valuable adjunct to the
civilization of thh future, rather
than the menance to good govern
ment that it must prove if left in
bonds of ignorance and illiteracy.
The lecture was q model of refine
ment throughout, with here and
there bit of chaseillustrati0n and
anecd0te that gave it . favor of hu

ed contsmpory the Petersburg
Lancet, that the editor of the BEE
has always had a high regard for
him, and if he were to believe all
that people say of MIN the BEE
would brand him a drunkard and
blackguard. The BEE is more gen.
erous than the editor of the Lam
Get, it dosen't believe all tha: the
people say. Some people say that
the editors partner is a forger; that
an indictment now rests against
him; that the editor can be always
found in the company ofsuch men.
Ne have more respect for our con-
tempory than to believe all of these
bad thugs said against him. So
far as we are concerned, we are
ready to apologize for any ipjus-
tice done to Mr.. Malone if he will
make an unequlvocai restraction of
certain published statements attri-
buted to him relative to drawing
the color line against Langston and
his recent utterances concerning
the colored mans aspirations for
high positions. We have always
admired Senator Malone, but we
cannot tolerate bis recent differences
to 60 unrebuked or condemned. Let
the Lancet request Mr.. Malone to
make a retraetion or denial and
he will find out that the colored
people are grateful.

TIE COMING EVENT.

On Friday evening next the pro.
posed Testimonial Concert and Ex.
hibltion Drill i'm honor OF Major
Fleetwood, will be held in Metro
politan A. M. z. Church.
In England it is one of the GUS
toms of the country to, as they ex-
press it, snake mp a purse" upon
any and all occasions tor one whom
il is desired to honor. This is done
whether the person to be honored
is a millionaire or pauper. 1t is
simply their mode of expressing
their appreciation.
When Miss Endicott, daughter
of the present Secretary OF War,
crossed the ocean the bride of Mr..
Chamberlain one Of the wealthiest
of Euglishmen, purse was made
up by the citizens and presented to
her on her arrival. In this country,
amoug our white citizens, it is COM
mon to show appreciation of their
singers and workers in various
fields of usefulness, by testimonial
concerts aud other substantial ex-
pressiOns.
Among us, this faculty has, un-
fortunately, not been properly cul-
tivated. We have been educated
rather with the idea that only
churches and charitable institutions
should receive such benefits, and
it matters not how meritoriOus and
useful may have been the acts of an
individual, and the good words to
be said of him and the good deeds
to be done for him must be reserv-
ed until he is in his coffin and be.
yond the reach of earthly aid.
We should change our views and
look and act in such matters just
as do other people of the globe.
We should let our public spirited
men and women know while living
that their laborS, their struggles +,
their successes are appreciated by
US,
1t is with such a spirit animating
them that the citizens of Washing
ton have rendered the proposed
testimonial to Major Fleetwood,
than whom no man in our midst
has labOred for the upbullding and
advancement of good causes with
greater energy aud upon broader
lines than he.
Though himself an Episcopa-
lian, all denominations have had
the service Of his labors and prac-
ticalIy benefited thereby. The
18th st. Presbyterian Church, St.
Augustine Church, 18th st. Bapt.
Church, Berean Bapt. Church, the
old Union Bethel Church on the
site of the present Metropolitan,
st. Mary's and st. Luke's p. E.
Churches have all been served by
him as occasion required and all
free of charge. In many instances
every performer in a concert con-
ducted by him has been paid for
their services but he has always
generously refused to accept any
compensation for his services.
In the Militia of the District, his
work is SO recent and its results so
obvious that it is unnecessary to
speak of it.
Now let the citizens of Washing.
ington and the congregations of
the churches for whom he has la
bored for twenty -one years without
other reward than thanks, come
forward and show their apprecia-
tion of his labors and pay the small
sum of twenty-five cents (only
about one cent year, for the sue
cess of this testimonial concert.
With the aggregation of talent and
the magnificent programme TO be
presented, every one will will re-
ceive three or four times the value
Of his money in addition to the sat
isfaction and pleasure their pres
ence will confer upon the benefc-

WASHINGTON SOCIETY.

Washington's celered society
has within it's bounds clubs and
clubs galore. Clubs for nearly
every conceiable object and for
the maintenance and perpetuation
of all the isms and ologies known
to modern times; church clubs
ostensibly organized to help the
church, but whose real purpose is
to beguile the unwary young man
into their fairs and festivals and
then proceed in q Systematic way
to dispoil him of his cigar and cig-
arctic money then turn him adrit't
into cold, cherries world. The
world knows from experience
whereof he speaks. Also social
clubs where brave and gallant
gentlemen and fair ladies meet
to exchange choice bits of scandal
and display elegant toilets. Din.
ing clubs whore epicures meet and
discuss the virtues of Diamond
tarripan and canvass back ducks,
and where connoisseurs in wine
grow eloquent over the qualities
of Moselle, Widow cliquot and
NUNS extra dry aud compare
notes as to it's age.
Croquet clubs, tennis clubs and
dancing clubs where youths and
maidens chase the hours with
flying feet. In point of fact there
are clubs of all kinds save one
and that is a dramatic club. The
writer has again and again asked
the question OF vsrions members
of that high coterie known as first
class society, why it was that
Washington with all of it's special
advantages and with a grade of
intelligence far above It's sister
cities, should be 50 far behind in
this particular thing.
They oil with one accord have
answered. "we don't know" and
the writer has sought All answer
to the question propounded and
like the others, has given 1t up.
The more intelligent class OF
colored people are theatre loving
people and can be found nightly
(and daily, too) at matinees wor-
shipping at the Thespian shrine,
where a Barret or Booth, az the
melancholy Dane, or crafty
Richelieu, hold forth, or where .
Davenport portrays with intense
force, the unhappy fate of the Lea
Tosca or preserving lighter vein,
laughs at the trials and mishaps
OF Golightlo as personatsd by
Goodwin.
Now, why is it that these, who
have an inmate love for the beau
tiful art, do not make an effort to
cultivate and develop that taste
for dramatic art that now lies DOR
mant in the breast of many an em
bryo Hamlet, Richard, Juliet aud
Rosamond and whose only oppor-
tunity to display that talent COM
es in the form of concerts, sacred
or secular, and finds an inglorious
censumation in declamations, reci-
tations end Dialogues that should
be religated back from whence
they came, to the school room.
Think of Miss Nahr displaying
her dramatic genius and ability in
Aux Italieus, or of Col. George
Arnold running to seed in the
Irish Volunteer; the length and
bredth of our dramatic attempts
begius and ends in these aforesaid
1ecitations, etc.
Aa appreciation of the fine arts
is a sure precureor of our growing
intelligence; and development of
that love and appreciation in what
ever direction it may tend either
to music, sculpture, painting or to
acting is a guarantee that we are
on the royal road to success from
an intellectual standpoint. The
