The wives of the District pastors
will pay their respects to eaeh
other at the conference on Monday

New year receptions and calls
were the life joys of the day. The
day was bright, brilliant and cheer
full and the entire community
| seemed disposed to look and act
the same. Little or no disorder
prevailed, and strong drinks in
comparison to previous years were
begged off because SO few wished
it. We tender our best wishes tt
our readers for their happy new
year, and to the ministry.

NOT A CANDIDATE.

Some smart eleck has been boom
ing Senator b. K. Bruce for the
the cabinet and declares that the
votc of this country will devlde
if the Senator is not appointed.
We desire to say first, that Sena-
tor Bruce is not a candidate Tor
any official position under the
administration of Mr. Harrison
We don't say that the Senator
would refuse one nor would we
say that the Senator would accept
a position. We do say, however,
that If any position is offered him,
it must be one that would warrant
him to give up his lectures
Again, Senator Bruce has author
lied no one to urge him for any
position and he doesn't thank any
one for making these false state'
ment5.

as a barrier against the race and

upon the great necessity of acquir-

the race problem would solve it

Grafton, with closed ranks and a
solid front to the enemy, march
boldly forward to victory and
complete liberty. Whenever and
wherever a man of the race was
engaged in an honest contest in
volving the political and clvi
rights of the negro, it was ar
imperitive duty to sink persona
differences and stand united BY
the principles involved until the
victory was won.
The oration was couched in tha
elegance of language for which
Mr.. Pulies is noted; it was i'm
pressively delivered and canno
fail in accomplishing much il
encouraging the race in it's des'
perate upward struggle.
The Washington bee., 1889-01-05
GENERAL HARRISON.

There is no man in this country
more perplexed at this time than
Genl. Harrison. But We have con-
fdence enough in him to know
that he is capable to select cabi.
net that will meet the approval
of the entire republican party. /;
is hoped, hover, if Mr.. = Harrison,
is consulting the representatives
of the white race, that he will con-
sent such men Of our race as Ex-
Register. Bruce, Hon. John Lynch
and Prof. Lsngston, who have
the respect and confldence of the
American negro, relative To the
wants of our people. While it is
our desire to have a representative
In the cabinet, We can truthfully
say that the colored race will be
satisfied if Mr.. Harrison, will as
sure protection, uuder the cousti~
tuition of our government.
The Washington bee., 1889-01-05

We want it distinctly under

lican organization IN the country
and that the John Sherman Lea

of government patronage for the
colored citizens than received
heretofore. His objects most SER

not supporting the republicans as a

RULES FOR VISITING THE
SICK.
EIemer Sun.

EIemer Sun.
1. Whenever you go to see
sick person never take a brass
band; brass bands are more or less
expensive. If, however, you take a
brass band with you, let each map
play different air, finishing up
with "ram O'Shanter" on the
brass drum. 1t is best to have this
executed in the room directly un-
derneath the sick chamber.
2. Always ring the bell as thou
gh you were trying to pull the
back yard out by the roots. Con-
tinue this until you get seven or
eight engines playing on the hou-
Sc.
3 Ifyou can't get up by the
front way, either knock outa win
dow. or 60 up on to the roof by
the lightning rod. The latter plan
will enable you, if the house is a
frame one, to kick all the boards
loose and proved a matinee for
those in the house. After you
have reached the roofif you hav-
emit strangled yourself with pro-
family, cough up your false teeth
and yell down the scuttle for a step
ladder.
4. Always bear a cheerful counte-
nance. If you go into sick room
looking like thirty-five cent
chrome of a Shawnee cemetary, it
will be apt to throw damper on
