WHAT PEOPLE TALK ABOUT.
Views and Interviews Caught in Hotel
NISo Isn


Corridors and Elsewhere.
Allen o. Meyers, the well-known Cincin-
natl Enquirer man, was in Omaha yesterday
en- route to Denver and Leadville on mis-
sion Of charity and brotherly love. Mr.
Meyers is one of the most enthusiastic Elks
living, and edits the Social Session. In 1872
Charles Vivian, who did much towards
founding the order Of the Elks, died at Lead
vile, and there his remains rest in an un-
marked grave. He was an actor of con-
siderable renOwn, q mimic of great power.
and possessed an unusually fine voice. While
not an Elk himself, his memory is cherished
erosity of Boston lodge, assisted by Omaha,
his remains are to be eXhumed and
conveyed to the former city for
final interment IN the Elks burying ground.
For this purpose Mr. Meyers is going to
Leadville. For the past ten days he has
been investigating the workings of prohibi-
tion in Iowa under instructions of the En-
quirer TO write series OF letters on the
versaton with Mr.. Meyers he referred to the
political situation in Ohio, and observed that
both partieS are organizing their forces and
laying the ropes for senatorial contest that
promises TO be more desperate and bitter
than anything of the kind ever known.
Meyers is a democrat, and, of course, gives
his attention to the movements of republican
leaders, therefore he talked only of what may
be expected TO occur and Wnat his kind OF
people hope will occur in the repub-
lica party. ''The main fight" said
he" will be waged between Foraker and
Mckinley, who have been enemies for sew
eral years. Both Of them aspire to the SEN
ate. Sherman is getting old and wants
to retire. He and hIs friends will support
Mckinley, and they will do everything in
their power to defeat Foraker The latter
Is backed by strong ring, known as the
machine, in Cincinnati, so between the two
factions, disinterested parties think they see
an opportunity for some very lively and in

Can't Gull the workinpmen

OMAHA, April 13.-To the Editor Of The
BEE: l notice that your friend Hitchcock has
made himself very busy for the last two
weeks about the delay in the location of the
postofhce. He pretends you are chiefly to
blame because there is not more work for
laboring men in the city. notice that every
time he prints one of his interviews with
Rosewater he ends it up by begging us
to stop THE BEE to punish
you for keeping the workingmcn
out in the cold. This is awfully thin cruel
TO iced Workingmen on, when he tells us in
the same article that you have mortgaged
yourself for 500, 900 to put up THE BEE build
ing, which ! happen TO know has kept over
one hundred mechanics employed all winter,
months yet. For my part, don't consider
man who brings 100000 of borrowed capital
to Omaha and puts it into building,
in addition to his money, an enemy of labor.
What's become Of the half million dollar
hotel which Hitchcock was going to build
for Omahai And what has become of all the
great prospects which he has been blowing
workingman's friend, when he has been
trying to squeeze whole days work
Sunday Fizzle without paying them
for over time. In my opinion, it is all bosh
about this postofficc talk, gotten up by Hitch.
cock to raise the wind and give himself some
air.
If Hitchcock would build something
himself and pay his own w0rkingmen what
they they are entitled TO he might be able to
work up some patronage. But SO long as he
Is trying 10 puu himself up by pulling man
down who has done everything he could for
labor, we take no stock IN him. J. l..

DRAWING THE COLOR LINE.
The Virginia Episcopal Council Exclude
Negroes from Church Government.

Many cOlored persons attended yesterdays
session of the Virginia Episcopal council, at
Lynchburg. Bishop White read his annual
report, showing the number of combinations
and the deacons and presbyters ordained. The
most interesting portion of his address was in
regard to the color question.
The Episcopal church, he said, was an ideal
government by the people, and should only
be in the hands of people possessing proper
training for the great responsibility. He was
opposed to clothing people with authority who
had no such training. The question of the
negro was not one of race or color, but of
ability and capability, and while there were
exceptions among the race, the great body
were not capable of dealing intelligently with
questions of church government. The line of
duty of the white people was to teach, train
and give them helping hand for their sake
and for the sake of Christ. After reading this
address, which was received with favor, the
various standing committees were announced
for the year.
When the color question was reached after
the secretary had read canon thirteen, DIR. j.
s. Hanekle, chairman of the special COMMITTEE
took the floor and gave history of the matter
from the beginning of the agitation, in 1885. to
the present day, and he urged the council to
pass article three as it stood and not prolong
the agitation further.
capt Charles VI. Blackf0rd. Dr. j. III. Norton
Mr.. +. Mcclure, of Richmond. and Mr.. Joseph
Bryan, of Richmond, spoke in the same direc-
ton.
Rev. Arthur Lloyd, Of Richmond, was op-
posed to separating the races in the church.
and was in favor of not only admitting some
but ALL if God willed it, into the council
DIR. Jones, of Richmond. quickly asked:
would you admit negroes promiscuously into
your congregation?'
Mr.. Lloyd am in favor of admitting
colored man to my level if he is capable of such
position.
DIR. Jones-Then, 1 understand that you
answer i'll the affirmative?
Mr.. Lloyd do. sir.
Something of sensation was created here by
DIR. Jones starting to put question of social
equality, which was drowned by protests from
other members of the council.
Rev. DIR. Newton declared that the negro had
not been oppressed, and showed what had been
done for them by white people, He was in
favor of endorsing the canon as it stood, and
no longer delay action.
DIR. Jones here arose and apologiZed for the
question he had asked Mr.. Lloyd which he
said. was due to the excitement of the moment
After a long and animated debate a vote was
taken on the color question, and resulted in
the adoption OF the proposed change in the
constitution presented at previous meeting of
the council. The vote stood: Clergy-yeas 81
nays 40. Laity-yeas 70, nays g. Total-yeas
l2i, nays 63.
This action excludes the negro from the
church government.
