Chase, the Hot. Headed and Reversible
Negro Editor.

From the Petersburg, Va, Lancet" February
2, 1889.
The editor of the Washington Bee
had the Mysteries last week. He was
In the highest state of convulsions.
He had read what purported to be the
remarks of General Malone at Charles
ton. S. c., and without stopping to
discover whether they were truthfully
reported or not became violent-in-
sanely violent, and proceeded to char
acterize the distinguished Virginia Ex-
Senator AS a contemplate coward.
But this is not unlike Brother Chase.
He is notoriously known throughout
the country as "Chase, the hot-headed
and reversible Negro editor" He is
the only editor in the United States
who is so inconsistent as to praise and
abuse man in the same issue of his
paper. 1t IS related of Mr.. Chase, the
editor of the Bee, that on one occasion
when he called at the White House
and sought to get on good terms with
President Cleveland after having filed
his paper with abuse of that gentle
man, that the President listened to the
warm words of pt aise doled out by the
reversible editor and then drew from
his pocket the back numbers of the
papers containing the vile criticisms
and read them aloud for Chase's bene-
fit. IL is reported that the cheeky
.ewspaper man was covered with con-
fusion and it fiashed upon him for the
first ime that he had put himself IN
the deadly paral ell column attitude. 1t
may be that at some time III the NO
distant uture the eyes of the Washing
ton editor will stare again from the
mdsU of bis confusion while having
read to him by some distinguished man
the wOrus of abuse he now ~ ints in his
paper concerning the ablest and most
Influential Southern Republican.

A CORRESPONDENT of the Atlanta,
Ga, Constitution, writing from Felicity,
Ohio, is trying to show that much
trouble exists in that locality over
mixed schools, which he alleges was
brought about over the Arnett resolu-
tiOn, which was passed two or three
years Ego by the state Legislature
striking out the word ''white." Now
this correspondent has labored very
hard to make it appear that the intel
ngent and wise people of that partlcu-
lar locality In the State are wild with
rage, because few respectable colored
children are attending public school.
No one believes this correspondent,
except, perhaps, the prejudiced negro
haters of the South. Tie true way to
do away with prejudice and unite
American citizens in ali the varions
trades and industries in this country is
through mixed schools, the wisdom of
which will sooner or later be admitted
by all true Americans. Forty years
ago mixed schools were established in
Rochester. N. Y, making one public
school for all its citizens. This CON-
munlty ranks with any city in the
country and is far in advance Of many
for civilization, justice and enlighten-
ment.

COlored Republicans Of Virginia and
Maryland urge President Harrison
to appoint General Malone In

A committee of colored men from

in tue interest of General Malone for

pointed at the same Washington meet
ing that named the committee of white
Vlrginians that visited the President.
elect couple Of weeks ago to present
General Mahone's name. Mr.. Harris
acted as spokesman. and presented
General Harrison with a memorial set
ting forth what General Malone had
accomplished for his party In Vir-
ginia, irrespective OF color. Mr..
Adams also presented an engrossed ad-
dress from the Southern Republican
Association of Maryland, the largest
and wealthiest colored Republican or.
ganization in the country. H. was
signed by 250 of the most prominent
colored men Of Maryland, and strongly
recommended General Malone to the
consideration of the President.elect.
As colored men they asked nothing,
the color line was buried with them
and with their people; they presented
General Mahone's name as the man
who had built up and maintained the
only Republican organization they
ever had in Virginia. They returned
from General Harrison highly gratl-
fed with their reception. They said
the President-elect had many good
words for General Malone and that
his views on Southern matters, so far
as he expressed himself, met their
hearty appreciation. They did not
claim that General Harrison gave them
any encouragement.

Harrison is "All Right -

'The cOlored man will find in me a
true friend, and they ought to expect
the falrest treatment at my hands, and
they shall have it," The above are
words of President-elect Harrison to a
colored State Senator of Louisiana.
Good for General Harrisonl We need
the fairest treatment at the hands of
the most influential and prominent
forces Of the Nation. Unfair treat
ment has been the course towards us
all the way along since the pretense of
giving US freedom and equality before
the law was made by the amendments
to the Constitution. The appropriate
legislation to enforce the amendments
is yet to be made. In that legislation
will be found the fair treatment that
the cOlored men have by loyalty and
earnest endeavor to become good clti-
zens so richly deserve.
The words of General harrison
strengthen the hope Of the colored citi-
zens In the next Republican admins
tration. The treatment received by
colored citizens of the South makes
citizenship in this Nation valueless and
beneath the dignity of farce.
Through the suggestion and guidance
OF the Harrisons, the Chandlers, and
others of our party 1t IS to be hoped
that the rep zach to our nation, caused
by its long inability or lack of desire to
protect its own citizens in the enjov-
ment Of life, liberty and property, will
be cast out. Let it no longer be said
that this nation ls more potent in pro-
tecting Its citizens in a foreign land
than 1t is at home
1t Is gratifying to have the assurance
of fair treatment from the man who
will be the executive head of the Ma
tion for the next four years. We need
1t not only in the South, we need it
right here In Washington and through
ont the North. Let President Harri-
son In the District of Columbia see to
it that fair treatment IS accorded its
colOred citizens. Here. since the in
cumBency Of President Cleveland, un-
fair treatment of the negro has gained
an impetus altogether incompatible
with the idea of justice or equality
before the law. We must have fair
treatment In schools, fair treatment In
the distribution of benefits of taxes,
fair treatment in the selection of juries,
fair treatment by the police authorities
and the rights of citizens respected in
all public places. Such attempts as
are being made by Cleveland's pretend
ed Republican Commissioner to take
away our school houses because they
are felt to be too good for us by the
sympathizers with that sentiment fur
ther south that assassinates Republi-
cans. should be stopped at once upon
our party coming into power. Alto
gether the signs are propitious for the
acknowledgment ana protection Of the
full citizenship Of the negro in this
Nation.

THE shipment of oranges from this and
San Bernardino counties this year has
amounted to twenty-five hundred car
loads. The crop sold for about
81, 500, 600, which represents quite an in
crease over last year. The number Of
carloads shipped last year was 1900,
representing a value of about one and a
half million dollars. The crop next
year will show very marked increase
over this years. The scale is now being
disposed of rapidly, and the trees will
recover their normal vigor and bear as
abundantly as they used to do. With
the augmented number of new trees
coming into bearing. and the increase
in the production of the old trees, we
may confidently look for crop twice as
large as that we have had this year.
The orange will, from this time forth,
reassert itself as our leading revenue
producing staple.
