HON. FRANK HUME.

There is no man in the State of
Virginia more respected than
Hon. Frank Hume. He is to-day
the peoples representative and
no better man could be elected to
Congress to succeed Lee. The
question has been asked will he
be elected? There is no reason
why that he should not be and
there are several reasons why that
he should be.
1st. lie is a good hearted man
that alone entities him to the suf-
frages of the 8th Virginia District
voters.
End. He is a representative
man, such a man the Stu Virginia
voters have not in Congress at
this time.
Srd. He is an honest man.
such men are what we need in
Congress. We need men who
will look out for the Interests OF
the people and that man is Mr..
Hume.
4th. He should receive the
unanimous vote of the Repubh>
can party, although, be is dem
ocrat, he should receive the undi-
vided colored vote because he is
the colored mans friend. He
knows no man by his color nor
condition.
We have briefly stated some of
the reasons why Mr.. Hume should
be elected to Congress from the
8th Congressional district of Vir-
ginia 1t is left with the people
whether they want such man as
we have above described. We
are confident that Mr.. Hume is
the man and without him the
people have no representative.
We advise all loyal voters and
citizens of the 6th District to give
their support to a man who will
honor the District and the State
of Virginia.

GIVE 1T TO SMITH.

Our esteemed contemporary the
Detroit PLaindealer, with a grim
humor that is "child- like and
bIand,' suggests that Smith of the
Gazette might be made chief OF
the Afro American Department
of the Worlds exposition. Smiths s
prospect for getting the place is
evidently based upon the idea
tba: nobody else will have it, for
the PLaladeaLer and all the world
beside know that if any one of
else desired the place, Smith
would have as much chance for it
as he now has of going to heaven
should he die IN his present God
hating-devil loving condition.
Smith has been a candidate for
everything that has turned up
for the last ten years, from enroll
ing clerk of the Ohio Legislature
10 janitor of a public building,
but he has always been defeated.
The only Office that he has ever
been able to get is that OF Deputy
Coal Oil Inspector, from which,
we are informed, he realizes the
princely sum of one hundred dol
lars year. What a lucrative
position. While other men have
achieved honorable success, Smith
has spent his time in throwing
mud at them; and this is the
result.
We hope the management in
view of Smiths lnisfortunes will
make some provisions for him
it only that of floor sweeper.
1t would be a recognition Of his
services. But we fear that the
PlaindeaLer and the BEE will be
his only supporters.

REV. GRIAIKIE'S MISTAKE.

The resignation Rev. Francis
Grimkie as a member of the
School Board for the District of
Columbia was a surprise to many.
Rev. Grimkie undoubtedly made
a mistake in resiguing; he ought
to know that the people of George
town are as much entitled to a
school house as the people are in
the northern section of the city.
The school that the Commission
ers decided upon is to take the
place of the dilapidated Chamber
lin building and if that is the
case the Commissioners were
right in reversing the action of
the Board of School Trustees and
Rev. Grimkie's mistake is, in re-
signing because the Commission
ers decided against him. The
people of West Washington have
been Disseminated against long
enough and we congratulate Mr..
Douglass for the timely revoca-
tion of the action of Trustee F. J.
Grimkie and we sincerely hope
that none of the old ring will be
re-appointed again on the school
board.

THE BOGUS LEAGUE,

The alleged "Republican Lea
que" of Alexandra, Co, with
Magnus L. Robinson at It's head
will have no weight with the ke~
publican voters nor will Hon.
Frank Hume be injured in the
least by the candidacy Wm. Car
ter. The politicians understand
this movement and if Magnus l..
Robinson and his Doodle followers
think that they can draw any in
telligent colored voter from Mr..
Hume, they are mistaken. The
most ignorant voter in the 9Th
Virginia District knows the po~
litical record of the Roblnsens
and their so-called league. Let

THE PURPUSE OF THE SOUTH

The red shirt gentry who are
running the constitutional conven.
vention in Mississippi with a SIM
gle Negro member as a stool pi-
geon will find that after they have
completed their nefarlous work OF
disfranchising $4,000 colored
voters that there is still cone
more river to cross" The ques-
tion will have to be settled wheth-
er Mississippi has a republican
form. of government; whether
she has not violated the funda-
mental conditions upon which
she was readmitted into the union.
The people Of this country are not
prepared to see the franchise thus
withdrawn from loyal citizens on
the score of color. They know
that if successful in Mississippi,
the infamous schme will be resort
ed to in Louisiana, Tex, Alabama
South Carolina, and probably in
other slave states.
The condition of the colored
people of the South Is deplora5le.
By fraud, intimidation and mur-
der they have for years been de
MED the exercise aud enjoyment
of both their civil and political
rights. But men have been in
clined to excuse these outrages
upon the ground that the South
was passing through a state of
transition and that these irregu-
larities, outrages and murders
would soon be a thing Of the past,
and that then the South, realizing
that it was grinding IFS own seed
corn and consuming is own Wit
als, would call a halt. How sadly
they have been mistaken in their
of Southern temper; let
the work of the red-shirters Of
Mississippi answer. These con-
spirators against free government
have thrown off their masks, and
the country sees them just as
they are.

DON'T WANT 1T.

The indianapolis Freeman In a

Hon. b. K, Bruce, as the most
available man to be placed at the
head of that portion of the Worlds

of tie coIored people should be
assigned, in the event that such
separate exhibition should be
deemed judicious. The BEE
promptly seconded the motion.

. a .lers. Bcodlers are q
class of men who are continually
looking for something to sell.
They will either sell themselves
or their party. The 9Th Congress
siousI District of Va, is full of
inst snch men. The alleged bood-
lie Republican League under the
leadership of a few pusillanemous
politicians have put one W. A.
Garter in the field against Mr..
Hume. Carter is we'll known in
Alexandria city and county but,
not so well known throughout the
District. He is the candidate of
Magnus L. Robinson and who is
it that doesn't know Robinson?
lie is political acrobat. He is
first on one side and then on the
other side. Carter was nomiuat-'
ed by this Doodle League; the
League is so-called Republican
club that only exists in mans
mind. By the way Carter is
shoe maker by trade, but, he gen
orally throws down bis awle
about the beginning of every
campaign, and never takes it up
until the canvass is ended. Car
ter is for sale, who wants him?
If the friends Mr.. Hume will
take our advice they will not
bother one moment about Carter,
Robinson or any of his gang.
