from the Congressional investigation
committee
These things make President Harrison
weary. He has done what he could to
repress and suppress these scandals, but
he has not the courage to dismiss the
men who made or permitted the scandals
The President allowed Noble to dis
miss Tanner when he should have dis
missed Noble. Tanner was not as bad as
Raum. Noble struck down Tanner, wac
was only foolish TO set up Raum, who is
dishonest.
The President sees, feels and laments
all Of these things, but, because Of a
superstition about not changing his
Cabinet, he is trying to bear the Ills witt
a Christian foFtitude that should have I
better cause.

To the Editor OF the EVENING JOURNAL.
SIR; In conversation with Republi-
can tie other day was surprised to hear
him say that the colored man had enough
offices at present because too rapid ad-
vancement had the tendency to demoral-
lie them. It should not surprise
enc, however when you come to think
Of It, to hear this from a member
Of a party whO deny them equal oppor-
,unity and wages when employed with
white ment Is IL not fact that the
largest employers OF labor in this city
and neighborhood are Republicans and
they seem to be Of the same opinion as
my friend2 l was informed by an intel
ligent colored man lately that the aver
age wages OF the colored men Of the few
so employed, Is pst over SO to
81 per week, and that constant
efforts have been made TO OBJ Jain EN-
ployment for colOred girls in the mills
and shops where girls are employed. bat
without success Is 1t any wonder then
that the Twilight" should ask for fair
show of the political plums from the
party which relies upon the colored votes
solely for any political victory which
they have or ever hope TO obtain IN this
state and county, With their solid vote
the colored people should be entitled TO
large share of the nominations to
elective offices to which they choose to
aspire aud are capable Of filling, at least
they should put their good friends 60 the
test of how far their friendship viii go.
