1t is an interesting fact that during
the school election in bloomington, H.,
where more than thousand women
voted, the women opposed the re-elect-
ton of Miss Raymond, who had been
for many years Superintendent of City
Schools, and who had always given
women the preference in appointing
teachers. The opposition claimed that
co-education demands co-educatng
faculties. The women considered that
having but two men on the list OF city
school teachers was almost as great a
mistake as having but two women
would be.

The Woman's Rest Tour association
Is society of women who, having
made the trip across the Atlantic and
discovered that foreign travel was
much easier and cheaper than is gener.
ally known, resolved TO offer sclf-dc-
pendent women the result Of their eX-
periencc. The associat ton AS organized
was one of the simplest form, exacting
no fees, and making the only condi-
ton OF membership that the traveller
should, in return for benefits received,
give to the society any information she
might obtain on the trip that could be
of use TO other travellers. Now that a
more definite organization has been
effected, the membership has been
placed at 81, and the privileges In
clude advice concerning best methods

occasionally to assist, either by gift on

RACE REPRESENTATIVES.

The time has come for all bick-
ering and misrepresentation of the
races representatives to cease.
There is 10 race upon this globe
in which there is so much jealousy
and prejudice. Of course when a
man endeavors 10 misrepresent
the race by arrogating to himself
the power or authority to lead
without being given such power
or authority 1t then becomes nee
esssry to speak and correct, if
possible, such false representa-
ton.
There are no two men within
the negro race more entitled 10
the respect and confidence of the
people than Messrs. Bruce and
Lynch. This paper is no more
the champion of these men
than any other race jour-
nal. The BEE has always been
on the side of the oppressed and
at the same time give some con-
sideration to the races representa-
tives. 1t is true that there are
hundreds of young men coming
to the front who are aspiring TO
leadership, and quite a number of
them fear that the old and tried
representatives are in the way.
This country is a large one and
there is enough space in it, sufici-
emily large enough, for every man
who may aspire TO occupy space.
Leaders are born not made, and
it is IN bad taste for every pot
house politician to presume, be-
cause be has a local following,
that be is a leader.
There are men within the race
who are fast advancing and at no
distant day, if they don't blunder,
will be placed upon the topmost
round of the ladder.
No one can take from Frederick
Douglass the lsurals that he has
won; no one can deprive the great
Price of North Carolina, of his
power of eloquence; any more
than you can make men who want
to be leaders and have not the
elements of leadership.

Yes, and it was the vote of the
republican party that emancipated
the negroes of this country and
when the negroes could not aid
themselves the white republicans
gave helping hand.
The same party that saved
President Harrison is the same
party that emancipated over four
millions of slaves. The BE has
heard of animals that are called
- but, it never knew that a
human being could write himself
The editor of the Monit0r would
have the negroes vote the demo

because the republicans can not
protect him against democratic
outrages that party should not be

PRESIDENT HARRISON the other
day appointed DR.. W. D. Crum
postmaster at Charleston, s. G.
whereupon the rebel democracy
proceeded to kick up the usual
row against negro officers de-
nouncing the appointment as one
unfit to be made, but at the same
time could find nothing against
the appointee to which objection
could be made but his race iden-
tity. Let them fuss and tume
