WHAT is BEING SAID OF US

By far the most damaging artI-
Gle that has appeared lately In any
first class publication concerning
the Afro American, is that in the
April number of the North Ameri-
can Review. This magazine has
the reputation of being fair and
non partisan, ready and willing to
accord all sides a hearing on pub
lie questions. But as is usually
the case when the Afro American
is involved this reputation for fair
ness is undeserved. 1t seems to be
the settled policy of the present
publishers to allow the misrepre-
sentations, false statements and the
igorance of these prejudiceC writer's
men, and women too, who by
their policy of isolation know lit; le
or nothing of the real progress of
the race-to stand upon the pages
of this once fair. famed magazine
uncontradicted, unanswered aud
disproved. Every Intelligent col
ored man and every Observant
white man knows that such whole
sale statements as have appeared
in this publication are not tue to
the degree alleged. Some things
said and written about us are, alas
too true.
We are perfectly willing to have
the truth told of US. That can do
no harm. 1t will do good.
1t is because of the former repu.
tation for fairness which this maga.
zine has enjoyed that these hostile
articles containing just enough
Truth to make the whole palatabIe,
that they are so damaging to us.
People will soon get the idea that
what is not answered in the North
American Review cannot be
answered. These articles ought to
be answered and by an Afro-Ameri-
can, who is in tune with our feel
ings. The answer should be calm,
free from feeling, argumentative
and not abusive.
These little attacks are no doubt
melted by political considerations.
1t seems to be but part of a policy
to stultify the conscieHces of the
great republican party on the ques-
ton of "free ballot and a fair

DEMOCRATIC PRIMARIES

Notwithstanding the opposition,
made to the plan suggested by the
editor of this paper, to establish a
system of primary elections in
this city, of the Carson faction,
which was defeated, the idea be-
came popular among the district
democrats and they too followed
or adopted similar plans to elect
their delegates to a convention
held by them. 1t is, indeed, the
only method 10 adopt whereby the
people can be allowed to express
themselves at the pills.
1t is the only method by which
the will of the people can be ex-
pressed.
The BEE extends congratuIa-
tions to the district democracy,
not that it believes in the demo-
cratic party, but, that the very
plans that was inaugura'ed by the
republicans were ad 'pted by The
democratic party of this city.
The republicans can feel highly
congratulated to know that their
primary elections were more or.
derly than the democratic,

verted in the execution. A law
becomes void when the men to

are recreant to their trust, are ln-

Do we love our country? We
love Justice. Does our country
exercise an eternal vigilance IN
seeing that we get ? Hardly.
Surrounded as We are by lntiu-
ences calculated to render as more
sensible to the prescription, the
Determinations against US, we are
not likely to improve in our tenn er

with patriotic pride when My

For ages past the mind has beer

Of mothers and fathers mot only

You may look at the animal, ,

tally the one raised 10 the country
where it is at liberty to run and

1t is true that we cannot as a

THEY WANTED A CHANGE

The democratic nominating con.
vention was anything but har-
monious gathering. The repubIi-
can press will be more fair than the
democratic press has been, by ssy-
ing that there was a war of words
just as is found in any hot contest
While the BEE had no particu-
lar interest in any of the candi,
dates, it must be conceded that
the district democrats are like the
district republicans, they wanted
a change.
A most distinguished audience
assembled in Albaugh's opera
house Thursday which is an evil
dence that the democrats are re-
forming as we'll as the republicans.

The only difference between a
white and black man is that the
white man has more money than

steal enough to be honered after

SUFFRAGE IN THE DIS.
TRICT.

There is no reason q,
the I'd North Carolina district, he
has made record which should
be applauded by the people of biz
state.
The editor Of this paper has had
but little association with Mr.
Cheatham, but, he knows him
well, and be is kept informed oi
what he does for his constituents
by those he has aided.
A circular letter was received
by the editor of this pa er few
weeks ago, from Mr.. j. A. Rob
bins, whose father Mr.. Cheathsm
had appointed TO one of the post
offices in the % Congressional
district, informing his friends that
he is a candidate for Congress to
succeed Mr.. Chestham. The cir.
cular when received, surprised the
editor of this paper. especially
after being informed by MIR. Rob,
bins, while in this city, that Con-
gresham Cheatham had done SO
much for him. Information now
reaches Us that Robbins is attack
ing and abusing Mr.. Cheatbam be-
cause he, Robbins, was not provid>
ed with a place while in this city.
At that time Robbins had made
a cowardly and bitter newspaper
attack on Mr.. VIM. Outlaw, who
has since succeeded young Rob-
bins father as postmaster, which
ls another reason why young
Robbins desires to succeed Mr..
Cheathsm.
Mr.. Cheatham was not re-
sponsible for the removal Of
Mr.. Robbins as postmaster, it was
his own fault and it is well known
that Mr.. Cheatham called, in per-
son, on Genl. Wannemaker to fix
up matters 10 the satisfaction of
the postmaster general, but it
could not be done. Mr.. Cheat
ham had either to select another
man or lose the office, the result
was Mr.. Outlaw was appointed.
In regard to the younger Robs
bins, he came to the city from
North Carolina and be was not
here but a few days before Con-
gresham Cheathsm had him ap-
pointed in the Government Print.

not very long before Mr.. Robbins
