TOPEKA's SCHOOL BOARD.

The BLACKMAN takes great pride
in commencing the action Of the Board
of Education at its meeting last Thurs
day night when the following resolu-
ton was unanimously carried:
Resolved, "That in the appointment
of teachers for the public schools in
the coming school year, no white
teachers be appointed to positions in
any of the public schools
This means four vacancies, to be
filed by colored teachers. For some
time past leading colored men, having
the interest of their race at heart,
have contended that colored teachers
be given the places in the colored
schools, held by white teachers. TIE
result of their efforts is apparent.
True they have had to encounter
many things, overcome much opposi-
ton and inumerable difficulties, But
the prevailing power of right is made
manifest wherever truth and Justice
are the ends pursued. The Board OF
Education deserves universal com

continued in office for years, and last
though by no means least. he has
shown that the color Of a mans skin
does not reduce his respect for him,
nor diminish his chances for recog-
milton. AS chairman Of the county
central committee, Mr.. Jetmore vol.
UNFAIRLY appointed Dennis Hope, of
the Fifth Ward, one Of the respect
Ell citizens Of Topeka and a represent.
alive Of the Negro race, member of
the executive committee Of that body.
This was only position OF honor, but
it shows which way the wind blows.
The Jetmore family are practical in
their friendship for the Negro. A. B.
Jetmore, father Of Aaron, was pres
ident Of the Freedman's Relief Asso-
citation, which relieved the suffering of
Of 50 many Of our race who landed in
this state in '82, and for more than
eighteen months his services were
given free. These are things which
the true man can not forget. These
are the friends which the Negro is in
need Of. These are the men that
merit our support.
The other candidate, III. @. Saffard,
while good man, sound republican,
has not shown that friendly disposition
toward the Negro which has characters
lied the Jetmore's. He has served in
the legislature, but record fails to
show any action on his part which
materially benefited the Negro. He
is at present county attorney and
many votes we're cast by Negroes with
the understanding that representa-
tive of their race should be appointed
deputy county attorney, but the hops
was vain. What have the Negro to
hope for in the event that Safrod is
renominated? What has be done for
them? What can he do for them?
Voter, ask yourself these questions
and when you 90 to the primaries on
the 18th, cast your vote for A. P.
Jetmore for county attorney.

Gated in the ABOVE quotation. A
split forever in the colored vote,
should mean something more and
come from some greater cause than
the mere appointment of one of our
race to office. Taylor has been re-
warded for his services to the demo-

distinction. But when it comes to
pass that the Negroes head is to be
swelled and turned by every political
whirlwind that rises, then truly is ne
unfit for self government.

The Coxey movement has not
affected the Negro to any great ex-
tent as yet. And we are heartily
glad of it. The great majority of
these "wealers" are nothing; if not
professional tramps. Those that can
not be classified as such are no doubt
hard working men with honest mo-
tives. Nevertheless they are the same
class of mechanics that have organized
the world over to shut out the colored
mechanic. And now that distress if
not actual starvation stares them 10
the face they should be allowed to
derive all the benefit Cf such a con
dition free and untrammeled by the

mentation for its action. It was a
defiant step in the direction of pro-
gress and bold stroke in the behalf
of the many young colored teachers
who have long been kept out of en-
ployment by unfair discrimination.
THE BLACKMAN sincerely hopes that
the good work SO nobly begun will
continue, and that the places to be
filled be given to capable and deserv-
ing young men and women and not to
Objectionable beings, wholly without

WE THINK NOT.

ONE over-zelous admirer of G.. II.
j. Taylor, gets off the following ID
his wild endeavor to say something
commendable: Allow me to con-
gratulate. 1t means a split forever in
the colored vote" Admitting Taylor
to be the great man, from leader and
worthy democrat that has been claim
ed for him, we fail to see wherein his
appointment and confirmation to the
Office Of Recorder of Deeds has any
bearing whatever upon the colored
vote. One thing is certain, the Z. S.
Senate, over whelmingly democratic,
did not endorse President Cleveland's 8
appointment of Taylor until absolute
ly forced to. The word force may
seem strange and perhaps too strong.
Nevertheless it is a fact, The pre-
sstent energy of Taylor, the indomit-
able courage of the President, the
loud, strong and earnest appeal of the
leading colored men, of every party
and from every quarter, proved too
strong and unconquerable for the cold
apathetic and utterly Indifferent SEN
ate. Had the democratic party been
fair in its dealings with the Negro
and unprejudiced in their consider
alton of his interests, there would
have been no need nor occasion for

has been a candidate for any county
office, He has been repeatedly soli-
cited by his friends to become cam
didate for county attorney, but up to
this time has seen fit to decline. Mr..
Jetmore is able, learned and of high
integrity, and if selected by the re-
publican primaries as candidate for
county attorney, will make an able
canvass and be triumphantly elected.
His friends throughout Shawnee
county are pressing his claims vigor-
ously and predict his nomination by a
handsome majority. Mr.. Jetmore
married the eldest daughter of Justice
Brewer of the United States supreme
court at Washington, and has two
children. He resides with his family
on Woodlawn avenue,
