DELEGATE CONTEST,

There seems to be some doubt
among the politicians as to who
will be the strongest and best man
to represent the republican party
from this city in the next national
convention.
The BEE has printed a list of the
gentlemen who have been men
toned as candidates, and as an in
ducement to make this contest in-
teresting, the BEE will present a
fine gold headed cane to the candi-
date who receives the highest num-
Der Of coupons. The coupons will
be received and counted bv the con-
test editor, and all coupons will be
kept and counted in the presence
Of committee to consist of one
friend from each candidate.
Each coupon will count one vote,
which must be sent to the contest
editor Of the BEE.

FOR PRESIDENT
WILLIAM MCKINLEY, JR.,
OF OHIO.
OUR SCHOOLS.

As the school vacation draws to a
close, the politicians and dissatisfied
school trustee candidates file their
petitions with the District Commits
sioners requesting change in the
personelle Of the trustee board Of
the public schools.
There seems to be more conten-
ton among the colored element than
any other class of people.
Let us review calmly the qualifi-
cations Of some Of the applicants for
trustee Of the colored schools of this
city. In the first place, what is re-
CURED of school trustee?
Some have an idea that the only
qualification necessary is the selec-
ton Of teachers.
A school trustee should be able to
enter any school and examine a
teacher or 2 pupil. He should be
able to prepare questions for exami-
nation, not only for teachers, but
for pupils in the school.
He should be able to tell whether
a teacher is examining pupil cor
rectly in an examination, and in
form a child where the north pole
is situated, if he should be asked.
Again, a trustee should be morally
qualified.
1t is surprising to the people and
we know it viii be more surprising
to the Commissioner to know that
there are candidates for appoint
ment on the school board whose
morals are corrupt and whose appli-
cations should not be given the
slightest consideration.
A teacher, by all means, should
have a moral trustee over her.
In years gone by such was the con-
dition of our schools that young la
dies who were too poor to give money
were compelled to sacrifice their
honor. These charges were made
by the BEE to the Commissioners,
and we are confident that Commits
sioner Ross, who has the care and
supervision Of our schools, will see
to it that proper men are appointed
on the school board.

SUPPORT OF NEWSPAPERS.

The time has come indeed it has
long since come-when the colored
people should learn to support their
own newspapers. The uncertainty
of the support of white newspapers
on vital issues renders this only the
more important, because we have
observed that more than once our
white friends have been silent when
to have been outspoken would have
been Of great assistance to the race.
1t has been but a few years since
two new papers have sprung up in
our midst. The Times and the
News started with the greatest OPP
position and under apparently the
most unfavorable circumstances, vet
they seem to be growing in useful
ness every day. This is because the
whites will support their newspapers
and render them substantial aid in
time Of need. AS a consequence the
Times has become a bold, newsy,
and interesting paper, growing in
usefulness and power every day.
Almost the same may be said of the
News and other white papers in our
city.
Were the colored people as loyal
in their support of colored papers
as the whites are, we could indeed
boast of a paper which would be
felt the country over and which

Champion Now.
Washington, Aug. 27.-The Evening
Star says: sit is believed that Sena-
tor Brice will appear in new role in
the Senate this winter. He has al
ways been classified with the anti
Cleveland set. Now, it is said, he will
De recognized as the Senate champion
IF the administration. The tariff ques-
ton out Of the way, there appears no
special difference of view between him
and the President.
1T is said that it was popular false
impression, rather than any feeling on
the part of the Ohio Senator, which
heretofore kept him apart from the ad-
ministration. At the Chicago conven-
ton Brice was opposed to Cleveland S
nomination, but, 1t is said by his
friends, that he has never been an
tagonistic to the administration since.
1t is pointed out that during the extra
session of the Fifty-third Congress he
worked with skill and energy for the
repeal Of the silver purchasing law.
He was working for the same thing
that Mr.. Cleveland was, and, it is
said, made several tentative moves to
get into the confidence of the admins
tration.
For some reason Mr.. Cleveland did
not seem to appreciate the value of the
Ohio Senator being called into council,
and Mr. Brice continued to work on his
own independent lines, still being pub
licly classified as an anti-administra-
ton Democrat. It is claimed for him
that as a free lance he did valuable
service for the administration cause
which was not recognized. He stood
out very firmly aginst any compromise.
and much credit is claimed for him in
the overthrow Of the famous Faulkner
compromise.

In the first place, Mr.. Bradshaw
will not be elected in his own dis

Rochester, Aug. N.-George W. AL
political power In Rochester Republi-
can caucuses were held last night In the
city, and M. W. Lewis, the man who.
he announced month ago, was his
candidate for Mayor, was defeated by
tremendous majority. Lewis only OBJ
in three wards out Of the twenty in the
city. There rarely has been g more
crushing defeat in the city. Aldridge
week ago saw the coming storm, and
also that Hiram II. Edgerton, promi-
nent Republican Of the city, would prob
ably be the successful candidate for
Mayor. He then announced that he
would not oppose Edgerton. and en-
deavored to make people think that he
had favored him secretly from the be-
ginning Of the canvass. These repre-
sensations made most of the Republi-
can politicians Of the city laugh.
Mr.. Edgerten, apparently. has Sc
cured the delegates from thirteen and
a half Of the wards Of the city. This In
sures his nomination for Mayor. Ex-
Mayor Curran, who also was a candi-
date for Mayor, carried only three and
a half wards. Lewis, the stmon-pure
Aldridge candidate, carried, az stated,
only three wards. The returns Of one
ward, up to midnight, had not been re-
ceived.
The nomination Of Mr.. Edgerton will
be triumph for the better element of
he Republican party in the city. Many
members of this element are friends of
Aldridge, but they would not follow
him when he proposed that Lewis
should be nominated. Lewis had been
he Aldridge leader in the Board of AL
lermen of Rochester He was univer-
sally recognized as merely a register
ing instrument for Aldridge's DEGREES.
The leading Republicans of Rochester
saw that no man of this type could be
elected Mayor Of Rochester the present
year, when there is such popular ris-
ing against Boss Plat and other
posses.
They therefore brought forward Mr..
Edgerton as a candidate. He is a build
such independence of character that
every one understands that he will not
De the servant of Aldridge as Mayor.
While Mr. Edgerton may not be direct
y hostile to Aldridge, he will be his own
master, and therefore his election as
Mayor will much weaken the Aldridge
machine, which for years has had the
support OF Aldridge Mayors.
The coming nomination Of Mr.. Edger-
ton much improves Republican pros
poets in Monroe county. All Republi-
cans recognize that it is a setback to
Aldridge and therefore will be the
more inclined to vote 1.-The straight Re
publican ticket" this fall. All that will
De granted Aldridge will be his seat
)nce more in the Republican State Com
nittee.

CRIME.
removed.

1t is indeed sad to think Of the
great number Of crimes that are
committed in this city.
Every day some murderous offense
is chronicled in the newspapers.
The people are becoming disgust
ed and the city of magnificent dis
tances is becoming to be the shock
ing cr:.dle for crime. 1t is not on
account of the police department !:
it is not on account of the made.
quate facilities that are furnished
the officers of the law but it is the
insufficient number we have on our
police force. The bloody murder
that was committed on Monday af-
ternoon in this city is only one of the
many crimes that the people are
called upon TO witness in this en-
lightened community.
Until there is stop put to muir
der without IA iustifiable cause, all
offenders should pay the penalty on
the gallows.
For five cents man heart is cut
out and the pretezt of the murderer
will be that he killed in self-defense.

LIDDLE IN THE LEAD FOR SENATOR.
He Has So Delegates in Montgomery
Against 81 for His Opponents

Amsterdam, Aug. 27-Republican
caucuses in the various wards were
held last evening, and re contest be-
tween the Liddle and Gardiner fac
tons was very exciting, and in some in
stances there were animated disputes,
but no actual collision. The caucuses
Of Saturday showed decided lead for
ex-Sheriff Thomas Liddle, and in the
town caucus it was claimed he had
within one of the combined forces of
Gardiner and Mosher. The Charleston
caucus yesterday afternoon elected four
Liddle delegates. The Gardinerites
claim the delegates from Glen. The re-
result of the caucuses In Amsterdam
was favorable to Liddle. It Is claimed
that Liddle has secured IS delegates as
against 81 claimed by the combined
Gardiner osher factions. Gardiner
has So delegates and Mosher 25.
The county convention will be held
at Fonda Thursday, and bids fair to be
most interesting gathering.
