They Charge Discrimination.

They Charge Discrimination.
At the next session Of congress a mon.
ster petition will be presented by Repre-
sentative Murray of South Carolina, the
only coloro man in either house, pray
ing for the restoration OF the rights of
political suffrage III Tho District of Co
lumbia 1t Will be signed by MAORI
,y of tn, negroes Of the District, headed
by Frederick Douglass and ex-senator
Bruce This move grows out of the re-
fusal of the commissioners Of the Dis.
trict to appoint colored man as one OF
the members of the board Of assessors
recently created by act of congress, The
Colored men had an applicant in the
person of Daniel A. Murray, an assist
ant in the congressional library and a
member of the board of trade Frederick
Douglass especially interested himself in
behalf Of Mr.. Murray, but the board re-
fused TO appoint him. The colored peo-
pie made n stubborn fight for the assess
orship, and now that that has been de-
MED them no Offices are left, and they
propose to memorialize congress for the
restoration of the right 9f suffrage in
the District.
When the suffrage was in vogue in
the District, the negroes were an impor-
tant factor in the government, and a
part of the patronage was accorded
them. There was a negro assistant dis
trict attorney, tax registrar and city
marshal, and other lucrative offices
were filed by them. But with abolition
Of the right of suffrage they have been
cut off one by one until the assessorship
was the only place filled by negro.
Now even that has been taken away.
Frederick Douglass says that the gov
erpment of the District is an oligarchy,
and it is u wonder to him that the peo-
plo have tolerated 1t as long as they
hava, Under its present form Of gov
ernment he thinks it impossible for the
So, 600 colored people to get any civil
or political recognition. He says the
trend is now against the negro, but
that reaction will speedily set in.
The sentiments of Mr.. Douglass are
Endorsed by other prominent colored
citizens Of the District, who say that II
they are not successful in their move
they will at least let the world know
they feel keenly the discrimination on
account Of color in the government OF
the District. The pastors of all the To-
cal churches are in favor Of the move
ment, and the petitions will be placed
at the several churches from Sunday tc
Sunday for signatures, - Washington

JUSTICE TO TIE CHlLD.

The Illinois state legislature has been
considering the question of prohibiting
the employment Of married women, of
whom there are four hundred In the
Chicago city schools. The same ques-
ton has recently attracted some atten-
ton In Tacoma, having been upder dis
cussion by the school board. OF Chi
cago's 400 married teachers the Herald
sayss
I'm nearly all cases they are women
who resigned their positions when en-
terlng upon the married state, and re.
turned to them at some subsequent
time, when home duties had ceased to
require their exclusive attention, their
own children being either beyond need
of care during school hours or being
themselves in school in school hours.
These women, failing in no duty Of
motherhood or wifehood In their homes,
carry into the schools matured intui-
ton as to the treatment of children, u
justlce,a wisdom aud loyalty to child
hood which wifehood and motherhood
alone can give"
The Herald discusses the question
from an entirely different standpoint
from that which has animate the Ia
coma disputants. Here the question
seems to be neither one of fitness nor Of
competence, but solely q question Of
"patronage," The argument is made
that woman, being married and moi
self.dependent, should not receive EN-
ployment, because she has husband
who can provide for her. To the News
this seems like placing the pedagogue
in the same category as the pensioner.
If this Idea animstes the Board of
Education or any other org 'nization,
political, social or religious, the sooner
1t disabuees itself Of the idea the bet
ter for ito own welfare. The test of
fitness aud capacity is the only te~l
that should be applied to the applicant
for position in the public schools. The
Chicago Herald asks: why should
400 valuable and experienced teachers
be dropped to make room for 400
o,hers?"
Why shoSld one be dropped to make
room for oneP
Felix Adler said recently: "As was
said of old that the Sabbath was made
Rr man and not man for the
Sabbath 30 the school is made f'r
children and not children for the
schools. If this idea was followed e.
its logical conclusion it would revolu-
tionize the methods now in vogue"
A logical conclusion is that the
"schools are not made for teachers, but
teachers for the Schools" and that
married or single, the qualifications
required ahould be eminent fitness, ex-
perisncs and capabllity, not political
pull.
"The child is to US the banner bearer
Of the future, the harbinger Of the bet
ter time to come, the pledge OF the
progress Of the human race" Its de-
yelopment and training should not be
In unskilled hands nor the subject oi
commerce by ambitious politicians.

an Important Decision Regarding Liquor

Weston, w.. Va. October 25.-In the
Circui, CouI, here this morning King
Wilson. colored, plead guilty to stealing
S25 from the saloon of p. J. Dyer, and
Judge Bennett sentenced him TO one
year I'm the penAentiary.
An Important decision was made by
Judge Bennett to-day in the case OF
II. q. Dawson, who was granted license
TO sell spurious malt liquors by the
County Court az the April term. Daw-
son failed TO pay his license. The Aud
tor released the Sheriff from the pay
menl Of the license, and the County
Court az its last term revoked his l.
celse. Dawson. in the meantime, kept
on selling just the same as If he was
licensed. and the Prosecuting Attorney,
McG3rey. had over one hundred wit
nesses summoned before the grand jury
10 indicc him. The grand jury asked
for inc-ructions on this particular case.
and The Court instructed that when the
County Court granted the license and
the Assessor issued him q certificate
and .f the Sheriff chose 10 give him
time, &c was a matter between the sa-
lo9n-keeper and the Sheriff. and would
not iuyalidate the license. He also de-
cided thar the County Court could not
revoke the license after it had been
issued. This saves Dawson, and unless
the County Court hereafter requires the
license fee to accompany the application
the Salt2n-keepers may take their time
10 paying t..

for stealing horse, and was sentenced
