THE DISTRICT JAIL.

Warden Leonard, of the District Jail,
has made several improvements at the
Jail. The system that he has adopted
now puts the Jail in a better condition
than it has ever been before.
A door has been cut from the ward
ems Office into the rotunda, which
gives the occupants of that Office free
eXitto the rotunda.
The recent death Of Capt. VIM. C.
Croker has thrown gloom over the
jail. He was man loved by all who
knew him and quite a favorite with
Warden Leonard, the guards, and
prisoners at the Jail.
Warden Leonard has not felt so well
since his return from Louisville, Ky.

THE POLITICIANS.

1t is indeed disgusting and dis
graceful to the republican party in
the District of Columbia. 1t is re-
ported that quite a number OF
Southern politicians have been writ
ing to candidates demanding
money.
These appeals, it is learned come
from the Southern politicians. The
Presidential candidates have no
doubt become disguised at the i'm
portunities of these Southern poll
ticians. Men who are not able to
pay for their election have no bust
ness to ask for the honor of being
elected delegate.
If the people want man to be a
candidate to represent them they
will certainly elect him with or
without money.
This city is the dumping ground
for every pot house politician.
Quite number of these would
be leaders are only negroes out of
office, and as one of the politicians
remarked the other night, there are
negroes who have heretofore been
attempting to pass for white in Of
flee, but the moment the democratic
administration came in power and
kicked these nondescript out of Of
flee, the night is made hideous by
their cries in defense of the negro.
The BEE would suggest to the
District republicans not to be fooled
by these men who are now asking
you to give them your votes.
These men could not be found
when it tried mems souls to be
republican.
Perry Carson with all his faults
must be given the credit of sticking
to the principles of the republican
party.
Of course this time the Colonel
will be retired, He will 60 down
with the proud satisfaction of know
ing that he has won many a battle
and had he been as true to his
friends as his friends have been to
him he would to-day have the I'M
divided support of the republican
party in the District of Columbia.

BISHOP TURNER'S APPEAL.

Bishop II. NJ. Turner hobs up
again and says that he wants
100000 negroes to make homes
In Liberia.
No doubt Bishop Turner is cor
rect, but why is it that he refuses
to 60 to Liberia and stay and tell
the people on this side that he wants
them to come over?
Why doesn't he first set the
example:
If he is acting in good faith, now
is the time for him to show it.
Bishop Turner goes to Africa and
remains long enough not to catch
the fever, returns and tells the PEG.
pie that it is a country of milk and
honey.

OUR NIGHT SCHOOLS.

The night schools have opened,
and to the surprise of the recent
graduates, who thought they would
have been appointed, the trustees
appointed the day teachers and
one Mrs. HELEN Smith, formerly
Miss HELEN Kicks.
The recent graduates of the Nor
NAL School should have been ap-
pointed as the teachers who were
appointed had schools with one ex-
ception. 1t is rather hard on those
young ladies who toiled and labored
to graduate to be ignored as they
have been. The colored schools
need reorganization and the
sooner men are appointed on the
board, who have nerve to stick to
what they do and what is needed
the better it will be for the schools.
Our High School is in need of a
principal who can bring the schools
up to high intellectual basis. The
colored schools are behind in many
respects, where the fault is, no one
knows but those who have charge
of the schools.

SUPT. COOK.

Superintendent Cook had more
important business to attend than
to allow the public schools to be
interfered with, by local commits
sion to get up display for the At
lanta Exposition? Why should the
colored schools be compelled to take
any more interest than the white
schools. The Atlanta Exposition
was for all classes regardless OF
color or conditions.
Mr.. Cook should be sustained by
trustees to whom was referred Mr..
The Washington bee., 1895-10-12

Lawson's communication for con-
sideration.
Mr.. Lawson claims the commits
sion would pay the necessary ex-
penses, and still it is claimed that
quite a number of exhibits were
left behind because there was not
sufficient funds to defray the ex-
penses. Mr.. Cook knows better
what the schools want than those
on the outside.

LOOKING, FOR DOODLE.

u The number of candidates for
the next Republican convention
are more numerous than they are
in the states where they elect from
so to 100. Every cross-road poll
tician is a candidate and more or
less the colored candidates are
looking for the man who has the
Doodle. 1t is amusing to see the
kind and their pedigree.
