OUR LEADERS AND THE CABINET


The Washington. ID. C., PosT in a
vein OF seriousness proceeds to show
the substantial service rendered the
Republican Party and the nation by
he citizens of African descent and pro
poses that one of their number be
named by Mr.. MCKINLEY for place in
his cabinet.
1t names specifically ex-senator B.
X BRUCE and Prof. BooKER I. WASH
INeToN and states that there are many
others who are equally as well fitted
for the discharge of the duties of such
high office.
The Columbus, o, DIsPATcH takes
issue with the PosT and yet concludes
that Mr.. GEORGE MYERS, of Cleveland
would be an excellent selection, provid
ed the PosT's idea should prevail.
1t is unfortunate for US that we are
unable to agree upon some two or three
persons and press them for some sub
sta, tial recognition along these lines.
There has been too much Of the dis
position on our part to accept the lead
ership of men assigned to us by our
Anglo-Saxon brother instead Of making
he selection ourselves.
AS it is, we believe however that Mr..
BRUCE would make a most excellent
cabinet official. He was elected to the
United States Senate at one time, and
thereby was accorded a leadership
10y his people, which he has held to the
present.
His discharge of the duties OF the
office of Register of the Treasury and
Rscordership of Deeds of the District
of Columbia was unattended by any
scandal or failure to properly perform
the duties of office. He is courteous,
able and scholarly, and his associations
have been such as to make it fore
gone conclusion that he would make
an agreeable member of the Presi.
dents official family.
PRoF. WASHINGTON is not in politics
and we doubt IL he would relinquist
his life's work to accept the allure
ments OF such an Office. Be that as il
may, as Secretary of Agriculture, hs
would make n brilliant success, and hi
selection would be hailed with salts
faction by right thinking people
throughout the country.
Mr.. MYERS would also be splendiC
timber" TO use in t1s::s connection anC
we have in mind a dozen more who's
acceptance of the position would be al
advantage to the President-elect anC
positive benefit to the country.
So long as unmerited ostracism i
visited upon us as a class, so long shall
we expect official recognition by on
friends for the same reason.

THAT JACKSON WARD PARADE.

WHILE the Jackson Ward Republican
Or0anization decided not to have a

on the 10Th inst. was under the au-

THE fact that an attempt was made
to lynch ELISHA JOHNSON. colored at
Farmville, Va, between the hours Of
II and O'Clock, bundantly justifies
the conclusions concerning the safety
OF the Lunenburg prisoners when they
we're therein confined.
JOHNSON was charged with highway
robbery and assault upon a white man
whose name is "WAx" PRICE. The in
juries of the aforesaid PRIcE were not
at all serious.
The Jail in question is VIGOROUSLY in
secure and it is no trouble to kill a
person within it's confines, provided
the light is sufficient to discern his
whereabouts inside.
The would-be lynchers shoulS be
hunted down ard punished. JOHNSON
was given twenty years in the peniten-
tiary and upon the order of Judge

No one who listened to his rounded
sentences, fervid, but practical rheto-

We admired the man before we love

plane for the understanding OF our cor

the foundation upon which we may
successfully work out our complet,
