THE ANTI SALOON LEAGUE.

We believe in the liberty and

We are of the opinion that there is
as much wrong doing by the Anti
Saloon agitators as there is among
those who drink too much whiskey.
No person is compelled to drink
whiskey if he does not desire to do
so. But there is an atmosphere
that is inhaled by many Anti Sa-
loon agitators that does more to in
voxicate them and effect their moral
surroundings than all the whiskeY
chat is consumed by those who seem
to be so distasteful to some of these
moral agitators.

THE POSTS AR TICLE.

Some time ago, our esteemed
contemporary, the Daily Post, pub
lished an editorial and among other
things said that Major Mckinley,
by virtue of the services of the coh
>rsd republican vote, in his behalf,
snould appoint an Afro American
In the cabinet. Some few of our
contemporaries, namely the Lsngs-
,on City Herald, Cleveland Gazette
and one other took exception and
doubted the sincerity and honesty
of the editorial, while the other 3s5
journals edited by Afro Americans
indorsed the article.
The BEE was the first journal in
this country, long before and after
the election of Major Mckinley,
said that an Afro American should
be appointed in the cabinet. Will
our contemporaries doubt the sim
osrity of THE BEE? Suppose the
Post is n ot sincere, is that sufficient
reasons for the Afro Americans to
say they don't want colorsd man
in the cabinet? Have not colored
men got sufficient sense and back.
bone to say what they want? 1t il
not whether tn Post is sincere Oh
not, but, whether we should have 6
colored man in the cabinet. Some
people say that it will embarras'
the administration. Afro Ameri
cans are more embarrassed by being
continually snubbed and ostracisec
byevery administration dishing on
q few Offices to a few colored mel
whose mou his are closed as tightl,
tas'clams, and wink at the wrong
Committed against their people

THE TRAITOR.

The per onal physician OF An
tonic Maceo DR.. Zertucha, would
have the American people believe
that M:ceo was an enemy to the
Americans. No one but Zertucha
would have the gall to make this
charge gainst one of the bravest
and noblest patriots Of modern
times.
Let Cuba be free.
The Washington bee., 1896-12-19
A NEW LEADERSHIP.

There is no desire on the part of
The BEE to discount the value of
men who have formerly held re-
spons.ble positions IN our govern
ment We believe that it is the
duty of the incoming administra-
tion to appoint colored man in
the cabinet, by virtue of our large
voting strength. If that be true,
it is necessary that man who has
had some legislative experience be
appointed, which does rot effect
the policy that we have been advo-
eating, new leadership.
There was time when the young
men had others to think for them.
We do our own thinking now and
shall continue to do so until the
power of the Afro Americans is felt
in this country.
We have too many Grimmers and
apologists among US; we have too
many sycophants who have not the
manhood to see that their rights
and liberties are maintained.
1t is the lack of proper leader
ship and strict adherence to those
principles that build up a race or
nation. There is too much treach-
cry, deception and jealousy among
Afro Americans.
They al want to lead when in
deed some of them have not the
elements of leadership.
Some of them would have the
Caucasian to believe that they are
white while in Office, but how soon
they fall back into their own ranks
after they have been dismissed
from their fat job. These are the
men who liz. pose upon the credulity
of the race.
Major Mckinley will have to be
confronted with this very element
who puts a premium upon their
bastardy to the disgust of honor
and good reputation.
This is the class that appeals to
the more fortunate race for social
recognition |; this is the class that
causes so much social ostracism
among themselves.
| There are but a few of this class
that lnfests our body polite.
| A new leadership that will bene-
fit the masses is what Major Nc
Kinley, we hope will establish. A
leadership that knows no North Of
South, East or West. But a lead
ership that will unite the masses
and bring the poor and fallen hu
emanity from degradation and op
preston.
This is the leadership we want
Ii offices make leaders, as some o
the false advocates believe, then le
, men be appointed to them who hav'
, sufficient manhood, honesty ant
integrity to maintain the dignity o
, them.
The world is now on hunt TO

NOT A BIT.
(From the New Orleans Republican,

Chase Of the Washington BEE does
not seem to be chasing after an Of
fee. He is exercising considerable
in these days Of syco
plants around the seat of government,
and maybe he will be satisfied if al
phabetical Taylor is removed and
Cooper of the Colored Am merican is
kept from tasting the sweets of office.
Washington City is always filled with
a lot Of colored so called leaders who
want to represent their race by enjoy.
ing the luxury of being part and parcel
of the government, but most Of them
will get the marble heart"
The BEE begs leave to inform
it's esteemed contemporary that
neither of the adventurers spoken
OF disturbs The BEE in the least.
