PUBLIC PRINTER BENEDICT.

For over twelve years The BEE
has known Public Printer Benedict
and during which time, although
he is democrat, and The BEE a
republican journal, he has been a
good friend to the colered employ
ees of his Office.
While there have been criticisms
against him on account Of colored
printers having been discharged,
he has certainly appointed other
colored men to positions on merit
and not color.
Not since the organization of
that Office, has there been one Re-
publican Public Printer, who has
had the courage to appoint COL
ored foreman of anything nor has
there been one who would dare to
appoint colored pressman.
Mr.. Benedict has not only de-
Tended the interest of the colored
employees of his office, but he has
appointed the first colored press
man in the press-room, a full
blooded negro.
And as The BEE stated before he
appointed colored man foreman
of the map room, over white men
and women, and gave those to un-
derstand who didn't care to work
under him, that their resignation
would be accepted.
Whatever the cause is for the dis
charge of colored printers it is not
on account of color as it can be
plainly seen.
| The BEE is ready to defend a
true man, no matter what his poll.
tics may be; color or religious creed.
Public Printer Benedict is a man
and he will not be deferred by Con-
gressional investigation either.

JAMES L. PAUGH.

The Prosecuting Attorney of the
lower Police Court, Mr.. James l..
Paugh is beyond all doubt the most
popular and best liked man whc
has yer filled that position.
His predecessors more or less
have all been republicans, with but
two exceptions, and if the question
was asked the members of the bar,
white or black, if they would sup
port a candidate for Mr.. Paugh's
place the answer would be mo"
Mr.. Paugh is a Southern gentle,
ma" and he has made himself popu.
lar by t eating all classes alike, the
tramp as well as the gentleman.
That is, the tramp receives the
same protection against oppression
as the best well to do citizen.
The colored attorney is given the
same consideration and treated with
the same respect as any member O.
the Supreme Court.
He has the respect and conf
dence of all.
No member of the bar will speal
disrespectable of Mr.. Paugh.

BRUCE AND LYNCH.

For number of years these two
distinguished Afro-Americsns have
been the targets of men who have
no political sagacity, nor did they
possess social or political influence.
Whatever their faults have been,
if they have any, one thing can be
said in their favor and that is, they
have been true to the people they
have represented, and honorable
men to the positions they have
filed.
Every once and while you will
see some bob-tail negro jump up
and declare that these two men have
done nothing for their people; that
they only represent themselves or

A COLORED JUDGE.

The demand that The BEE has
been making for the last two or
three years for colored judge for
the lower branch Of the Police
Court is gaining popularity. In
conversation with many prominent
white members of the bar, demo-
Gratis at that, a colored judge, they
say, would not be out of place in
the lower branch Of the Police Court.
The demand that The BEE is max.
ing for the appointment of a col
ored judge is nothing new.
tits always necessary to get the
people educated up this advanced
octrine Of The BEE before it is
put into practical operation. Yes,
the colored people in addition to a
colorpd judge want an Assistant
Prosecuting Officer.
The District Attorney is repub-
licar, but perhaps he would have
delicacy in appointing one under
democratic administration.
If such is the case, Mr.. Birney
need not have fear. The appoint
ment would meet the approval of
honest men.
A prominent white democrat, one
who stands high in the counsels of
his party, said on last Tuesday, of
this week, that the eolored people
in this city should receive more
recognition.
The Negro is barred from the
courts entirely, except as lawyer,
an he will be barred in that if he
is not more manly.
The white republicans in and
around the courts are more inimical
to the negro than the democrats
Yes, there will be a change and
it is not far off.
Why should all the baillff's Of
the court be white men when there
are SO many negroes to be handled?
Why not give the negro a show.
Let the present form of Govern
ment be abolished.

THE COMBINE.

Senators Allison, Quay, Speaker
Reed and Governor Morton are to-
day the great representatives of the
republican party.
Any one of these distinguished
men would make a good President.
The republicans of the South
owe a debt of gratitude to Speaker
Reed and how any Southern Re-
publican, especially the negroes can
desert him we are unable to state.
Senators Quay and Allison are
sound on the negro question and it
is time for the negro to look to
their friends.

benefited.
The people talk more about The
BEE than any other paper edited
by negroes in this country and it is
natural that intelligent people will
seek beings and organs that can do
them the most good.
The BEE is the greatest negro
advertising medium in this country.
+ 1st. Because the people will seek
fearless expounder of their rights.
2nd. Because The BEE is the
Oldest paper edited by negroes in
this city.
Ord. The BEE has been killed
several times and buried alive
often and still it comes up IN time
to defend the interests of the peo-
pie.
4th. More people read The BEE
than any other negro paper in this
country and if you want to be bene-
fitted The BEE is the paper to ad-
vertise in.
Every secret and beneficial Or
ganization in this city read The
BEE.
1t is the organ of the Walters
Protective Association.
The BEE is indorsed by the busi-
ness men, white and black; the
laborers, the caterers, the profess
sional men and all the people of
note and standing.
No politician would be without
The BEE.
1t is Fireside Companion and
tits the best medicine in the world
if you have the blues.
There is more life and virtue in
The BEE than all the negro organs
in the country.
These are only few reasons why
the people advertise in The Bee.

clare some negro who has been a
fsilurs, the leader of the people.
No one knows these two gentle
men better than the editor Of this
paper. Both of these men are the
true representatives of the colsred
people of this country and no two
men have done more for the well
fare and elevation of the race than
Bruce and LyncA.
All the barking of the dogs and
the scratching of the cats will not
disturb them in mind, nor will they
tumbl from the topmost rounds Of
their popularity. They have done
more for the race and they can do
more than those who are endeavor-
ing to disgrace them.
The Washington bee., 1896-04-25
THE LILLY WHITES.

There is growing disposition on
the part of some white republicans
to organize a white mans republi-
can party and ignore the negro.
In this city few white republi-
cans, as they do every four years,
have organized white republican
organization. This same preju-
diced spirit manifested itself when
several gentlemen arranged for the
celebration of the birth of the re-
publican party.
Not colored republican was
placed on the committee, and in
deed it is doubtful whether one was
invited to seat on the stage. No
men stand higher in this commu-
nifty and country than Hon. B. K.
Bruce, ex-ColIector of Taxes, John
F. Cook, Drs. j. R. Francis, S. R..
Watts, Mr.. L. Q. Bailey, P. r..
Carson and others all good republi-
cans. s,s!Ssa
This discriminating spirit on
the part of some white republicans
is prevalent in many sections of the
country.
Is it because the negro is no
longer the political slave of the re-
publican scheming politicians?
Is it because the negro cannot be
turned to suit the tastes of white
republicans, and after he victory
feed the negro on fish bones and
they take meat?
The time will no doubt come
when the negro will be compelled to
seek protection in the house Of his
enemy.
The negro is no longer the dog
in the manger ; let the lilly white
republicans discard him when they
may, he will be man and citizen.
