Keep Well Informed

If every progressive young man
would write out or paint the above
legend on a board and nail it up
where his eye could fall on it contin
ually, it would remind him of duty
that he owes to himself and those de-
pendent on him. There is nothing
that better fits a man for the position
that he holds, or insures his promo

well informed and thoroughly posted,

To enhance their beauty by enlalg-
ing the pupils of their eyes to increase
their brilliancy several young women
at the Union Knitting Mills, in Fred
erick, Nd, recently bathed them free
ly with belladonna. The drug. instead
of producing bewitching black eyes,
impaired their sight to such an extent
as to cause them to take several days
rest under the care of their physicians.

The BORE WAS SHOCKED.
A Blunt Letter That Reached Him From
tba Interior Departnaent.


The following anecdote is related OF
Judge Cox, who was once secretary OF
the interior: There is class of people,
and large one, who find pleasure in
corresponding with the departments ON
trivial subjects and prolong the cor
respondence indefinitely. 4 gentleman,
let us call him Mr.. Jones, was one OF
these persistent specimens who wrote to
the interior department. Although re-
plies were made to his inquiries, he al
ways returned to the front with another
unimportant question. His case became
a subject of conversation among the
clerks, and at lunchtime one day some
one referred to Mr.. Jones' ability as
letter writer.
'If had my way, )" said clerk, I'D
soon put an end to his nonsense. "
Chow would you do it:''
"Why, I'd write him a letter like
this" and he wrote as follows:
DEAR Mr.. JoSEs-Yours of the 9th inst.
received In reply would say that your in
tellectual capacities are rather inferior to
those Of homeless Goldfish. ! am tired of YOU
Hoping you will not write again, l remain,
yours respectfully, ---.
The letter was passed around and read
and finally carelessly thrown aside on
desk. 1t remained there until evening.
when it was collected, with others, by
the messenger whose duty it was to car
nv letters from the several divisions to
the secretary for his signature. 1t
CHANGED to be among some letters relat-
ing to routine matters, and Secretary
Cox affixed his signature without read
ing it, Then it went through the mail
to Mr.. Jones. The following day the
secretary received a communication
from Mr.. Jones. He was shocked and
grieved; he was fearful that the govern
ment was lettering to its fall. When
cabinet officer descended to penning
such sentences, he said, he feared for
the welfare of the country. Mr.. Jones
wounded feelings were soothed by per-
sonal letter from the secretary, and to
show that there was no hard feeling ON
his part Mr.. Jones at once renewed his
correspondence with the Department.

The educated young Negro is a
miserable piece of black humanity
he is able to see and understand
something Of life and his surround
ings. He sees his white classmate
occupying a position in society
commensurate with his training,
while he is teaching = country
school at salary Of s25 per month
or blacking boots on the streets.
He is ambitious and tries to obtain
a position where the atmosphere
of sociey is pure and noble, but
finds himself hampered by preju-
dice. But the illiterate Negro is
contented with a mere existence.
He is satisfied with the crumbs from
his masters table. He is contented
to crawl on the ground like a
worm. He has no ambition, aspi-
ration or purpose in life. If he
could see his true condition in So
cisty, he would commit suicide.

ONE DOLLAR PER YEAR.

The management of The WASH
INGToN BEE has decided to secure
thirty thousand subscribers by Jan
uary l, 1897.
To do this it has been decided to
reduce the subscription price fronl
two dollars per year to one dollar
per year aud three cents per copy.
This will enable all 'classes who
want the paper to obtain it.
The BEE is the second oldest pa
per in the District of Columbia
white OF colored. The Evening
Star is the oldest.
This paper is the most reliable
/ one and the most fearless in de-
Tending wrongs against public
property and personal liberty.
The BEE for '97 will surpass all
efforts in Afro-American journal
ism and if you want great race
paper, THE BEE should be sent for
now.
Our Inaugural Guide that is in
course of preparation will be
another great Afro-American enter
prise for '97. Send in your names
now and yeu will not only get THE
BEE for one year for one dollar but
will receive free copy of The
BAR's Inaugural Guide for 'e7,
which will be issued March l.
We are placing in our press rooms
a new steam engine and fine news
paper press which will also enable
the Company to do all classes of
work.
THE BEE is the greatest Afro
American advertising medium in
this country which is evidenced by
the high class of advertisements
in the paper from time to time.
THE BEE carries more high class
advertisements than any other pa
per in this city.
1. Do you want great race
defender?
The Bee then is that paper.
3. Do you want your boys con-
nectsd with great race paper?
| The Bee Is that paper.
3. Has The Bee failed to de,
fend the interests of the people
when an attempt has been made ia
abridge them?
The Bee is that paper that hal
withstood the storms of opposition
and oppression.
The Bee will be the paper thai
knows no North, South, East OIL
West. But paper Of the people.
Toadyism in Afro-Amsricau jour
nalism has been too prevalent il
this country. The wrongs against
|, the race have been winked ut anC
compromised by such Afro-Ameri
ccn editors and socalled representa-
|, tives that the time has come in TIT
history Of this country that there
should be ut least enc true defendel
Of the people at the Capital Of thi
republic.

The Bee extends its congratula-
lations to our able contemporary,
The Baptist Magazine on its fine
new outfit and its new quarters in

DR.. johnson will now set mp his
own journal. He has in his en-
ployment two of the best printers
in the city, Messrs. b. ID. Pryor
and A. G. Leonard. Here is our

The Bee can not help from time
to time to make mention of the
wonderful work that is being per-
formed at the sanatarium of DR..
Francis. He is certainly entitled
to all the praise and credit that
any one can bestow upon worthy
young physician. who is an honor
TO the Afro American race.
The Washington bee., 1896-10-31

Who is responsible for these hard
times? The republican says that
the democratic party is responsible,
while Bryan says the gold bug is re-
sponsible. The single ta1er says
that the land monopolist is respon-
sible. The prohibitionist says that
intemperance is the cause of these
dull times. The writer will say
that the importation of foreign la
Dor into this country is in meas
ure responsible. The importation
of foreign labor makes an Ameri-
can compete with cheap laborers,
thus reducing wages. When the
supply is greater than the demand,
a laborer is compelled to work for
low wages, and some will be without
employment. There should be a
law against certain class of foreign
emigrants. The advent of the new
woman is helping to glutton the la
Dor market. This new woman is
seen in all the trades and profess
sions. She is working with her
brother in the shop, pleading law
with him at bar, ministering
medicine to the sick and dying with
him in the home and hospital, and
preaching the word with him in the
pulpit. A great many of these
things she is doing with credit ind
honor. A woman can live cheaper
than man, consequently she can
work cheaper. In an Office where
a man gets $15 per week as type
| writer, . woman will be glad to get
IS per week. On account Of the
woman doing her work competently
and chesply. she is driving man out
Of employment, preventing him
from caring for his family prop
| erly. If woman is competent to
FL! Q position, shs should demand
a. much salary for her service ~ q
man. We do not object to the new
woman filing positions of trust,

country. Send in your names at

Yes, The Bee is favorable to Mr..
Fortune because he is honest.
During our acquaintance with him
we have never known him to betray
a trust. He has an opinion of his
own which is a great deal more
than one-half the Afro-Americans
in this country possess. The col
ored man is a coward and toady.

1t is amusing to see the amount
