MR.. BRUCE AND HOWARD.

The Ne1O York .4Se, IN its
last issue, practically nominates
Senator Bruce for president of
Howard University. We thank
the .46e for the compliment paid
to our distinguished townsman in
this connection, but candor compels
us to say that Mr.. Bruce has no
aspirations in that direction. He
is trustee of the university and
as such, will give it his loyal sup
port and faithful services; beyond
this he will not go. The repuhli-
can party needs Mr.. Bruce in its
business and it is going to have him.

THIRD AUDITOR YoUNGBLooD FAILS
TO SEE HIS CONSTITUENTS.
The colored republican office seek,
ers IN the city are greatly dissatisfied
with Col. VIM. Youngblood, OF Aia-
hama. at present Third Auditor OF the
Treasury Department. 1t is alleged
that he pavs no attention to the appeals
made to him by his colored 1rienoS
from Alabama, nor will he pay any at
tention to their letters When ne re-
ceives them. Col. Youngblooo, IL Is
claimed, can do great deal II ne SO
desires, but he is not inclined 10 help
his colored friends. Col. Bill stevens
has become disgusted and left the city
and claims that he will be needed
again in the sweet bye and bye.
We need no leaders. If talking
and apologizing to the white peo-
ple for the mistakes of the Negro
makes a leader, then the Times ls
right in naming Mr.. Washington.
In the first place Negro leadership
is a failure and fraud. We never
had a leader and it is not likely
that we will have one any time soon.
We cannot find a man who has
sand enough to lay aside office
seeking long enough to tell admin
istrative powers that they are
wrong. The press of the count y
IS the leader of the Negro. We
mean the Negro press, with but
a few exceptions. We need men
who are brave enough and will
make sacrifices enough to stand up
for the Negro. We need no leader.
If we did, we could not find one.

BUTTONS FOR MANUFACTURING
TR AIDE IN RIIIK

These buttons are not made here, nor
are they likely to be made. First, be-
cause little or none of the raw material
required has been found here; second,
because the total sales being limited to
this country would not warrant the
investment of the necessary capital in
plant needed to make the various styles
wanted 1t is evident that the intention
is to exclude these goods in the interest
of some higher-cost goods. The pro-
posed duty would be u real hardship and
bear heavily on the class of people who
buy "china buttons" as well as on the
manufacturers of cheap shirts, under
wear, etc.
Bone Buttons (to sew On)-Present
duty, 35 per cent; Mckinley bill, so
per cent; proposed duty, from 1O6 to
1874 per cent. These goods are mostly
sold to manufacturers of cheap under
wear, children's waists, corsets, cloth
ing, etc.

Means Tens of Millions.

Careful estimates show that nearly
one-haf cent a pound profit is given to
the trust On every pound of sugar re-
fined-a profit which means tens of
millions of dollars. Such duty assures
for it as great power over the con-
sumner as it now enjoys over the pro-
ducer, and no single duty in the senate
measure requires a fuller explanation
of the motives leading to it.-Harper's
Weekly.

Sugar Trust ExisIs ~. tonra-

We are assured by the Sugar Trad.
Journal of May 13-Organ of the sups,
trust-that "if ever a monopoly existed
in the sugar refining business it exists
no longer, and it is not likely that i,
will ever be renewed" This is deligb,.
full news. The journal was discussino
an amendment to the senate bill to have
refined sugars pay the same duties as
raw sugars in eases where the manufae.
ture is controlled by a monopoly. Iftbis
visionary proposal should pass the
senate, it will jeopardize the tariff
bill and the sugar trusts tens of mil
lions of surplus profits, which are 50
near at hand that the mouths of Have
meyer and Searles are watering for
them. The sugar trust trembles at the
prospect, and tries to keep up its eOur-
age by having its organ inform the
world that "a lot of such visionary pro-
posals will, no doubt, be INTRODUCED
while the bill is under discussion, but
in the end the sound Judgment menwin
control and tariff bill be passed with
out very much change from the senate
schedule"
The trust may be right. 1t usuallyis,
for it can predict what will happen to
the sugar schedule of the senate bill It
knows what demands will be made by
it's agents and tools in the senate, and
it. also knows the power of those who
make demands to enforce them. Itputs
S7O.OOO,OOO against the interests Of B-
100000 people, and it knows from ez.
perience which has most weight in The

ance of power.
No, there is no sugar trust. and nevG

ment will prevail. when the devil wa

OUR POLICE DEPARTMENT

Commissioner Wight has partly
revolutionized the police depart
ment to the extent of changing the
head of the detective department.
and several of the lieutenants.
While we regret the transfer of In
spector Hollinberger, no doubt the
change in that department is for
the best of the service. Detective
Mattingly will no doubt make some
improvements. Among those who
were promoted, the name Of
one the best and most fearless Of
ficers on the force, was left out and
that man is Sergeant Daley He
would have made a fine lieutenant.
Sergeant Kenny is to be congrat-
ulatedEOn his promotion. We have
every reason to believe that he is
one man who will give colored Of
ficers a show, He is one of the
most efficient men on the force.
The BEE has every reason to be-
lieve if the case of Hall had been
placed in the hands of Weeden and
Horn, at the time the old shoe
maker Fall was killed, the assas-
sian would have been caught long
ago. No two shrewder men can be
found on the force than these
men.
The police department should
have been reorganized years ago,
but we never had a Commissioner
who had sand enough 10 do i 1t
is hoped before Mr.. Wight fin
ishes he will give the police depart
ment Instructions in the use of
pistols and clubs.

The domestic manufacturers in whose
interests these changes are supposed 30
be made have stated that they do not
desire over so per cent. duty on linen
goods. and one of the principal manu-
facturers of linen and cotton handker-
chiefs in America (of Acheson, Harden
& Co., Passaic. n. j. states that he does
not desire any advance of duty on his
goods.
The gross injustice of these duties
can be appreciated when it is remem-
bered that, owing to climatic condi-
tions, good fiber fax cannot be grown
or linen manufactured successfully in
this country, and when it is further re-
membered that the kind of linen taxed
is the kind that is used by the poorest
classes, while much lower duty is put
on the finer grades.

Prices Of Linens Go Up.

When the tariff bill was about to be
framed the republican leaders stated
that they desired to be moderate and to
avoid anything like excessive rates.
Mr.. Aldrich. when introducing the
amended measure into the senate,
claimed that his rates were generally
lower than those of the house bill. The
linen schedule, however, is a notable
one of many exceptions. In it the SEN
ate rates are higher than those of the
house and much higher than anything
ever before known.
Under the Mckinley bill of 1890 lin
ems were assessed 35 per cent, with a
few exceptions as high as so per cenA
ad valorem. Under the rates proposed
by the senate large proportion of the
goods in everyday use will be assessed
from IS to IS per cent. and in some
instances over 100 per cent The fol-
lowing table shows some of the changes
in the cost of medium and low grade
linens:

The Dainty Lace Jackets

Jackets of lace are among the novel
ties Of the season. These We're oriSi-
nally intended to be worn through the
summer. But some stylish women have
started out to use them as jackets over
the very thin organdy and muslin gowns,
and they look particularly we'll with the
mousseline de sole aid silk null gowns.
They drop little below the waist line
in length aid have a short postillion
back. These are newer than the Etou
or bolero Jackets which, however, do
not lose their place in feminine affection.
All the Jackets fit tight in the back, but
the present fad is to have the front loose
and open over full vest of some mater
ial. Some are fitted more closely than
others and have one dart; but even then
there must be the long, loose line from
the throat to the waist. Black lace jack
cts are particularly suitable for older
women, and look exceedingly we'll made
of strips of insertion. They can be worn
over black silk gown and really do give
a certain amount of warmth. There is
warmth in a piece of lace, as everyone
who has worn it knows, and these jack
ets form an outer garment that is light
and cool, and certainly make the gown
that has to be worn in the street look
much finer than one worm with nothing
over the waist.-Harper's Bazaar.

SUMMARY
Not Likely to Intrude

In the Brazilian hotels men are en-
ployed to do the chamberwork, and they
are prone to rush into the bedrooms of
the guests when occasion requires with
out knocking. A prim little Yankee
"schoolmarm" visiting Rio de Janeiro,
was much annoyed at this custom, and
after mildly protesting several times
without effect, she said severely to the
boy who did, the work in her room:
Juan, be good enough to understand
that will not allow you to open the door
of my room without knocking. If you do
it again shall certainly report you at
the office. Why, I might be dressing!"
'No danger of that, serora," responded
Juan, in his best English, because be-
fore come in 1 always look me through
the keYhole."
