Sharp Finsnciering.

In the times of 1886 there dwelt in
the pleasant town of Il. Il smooth, oily
hammered gentleman who diversified o
commonplace pursuit by some exciting
episodes Of finance, dealing occasional
ly in exchange, buying and selling un-
current money, etc. We will suppose
this gentleman 8 name to be Thompson.
1t happened that Mr.. Ripley of North
Carolina was in 7. Having some $1,-
200 in North Carolina money, and de-
string TO return to the Old North State
with his funds, not wishing to encounter
the risk Of robbery through the Greek
country, in which there were rumors of
hostilities between the whites and the
Indians, he bethought him of buying
exchange OH Raleigh as the safest mode
Of transmitting his money. On inquiry
he was referred to Mr.. Thompson as
the only person dealing in exchange in
that place. He called ON Mr.. T. and
made known his wishes. With his char
acteristic politcness Mr.. Thompson
agreed to accommodate him with
slight bill on his correspondent in
Raleigh, charging him the moderate
premium Of per cent for ii. Mr..
Thompson retired into his counting
room and in a few minutes returned with
the bill and letter, which he delivered
to Mr.. Ripley, at the same time receiv-
ing the money from that gentleman
plus the exchange As the interlocutors
were exchanging valedictory compli-
ments it occurred to Mr.. Thompson
that it would be favor to him if Mr..
Ripley would be SO kind as to convey to
Mr.. II. IS correspondent package he
was desirous of sending, which request
Mr.. Ripley assured Mr.. II. it would
afford him great pleasure to comply
with. Mr.. Thompson then handed Mr..
Ripley package, strongly enveloped
and sealed, addressed to the Raleigh
banker, after which the gentlemen part
ed with many polite expressions of re-
gard and civility.
Arriving without any accident or
hindrance ut Raleigh, Mr.. Ripleys first
care was TO call ON the banker and pre-
sent his documents. He found him at
his office, presented the bill and letter
to him and requested payment of the
former. That said the banker will de
pend a good deal upon the contents Of

women in the South, by white and
black men, but in case OF black
man who commits rape he Is
given a speedy trial by Judge
Lynch" while the white man is
tried by a jury and if his victim be
a colored woman he is, nine cases
out of ten, acquitted. Let us ad-
wise the southern white people to
cease lynching innocent colored
men. If one is guilty of crime,
give him a ial by jury. Whether
the trial is a "mOck . one or not
it will look more humane in the
ewes of the American people, while
it may, in fact, be farce. Again,
we say President Nc Kinley is to be
commended in taking a conserva-
tive view of the recent telegram for
troops by Florida's governor.

MAJOR BRACKETT.

OUR esteemed contemporary The
Daily Post is somewhat exercised
over the axe that Major BRACKET,
the newly appointed clerk is using.
If memory fails us not, we believe
Mr.. CLEVELAND used several axes
on the republicans and then pro
tected those who were appointed to
these places, after the democratic
butchery. Major BRACKETS axe
is made Of good material and if il
has succeeded in entering the strong
walls that MIR. CLEVELAND bull
around his democratic pets 10
should be honored for it. Major
BRACKET knows what he is doing
and he is just the man to be placed
at the head of the government
where it requires nerve. Our con-
temporary failed to see how the last
democratic administration beheaded
deserving republicans and old SOL
diers.

New England is much concerned
about free hides. Some of her biggest
industries, especially that of boots and
shoes, have been built up during our
quarter of century of free hides. She
now sells boots and shoes in all parts of
the world. Taxed hides would cripple
this and other industries. Her leading
senators pretend to represent her and
to put up a fight for free hides. In real
ity, if necessary, they will sacrifice free
hides to obtain high duties on sugar
with plenty of margin for trust prof
it's. Just why this is so should be a
matter for senatorial investigation, if
such investigation would only investi-
gate. Fortunately for the sugar trust,
but unfortunately for the rest of US
100000 people, the sugar trust un-
derstands well the art of making friends
where they will do the most good. 1t
has able attorneys to advise it how to
distribute its sweets to politicians and
lawmakers and at the same time to
steer clear of jails.
In this way and in this way only can
we account for the attitude of not few
prominent tariff makers at Washing
ton. The situation is interesting-de-
cidedly so.

THE RECORDERS NEW MOVE

Recorder of Deeds Cheatham is q.
present busily in securing an apnro'
priation to have copies made of ali m.
District real estate records, tbess
copies TO be authenticated with the rs-
COZ der's seal and placed in the ire
proof vault for safe keeping. Asitis
all the record books, from No. !. datsj
1892, to the very latest, are kept in the
large library room on wooden Shelves
and tables, exposed TO vandalism or
the yet more destructive fire. Even
without these outside DESTROYING agep.
Cies the work of decay is going on fTor,
within the books themselves, and in
many cases the records are litera.Iv
falling to pieces, and the writing has
become SO illegible as to be deC1pher-
able only by an expert. In other
places the acids used in the inks have
eaten entirely through the pages, max
ing it impossible TO read what was on
the other side.
The recorder fears that in the course
of few more years many of the rec
ordS will be destroyed, and all traces
of the titles of much valuable property
lost entirely.
To obviate this danger Mr.. Cheat
ham wishes to have an appropriation
made by Congress, which will enable
him 70 have each of these record
books copied in succession. He will
then assure the legality of such copies
by the office seal, and have them all
placed in his private office, which IS
absolutely nreproOf, to insure Their
safety.
This work, he said, would require
the temporary services of several extra
Copyists and small appropriation for
stationery. He would further ask for
the permanent employment of one or
two copyists, whose duty it shall be to
make copies Of all present and future
deeds as soon as they are recorded.
"My principal fear, ," RecOrder
Cheatham said, "is of fire. | am il
formed that in the Chicago fire al
trace to the ownership of thousands
dollars worth of property was com
pletely lost, and today there Is endless
litigation over it.
81 should like to have the appropria-
ton for this purpose added to the sun
dry civil bill, but should that prove
impossible there will be special bill
introduced. In this plan | hope TO
have the support of the citizens Of
" ashington, as my sole object is the
protection of their property "
Mr.. Cheathams plan has the indOrse-
ment of all the lawyers who have bust
ness in the recorders office, and all
are eager as himself to see his plan
successful.

PRESIDENT MCKINLEY
COMMENDED.

President Mckinley is to be
commended by the people of this
country for the conservative view
he took Of the telegram that was
sent to him, for troops, by the gov
ernor of Florida, in the alleged
recent uprising of colored citizens
in the state of Florida, in defense
of one of our fellow citizens who
was charged with having commit
ted an outrage upon lady of that
state. 1t is questionable to our
mind, whether an outrage had been
committed. Certainly, there mus
have been grave doubts in the
minds of those who took up arms
to defend the colored prisoner, as
to any outrage having been COM
mitted. We don't believe in justi-
fying assaults Of any kind commit
ted, by any one, upon helpless
females. Would it not have been
in good taste for the outraged (?)
white citizens to have waited and
allowed the prisoner to be tried and
adjudged guilty by jury of his
countrymen? Very often men are
lynched, white and colored, when
they are caught, by others, in the
act of immoral contact with one
another. We can cite cases where
colored men are known to be Grim
inally intimate with persons, for
years, but the moment they are
caught, the cry of rape is made and
the innocent victim is taken and
hung to tree. 1t may not. or it
may have been the case of the COL
ored man in Florida.
There is a lesson to be learned
from the defense that was made by
the colored citizens of Florida in
this recent case. The time is COM
ing when the black man will strike
back as he did in Florida. This
lynching of colored men
must cease, before the South is
forced to do so, by men whose
patience have ceased to be a vi rtue.
We have no doubt that rapes are

THE DISTRICT MILITIA.

The Summer encampment OF the
District Militia just closed has add
ed a splendid tribute to the worth
and efficiency of colored men COM
manded by colored officers. At
every point they stood the test in a
manner to elicit praise and stifle
criticism. For the first time in the
history of the camp they were given
the duties of exterior guards, and
the guard-mount of Co. A., the first
representative on duty was reve-
lation to those who came to scott,
but remained to praise, and it was
not excelled by any organization
during the camp. Special atten-
tlon of the Brigade was also directed
by the Inspector General to the
camp of the 1st Separate Battalion
as a model tor the Brigade. The
Battalion went to camp under the
charge of Capt. Arthur Brooks to
whom unquestionably belongs the
credit for the splendid record for
efficiency made by the organization
and we trust the day is not far dis
tant when he will be permanently
placed in the position he has so
fairly earned and for which he is SO
excellently qualified and fitted, By

OUR POLICE FORCE.

1t is quite evident that Commits
sioner Wight means to be in touch
with his subordinate officials. He
and Major Moore of of the Police
department will no doubt have a
first class set of officers after the
old ones have been retired. COM
missioner Wight ought to have an
assistant Chief of Police. We
know of no better man than Mr..
Sylvester. He is an active and de-
serving official, who is entitled to
promotion. We know Major
Moore would gladly welcome such
an able assistant.

A NEW LEADERSHIP.

1t is the policy of the admins
tration to establish a new leader
ship. This is not only prevalent
among the colored party leaders,
but among the whites as well. This
is indorsed, not only by the party
workers, but by those who have
been from time to time relegated to
the rear. his has been the policy
of The BEE, with one or two ex-
ceptions. There are among the
Negroes of this country, young men
who have brilliant minds and are
actively engaged in advancing this
government. Whether this new
leadership will be successful, time
alone can only tell. We hope to
see this new leadership win and be
successful. 1t should be remem-
bered also that it is not good poll
tics to relegate all of the old repre-
sentatives to the rear. The Ameri.
can Negro holds in high esteem
some few of the great Negroes who
have stood up manfully for the re-
publican party.
The questio is a,ked, what does
this new leadership mean? 1t is as
simple as one, two and three 1t
means that new and young men are
to be given an opportunity to
demonstrate what they can do. 1t
means that young and more active
men of our race will be given a
chance to prove that they are equal
to the task. The President should
be commended. This is the policy
that Mr.. Blaine would have adopt
ed had he been elected President of
the Uniied States. A new leader
ship would have been established
years ago, but the defeat of Mr..
Blaine prevented it.

they teach for the money they can
pet and not for the benefit of the
pupils. Who it that works for love
and affection? Even the preachers
who say they have been called by
God are always scheming to have
their pay Increased. After that
they scheme to bluff their members
out of suit of clothes and horse
and carriage. Are these men
preaching for love? They say God
has called them to preach. Why
then should teacher be condemned
because she gets too old to teach?
Has she not given all Of her life in
training the young mind? Why
not retire such teacher on pen
SION? They are told to get m 'r-
ried. Their lives are made misera-
BILE by teaching, why should they
make their burden heavier? All
teachers cannot marry. Some have
already married to their sorrow
How many hundred of teachers to-
day who had the bloom of youth on
their cheeks and the simplicity OF a
child, have become physical wrecks:
Our old teachers should be COM
mended; they should be cared for
just the same as our old soldiers.
There should be a school pension
fund. Teachers should be COM
pelIed to contribute so much
monthly out of their salary, just
the same as our police
fund is increased. Benefits
should be given to increase the
school pension fund. Let our effi-
cient superintendent and supervis-
ing principals suggest plans Let
all the schools take hold and in
stead of abusing teacher because
she is getting old, retire him or her
on a pension.

We would like to see the Afro
