cial service for capable citizens of Afri-
can descent which may be productive
of great results in the future.
The Times does not doubt that the
experiment will be success so far as
Prof. Greener is concerned. The
British officials in India have been
educated into the recognition of the
equality of men of all colors; the
Indian civil service is largely filled
with capable native officials who are
regarded as in every respect the peers
Of their white associates 1t is true
that the dusky HIndoo is of Aryan ex
traction, and that the blood which
flows in his veins is essentially the
same as that which colonized Europe
in the misty dawn of history but the
average man does not bother himself
much with fine-spun chronological dis
tinction. He is more apt to be guild
ed by ocular impressions, and he does
not readily see or draw any distinction
between the dark scholar and gentle
men who drive. their lineage from
Hindoo or from African sources.
Therefore Prof. Greener is assured OF
a kindly welcome from the British off,
cials in Bombay and he will do moth
ing to forfeit their respect.

A NEGRO OR THE EXCISE
BOARD.

1t is hoped that the Commits
toner's will see the Importance OF
appointing a representative colored
man on the excise board of this
city. Indeed every colored person
who has applied for license either
for bar room or hotel bar license
has been turned down. If lieu
tenant in any precinct has any
prejudices against person his IL
cense is rejected on his recommen-
dation. Within the past year sew
eral colored citizens have applied
for bar room and hotel licenses
and they have all been turned
down. 1t is almost impossible for
respectable colored house to OBJ
tain license under the present
board.
The Mckinley House license was
rejected and for what reason no
one knows. Some of the most
representative colored citizens in
this country board at this hotel
and yet the propretors of this
hotel could not get their license.
The Douglass Hotel bar room IL
cense was rejected because Kelley.
the lieutenant of that precinct, did
not favor it. Kelley has no good
blood for the douglass house any
way, and as soon as these officers
are given little authority they try
to over do the thing. 1t is about
time for Ke LEY to retire any way
and if Commissioner Wight, who
has charge of the police department,
realizes the Importance of change
the people will be more than graft
fed.
If you will only take the trouble
to investigate some of the assess
ments made by this board the peo-
pie would readily consent to a
change. We need colored repre-
sentative on the excise board and
it is hoped that President McKin
lev will see to it that we have one.

The educational convention

difficult to tell what the impression
is regarding the calibre of our

other parts of the country and this
occasion will furnish us an oppor-

BUNCOMBE.

Judging from the discussions
now going on in the Senate cam
paign buncombe is now being man
ufactured for the coming rresiden-
tial fight. Aside from the usual
talk about octopus of greed, boss
ism, social disruption and the like
the old issue of the free and un-
limited coinage of silver at the ratio
of 16 to | looms in towering pro-
portions, and the combatants are
lining up for bitter and it is to be
hoped decisive battle.
That the question of free silver
is not settled cannot be doubted, as
is evidenced by the action of nearly
every state convention held since
the election of Mckinley. And
the enemies of the gold standard
are quietly circulating literature in
which the delayed prosperity, the
failure of Cuba to obtain the assist
ance of the United States in their
struggle for independence and a
thousand and one other incidents
which have no logical bearing on
the financial policy of the Govern
ment are referred to as the result
of the failure of the people to adopt
q double standard.
1t is therefore not inadvisable tn
warn Republicans against the fal-
lacies distributed and to urge a
careful study of the question from
all of its bearings. The national
committee would do much good by
sending out thousands of the con-
vincing pamphlets which did such
effective service in the last cam.

New YORK CITY,
January IS, 1898.

EDITOR OF THE BEE:
The friends of Lawyer 7. McCant
Stewart read in your Issue of January
~ an article attacking him. We are
confident that the article was written
by Prof. Richard Theodore Greener.
Will you permit me, because | know
YOU are too liberal minded not to allow
an admirer of yours to tell few rea-
sons why Prof. Greener is opposed to
Mr. Stewart?
Prof. Greener is not satisfied with
his Bombay consulship. He has so
notified his near friends in Washington.
He has been lead to believe that he
can be made superintendent of the COL
ored public schools of your city and is
anxious to trade off the Bombay mis-
sion for that place. An article ap.
peared in the washington Post"
week or SO ago to the effect that the
people of New York are not satisfied
with Prof. Greener leaving the coun-
try. This is all false as we are too
glad to get rid of him. | am credit
ably informed that the A M. E.
Church has been asked to make this
trade. We all know in New York that
Prof. Greener was removed from the
colored public schools of Washington
because he couldn't get along. Would
he get along as superintendent? Are
the citizens of Washington asleep, Mr..
Editor, and unable to select a man
from among them?
Lawyer T. MtCant Stewart is gen.
tie and scholar. He has tte respect
and confidence of the Negroes of this
country and If he did once support the
Democratic party he would be too
much of man to accept a two dollar
per diem place as second chief of a
Negro political bureau.
Respectfully yours,
AMOS WILKS.

A NEW POLICE COURT.

The BEE is of the opinion that
the District is in need of new po-
lice court building. The present
structure is inconvenient, poorly
constructed with but little accom-
modations. 1t is utterly impossible
to properly ventilate either the up
per or lower court. There is no
accommodation for male or female
witnesses and they are compelled
to go elsewhere.
There are to be several changes
at the court shortly. 1t is under
stood that at least two colored bail
ifs will be appointed under the new
regime.

w. Calvin Chase:
| have been informed that you are

w. T. Menard.
Your information is correct. hence
you need not go any further, but
directly into the Courts and let the
matter be there ventilated. Don't
