SENATOR HANNA ELECTED
HE DEFEATS THE
COMBINATION.
Columbus, o., Jan. 18th,

Columbus, o., Jan. 18th,
Marcus A. Hanna was elected to
succeed himself for both the long and
short terms as United States Senator !
today. A joint ballot of the legislature !,
gave him 73 votes to 10 for Robert E !
N cKisson, of Cleveland. and one for
Iohn 7. Lentz, of Columbus. The |
general assembly met In joint session
at IL O'Clock with all present but Rep
resntative Creamer, who was i'll.
Lieut.. Gov Jones presided and
immediatly announced that vote
would be taken to elect a United
States Senator for the short term.
Senator Marcus A. Hanna WASH omi-
mated by Senator Garfield, who made
brilliant speech. The name of Rob-
ert E. Mckisson, mayor of Cleveland,
was presented by Senator Burke, an
anti Hanna Republican. He said there
was no gap which could be filled alone
by one man.
Representative Roberts, of Cleve-
land, seconded Hanna's nomination
and Representative Bramley, also of
Cleveland stood sponsor for NJ McKiSSons
The vote was taken and resulted:
Hanna, 70 McKisson, 10 and Congress
man Lentz of Columbus, 1. The ballot
for the long term resulted as did the
former Mr. Hanna had just the re-
quisite number of votes for election.
There are las members in both houses
and "a is bare majority. Had repre-
the vote for Lentz been G ven to
McKiSson, the result would have been
| the same.
There is great rejoicing among the
friends of Senator Hanna over the re-
suit of the long and hard battle. The
Republicans who voted against Hanna
are Senator Burke, Representatives
Bramley, Scott, Rutan, Jones and
Otis, and Speaker Mason In the
senate today Senator Burke, of Cuyah-
oga. rose to question of personal pri-
vilege and introduced a resolution
providing for an investigation of all
bribery charges and especially that
$I,75o was offered for vote for NJ A.
Hanna The resolution provides for
Burke, Fincke. Long, Garfield, and
!. Robertson as the committee on inves.
tlgation.
Alexander offered an amendment
that the investigation include members
of the senate who have betrayed theil
political trust. This was lost, Io to II
Garfield gave notice that he woulc
absolutely decline to serve on the
committee. He said there was no mem
Der of the senate but wanted an in
vestigation, but the committee named
! had already prejudiced the case. Lieu
, tenant Governer Jones said he haC
no power to excuse Garfield. Sena
tor Warren said the language of th'
resolution would unbench a u G
because the resolution prejudiced th'
! case. He appeald to the honor O
a members of the other side.
He said we shall court an investiga
tion and show that the bribery charg
is mere political trick to steal from
e the people that which they have deCid
Il ed upon. Any member who would serv
# on the committee under the resolution
:. would stultify himself. Senator Burke
v said he would withdraw from the com
: mittee in favor of Senator Sullivan.

THE ELECTION OF SENATOR
HANNA.

The reelection Of Hon. NJ. a.
Hanna to the Senate is of more
than ordinary significance. 1t
stamps upon the times the necessity
of abiding by the instructions OF
the people as well as the penalty OF
Iscariotism. The recalcitrants who
leagued with the Democrats to de.
feat the will of the party majority
have met with the sort of thrash
ing which is due them and from
the effects of which they will not
soon recover. McKisson, the ring
leader will surely be showed under
at the next election while the rest
will come in for their share of op.
probrium.
We congratulate the party and
Senator Hanna on their victory fol
straight republicanism. After all
party loyalty is the only thing that
wins.

WILL CELEBRATE JUDGE
KIMBALL'S

appointment? Remarked the DEMO-
CRATIC BAILIFF DARR, IN THE POLICE
COURT. The democratic bailiff, or del
putty marshal Darr, CT the Police Court,
In conversation with colored attorney
on Wednesday said that the officials
in the Police Court would on the 10th
day of this month celebrate the victory
of Judge l. G.. Kimball's reappoint-
ment over THE BEE. Yes THE BEE
has opposed Judge Kimball's reap
pointment it is still opposed to his re-
appointment as Judge of the P | i e
Court. The BEE has no favors to ask
Judge Kimball, or his democratic
baillff Mr.. Darr, will have an occasion
no doubt, to attend his own political
funeral after the conhrmatin of the new
marshal. Chickens often come home
to rOOSt.
The Washington bee., 1898-01-15
JUDGE KIMBALL RENOM-
MATED.

President Mckinley has seen fit
to renominate Hon. |. G.. Kimball,
Judge of the Police Court to sue
ceeo himself. THE BEE as well as
others have opposed this reappoint-
ment and endeavored toconvince the
President that the reappointment of
Judge Kimball would be a mistake.
We believed then as we do now that
Judge Kimball's reapppointr ent
is an unwise one and all imposition
upon the people in this community.
Personally we like Judge Kimball
and believe him to be a man Of
honor, but as a Judge of the Police
court he has not exercised that judi
cial mind that one would suppose
from his six years experience. Just
how the President could make up
his mind to reappoint Judge Kim
ball we are unable to state.
The BEE has opposed him and
it did all in it's power to defeat him
but failed. We suppose it was the
intention of the President to satisfy
the temperance elements who are a
set of religious cranks. Judge
Kimball has made mistakes no one
will attempt to deny, but to what
extent no one knows but the law
yer who practices before him. One
thing The BEE will give Judge
Kimball credit for he has made
a bold fight and has never
lost his temper nor has he abused
any one who has opposed his reap
pointment. Now that he is reap
pointed he should be confirmed and
so far as The BEE is concerned il
used every honorable means to de-
feat him but failed and since il
failed it will not oppose him any
further.
The President we suppose wa
made satisfied that Judge Klmbal
should be reappointed and he Wa
, reappointed, Notwithstanding tn
opposition to him. Judge Klmbal
is a conscientious man, we believe
| but his DECISIONS in minor offense
5 have not been in conformity to lay
which we can show.
v He is reappointed and since tn
f President is satisfied, he ought t
c be confirmed. 1t is mistake.
The Washington bee., 1898-01-15

Among the many friends of the
BEE we are proud to mention Mr..
B. A. Allen, chief of the Record
ing Division of the Auditor for the
P. o. D. In the conduct Of his
Office, Mr.. Allen shows marked
ability, fairness and manliness.
Toward the clerks Of his office,
without regard to race, color or re-
ligion, lie has maintained a rule of
absolute fairness. The colored
clerks feel assured that they have in
Mr.. Allen true friend. Messrs.
Jackson and Richardson, two col
ored clerks in Mr.. Aliens division
are enthusiastic in their praise and
our knowledge of the character OF
their chef fully justifies it. We
bespeak for Mr.. Allen a successful
ad dministration.

JUDGE MCCOMAS.

The fight of the Maryland Re-
publicans against Hon. Louis E.
McComas is unjust and cowardly.
Judge McComas would be a fine
representative in the Senate from
the State of Maryland. We are
confident that he is the choice of
the reople. We still hope that the
outcome will be in Judge McCemas
favor.
The Washington bee., 1898-01-15
JUDGE SCOTT CONFIRMED.

The confirmation of Judge Scott
on Tuesday by the Senate showed
that he was the choice Of the people,
Since he has been on the bench he
has become popular and there Is
no doubt but that he will give
entire satisfaction to the people,
THE BEE doesn't believe in
sentiment, that is to say, if per
son is guilty Of an offense he should
be convicted. The convictions un-
der Judge Scott, thus far have
been tempered with mercy and
justice. The President has made
no mistake in his appointment.
The BEES prediction is always
correct,

OUR SCHOOL SYSTEM.

If there is any department of our
school system which is in need
of the fine-tooth comb, it is the
High School. In the first place this
city can boast of having the young
est and at the same time the most
fastidious set Of teachers the coun-
try over. This is compliment
which, while it may not come up
to the best idea, has yet tinge of
colored superiority over other sys
TENS In times past, teachers in
our High School have been selected
because they knew something and
had some interest in the well being
of the children or parents. Now
the test of acceptability seems to
lay in consideration of fine dress,
fine looks and fine parentage. Then
too our High School can boast of cur
riculum which is simply gorgeous.
We no longer pay special attention
lothose branches which are useful
in ordinary affairs and upon which
most men and women have wor
their title To usefulness and respect
bu' devote ages, as it were, toward
ginger breadism and all that help
to develop vanity and pride and
foolishness. Aside from the few
struggling notions a pupi! gets o
mathematics, history, and rhetoric
while at school, he might as well no
be in school. The redeemlng feature
of there is any in the High Schoo
is that which may be found in tn,
training which Prof. Brown gives
when he has an opportunity, to hi
pupils. He is practical worker
believes that we must know how t,
do something instead of constantly
talking about it. He is of tn,
opinion that we do more when W,
by experiment, detect useful ele
ments which can be utilized toward
making mankind happier ant
better than when we after the US,
Of any amount of application an(
resort TO ponies" discover a Greel
not. Evidently there is something
wrong in the general management
of the High School. We do not
nor could we Justly blame any par
ticular teacher or set of teachers
But we think it is the genera
scheme of construction which is in
error and hope soon to see thu
weak POINTS strengthened, useless
timber removed and a course o
study pursued which in some sof
of way meets the requirements o
the race. We cannot afford t,
send our boys and girls to school t
be instructed in foppery, ginge

THE CIVIL SERVICE.

WHAT | SAW AND HEARD.

WHAT l SAW AND HEARD.
The Ohio senatorial fight was
the all absorbing topic this week.
Senator Hanna showed himself to
be man of nerve and brilliant
parts. No man has the confidence
of the country more than Mr..
Hanna.
Yes the lawyers have been dis
cussing the judgeship this week.
Judge Kimball has been quite anx-
ious TO know about himself, sup
pose he is now satisfied as the
agony is over.
There is a great deal to be done
In our public schools. / am of the
opinion that the industrial depart
ment is IN need of reorganization.
The trustees are too slow.
Mr.. Harry Cummings was in town
this week on business. Harry is a
jovial fellow and will no doubt
make good Councilman.
Mrs Trustee Terrell returned to
the city last week and gave a
graphic description of her south
ern trip. She was royalty enter
tanned and her speeches were re.
ceived with enthusiasm.
The civil service law will prob.
ably be modified. Indeed some
thing had better be done.
The District Commissioners are
very slow in making colored ap
pointments. Not a colored repub
lican has yet been appointed under
the District government.
Register B. K. Bruce has gotter
down to business. He has answer
ed upwards of fully 5000 telegrams
and letters of congratulations since
his appointment. The BEE is salts
fed that it made no mistake when
it Said that Mr.. Bruce was tn,
most popular man in the country
! The President has made no mistake
Commissioner j. W. Ross is wei
ard hearty and is quite sure tha
matters will now SO on smoothly.
At the end of the year there will
be some important changes in ou
public schools. Our schools ar
very much in need of reorgan
ization.
There seems to be kicking repub
licans all over the country. Thi
is on account of the party bein
disorganized.
The present excise board is rath
