University, a member of the Sigma

superintendent of the Nashville,
Chattanooga, and St. Louis Rail-
road, murdered Henry Hildebrand,
a clerk in Speckle's Market, at
San Francisco September 18th.
Rosser is steward of Company B in
a white Tennessee volunteer regi.
ment. Those who witnessed the
affair say that it was a cold blood
ed murder. This is the second
murder committed by white volun-

THE EMPRESS OF AUSTRIA

The cruel murder Of the Empress
of Austria emphasizes the social
condition on the European Cont
nent and is warning to the Amer
ican people to religiously guard
against the propagation of senl-
ments revolutionary of stable gov
ernment. The spirit of anarchy is
one of growth, raped and disas-
trous. 1t was first manifested in
feeble manifestations of resistance
to constitute authority and disre-
gard for the Lives and liberties of
others. 1t has grown until kings
and potentates are apprehensive for
their own lives. The lesson is an
easy one. Let disregard for law
and order and the natural and
social rights of man be encouraged
in this country and you Will have
set to work forces which must
eventuate in the destruction of the
very life of this Republic. Let
lynch-law and high-handed dis
elimination and injustice be long
practiced In a community aud the
effect is so contagious character
as to poison the fountains of JUS
tice and become baleful i'll its gen.
eral results. Let justice be done
to all and the people doom which
awaits Europe, may be averted. In
the wisdom of social restrain and
the development of a just regard of
the rights of our neighbors may
lodge the hope of the negro as we'll
as of the white race.

NOT YET OVER.

The opinion expressed by Gen.
Wheeler to the effect that the war
with Spain is not yet over, as showed
by many who from the first believed
that before Spain would relinquish
her hold upon Cuba and Porto
Rico and especially the PHILIPPINES
they would 60 to the very farther
est extent of diplomacy as well as
war. The fact is quite apparent
that, before the Peace Commission
will be able TO accomplish anything
in the way of restoring order, more
blood must be shed and more
Spanish villiany perpetrated. Now
that Admiral Dewey has made a
request for more ships and more
military forces this government
ought not only furnish that distin-
guished officer what he needs to
thoroughly subjugate the Philli-
pines, but it ought to prosecute
vigorous policy with respect to
Porto Rico.
To allow the results of the bril-
liant success of our soldier to be
offset neutralized or even destroyed
by future emergencies would be to
make the greatest blunder of the
century. We have routed the
Spaniards and we should not die
tate in no uncertain terms what
we must have and that without
further cavil.

There is more Catarrh IN this section
of the county than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable
For great many years doctors pro-
nounced it local disease, and pres rib
ed local remedies, and by constantly
failing to cure with local treatment,
pronounced it incurable Science has
proven catarrh to be constitutional
disease, and, therefore, requires con-
stitutlonal treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. ]. Cheney
& Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only con-
stItutional cure on the market. 1t is
taken internally in doses from 10 drops
to teaspoonful. 1t acts directly on

lars for any case it fails to cure. Send

"The colored people are hocking to

OUR HIGH SCHOOL.

The BEE has frequently called
the attention of our colored High
School to the colored trustees and
it seems that its condition is from
wrose to worse. The attention of
MIR. Ross is now called to its bad
condition. The next move is to
put an incompetent woman at the
head of the business High School.
Prof. Il. M. Brown, teacher of
physics, intends to resign because
he will no longer serve under in
competent teachers or persons who
are continually jepodizing the
interest of his school. The colored
High School is greatly in need of
some good material. Are the
people to suffer much longer.

REVOLT OF THE NEGRO
VOTER.

The men who as Commissioners
owe their places to the solidity OF
the colored voters of the repub-
lican ticket preferred to reappoint
the entire board of assessors rather
than accord the 10000 colored
citizens a representative place In
the District government. Is 1t
strange that the colored votes OF
the country revolt: The District
of Columbia case was watched with
deep interest from one end Of the
country to the other. In Mary
land the colored approximates
$4,000 and almost to man it was
cast for the republican candidates,
had it been cast against them,
neither Gov. Loundes, the State
officials nor the republican electors
would have succeeded.
What are the facts? NotwIth-
standing the Governor has in his
gift more than one than one thous-
and appointments, he has not
deemed it proper to appoint a
colored man to single place. Now
contrast this with the liberality Of
Tammany Hall and see if you can
not divise the reason why the col
ored voters are in revolt. In
Virginia they are securing in
dependent candidates of their own
men in every republican district.
In Baltimore, Mayor Malster has
treated his colored allies with fair
ness and consideration, still on the
whole, the sentiment among the
colored voters is largely to the
effect, that Senator German and
ex-Mayor Latrobe have always
treated them with greater consld-
Grafton than the republicans from
whom they had much to expect.
In Marylsnd under Senator Cor
mans leadership, no unfriendly
legislation has ever been passed,
consequently colored men can join
his ranks without incuring ostra-
cism on the part of their people.
The trouble seems to arise from
forgetfulness on the part of suber-
dinates of the administration, as TO
the means by which they are en-
abled to WELD their power. They
forget that the colored vote was an
essential factor in the late contest
and is likely to be SO in the next.
The earliest opportunity must be
sought to arrest this diseffection,
otherwise the colored vote will be
in revolt again when a national
contest is on. 1t is not likely that
a democratic administration sup
ported by colored allies as was the
republicans, would for moment
allow its appointees to slap its
faithful friends in the face as was
done in the District of Columbia. |
The A fro-American of Baltimore
says: Tammany Hall has put more
colored men in places in the last |
six months than the republicans
in the previous twenty-five years.
1t seems that the republican off,
cials expect the votes of the colored
men on the issues of the civil war,
forgetful of the fact that nearly
forty years have elapsed since
Emancipation, there would seem
to be as much reason to expect the
white man to vote now as did his
ancestors a hundred years ago.
The conditions are different and
the negro will vote as interest may
dictate now.

SIGHT OF HER COLORED
LOVER.

CLOSED THE SCOTCH LASSIES HEART
TO ALL ARGUMENT-sH SHE WILL NOW
MARRY HIM.
New YORK, September II.-Magg1e
Wood, the bonnie Scotch lassie who
came here from Edinburg, Scotland. TO
marry Martin Hamilton, Philadelph-
la colored man, is still a prisoner at
Barge office
Rev. Francis Carruthers, a Scotch
man, of Taunton, Mass ,arrsved in the
city yesterday to try and convince the
young woman that she was doing an
unwise thing. Shortly after his arrival
Darnald O'Reilly. of Harrisburg, Pa,
called on the girl. Mr.. O'RTilly is
we'll known among the Scotch people,
and, as he put it, for the sake of coun-
trymen he had come on TO try and per-
saude the woman to change her mind.
For long time Mr.. Carruthers and
Miss Wood.
DISCUSSED THE CASE.
Notwithstanding she is strict Pres
byterian, she refused to allow anyargu-
ment of the minister to convince her
that she was doing wrong.
The clergyman, disheartened at his
failure to change the decision of the
girl, reported to Assistant Commits
sioner McSweeny, who decided TO hold
Maggie few days more
t. v. Powderly, Commissioner Cen
eral OF Immigration, entered the build
ing at that time.
'Why hot send her up into the negro
colony to see the life that the poor
lead there?" he suggested.
UP town the party started, going
through the various tough loca tiles
where whites and blacks intermingle
The girl reCoiled from the scenes she
witnessed. She said that to marry
Martin would be un2ise. The party
returned to the barge office. where
before the Bord of Special Inquiry
Maggie said that she no longer desir-
ed to have.any thing to do with HAM
ilton.
CHANGED HER MIND.
Just after the party had reached bar
ge office Hamilton and t. Thomas
Fortune, editor of the New York Age,
appeared.
Hamilton was admitted to see the
girl AS soon as the face ofthe black |
man appeared the girl changed I
She cried and she smiled, and when |
Hamilton stepped toward her she |
stood up and stretched out her arms. |
The two embraced. After being
separated the woman was taken into |
Commissioner McSweeny's private Of !
fice, where she said:
''Oh, Gamma think of anything or
any one but Martin love him, in
deed do, and will marry him if | |
hae to go to Scotland to do it''.
Hamilton to-day said he would
never give her up.
Meantime Maggie is in the detention
room at the Barge Office, where she
passes her time in crying softly to her
self. Since she has been detained she
has not eaten a morsel of food.

SlsTERsvILLE, w. Va, Jan. 21.-Yes-
terday morning, William Mayhew, a
deck-hand on the steamer Fred Wilson,
fell from bulk head on one of the
barges and was killed. His remains
were brought here and prepared for
burial and sent to his home at AL

The corner investigated and decided
that death was the result of accident,
and that an inquest was unnecessary;
but on receipt of request from the
o'Neil Company, owners Of the boat,
for such proceeding, a jury was i'm
paneled and Coroner Kahle's first
judgment sustained.
The deceased was a widower and

Muskingum Improvement.

The Secretary of War has submitted
to the river. and harbor committee OF
congress Engineer Edmund Moeser's
estimate, of the probable cost Of i'm
proving the Muskingum river so as to
make it navigable to Dresden. Mr..
Moeser in 1895 made survey .of the
river between GAINESVILLE and Dresden
and determined that the only thing
necessary to allow steamers to make
trips to Dresden would be to build a
dam and lock at Ellis, a short way
above the c. & NJ. V. railroad bridge,
with little dredging at places along
the channel. Lately the Secretary of
War asked Mr. Moeser how much the
improvement would cost, and he fig
ured out that SILL would cover it.
The engineer believes that another
dam at Dresden would make the river
navigable to Coshocton, but he has not
made survey to confirm his theory
