the reputation of our colored SOL
diers with the view to producing an
adverse sentiment at the North
where they are respected and fairly
treated. He also showed affrontery
and malice unprecedented in the
history of this country. Instead of
seeking the just punishment of the
criminals, he iustifies 1t and thus
gives encouragement to lawlessness
and open murder.
For our part We are not surprised
at the vilIainy of the Southern
whites. They are capable of any
form or any degree of vice or crime
when colored people are concerned.
But we are both surprised and
disgusted, when we hear colored
men who pretend to have the true
interest of the race at heart, attempt
to excuse the lawlessness of the
Southern white people and insist
that they are our friends. 1t Is still
worse to claim that the Northern
people are not our friends. 1t was
through their friendship that We
were emancipated and panoplied
with citizenship, aud it was also
through their generosity that many
of the Southern leaders, who are
now donouncing them were edu-
Gated in schools and colleges of the
North and South.
The Southern colored leader is
obligated to the Northern man for
all he has ever had that is worth
having, and it comes with very poor
grace for him to seek to poison the
breast that protected him from the
serpent of oppression, ignorance,
and slavery. AS was said in the
pulpit Of Calvary Church, New
York City, on last Sunday, little
Americans may die and 60 to their
little graves; but true Americans
and friends of progress and JUS
tlce will do all in their power to
advance the best interests of all of
the people without regard to race
or color, the opinion of the rebel
governor of Georgia to the con-
trary Notwithstanding.

A COD DAY!

1t is a cold day in Washington wher
| Brother Chase's Bee" is not sting
ing somebody. Editor Chase is an
UNIQUE character and his papers wal
paint is always visible. AS is his Gus.
tom and apparent delight, IN the last
issue of the Bee" he jumps on the
CoLored American for urging the col
ored citizens of the District to establish
business enterprises Of their own and
quit handing over their cash to white
firms who will not even employ col
ored clerk. He closes with telling the
american editor: "Get behind me,
satan, thou shalt not tempt the Lord S
annointed." And now the Ameriean
editor may be expected to deal with
the "annointed, and there'll be music
in Washington.
When colored men and women
can organize properly The BEE has
no objections. II solored men and
women expect to force themselves
into stores controlled by white men
by asserting that they will not
patronize them, they are mistaken.
What the THE BEES contemporary
wants is to prevent the patronage of
the colored people from going to
stores owned and controlled by
white people, if they refuse TO em-
ploy colored boys and girls. This
is not the way to command respect
Let the colored people take the
money they spend In the summer
on excursions and build stores and
cease praying and having reviyals
all the winter, then they will not
be paupers. The white people W II

the white people. Let the white
people take their patronage from
THE american and You will See how
quickly it will die. The colored
people will not support it., and no
one knows it better than The Ameri-
can.
The great mistake some colored
people make is, to believe that all
the white people are opposed to
them. The negro is an enemy to
himself. Yes, it would be a cold
day if the negroes depend upon
each other.

THE EXCISE BOARD,

There may be some prejudice to
the Excise Board by temperance
refOrmers and the Anti-Saloon
League, but it must be admitted
that tbe board never rejects liquor
license unless The rules of the board
are violated. There never has been
a rejection by that board of any
license without cause. The board
is to be commended and not con-
demned, ana Tbs BEE is confident
that no better or fairer men could
have been selected by The District
Commissioners.
The Washington bee., 1899-03-25

uniformity seems sadly apparent.
There may have been no disposition
to discriminate against coloreI 1
female, but the results would not
tend to inspire people with the
notion that there was none. Ii a
white woman can claim mercy on
the ground that she has child to
care for, certainly a colored woman
might claim the same who has two.

1t is all very nice for Governor
Gambler to say that the horrible
murderer in Palmetto were "un-
justifiable" and a s'disgrace to
civilization;" but he must first
show that the majority of his white
constituents are opposed to the
murder of colored people upon any
pretext whatsoeve. and that civil.
ization exists in the state. We
believe in a civilization that civil

MURDER AND ASSASSINA-
TON.

1t is evident that the Government
is powerless to protect the negro.
1t is only question Of time when
justice will be vindicated so far as
the negro is concerned. The day
VII come, it the United States fail
to protect their citizens when they
will be reduced to poverty like
Spain. Let the world look with dis
gust at these outrages upon inno-
cent and inoffensive negroes.

A PROPHECY PARTIALLY
FULFILLED.

Jefferson in his notes of Virginia,
in discussing the custom and man
ners In that state, gives expression
to the following: "Indeed | trem
ble for my country when | reflect
that God Is just, and his justice
cannot sleep forever; that consld-
ering numbers natare and natural
means only, a revolution of the
wheel of fortune, an exchange of
situstion is among possible events;
that it may become probable by
supernatural interference. The
Almighty has no attribute which
can take side with us in such a
contest. The spirit of the mast r
is abating that of the slave rising
from the dust, his condition molli-
flying the way | hope preparing
under the auspices OF heaven, for a
total emancipation and that this
is disposed, in the order Of events
to be with the consent of the mas
ters, rather than by their exterpa.
tion." This prophecy has been
fulfilled as it relates to the physi-
cal slavery of the colored people:
but their total emancipation has
not been acknowledged. The
master was forced to aban don phys |
cal slavery through the awful
nstrumentality of war. The bloody |
Syrant and political robber may, |
through the ordinance of Divine
Providence be compelled to ackowl
edge the civil and political eman-
,ipation of our people. Whatever
The means the colored people will
10 their part toward the result.
