FOSSILS.

Washington has myriads of cultured
high minded and big'hearted citizens,
whose souls bubble over with generosity
and public spirit; but their earnest ell
deavors are time after timechecked by
a class of Negroes, whose tendency is
always backward. They are fossils
who never see any good in new men
or new ideas, and who never succeed
with the old ideas that they are 10th
to abandon. Realizing that they have
long since outlived their usefulness, the
knots Of envy upon their heads lhieken
when contemplating the progress OF
younger rivals, and they delight to
sneer at the efforts of those who have
supplanted them in the public eye.
They make trouble in churches, rattle
around ia chairs that real teachers
should be called to fill, and burden the
public press with mossback effusions
that they endeavor to palm off as simon
pure wit and wisdom. Washington has
too many ofthese fossiliferous nuisances
and if an Omniscient Providence should
ordain their transportation to another
seaport, We would say "Thy will be
donep

HON, CHARLES N. FERGUSON.

Washington always extends a warm
welcome to the Hon Charles M. Fer.
guson, of San Antonio, Taxas. he is
the persOnifcation of the progressive
spirit that has given birth to a new dis
pensation in the great Southwest, and
since the demise of N. Wright Quincy,
Mr.. Ferguson is the one man who has
shown the broad capacity and wide ex
perience that the people have a right
to expect in the leader who would es
say to wear his mantle. Mr.. Ferguson
is a natural born organizer. He knows
his ground always, and can accurately
measure the public demand. He has
the force of character that draws to his
standard the elements that stand for
substance and authority. While al
ways loyal to the republican party,
giving his time, energy and influence
to bring about harmonious action at
conventions and at the polls, Mr.. Fer
gus0n's services have never been re
warded, The time is now ripe for a
proper recognition of his value as a
party leader. Many opportunities are
at the administrations disposal, and
such men should be kept in a position
to render aid by tongue or pen when
the occasion demands it. An honor
bestowed upon Mr. Ferguson would be
considered a personal favor to evely
colored voter in the section which he 81
satisfactorily represents.

continued attacks upon Senator Hanna
have been unwsrranted, and his latest
assault upon President Roosevelt is
an offense that for viciousness is with
out a parallel. The Cleveland Gazette
has clearly won its spurs as the ''yel-

Seriou ,ly, we are at loss to know
why this insOlent puppy should feel
called upon to bark eternally at the
heels of The Colored American. We
have thrown business in his direction,
as we have have done in the cases of
many others, for large advertisers fre'
quently prefer single and central dis

fouler insinuations as to our business

a shallow brain, inspired by little
soul, gangrened by putriderscent malice
and low cunning.

This is the open season foE mounte-
banks and charlatans
We have seen the unspeakable jack
al massuerading in the lions skin,
likewise the hungry wolf travelling in
sleeps clothing, the sable jaekdaw
strutting in peacOek's feathers. pious
pulpit frauds wearing the livery of
heaven to more effectively serve the
devil, and characterless adventures
posing as race leaders-but, all these
Grass hypoerites and puerile pretenders
are as mole hills to a mountain peak
when compared with that journalistic
pirate and political assassin, II. G.
Smith, (Half-Crszy Smith, if you
please), who essays to edit a boiler
plate excuse for a newspaper, called
the Cleveland Gazette. They pale into
the insignifcance of the tallow-dip
when it is brought into competition
with the glowing electric light. This
man Smith stands in class alone
unequaled for mendacity, unexcelled
in cheek, uuapprOachable in capacity for
mischief, unrivslled as 8 purveyor of
"facts" derived from pure Imagination,
and last, but not least, bears a reputa-
ton throughout the land that is un-
envied and unenviable. More nearly
than any other sheet that claims ma
tional attention, he has caught the spir'
it of the age of horseless carriages,
wireless telegrsphy, smokeless powder,
and chainless wheels, by solving
the problem of publishing ''nevs.
