THE MAN FOR THE PLACE.

The woods are full of candidates
for the editorship of the Christian
Recorder, the great journal of the
A. M. E. Church. 1t is to the in.
terest Of the cause of the great A.
M. e. church to see to it that a
layman is put at the head of this
organ if the people are to liquidate
the debt that is now against it.
1t should be remembered that the
ministers have the bishoprick, the
ministers have the financial Sec
retaryship F.; they have all of the fat
churches and to concede the
editorship Of the Christian Re-
corder to a layman is only fair and
just. Already a large number of
the ministerial delegates have ex-
pressed themselves favorable to
the proposition. If this Office is to
go to a laymau, the West is entitled
to the Office. II this Office goes to
the West Prof. John H. Jackson
Of this city is the man for the
place. He has bnt few equals in
the country and no superiors as a
scholar and a gentleman. He is
an author, an editor, a Christian
and a gentleman. He is widely
known and has a host Of support
ers both in the East and West who
will stay by him to a finish. Pro-
lessor jackson will be a credit to
the editorship of this great organ
and q man whom the race will feel
proud Of. He has been tried in
the balance and has not been found
wanting.-Western Enterprise.
