New truth when it comes into the
world has a stormy welcome. for most
part. The. old, foolish, world, 1t will
not learn that Divine Truth comes out
of Heaven, and must and win by
eternal law rule here on earth; admit
the new Truth, it is as sunlight,
blessed, fruitful for all; resist the new
truth, it has to become as lightning,
and reduce all to ashes before the
blessedness can arrive Thomas Car.

GOVERNMENT

SEPARATE GOVERNMENT
There is every reason 70 believe
that Congress will allow the color
ed people to govern their own
schools.
The ninety thousand colored peo-
pie in the city, two-thirds OF whom
are taxpayers, should be given an
opportunity to control their own
schools as heretofore. If this I'M
porCant question would be submit
ted to a vote of the colored peo-
pie The Bee is confident that the
sentiment would be unanimous in
its favor. The colored schools are
in need of such men at their head
as Mr.. George F. T. Cook, for
| mhrly superintendent of colored
schools, or Prof. H. NJ. Brown.
Both men have great executive
ability and educational qualihca-
tiOns.

TEMPERANCE JIM CROW
ANNEX?

AN y Ia
The advocates Of prohibition or
otherwise temperance or prOhlbi-
ton agitators have appealed to the
colored people or those who believe
in temperance, to annex themselves
as a Jim Crow" auxiliary to their
organization.
Now, Just think OF it! The Bee
begs leave to ask a few questions
and to give a little timely advice
to the so-calIed colored Christian
Advocates of temperance:
Why should the colOred people
ally themselves with a white tenn
perance organization as a Jim
Crow" annex? Have these while
temperance agitators ever asked the
Christian colored people to go to
Congress and oppose the " Jim
Crow" cars that enter this city, or
the recent Jim Crow car bill that
was introduced in Congress by a
Democrat from Texas? These
white temperance agitators are a set
of hybocrites. They pretend to
believe in God and the Christian
teachings Of Christ, and at the very
same time they refuse to associate
with the Christian colored people,
but are willing TO have Jim
Crow" annex to their organization
to oppose the sale of liquor in the
District of Columbia. These hypO-
critical agirators Of temperance are
a menace to good morals. Many
of them will wink at immortality
pursue colored girls, allow colored
people to be Disseminated against
ostracised, and preventel from
earning an honest living without
raising their voices in behalf OF the
colored people; but they are will
inc that they be attached to the
tail end Of their organization tc
prevent the sale of liquor, which
Congress has legalized If this is
not hypocrisy personihed, what dc
you call it?
Many Of these temperance advo-
Gates are the biggest set OF I'M
moralists that can be found. They
will cry out against the sale o.
liouor, but will never hesitate t(
devour a good-looking female if al
opportunity presents itself.
If these temperance agitators do
not desire to drink whiskey, le
them 90 about their business, ant
let those alone who enjoy glass o
beer of a drink of wine or whis
KEY. Whose business is it If a ma
or a woman drinks? There is
great deal. more harm in doing wha
many of these temperance advc
Gates are doing than the bar-tende
is doing in selling a glass OF bee
and a drink of whiskey.
After the colored temperance oI
carnations have been used and al
nexed as a Jim Crow organic
ton. these white temperance adv(
Gates have no more use for then
The Bee has no faith in these Sc
called moralists who are cOnt1nt
ally asking for a Jim Crow al
mex to their institutions. 1t IS no
about time that the colored peop
have learned some sense. Iher
are in this city dozens OF churche
whose members, the pastors incluC
ed. that never refuse to accept d'
nations from men who sell whiske
or keep saloons. Where is Il
consistency?

Why red should have been selected
IS the national color becomes intelligi-
lie when we look at the cross of st.
ieorge. Sir Walter Scott, when he
wrote Of how their own sea hath
yhelmed those red cross powers" was
merely anticipating the phrase of to-
lay. But Oliver Cromwell, when for
he first time he put the English soldier
in red coat, probably did as much as
st. George to monopolize red as the ma
tional color. The aggressive color has,
however, many meanings and has lent
itself to many uses. In the days Of
the Romans when 1t flared on the head
If slave 1t stood for freedom; in the
days Of the French revolution 1t stood
for freedom backed by blows, while in
the streets Of the city to-day the red
cross stands for succor. So far back as
the reign Of Henry II. there was red
book Of the exchequer, record Of the
names Of all who held lands per bar

Of consequence in the service of the

ORLANDO RICH IN ORE.
Strike is Made 287 Feet From the
Portal Of Tunnel.


D. M. Adams, mining engineer, who
has been investigating recent strikes at
the Orlando mine, in Northern Idaho.
has submitted his report to the board
of directors. Mr.. Adams expresses
himself as we'll pleased with the ap.
pearance of the mines. He says in
part: w
"The lead was encountered 2S7 feet
from the portal Of the tunnel, and was
crosscut 10 feet on the DIP of the lead,
which varies from IL inches to two feet
in width. The tunnel at the intersec-
tion Of the lead is about four feet wide,
and in cross cutting the lead more than
a ton of high grade shipping ore was
tiken out. This ore will average 60
per cent antimony, and as antimony
ore is worth 81 per unit, the orc is
therefore worth 1920 per ton, on the
cars at Burke, Idaho. This is the main
lead we have been driving for for more
than IL months. The strike shows
that we have a we'll defined, strong and
persistent lead, carrying high per-
centage of first class shipping ore, prov
ed for more than 200 feet in depth and
for about 100 feet on the strike of the
same.
"The tunnel is no 302 feet under
cover"

future crop; that is, cutting to diam
eter limit, and not leaving the land to
revert back to the state for taxes, as
has been the policy Of many of the lum-
ber companies in the lake region. The
high prices for lumber will make it
possible to leave trees having diamet-
er of from twelve to twenty-iour inches
for the future crop. Then these devel-
oping tracts of forest land should be
we'll cared for. Fires should be kept
out, and laws should be vigorously en-
forced preventing the cutting down Of
the trees until they have grown to the
right size. All this means, of course,
a great need for skilled foresters, and
considerable expense, but it will be to
perpetuate the rich forests Of the Paci-
fic Northwest, and every dollar Of such
expenditure will return to the people
doubled and trebled."

PRESERVE THE FOREST.
Country Will Look to Northwest for
Supply Before Long.

"The Northwest section, comprising
Oregon, Washington, and Idaho, will
witness the fullest development of its
lumber industry within the next ten
years." said Professor E. o. Siecke,
head CT the newly established school OF
forestry at the Washington State col
lege, in a recent conversation. "Just
now, about one fourth of the mer-
chantable timber of the United States
IL in Washington and Oregon. The
Lake State REGION inclniing Michi-
gan, Wisconsin aud Minnesota, is lum-
bered and logged; 30 is the Southern
belt, including northern Alabama and
Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky, the
western parts of West Virginia and
Virginia; the eastern part Of Texas,
Arkansas, and the southern part of
Missouri. In very few years, more
than at present, the people of the
United States will be locking to the
Pacific Northwest for much Of their
lumber.
"What we must do is to learn to
handle our forests with regard to the
