REV. WALLACE NOT REMOVED.
Editor Bee
Ny attention has been called to an
lrticle in the last issue of your paper in
which YOU say: There were a few dis
appointments at the closing session OF
The A. NJ. F. Zion Conference last Mon
lay. Rev. P. A. Wallace was sent out
Of the city, when he thought that he
would be returned. There was great
opposition to Rev Wallace by Mrs. Dav-
is and others. Rev. Wallace got the en-
nifty of this lady and her friends when
he opposed the Dunbar Literary AssOCia-
tion and the Emancipation Day exercises.
Mrs. Davis had built up a strong assO-
citation in the church, but Rev Wallace
forced her out This is one of the Caus-
es of Rev. Wallace's failure to return
Your informant was either woefully
ignorant or meanly vicious and l suspect
he was both. The truth is DR.. P. A.
Wallace, our pastor for four years, had
4 unanimous endorsement from our
church to return; but he was released at
his own request TO accept the Avery
Church at Allegheny, Pa.
Mrs. Davis literary society consists
Of herself and two other members OF
her own family. None of them are ac-
cused of being literary in any sense
TIE trustees refused them the use OF
the church because they had no follow
ing and the meetings were improbable
Mrs. Davis comes OF a family we'll known
in South Washington and has no int1u-
ence whatever in church circles After
she was refused the church no one but
herself has thought of the incident since

DR.CHANCELLOR AND THE
COLORED TEACHERS.

COLORED TEACHERS.
The Bee congratulates Superin-
tendent Chancellor on his excellent
address before the Colored Educa-
tiOnal Club this week. 1t was an
address that was highly appreciated
by those who had the opportunity
to listen to him. In that address
DR.. Chancellor proved that he was
a friend and not an enemy to the
COlored teachers. 1t was a mastery
effort of a man who has been
charged with being inimical to the
colored schools and the colOred
teachers. 1t gave the lie to his en-
emies, that he had no respect for
the colored people and their teach
ers.
DR.. Chancellor is an educator and
q fearless advocate of high moral
and educational principles. He in
vites criticism of his public acts and
utterances. He is the master of
the English language and of great
educational principles. He is one
man who has dared to reform the
public school system of the District
OF Columbia, which was greatly
needed, and which The Bee has adj
vocated for years. No other man
but DR.. Chancellor would have dar-
ed to attempt to satisfy the de-
mands OF the patrons of the public
schools. The people have for many
years demanded, petitioned, and ap-
pealed to many who have beer III
control of our public schools to
remedy the many complaints that
have been made against our Nor
NAL School. 1t did not require very
much time for DR.. Chancellor to
see that a change was necessary to
be made in our Normal School.
Some people may say that the prin-
cipal Of the Normal School should
remain, and equally as many have
said that her place should be filled
by another. The superintendent
has no personal prejudices against
the principal of the Normal School
or any other teacher in the public
schools. While many may have per
sonal grievances against the princi-
pal, none of these grievances in
fluenced the superintendent at all.
There are three persons whose
names will no doubt be considered
by the superintendent, to wit: Miss
es Gibbs, Shadd and Merritt. These
ladies are qualified and would make
excellent Normal School teachers.
Miss Gibbs IS a quiet and unassum-
ing teacher. Miss Shadd has. an
excellent record, and would no
doubt fill the bill Miss Merritt
has not only the educational ability,
but she has great executive ability
and commanding appearance. The
removal of Miss Campbell should
be reconsidered by the Board OF
Education. Miss Campbell's rec
ord is above reproach, which will be
testified to by the best educators in
The Washington bee., 1907-06-08

SOME COLORED EDITORS.
There are some colOred editors in
this country who remind The Bee
Of disgruntled women. There are
some women in this land who can
not argue question, but will fuss
It through.
The Bee has in mind ,at this time,
the editor OF the CharleStown (W.
Va Advocate, whose article The
Bee reproduces in full The Bee
saw fit to stamp its disapproval OF
the appointment Of Secretary Iaft
by Mr.. Washington as one OF the
trustees of a recent fund entrusted
to the care of Mr.. Washington for
the benefit of Southern colOred
youth. The editor of the Advocate
wants to know what has the editor
of The Bee to do with whom Mr..
Washington appoints. The editor
OF theAdvoCate hasn't sense enough
to know that all public questions
are the property of editors or any
one else who cares to discuss them.
The Bee has right to discuss the
fitness Of public men,no matter who
they may be. This is a public fund +;
Mr.. TAFT IS a public man, as well
as Mr.. Washington. Mr.. Taft has
shown his animus against the col
ored American as a political satel-
lite of the resident. He obeys ev-
cry command of the President, right
or wrong, and to his own detri-
ment, as was shown in the discharge
of the Colored soldiers in disgrace
by the resident.
A man who has no thought of his
own is unfit to be at the head Of
anything, Mr.. Taft not excepted.
Now, if the editor of the Advo-
cate is one of the satellites of the
Administration, The Bee is not sur
prised at all. Any man who has
acted as Mr.. TAFT has is not the
man TO disburse funds to Colored
people.
Mr.. Washington knows, as well
as the editor of The Bee, that the
President and his secretary of war
are inimical to the colored Amer
leans. Mr.. Washington knows that
Secretary OF War Taft is objec-
tionable to the colored Americans.
However, Mr.. Washington will dis
cover before long that the appoint
ment of Mr.. Taft IS not appreciat-
ed by the colored Americans, no
matter if he has been made the
custodian Of the funds to be diStrib-
uted for educational purposes
among the Southern colored people.
The Bee has a right to criticise
the acts Of MIR. Washington as well
as anyone else, when he de- ONE
thing to warrant criticism The
Bee has said heretofore that it viii
support Mr.. Washington when he
is right and condemn him when lie
is wrong. The Bee wears no man 5
collar, small or great, rich or poor.

derstood that It commends the ed
ucational work at Tuskegee, but 1t
will not be a party in defending

ON APPOINTING TRUSTEES.
From the Charlestown, w. V, Advocate.
A few leaders" just as we have ex-
.pected, have come forwardewith a fresh
crop of criticism for DR.. Booker T..
Washington, this time because he used
his own judgment in selecting a board
of trustees for the Jeanes Fund for Ru-
dimentary Education OF Negroes. Es-
pecial umbrage is taken at the announce
ment Of Secretary of War William H.
Taft in the membership Of the board.
The Washington Bee delivers itself in
this fashion:
The appointment Of Secretary of War
Taft by Prof. Booker T. Washington as
one of the trustees of the recent fund
placed in Mr.. Washington's hands for
distribution among the Colored people
South for educational purposes was a
great mistake. Mr.. Taft Is no friend Of
the colored people and The Bee feels
confident that his appointment IS an in
suit The Bee has the highest respect
for Mr., Washington but his efforts TO
ngratiate Taft :; the good wishes Of
the colored A. ans will not succeed" ."
Why "a gre; mistake? Why ICES
The Bee work il, confidence up 70 that
point where 1t grasps the appointment
Mr. Taft as an insult? What has
The Bee got TO DO with this affair at any
rate? DR.. Washington has his friends
lust as the editor of The Bee has his,
and he must allowed his own wisdom in
these circumstances. Mr.. Washington

NEW SUPERINTENDENT.

NEW SUPERINTENDENT.
The appointment OF Mr.. Roscoe
Conkling Bruce as assistant super
intendent of schools may have been
d surprise to those who were inter
ested in other candidates, but not
to The Bee. Mr.. Bruce is a young
man, a production of this city. His
age is no bar to the proper eXecu-
ton of the duties of the new office
to which he has been appointed by
the superintendent of schools, and
confirmed by the Board of Educa-
ton. 1t is hoped that the teachers
will give their new superintendent
their undivided support.
Mr.. Bruce is not a domineering
official, and neither will the teach
ers find him uncOuth. He is pol
ished and dignihed gentleman, who
is approachable at all times. The
Bee extends to the new official its
