THAT BAIT.

The appointment of Ralph w.
Tyler as Auditor for the Navy
Department will deceive nobody
and will not affect the situation in
Ohio among the colored voters.
The President made the appoint
ment as an offset to his unjust and
unwarranted discharge of Compan-
les B, c and D of the Twenty-ffth
Infantry. But the only proper
atonement he can make for that
monstrous wrong is to acknowl-
edge his error and place the men
in the position they were before
he issued his order. The colored
voters of Ohio and the North will
not forgive a gross act of injustice
for a single federal appointment ii
the departments in Washington.
There are three things which
show the Presidents bad faith II
making the appointment. First
his change of mind from the in
tention to appoint Mr.. Tyler to
place in Ohio. Second, the time
he has selected to make the ap
pointment, viz: on the eve of the
opening of Senator Forake's cam
paign in Ohio. Third, the renun.
citation of his own gospel of purity

OUR SCHOOLS.

Tht time is fast approaching
when there will not be a colored
member on the Board of Educa-
ton. Will it stop there? No. The
Board of Education, it is hoped,
will not be injured by the courts
when efforts are being made to dis
cipline the schools. The colored
schools to a great extent need re-
organizing. The first step that the
school authorities should take when
Congress convenes is the abolition
of the supervising principals. Prin-
cipals of buildings have a better
knowledge of the teaching ability
of teacher under his direct super
vision than supervising principals,
who very seldom come in contact
with the teacher. Our schools are
in a terrible condition. The most
deplorable condition of affairs may
be found in buildings where the
teachers defy the school authorities
and then resort to the courts for
protection. Just how long these
unruly teachers shall be permitted
to ride rough shod" over the prin.
cipals of schools the Board of Edu-
/ cation must decide

NO NEGRO NEED APPLY.
In another column Of The Bee
will be read with much interest
special communication from James
town, Va, concerning the Negro
Exposition. DR.. Washington has
become disgusted and will not eX-
hibit. 1t will also be seen that the
Negro Building will be infested
with Southern crackers who will
parade within 80 feet of it. The
colored people will be insulted and
Inundated if they attend this Ex-
position. The Negro exhibit will
be a failure because the colored
people in this country do not in
tend to take any interest in he Ex-
position.
Mr.. Galloway has called in his
field agents and has also notified the
people not to send exhibits. 1t will
be over sixty days before the Ne
gro Building will be opened, and
certainly the colred people don't
want it said that they are in any
way connected with this failure.
1t is quite evident that Dr.Wash-
ingon is convinced that blunders
have been committed and he does
not propose to be party to any
scheme that will tend to humiliate
colored people at Jamestown. 1t
has also been reported to this Office
that Mr.. Galloway has been notified
that no colored people will be per-
mitted to ride on the white boats
from this city. Just why Mr.. Cal
loway has not made this public The
Bee is unable to state. Will Mr..
Galloway explain? Every space on
the boats from this city has been
taken up and those Negroes who
want to go to Jamestown must
walk. ?

TAXPAYERS LEAGUE.

The Bee has never heard of a
taxpayers league, citizens taxpay-
ers' committee or any other kind
of taxpayers organization. The
fight against the Armstrong Man
ual Training School is personal and
the white members of the Board of
Education will, The Bee hopes, put
a stop to it. Let the obstruction
be removed

WASHINGTON, D. c., SCHOOL
TROUBLES.

From the Colored American Magazine.
Lawsuits galore, examinations and re-
ordinations seem to be the ruling news
items from the colored schools of the
District of Columbia. We do not know
who is to blame in this grand mix-up,
and we are not attempting to decide
but of one thing we are quite certain,
and that is, Negroes should learn to
stop quarreling so much, and learn to
adjust their differences without so much
airing in public. This constant washing
of dirty linen in the limelight is hurtful
to race progress, and exhibits an inner
ent weakness that initiates powerfully
against the boasted capability of the
race for self-government.
We have constantly watched ana ex-
pected that We should develop such ar
esprit de corps in the teaching force oi
the District of Columbia, where the
Negro schools are many and proficient
that the whole management of this great
work would ultimately fall into the
hands of competent men and womer
of the race which system of schools
like those in the District of Columbia
should produce.

SAME SITUATIONS HERE.

From the Daily Herald.
The statements made by Civil Service
Commissioner McIlhenny as to the pa
thy oi the young men of the South in
regard to taking examinations for posi-
tions in the civil service is borne out by
the civil service examinations which
have been held il Vicksbrrg.
The last civil service examination held
in Vicksburg was conducted by George
S. Donald, of Atlanta, examiner for
this district. The examinations were OF
applications for positions as clerks in the
United States Railway Mail service. Oh
the applicants only four were white mer
while thirty-eight were negroes.
The unwillingness of Southern white
men to apply for these positions is based
on the fact that in taking the examina
tons they are put exactly on the sam,
basis as the Negro applicants and if sue
cessful in obtaining positions, in man,
instances they have to work alongsidt
of Negroes or under Negro bosses. The,
will not place themselves in such humil
iating situations.

WILL NOT EXHIBIT.
From Tuskegee Student.

From Tuskegee Student.
While this institution, for various
reasons which it cannot overcome, is
not to make an exhibit at the James
town Exposition, the officer of the Tus-
kegee Normal and Industrial Institute
are in hearty sympathy with the James
town Exposition and the Negro Depart
ment, and We earnestly advise all our
people throughout the country to make
a creditable exhibit at this exposition.
1t will be a great mistake if our people
do not put forth their very highest and
best efforts. in the case of the Tuske-
gee Institute We have lately gone to SC
much expense in making exhibits and II
connection with the celebration of our
Twenty-6fth Anniversary, that We art
compelled to cali halt for awhile II
making exhibits, but we have the great
est sympathy for the Negro Department
of the Jamestown Exposition, and wish
for it the greatest success. Mr.. Thoma!
J. Galloway and others, who are leading
actively in the work, deserve great cred
it for what they have already accom-
plished.

THE JAMESTOWN EXHIBITION,

Norfolk, Va, April IS, 1907.
Editor Bee
l was very glad to see that you hac
published my letter in the last week:
issue of The Bee concerning the James
town Exhibition, and in order to le
the public know the exact situation anC
great discrimination and humiliation the
Negro of the country will be put to
deem it my duty to write you again II
order that you may be thoroughly con-
vinced of the exact location of the Ne
gro and the other buildings, Inclosed
| send you an official plat of the grounds
with the names and location of eacf
building. You will notice on the plat
that the Negro Building is At least
three-quarters of a mile from the main
pier and other buildings. 1t is located
in a far-off corner near the camping and
drill grounds. where the Southern sol
diers will come, the nearest building be-
ing the "War Path" which was shown
at the Chicago Worlds Fair as the
midway" and at the St. Louis eX-
hibition as the Pike" All who know
anything of exhibitions fully understand
that these are the places where the
rough elements from all over the world
will attend, and, between the Southern
soldiers and the crowds that will at
tend the "War PATH" will keep OUT
ladies in constant contact with these
rough elements and especially to their
MANY insults. The military encampment
is not more than forty feet from the
ground set aside for the Negro, the at
letic grounds and main State buildings
and the Commercial Pier IS at least one
mile from the Negro Building. The
building will probably e finished from
eight to ten weeks after the exhibition
opens. and we have great sympathy for
DR.. Booker T. Washington and the
leading Negroes of the country, who
decline to make an exhibit under these
circumstances, and We hope that the
leading Negro newspapers Of the coun-
try will let our people throughout the
States know the exact condition.
Send for official charts of the grounds
and they will tell you the whole story

THE PROPHET % SPEAKS.
Mr.. Henry Watterson of the
Louisville Courier Journal would
have the country believe that he is
a prophet He predicts the nomi-
nation and election of Governor
Hughes of New York. It is one
thing to nominate and another thing
to elect. How is Mr.. Hughes to
be elected? It requires votes to
elect. The American people are no
fools. There may be a few fools,
but the sensible people are in the
majority. The President may trot
out Mr.. Taft in Ohio but when
Senators Foraker and Dick are
through with him, there will not be
enough left of him to tell a good
story. Mr.. Watterson may be a
modern prophet but in this case
The Bee IS Of the opinion that his
prophecies will not materialize. It
will be remembered that the late
President Chester A. Arthur tried
to nominate himself by federal pa
Tonage and failed. In the event
that Senator Foraker fails to secure
the Republican nomination, Vice
President Fairbanks will. The Of
fceholderS will not win in any State
where they have control of the fed
eral patronage.

THE OHIO CONTEST.

This nation owes debt of graft
tude to Senator Joseph Benson For
aker. The coming political contest
in Ohio will decide the question
whether justice and fairplay shall
face, or whether ingratitude and
treason shall predominant. A man
who has given the best years of
his life to uphold a republic and
sacrificed money and property is en-
titled to the plaudits and encourage
ment of the American people. Must
a man fall because he fights to up
hold a principal? Must man be
defeated by treachery because he
declares that innocent men must be
protected? Is this the policy of the
American people II to destroy the
righteous? The Bee cannot believe
that the cause for which Senator
Foraker is fighting is to be destroy
ed to satisfy the selfish and treach-
erous ambition of any one, no mat
ter how great and powerful he may
be. The Bee believes in the JUS
tice and fairness of the American
people and the principles which ac-
tuated Senator Foraker. There is
nothing selfish in his great fight to
uphold human liberty. He has a
just cause and it is believed that the
American people will rally around
his banner. Right is bound to pre-
vail.
