TAFT'S SPEECH.

That which the people" thought
would be a mountain was no more
than a small hill. The baby IS born,
and behold it is child of misfor-
tune. The great % speech re-
fecting the sentiments of Theodore
Roosevelt was delivered a few days
ago is Ohio. 1t was borrowed from
his master and reflected his senti-
ments.
The universal opinion is that the
slave was obeying his master. The
American people want man for
President who is able to express
his-own opinion and not the opin-
ion Of others.
Mr.. Taft believes in failing al
legged violators of the law and yet
the Administration can go out of
its way to use government offices
for political aggrandizement.
Mr.. Taft reminds The Bee Of an
overgrown schoolPoy delivering his
masters speech after he has COM
mitted it to memory. Those who
have heard the schoolboy that had
been designated to deliver a vale
dictory address and after a fiatter-
ing introduction by the teacher, he
starts off by saying MARY had a
little lamb" etc. This is the way
Mr.. Taft's speech is accepted by
the people.

PROFESSOR WASHINGTON
AND HIS OPPOSERS.


To know Prof. Booker T. Wash
ington is to like him. He has a
better heart than his enemies will
credit him with. He is doing more
today to elevate his people than
those who are crying upon the
housetops. He is not selfish. He
IS not ambitious. He has been de-
ceived by demagogues and traitors.
Representative and educated col
ored men, men of character and in
IN the race who stand ready to
follow his leadership.
The Bee is not willing to see his
greataVork and the man injured by
grafters and selfish demagogues.
We see men hanging on to his coat
tails who are of no benefit to him
and never will be. There are men
in the race who stady ready to
give him their aid-and influence.
While the colored Americans are
in need Of higher education, they
are more in need of the kind of
education that Tuskegee is giving.
Let us get together and demon
strate to the world that there is
unity among the race.
The Northern colored man is do
ing but little if anything to develop
his people. The colored Ameri-
cans South, notwithstanding the op-
preston and disfranchisement, are
far ahead Of the Northern coIored
men.
The Bee believes in the Southern
coIored man. The Bee admires him
for his industry.
The Bee is supporting DR..
Washington because he is doing
for his people what no other colored
man can do.
The Bee has opposed him when
it thought that he was wrong. But.
when a man utters such manly SEN
timents that have been uttered re-
Gently by Professor Washington he
is entitled TO the plaudits and in
dOrsement of his epople.

From the Atlanta (Ga.) Independent. -.
We have just finished reading Bro.
Lambkin's, of The Record, apology for
Grand Master Houstons mismanagement
Of the Odd Fellows affairs in this coun-
try. Bro. Lambkin's editorial not only
shows misinformation but half faith IN
bis man Houston. His article, which
bears the color of defense is nothing
less than weak apology for a ahgrant
collation. of every principle of theOrder.
Much adverse criticism IS appearing in
the press about the administration of
Grand Master w. l. Houston, Of the

THE CANDIDATE EDITOR.

HE CAN DIDAlE L EDITOR.
The candidate editor for the
bishopric of the Methodist denom-
nation, RevLambkin, should either
close his mouth or inform himself
Of the condition of the Odd Fellows
in this country.
If he makes as bad a bishop as he
does editor, ThesBee is of the opin-
ion that he had better hold on to
the financial department of his de-
nomination.
He misleads his readers by tell
ing them that all is quiet among
Odd Fellows South and elsewhere
The court records show: First,
two iniunctions and one suit against
the subcommittee OF management.
Second, Two suits against the
Houston outfit in Alabama, and
three arrests for contempt of court
in the State of Alabama.
Third, Howe meeting at Selma,
Alabama, and he and Professor
Kno xendorsed in a convention Of
six hundred delegates.
Fourth, a Houston meeting at
Birmingham, Alabama; two-thirds
of his attendance women and chill
dren.
Still the candidate editor would
have is readers to believe that all
is quiet in the Odd Fellows and
Houston has won.

OUR SCHOOLS

1t is believed that the Board of
Education viii do all in its power to
place the public school system upon
a basis that will command the re-

people in this city. What the board
should do IS to put a quietus on
a few Of the supervising principals
who are of the opinion that they
are running the schools.
The Bee makes this suggestion
to the board: Ascertain whether
there are any supervising princi-
pals running the schools, or their
wives?

 BROOM CORN cROP.-In yester- days issue mention of Australian mil let was made wherein the seed was likened to that of broom corn. The effect was to smoke out the broom corn itself and a sample of it was brought to this office yesterday by Frank P. Lee, agriculturist at the In- dian school. This broom corn seems to have about as laudable a record as the millet has. It was planted on the Indian school farm on April IS. and when the crop was fully matured it was cut. But the roots were left in the ground and a volunteer crop inn mediately sprang up from the roots. That crop is now rapidly maturing, and is making a very heavy yield. So far as anybody around The Republi- can office can judge, this second crop of broom cc.n is as good as anybody's broom con could ever be in any coun- try.
