of Education been fair? Has not
Admiral Baird done what no other
man would do? Have not the white
members of the Board of Education
done more in this case than the two
colored members? The Bee re
grets that Mrs. Terrell should fol-
low Mr.. John F. Cook in his in
consistencieS. Mrs. Terrell has an
individuality and has never been
known to follow in the wake of 9th
er people. 1t was kind on the part
of the white members of the Board
of Education to consent to allow
Craig to settle his differences by an
apology. Those who have advised
Craig to rebel have not the best
interest of the schools at heart
Elsewhere in The Bee is published
the letter of apology which John F.
Cook said was brutal and no decent
man would sign. Just what he
means by that The Bee is unable
at this time to state. The Bee has
been sustaining the Board of Edu-
cation beCauSe If believes that the
white members Of the Board are
more interested in the welfare of
the cOlored schools than Mr.. Cook
No person who has the welfare and
interest Of the slhools at heart
would dare to make the statement
that Mr.. Cook has made. Craig
stated that he could not prove his
charges, and he directed counsel to
ask permission to retract and apol-
ogize, which request was granted
by Admiral Baird. In view of this
statement of facts, will the readers
of The Bee and the public agree
with Mr.. Cook that the apology
prepared by counsel, at the request
of Craig, is brutal and humiliating?
Could not Craig be charged with
a more serious offense under the
Code? Which reads as follows:
The Bee understands such are
the charges in the possession of the
committee on the teachers. If this
be true, was not Craig getting off
easy?
DR.. Bruce Evens showed no feel
ing against Craig when he was ask
ed to be lenient on account of
Craig's family. He had no DISPOSE
ton to see him removed from the
schools. The Bee has no feeling in
the matter except for the best in
terest of the schools. 1t is quite
evident the Board Of Education has
a duty to perform regardless of the
opinion of anyone.
Something ought to be done, and
that at once.

THE LABOR QUESTION.

From the Christian Index.
The labor question has become a ser
iOus one, and one that should engross
the attention of our ablest minds. Skill
ed labor is in great demand and still
greater demand is increasing. The Ne
gro has a monopoly of labor in the
South. His services could hardly be
dispensed with by any legal process.
The unsatisfactory labor of the Negro
in many States has given coloring to
the labor problem The Negro will be
compelled for many years to come to
do the drudgery work of his country.
He should study the interest of his
employer, and devote his time to ad-
vancing his business. The Negro should
strive to give satisfaction. His negli-
gence IN business and his readiness to
leave his work on pleasure hunting is
detrimental to him. He should learn to
stick to his business, be prompt and
hold his job. The foreign labor will
supplant him and leave him with moth
ing to do if he does not learn to give
greater attention to bread-winning.

In making up its ticket the Washing

for President Hon. Joseph Benson For
aker of Ohio and for Vice-President
Hon, Timothy L. Woodruff of New
York. Like The Bee we would very
much like to see Mr.. Foraker in the
Presidential chair, but we are Just as
certain as the election is yet to be that
he cannot make it. We have said, and
sufficient. reason has not yet been brought
to bear for us to change, that if the next
President of these United States be a
Republican, that President will be the
present incumbent, Theodore Roosevelt.
Our friend, DR.. L. H. Harris, is engag-

New York, April l7.-Althougt
District Attorney Jerome returned te
his office today from visit to his
home III Lakeville, Conn, no move
ment yet has been made toward ar
application for Thaw's release. Daniel
O'Reilly, of Thaw's counsel called or
Mr.. Jerome this afternoon but said
the matter Of bail for the prisoner
was not mentioned.
Mr.. Jerome in speaking of the case
said his position was unchanged from
what it was Immediately after the
jury reported a disagreement, namely
that he would oppose, in every pos
sible way, the release of Thaw on
bail
When questioned about the signed
statement issued by Mrs. Nesbit-
Holman, mother Of Mrs. Harry K
Thaw, yesterday, Mr.. Jerome said
he had read it.
Il can't vouch for some of the
things said by Mrs. Holman, because

district attorney, "but can assure
you that, when she said she furnished
the district attorney no information
of use in connection with the trial
of Thaw, she spoke the truth. Mrs.
