COMEDIES THE CASE?

CONCEDES / He CASE!
The Bee would ike to know how
Attorney Cobb could come to the
conclusion that by Mrs. TerrelPs
conceding the good character OF
Mr.. CardOzO that she comedies that
there is no case. Cardozo's charac-
ter has not been attacked, neither
has his reputation. Mrs. Terrell
could have conceded that CardOzo
has a good character and reputa-
ton, no one questions that, and he
may be guilty of the charges against
him. Does Mr.. Cobb mean to say
by conceding that man has a good
character and reputation that he
may not be guilty of alleged Of
fense against him, not involving
moral character? Can't a person
be of good character and reputation
and then be guilty of an offenSe?
How does Mrs. Terrell concede the
case by admitting that Cardozo has
a good character. We all say that
Cardozo has an excellent character
and reputation, but the ofense is,
Is Cardozo guilty of acts of insub-
ordination? A man may be in
subordinate and have a good repu-
tation otherwise. A man may be
inSubordinate and his character will
not be affected. Mr.. Cobb is wrong
in his law. Mrs. Terrell was right
when she said that she would con-
cede that Cardozo has d good char
acter and yet have an opinion as
to his guilt. Suppose a person is
guilty of police regulation or some
thing not involving moral turpitude,
would any of the above affect his
reputation? The Bee would advise
Lawyer Cobb and his associate, Mr..
Richardson, to enter a plea OF
guilty and throw themselves upon
the mercy of the Board of Educa-
ton. Of course The Bee doesn't
know Just how much sympathy the
Board has for Mr.. Cardozo now
but The Bee does believe had Mr..
Cardozo pursued different course
I he would be supervisor today. Miss
Mary Noll has acted like a woman
and it is hoped that the Board OF
Education will give her another
chance. She has made no fight
against the school authorities, but
has conducted herself in a manner
that should commend her to the
Board of Education. The Bee still
maintains that it is not the desire
of the Board of Education to injure
anyone, but to put the public schools
upon a high moral and educational
basis. No one will say that Mr..
Cardozo has been attacked. Every
body will agree that he has the very
best character and reputation, OF
which any man ought to feel proud.

HOWARD UNIVERSITY.

The new president of Howard
University is doing all in his power
to build up model institution or
an institution that will compare
with Harvard or Yale. There first
must be a foundation. What The
Bee means by that is, there must
be good English department that
will prepare students for the col
lege and when they are ready for a
profession they will then have a
good English foundation. Many
students begin at the top and at
tempt to wade through Latin and
Greek and other dead languages
before they have obtained a good
English education. There are pro-
fessional men this day who can't
write three sentences correctly. The
medical department of Howard
University, the college and law de-
partments are doing good work.
An English department is mostly
needed at this time and it is hoped
that the President will see the nee
essity of having a good one.

HAVE NEGROES FLOCK BY
THEMSELVES

New York, March 4.-Ihe colored
parishioners of St Andrews EOiscoo,I
Church, Fifth avenue and I2zth stree,
are much exercised over an article EN-.
titled "The Colored People" written bv
Rev. DR.. George R. Van De Water
rector of this wealthy church which
appears in the February issue of tbs
St.Andrew's Chronicle. the parish month
ly. In that article DR.. Van De Wnsr
said:
Aside altogether from their right ;,
any place of public worship. it is hes,
that they should have their own church
es, their own ministers, and in time
maybe, their own bishops. It Is not bes,
that white and black people should he
in Sunday school or in church on
plan of equality or privilege.
I'VE are glad to hear that Rev Dr.
Bishop, rector of St Philips Church
in 18th street, is about to start mis.
sion church in this vicinity, and has pur-
chased site for it somewhere in I7ztb
street near Seventh avenue. In tim.
it will become St Philips. The sooner
the better. We would like to see a great
big church, with full equipment for Oar.
ish work, solely for the colored peonIs
IN this community and neighborhood
st Andrews will give its consent
to such a movement, not because il is
glad to get rid of the colored people
but because it is best for the colored
people and the best thing for the whole
church that they should worship togetb-
er."
The colored parishioners object esDe-
cilly to the plane of equality" refer
ence. They declare that they are not
treated with proper courtesy by the usb-
ers and that when they 90 to the church
they are made to take back seats.

DIR. Van De Water when see last night.
anu 1 stand by every word of It. I
repeat that the sooner the colored Eco
pie get out of St Andrews the better
1t will be for both whites and blacks.
If President Roosevelt wants to eat with
a colored man he can do so. I won't
and l am just as much entitled to my
opinion on the subject as he IS.
i do not want the colored people in
my church, neither do my parishioners,
for they have been a source of much
trouble. In the first place We have gen
tlemen ushers, wardens, and vestrymen,
and they, in manner, object to escort
ing colored people up and down the
aisles.
L am as strong in this question Of
separation as a Southerner. and I want
to be the rector of either a colored con-
gregation or a white congregation-not
a mixed one. That never was and never
