No Jim Crow.

(From the Dayton, Ohio, Observer
The Washington Bee should be
proud of her people, and we congratu-
late Editor Chase on his great race
pride and spirit in telling the world
the race has large Negro theater,
the Howard. It IS pleasing to note
from The Bee that such high-class
actors and shows as S. II. Dudley,
Ada Overton Walker and the Smart
Set give tone and color to the theater
by playing there. Success to Howard
Theater, and we hope the 100000 Ne
grOes in Washington will patronize the
playhouse, where they won't be Jim
CrOwed"

(From the Durham, n. c., Reformer)
Mr.. w. Sidney Pittman, architect
and builder, of Washington, D. c.,

Church, IS in the city looking after
the work which is now being pushed
rapidly to completion. From here Mr..

close a contract for the erection of
the new $4,000 library at the Col
Ored State Normal School there.

cal patronage which he receives in
the city of Washington, he does an
extensive business throughout the
country.

Irand Army of the Republic to-

Grand Army of the Republic to-
day.
Whatever may have been the
motives of the gray, who left their
homes, their children and their
wives to fight for a cause which
they thought was just, The Bee
has found many and knows many
who are willing to shake the hands
of the once enslaved, and will do
and have done for him what many
of our sO-called patriotic members
of the Grand Army of the Re
public have not and will not do.
The late President Mckinley ex-
tended the olive branch of peace,
eX-President Roosevelt did like
wise, and President Taft has sur
rendered all to the gray, even to
the detriment of his faithful allies
to pacify the enmity tnat seems to
remain in the hearts of the South
against the North. With all this
the South is restless and ungOv-
ernable, and will continue to be
so, no matter what may be done
for the great lost cause"
There are a few noble men
among the gray, and The Bee
hopes that the day will soon come
when all nations will recognize
equality of citizenship.

WHAT WE COULD AFFORD.

The cOlOred voters could afford
to support the Democratic party
if there were such men at its
head like ex-GOv. Glenn, of North
Carolina; Henry l.. West, of the
District of Columbia; ex-Auditor
James Petty, Mr.. w. Y. Cox and
Capt. James F. Oyster. The only
time that the cOlored man can be
an Independent in politics is when
conditions change as above. At the
time the late President Mckinley
appointed Mr.. West as one of the
Commissioners of the District of
Columbia the entire cOlOred press,
with the exception of The Bee, de
nounced the appointment and
charged Mr.. West as being a "Ne-
gro hater." The Bee maintained
then, as it has all along, that a
better friend to cOlOred Americans
could not be found. What was
finally the result? The entire time
that Mr.. West was Commissioner
of the District of Columbia all cit
izens, irrespective of color or con-
ditiOn, received the same consider
alton and respect. The credit of
the appointment of SO many color
ed men on the police force is due
to Mr.. West.
The Bee IS correctly informed
that no cOlored man has been ap-
pointed upon the police force since
Mr.. West resigned, and very little
is expected from his successor SC
far as the colOred people are con
cerned. The Bee doesn't expect
any consideration from the En-
gineer Commissioner, but it does
from Mr.. Rudolph as soon as al
opportunity presents itself.
Colored men as policemen have
made good officers, especially thOs,
who were appointed through Mr.
West; and until there is a mar
at the head like Mr.. West it is no
likely that colored men will be ap
pointed on the police force.

The Face Scraper.

The Washington Bee, sore because
it IS not to be considered in conuec-
ton with the proposed Washington
Press Club, which IS being fOstered
by Mr. r. w. Thompson, throws out
the insinuation that Mr.. Thompson is
an editor without paper If that
be true, the only difference we can
see is that The Washington Bee IS
a paper without an editor. Let the
Washington Press Club go on, and let
the 'bonehead' who essays to publish
The Bee go and gnaw a file. This IS
too busy an age to stop and explain
things to the kickers.

THE BLUE AND THE GRAY.

The cOlored Americans are just
as willing and ready to forgive
and forget those who kept them in
bondage as the blue and the gray
are to forgive and forget the late
conflict. There are some hundred
men among the gray who are bet
ter to colOred Americans than
some of the pretended blue. At
the recent meeting of the Grand
Army of the Republic that met in
Atlantic City last week, there was
one of the principal speakers who
declared that he did not join the
army to free the ''niggers." A
similar sentiment prevails among
many of the members of the

WHAT IS THE USE?

This Is what the washer-wOman
tells her daughter after she has
struggled for years to educate her
In our public schools. What is
the use, daughter, of graduating
from our normal schools. because
the interlOpers and the favorites
are appointed and you are ig-
nOred." The child IS now inocu-
lated with the belief that it is
useless to 90 to school, because it
sees nothing in sight. Why is
there so much falling off! Why
IS the attendance so smalll The
conditions stated above are the
causes of the falling off in our col
Ored schools, and conditions will
never be any better until there is
a change in the management of
the cOlOred schools. The colored
schools have been threatened to
be closed if the school rooms fail
to contain a certain stipulated
number of pupils. The Engineer
Commissioner, Mr.. Judson, would
no doubt be pleased to see less
teachers in our cOlOred schools.
1t Is his interference that has
caused the cOlOred assistant super
intendent to tell the cOlOred teach
ers to 90 out and gather in those
who are amenable to our school
laws. II a new head of the col
Ored schools we're appointed, The
Bee IS confident that our teachers
would not be the victims of such
orders. Are the teachers in the
white schools given such orders
BY no means does Mr.. Stuart in
flict such hardship upon his teach
ers. What do we find next a!
More baby orders to attend meet
ings before a teacher has time to
90 home and get his dinner. He
must be subjected to a long har-
angue on the beauties of nature or
on elephants tusks. just think
of it! The poor teacher does not
utter a complaint. He must not
say that he is tired. He must 90
away during the hot summer
months and throw away his
money on some imaginary studies.
These are some of the complaints
that come to The Bee. The Kinner
case is only an incident of the
wrongs inflicted upon the teacher.
1t IS impossible for the Board of
Education to know these things.
They are not brought to its at
tentiOn by colored school officials.
The president of the Board of Ed
ucation knows nothing about those
complaints until they are brought
to him. 1t is said, in the Kinner
case, that Mr.. CardOza is mar
ried man and that Miss Kinner car
better afford to lose thirty dollars
than he. If this kind of rot Is
philosophy, we suppose IL
teacher marked excellent and an
other marked very good, as in thC
. Kinner and Carodza case, becaus'
excellent has no children and /!
entitled to a prpmOtiOn, the yer,
good teacher, who has a family
should be promoted to the place t.
which the excellent teacher Is en-
titled. 1t is now a question Will
the Board what man can be fOunC
to appoint IN Mr.. Bruce's place
and what shall be given Bruce
The Bee suggested several name
last week, any one of whom vii
be satisfactory to the people, anC
we are certain would add to tn,
colored school system. The col
ored schools will be in a Turmoil
as long as Bruce Is superintend
ent. He is a disappointment, anC
his usefulness in the schools is a
an end.

DITCH ELECTION
TO BE CONTESTED

Las Cruces y. NJ. Dec The cleo
ton for commissioners and mayordomo
of the Dona Ana ditch was an exciting
one there being two tickets in the
field both tickets composed of proml-
nent landowners and farmers on that
ditch E B. Hoagland, DR.. /. c. Oden
and w a. Sutherland were elected as
commissioners and John Barncastle as
mayordomo. The other ticket, consist
ing of Tony Barncastle, ]. w Taylor
and John Stewart, was defeated, &C
cording TO the count of the votes, but
they have decided to contest the cleo
ton on the ground that some of the
proxies which were voted were illegal,
and that some votes were cast by per
sons who had no right to vote
The contest in the election hinged
upon the fact as to whether or not the
Dona Ana ditch would take in as
part of its main ditch the ditch which
was built and is being used by the
residents at the American bend, the
winning ticket being in favor of this
move and the losing ticket against it.
The matter will be brought before the
courts in a short tiHe to decide the
legality Of the election
