An Episode of the Gold Days of
California.

The Boatmen's Bank of st.
Louis, Mo-, was organized in 1947,
as the Boatmen's Saving Institu-
tion,to encourage thrift among the
boatmen and industrial classes.
There was no capital stock, the
deposits made by customers fur
nished the capital.
Among the original depositors
was Capt. Thomas Dennis, we'll
known steamboat man. He ee-
posted S100 in the Institution in
1S47.
When gold was discovered in
California in 40, the Captain got
the "gold fever" and left for the
west. Nothing was heard of him
for many years, until May 9TH,
1874, a tall Californian appeared
at the Bank, and produced the old
deposit book of Captain Thomas
Dennis. When told that the orig
inal deposit of S100 had grown in
26 years to S2565, he was amazed.
He drew the money in gold, re-
marking that there were were gold
mines in other places than Cali
fornia.
This incident stands as an il
lustration of that fidelity to its de-
positors' interests that has made
the Boatmen's Bank what it is to-
day.
The Bank now has a capital,
surplus and undivided profits of
over S3,7O0,000, which furnishes
absolute security to depositors,
having paid it's stockholders over
ten million dollars in dividends
during it's career.
Certificates of Deposit will be
issued for P. o. Money Orders,
Cash, or bank drafts to the order
of the bank, in sums Of $50 and
upwards, bearing interest at 4
per cent. for twelve months. A
safe and sure investment, not
subject to fluctuations of the
stock market. When the certifi-
cate natures, the entire amount
may be drawn in cash, or left at
compound interest.

''My Policies" F."

There is a great deal OF loose
talk by an President who re-
fuses to retire about "my policies"
and "my measures. He does not
take the trouble to tell what they
are. 1t does not matter.
A Democratic Congress to be
elected this fall will have to do
not with any of his new policies,
fantastic or other, but with long
list of policies, measures, wrongs
and scandals from which he will
never dissociate his name.
1t will investigate the Panama
corruption and usurpation.
1t wild show how the Sugar
Trust was immune for years
in its swindles and it's privileges.
1t will find out how much money
the plutocratic trusts spent to
elect certain President in 1904.
1t will inquire into the cost and
the beneficiaries of jingoism.
1t will reveal all the facts Of the
illegal absorption by the Steel
Trusts of the Tennessee Coal and
Iron Co.
1t will show up lawlessness and
waste in a dozen other instances.
The speeches now being made
from a private car leased by a
smart weekly might be significant
if the person behind the innumer-
able capital rs falling therefrom
were still President. AT it is, they
suggest only delusion and egot-
ism.
Noise and bluster are sometimes
confusing, especially in the dark

A BUSINESS HIGH SCHOOL

What IS there for our girls and
boys to do! This is the question
that is agitating the minds and
hearts of our mothers and fathers.
After a girl or boy comes out of
the Normal School there is moth
ing for her or him to do except to
push some white persons baby
carriage or to apply to some de-
partment store for a keeper of the
toilet. 1t is heartrending.
Now that many of our cOlOred
citizens throughout the country
are erecting stores for business,
there Will soon be a need for busi-
mess clerks, stenographers and
Itypewriters. To meet the demand
we should have a first-class Busi-
ness High School similar to the
white Business High School of this
city. We want this high school to
be divorced from the Armstrong
Manual Training School and
placed under a separate head.
Such man like Mr.. W. II. Davis
would be just the person for prin-
cipal. He is an up-to-date bust
ness man, an educator, and just
the man to place at the head of
our new Business High School.
President Cox, Can't. OYSTER.
Mrs. Terrell and Mr.. Horner:
Will you suggest to the Board
colored Business High School!
The boy and girl who graduates
from our Manual Training School
to-day has no place to 90. He or
she doesn't realize or get the merit
of diadem of his or her gradua-
ton. Some outsider steps in and
gets his place. Any person IS more
welcome to places in our schools
than our own graduates. The
time has come for the people to
act. Give us a cOlOred Business
High School.

THE MAN
FARTHEST DOWN" ."

AS has been generally an
nounced, DR.. Booker 7. Washing
ton, of the Tuskegee Institute, has
gone to Europe for the purpose
of studying social and labor con-
ditions. He will compare 1.-The
man farthest down" in Europe
with "the man farthest down" in
America.
In the interest of his studies,
DR.. Washington has visited, or
Will visit successively, London,
England; Edinburgh, Scotland; !;
Berlin, Germany; Prague, BO-
hemia; Vienna, Austria; Buda-
pest, Hungary; Belgrade, Servia :;
Sofia, Bulgaria; ConStantinopIe,
Turkey; Catania, Italy; Naples,
Italy; ROuen, France, and COpen-
hagen, Sweden.
DR.. Washington spoke in
Prague, Bohemia, the week of
Sept. 4, and will speak in the
Palace of Arts, Berlin, Sept. 30.
On his return to London, Oct. 6,
he is to be the special guest of
honor at a dinner to be given by
the National Liberal Club, and on
Friday evening, Oct. Z, the even
ing before he sails for America
he will speak in Liverpool be-
fore one of the important business
organizations.
Although DR.. Washington went
to Europe to secure a much-need-
ed vacation, the foregoing timer
ary shows that he has been and
will be unusually busy. A sum
mary of his trip will appear in a
series of articles in the Outlook
Magazine, of New York City
under the general title, ''The Man
| Farthest Down"

The Bee knows, attempted to de-
strOy or ruin the reputation of his
fellow-man. He is one man whom
we have never heard to abuse his
fellow-man, but, on the contrary,
he has asked a defense for those
who have abused him. He has
discarded his friends to appease
his enemies, only to be abused by
them.
The Bee has always found to its
advantage to support its friends
under all conditions and circum-
stances. Mr.. Vernon has endeav-
ored to please and satisfy his en-
emies as well as his friends. The
policy of The Bee has been, and
always shall be, to defend and
help its friends and destroy its
enemies.
Grant was strong because he
never betrayed or turned down a
friend. Your friends who have
elevated and defended you against
the attacks of your enemies are
the first to be given consideration.
Mr.. VernOn's enemies cannot harm
him; his friends will not; but MIR.
Vernon may harm himself by ca
tering to his enemies. Destroy
them.

THE RIGHTS OF

Ever since the right of suffrage
was taken from the. people of this
city they have had a burden. The
colOred people at one time could
dictate as to what should and
what should not be. For some rea-
son the appOintive power, which
has more or less been local, takes
delight in placing over the people
a class of individuals who have
no more interest in their welfare
than someone away from their
jurisdiction.
The moment you place one of
these interlopers in Office then he
begins TO exercise arbitrary au-
thority. If a local man is placed
in authority he, too, sOOns gets
the distemper. What are the rights
of the people? VIII someone

RECORDER JOHNSON.

The recent attack of the New
York Age on Recorder of Deeds
Henry Lincoln johnson was cow
ardly as well as vicious. Recorder
Johnson is an UnasSuming man
and a gentlemanly public official.
His participation in the recent B.
NJ. {. in Baltimore and the de-
feat of those who endeavOred to
defeat him showed that the Age
cannot look beyond petty things.
The editor of the Age, The Bee
is informed, presented himself at
the door of the B. NJ. c. as a dele
gate from a lodge that was un-
financial; that the editor at the
time didn't know the name of
his lodge. and Grandmaster Nor
ris and his followers informed
the editor of the Age that he was
not a delegate and could not be
recognized. Why, then, should
this cowardly and vicious attack
be made on Recorder johnson!
There Is something behind this
dark secret that will not work, and
the editor of the Age will see be
fore he IS many more suns and
moons old. The recorder is a gen
tleman, and throughout his life he
has 50 conducted himself, the Age
to the contrary Notwithstanding.

The Name of Washington

(From the Philadelphia Tribune)
What's in a name' sputtered Will
lam Shakespeare in a fit of disgust; to
which Henry w. LongfellOw an
swered, after thinking 1t over some
centuries after, somewhat IN this fash
ion:
Names" of great men all remind us
We may make our names" sub
lime,
And, departing, leave behind us
Footprints on the sands Of time.
This is POLITICALLY vague, as foot
prints on the sands of time have been
washed out so diligently as to leave
but one or two for each century of
the Christian era Perhaps that ac-
counts for the fact that the stars OF
earth, which are the rats of heaven,
delight in apprOpriating to themselves
the names not made to die The prac-
tiCe is common among COlOred people
We have known among them such
names as Arthur Wellington Smith,
Ulysses Simpson Grant Jones, Abra-
ham Lincoln Jackson, Cleopatra Hell
enc Johnson, Victoria Candace
Thompson and Phyllis Wheatley
Ricketts,.
The colored people are rich in the
name of Washington, the father of his
country, a slave owner until he ap-
preached near to the grave Some Of
these Washingtons are covered over
by some common name like William,
but they cannot deceive nor conceal
themselves. First of our Washing
tons is Booker Taliferro (pro-
nounced Tolliver); then Bishop Geo.
Washington Clinton, Congressman
George Washington White, eX-Con-
gresham George Washington Muir
ray, Collector of Internal Revenue of
New York Charles Washington An

Guardian; John Washington Thomp-
son, of Rochester, who built the
| Douglass monument, and last, but not
least, Washington Tecumseh Vernon,
Register of the Treasury, who signs
all of the Federal money
All these Washingtons serve Book

PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT
WINS.

The successful fight that was
waged in New York by Presi-

demonstrated the power of the
man. The Bee was confident that
President Roosevelt would win.
No matter what may be said of
him. it is evident that the world
is with HIM, and he can be Presi-
dent if he so desires. With the
entire press of the State against
him. with the united effort of the
bosses and their machine. he dem
onstrated the fact that he is the
master. The bosses went to the
Saratoga convention with the sole
purpose of putting Mr.. Roosevelt
out of business, and because he

steam railroads and electric rail
ways in Delaware to provide sep
arate accommodations for white
and negro passengers, and forbid
ding negro passengers from IN
truding in cars or parts of cars
intended for the accommodation

This is the kind of rot the Dem
Ocratic party is handing to cOlOred
Americans. This Is becoming the
sentiment in the North in Demo
cratic circles. The colored Ameri-
cans are losing their hold In the
body polite, and if they are not
very careful they will lose all.
The Democratic party is offering
no inducements to the cOlOred
man. What is the colored man
thinking about when he advocates
a division of his vote IN the face
of such Democratic doctrine!
The Bee maintains that the
Democratic party as whole Is a
menace to good government.
There are a few individual Dem
ocrats who believe in fair play for
ali Americans. Many of those
men belong to the old-schOol Dem
Ocracy. The new-scho0l DemOc-
racy IS like, to a great extent, the
new-schOOl colored Americans.
There is something radically
wrong with the new-schOOl Demo
Gratis, as there is with the new
school colored Americans. There
are a few young colOred men and
women who need training in
everything. This class of individ-
uals are as dangerous to society as
the new-schOOl Democrats are to
the American government.
There are a few Republicans
who are just as mean toward the

are, but a majority OF the Repub-
licans favor civil and political

while a majority of Democrats fa-

The Bee means no abuse to the
independent cOlOred man, but the
issue and the question are before
you. Which Will you choose?
Revs. COrrOtherS, WaldrOn, Neal
and other gentleman who are sup
porting the Independent, should
give. some strong reason. They

PRESS GLIB.

Here he is again. The Indian
apolis Face Scraper, alias the Ton
serial Artist of the West, would
have his readers to believe that
his correspondent will organize a
press club in this city. His cor
respondent, like himself, has been
pressing it for a number of years,
and everything that the great { p
correspondent of the Face Scraper
can lay his hands to IS a labOrer's S
job in the government department
in this city. This is a great Occu-
patton for a great CD writer and
would be president of a press club.
Thompson knows how to pass it.
The editor of The Bee cannot
be made sore. 1t is the other
fellow who gets sore. If talking
and publishing rot and sending it
out to the journal of the Face
Scraper, than there will be a press
club and pressing Thompson with
his Face Scraper manager will
be in charge, and no one else
