HOWARD'S HANDICAP.

DR.. Tunnel is a minister of the
Gospel, though no one would think
30, Judging him by the vindictive-
aesS he has displayed in haraSSing
and persuing Prof Roscoe {.
Bruce. DR.. Tunnel is a teacher,
though no one would suspect as
much, Judging from his assaults
upon a fellow-laborer in the educa-
tional field. DR.. Tunnel is hus-
band and a father, but what man
would suspect it, judging him by
his inconsiderate, unreasonable and
unsupported attacks upon another
man who, too, is the breadwinner
for wife and children, who must
necessarily be the innocent victims
of the blow aimed.
Before a recent meeting of the
Board of Education, DR.. Tunnel,
as a member of that body, pre-
sented charges against Prof. Roscoe
6. Bruce that contained not one
sCintilla of evidence nor the least
SemblanCe to reason, consistency or
honesty. And upon these alleged
charges, and without the accused
being asked to be present and given
the American right to defend him
self, DR.. Tunnel was so unfair, as
to demand his dismissal there and
then. Not content with the rebuff
the majority of the board admins
tered to him by voting to submit the
matter to the proper official (the su-
perintendent( for fair, honest in
vestigation, DR.. Tunnel, whom we,
heretofore, suspected had a few,
isolated grains of fairness IN his
makeup, went before the colOred
ministers of this city and attempted
to lug in their meeting a matter
which concerned the Board of Edu-
cation. and which he himself had
voted to submit to the school SUI
perintendent for investigation and
adjudication, publicly declaring at
the time that he would abide by
the superintendent's decision. But
the colored ministers, possessing
more of the milk of human kind
ness, more Christian tolerance, re-
corded a negative vote against him
of sixteen to three. In view of DIR.
Tunnels unreasonable course he
has not only outlived his usefulness
as a member Of the Board OF kdu-
cation, but it is a serious question
as to whether he has not impaired
his usefulness as a member OF
Howard UniverSity's faculty. Here
tofore the relations between the
Washington public schools and
Howard University have been ami
cable and helpful. made SO largely
by Prof. Bruce's hearty Co-opera-
ton. but DR.. Tunnel, by his dis
organizing methods, his arbitrary
demands. and unfounded attacks
,won the schools, has contributed to
iniure the university Certain 1t IS
he has not helped to the respect OF
himself as a minister. Were all
ministers Of the Gospel of the same
stripe as DR.. Tunnel, and thank
God they are not, the anti-church
propaganda would increase in pop
ularity and strength. In retaining
DIR. Tunnel on her faculty is not

President Thirkield's introduc-
ton of Prof. Roscoe c. Bruce at
Howard University Tuesday last, in
which he referred to the splendid
record Of Prof. Bruce as assistant
superintendent of public schools,
was one of those two-fold compli-
It was a compliment, and
a Just tribute to Prof. Bruce. and a
rebuke to DR.. Tunnel, of the How

Board of Education. has been criti-

his dismissal. President ~Thirkield

When depression in business
comes the colored race feels it first,
last and more keenly for the rea-
son that the majority of the race
are manual laborers. The colored
laborers are the first to feel the
blighting effects of panic, and
the last to recover. And they can
lily afford it, considering the wages
they receive.
