PRESIDENT HARRISON.
At this writing no one can fore
tell what will be the edict of the
convention now in session at Min
neapolis. History repeats itselt.
The same sort of combinations led
by disappointed and jealous men,
disappointed because the President
has not been able or seen fit to ac
commodate the whims and propo
eitions of every so called leader.
Jealous men, jealous of the success
that has attended the careful,
painstaking administration of Gen
eral Harrison, and consequently
angered that it is not said "I made
the administration.'7
The same environments that sur
round the President to-day, marked
the martyrd Lincoln in the conven
tion to choose his successor, the
same as to General Grant in hit?
second and the third. The same
cla88 of politicians that ripped Lin
coin and Grant up the back are at
the same sort of work to-day with
General Harrison. In the case oJ
Lincoln and Graut, all the leaders
were white men, in the matter of
General Harrison out of eight mil
lion colored people one of tbese has
been conspicious by vituperation,
uncharitable conduct, in his oppo
sition to the reno nination of the
President, and strange as it may
at first appear, paradoxical as it
shall seem this man has not only
not been able to exercise the least
paiticle of influence against the
President, bur, on the other hand
made for the President frieuds that
he knew not of. In short, i has
been demonstrated that men who
change their ideas with the weather
have no followers.
We know the fate of the men
who attempted to assassinate Lin
coln's administration and policy.
We also quite well and distinctly
know what became of the men who
villified Grant.
The colored men who stood firm
and unyielding for Harrison at
Minneapolis, will receive the eu-
iffli'lgiP-Qf having proved faithful
leave the city. iFtljey were found there
after that time they , would be at their
p?ril.
Every one knows :the brutal instinct
of the average MerAThis white man ould
not brsltate to assassinate a woman, so
it is probable that these worthy people
winVe corappllfd to remain exiles tor no
other reason than the exercise of their
rights of free speech. This is a very
striking example of the superiority of
the white race, Conservator.
Dear Iola: you have our deep
est pympathy in the lost of your
'Free Speech. " We see by the
pwpers you are in Phila. Pa. "Have
you an idea of 'speaking free"
then?

THE AFRO-AMERICAN AND
THE FAIR,
OWN ENEMY
It is always that man to be watched
and expected to do some one an injustice
who can find fault with J-ome on else,
and while it is a fact that the majority of
lie Anglo-Saxon mc.' are against us, we
must also acknowledge that we are
against one another. Nearly every day,
tight here in our own city, our people
can be heard to rind fault or pick Haws
in the actions of some of th ir uoiuhhors.
and if the fault-finder was one of purity
himself it would not look so hard, but
we nave oniy got to observe closely his
actions and we can find him to be worse
ihan the one ho accuses. Wis. Afro
American. Too true brother it is the same
case the w rld over.
THE FREEMAN SUSPENDS.
After a desperate and heroic struggle
for three years to establish The Freeman
and to "arrive at the biidge of success"
n due time, Edward E. Cooper, its found
er and publisher, found it impossible to
-tern the tide further, and Saturday, May
21, succumbed to the inevetaMe and sus
pended its publication. World.
We are sorry that the greulesi
Negro Journal (?) in the world has
suspended. Can some one tell
us which is the greatest now?
Djn't all speak at once.
The editor of this paper is in
Minneapolis, Minn., attending the
National Convention. When the
Bee makes its next appearance w
hope to give our readers many In
teresting facts connected with the
trip.

firmness of mind which enables
us to Rucoumer danger with cool

Mr. Johnson of Indiana. From
the message lie sent to Congress
when that measure was pending,
I should say he is, anil every Re
publican is in favor of every con
stitutional measure which will
guarantee to the colored men of
the South the right to go to the polls
without let or hindrance and east
their votes in favor of the candi
date of their choice and have their
votes fairly canvassed and counted.
Mr. Richardson. Is the gentle"
man authorized to speak for the
President of the United States on
the Force bill?
Mr. Buchanan, of New Jersev.
I rise to a question of order.
Mr. -Meredith. Let us know what
the President of the United States
thinks of it know?.
M . Johnson of Indiana. I hope
I will not be interrupted.
Mr. Docker.y. I trust the gen
tlemau may be allowed to state
that the President is in favor of
the force bill,
Mr. Richardson. Is the gentleman
authorized to speak for the Presi.
dent?
Mr. Jmnsm tf Indiana. I
state here and now that the Presi
dent of the United States, by his
messages to Congress, by all of
his public declarat ons and act?,
both while occupying he White
House and while 'raveling through
the country, and particularly in
the West during hid 'our there a
year ag), always avowed himsel
(and I believe in tho sincerity !'
ins avowui; as in comj lee sympa
thy wi;h thepiopoeitioti that then,
ought to be a national provision
vith reference to elections for
Representatives in ihe SoutherL
S'.aieH, and in all ;he other S:ates
of :he Union not int Tiering with
local e.'eutious, or other local af
fairs, to ihe end that in elections
for Congress, for national officers,
'here sh.-uld he a free b .Hot a-d
a fair count. And no m-iu who
loves Lberty, no man who is will
mg to see eve y man in this coun
try the political equal of every
other man, should object to the
adoption oi to honest and patriotic
a measure.
I say it illy becomes any mem
ber of the dem cratic party tha
had for endless years held the col
ored mn in abj ct slavery in or-
gentleman from Indiana falsifying
facts. I remarked that the col
ored people had been treated well
at the South, and that after they
were free the republican par'y, in
control of this Gov niment, had
never given them a dollar, had
never given them a syllable of
advice except to plant enmity be
tweed them and the people of the
South, their beat friends
I statid further that the repuhs
Mean pary had taken 68,000,000
from the Southern people in a
c )tton tax, and that when I made
a motion here, as did my colleague
Mr. Aliei to restore the money
to the educational fund of the
several Southern States the propo
Bition was promptly t-ml decidedly
rej cted by a repubrcan House
although in the next breath the
republican par y gave back to the
States tho direct tux which uobody
had a rght to claim.
But, Mr. Ch irman, I do not
regrut that the gentleman fom
Indiana has placed the republican
i arty of this c ;untry in the posi
tion of squarely endorsing all the
acts ot the reconstruction period,
and of the corrupt carpotbug rule.
But 1 a y amtiz d if the republi
