UTILITY 0 THE BALLOT.
In our issue of July ISth, under
the ht-ad of citizenship, we sug
gested the utility of the ballot in
its general methods.
Its utilizing' influence is expres
sive of the local and national bet
terme t of every community.
Ic is like the gospel, the law and
the grave, it works every voter
equal.
It is as powerful in the hands
of the drunkard as in the preacher
in the pulpit, and the President in
the White ITouse.
It is the weapon of power and
defence, the instrumentality
through which all political contro
versies are adjusted, and appeals
from an unrighteous branch of ju
diciary decisions, to the poles are
comprehensively and equitably
settled.
It changes not the politicel status
with those of the religious, civil
and social, but still retains for the
voter that indestructable force that
regulates all the rest.
A man can neither be pastor,
president, nor governor, without
' the consent of the governed'
In every State of the American
Nation, his constitutional peroga
tives, are his indisputable personal
property, and no man can legally
prevent him from voting, nor go
beyond a mere persuasive rebuke to
compel him to vote. The practi
cal utility of the ballot.
Of all the materialized elements
of constitutional manhood, the po
litical status stands the power over
and the protective defense of all
.others.
It forces religious fanatics into
profounder and closer relation for
the brotherhood of man ; it refornio
.judiciaries for better basis to the
co-equality of citizens of the States
and the Nation, and it guards the
door of protection to social beau
ties and embellishment.
It sustains a relation between the
rich aud poor, that compells lead
ers to yield to the needs of their
followers to demaud of the leaders
a guaranteed protections of the
laws.
like you want harmony ? Away !
with such pretentions and hypoc-
ricy.
Suppose one organization, as it
is claimed, has more members than
the other ? Must this stop a con
solidation ? If this is what you
mean aud the purpose for which
fyou appointed jour committee,
count me out.
At the conclusion of Mrs. Ter
reFs speech, the applause was vo
ciferous and enthusiastic all over
the church. It was a masterh
effort and demonstrated the hon
esty and integrity in a grand
woman.
The election of Mrs. Terrell as
president of the Consolidated As
sociation recognizes one of the
most brilliant women in thia
country.
The Bee congratulates her and
the Association and admi s the out
come of the convention, is Mrs.
Terrell's triumph.
The women of the League and
Federation are to be congratulated.
accomplished in the schools of Wash
ington by the colored pupils of both
sexes; so great was it t.at he had
wondered at it. Then he looked at
the other side of the picture, and told
of those living in the slums of the city,
surrounded by disease, filth, and
other influences that tended to degrade
" It is the plan of those who have been
fortunate so far as the world's goods
and education are concerned," he de
clared, " to see to these people where
ever they are. Society is so inteiwo
ven in its relations that we cannot
afford to have this blot upon the Cap
ital's escutcheon." Commissioner
Ross called the attention of the Fede
ration to the Girl's Reform School,
and asKing them to compare its
method of curing evil with that of the
jail and the workhouse. They were
orthy of careful study. He conclu
ded with sentiments of welcome.
Mrs. Matthews said she was glad the
Commissioner so well understood the
spirit and purposes of the Federation,
and tin-t so many white people were
present, as it was not well known that
the colored people were doing so well
for themselves. Mrs. Matthews re
ferred to the convict lease system in
the South, and made a fervent appeal
for an expression of public sentiment
against what was debasing thousands
of the colored youth of that section.

RUNNING ON TIME.

e by Mrs Jerome Jeffrey, of Rocli

As illustrating the degree of effi"
ciency to which the present manage
ment of the B. & O. R. R.has brought
its motive power, equipment and esprit
de corps of the operating staff, we call
attention to the fact that during the
months of April, May and June the
passenger trains and fast freight trains
have almost invariably arrived at their
respective destinations on schedule
time. The very few exceptions to the
general rule were due to causes insep
arable from railway operation, and
against which no forethought can
wholly guard. It may be safely said
that during the period named no road
in America, comparable in magnitude
to the B. & O., can surpass its record
for punctuality in train movement"

AN ADDRESS BV COMMISSIONER ROSS.
Commissioner Ross was greeted with
an ovation. " I deem it a pleasure as
well as an honor," said he, " to re
present this municipality in extending
a welcome to such an organization.
I can conceive no purpose more worthy
to be carefully considered than that
for which your association is enlisted.
The most fortunate person is the child
born today. Six months hence I
should say the same thing, for this old
world is growing wiser and better, and
its advantages to the coming genera
tion is growing broader. And in the
plan of education and enlightment the
colored people enjoy their share today
as they never did before." The Com
missioner spoke well of the work being

herself overthe victory for the League.
Miss L. S. Chase did a great deal of,

Mrs. E. W. Harper was in her glory.

Mrs. Barnett was the politfcian

Mrs. Terrell knew her business and
gave them all to understand it.
Miss Merritt is a wire puller. The
League got the best of the deal.
