In another column of this paper will be read with interest ihe true inwardness of the late Indianapolis e- nfirnce. It can be BPen that the motives of some of the participants weie corrupt and personal aggrandizement is the secret of the whole. vVe are of the opinion that Mr. J. Milton Turner, has done the.

Cherokee Freedmens bill everlasting harm. He ought to huve adopted other methods to have passed his bill through Congress. It is indeed base ingratitude on his part to at tempt to mislead an injured I people. What inducements have ueeu offered to the colored voters, by the democratic party? The conservative negroes, in the departments, under this administration are doing the negroes an injure and even Mr. Turner declared tr Mr.

Pharor, the spcretarvof the National democrat-c committee, that not one iu the late Indianapolis conference could tell why he was a democrat. Any man has a right to change his opinion otmen and measures, but in changing there ought to be some tangable grounds upon which to base such a change and it should be of such a nature that would benefit his fellow man. It will be seen that it was the intention of the movers to mislead te colored people from the begiu- ing.t If colored men want to become democrats and support that party, they are at liberty to do so, but, they ust not attempt, by fraud, to misrepresent the massess. The late ludianapoli8 conference turned out to be a bursted gas bag. a shadow on the wall; a puff of wiud before a storm and on the arrival (if the sturm the people were surprise to find that a lot of frogs had dtCftided ins'ead oi raiu.

rl he recorder of deeds was v.ery solicitous about Turners election, he knew that he could use him to an aa vantage, luner on tiie; o'her hand knew that the president would not hesitate to sign 1m mil if it had assed the House of representatives. H. J. Taylor, asserted that Trotter and Turner are new con-vertt-; that the president Selected the wrong men to serve him. Trotter showed hiB ingratitude to his lieutenants on their return from Indianapolis.

He denounced the conference as a disgrace, and even declared that it surpassed the late il lard hall, con ven. tion.f Trotter is right in this, because not a delegate who look part in the Willard Hall attempted to shoot any one, as Ogilive did. The question that must be Bettled, is, did the president request Trotter to call this conference Turner of course is good, ijello.w and personally we consider him a good man, but politically he is dead. He lost prestige in the republican and left it to join a party iu which, he is not known. He is nmtructed by republicans and damned by negro democrat 3Jhe 3epblicauti of the fifth Md.

district wi 1 meet in convention at aural on Thursday next for the purpose of nominating a candidate for Congress. Mr. Sydney E. iludd, a young progressive Republican is the choice of the people of the four Southern counties, and his popularity among both Democrats and Republicans guarantees his election in November. At the age of 21, he was elected to the legislature where he distinguished himself as a man of broad ideas and statesmanship.

He introduced a billjentiled "thefree inspection bill" the tendancy of which" was to give farmers the management of their own tobacco thereby saving $1,00 taxation on each hogs-head. He alBO advocated the passage of the bill to strike out the word white" from the statue book which alone has won for him man friends among the colored people as was showu by his triumphant election to a second term in the legislature. Mr. Mudd's candidacy will be a brilliant one, both democrats and republicans will rally to his support. He is a son of the late Jere D.

of Charles county and a nephew of Hon. Geo. D. Mudd the leading Republican of Southern Md. It is hoped that the people will give him their-, support as they will the national ticket on which Harrison and Morton and Protection will be the predominant feature on the 6th of November next.

CHARGES AGAINST PEOE. CARDOZA. In our issue of last week wre publish rd certain charges, preferred by Prof. H. M.

Browne, against Prof. E. L. Cardoza, principal of the High School, which in our opinion and in the interest of our High School should be investigated. It was also our intention to have published Prof.

CardozV reply, but when he (Prof. Cardoza) recalled and changed the reply he made to Supt. Cook and the copy he furnished us, which is entiiely different from the original reply, we are compelled in the interest of fair play and in justice to Prof. Brown decline to publish it. Again Prof.

Car-dczo makes criminal and peisoual charges against Prof. Browne, which are inconsistent to former written statements, sent to Supr. Cook and the faculty of Howard University, which will be utterly impossible for Prof. Oardozu to extricate himself. Below will be read a letter written by Prof Card za which will explain itself.

"HIGH SCHO Washington, D. May 18, '87. To the Trustees of Howard Uni versity, Gentlemen: I take gieat pleasure iu recommending Prof. Hugh M. Browne for the Chair of Physics in Howard University.

He has been very successful in teaching the subject in the High school, and has inspired the pupils with zeal and enthusiam for the study by his ability in explaining and simplifying the difficulties attendant thereon, aud iy a series of ingenious and successful experiments illustrating the principles ot Physics. Very respectfully, E. L. Cardoza, Prsnci pal." Now, then, if Prof. Brown is such a man as Prof.

Cardoza savs he 9, in his reply to, fcupt. Cok and Dr. written, July 18v '88, why should he desire to thrust such a characrtifron the Trustees of HowarAHJniveisity? In another commnni cation to Supt. Cook, aateu 4u.jys V4 jut seven days 'jPriortO the filing of his luey invariably come from rl I'HrtTi i V--7 7 among otber things. and making reference ouly to the success of Prof.

as a teach er in the High said: "Mr. Geo. T. Cook, Dear, Your letter of July 11, requesting from, ieras principal, a report of pseseut condition of the High behool and its standing as a progressive educational instil ution is leceived. Referring to the schools of the iiist six divi sions he said: They have more aud better apparatus and more fac lilies in teaching Physfis than we have though we n.ive made good progress during the last four years in teaching this subject, on account of obtaining more apparatus than we had at first, aud being "enabled to assign a teacher to this subject alone, because of the growth of the school during that period." No other teacher is mentioned in Prof.

Cardoza's report to Mr. Cook, but Prof. Brown, In a re port of the Evening Star concerning the late Industrial Exhibition the onlyattractiouB mentioned as the High school Exhibits, were those ot Prof. Brown's, ub follows: "An interesting part of the exhibit is that of the High School, showing apparatus used in laboratories. Some of the devices were made by the boys.

Among them is a minature to represent the How of water from a reservoir through the pipes of a city, and another showiug the principle by which ventilation is secured in mines. The pupils in the High school are studying telegraphy ouiBide of school hours and they have risrged up wires and placed instruments in different parts of the building." These were the exhibitr'of Prof. Btown, which will show that he is-misrepresented in the communication of Prof. he ma liciously mtradicts himself in his letter of May 18, July 18, '88. If Prof.

Brown is the mau Prof. Cardt zi says- he Ir. Brancs, who is a member of the High and Normal S. Com. will be in duTy bound to- remove him, but, if it is true that Prof.

Caidoza is the au'hor of the above letters of recommendation, which are inconsistent with his reply to Prof. Brown's charges and if Prof. Cardoza cannot prove hia implied charges of immorality Prof. Cardozo will have to be removed. In either one or the other will have to be removed.

Prof Browne has shown himself capable, so says Prof. Cardozo and so far as his moral character ib concerned, we know and so do the people of this community that he is a gentleman of intellectual and high moral standing iu this country. Prof Brown has sent a letter to the board of school trustees demanding an investigation of the charges made against him by Prof. Cardoza and if true he says, he is an unfit person for the position, he holds, in the schools of this District. We shall publish a letter from Prof.

Brown next week showing why he sent his charges to Supt. Cook and showing that his criticism is just. It will be seen that. Prof. Browne made no peisoual attack on Prof.

Card- but, merely criticised his methods of conducting our High School. Injus'icetp Prof. Brown we must say that he never sought the publication of his let ter, which appeared in the Bee of last week, nor did we know that he had filed charges agaiust Prof. Cardozo, until we were so informed by that jjentlemnn. DEATHLESS THREATS.

very day the Bee man hears such expressions as this: "You had better not put auything in that old paper about 'me." There is uo terror Cassius, in your threats; they pass me by as the idle winds which 1 respect not. Thus spake Brutu. Thus speaks the Bee. The Bee is incorrigible. It knows no such word as fear.

It fears nothing. Kings nor Principalities. It is for the right. It has attempted to expose wrong, error and indecency. It winks at no malpractice.

It is conscious that outspokeu policy is too rigid tor V33hington society. To live here one must learn how to conceal wrong and hate right. He must learn ho1 He must learn pany with the must learn ClfMV Ol uujBPHmSEE I takes noVinlrrTonduct. It is hereto defend the right and decry -the wrong. Let wrong doers beware.

"What is particular jriaitulous about these threads sihnnr thfiSfi ThrttA.m is -w persons of loose character, lhose who fear to have their actions known or their whereabouts revealed. To nest man or woman tears a newspaper. No hou-est persons make a threat because he is conscious that viie things are only said about violent persons. Some times a good person gets in bad company aud ha3 mean things said about him, but usually ouly the bad is spoken of the bad. The Bee has never made a statement that diid not contain the truth.

There is some truth in all it says. The whole truth usually follows by the very persons who attempt to disprove those reports. Contention with the Bee means bruises and scars. On all the great moral and economic questions before the people these two parties have been found at variance. The policies which have made our country what it is arad lifted it to its present high standing have been the outgrowth of republicanism.

Let the new voter think and no one need fear his conclusions. CUR NORMAL SCHOOL TEACHER. We understand that tne charges against Miss Lucy Moten were made on personal that superintendent Cook didn't agree with Mr W. A. Stewart, the author of the charges, but to the coutrary he complemented MiBS Moten for her excellency in teaching.

We know Miss Moten to be a lady of refinement and education, of whom the citizens of Washington are proud and any reflection on her honesty and integrity in her official position does not receive the approval of superintendent Cook or the board of school trustees. CHEROKEE Ereedmen or no freedmen Rep- reseutative Owen is right in op-j posing the uneroKee Jrreedmea bill, when there is a bargain be tween the democratic party and the parties who were interested in the Indiauapolis conference. Mr. Owen is, not opposed to the-ITreed- tvHixiie. U(JHHK hnl -it is opposed to the great scheme or bargain entered into and he will find thousands of supporters among the negroes to back him.

Turner of course wanted to get his bill passed, hence the Indianapolis conference. He didn't think at the time, that the republicans would catch on to his scheme before the passage of the bill. It is a cold day when a republican politician gets left. BLAINE RETURNED. HOW HE WAS GREETED.

NEW YORK IN A BLAZE. THE PRoCESSrON, COL. PERRY CARSON AND ANDREW GLEASON MEET THE DISTINGUISH- ED STATESMAN. l4HELLO PERRY. 3) (Special Correspondence.) New York, Aug.

13, '88. The name of Hon. James G. Blaine waB on every tongue in the State of Netf York last week. Thousands of people were here to greet oue of the most distinguished citizens of the age.

The recep tion committee accompanied by several thousand strangers left on steamers to meet Mr. Blaine and notwithstanding two' days disappointment the third day was A DAY OF JOY. it Mr. Blaine arrived, but the evening prior to his arrival one of the largest processions, in the political history of the conutry took place. Col.

Perry H. Carson and Andrew Gleason were the centre of attraction. Col. Car-sou was greeted and honored XT everywhere he went. He was escorted to Mr.

Blaines rsception rooms in the 5th avenue hotel by Mr. Wm. Walter Phelps. Mr. Blaine, on seeing Col.

Carson, extended an enthusiastic greeting, and remarked, "Hello Perry, I am glad to see you." The manner in which Col. Carson greeted bv Mr. Blaine caused everyonB present to look with amazement. Mr. Gleason was the first man to greet Mr.

Blaine on the steamer Sloan. Mr. Blaine said, when he was about to be introduced, tat he needed no introduction to Mr. l(ffirfte--mimYi lfotM.K Blaines' arrival Mr. Marcel I us West got lefr, and detirmined not to be outdone, he'and two other gentlemen hired a yacht and overtook the Steamer bloan, before ii had reached Staten Island.

THE PROCESSION on Tuesday night was the largest ever witnessed. Many a distinguished person occupied seats ou The grand stand among whom were Col. Fred Grant, Col. W. W.Dudley, Hon.

Wm. Walter Phelps, Col. P. II. Carson, Andrew Gleason and others.

Although the procession took place on the evening previous to Mr. Blaines arrival, as many more greeted him on Eriday evening before the balcony of the 5th ave. Hotel where he delivered an address. The very anpearence of Mr. Blaine in Kevv York electrified the city and no negro was more honored and respected than the tall black oak of the citv of magnificent distances, Col.

Carson. Both Ca'son aud Gleason won a host of friends. The following WELCOME ADDRESS was delivered to Mr. Blaine and Mr, Blaines' reply: Mr. Bartlett, president of the $Tew York Republican Club, delivered the address of welc ine, i Which he spoke nf the disappointment occasioned by the steamer's late arrival and referred briefly to the opening or the campaign, closing as follows: In this emergency, sir, the Republican party looks to you as its leading champion in debate in the great battle between protection and free trade now in progress.

With the banner of Harrison and Morton full high advanced, when you lead on to victory, the Repub lican hosts will follow. 4lOne blast upon your bugle horn were worth a thousand men." Again sir, we bid you welcome to native land. MR. BLAINE'S RESPONSE. Mr.

Blaine said in reply: Mr. President and Gentlemen op the Republican Club and Eellow Citizens': To etiable you to appreciate this welcome each and every one of you should be absent from home and country for tbe long period of fourteen months. I am sure you can have little conception of the great gratification of that instant when I saw the shores of the great Republic. I caunot tell you how deeply grateful I am to be remem men, but he bered in this manner by you and the assembled gentlemen. It is a scene I shall never forget It is an occasion which I assure you I appreciate from the depths of my heart.

It is shadowed only by the sad event which greeted us the first piece of American news we heard the death of Gen. Sheridan, a man who wa3 above party and stood for the union of the States Shouts ot "Good." With that exception my arrival upon my native shore was unattended by anything but joy and happiness. The campaign on which you are about to enter should be prefaced, if that were possible, by every voter in the United States. Seeing what I have seen "Good, good" and hearing what I have heard during the last year applause the progress of the campaign in the United States is viewed from the European standpoint with an interest as profound as it is in the United States. It is the opportunity of England.

It is the long wished for the long locked for occasion upon which the cheaper labor and the cheaper fabrics of the old world expect to invade the new and lower the wges of American workingmen to the Eur peun standard. Great applause. It is not a contest of capital agaiust capital; it is not a content of partisan again st partis m. It is much higher than either of these. It transcends all party motives.

Applause. Whether the great mass of American citizens who earn their bread by the sweat of their brow shall be seriously reduced in their emolument from day to day is the whole pith and moment of tbi question. Anythiug that diverts the question from that single point is a weakening of the campaign. Applause and cries of "good" I say here, as I hope to say with much more elaboration loud cheering and cries of "that's what we want" I say here that the wages of tue American laborer cannot be reduced except with the consent and the votes of the American laborer himself. Tbe appeal lies to him.

It comes to his door and asks him whether, with the great of-t'ne sad tht-great majority he possesses in bis own haufls he is willing for and his associates, his childreu and his children's children to take that fatal step, at the bidding of an American Congress and an American President who ate governed by that element which sought to destroy this uation. But gentlemen, it is not a time for a political speech. My heart is too lull to en'er at this time on lengthened argument. In this moment of welcome and joy, getting home to old scenes and old friends I must be allowed to enjoy p'easant emotions of the occasion. I can only add my fervent thanks to e.ich and every member of the club and to all my friends for the generous and joyous welcome they have tendered to me in the Huib of New lork.

While Mr. Blaine was speaking the cabin pajked to its utmost, limits and heads were thrust in through the windows from the deck without, eager to hear every word spoken. The greatest enthusiasm prevailed and eve point made was quickly seiz and cheered. Au outburst of cheering followed the conclusion of the brief speech. Mr.

Blaine was escorted to the ladies1 saloon, where he received a number ot his friends. In a litt'e while he ascended to the saloon on the upper deck, where he received the congratulations of all, having a pleasarf word for all who greeted him. While there he was handed an address by Edward Eitzwilliam of 8ton, representing the Workingmen's Protective Union of Massachusetts. He was presented with an address by Murat Halstead, representing the Young Men's Blaine Club of Cincinnati THE KNIGHT'S INTENTION As to what part he would take in the campaign, Mr. Blaine said he would say nothing about it at present.

He did not think he would go outside lh'e State of Maine uniil after the State election there on the second Monday in September. When asked ubout his health, he at first said he was perfectly well and then added, laughingly. ''That's a question I haven't answered iu three years." To a qnestiou as to the political aspect his reply was that he did not care to say anything then further, than he had said in his speech. Subscribe to the Bee. A Rooms 2a v- Uarnen'pr So.
