Our Cily Affairs. In opposing the re election of Mr. Wilson for Mayor of our city, a prominent objection was the corruption, extravagance and consequent high taxes which would characterize his administration. He was elected. Laws have been defied and evaded.

The public funds hav; continually leaked, and to day we find ourselves 10,000 in debt, and the administration disgusted with itself. This latter feature is the saving one, and the people are to the front to inaugurate under the sterling leadership of Mr. Bradford Miller a new era in OJr city affairs. The retiring administration proposes to use the taxes that shall come in by the 21st inst. in squaring me present indebtedness, so they may say they left it out of debt.

Of course they also leave it without a cent in the treasury. Well, we can stand tnts Dei ter than a continuanre of the firm of Wilson, Cochrane Co. Good Till December 28, ,000 Given Free. No btich offer was t-vi-r invert before. 7ttentv lessons on the organ, FORTY lessons on the piano.

Liberal Discounts for Cash Why do not the church officers put an end to the boys' and young men's standing around the church door and keeping up a noise? There is no excuse for the disorder about our churches.

There is a probability of closing the Lane school lutchie addition, in consequence of that part of town having reverted back to the country by a recent decision of the District court. This would throw a large body of children out of school privileges. Senator Plumb has introduced our petition.

The mayor gone. to M. to credit.gettmg, beer-dnnking young vagabond, who is lost to all sense of shame and is possed of an unlimited supply of cheek. As may be immags ined, there is in such a conception am pie opportunity for a bright, breezy performance of a farctal kind, and of this Mr.

Ferguson takts full advantage. He succeeds in etting out of the part a good deal of fun, and occasionally makes a point which calls forth shouts of laughter of the most uncontrollable kind. That the dude as played is ex ceedingly funny there is no room to deny. It is intensely ridiculous, and the audience is kept in a broad smile all the time this tight-irousered, short-coated and big-hatted creature is on the stage. Phil.

Off.ce, ISO Kansas Avenue. 9TZLKPBOHIL I The city does not make as much noise as some of its neighbors, but it are germs of higher culture than our co-temporaries can boast of.

Bethel Fhilomathean cut quite a swell Thanksgiving, treating the rpublic to a musical and literary ex. ercise ot consiaeraDie merit. The young folks here are giving i i 11 li mucn time ine cunure oi iuubiu. There are fully one hundred study ing the various instruments of the musical profession. South Leavenworth will soon boast of a new choral and literary circle.

The Glass orchestra of South Leavenworth is progressive and prosperous. The Kansas Conservatory is afc tended by many colored pupils who show great love for music. The Colored Catholic church has been remodeled, and is now one of the most beautiful churches in the city. Their choir, though msall, renders some angelic music. A.

M. E. choir has the best male voices of any colored choir in the state. And with a little labor could surpass them all in devotion al singing. lnd.

choir take very little part in the church services, And the Baptist Sabbath-school i3 decreasing. The Broadway BaDtist church had a brilliant festival last week, The Up-town orchestra meet at W. 15. Townsend residence. A glance at negro life, as a per- son of that race is able to see it reveals race characteristics and features strange and unparalleled.

In the columns of the Tribune and many of its co-temporaries we read of many negro nabobs or of the many wealthy people of our race. All of which is of no bene fit to the race except to know that certain individuals possess it. The talent of our race has opened but ew respectable paths of life; preaching and school teaching benefiting the greater number. Our young people in time would have as many professions to choose rom as white youths if the wealth of our nabobs was put into stores, actones, and the like, which would employ colored clerks and workmen. Our business knowledge thus gradually developed and our wealth expanded would eventually raise us to a standard in the world similar to that of the Jew.

We must not expect to rise in the world through the patronage and E)ity of other races. We must earn to use- whatever we have so as to benefit our people and eventually the whole race. Many young folks feel much wronged, and that their talents have been trampled under foot because white men will not give them valuable positions. simply because they are capable filling them. The white man hav ing these favors to bestow, prefers that his people shall have them and does only what a noble heart ed negro under the same condition would do.

What we want to learn is not to envy, but to emulate him Not keep the individual wealth we have hid away like misers gold, but put it into some enterprise that the benefits arising from its use may bo spread among our people. Such a course alone will destroy that characteristic peculiar to our race inability to create wsitions of livelihood. UYLlNNlus. Mountain Letter. Leadville.

Dec. 4, '83. XlJClt? nun UilDiaAQ nx isui xaov article which we wish to correct. The name of the Bociety organized in the Baptist church here should have been the Royal Civil Rights club instead of the Royal Rights club. There was a Literary soci ety organized at the A.

M. L. church on Thanksgiving evening, with A. W. Ramsey chairman, who appointed J.

T. Mitchell, P. John- son, and cott committee on perminent organization. We are not prepared to give the names of thft otliflr officers. The ovster sun- per that was served by Mrs.

Sav age and Mrs. Furgerson after the other exercises was grand. We believe the Bociety will be a sue- cess, lhe oaii given Dy uie ciud on the evening before Thanksgiv ing was a grand success. We were informed that the ladies were dressed elegantly. Mra Thomas Lee who has been having a very serious time with the fever, is able be out with her two daughters.

Mr. Phelps who has been sick for some time, was aoie to attend church last Sunday. The Bible reading at Mrs. J. T.

Mitchell's on Monday evening was largely attended. Next Sunday will be the first Quarterly meeting at the A. E. church of this conference year. Mr.

Berry Jawing who has been sick for some time is slowly im proving. Mra. d. J. Motley is on the sick let W.

IL Hickerson was not able attend church Sunday. a to or of Hj. church, bunaay evening, was largely attended; there were two more members added to the church making five in a month. Elder A. W.

Ramsey, who has been somewhat indisposed for sometime past with a severe cold, rheumatism, neuralgia, sore throat, and hoaresness is slowly recovering, and we hope will be able to fill the stand on next babbath. Mr. Wm. Jones, who was shot in the heel or ankle about a week ago is improving as fast as could be expected. The Union Thanksgiving Services were held in the M.

E. church corner 3d and Spruce streets, in which all the ministers of the city took a part. Sermon by C. T. Stout the Episcopal minister, after which all of the ministers with a number of friends were invited to Rev.

J. Wilson's (pastor of the M. E. church), to dinner where all fared sumptuously. A.

W. Ramsey took a flying trip to the iron mines Thanksgiving, behind Prof. Harker's sorrel team. We are having the finest weather we ever had at this season ot the year. J.

T. Our Next Mayor. Mr. Bradford Miller, the present county treasurer, has consented, after being asked by the leading business men of lopeka, to be the people's candidate for mayor. Mr.

Miller is an old citizen, an upright, honest, and honorable business man. Just the man the city needs at her head. He is a tried and true Republican who ought and we believe will be supported by all good citizens. The people may well feel proud of their candidate. Special attention is called to ex tracts from a friend to the Tribune in Missouri.

It is a good letter of salient points. It seems that in his county that prohibition has brought success and happiness. Mr. Douglass has given a good ong letter to the country upon our condition. It is commended highly by the press.

Whv don some big warm-hearted white man now ap peal to his race for the simple justice which our condition demands? A Despairing Letter. O'Donovan, the English correspond ent with the Egyptian army against the False Prophet, writes: "1 am writ ing as near death as il is possi ble to be without being under sentence of execution. However, to die even here, with a lance-head as big as a shovel through me, will meet my views better than a slow sinking into the it grave, we are 1,500 miles or so ironi Cairo, In the midst of a wild, unex plored country. The Egyptians, wnh whom I am camping on the banks of the Nile, will hive but one chance one tremendous pitched battle. The enemy are as courageous and cruel as the Zulus, and much better armed.

Our army is that which ran before a handful of British troops at Tel el Kebir. We are obliged to march in a square, with our iggage and water camels, 5,000 in number, in the midt. lest the enemy's calvary surprise us. We only march ten miles a day. After twelve o'clock the heat is frightful.

It takes four days to gel from one set of wells to another. Then we find the wells filled with stones or earth, of the rotting bodies of men and camels' Then we go back again, with the enemy hanging on our flank, watching every opportunity to make a dash- I am pretty well ac customed to danger, yet I feel how terrible it is to face a deadly peril in the company of cravens. I sent you a flower plucked from a shrub at my tent door. I wish I could send an ad dilion to your menagerie. Green monkeys here come to drink at the river by thousands; gazelles wander ing: all kinds ot beautiful nls can be had for a couple of pence.

I my self have three camels, two dromedar ies and a horse Hippoiotaintises, giraffes and leopards are our neighbors. In the woods and rivers we ste more crocodiles than are pleasant- Some, twentv-nine feet long, he basking in the sand, with gaping jaws and wink ing eyes. We marched out shortly to fight a decisive battle. 1 fear we shall get the worst of it. Then not a man will escape- 1 Friendly Tip at the Chestnut.

There were any number of dudes at theChestnot Street Theatre last night, end they laughed immoderately at Mr. W. J. Ferguson's representation of "dude on his uppers" in a play en titled A Friendly Tip, They laughed because the burlesque was so broad as be unrecognizable. There was no reason why they should feel insulted aggrieved- The character, as Mr.

Fetguson pictures it, does not touch on one ot their weaknesses, save as to the matter of dress, and in this if follows them so closely that they admire the fidelity of the copy rather than grow angry or feel pained that he is attempting to ridicule their particular attire. He does not attempt to make the dude the languid, light-brained lazy, insipid creature that this type of our modern society growth really is. Oa the other band, he conceives the character as a lively, rattling, unscrup- lt The Freedmen's Academ7 OP KANSlS. DTTRLAF, MORRIS CO, MS.
