Washington has a higher aim than to bluster in politics. He is a minister of the gospel and his desire is to sow the seed of moral influence among the people of his own race. He has had the advantages of a good education in Illinois, and when the call for troops came he went to Cuba. Being honorably discharged, with high compliments for his honor and fidelity, he again took up the task of teaching the colored people along moral and religious lines. Recognizing the great need of his sen Ices in the middle west, he came to Sail Lake a fe w months ago apd has been doing commendable work.

Washington has also established an employment bureau to furnish female help to housewives. He brings from the east and south capable colored women as domestic servants.
