William Calvin Chase
William Calvin Chase (1854–1921) was an African-American lawyer and newspaper editor. A native of Washington, D.C., he attended Howard University. As well as gaining admission to the bar, he edited the ''Washington Bee'', a weekly newspaper, from 1882 until his death.
==Biography==
Chase was born to free African-American parents in Washington, D.C. in 1854. His Maryland-born father, an expert blacksmith, died in 1863, and young Chase was raised by his Virginia-born mother, Lucinda. A boy during the administration of Abraham Lincoln, he became a lifelong member of the Republican Party. Within the first year of the founding of the ''Washington Bee'', in 1882, he became its editor and remained in that role until his death in 1921. Chase married Arabella McCabe in 1883, and the couple had children.〔
Soon after taking up editorship of the ''Bee'', Chase also attended classes at Howard University Law School in 1883-1884. Continuing his editorial duties, Chase did not take a law degree and maintained his legal studies privately. He was admitted to the bar in Virginia and in Washington, D.C., in 1889, and practiced law thereafter in Washington. His standing as a lawyer and editor made Chase a Republican Party leader in Washington, and Chase was named as a District of Columbia delegate to the Republican national conventions held in 1900 and 1912.〔
