Moore, of Dur ham and party of fort -seven other colored men of unsavory political records issued a circular which was full of misrepre sentations calling a convention of colored Republicans to meet in this city on No vember 3rd. Prior to this writing we did not write a line about this "Demo cratic Aid Society" (as it was properly dubbed by Mr. G. T. Foster, of Gran ville county.) from the fact that we wanted to eee if the colored voters of North Carolina could be deceived by these conspirators against their liberties and rights. Notwithstanding the re duced railroad rates on account of the colored fair, and after the druming of the town by a bras3 band, only about thirty men (ten from abroad and twenty from Wake county) assembled in the Court House in obedience to the call. The Democratic newspaper men were on hand, early to print glowing accounts of the rebellion of the many negroes against the grand old Republican party, but they soon found out that the prom ised great numbers, would no more ma terialize than did the thirty thousand pledged against Russell last year, hence they soon got dipgueted and lost interest in the meeting. But to the proceedings. The meeting was called to order by Dr. A. M. Moore, who asked Rev. C. H. King (the only other signer of the call besides himself present, except one oth er) to take the chair, which he promptly did. and rewarded Moore by requesting him to act as secretary. The long paper, misnamed the "Call," which had been drawn by some designing lawyer, was read by the secretary. Regardless of the fact that the Call invited all of the negro race to come together, yet a committee on credentials, consisting of Nelson O'Kelly, David Pulaski Lane, both of Wake, and R. B. Fitzgerald, of Durham, was appointed to dtcide who should be permitted to take part in the meeting. This was a good beginning toward let ting the people find out something about the plans of the meeting. Nelson O'Kelly is the bolter who ran independently against Jim Young in Wake last year in order to elect a Democrat, and David Pulaski Lane was the general manager of O'Kelly'8 campaign and treasurer of the fund that they bad with which to defeat Young. The committee retired and ion returned with a list of names, vtry few of whom were present as delegates, but many present repudiated the meet ing and asked to have their names drop ped from the roll. Among this number were, Messrs. Ed. Smith. Demrsey Smith, L. M. Mason, C. H. Wiliiamson, J. T. Howe, C. C. Roach and others. For a few minutes it looked as if the bottom would drop out of the whole thing, but the chief conspirator, R. H. W. Leak, in order to stop the stampede, got the floor and made the same speech that he made just two years ago in a similar convention, and moved to appoint a com mittee on resolutions. The motion was adopted and Leak, D. P. Lane and H. R. Goodson, all of Wake, was appointed the committee. You all know Leak and Lane, and the people of Wake aie well acquainted with Goodson, but by way of introduction to those who do not know him, we will say that it was three of a kind. Mr. Scotland Harris, of Halifax, was called on for a speech, and he made an old time Republican one, which was as much out of place in that gathering as a ppeech endorsing Democracy would be in a National Republican Convention. It did not set well with either the white or colored Democrats present. All of these things had taken place be fore a permanent charmain had been elected, and Ed. Johnson, who had been slated for that dishonor, and who had been anxiously awaiting an oppoitunity to deliver his prepared speech of accept ance, was becoming so nervous and rest less and jogging the memory of the tem porary chairman who seemed disposed to hold on as long as possible in whis pered conversations that the spectators noticed his discomfiture. However, Mr. G. T. Foster, of Granville, came to the rescue of Johnson and moved that he be made permanent chairman. This was done, and Johnson at once ascended the judge's stand and began that speech which had been troublinghim for two long eary hours. Of course as it had been only two weeks since Johnson had at tended and took part in the Young Men's Republican League and had sought end been given office in it, he could not en joy his dual position and was forced to make a rambling-feel-your-way-spetch bo B8 to try to ride the two horses which are going in the opposite directions at one and the same time. Among other things, he said that the McKinley admin istration had refused to appoint a negro postmaster of some little eastern town (presumably Kinston) because the white Republicans said it would hurt the party, and that the colored people had only one more place now in all the State than they had heretofore held, and that was the place given Jim Young as fertilizer in spector. He made many other state ments about on a par with these, the fal Bity of which was known to all present. The report of the resolution commit tee was cow read by R. H. W. L?ak, as follows : "1. Resolved, that this anization be known as the Lincoln Republican League. 4 2. That the object of this organiza tion is to promote the interests of the Republican party and secure 10 colored Republicans their just and proper recog nition. 3. That any Republican voter may become a member of this organization by subscribing to the by-laws, rules and regulations thereof no color-line to be dJTHWD "4. That this organization will not vote for any man or set of men who are not its friends." Then follow the by-laws and rules, which provide for a president ; nine vice pr sidents (one from each Congressional district); a secretary and two assistants ; a treasurer, and an executive committee of twenty-seven (three from each Con greisional district) and the other officers. The executive commi t.e is to be ap pointed by the president. Any officer rray be removed by the executive committee. Provision w made for the organization of subordinate leagues of women to co oeiate with the State League. The following addresR to the colored voters of the Suite was al-to issued : 'We call upon all Republicans in North Carolina to observe the following rules in their voting hereafter : "1. To vote for no man whoia opposed to giving the negro hU full and due rec ogni'ion. 2. That before any man is nominated to an office we should exact from,him a written pl-dge that he will give one half of hid clerical force to colored Re publicans. "3. That all nominees to office shall give a pledge in favor of negro educa tion. "4. That we see to it that those col ored men who are willing to trade their race off for office, are not nominated by us." After the reading of the resolutions, and Leak's second delivery of his same old speech, John Williamson, of State fame, and who had the day before pub licly declared himself a Dtmccrat, arose and attempted to epeak. Messrs. G. T. Fcetar and Fletcher Lockhart, of Wake, objected, but after all Williamson was allowed to proceed, and while making one of his usual tirades called Lockhart an old scoundrel. This was more than Lockhart could stand, and he at once went across the room and let loose on Williamson, and for a while blows rained thick and heavy. The tumult was great, and the band that wad in the house played, "There's a hot time in the old town to-night." When order was restored the resolutions were adopted, as was also the addiess. After that Leak arose and delivered for the third time his speech, and among other things eaid : "If there's nothing in the Republican party for me, I'm no longer for the party." "What are we getting out of the party now $1. Oft each. What for? Uoing around here whooping up the boys all night long and voting all day. The white Republicans get over a million dol lars of offices." "I'm done with them unless there's something in it for me. If you don't put up good men in the future, I'll not vote lor them. I've never voted a Dem ocratic ticket. But I tell you now that unless you put upbttter men thany u've ben putting up since 1876, I'd not vo e for them. I'll vote for a dog first. I know some of you don't like it, because you are lick-spittles." Sam Hill said he had never got any thing lrom the Republican party he had been a Republican from principle. "But as sure as you are born, if jou put up inferior men in future, I'll etrike them. There's been too much selling out." The trouble," said Chas. Cardwell, "i that we have been led along by the nose too long. You may bold your con ventions and pnt upas many bad men as you please, but I'm going to bol l my conveniion at the ballot box and cut them down." At the conclusion of thes speeches, the following additional officers were elected, and the convention, tiaving been in ses-ion four hours, adjourned: R. H. W. Lak,of Rtleigh, was elected chairman of the executive committee. Grant Foster, of Granville, was chosen treasurer. K. B. Fitzgerald, of Durham, was made first vice president. The chairman was autor:zcd to ap point the eight rcniai. ing vice-presidents. It was apparent to all present that it wfcs the same old gang who, headed by Leak & Co., bed, in lb95, attempted to organize the colortd voters byjust&ucb methods so as to defeat the Republican party in the campaign of 1S9G. They made a signal failure in the efforts then, and they will do so now. These men should have no standing among loyal Republicans. They are wolves in sheep's clothing and emesiriesof the Democratic party. Keep your eyes on them. As a rule the columns of the Charlotre "Observer" have been fre fiom that venom and hatred of the negro and his rights that cbaracterizts the " News and Observer" and Wilrniagton "Messenger,' but we nor ice for the past few weeks a letter in the Sunday edition of that paper written from Raleigh and signed by a ekunk who calls himself "Ithuriel,'' which smacks very much of the Joe Daniels gantr of writers. This venomous old reptile insinuates that the Colored Fair is an endurance which the white people r f Raleigh ought not to submit to. He is forty years behind the times but shows his good eene by concealing his identity behind the nom de plume. His column is the only dirty one in that otherwise clean and progressive paper. The result of the elections held in sev eral States last week can better be sized up by the remark of President McKinley. who said he "was well pleased with them," than by any observations of our own. However, the results in Ohio and Maryland are especially gratifying to Republicans, because in the former form er State that able exponent of Republi canism, Senator Hanna, will be re-elected to the Senate, while in the latter State some other loyal Republican will succeed to the Senatorial toga so long worn by that blatant demagogic Senator, A. P. Gorman, who, as the leader of the Dem ocrats in that bedy was a great barrier to the progress and prosperity of this country. The Folid South remains broken. The Colored Fair this year was a de cided t-ucceas. All the old officers were elected, which means, of course, that next year's Fair will eclipse all former attempts. ATTENTION WASHERWOMEN!
