THE TANEY HUNT AGAINST COLORED
AMERICANS

committed against freedom, including the lnGlgnl
ties heaped upon the unofendng colored men il
these United States, are directly or indirectly the
work Of those connected with the Administration
party-and all, too, in the name Of American
Democracy.

imposed has done something to Offset, and perhap:

Island colored citizenship.

fused by the authorities at Bath, his customary
license as skipper of fishing vessel. He was

was made but it availed nothing King Slavery
is on the throne.

zens, and unless democratic wire-pulling prevails
