At meeting of the colored citizens @.
Denver, held in their Baptist church, on
Monday evening, August 18th. 1873, the
meeting was organized by II. o. Wagner
acting as chairman, and John Shipton secre-
tary. The object of the meeting was then
stated by the chairman, as follows:
The object Of the meeting ia to ascertain
how far the removal of VIM j. Hardin from
the United States Mint, at Denver, was con-
nected with prejudice on account of race or
color. AS his appointment was the first and
only one of any colored man in the Territory
to an honorable and profitable position, un-
der the Government, we consider his removal,
Under the circumstances, "a a blow aimed at
every colored man in the Territory, and one
that we are called upon to inquire into
After the matter had been brought to the
attention of the meeting the following com
mittee was appointed to draft resolutions
expressive of the sense of the meeting, viz !:
II. l.. Moss, II. X. FELTON,, A. Mostly, II. W.
Harris, and John r. Gunnell. This com
mittee reported the following resolutions,
which were unanimously adopted
Whereas we deprecate and condemn all
immortality in colored men, in common with
all other men, but we do not feel content to
tamely submit to the tyranny which has so
long sought to rivet its chains upon us by
condemning, convicting and diSchargjng, be-
fore giving the accused fair and impartial
trial; and as we are well aware that il is
settled and well-defined principle the world
over, that every individual is considered in
nocent until proved guilty; therefore,
Resotred, That we regard the removal of
VIM. J. Hardin from his official position in
the United States Mint at Denver, as high
handed disregard of a common right of all
citizens, and especially with reference to the
only cotored man holding office under the Gov
eminent in the Territory, and that such a
dismissal upon mere charge, without a trial,
is Il dangerous precedent to all citizens, and
especially to the weak and defenselcss.
ReSotred, That whenever the leading menu
bers of the Republican party, or the Rcpub-
llcan party, as such, or any other party, cease
to represent the true principles of equality
before the law, or the equal public rights of
all citizens, without regard to race or color,
then they cease, in our judgment, to have any
just claims upon the support Of the colorcd
voters.

MOUNT PLEASANT, Aug. 70, 1873.
t. TIE Editors oftte Esw National Era aad Cai.ea.
Pursuant to call issued on the 9th instant,
by Rev. J. Z. Underwood, Qate of Column
bus David S. Bruce, William F. Gaskins,
and your correspondent, meeting of the
colored citizens of Mount Pleasant and vicin-
ity was held in the A. NJ. f. church, on
Thursday evening, the Dist instant, the OBJ
ject being to take consideration of our politi-
quite number of citizens present, the meet
ing was called to order by the appointment
of Murdoch Joiner, Esq, as chairman,
and ]. L. Champ, secretary. The chairman
called upon Rev. Mr.. Underwood to state
the object of the meeting, which he did in a
few terse remarks, referring more particularly
to our own town and county. He showed,
among other injustices, that the claims of
the colored citizens had been entirely ignored
by the Republicans of this county that there
had never been one colored voter drawn as
juryman, and that whenever colored man
had announced himself as candidate for any
local Office certain professed Republicans
had banded together to defeat him. He also
spoke Of our proscriptive school law, and the
disadvantages to which Our children are SUBJ
jected from the effect thereof. He was fol-
lowed by D. S. Bruce, Esq, W. F. Gas
kins, and others with brief but well pointed
remarks.
The committee previously appointed on
resolutions reported through their chairman,
W. F. Gaskins, the following; which were
read and unanimously adopted:
Whereas we, the colored citizens OF Mount
Pleasant township, in obedience to call
duly issued, have met in council, TO take in
consideration our political and educational
interest, especially that part in which we feel
aggrieved by being prescribed in many Of our
just rights and privileges as free, response
BILE American citizens; therefore,
Reaoired, That the Republican party Of this
county and township, in using our votes solely
for the purpose Of eleyating white men to
Office, and excluding colored men IN every
instance from places of honor and trust
elective or appointiye) has Derpetrated an
injustice upon the colored voters no longer
to be submitted to without protest.
Resolred, That we believe principles 10 lie
higher than men or parties, and SO long as
the Republican party adheres to its principles,
which are just and humane, We pledge our
selves to stand by that party, and no longer.
Resolved, That contrary TO the declarations

Of principles enunciated ia the Philadelphia
platform of perfect equality before the law,
