WE should have liked very much
to publish the proceedings of the
National Cvlorcd Press Associa>
ton which met in Chicago On the
Odd of August, but space will not
allow us SO to do; however, we feel
bound by the action Of the Associa-
ton and give some Of their import
ant Resolutions below.
WHEREAS, The Freedmen ofthe Uni
ted States hayes have under the permis-
sion Of treaty with the Seminole In
dams, every legal and moral right to oc-
cupy the lands known as Oklahoma Ter
ritory. Therefore,
Resolved, That we use every means
possible to secure the opening Of said
Territory to the Freedmen, as provided
in said treaty,
Resolved, That we den,and mixed
oSAVviG, WApAVfSA PAaSOkOduiCiay huU WUtu
impracticable, we shall insist upon colored
teachers only being employed in public
schools.
Resolued, That we support the Malone
movementin Virginia, for the reason that
it will soonest secure to the colored vo-
tiers of that State, free and fair ballot.
Resolved, That we tender thanks to
the Chicago daily press, for the courtesy
to us during the sessions of our conven-
ton.
We should have sent the Associ-
alton o communication had we not
been among the hills Of Western
Carolina.
The next meeting Of the Associa>
ton will be held in Washington, d.
G., where we propose to meet with
it. In the meantime, brethren, let
each do his whole duty.

has passed, and we look to be re-
cognized as q people titled to our
share of due consideration at the
hands Of the administration. We
want to see intelligent colored men
have some Of the positions, but as
long as such men as John r. Smith
and his gang of hungry vultures are
allowed to step in position the first
thing they do is to try to frown
down the efforts of every colored
man who tries to get a position, no
matter how deserving he may be.
The Republican party is composed
of white men and negroes and a
mans color is no longer a bar to his
eligibility to vote, hold Office, and
enjoy the rights Of an American cit
izen; and we hope the day is near
at hand for John R. Smith to walk
out and make room for Republi,
can to step in who will not look on
all negroes as thieves, but will ac-
cord to colored men the rights they
are entitled to, and who will dis
charge his duties at all times without
fear or favor.
The STAR is a Republican paper
and its aim will ever be to advance
the interests of the Republican par
ty and promote our best men to Of
fee regardless of color. A few
weeks ago the Messenger stated
that the colorcd men were trying to
make John R. Smith take colored
nan in the Office and that John h.
Smith suited the public for Post
Master. Tile shoe fits Meother foot.
John R. Smith promised the colOred
mem he auonld take a colored clerk
u order to get them 10 sign las pc
ition: and the colored people were
'nly trying to get him to fulfill his
promise.
The cat is out Of the bag and
John r. Smith has lost the conf-
dence Of Republicans, Democrats
and negroes, and the majority Of
our citizens look forward with much
pleasure to the day for him to walk
down and out. John R. has been
feeding too rapidly on Uncle Sans
smoke house and has "bit off more
than he can chaw."
