Mass Meet1nU.

There was mass meeting of col.
ored men held at the court house
Monday night 10 elect delegates tc
the State Convention Of Colored
Men held In this city yesterday. The
attendance was small, due to the fact
no doubt, that none knew Of it bu,
the "politicians."
,, The size Of the meeting however
did not diminish one lot of the inter-
est The meeting was called 10 or
der by Mr. A. P. Smith, who stated
the object TO be to select delegates for
the aforesaid convention. g. w.
Smith was elected chairman and
E. II. White, secretary. There was
considerable of debate az 10 the size
of the delegation. There were tw o
bases of proportioDment offered; one
was that allowing one vote for every
five individuals and one delegate for
every 100 such voters. Shawnee
would be entitled to eleven delegates,
taking the U. S. census of 1880 as a
bases, which gives this county $500
cOlOred population. The other pro-
position was TO assume that we have
1000 colored population in Shawnee
which would allow us fourteen dele
gates. The quantity basis, as mat
ter of course won.
The chair then appointed A. P /.
Smith, L. Fulbright, q. w. Can
non, E. Handy, G. L. deRandamle,
w. L. Eagleson and J. NJ. Mitchell
as committee to select IA delegates
to tine convention. This list seems
to have been neatly prepared long
before hand, Two or three changes
were found necessary, and after de-
bate and some unseemiy Dandying
the changes were made. Some
thought that a communist had
prepared the original list 80 utterly
was its excessive beyondness.

scene last evening. The attendance
at the fair and festival was much
larger than on any previous evening,
and the social company present
seemed to have a royal good time.
Early in the evening the excitemsnt
over the voting of the gold-headed
cane became quite noticeable, and
the statement that fifteen minutes of
secret voting would be allowed only
added to the interest. When the
votes were counted at II O'Clock the
result was found to be as follows: T.
W. Cochran, 1,185; L. Blackman
633; j. P. st. John, 234; J. A. Martin.

as ten cents was paid for each vote a
snug little sum WAS realized. Mr..
Cochran received the cane expressing
his thanks.
The fair will be continued tonight
as there is quite a fine assortment
of goods to be disposed of, that the
interest in the cane contest prevent
