to ourselves, we ought to nominate color
ed man of this district for congress in 1884.
Our choice would be DR.. j. II. Msgee, of
Metropolis, member of the state central
committee and give him our unanimous
support. II the administration can afford
to appoint and keep such men in positions
as refuse to give US representation, they are
responsible for the result that would follow
which would elect the Democratic nominee
by three thousand majority. If we nomi-
nate colored man, the Republicans will
defeat him, as they did 10 W. Il. Harris
case as county clerk of Pul aski county. A
county OF four hundred Republican MAORI

which shows they will not support color
ed nominee aud the heads Of these depart

no worse and the sooner We act the better
it will be for our future manhood, II there
is to be no change, why should we continue
to support aud keep them in office. We
have been in conversation with number
OF the leading men OF this district and
they suggest that conference of the color
ed voters Of this district, be held il this

vote was polled in nearly all the wards,
though it lacked some Of being the tull
voting strenth as indicated by the vote
cast for Congressman last November. The
coored people we're out in their usual

received his principal votes. Many white
people, friends of Mr.. Halliday, under q
ban OF lsziness, were not out at all, think
lug his election assured without their aid
Had all come out as they should have done,
Mr.. Hallidsy's majority would have reached
five hundred; but as it is, his majority
is extraordinary, not approached by even
bic strongest predecessors
Mr.. Holidays election is triumph,
not only for himself personally, but
for the policy Of the city government,
10 so far as it has been guided by his super
ior judgment; it is a datterlug endorsement
by the people, of Mr.. Hsllidsy's views and
actions as councilman for these many years,
aud au expression of confidence IN his sbili-
ty aud purpose to guard well the interests
of the city at large. The BULLETIN heart
ly congratuates the people Of Cairo upon
Mr.. Hslliday's overwhelming election.
