From the large number of$Colored
men who have been elected as delegates
to the Republican National Convention
it is evident, that the man and
brother" will take hand in the nomi-
nation Of the next president of, the
United States. It is stated as fact that
there will be a larger numuer Of Colored
delegates in the comiyk convention
then ever before. Thja'being a,fact, it
must be presumed that the Colored
men weld some poYer and influence in
those states and districts they re-
present, and must represent the work
ing portion Of the Republican party in
their several vicinities. They will be
important factors in securing the nomi-
alton of any man whose name will be
presented to the convention for the
Office of president, and we hope they
will use their strength in furthering the
nomination Of the man who is soundest
on the question of equal rights to all
men. Whoever the man may be, he
will owe his elevation in no small
measure to Colcred Republicans, and
will be in honor bound to respect their
wishes in the future. We hope the
Colored delegates will not lose this
blessed opportunity to have their
strength felt.

It will be remembered the great fuss
that was made over the alleged rape
case in which Miss Angelina Herbert,
white, and Mingo Jack, black, were the
parties. On account of the color of the
alleged rapist he was duly lynched, not
because he had committed rape, but
because the alleged victim was white.
White men are very particular about
protecting white females from black
rayishers and they need only to think
black man guilty to be ready and
willing to hang him higher than
Hannah. Even up here, in the free
Northwest, they have that same fend-
ish prejudice. Only short time ago, a
Colored man was accused of raping a
white woman in Grand Forks, Dakota,
he escaped and came into Minnesota
but was followed by mob and taken
from this state back to Grand Forks, a
team of horses was attached to his arms
and another to his feet and he was
literally drawn asunder. It afterward
TRANSFERRED that he did not commit rape
at all, the woman confessed that he did
not, but that she thought he intended to
do SO when she gave the alarm. Moth
ing was ever done in vindication.
It now seems that Mingo Jack was
murdered by the blood thirsty mob
who sent him to his eternal home.
The following was sent out by the
Associated Press last Monday:
Orchard Carney, Negro under
sentence Of death in Freehold, N. j.,
for the murder of Mrs. Margaret
Purcell, has confessed that he as
saulted Miss Angelina Herbert, a
white girl, two years ago, for which
crime Samuel Johnson, an old Negro
known as Mingo Jack, was lynched.'' -
We have always believed that a
majority of these alleged rape cases
were without foundation and tnat a
thorough Investigation before legal
tribunal should be had when. such
would be found to be the case. We do
not wish to shield criminals, black or
white, but we wish innocent black men
saved from death at the hands of un-
princepled prejudiced mobs of white
men. Lynch law must go.

A. M. r.. Church Notes.

The theme Sunday morning was,
"The Restored Demonial.' After
services the pastor spoke as follows con-
corning the departure of Miss Oracle
Johnson:
s'True merit and earnest effort force
their way to the attention of all persons.
The influence Of those who steadily
pursue noble purpose, though un'
noticed at first, at last becomes mighty
Never despair when your first humble
endeavors seem in vain, for # honestly
made in the cause of right they shall
bear fruit. We are sorry to see Miss
Oracle depart, because in losing her we
lose faithful. earnest, member and
worker. When she united with the
church, she was the only young lady
member, all of her acquaintance were
still in the world. She, however, did
not 90 to them, but continued steadily
faithfully and earnestly, letting her light
shine until at last they came to her
Now score of young people have be-
come christians. The church now
numbers in it's membership many of the
leading society young people. MISS
Oracle vas the pioneer, we will miss
her, but the good resulting from her
christian life and CONSTANT converse
ton will ever remain, a monument to
her memory. Also, Miss Oracle has
been the means of raising over 500 Tor
the church. She has served as stew
ardess for months and is the youngest
stewardess in the connection. May GOD
bless her and on the great day may we
find her among the redeemed. Remem-
Der Miss johnson, as you start away
now with the realities of life, there are
many fiery trials awaiting you, but be
steadfast, unmovable, do right, trust
God, and at last all sorrow will give
place to endless joy.
Tie members Of the various classes
then pressed forward to bid her farwell.
It was a touching scene and one not soon
to be forgotten. Old gray haired fathers
and mothers wept as they pressed the
hand of the young disciple whom they
had learn to love, young friends shed
tears of sorrow as they said farwell,
many heart breathed prayers for
Gods blessing upon the faithful young
pilgrim. 1t should surely be to the
young people an incentive to noble liv-
ing and an attestation of the truth,
faithfulness wins appreciation.
The Sabbath school was very interest
ing. Elaborate preparations are being
made for Children's Day. June "a. The
evening services were largely attended
and interesting, the benedictlon was
pronounced at $40 o'clock.
The theme tomorrow evening will be
''The Mission ofWomanhood.'
The choir rendered most excellent
music. Miss Glenora Roe has deyel-
oped most wonderful contralto voice
and under the instruction of Prof. Lucca
gives promise to be vocalist of no
mean ability.
Mr.. Moses Davis is so far recovered as
to be at his accustomed place much to
the delight of his many friends. Mr..
Mark Ford, and Mrs. Cornelia Grey,
