Governor McGill did long DELAYED

Governor McGill did a long delayed
act Of justice last week by pardoning
Mr.. Samuel Mcfarland who was serv-
ing term of seven years in the state
prison for crime he did not commit.
Mr.. Mcfarland had served something
over two years of his time and was in
poor health and the act of the Governor
was one of justice and humanity. The
APPEAL has made several mentions of
the accused and the case, and did it's
mite toward securing the pardon of
Mcfarland. During his stay in the
prison Mcfarland won the good will
and esteem Of Warden stordock and all
the officers about the institution, all of
whom were glad to see him set at lib
erty. Mcfarland was the victim of cir
cumstances and race prejudice and
like poor dog Tray was punished for
being in bad company. His case should
be held up as a warning to other young
men who 60 in bad company. McFar-
land says he has had enough of it and
earnestly promises to shun such society
in the future. We hope the people will
help him to keep his promises. He
seems to be young man with a good
heart and should be assisted to begin
life anew and in the right direction.
The governor has the thanks of the
Colored people for his act of humanity
and Justice ...

President Cleveland has endeavored
to make little political capital. by COM
muting the sentence of Emanuel Pat
terson, Colored, a convicted murderer of
Arkansas, who was sentenced to hang
Sept. 2sth, to imprisonment for life.
He will not make much however. If he
wishes to show his interest in the well
fare of the Colored citizens he might do
something to stop the unwarranted
killing of them in the southern states.

antecedents as we'll as from the actions
of Capt. Snider we believe that in him
we will find such man and now hav-
ing paid the debt of gratitude we owed
to Mr.. Rice let us look after debt of
consequently by voting for Capt. Sni-
der, and sending to congress from this
district an ardent supporter of the
principles Of the party that at least
makes profession Of according to the
Colored man a fair. showing, and the
party that has shown by former actions
that it Will do something for us. There
are Thousands of COlored men and
women who, four years ago, held posi-
tons of honor, trust and emolument;
positions of responsibility, that had a
tendency to elevate, improve and en-
rich them, but, who, now, haying..been
turned out by democratic administers
ton are brewers of wood and drawers
of water, or something Intimately worse.
We must have race pride, and must put
aside selfish ends once in q while and
do something for the welfare of others,
and by so doing, we will in the end get
our share ofthe benefits. We rise or
fall together, and the sooner we learn
this lesson the better it will be for us
all. We published a sketch of the life
of Capt. Snider in our issue of Aug. 18th
which it would be we'll for those who
did not read it to hunt up and read.
1t will bear some testimony regarding
his feelings and actions where Colored
people are concerned, Hon. Edmund
Rice did not wish to be renominated
but he was too good a democrat to dis
obey the behests of his party and SO he
is their candidate again and will be
just as good a democrat in congress as
he was before. We wish to see this
district properly represented and to Sc
cure this end a republican must be
elected, we wish this from a republican
standpoint, we wish to see the district
represented in congress by man who
will vote right on measures affecting the
welfare of the Colored people of the
South, we wish this from a race stand
point. We believe Capt. Samuel P.
Snider to be the man that will fill the
bill and we hope every Colored man
will work for him and vote for him and
thus be entitled to share in the glory of
his election which we feel sure will be
accomplished next November. And do
not vote for Snider alone but vote the
republican ticket from eend to eend.

Whereas, the Colored population of

wears has increased so rapidly as to be-
comea very important factor in the
politics Of the state, and
. Whereas, many Colored men who
have been forced to stand forth as in
dividuals rather than as representa-
tives, and were thereby placed in 20
sition which has laid them open to
serve criticism and perhaps tempted
them at times to mis1 epresent the race
and place personal interests before race
interests, in order to unity the efforts
of all and conserve the best interests of
the race,
Belt Resolved That, we confer
ence Of Colored citizens assembled for
the purpose of devising ways and
means to secure to the Colored citizens
AUST and proper POLITICAL recognition,
do hereby issue an invitation to all the
Colored citizens of Ramsey county to
meet Ell mass at --- Hall on Tues
