REPUBLICAN MEETING

The colored Republicans of the city held
a meeting last night at the court house. A
good audience was present of both colored
and white citizens.
Col. Rogers dispensed music for the oc-
cassion and received generous cheers for
his good singing j. E. Henly, chairman
of the committee called the meeting to or
der and briefly reviewed the insidous
snares Democrats were laying TO catch the
votes of unsuspecting Republicans.
Alexander Clark, Republican candidate
for coroner, was then introduced and in
neat and clear manner explained how he
came to be nominated for that Office; not
for policy but because he had the courage
to ask for the place. He gave an outline
of his life in Sedgwick county, reaching
back to the early day and of his devotion
to the principles of the Republican party
He eloquently plead that his race stand
firm in the rock of Republicism and shut
their eyes to the advances of their
enemy, the Democracy. The next speaker
was S. l.. L. Robinson, who in logical
and forcible manner tore away the mask
in which the Democratic party is now
masquerading and showed the inconsist-
ency of Democratic pretensions. He as
sured his friends that Notwithstanding
rumors to the contrary, he was ''for the
whole Republican ticket first, last and all
the time"
Mr. Jacob McAfee was next introduced
and in a rousing manner recited the his
tory OF the enfranchisement of his race,
in thrilling manner illustrating the
deeds of heroism and valor performed by
the colored people during the late war. He
declared for the whole ticket and urged
all of his colored brethren to stand firm for
the party that had done SO much for them.
Mr. Sam Williams followed Mr.. McAfee
and announced that this was his first eff
fort at public speaking. Notwithstanding
his inexperience, he brought down the
house several times over his telling points.
The best of feeling was manifested and
the audience dispersed satisfied that the
colored people were all right.

resolution was then submitted bv the c;tv

resolution was then submitted by the city
attorney requesting all city officers to re-
port to the city attorney any accident that
| might call for damages from the city.
| Healy asked the object, of the resolution
and the mayor answered that it was to en-
able the city clerk to secure evidence in
the interest OF the city as soon as any sc-
cident occurred and not allow LAWYERS
who were hunting up business
expecting to get half they made out of
such cases against the city. to fix ND evil
dence for their side of the case "as has
been done in the case just reported to the
| council"
Mr.. Coffin being member of the firm
! filing the petition referred to the crowd
| including many councilmen, set ND an
| awful howl-not a moderate yell. but
sounded like political convention. Mr..
| Coffin was Oh his feet with the sparks fly
| ing from his eyes long before he could be
heard. He commenced to file objections
to any such reference to him and asking if
| the mayor meant to say he had been drum
| ming up business in that way.
The reply for the first moment was made
mostly with the mace ordering him down
and declaring him out of order.
Coffin did not down and said he had a
right to have a fair understanding in the
matter and all the time color leaving his
face.
The mayor was quite red and eyes spark
ling looking at Coffin and showing
no mercy on mace or table. He
declared he did not cast any reflection on
Mr.. Coffin, he only stated fact that had
no reference to him. Then a councilman
interrupted and understood that it was
reflection on Mr. Coffin and another
said it was not if properly analysed.
1t was suggested to take a vote on it but
that was too slow and Coffin asked the
mayor if he meant to say his firm had So
licited business. and he replied that he did
not. This practically ended the wrargle.
A verbatim account of the dialogue would
in a certain way be very interesting and
show more energy than elegance. But it
finally simered down and the resolution,
an explanation of which created so much
excitement, was passed and the council
adjourned

To walk In higher paths; it's then that We
