Reported for tie Alexandria Gazette.l
The Colored Citizens Protective League
met Monday night WIKI Msgous L. koo'D-
son presiding end VIM a. Garter secretary
Several new names YES eHsrsd for H1enoef'
snip and referred tbs chairman vas
author;z ID TO rent permanent pltcs oi
meeting. II was determined TO hold pup
lie meeting Wednesday evening uDGer tue
auspices of the league. Chairman Robinson
in few remarks eaid he had been criticised
bV some white republican leaders, and even
thew were ouesIopiI G his republication be-
ceuse Ia dare do hfs duty to his race, and
defend bis own manhood. He said, how
ever. these very men had, but in short space
of line, given him their official endorse
ments. If be was good republican then,
he must be stil one. He only wanted
them to make their endorsements good to
his race, ifnot his own. 10 the language OF
Flanagan, OF Texas, what are we here
for, if not to get the Offices ?" The white
men in the republican party OF the S;h
district are in large minority, and, II they
are unwilling TO share the honors and emol-
uments of politics with the blacks, they
must be called to account. Our movement is
to s.raightan out matters. I'VE are going TO
succeed. The custom house and poetomce
lords will not rule the rocst much Logger.
The 'inexpediency resolution which was
rsilroaded through the Manassas convex
ton will find complete answer next Nc
yember in no uncertain sound. Coored re-
publicans are not all fo)is. Thtr, is just
as much expediency In suuuing repub!l-
can candidate this year as there has been In
the past. WiIl-she cut and dried machine
refused to give u, a candidate, but the colored
republican privahs will soon be in the breach
with a candidate whom it will be very 'expe-
dent for every black man to vote for" BE read
letter from prominent colored republican OF
Louisa Court House, who said: I'VE are with
you, and the people of this old county will not
stand any such treatment. Yes, put republican
candidate in the field, and you shall have the snp-
port of the republicans of this county. Louisa
county republicans have ION treated badly and we
do not intend that those selfish leaders in the re-
publican party shall mako US their slaves any
longer II men are to US always, we arc not
worthy of the name of fres people and free voters
Place an independent republican candidate in the
field and Louisa II fall into line. II you desire
me to come, will and tell the story. Give US
republican c,ndidate, and and my people will
rally to him."
