discussed the political issues OF the can

finest speeches of the campaign. lts
effect was most telling upon the rank ana

There is less interest manifested by
the colored voters in this campaign than
has ever been known since their enfran-

Democratic ticket. and some one or two
are electioneering for Cleveland. but the
ma iority OF them are attending TO their
