Charles H. Smith, barber, of thi
place, both colored men, addressed
Democratic gathering in the court
house Saturday night. The meeting
sYas attended by large number 0
white and colored voters. Bot
speakers said that they were Dem
ocrats from principle and not from
policy. MCGEE addressed himsel
principally to his colored brethral
and gave them a plain, outspokel
talk. He said the negroes are Repub
licans chiefly because they believe til
Republican party freed them, bn
this he proceeded to show is not true
and that they owe their freedom NOR
to the Democratic than the RepubIi
can party: that the secession Of TIL
Southern States was the cause whic
led 10 their freedom. He said that ig
norance keeps the colored man in tn
Republican party, and as soon as h
has some education he becomes
Democrat. His address lasted 70
an hour, and the speaker was FIRE
quently appIauded for his plai
words TO the colored men. Smit
made short speech and discusse
the force bill. Both made exceller
speeches.
