SImms, Brown, and Morrison Have Lost
Their Districts Two Year. Running.

SImms. Brown. and Morrison Have Lost
Their Districts Tw" Years Running.
There has been a kick among the colored
Republicans OF the Eleventh Assembly district
against three colored captains OF election dis
tricts, who have held sway for some years. and
whose supremacy is supposed to have been
due to the favorable regard OF Cornelius y.
Bliss. The three captains are Caleb A. Simms
who holds place in the Appraisers Office. and
Thomas A. Brown and Daniel Morrison. both
ofwhom were in the Custom House for n long
time as representatives OF the colored ele-
mcnt in the Republican ranks.
The kick comes. it is alleged by the oppo-
nent- of these men, from the young colored
Republicans who say that the CAPTAINS have
lost their districts two years hand running.
III" cOorcd hepul ,licans were badly wallOped
last year. and the rolJred di strict leaders held
n conference last Wednesday to talk things
over preparatory to tho fall campaign. The
Simms. the coored lawyer OF lO4 West
Twenty eighth street. He is a brother OF
Caleb Simms. Lawyer Simms said last night
that the report of trouble in the colored lie
sentatiOn OF the facts.
"Messrs. Simms. Brown. and Morrison will
be rcappointcd CAPTAINS he said, "and the
regular Organization will stand by them. Tho
objection to them is simply personal jealousy
on the part Of a few.
This is what rolorei man opposed to tho
continuance OF the three captains in office said:
The regular organization will undoubtedly
reappoint the three captains and as result
tho captains will be turned down again by the
colOrcd lepublcan voters. No party can
safely sit down on the young element that de-
mands reform.
The colored Republicans are going to have
another meeting on Thursday night ut Broad
way and Thirty-fourth street.
