TO DEMOCRATS OF COLOR.
An Invitation to BE Present at the In
disnapoIis Convention.

WASHINGTON, August S.--The Afro
American Bureau Of Organization Of the
Democratic Congressional Committee has
issued the following call.
ITO Democrats Of Color In the United
States:
The National Negro Democratic League
will convene IN indianapolis. Ind. on the
nth instant II is hoped that negro Demo
Gratis from every State and Territory will
be- present to evidence by their presence
and voice their loyalty 10 the policies and
principles of the administration.
AT no time In the history OF negro
Democracy has there been greater
necessity for counselling together, to
determine the future course and
poIicy OF the negro in America
The present business stagnation, due TO
the riotous legislation Of the last admlnis-
tration. is being held up to the great mass
OF negroes by the Republican press of
the country as the result OF Democratic
ascendency; through this convention may
be heralded the true facts and causes 10
the negroes OF every State.
eft is a matter Of sincere cOngratulation
to note the answering fealty shown 70
the Democratic party by our people IN
Alabama in the recent election. Possibly
the HIST Tune Was ttt fpNf
directly appealed 10. and its response was
evidenced by a return of large Demo-
cratic majorties in every negro county in
the State This open appeal to the negro
vote Is and should be specially gratifying
TO you, and the negroes generally. since
it forever refutes the statement made by
our friends, the enemy. that the negro
Is not wanted in the Democratic party,
and at the same time II evidences that the
negro vote Is a factor. and is destined 10
become more so as he exercises an in
telligent discrimination in the use OF his
ballot.
Let the forces then gather in great
numbers at Indianapolis. and join In a
harmonious and intelligent discussion Of
the conditions confronting us as race.

out specific causes. which. SO far as
known, was not alleged In this case. To-
day the Seer. tary removed Mr.. hayden.
