NO COLOR LINE DRAWN.
hr. Norman of Falls Church Ex pla ins
His Attitude at ConventiOn


I'm The Star of Wednesday last" said
MI. Isaac F. Norman of Falls Church, Va,
10 Star reporter today, lin connection
with the report of the republican county
mass meeting, it was stated that l had
sought to draw the color line This show :
mat my position was misunderstood What
did advocate was that the colored voters.
who had been called there to meet in mass
convention, should be given a reasonable.
number of delegates to the state and dis
trlct conventicEs. There were nine dele
gates and five alternates to be elected to
etcn OF these conventions. l asked that
the colored voters be given four of tn.
nine delegates and two of the five alter
mates to each convention. This ] thought
TO be a most reasonable request when we
take into consideration the fact that at
Least 60 per cent of all votes cast In this
county, Fairfax, for the republican ticket
are cast by colored voters. If there iat.
been any disposition on the part OF myself
and the other colored voters present 10
lake advantage of our white friends we
coulu easily have accomplished that end
as the Colored voters present outnumbere.l
the whites two to one. l made no charges
which l have not the most ample proof 20
sGbStantiate. We have at Falls Church
and in the vicinity many true and earnest
white republicans, who are up to date in
their Willingness to recognize merit Wncr-
ever found. There are others, however.
who are republicans. not from principle,
but for revenue only, and this latter class
are always seeking to down any colorel
man who has the courage of his conyic-
Tons, and who will stand up for his own
r shtS or the rights of his race

IMPORTANT PENSION DECISION.
Persons Who Enlisted in Confederate
Servic 10 Escape Will Get Pensions


Service 10 Escape Will Get Pensions.
Acting Secretary Reynolds of the Interior
Department rendered decision Yesterday
that the government cannot withhold a
pension granted under the act of June %,
1890 to reimburse itself for moneys er-
rome ously paid pension unCer the gen
eral law when such pension Was not pro-
cured through fraud.
A ecision was also made that where an
attorney, in his appeal, with view 10
showing right 20 a fee, attacks his client $
right to pension, such objection cannot he
considered in determining the D.erits of the
appeal, and the appeal itself will he dis
missed.
A decision of great Importance and in
volvng . millions of dollars worth of
claims was made effecting the presumption
from the fact that a soldier, while in a
rebel prison. enlisted in the rebel army,
that he aided and allotted the rebellion. l.
is now held that this presumption may be
set aside by proof that it was his intention
by enlisting TO escape TO the Union forces
