NUlYIC4 TED.

EDITOR BYsrANDER- DEAR SIR. /
sincerely desire a little space in
your respectable columes for the
purpose Of appealing to the colored
voters to be on their guard in re-
gard to the great political issue of
the day. Now every day colored
voteres are being consulted
as well as greatly insulted by
Bryan men, who are trying in
every way and manner tn induce
them to vote the Democratic tick
ct. Now what does the silver
Bryan element mean? In every
sense OF the term it means nothing
more or less than the continuation
of the proceedings Of the Demo
cratic party for four years longer,
and right here | will call the
attention of the colored voters to
as to how the colored raceis recog-
nized in the Soath. As to public
institutions, especially to rail road
affairs. Are colored people in the
South, even after paying first class
fare allowed to ride in first class
cars? No. not much, but Jim crow
cars are arranged for them, and
in which they are forced to ride.
Now | do most earnestly desire
to ask the colored voter every
where whether or not they regard
personal and race respect and il
they do indeed / can not see how
they can be induced to vote for
Bryan. To vote for is simply
voting for the Democratic party,
therefore do sincerely appeal to
the voters TO be very careful in
considering the great political issue
of the day, because it is a matter
of great Importance to the colorcd
race and the colored voters should
give this matter clear and honest
consideration, Thus, pointing di
rectly to the recognition Of the
colored race IN the south. Aud
by their ballots onthe 3rd day o.
| November, 1896, show to the
world that they do as a raeA re
gard self-respect most nlgh!ye iign
