Colored Men of South Baltimore in
Mass Meeting.
From the baltimore american. May ID.

From the Baltimore American, May 10.
There was great mass meeting OF the col
ored voters of South Baltimore last night un-
der the auspices of the citizens committee of
one hundred, at Hermitage Square, corner of
Sharp and Montgomery streets.
AT the opening of the meeting resolutions
were passed pledging themselves to support
an Independent ticket, and voting for no white
Republican unless he agrees to vote for such
colored candidates as in the judgment of the
various conventions are just, proper and pro-
portonate to their political strength. Also,
condemning the action of the board of police
in refusing to permit colored citizens to file
applications for the police force, and also con-
demning the action of the Maryland Institute,
through its off ,ers, in refusing to admit col
ored pupils.
The address of the evening was made by W.
Ashbie Hawkins. He said in part "We
want a better system of schools throughout
the state, and want the privilege of earning
an honest dollar at anything we can do that
the public has to give out We do not want
TO have our color continually made b ,rrier
TO keep us out of places which VIC are capable
to fill, and we want our children taught by
those whose interest in them is not measured
by dollars and cents. We want those whom
we helped from poverty into influence and
from obscurity into power and fame remember
that the same power which elevated them can
reduce them to their original standing. We
have the right to vote, and we want to have
the corresponding right to be voted for, and,
furthermore, we want the privilege of select
ing our own leaders, and, then, if they go
wrong, we will assume the responsibility"
