Over 900 republican delegates
in Kansas, 50 of them colored.
Colored people Of the state asked
for only one Office. Out Of the
great number of votes present the
colored man got 34O-35 of these
were colored. This shows that
over 600 of those delegates were
opposed to Negroes holding any
Office direct from the people.
This is sweet republicanism in
free Kansas. -Anerican Citizen.
"Life without hbety' says one
of our exchanges us robbed of its

white Americans for they certain
ly do not recognize the brother
hood of man when it come to
dealing with the Negro. -Stan-
dard.
