just about the time the people of the
country was getting in sympathy with
these principles these little nie-eating
place-hunters began selling them our.

progress of these reforms and it would
take ten years to recover from the Of

Republican Chairman Holton was put

what kind of uniforms these could be,
they could not be the Confederate gray
for the negroes would object to this and
il could not be the Yankee blue for the
old Confederates would object. 1t must
be a military cap made from the wool of
the black sheep in the fold.
He wanted a straight Populist ticket to

opposed to fusion with the Republican
party. much was being said about the
negro. he wanted to say that the colored
race was not competent to rule and reign
over the white race and he wanted TO say
and he wanted the colored men to hear
him say that if they insisted on cOnstrol-
ing matters and ruling over white men in
localities where they were in the major
itv one of these days they would
wake up and find themselves i'm a hot
country. The Democratic party had
treated the negro fairly and given him
his rights under the law. He did not be-
lieve there was white man in Wake
county who was Populist that favored
this Republican fusion unless he was
an oftice-holder or was hoping to get
