purpose of trying to discredit him with
the administration and the leaders OF
the republican party. They might az
well have remained at home for all the
good they accomplished, for Col.
YOungblO0d is today the leader Of the
Alabama republicans, recognized as such
by the President. He is the Alabama
member fthe National Committee. His
gentIemanly department and fine exc
cutiYe ability aud the generally satis-
factory manner in which he has per-
formed his duties, have merited the
cOmmendation and respect of every
chief Of the Treasury Department. 1t
was Col. YOungblCod's able argument
against the Payne resolution before the
National Committee that did much to
turn the tide and save the republicans
OF the South from being deprived Of
their proper representation in the ns-
tiOnal republican convention. He is be-
Ing unjustly sssailed by men of his
P~At5 y LCL4 A7 AaS hOiPON w OAAhS W
the front, but he has the confidence of
the real republicans of Alabama, white
and black. This fact goes without the
saying He is trying to build up the
party in the state, but he cannot do it
with Office seekers. 1t must be done
by men who cherish the time hOnOred
principles Of the party, and who are
willing to stand up for national honor
and human rights. Col. Youngblood
is one oi the most substantial friends
the oolored man has ia public life, and
our people never forget their friends
when he storms come.
