One Fl. V. Cashin, who, by the way,
is Republican oficeholder, being re-
ceiver of public moneys at Huntsville,
Ala, is out in a card, stating: 5.a
There has been agreed action by
the colored Republicans with respect
to party nominations and the few hun
dred who were registered refrained
from all participation therein, thus
giving ample opportunity to build up a
Republican party, under conditions
which appear to many white Republi-
cans, as most promising, and which
will prevent the least embarrassment
to- those who have hitherto voted with
the Democrats on social considerations
while differing with their party upon
state and general questions. q. 5z g
+ Besides, it is generally admitted
that popular government is at present
a nullity in the state, and it is con-
tended that the situation is due to a
past or present fear Of Negro domina-
ton, Therefore. if the voluntary dis
reimbursement of the few remaining
colored voters will contribute nearly or
remotely to the restoration of civil Lbs
erty, can conceive of no nobler or
more imperative duty
Mr.. Cashin, who is an Afro-Ameri-
can, has queer ideas Of the restoration
Of civil liberty" History does not rec
ord a single case where a people have
gained greater rights by: giving up
those already conceded Rights must
be wrested. The Afro-American must
not give up anything; he must fight
and die, if necessary, to maintain all
he now enjoys. 5.s5
Mr.. Cashin has given up his right
to be a delegate to nominating CON.
yention and the next move will be to
ask him to give up his Office, for the
