RESOLUTIONS.
At this time and in this presence it
is nroper that we give expression to our
hearty endorsement of the position taxi
en- by President Roosevelt in behalf Of
equal civil and political rights of every
class of American citizens. The President,
but adhers to and upholds the great prn
ciples underlying our free institutions
and out of which came emancipation and
the 18th, 14th and 18th amendments to
the constitution of our country There
can be no two classes of citizens in this
country
The organic law of the republic pre-
scribes the qualifications necessary to
invest one with privilege with privileges
and powers of citizenship, and we hold
that all complying with said require
ments are citizens of the United States.
We further recommend that copy Of
this action be forwarded to President
Roosevelt as the sentiments of the ne
gro citizens of North Carolina.
