to take a hand in the fan election and |
force recognition from the hands of the
Republican party = such step is pos
sible.
In this hundrei. mere are about $50
colored voters. many of whom are reg
istered although but few voted at the
two Republican primaries, possibly
forty in all. they claiming that they
would keep hands off until the Difficult
ties existing between the factions were
settled. For some time past the color
ed voters have been talking "recogni-
ton" at the hands of the Republican
party which they claim they have al
ways supported, but from which they
have received no direct benefit in the
way Of party recognition in Offices.
To Form a Ciub.
The first step in this direction will be
taken when meeting Of colored men
win be held in the colored schoolhouse
on williams street this evening and a
club will be organized, and when sew
eral prominent colored politicians from
Wilmington are expected to be present
and make addresses.
1t is said that the object Of the or
ganization will be to present to the Re-
publican party claim for some offices,
minor though they may be- and i'm the
event Of refusal a straight hundred
ticket will be named, including Rep
resentative and will be properly filed
and voted for at the fall election. In
the event Of promises of recognition
being made by the Republicans such
promises must be made i'm a manner
that will make them available after the
election is over, If Republican victory
results, and that verbal assurances
will not be accepted.
Just how far this move will proceed
cannot be determined nor what the re-
suit will be. 1t is intimated that in
view of the fact that, with the excep-
ton Of Representative, the Republicans
in this hundred are united, there is
! Democratic influence behind the move
ment which movement if carried out
will draw a number of votes from the
Republican ranks therebey strengthen
ing the position of the Democratic
candidates. The outcome of the move
ment is watched with interest by poll
ticians of both parties.
