Almost three hundred
Negroes Attended
The Convention
In Muskogee
Dec. 5th.

The conveniiou before adjourn
ment passed the following resolu .
tions:
THE negroes of the Indian Terri
tory, in mass meeting assembled, be-
lieve that the Constitutional Conven-
tion for the proposed state of Okla
homa, now in session at Guthrie,
Okla, should make no law nor at
tempt any legislation that would cur
tail the rights, restrict the privileges
or cut off the immunities of any par.
ticular clas of its citizens.
The Indian Territory, or the
eastern half Of the proposed state,
Las progressed and prospered with
amazing rapidity during the last de-
cRde, and every race within her bor-
ders has shared in that progress and
by thrift, industry and rightful liv
prosperity. In common with all other
faces, the negroes of this territory,
ing, have made themselves in a
large measure useful part Of this
lew citizenship.
Numbering approximately eighty
thousand, owning quite million
;.cres Of the soil, possessing personal
and real property to the value of ten
millions and upward, with creditable
representatives in every legitimate
walk Of life, the negroes Of the In
dian Territory show themselves emf
nently fitted to enjoy the fullest
measure of unrestricted citizenship
in the new state.
Nor has this country ever before
been marred by attempts to promote
racial discord, force vicious class
legislation upon any one people such
as Is practiced in certain Southern
states with the intent to throttle the
honest, earnest attempts of the
Ameican negro to secure and protect
his constitutional rights. In this
territory white man, red man and
black man have always lived in per-
feet accord: no hideous lynchinSs to
mar the good name of the territory;
no mob violence to destroy, frighten
Or drive away outside investors: no
lection laws aimed to deprive a
large class Of its citizenship of the
elective franchise because God Gre
ated them black.

DDS or the incorporation of such
mental law of the new state would
be an injustice to a large number OF
her citizens, a disgrace to our west
ern civilization, and the forerunner
OF other vicious legislation that
would cause endless strife, racial
discord, tumult and race dlstur-
Dances.
Therefore Be 1t Resolved, BY the
negroes Of the Indian Territory in
mass meeting assembled:
THAT in view of the negroes not
having a representative upon the
floor of the said Constitutional Con-
vention, that a committee of twenty
five be appointed by the chairman
of this meeting to perform such SER
vice and take such steps as may be
necessary to fully protect our civil
ard political rights in the proposed
new state; that such committee be
empowered to adopt such means.

Whereas, Public sentiment as

BE it Resolved, BY the negroes Of

vention assembled. that the thanks
Of this convention be extended Sena-

efforts to secure immediate con-
gressional action and investigation
of this affair; we earnestly hope and
