DRIFTS away
From the CRY Almost As

TIE Democrats profess not 10 want
the coIored vote and along this line
they are making LOUD protestattons
against the Negroes voting. They
say the Negro is Ignorant. does not
know how to vote and that he sells
his vote.
Developments here the last day or
so show that they are anxious to get
some colored votes, which is con-
fession that they realize they Will
need more votes than they can mus
ter to win. They are even willing
ntIw TO accept all the Negro votes
they can get, though they so bitterly
hate the colored race and never let
an opportunity escape to berate,
abuse, degrade and otherwise injure
that race.
1T developed that they ran across
a traitor to the colored race, gen
tleman of color. born in Virginia
hut recently of Charles Town, this
state. They found In this fellow, by
name w. NJ. McLoine, willing hire
ling and they doubtless promised to
pay him well, when they procured his
services to quietly go over this state
and do what he could to organize
Bryan clubs among the colored peo-
pie The plan was to make believe
they were Bryan clubs, but the real
object was to get colored votes for
Bennett, the man who Is going over

Negroes ought not to have the right
to vote and that If he is elected gov

quickly drifted out again. as he found

the Republican ticket.
But. before he went he conferred
with some OF the Democratic leaders
and their henchmen and special
confab was held when he and the
News man got their heads together
and quietly talked it over. This
conference was looked upon by the
conferees as one OF great import, so
much so that the mouthpiece OF the
Democratic gangsters with an at
tempt at diplomacy carefully and
painstakingly tried to conceal the
spy's presence tn-the city.
N The work mapped out for the
emissary of the Democratic state
committee to do here. however, did
not even arrive at the initial stage,
as the hope of the Democratic gang
found it convenient and. salutary to
90 hence hurriedly. He went back
to the Democratic state headquarters
without starting the commissioned

his pay in advance he has likely
learned by this time that there was
