THE FINAL APPEAL.

Voters of Sangamon and Morgan
counties desire good, wholesome in
formation when it comes to SHOW
down." about voting. This we offer:
For State Senator there are two men
to consider-Logan Hay, Republican,
and Elmer A. Perry, Democrat. Why
should any Colored man not support
the Republican? When the Demo
Gratis get control of any branch of the
government, some mean man in the
party offers bill to curtail the Ne
groes' civil and political rights, and
the Democrats rally together, even If
some individual Democrat is opposed
to it, he votes with his party Hence
the danger of substituting Democrats
for the Republicans in the law-making
branches of this State. 1t is not a
question as to whether one party or
one man is perfect and does his or its
full duty, but a question as to the
ittest of the two. Consider which of
the two men you can get better re-
suits from. Mr.. Hay is allied with the
progressive dominant party; he knows
larger number of the Colored voters
support him and his party, therefore
he feels it his duty to give them con
sideration, not as a race SO much, but
as American citizens and citizens of
Illinois.
Mr.. Perry, on the other hand, Is not
expecting much assistance from Col
ored voters and will not do anything
for them, If by any means he should
win. He will not credit any part OF
his success to the Colored vote, and
you will not get any consideration and
no friendly legislation.
Therefore we desire to- instruct the
Colored voters of this district to stand
solidly by Senator Hay. Make good
showing in all the Colored districts
and see if Mr.. Hay does not give this
and Morgan county, so far as he can,
due and proportionate consideration.
Remember Mr.. Hay is a man of
courage and does not have to stoop
to low things. II he says thing he
has the manhood to do it. We need
such men in the legislature,
|. Taking retrospective and per-
spective view of the situation, seeing
that under Republican administrations
Illinois has more Colored employees at
her capitol probably than any other
state in the Union, we desire and adj
wise that you support Mr.. Hay to the
man and the legislative ticket in its
entirety.
We have renewed confidence in Mr..
Hay and believe there will be a change
for the better II he 10 reelected, both
in the county and In the city, next
spring
