Getting Together for Victory.

The old republican party seems to
have gone to wreck with peti-differen.
ces or jealousies, and especially the
wide gap separating the Progressive
and Standpatters. They have had a
hard battle at the primaries and various
conventions this summer. In fact near
ly every state these two factions have
met in battle array, and the progress
ives have Won in most Of the fights.
They are now in control Of the party
if all of their nominees could be elect
ed. Of course we have left just enough
of the old guards in the nominations to
lend hope and consideration to the rank
standpatters, that he is very anxious to
have them elected, so on the other hand
the young, active progressive is so
very eager to elect his men so the ten
dency is to unite as each party has in
terest in some candidate; and they say
we'd rather have half a republican
than whole democrat; but what we
colored voters ought to know, is where
do we come in? We suppose as usual
the end!
