At meeting held recently in the
Charles Street A. NJ. e. church in Bos-
ton the Hon. Joseph G. Manning OF
Birmingham, Ala, referring to the

in Boston. The minds of the northern
people have been inflamed by southern
politicians until now they look on the
Negro with the same feelings as the
people Of the south.
while l am not trying to arraign
the president of the United States. I
am sure If you had the organization
the other races have he would pay att
tention to your demands that the
wrongs of the colored people Of the
south be righted. ..-
Some time ago. when a delegation
of colored men went to see the presi-''
dent to try to have him Incorporates
into his message to congress something
concerning the conditions of the Negro,
they were dismissed But when dele
cation of Jews went to see him In or
der to have an inquiry made into the
alleged discrimination against He,
brew in the United States army then
he paid willing heed to their request
If you had the same organization and
the same one mindedness the other,
races have you could get something
done.
1.-The poor Negro at his cabin door,
with his wife and baby by his side,
has as much right to be protected as
his white fellow citizen. And how can
that protection be secured? Only
through the ballot which has been
taken away from him, only by the use
of the vote which has been denied to
him. There is nothing more cruel than
the fact the southern Negro once had
the vote and now has no voice in pro-
tecting his race.
81 am sure that just as soon as the
American people are made aware Of the
true state Of affairs in the south they
will demand that the negro be return
ed his right to vote. At present it is
in direct violation of the constitution
Of the United States and Of the Dec
laration of Independence. 1t is taxa
ton without representation and in d.
rect contradiction Of the principle that
all men are created free and equal"
