1t is most significant of the large
part which colored voters play in
the Republican party that the only
precinct which that party carried in
the recent election was the one over
which there was a colored commit
teeman and colored committeewoman.
1t is the precinct at Five Points, No.
l in Ward 5.
Colored persons took large part
in the city election. Sixty workers
were used by Republicans under di-
rection of the colored headquarters.
number of others were hireu in the
precincts. The Democrats employed
large number as special officers and
workers, and many were volunteer
workers for the citizens. The elec-
ton was marked by the greatest par
