TIE VOICE OF TIE VOICE.

''The standard Of the Voice is
the Golden Rule" is the utteranee of
an editorial in that paper last week.
Just below it, however, is an article
which is about as far from the Golden
Rule as July is from December.
Speaking Of the Negro Democrats
here attending the late Democratic
Convention it says that the Negro
Democrats were denied the privilege of
entering the convention hall as such,
that they tried several doors and failed
to get an entrance. This is, we be-
Ieve, true and like a good many other
truths, more false than true. Now,
this may be a sort Of Irish bull, but
nevertheless true. The facts IN the
ease are these. Arrangements had
been made for the entrance Of march
ing clubs, but it was understood that
they were to be there at certain time,
but as our folks generally are, the
Colored folks were an hour behind, and
the convention had been called to or
der, and in consequence no marching
clubs, white or black were admitted.
The editorial goes on to say that
after the first three days, not one of
the visitors could be found in the city,
Now, this is out of the whole cloth
for q number Of them were here and
wore their badges up until the last day
Of the convention. Not only this, but
these gentlemen were literally sup
piled with tickets and not only went
in themselves, but a number Of ou1
local citizens had the pleasure of sit.
ting in q Democratic convention. fol-
the first time in our lives.
While it is true that nothing wa.
said in the platform in the interest Of
the Negro, nothing was said against
him. And if it is true that the Negro
Democrats were sat upon as "The
Voice" would have Us believe, the con
vention sat down equally as hard or
Senator Newlands with his anti-fran
chise plank. As a matter of fact and
We wish to be fair, the Colored people
: who visited the Democratic convention
were better treated than were the
Colored people who attended the lasi
Republican meeting at the Lyric, where
they were relegated to a certain pOr
tion Of the gallery, especially set apart
for them. The Republicans "Jim
Crowed" Us while the Democrats al
lowed Us to sit where we pleased. We
nave nothing especial in common Will
the Democratic party, but as journal
ist we desire to be at least fair. Il
would be well for ''The Voices to b
