REPUBLICAN TREATMENT OF
NEGROES.

When the last national political race
was in full swing. Republican leaders
freely promised the Negroes that they
would be cared for when the patronage
was distributed. Those promises evil
IDENTIFY were writ in sand, for so far
neither the President nor any member
of his cabinet has appointed Negro to
office. To make matters worse. the
Republican National COMMITTEES is
planning TO change the basis of rep
resentation Of the Southern States in
the national conventions, thus cutting
down the Negroes power in that party.
These facts should call for much study
on the part of honest Negro leaders,
who so far have not received due re-
ward for their Iabors. Many OF them
are beginning TO feel that they are
looked upon merely as "hewers OF wood
and drawers OF water" in the Republi-
can party-men who are desired when
the temple is being built, but who are
