IIIT THEM FIGHT TT OUT

Colorcd people should now watch
with interest the fight now being wa,e
ed between the two wings OF tho Demj
ocratic Party in this State. Both aro
Democrats. but one has secured tho
machinery of tho regular Republican
organization and has taken pains 10
exclude the colorcd people even from
the galleries, so to speak. for foar
that some one Will charge that the
Party is still the Negro party. The
headquarters havo bcen removed "a
the palatial Jefferson Hotel. where
poor whites" and Negroes are nor
wanted. The silk stocking" crowd is
In absolute control.
We advise our, people to lot these
two factions OF the Democratic Party
fight 1t out amongst themselves. Let
colored voters go to the polls and vote
for their own candidates and lot those
white Democrats have an opportunity
to find out which OF tho two factions
Is the stronger. If Col, Henry w. All.
derson with the large treasury Mt his
disposal put up by diBgruntled Dem.
ocrats can overthrow the Democratic
machine in this State. let him max.
hhe effort. In naming Hon. II. d. Flood
as chairman Of the Democratic PARTY
tho regular organization Democrats
have done the best they could under
the circumstances.
Inc goal 10 tho United States Sen.
