The treatment OF the colored voters
in the northern and southern sections
of this country by Republican leaders
Is leading to an open revolt on the
part Of their black allies. 1t is caused
by the effort Of these politicians to

anri.machine Democrats that they
would join the Republican Party were
it not for the utilization Of that organi
