There are about 40 black voters in this precinct and as a matter of courts, they will vote with the Back Radical party, some may be candidates of that party at the coming municipal election. As there are only 200 white radicals in town, we are sure that the 40 black ones will be entitled to a representation of one fifth of the delegates in the Radical nominating convention. We hope that equal and exact justice will be show to the colored population in that Convention. They should see that their rights are respected and represented in the radical convention. |
