They Will Vote for McKinley and Sound Money Electors. Correspondence of The Evening Stsr. MONTGOMERY, Ala., October 8, 1896. About 100 representative negro politicians from all portions of Alabama met in Dor- sette’s Hall here for the purpose of pro- testing against the action of the white leaders of the state in refusing to give the colcred republicans representation on the campaign committee appointed to conduct the presidential and congressional cam- paigns in this state. Among those present at the conference were some of the strong- est negro leaders of the state, and their deliberations were, in the main, marked by Positiveness, tempered with moderation. The meeting was calied to make a formal protest against a secret organization known as the White Shield, which, it is alleged, Proposes to keep the negro down politically and industrially as we!l as socially. It was charged that Wm. Vaughn, chairman of the republican state executive committee, was a member of the White Shield, and that this was the reason he placed no negro on the campaign committee, though the negroes compose easily eighty per cent of the mem- bership of the party in the state of Ala- bama. The speakers who addressed the meeting stated that the white leaders of the party had in the past been handling trem as though they were the tools of a mechanic, to be brought out and used as the occasion required, then to be returned to the tool chest to be locked up until an- cther job was secured. The white leaders, they said, had sold them out to the popu- lists, then to the democrats, and now they Proposed to turn them over to the gold money democrats, and thay now began to feel that if they were to be delivered to this democrat and that democrat it was about time for the negro to say for him- self the kind of democrat he woull prefer to go with. The meeting adopted resolu- tions condemning Chairman Vaughn for his discourtesy to the negro race, pledging all to the unqualified support of the Mc- Kinley electoral ticket and to the support of republican nominees for Congress in dis- tricts where nominations have been made and in districts where no nominations have been made to the support of the sound money democratic candidates. A comimit- tee of twenty-two was appointed to forward the cause of McKinley, and to look out for the interests of the negroes of the state, and the conference pledged itself to see that Vaughn was succeeded by a negro. > Marriage Licenses.
