The object, as set forth in the resolutions, is to thoroughly organize colored republi- cans thrcughout the country into a soiid phalanx for the purpose of securing the renomination and election of President Mc- Kinley. A general plan of organization was discussed and the substance of an ad- dress prepared. The following officers were elected for the ensuing year: President, C. A. Lemar; vice president, Thos. W.Chase; secretary, John W. Garrett; assistant sec- retary, Henry Jarvis; treasurer, Richard Rollins. Resoluticns were offered by C. A. Lemar, and unanimously adopted, setting torth that present political conditions favor a broader and fairer outlook for the colored race, and as the fulfillment of the destiny of the negro is dependent upon the con- — ; a tinuance of present political conditions, augmented by a mdfe #idespread commu- nity of interest, affecttmg our moral and material status; tharefoge it is-the duty of every law-abiding aad rogressive colored citizen to contribute means and devote his energies to advance the cause of republi- eanism and perfect an organization which wn homing. the better forces of the race, ; hem toward tuating re- publican administration. Z It was further resolved that in view of the wise and magnanimous spirit mani- fested by the present administration in- its attitude toward the American people, without regard to race or color, this league solemnly pledges itself to vigorously and faithfully devote its energies to renominate and elect Maj. William McKinley to the high office he is now filling with such dis- tinguished vigor and ability, ardent pa- triotism, wisdom, economy and humanity, believing that in the continuance of his broad statesmanship the whole nation wil soon be taught to recognize the folly of race prejudice and political intolerance, a concede to all political and civil este OSS Ose Save money by buying at Hoeke's clear- ing sale.—Advt. be) at Bucks Harbor, Me., has returned to the city.
