Colored Delegates, p. 2

"Colored Delegates - Among the delegations from the Southern States to the Chicago Convention, says that Marysville Appeal, are several colored men : J.II. Harris of North Carolina, Lynch of Mississippi, Grey of Arkansas, Duman of Louisiana, Cardoza, Randolph and Delarge of South Carolina, Berry of Alabama, Saunders of Florida, and Turner and Costin of Georgia. If the Democracy refuse negro delegates to the National Convention to assemble at New York, on the 4th of July, the negro vote in the Southern States will probably be lost to the negro Democracy of the South. The black-white man’s party, if determined to fight for a division of the negro vote, must admit negro delegates to the National Democratic Convention. The Democracy have got to swollow negro suffrage in the South and they might as well start in first as last."
