nre many saints whoso memories bright

Cathollo ; In fact the number of sslnts
being so excessively multiplied It was
found too burtbcnsouie to t'edlcato a
feast day to each. In reality there were
not days enough senrco hours enough
n the year for this purpose. Hence an
expedient was bad recourse to by com
memorating such In combination as had
no peculiar days of their own. The feast
was first established by Tone Boniface

MAYOR FRENCH
Holds Open tho Door to Soelnl
. Equnllty.
Tne colored vote lias been greatly
sought after by the ring Democracy and
inettion Known to corruption and
fraud has been left untied to secure it.
Money has been lavishly spent emtsarlc
have been active in their behalf among
the colored men; meetings have been
held at which tho Democratlo nominees
have sought endorsement and some of
them even claiming to havo received
uch endorsement: but It has remained
for Mayor French to furnish the last In
ducement to secure the negro vote. At
a meeting oi colored men in iuo AUiru
ward which was addressed by several
well known Republicans a ollceman
named Rodgers who claims to be "col-
ored" but who has mora white blood
than necro In his veins with unblushing
Impudence ns bo was not Invited to
speak rose and proceeded to tdviso the
colored men to voto tho Democratlo
ticket and as an inducement to do so he
said tho colored men would sooner reach
social enual tv" by uoing with tho
Democrats I This hireling's speech was
doubt taught him by HIS Honor I and
it was spoken In his Interest if the
people of this city and county don't sit
down upon this demagogue they de-
serve to bo ridiculed throughout tho
land
Tho Colored Voter.
iU no election hcretoforo held In our
State has the colored voter been placed
n position of Independence llko the
present; and at no previous election has
such opportunity offered to show his
constancy nnd reliability as a political
element. The colored men at the Stalo
Republican convention at Fort Worth
set up their claim for precedence In tho
Rennbllcan organization of the State on
the score of numbers and tho plea that
the colored men were nil Republicans ;
ino Houston convention in ceptem-
r. thn colored men were aaain In the
ascendency and tho decision of that
body Is the law of the party. It was
then deolded that there should he no
State ticket put In tbe Held and tbat
Republicans should aid all Independent
candidates favorable to the defeat of tbe
Bourbon Democracy. This decision as
to tne policy ot tne pany is as solemn
and binding as a nomination would be.
Following out this line ot policy Repub
licans In tho Congressional districts and
in county politics havo endorsed Inde
pendent candidates it remains to be
tested whether the colored voters will
o to the polls and cast a solid vote in
favor of the party policy they havobeen
mainiv instrumental in auoDtintr. or
whether they will become tbe allies of
tue jiouruon party in iuo ntnte oy vot-
lnir ior liemocratio canuiuniea in oppo
sition to Independents. This election
win no n turning point witu our colored
voters If Ihey desert tho Republican
nartv in mis contest sanies are mean-
naless unless properly applied. To call a
colored man a Republican because he Is
colored man la ridiculous. If a colored
man votes tor the Democratlo party
and mrnlnit the policy of tbo ltcnilbll-
party tie is a iiemocrat nnu suoum uo
