The theatre was filled to its utmostjea pacity, and the stage was filled with rep resentative Colored men, called together to denounce the Republican nomination of Henry L. Hertz as Coroner. E. H. Morris piesided and E. H. Wright was secretary. Stirring speeches were made by Mr. Morris, and J. W. E. Thomas, Rev. T. W. Henderson, H. C. Carter, John H. Howard, County Attorney E. H. Bliss and Isaac P. Rivers. With the exception of Mr. Bliss, all of the speak ers roundly attacked Mr, Hertz. Near ly 2000 persons attended. Nearly every representative Colored man in Chicago was present, and every sentiment of hostility to Mr. Hertz was received with the most decided remarks of approval. The speakers declared Mr. Hertz hadin A suited not only the Colored people of Chicago, but the race everywhere in the United States. One of them said that nearly all present were Republicans, but they were Republicans who now dared to assert their rights. They had protested vigorously against his nomination at the time it was made, but they were not listened to. Mr. Thomas, one of the speakers, declared this was because the Colored people in the past had tamely submitted to any and all wrongs, and to the further im pression that those that could not be won over by pursuasion could be bought over. That time had past the Colored people now knew their importance in politics and they proposed disciplining tne Ee publican party a trifle. It wasstated by one speaker after another that the Col ored people of Cook County are practi cally unanimous in then purpose to vote against Hertz. "Mr Hertz was nominated for Coroner in this hall, and the meeting lo-night is an Indication that his funeral has begun here," said one. Another speaker said: "If Mr. Hertz would stick his head in the door he would find an answer to his question, 'What are you going to do about it?'" A series of resolutions was presented and adopted amid the most enthusiastic applause. These resolutions, after recit ing the fact that a coroner's jury had re turned a verdict to the effect that it was pernicious to morals lor Colored and white children to be employed together, and that Mr. Hertz had indorsed this sentiment, adds that "Henry L. Hertz is unworthy of our support, and that we will support and vote for Mr. Nelson, for Coroner." The Silver Leaf Glee Club sunga num ber of songs during the evening, two of which referring to Hertz, set the meet ing fairly wild with enthusiasm Speak ing was continued until after 11 o'clock.

A Little Political Advice Re ligious MattersAbout Naughty People Local Laconics. Every Colored man should look ,r- ward to the election which is neai and decide that he will see that his vote is properly recorded for Harrison, Mor ton and A. E. Willson, the Republican nominee for Congress from this-district. The fact that Aaron Kohn and Ex-chief of police James Whallen seem to be the leaders of the Democratic party, is enough to prohibit the Colored men for voting the Democrat ticket. Everybody knows Aaron Kohn, and how he used every means to criminate one of the race, Wm. vPatterson who was hanged last June. He was untiring in his efforts, and surrendered at last in having the end he sought accomplished. Aaron Kohn h-s lost his grip not only with the Colored people but the best think ing class aud most influential white people have lost confidence in him and sav they cannot be identified with such a man. Aaron Kohn wants to be re elected to the place of Alderman for the 4th ward which position he has held for several years, but we are glad to know that e\ery Colored, man the ward is acquainted with his name and shall do what they can to defeat him in December. As we understand the pastors of the several churches will take a hand in this matter urging the voters of their church to vote against such men as Aaron Kohn and Whallen. The white and Colored people alike, last August served Aaron Kobn'g candidate under the prosecuting attorney, and the very happv defeat of Kohn himself in December will seem another for theto intereet of the public and city of Louis ville in putting down such men assermon Kohn W have had the word of some of the leading white men of the uty that such men as Kohn who have done so much to cover the dignity of our city, would not receive their support and they would do what they could to defeat them and vote against Aaron Kohn, Jim Whallen, and O law.
