Appeal to Colored Men Promotes Government Rail Ownership
A circular from the Colored Men's Independent League urges black voters to back the Populist program advocating government ownership of railroads. It argues ownership would enable promotions for hundreds of colored porters and others, and frames reform as a race advancement issue beyond the outdated slavery conflict. The call criticizes the modern Republican party as catering to corporations and urges voters to study party principles for an informed, intelligent vote.
