Gleason, Tennessee
The Republican committee met . . . and ordered that all the Republicans of the county take part in this election, provided that all legalised voters be allowed to vote. The original order made by the Democrats was that only white people be allowed to vote, and although there are many negro land-owners and taxpayers, they are prohibited from voting in the election, but all whte Republicans were cordially invited to vote.
The Republicans refuse to vote unless the negro is allowed a vote, and the final outcome of the matter is unforeseen.
