The Appointment of Editor Adsmi as Assistant

Tho announcement on Fridav, Janu

of tho Chicago Appeal, and roooutl.v
elected South Town- clerk of Cook
county, Illinois, a iidVition said to pay
$4,000 pet annum, w'nsn big surprise
ovou to tho knowing ono. Tho ikjII
tiolaua nro iu n qunnpnry to know how
it oamu about. Tho' Inter-Ocean had
tho following Item ituont Mr. Adams
just nfter the last election:
"Among tho nowapnper inon nf tlio
raco Cyrus Flold Adams, of this city,
distiuguiahod liiinso)f in a rumarkablu
degree Adams una appointed a mem
ber of tho ltopiililicnn national advisory

AilUnt IU sjlsli'r of tlio Treasury.
commltteo to control and keep in lie
puhllca'n Hues thu tevoral hundred
colorod newspapers puhllshod by and
for tho colored pooplo. Thu tondonuy
of some oditora unit hifhop to show n
spirit ot hostile opposition to 'tho party
of freudom' miido it necessary that
soiiio apodal ollort bo made to chuck
these 'evil tondoiiolo!.'
"Adams, who, with hia brother,
conducts a nowspapor publi'-atlou for
tho colored peoplo, and who ia also
president of thu National A fro-America
n Cross Association, waa peculiarly
suited to this work. Under Ills dlreo
tioti ahecta of bright, short editorial
paragraphia nnd strong loadors woro
preparod and hont to tho colored press.
Nearly every Afro-American paper in
tho country mod aomo of tho imtttor.
"It waa thu first time in any cam
paigu that any real nowapnper educa
tion was attempted exclusively among
thu colored peoplo aa a ulass, aud that
this aortot campaigning was considered
an interesting recognition ot tlm grow
lug intelligence ot the colored voters.
The curious search for interesting
facta concerulug tho development ot
the Nogro aa a oitlcuu ami voter
brought out a great doal that is now
and sigiiiflcaut. How groat ia the
number of colored men employed in all
DMiienca oi tlio govurumout as diplo
mats, ofTkors)lu tho army, chiefs of
bureaus ami departments at tho capital,
and iu tho federal servico all over tho
country, may ho understood when it ia
shown hy statistics that $!I8,000,()00
is paid out annually to colored olllco
holders. .
"In addition tn tho newspaper iull
ucuro, thousands ot loiters were ad-
dtossud looilored people in all walks
of life aud iu every part of thu country.
llio answers received form a curious
and mousing assortment of all kinds of
wants and needs, demanded in ex
change for InlluDUco. Homo wanted
mouey iu fabulous sums and others
any old thing from a suit of clothes to
a now llililo. One good brother sent a
number of punch curds roprosontlug
$200, with the ropiest that Adams
punch and remit. Most of tho roplios,
however, showod a stroug aeuso of
patriotic aud party loyalty."
