WOOD CENSURED BY
BROOKLYN DEMOCRATS

Regular Colored Democratic As-
sociation of Kings County
Adopts Resolutions Protesting
Against Discharge of Lang-
ston and Robinson.

A resolution consuring Robert N.
Wood, leader of the United Colored
Democracy of New York, for securing
the dismissal of Ralph E. Langston and
Andrew M. Robinson was adopted at
the regular meeting of the Regular Col-
ored Democratic Association of Kings
County, held Tuesday evening at the
organization's club rooms, 417 Carlton
avenue, Brooklyn.

Two thirds of the enrolled colored
Democrats of Kings County were pres-
ent. Many who made speeches declared
that Wood was injuring the Democratic
Party by playing petty politics.

The resolution:

WHEREAS, it has been called to
the attention of this Association
that two sterling Democrats in the
person of Ralph E. Langston and
Andrew M. Robinson, former Dep-
uty State Superintendents of Elec-
tions, were removed from their po-
sitions because of the loyalty to our
National Leader Bishop Walters,
and because of the interest they took
in the organization of the Wilson
Colored Democratic Club of New
York, to support the candidacy of
Hon. Woodrow Wilson, for Presi-
dent of the United States, this in-
curring the displeasure of Robert
N. Wood of the Manhattan col-
ored organtration: and

WHEREAS, The methods adopt-
ed to secure the removal of Mr.
Langston and Mr. Robinson were
unfair and undemocratic and the
representation made to enforce their
removal, to wit: that they failed to
give or contribute to the Democratic
organization was false and untrue.

BE IT RESOLVED. That this As-
sociation registers its protest against
the removal of Messrs. Langston and
Robinson and deplores the fact that
the Democrats of Manhattan sus-
tain a leadership so barren of the es-
sential elements to lead as was
demonstrated in the last election.

RESOLVED. That Bishop Wal-
ters be requested to place Messrs.
Langston and Robinson in such po-
sitions within his gift as their tal-
ents merit, and that a copy of these
resolutions be forwarded to the Hon.
Charles F. Marphy.

Wesley L. Young, who is the colored
Democratic leader in Kings County, and
who is a deputy in the office of the State
Superintendent of Elections, was among
those who favored the adoption of the
resolution. Not only are the colored
Democrats of Brooklyn aroused over
the dismissal of Langston and Robin-
son, but in New York the colored Tam-
manyites and Wilson men do not hesi-
tate to criticize Wood's actions. A
lively political war is threatened.

RALPH E. LANGSTON.

It is a strange thing when we
come to consider the alliance of
colored men to the Democratic
party, and strange as it is, it is a
fact. The subject of this editorial
is Mr. Ralph E. Langston,
who has been associated with the
Democratic party of the State of
New York; a young man of ability
and influence among his people.
He is respected by the most influ-
ential and prominent white Demo-
crats in the State of New York, and
highly commended by those under
whom he has served in the many of-
ficial positions in his State. It is
said that every position he has held
in the city of New York has been
conducted in a highly commend-
ble manner; so much so that the so-
called leader of the colored Democ-
racy, Robert N. Wood, became en-
vious and jealous of his power
among the Negro Democracy in the
State. For many years Mr. Lang-
ston, although a citizen and prop-
erty owner in this city, has affiliated
and worked with the Democracy of
his State. He was far-sighted
enough to be the first Negro in the
city of New York to organize
Wilson and Marshall Democrat-
ic Club. This was the cause of
Robert N. Wood to misrepresent
him to the Tammany chief, Mr.
Murphy for whom Mr. Langston
