The colored voters of Washington County organized a Garfield Club Tuesday night, with the following officers: President, J. H. Bowles; Vice Presidents, John Thompson, William Finley, William Robinson; Secretary, Marshall Johnson; Assistant Secretary, John Thompson; Treasurer, G. W. Harrison; Sergeant-at-Arms, George R. Alexander; Assistant Sergeant-at-Arms, Thomas Brooks; Executive Committee, J. H. Bowles, Thomas King and William Jackson. The Club will meet every other Tuesday night in the room over Buell's drug store. The first meeting started off well. There are about 80 colored voters in the city. They should be solid to a man for Garfield.
