Mormons banished from Tennessee... Speech by Frederick Douglass...

Item # 729443 ·
ST. LOUIS GLOBE-DEMOCRAT, Oct. 15, 1884  Page 2 has a somewhat brief report: "Mormons Banished from Tennessee" noting in part: "...the Mormons who have agreed to renounce their faith have been permitted to remain, & that those who persisted in maintaining their religious opinions were obliged to leave..".
Page 6 has a report beginning: "Fred Douglass made a speech to the colored men of Syracuse...a conclusive argument why that class of voters should stand solidly by the Republican party...at the same time showed why patriotic & just men of every complexion ought to choose such a course..." with a lengthy quote by him which begins: "Go home, colored men, and learn this political catechism. You are under the American flag to-day. Who put you there? The Republican party...".
Also on page 6: "The Murder of the Lowers" and: "Murdered by a Cowboy" among much else.
 Twelve pages, very nice condition.
