XISFRANCHISEMEMT DID MOT PAN OUT. South Not II cm Melted Wuh rromUed If (be AfroAnifrlcan Were Eliminated Governor Glrnn'a Kiiollxh Letter to Maryland Drnio- TiitN Toiu Wiltoi'a Ingratitude. lti'inilar Correspondence of Tub Age. Atlanta, October 30. Governpr fllenn of North Carolina hag written a letter to some Marrlnnd Democrats on the of dinfronchisement in his State.

aforesaid li'tter on its face has only. the aiH'araniM of being: merely the every kind of clap-trap and buncombe re- to by Southern Democrats in at tempt ins to shield themselves and to cheer their own consciences, if such is possible, when discussing their owu violation of the rieht of a black man to vote. Hut this let ier from the governor contains one or two lines which, when once they are closely studied, cause the cloven foot of the whole disgusting business to loom up law and lifelike. the letter of the stereq typed argument of a desire To be rid of alleged purchasable black voters and over looking the assertion that "since the amendment went into effect we have had no trouble," we run upon the following: -The Negro seems to have lost all interest in politics and has gone to work and is becoming a better citizen. Peace reigns sit the polls; there are no disturbances of any kind.

Election day is as quiet as Sunday, and our people are prospering more than they have ever done in the history of the State. There might have been something more said by the Governor, but the above quotations will serve our purpose. Naturally it would bi' inferred by people who live a Ions way off and do not know the facts in the case, that before the passage of the disfranchisement law in North Carolina, now so uhly defended by its Christian 4 inventor, the people of the Tar Heel State were a vagrant class, for that is the unmistakable inference from the quotation of the (iovernor, who observes that since that time the black people "have gone to work." Think of it! It is only since few years ago that the crops were made by white men, the hard labor and the drudgery, and now it is being done by black jienple. Governor Glenn purposely nnd deliberately planned when he wrote those lines to leave the impression that before the passage of the suffrage law the Negro was neglecting his work or else why would he have said that since then the black man has gone to work? Now in all fairness is it true that More the passage of these prescriptive and drastic laws the black eonlo iu North Carolina hail not "gone to Had they not been doing nil along just what they are doing to-day? Is there an honest man who will say they had not? And yet it is impossible to escape the that they had not upon reading the (inventor's letter. It would Ik' a deal more manly just to say tlmt the bw was passed because the white people of th" State wanted it nnd let it go nt than to attempt to defend it by the r.e of arguments nnd innuendos that are the most specious kind.

As a result of his alleged going to work the (Iovernor that the black man "is becoming better eitizen." Everybody, the Afro-Ari'Tteaii most of nil. is glad to hear this: it is not at nil unlikely that the Gov-nT wwiM say in another letter that the AftvAmrics)ns of North Carolina he rnf them for what reason is not rirpar-nt tire not half as good as thev vmi to (w. The Governor further finds "election day is as quiet as Sun-ir-" Very, very true: nnd being so it tiint. th h.ven foot all the more visible ii rmkxl eye. It may be put down as ir, c-deniable fact that all of the dis-frta-iising laws of the South look toward Wing the section forever democratic.

Some have even gone so far utosay. in years past, that if the Afro-Anw-sn were eliminated some of the Swipm States would be found in the Peahen column. But whnt do we find to be the true facts? Ample time has riven in those States which hnve al-wly disfranchised the black voter to show Republican gains, and have they Iom it? Has anvbody heard of any white mm in Alabama.

Mississippi. Louisiana, South Carolina, or even in North Carolina joining the Itepubiican party even in wall timbers? Yet the Afro-Americans have been disfranchised in these States wr years, is worth a white man's life in Rome parts of some of these States 'Pjnly to espouse and work for the Republican party, nnd in all of thera he does with the distressing thought that for doing he and his family will very likely I roomily ostracized. Governor Glenn a.v that flection days are as quiet as Ninday. It is because no white voter tws up to put in a Itepubiican ballot, unwilling to suffer socially for the nnd no Mack voter is allowed. This matter of vntinrr ttii nemnrrn in ticket eiHom fastened on the South.
