Equality Of Whites and Negraes.

ln Iowa, in submitting the new
constitution, the question OF equality
Of whites and negroes as to political
privileges was submitted 70 the peo-
pie. Nearly the whole vote of the
State was against the assumed equal
ity. After all the pretences of black
republicanism In favor of Negro
equality, nearly the whole party vo-
ted against it. Few men in Iowa
wero found voluntarily to vote them
selves the Equals of negroes. When
brought to the test their negro pro-
tessions we're found TO be mere po-
litieal expedients which honest men
dospise. Black-republicanism is dead
in Iowa. as well as most every where
else, and only needs It's merited
burial to be finally forgotten. unles:

it has brought upon the country.
