Negro Suffrage In the Southern States

To the objection that negro suffrage implies ne.
gro social equality the Frankfort Commonwealth
promptly responds
Negroes have voted in the South, and yet were in
no sense advanced to an equality with the whites
In every Southern State except South Carolina, the
right Of suffrage was originally exercited by all
freemen." The original constitutions of Delaware
Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina and Georgia
make no mention Of color, or distinction between
white and black, in their provisions as to who may
vote. Till within comparatively few years. negroes
voted in Tennessee. In Maryland they voted un-
til ls33 and in North Carolina as late as 1885,
Now, did this advance them at all in the scale of
equality Were the schools in those States thrown
open to them? Did they visit in gentemens par
lors? Was amalgamation any more common in
those days than it Is now2 We hope noti Was
there, in any sense the equality" Of which the op-
position is now so Extensively talking and with which
they are SO pertinaciously insulting the common
sense and decency Of the people Not a bit of 1t.
In Pennsylvania colored people voted till 1s3s.--
Yet in that State negro has not the same privil-
eges that he has here in Kentucky. In Connecticut
the negro voted till 1917, and yet he had not at
tanned an equality sufficient to preserve for himself
the privilege. In New York the negro if he hos
the requisite property qualifications may vote now,
but he has scarcely advanced one step in the scale
of equality Not even near enough to have the
property restrictions removed in his case, when II
was removed in 1926, as far as il applied to the
white voter

The President and the Children.

large company of Sunday children call
cd upon the President the other day, and showered
him with flowers He made them a speech saying
good many pleasant things, the following among
others
Never feel that you are superior to your more
humble companions and comrades Instead Of try
ing 10 humble them and make their condition lower,
your pride should be TO elevate them to the standard
you occupy. Sometimes one may come in rags, and
begrimmed with dirt but beneath the rags and the
dirt jewel may be found bright as any yet dis
covered, and the humble individual may develop
that which would prove as bright an ornament as
the jewels of any crowned head. All should under
stand this, and that even those who have no means
can al least make an effort TO be good and great
In this matter he (the speaker was an agrarian-
such an agrarian as would elevate and estimate all
in proportion to their virtue and ..s,it Intrinsic
merit should h~ uase upon which oil sL-.iI
stand. He would pull none down, but would ee-
vate al-level upward, not level downward. His
notion had always been that the great mass Of the
American people could be elevated. If all will be
elevated, we may become the greatest and most ex.
alted nation on earth.
My little daughters and sons said the speaker
give me your attention while say, honestly and
truly, that II / could inform you of something and
put that into immediate effect, which would tend to
the elevation of you all, l would be prouder of il
than to bo President forty times. Applause. Here
is the Executive mansion and yonder the Capitol
of great nation, and you look to those who make.
and execute tho laws, persons sublime and grand,
But just think for moment. You are the crop be-
hind us. All those buildings, and all of this Gov
ernmcnt, will, one day pass under your CONTROL and
become your property, and you win have to put in
force and control the principles of government of
religion, and humanity. And let all boys consider
every mothers son Of them laughter] that each
one is born candidate for the Presidency. Laugh
ter and applause.] Why not, then, commence at
to educate yourselves for the Presidency? And
he would say to the little girls that while they could
not be Presidents they born candidates for the
wives Of Presidents Laughter. While each lit
tie boy may feel hes candidate for the Presidency
each little girl may feel she is a candidate for
Presidents wife; and each should commence at once
to qualify himself and herself morally intellectually
and socially for such high positions

Further Details or the Capture OF jeff.
Davis.

Extract Of a letter from Major Geueral WILSON.
MACON Ga, May 10, is65.
You will doubtless have seen my kilograms 10 the
Secretary Of War before this reaches YOU detailing
the events Of the capture. Two OF my best reg-
ments, one from the Let aud the other from the I'd
division were on the trail together and reached the
camp almost simultaneously The fight which en-
sued was unfortunate but unavoidable In the uncer
tain moonlight, Both parties fully expected dos
perate resistance and both had gone prepared.
Col. Harndin, Of the lst Wisconsin, had only so
mem Col. Pritchard had l80 The story of Davis
gnoble attempt at flight is even more ignoble than
told IT, Mrs. Davis and her sister, Miss Howell,
after having clothed himself in the dress of the for
mer, and put on his head womans head.dress,
started out, one holding each arm and besought
Col Prltchards men In most piteons terms, to lot
them take their "poor old mother out Of the way
of the firing
Mrs. Davis said, "0h do let us pass with our poor
old mother who Is so frightened, and fear 10 be
killed" One of Pritchards men, catching sight of
the Presidents boots below the skirts of the dress,
suspected at once, who the poor old woman was,
and replied, "Oh, no; you don't play that game on
u.s. them boots don't look very much like they be-
longed TO woman Come down, old fellow"
The party reached here at p. NJ this afternoon,
took dinner ut my headquarters, and after dinner
received Mr. Davis at my quarters Our converse
ton was mostly about West Point the army, the
surrender of Dick Taylor, the assassination of Mr.
Lincoln, and the journey North. During the con-
versaton he brought in his little son. JEFF, and in
troduced him. He remarked, with
smile, that he thought the United States would find
gravcr charges against him than the murder OF Mr..
Lincoln, and seemed TO regret that Mr. l.. had been
killed. He has asked no favors, but Mrs. ID, insin-
yates, once in while, that the President is not
treated with becoming dignity.
Upon one occasion she said TO Col. Pritchard that
she1had noticed that whenever the president went
out the guard had their guns cooked; whereupon
Col. p. told her the guns were not cocked-only
hali-cocked but his men had orders 10 shoot Mr..
Davis if he made any attempt TO escape, and would
certainly execute the order.
Ameng other things Davis said he thought Lee
one of the boldest generals Of whom he had any
needing urging. This was in
comparison with Johnston, of whom his silence was
marked.

Would to God we had such man Judge of the

sympathy with the laboring, unpretending loyal
masses, but who has permitted himself to be made
vile, subservient tool of traitors. A cats paw Of

been appointed by Governor Brownlow to be Chan
cellor Of the sth Judicial District consisting Of the
counties of SEWER, Bount, Monroe, McMinn, Roane,
Knox and Anderson, Speaker Rodgers has emil
nent qualifications for the position, and more ap-
proprate selection could not have been made. With

doubt not he will make his mark as Chancellor. 1t
is fortunate for Tennessee that she has among her
loyal citizens gentleman SO well suited TO tho post
he is to occupy.-Nashrille Press and Times.
Tho remarks OF the Nashville paper are Just

sented his loyal constituents, instead Of wilfuly

While regretting the loss of the State and Nation
IN his retirement from our Legislature the people of
East Tennessee may congratulate themselves on
