ATLANTA, Ga. June 15.-The
Supreme Court Of Georgia, to-day.
rendered a decision that the negro is
eligible TO office, Judges Brown and
Mccoy in favor, and Judge Warner
dissenting. Judge Mccoy held that
the State was without a civil Govern
ment before the Convention that
made the present Constitution; that
the blacks and whites participated in
getting up th Convention and franz
ing the Constitution, and il was
against its spirit to exclude the blacks
or whites from the privileges unless
expressly prohibited.
Judge Brown claimed that the
Fourteenth Amendment forbi1s any
body being deprived of its privileges.
and as the code gives citizens the
right to hold Office and the C0nstitu-
tIon makes him citizen and does not
forbid him to hold office, ii was not
the intention of the iawto break the
Fourteenth Amendment and deprive
the negro OF his right
Judge Warner held that the negro
was a new political creature in the
7 body polihc that he mnsthold Office
/ by special enactmenta that the code
which defines the powers of citizens
was enacted before the negro became
a citizen, and therefore it did not ap-
plysto him; that he did not have the
right TO hold Office under the common
law nor BY statute, since he was made
a citizen, but the Convention voted
down the proposition to make hin
eligible to the Office, and until he was
especially authorized 10 hold Office
/ he was ineligible.
