The above exhibit shows according to
above statement that even W hen tho con-
suy was taken there was an excess of
Blacks and Mulattocs over Whites Of g.
Jas, that there was an excess of whte
males over females Of 1897 ,that-tho excess
of BLACK aud mulatto females over black
and myulatto males was 6,64s, and that the
excess Of white males over black and
mulatto males was A,247. and that the
number of wIitc males under II gears OK.
ceeded tho number Of black and mulatto
males under 81 years, 1904. This shows
plainly that th'ore was q majority Of
whites in Louisiana at,the timo tho CEN
sns was taken. This fact, added to tho
fact that at the timo census was
taken there was ut the lowest
calculation five Thousand voters
ont Of tho State giving tho control Of
State to the whites beyond n question, by
"a handsome majority. It has been four
years since this census was taken and We
had majority Of minors which increases
our vote. Tho immigration Of whites into
country parishes has largely exceeded the
immigration tho deaths Of negroes rate
in country parishes at least four to one
white, all in all, tho white voters must
have increased over the negro So all We
want for success is unity. We cannot OK

tho largo majority of whites believe our

slt has been said by some who have fail

that it will ininre our lobor: to them let

cannot utilise labor to his benefit, it is
better the present system should be broken
