is neither excuse nor palliaton for the

of the right to vote, and another and far

often lost sight of in the 6ippant discussion
of this question. Many were suspicious,
and justly so, that the ignorart black vote
would be manipulated by unPrincipled
men for partizan purposes, and for base
and selfish political ends. How far subse-
