It is not alone in the Legislature
that the white people of the south
eastern counties are so badly swim
died, but in the Democratic State
Conventions. Ihe several counties
are allowed two delegates IN the
convention for each member of the
legislature, and the consequence is
that few black counties, with large
Republican majorities, over power
the white Democrats Of the south
east, and control the nominations
for state officers Representation
in Democratic conventions should
be according to the number of Dem
ocratic votes polled at the previous
election. That would give the in
telligent white counties Il fair show

for their share of the schools sup

negro counties that control the con
