Democrat, will strike the average reader as being
decidedly rich: The Republican party of the
North would rather see every negro in the South
freely and openly vote the Democratic ticket
than to see one negro, who desired to vote the
Republican ticket, deprived of that right either
by bulldozihg or fraud" The Savannah Ne,os
thinks THAT is the proper thing to say, of
course, but-well, come off! You know per-
fectly well that the Republican party wants the
negro DISTINGUISHED if they don't vote the Repub-
cau ticket. Thinks they are here to vote that
ticket" But they are not doing it this year as
they used 10, and they are not going to vote that
ticket ia November TO the extent Republicans
would have the country believe they are The
col pred people rapidly learning TO vote as
they please.
