WHEN the Philadelphia Telegraph got
into a ddgety state of political hysteria
and inquired, who is responsible for the
mass Of ignorant and venal negro voters
In DelawareY we answered calmly, show
ing that the Republicans were RESPONSE
BILE. We showed so clearly that the
Republicans were responsible for the
cruelty Of enfranchislng ignorant
ex-slaves who easily became venal
under the manipulations of the worst
element in the Republican party that the
Telegraph became dazed and funny. The
great number Of negro voters were
too old at the time Of emancipation
to 60 to school since enfranchisement
the great number who have had the BEN
efts Of schooling are too young to vote.
That is the situation The Republicans
enfranchised men who have had no
chance to become educated and then
debauched them politically because they
we're ignorant, easy victims. That was too
much for the Telegraph hence it flies the
track and doubts the historical accuracy
Of the EVENING JouRNAL's statements.
That is an easy way to argue, but the
question Of "Who is responsible for the
mass of ignorant and venal negro
voters" is susceptible Of only one answer
the Republicans No sort OF sophistry,
no sort Of evasion can change the answer
to that question.

UNDER the laws Of Delaware, which
fortunately were made by the peoples
representatives and for the peoples bene-
iit, candidates for the privilege Of suf-
frage are required to register, to pay
certain poll-taxes and to offer their GER
tificates at the polls. The man who
viii not comply with these
simple and necessary safeguards
to preserve the purity OF the
ballot is Incompetent 10 exercise the
privilege Of suffrage; the man who defes
those laws is an enemy Of the state. The
man who attempts TO eyade any one
Of these duties by delegatng them to an
attorney" is not sovereign
voter in the eyes Of the law
and is not entitled to vote. II a mans
poll.tax certificate can be procured and
held by an attorney then his vote is
influenced and may be cast by the 'attor-
ney" also 1t is the intention Of the law
to exclude all voters except those who
are honest, sovereign and unpurohasable.
Those who do not honestly comply with
the law are self-excuded. They are
self.confessedly unworthy of exercising
the right Of suffrage by their own
neglect, ignorance or venality.
