BETTER THAN THE BLAIR
BILL.
Especial to the World J

Especial to The World
Chattanooga, May 18th. The
Republicans of Tennessee de-
serve credit for political ingenuity
if nothing else. A year ago the
Dertch law, which is practically
the Australian system, was put
into effect just prior to the Spring
elections. More than half the
blacks of the State were disfran-
chised. In this city alone did they
vote. A white voter went into
the booth, secured a ticket and
voted a white piece of paper.
Bringing out the ticket it was
properly marked and given to
a Negro, who passed into the
booth, voted the marked ticket
and brought out a virgin one.
The scheme worked aud the Re-
publicans ca ried the election.
The law was amended last Winter
killing that scheme. Now the
Republicans have organized a
State system of night schools, 10
which nothing but reading is
