of his electoral-coilcge plank. 1t was alaw
Of Divine ordination, ne said. that the white
race cannot tolerate divided sovereignty.
Let the truth be told if it burst the bottom
Of the universe. The speaker did not share
tie apprehension Of those who thought that
one change Of the constitution would have
the effect OF depriyng great numbers of
negroes of the right to vote, would involve
the state in conflict with Congress. We
can stand il If allowed 10 manage our local
and state affairs undi-turbed. The speaker
then made an elaborate constitutional
argument to prove the plan he fav-
ored was Republican in form. (Ihe
plan divides the state into thirteen
election districts eight Of which will have
whiielmajorities.) Judge Morris of Wayne.
and Delegates Gore Of Webster, Coffee of
Jefferson, and McGhec Of Franklin, also
addressed the convention.
