Sothern Democrats are ready enough
b have NEGRO domination" and to en-
pley "force bill" methods when they can
be used 10 further their political ends
It will be remembered that the regular
Democrats in Alaban at the recent
election only saved themselves from de-
feat by the large negro vote which they
claimed to have secured in the counties
comprising TIE ''black belt" The Kolb
Of Alliance faction Of the party deuied
that the regulars received any majority
whatever, declaring that the majority
returned was a fraudulent one. They
are now taking steps to prevent repeti-
ton Of the fraud this fall, and a conven-
lion composed Of over 600 Democrats
was held in Birmingham on the 18th
instant for that purpose. Mr.. Bowman,
the leader Of these Kolb Democrats,
said in bis speech to the convention:
"At the coming ele,ii6n for Presi-
dent and Representatives. Congress we
will have some safeguards against cleo
tion outrsges. Under the law Of the
land We are entitled to have United
States supervisors appointed, With as
many deputies as may be needed, to
watch the polls and the count. ! now
ask all delegates here who are willing
to serve as United States election officers
to Iise and be counted 10"
Whereupon the six hundred rose as
one m,n, and Mr.. Biwman dryly re-.
marked: II think now We vii, have a
fair election in November, or know the
reason why"
This is the first time convention Of
Democratic was ever held in Southern
Estate to demand free vote and fair
count, and their action shows that they
appreciate the fact that fair election can
be had Tiers only through she methods
provided in the so-called force bill, viz
