localities where there are Republican
majorities. This suggests relationship
which it may be interesting to trace, and
it is not hard to arrive at the conclusion
that the real animus that prompts these
outrages is a desire to intimidate Afro
American voters. And, moreover, the

The following, from the st. Louis
Globe. Democrat, is specimen of the
curious nonsense concerning the Afro
American which it seems white men in.
dulge in and actually seem to believe:
ut is curious fact" declared P. f. KEYS,
OF Natchez, Miss, at the Lindell, "that a
Negro can't learn to add. By that I
mean that his mind seems utterly devoid
OF that continuity of thought so essential
to the correct addition of column of
figures of any considerable length"
Every sensible man knows that no per-
son Of any race can "learn to add'' a
long column OF figures with swiftness and
accuracy without constant and long-con-
tinued practice. Bookkeepers, who have
this constant practice, learn to do it; but
out Of the 80 million inhabitants of the
United States, probably not one half a
million can do it. Out of the white in
habitants of Mississippi, tits safe to say
that ninety-nine one hundredths cannot
'learn to add" any more readily than
the ordinary Afro. American.

The brainy statesmen of Mississippi
met in Constitutional convention, and
with great unanimity and enthusiasm
made and ratified new, a fearful and
wonderful constitution. Now they are
busily engaged, in their legislative capac-
ity, in tearing it to pieces. The Senate
has passed bill which nulhties the
famous understanding clause" The
bill as passed permits one of the election
commissioners to mark the ticket for any
one who cannot read. AS Mississippi
has great number of persons who can
not read, the bill prevents the disfran-
chisement of thousands Of white men.
