"a Voice From the black Belt,

MccklenburS county, Va, Dec. -, 1893.
MI. Editor: Thinking that you and
your readers might sometimes like to hear
from parts Of our State where things arc
very different from those in the prosperous
city OF Richmond, and other places where
the white man is not confronted by the
race problem, that is Obliged 10 occupy
much Of our thoughts, 1 send you the
following from the blacklist county Of
the BLACK Distict Of Virginia"
This blacklist county is associated In
the same State senatorial district with a
county which gives anywhere from six
hundred 10 fourteen hundred majority
for what IS usually considered the white
mans party, although it has about as
equally large majority Of colOred citizens
IN proportion TO population, as this "black-
est county has, and more than report
has It, that cOlOred votes are counted only
II Oh the dominant party's side. or rather
all so counted, and yet let the present
political condition of these two counties
be compared. one in the hands Of the
most daring tricksters in the State, and
the other IN the hands Of, comparatively
speaking, honest officers. and it is plain
that the honest policy Of the blacklist
county has redounded 10 its benefit
and promoted peace and goodwill and
STU NDIAuIl utlNctu the TWO, tneSe CO.
existent races. Honesty has here proven
the best policy, even i'm politics, where
50 many enormously think all possible
uniayorable trickery is allowable.
Let the Anderson-McCormick bill be
so amended that two citizens selected by
each Of the contending political parties
shall be present from the time Of the
closing Of the polls until the sealing up
Of the returns. and there will be no fur
thcr threatened trouble from our elections.
and the tricksters that now abound will
find their occupation gone. and all honest
citizens be contented with election re-
suits. The judges and clerks selected
by, IL not from, the dominant political
party. are required to shut themselves
up no one else present, until they make
the ballots agree in number with the
poll lists The admission Of two from
each political party after this is done,
IS equal in folly TO mounting guard over
n treasure after that treasure has been
stolen. and conveyed entirely out OF
reach of its guards our judges are
apt TO be fairer in their selection Of judges
Of the election than electoral boards re-
commended by the county chairman Of
a political party, for, If he chooses, pur-
poses Of fraud. but until the above is
altered. good bye TO all fair elections
except by power OF county chairman.
Respectfully.
