DISFRANCHISE THOUSANDS

How South Carolina CoIOred Men Have
Been Deprived OF Their Votes.
CHARLESTON, S. c., Sept 2O.-Grave
trouble is likely to be stirred up here by
vote the negroes against the Tillmanites
this fall South Carolina has peculiar
registration laws. When adopted some
ten or more years ago the law required
that all citizens Of the state over p
years Of age should register by and be-
fore certain date; that they should re-
celve registration certificates, which
should be shown to the managers of
elections whenever vote was polled-
Under these laws citizens who did not
register by the named date in the law
could not register afterwards and are
disfranchised.
The law was passed to eliminate the
negro It has largely had that effect,
but at the same time it has eliminated
many white men from the exer-
are ways to get around this
law, but they are complicated. Many
negroes who registered have lost their
registration certificates.
These can be renewed by proof that
they were lost, but it is roundabout
process and it is hard for negro to get
the proper proof if il is desired that he
should not do so. Again, al sorts of
tricks have been resorted to deprive ne
grOes of their registration certificates.
Among others, an agreement was made
with a circus which travelled through the
state several yenrs ago, by which the cir
Gus was to accept registration tickets of
negroes for so many tickets to a per
Torrance and in many cases tho negroes
preferred to give up their registration
tickets rather than pay over the money.
OF course the circus received the cash
from the campaign managers for these
registration tickets. In this way several
thousand were secured and that many
negroes were forever DISTINGUISHED
