Take Advantage OF faVOraDle SITUATIONS.
Not So INSCRIPTIONS as the Southrons.
tsNow that Abe Hewitt has raised
this question about southern politicians
having less brains than the Yankees
said Judge Lee of Georgia, Il want to
tell the truth about this thing with no
Eli Perkins imagination, The fact is, we
southerners have always had brains
enough to control this government.
Think of tive cotton states actually
make a tariff for New England. We con-
troll congress. We are the nation today,
and these mudsill Yankees are sitting
down in the hail."
''How do you get so many congress-
men?' asked Bourke Cochran.
"Why, Abe Hewitt's ignorant Yankees
gave them to us. The Yankees voted
themselves out, and we voted ourselves
in. Why, do you know that little brainy
South Carolina, with 1852, 900 people, has
seven congressman, while Massachusetts,,
with 2,215, 900 people, has only 12?"
'And Mississippi?'
''She's got $4,000 people and seven
congressman, while Pennsylvania, with
5,148,000 people, has only %. In one dis
trict in Georgia 10000 sout hern people,
or 1850 white voters, make a congress-
man, while it always takes III 900 Yam
KEGS, or $4,000 voters, to make con-
gresham. But you've got representa-
ton according to your brains small

"But do the negroes voter asked a
northern congressman.
"Niggers vote! should say not, and
they never will. Your Yankee idiots
made them citizens-made them voters
but do you think we brainy southern
ers will ever count their votes? I should
say not. They vote in Kentucky, Ten.
nessee and the border states, but they
will never vote in South Carolina, Mis-
sissippi or Louisiana, where they are in
the majority. It wouldn't do
''Then the 20 congressman represent.
ing Louisiana, South Carolina and Mis-.
sissippi are fraudulent?'
mo, sab, it's southern brains. We
know how to manage"
"How many votes did Cleveland gel
in South Cardinal"
"Why, he got $4,000, and $4,000 in
Mississippi, and $4,000 in Louisiana, but
they made him president, and those ig
norant northern Yankees let US do it.
Why, you Yankee fools put McKane i1
Sing Sing for disfranchising few citizens
in Brooklyn and make a great row be-
cause Bob Ross was shot at the polls il
Troy while we brainy southern me1
count out $4,000 niggers in Georgia
obliterate 689, 900 in South Carolina ani
annihilate IA, 900 black Yankees in Mis-
sissippi. We actually whip you Yankees
in and make you help us do it! Brains
reckon we have got brains!' q
"What would you old rebs do if w
Yankees should elect president fraudu
lently in three northern states as you
did Cleveland in the south?'
"What! You disfranchise a Demo
GRAFT! You Yankees haven't nerve enough
to do it. You haven't brains enough
to stand by your own disfranchised Re
publicans in the south. If you SHOULD
put in president fraudulently, wee
paint FRAUD on his brow, as Dana paint
