this question about southern politicians
having less brains than tho Yankees"
said Judge Leo. oil Georgia, 81 want TO
tell tho truth about this thing with no
Observation-Disclosures. Tho fact Is, wo
Houthcrnors have always had brains
enough to control this government.
Think OF 1.-Two coston states actually

mon ?" asked DOurko Cochran.
why, Abe liewitt'signornnt Yankees
gave themselves up. Tho Yankees
voted themselves out, and We voted
ourselves In. Why, do you know that
little. brainy South Carolina, with 49,.
OoO people, has seven congressman,
wliio Massachusetts, with 2,2l5,O00
poop!c, has only twolvo?"
And Mississippi"
shes got $4,000 people and sovcn
congrcsanen, while Pennsylvania, with
o,,lfs,OOO people, has only %. In ono
district in Georgia $4,000 southern peo-
pic, or $500 white voters, make a con.
gresham, while it always takes Ill 900

small brains, small representation f"
but DO tho negroes vote2' askcd

"Niggers vote. should say not, and
they never will. Your Yankee idiots

should say not. They vote In Kentucky,
Tennessee and the border states, but
they will never vote in South Carolina,
Mississippi or Louisiana, where they
are IN tho majority. II wouldn't do.
Then the twenty. congressman rcp-
resenting Louisiana, South Carolina
and Mississippi arc fraudulent"
mo, sab. it's southern brains. We
know how to manage" -.
How many votes did Cleveland got
in South Carolina?'
why, no got 5000, and $1,000 in
Mississippi, and 5000 in Louisiana. Blu.
they made him President, and those
Ignorant northern Yankees let US do it.
Why, you Yankee fools put .McKano in
Sing Sing for DISTINGUISHING few citl.
Zens in Brooklyn and make Il great row
because Bob Ross was shot at tho polls
in Troy, while we brainy southern men
count out 85S,000 niggers in Georgia,
obliterate GS9,O60 in South Carolina and
annihilate 744.0O0 black Yankees in
Mississippi. We actually whip you
Yankees III and make you help Us do
it! Brains! I reckon We have got

"What would you old rebs do il wo
Yankees should elect President fraud.
ulently in three northern states as you
did Cleveland in tho south?"
"Whasl You disfranchise Demo.
crat! You Yankees haven't nerve
enough to do it. You haven't brains
enough to stand by your own disfran-
chiaed Republicans in tho south. Ii
you should put in President fraudu.
len,ly, we'd paint fraud on his brow, aa
Dana painted it on Hayes, who was
really the last President honestly elect
ed in the niger states. But you Yam
KEGS are afraid to do it. We old rebs
would have some respect for you il you
had nerve enough 10 write fraud on
Cleveland.
"But you're afraid TO do it. That's
why the brainy men OF the south run
this government, and you can carry the
news to old Abe Hewitt"
