satisfied from their experience in the re-
construction period that they are not yet
prepared to take charge of the govern
ment. But they do want the opportunity
of voting for white men in whom they have
confidence, and those men are among the
conservatives. 1t is not negro supremacy
that worries these gentlemen half SO much
as it is the possible downfall of ring su-
premacy.'' 1t is probable that Senator
Butler has been inclined to this view of
the race question because he sees that his
faction needs the assistance of the colored
voter. but such an admission from such
source is gratifying to those who hope
for the future of the colored race.
