THE Republicans and those who
wish 10 defeat the constitutional
convention question are saying
that the prime object Of the con
ventiOn is to diSfranchise illiterate
voters. T. csc same parties tell
You we have fraudulent election
laws and ut the same time ap-
plaud the election laws of the
Northern States where they have
lad honest elections. Suppose now
the illltcrate voters of Virgiaia
were DISTINGUISHED would not such
a law correspond TO the law in
some OF those States which South
ern Republicans brag on being
so hOneSt9 Take the state of
Massachusetts,, for instance, where
wheE q man goes to the registrar
to register, the constitution Of the
State is laid before him, and he ~
requested 10 write some part of
said constitution. On failure to
do so he ia politely informed by
the registrar that he cannot regis
tar. Now, if the Republicans en-
dOrse such a law in q Northern
State why should they not en-
dOrSe it in Virginia, especially
when they claim that the Demo.
Gratis get the full negro vote.
The only reason they do not desire
a constitutional convention is he.
causethey know that the Demo
Gratis will control such convention
if held and they also know that
the benefits derived from such con
ventiOn will rebound to the bene.
fit of the party that controls such
convention.

Has somebody been rejected in

that tits fraternity secret. 1t is
not fair either to the applicant or the
order for you to mention it outside
1t will neither do any good to COS
sip about it in public, bat it may do
a great deal of harm. Perhaps the
vote was taken by means OF a secret
ballot. Many of the boxes for this
purpose are so constructed that the
desired privacy is not accorded to
the voter if his near neighbor takes
the pains to watch. Nevertheless.
every member has a right to vote as
be considers best and proper, and
any espionage Is not only imperti-
nent but a subveFsal of that right
That the applicant was friend of
yours, perhaps proposed by you,
does not confer upon you the priv
lege of knowing what your neighbor
thinks of his fitness to join the s.
clety unless your nOighbor sees fit
to volunteer the information. AS for
