Mr. E. E. Willis. of Stuttgart, is a Pine Bluff visitor today.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1898-08-11

The Louisiana Constitutional Con-
vention adjourned recently, after
adopting a remarkable and novel pro
vision regarding the right to vote. The
object in view was to prevent the
negroes from voting.
BY the last census there were 10000
colored male residents of voting age,
1870. 900 white male residents, and $4,000
foreign born voters in the State.
In order to cut off the negro vote the
convention resorted to a curious device.
1t confers the elective franchise on
those whose parents or grand parents
were qualified voters in 1867. The
negroes, owing to the existence Of slav-
cry. were not entitled to vote during
that year. This provision, therefore,
cuts off their rights to the franchise,
unless they can read and write. Few
of them can do so. It places the fran
chise mainly in the hands Of the white
population.
Some of the best lawyers Of the State
believe that the provision is consti-
tutional. On the other hand, it is be-
Heved by many lawyers in other
States, that this provision is in direct
conflict with the Fifteenth Amend
ment to the Constitution, which is tha
the right of citizens "tO vote shall no
be denied or abridged by the United
States or any State, on account of race
color, or previous condition Of servi
tude"
The matter will soon go to the Su
preme Court of the United States, ant
it's decision will be of the creates
value in settling the rights of the col
Ored men.

Hawaiian traditions, habits and
