REpEAL TIE FIFTEENTH.

For seven or eight years The Times has
been steadily arguing that all Of the
srnubles I'm the South came from negro
suffrage. that 10 was a crime to confer
the suffrage upon the negroes en- bloc
and that the only solution Of the difficulty
is in taking away from them that sur
frage that ought never 10 have been given
them. The country at large seems 20 he
now waking up 30 the necessity OF this
ana It Is by no means certain that
movement will not yet be set on foot That
will sweep the country o. disfranchise
the negroes, leaving 70 each State the
right to confer tho suffrage upon individ-
ual negroes as they show capacity 10 eX-
orcise it lntslngently and discreetly.
II Is not necessary 20 reDeal the Four
teenth amendment. for that amendment
is not concerned with suffrage. IL is the
Fifteenth only that deals with the suf-
frage That amendment provides that
the right 10 vote shall not re abridged on
account Of race, color or previous condi-
lions Of sevitude All that IS necessary
l. % repeal this and then each state can
impose such conditions upon the fisht 81
vote as that State may think important.
The first clause Of the Fourteenth
amendment IS one Of the wscst. most
beneficial and greatest pieces Of legisla-
ton that ever came from the hands OF
man. II defines citizenship of the Uniiel
States forblds any State TO abndga the
privilege or immunities Of such citizens.
and mrbids any state to deprive any per-
son 81 life. liberty OF property without
due process of law. or deny TO any person
the equal projections Of the laws. We
viii never consent TO giving this great
amendment Up. There are some other
provisions Of the Fourteenth amendment
which We think could wisely he mo iincd
or abandoned, bat this first clause is to
remain forever.
