TO RESTRICT THE BALLOT
Gt0RGlA'S GOVERNOR WILL URGE 1T IN
HIS MESSAGE.
He VIII Make ii Clear that the Mass of Ignor-
ant Negro Voters Should be
Eliminated.

Atlanta, Ga, Oct. 19.-In his FORTH
coming message to the Legislature which
meets next week, Governor Gambler will
recommend such an amendment to the
Constitution as will restrict the ballot
to the virtue and intelligence of the
State. The steps taken by sister States
toward restriction of the ballot are re-
ferred to and while there is no sugges-
tom of any particular plan for securing
the desired end, the Governors idea that
the mass of ignorant negro voters should
be eliminated is made clear. He is speci-
1ic I'M his declaration that the distinction
should not be of race or color, or that it
should not be based on a property quad
1fication that would eliminate a mann for
lack of this worlds goods.
Crime and mob violence will be dwelt
on at some length. The Governor points
out the expense of the administration
of the criminal laws in the State show
ing that the cost is more than half a
millions dollars for melting out justice to
the negroes alone. He urges the neces-
Sfty of sustaining this important branch
of the State Government and recon-
1nends that the pay of the officers be re-
duced somewhat and that each private
soldier be paid 81 "a day when in act
ual service. As it is the priyates get
but 43 cents each day.

ate of Both Races.

Statesville, n. G., October 49, Senator
Pritchard spoke here last night in regard
to the proposition to amend the provis-
ion of the State Constitution prescrib-
ing the qualifications for electors Tins
amendment constituted, he sald, the
most important question presented to
the people since the war. The constitu-
ton of 1865, framed by the Republican
party, guaranteed free suffrage to the
rich, the poor and the educated alike.
There had never been a moment since
its adoption, declared the Senator, when
it had not been the intention of the
Democratic party to do all in its power,
should the opportunity present itself to
amend the Constitution so as to restrict
the right of suffrage and If possible pre-
vent the poor and illiterate white people
from exercising that right. The people
were confronted with a proposition to
amend the Constitution which would,
in his Judgment, disfranchise the poor
and illiterate classes of both races.
