voters in that state. The Journal says:

most eventful campaigns in her history. 1t lisa
death struggle between the Anglo-Saxon and

have cleared the state, the political and social
supremacy OF the white man Of North Carolina

soute and unconditional, or else negro domina-
tion will again immerse the state into ignominy
and disgrace,
This campaign is waged on o proposed suf-
frage amendment TO the constitution, submitted
| 10 the people by the last Legislature twas de-
signed for the single purpose OF eliminating the
negro as political factor, and 1t is notable
| fact that the educational qualification enjoincd
