NEGROES LEAVING GEORGIA.
TEN THOUSAND OF THEM HAyt.
GONE TO MISSISSIPPI
Matter Is That They Surrender
Their Vote yoIuntnrils.

Atlanta. Ca, January S.-The Wholesale
emigration of negroes from Georgia to
Mississippi develops one OF the strangest
phases Of what is known as the colored
question. Three months ago certain emf
grafton agents began TO canvass ste dif-
ferent counties of Georgia for negro la
borers wanted Tor Mississippi plant Ions,
Among the eanvassers was a lady, who
succeeded in sending over 800 able bcaied
men Cut OF Chattanoocnee county alone.
So effective was her work that tnc piant-
ers OF the county arrested her under The
act OF the legislature by which penalty
OF S500.is Imposed upon emigration agents,
The e1ort at prosecution was rendered
futile by the fidelity OF the negroes TO the
lady, who refused to give the evidence
necessary for conviction.
From Morgan county there has gone
within the last three weeks over $50 ne
groes every one OF whom was a quail fed
voter Other counties have been equally
depopulated ana u cry has gone up from
the white farmers against this interferelcf
with their labor. AS can best be summed
up 1T is probable that at least l0,0du me-
grpes have taken their departure from the
state under the conditions named.
One OF the most interesting develop
1t has given to professional negro p1li-
ticlans. one OF these. Smith w. Easley,
declares: The farmers of Georgia snouid
take hold of this matter and see TO II that
something Is done to check this outrage
upon the colored people of Georgia. Geor-
gia certainly presents as many advantages
10 the colored people OF the state as does
the state OF Mississippi aud In fact more,
because in the State of Mississippi the
rights of the negroes are restricted ana
they have not the same protection of the
courts there which they nave In Georgia,
Il met In the city today one OF the
men on his way to Mississippi, who tells
ME that this movement Is deeper than the
mere fact OF getting laborers for the Miss
issippl Valley. II is to the effect, so the
agent said, to reduce Georga's quota ~
for the benefit Of Mississippi. after The
taking of the census next year. | cal
upon the white people OF our State 10
save my-people from this deception"
The strange phase OF this emigration
movement heretofore alluded TO Is brought
dut In this statement of Easley. great
commotion Is made on behalf OF the right
Of the negro TO vote, as IL he felt that his
deprivation of II was loss. yet here Il
presented the case of Georgia which has
unanimously voted against restricting the
franchise OF the negro, aud In which hi
is encouraged to vote being depleted OF
its negro population which willingly goes
to n State in which ii knows II rRn have
no chance to vote. Thus out of a vote
recently cast in Mississippi OF ~ 900 there
was a, non voting population which should
have run it up to 277,0o0, The fact that
the negro is so careless OF his franchise
that he Willingly deprivcs himself OF g.
is regarded as curious answer TO the
claims OF those who are so anxious 70
preserve II for him.
