extend to II that freedom OF commerce
and intercourse with Foreigners which
now applies only TO those opcu ports

Feb. 49, Senator Tillman spoke as
follows, according to the congressional
record:
L am only standing here to adver-
tise the fact that the state Of South
Carolina has G:5fsranchised all the
Afro-American race that it could nm
der the thirteenth, fourteenth and fif-
teenth amendments. We have done
our level best We have scratched
our heads to find out how we could
eliminate the last one of them, and
we would have done it if we could,
but we could not under the thirteenth.
fourteenth and fifteenth amendments.
On that same date the senator from
South Carolina remarked:
"Yet you have stood up here and in
sisted that we must give these people
a free vote and a fair count, Thew
had it for eight years, as long as bay
onets stood there, and in 1876 they
sent more bayonets. because we had
got the devil into us by that time and
we did not care whether we had any
government" .-~. 49,

1t was this report that exasperated
the GreenTurtle Club to the pitch of
offering $1,000 for beautiful white
girls mead and entering the resolu-
ZION in the minutes.
The wOuld-be author OF new Uncle
Toms Cabin" has further outraged
the susceptibilities Of the South by
styling herself the white Negress. -
On her part it is merely an extrava-
CANT expression of her self-dedication
to the cause Of the Afro-American, but
a SOutherner is incapable of under
standing how a white woman could
so designate herself and yet be worthy
of white mans respect.
In spite of her opinions and utter
ances no Southerner could fail to ex-
ercise the chivalry Of his race toward
Miss JeWett if he could meet her. She
is blonde, tall and slender, with
large blue eyes, an aquiline nose, lofty
forehead and an expression of great
earnestness.
Regarding the league which bears
her name Miss Jewett says:
THE league movement is flourish
ing all over the South Right in New
Orleans and the very heart of the city
we have our society, with a member
ship so large that.I- scarce dare tell
you it's strength. I received a letter
to-day from the president of an Afro
American organization there asking
me to admit them as a body under our
banner. Another man begs me to help
him to get North, saying that hell was
better for the Afro-American at pres
ent than New Orleans.
The Appeal. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn. ;) 1889-19??, 1900-08-25

Again Senator Tillman saws:
We had it demonstrated in the
south for two years, as long as the
tTeedman's bureau ran, that if you
will feed Negroes free they will not
work"
March %, Senator Tillman starts in
to recapitulate "the conditions which
brought about. the necessity for. stuff
fng ballot boxes, for shooting Negroes
and fer using violence and fraud in
taking charge Of our state government
in South Carolina" He concluded by
saying:
I'VE swore by memories of the revo-
lutlonary sires that we would redeem
our state from the grasp of aliens and
Negroes, and we did it; and I have
no apologies for it. %
Accompanying the Tillman pamphlet
is one containing a speech of Charles
H. Grosvenor which is most friendly
to the Negroes, and also the following

The Afro-American vote will be a
source Of trouble to Tammany Hall in
New York. Since the election of
Mayor Van Wyck, Croker has depend
ed upon Edward 3. Lee of the Plaza
Hotel force to split the citys Afro
American vote, which is about 10000
and was at one time mostly Republic
can. Lee was a Republican in 1896,
but became a Democrat and started
the United Colored Democracy. In
1897 it did hard work for Van Wyck.
The club boasts clubhouse and s75,-
900 worth of patronage in the shape of
city positions by the grace of Tam
many. -. - IN. .. =: -: -.~r-.-.s- 3. . .
Since the race riots last week there
has been a feeling against Tammany
officials. Investigation proved that
every Afro-American who was injured
during the two nights of trouble had
been dubbed by the police and had
not been harmed by the moh..zso the
Afro-Americans assert. -
The AfroAmericans since the riot
are becoming Republicans so rapidly
that the United Colored Democracy
was compelled to take action. Ralph
E. Langston, Charles Johnston, and
Charles E. Brown. and Lee, repre-
senting the Afro-American Democra-
cy, called upon the Mayor Wednes-
day and pointed out many instances
of alleged police brutality.
Acting Mayor Guggenheimer gave
the committee little satisfaction. He
said he would ask Mayor Van Wyck
on his return to make an inquiry, and
in the meantime he would ask the Po-
lice Commission to investigate. The
committee left somewhat disappoint-
ed.
