FOR THE AMENDMENT.

The better class of Republicans and

amendment This is more noticeable of
late among Republicans than Populists.
The reason is that nearly all the Popu-
lists who believe in White Supremacy
voted that ticket in 1898, and still ''abide
in the ship" Those who did not vote
for White Supremacy in 1898 are of two
classes /. Those who did not understand
the issue: 2 Those that want office and
know their only chance to get it is
through the solid negro vote. The first
class, when they fully understand the
amendment-and they are learning fast
will follow such men as Green and Boggs
scented by the men at the pie counter, are
already Black Republicans in everything
except name, and will of course vote
as Pritchard and George White tell
them to vote.

showing independence. This week S
