As to the Amendment.
Progressive Farmer.)


The South has not produced Jackson,
a Jefferson, or a Calhoun since recon-
struction days. They could not grow in
our political atmosphere at this time
They discussed issues; they appealed to
a people whose judgment and intellect
were not kept in subsection by the pres
ence of race problem The enfran-
chisement of a race just emerged from
slavery has made political slaves of many
of their former masters. Many good peo-
pie believe the amendment will by making
the States ratio of voting population 8
whites to l negro, render negro rule i'm
possible in any county, remove the negro
from politics, give greater liberty to
our people and benefit whites and blacks
alike. To charge that they are actuated
only by desire for office or by undemo-
cratic ideas is as futile as it is unjust.
The charge that the educational quail
ifcation means an arstocracy does not
seem to be better grounded. But if it be
an aristocracy, then it is one that prac-
tically all white white boys of ordinary
intelligence and industry can enter|a
fact that ought to stimulate interest in
our schools and elevate our citizenship.
Nor do we believe that there is danger
of the elimination of the grandfather
clause, leaving in force an educational test
for whites and blacks alike.
