RADICAL INsINCERITY.

After the adjournment of the Legis-
lature in March 1899, the Republicans
professed great uneasiness for fear
that the Supreme court might decloe
the fifth section of the proposed Con-
stitutional Amendment unconstitu-
tional. and leave us only an educa-
tional qualification under which the
illiterate white voter would be disfran-
chised. All the best lawyers of the
land were confident that such could
not be the case, but that the Amend
ment being altogether one plan of SUI
frage. the sections composing it would
stand or fall together At the adj
iourned session in June the Demo-
cratic members of the Legislature, in
order that there might be no excuse
bv which any white man could justify
himself in refusing to support the
Amendment. consolidated The fourth
and fifth sections and provided that
the whole amendment, and all us
parts, Should stand or fall together.
The Republicans who have been so
solicitious of the rights of the Hitter
ate white man were then offered an
opportunity of making the Amend
ment exactly what they said it ought
to have been made at the first session.
But behold! when they were given an
opportunity of making it so absolute
" certain that the courts could not
by construction leave the educational
qualification standing alone, the last
mothers son of them voted against
the proposition.
This is but one illustration of the
insincerity of their opposition to the
Amendment. Three months ago If
anv one had believed their statements
in opposition to the Amendment he
would have thought that all they
wanted was an opportunity to put it
beyond doubt that the whole Amend
ment must stand or fall together. But
when the Democratic Legislature gave
them the chance to show the faith
was in them, they demonstrated that
il is not the illiterate white man that
they care for. but the horde of negro
voters upon whom they now are, and
have always been. dependent for Of
