great leaders of American journalism
Tburlow Weed. Henry ]. Raymond and
Horace Greeley.
Weed was Il great editor and con

policy and the organization of his party
for thirty years in the State of New
York. There was not n trick or device,
not Il method or plan by which control
could he had of the party machinery
or success had for the party at the
polls which was net always at the COM
mand OF this extraordinary man. He
had double nature. On the one side
practical politician who believed all
things fair for success. and ON the other
side. a man with u very high ideal of
craftsmanship and an uncommon anxiety
TO have New York represented by that
ideal in the Government at Washington

In this discussion / shall assume that
the proposed amendment Is not lin con,
fliet with the Constitution of the United
States. 1t is similar to the provisions
of the Constitution of Louisiana, which
has been passed upon and pronounced
constitutional by some of the ablest law
yerS in the United States. 1T was passed
by Legislature composed of many of
the ahlest lawyers of this State. The
American SYSTEM of government leaves
the question of suffrage very largely
with the State. and the Supreme courr
of the United States has recently affirm
cd and upheld this doctTiDa in passing
upon the new constitution of Mississippi
which contained provisions restricting
and regulating suffrage. So notwith-
standing the condemnation Of the
amendment by 4 few Republican lights,
vino have been dragged from obscurity
by the negro vote, l shall assume the
amendment to be constitutional. ard that
it is within the province of the people
Of North Carolina to ratify and make 1t
a part Of their constitution if they see
proper to do so.T. J. Jarvis.
