Just now a howl is going up about
the new Maryland election law. by
the terms of which illiterates of
whatever color arc disfranchised. It
is charged that it is democratic
plot to recapture the State from the
Republicans aud fearful threats are
made that the next Congress will
certainly enforce the l4th Amend.
ment' aud cut down Marvlands
representation IN consequently
this In spite Of the fact that In
Massachusetts for years and has won
universal commentator for It's
workings. Il Is semi-ofiiciallv an
nOuuced here that the Republican
managers and the Republican Con-
gressional Committee have their eve
on Maryland and are viewing with
'undisguised alarm" what Is going
on there. Chairman Babcock. of the
Republican Congressional Commit.
ee says that Congress must be in
fuenced by the action in MARYLAND
to take action reducing the repre-
sentation of Maryland and all other
States where the negro is eliminated
as a voter. Mr.. Babcock further de.
livers himself of plaintiye lament
over the prospective advantages to
result to the Democratic party from
negro disfranchisement. This is the
whole story. Not a Republican
newspaper and not a Republican
politician any where would give
utterance to one sentiment of protest
or remonstrance tut for the appre.
hension of benefit to the Democratic
party. Possibly the next Congress
may enforce the l4th Amendment
but the chances are decidedly
against IT. as since the subject was
mooted last year 1t has been found
that such enforcement will cut both
ways. If the Southern states should
adopt the system prevailing in Con
nectlcut, for instance, where ten
Republican white voters often out
weigh 500 Democratic ones, there
might indeed be serious cause for
complaint.
