ty. Of course, it is understood that the idiotic, the insane, the feloniously crimi- nal and women are not to be allowed the right to vote. I hope the women will par don me for putting them in this com- pany. It is not my fault.
 Where the Fault Lies.
 The fault Is with our civilization, its narrow-mindedness its prejudice and its sentiment. Our present constitution puts you there and the next will no doubt keep you there. A delegate to the convention who would propose woman suffrage" would be considered a crank or perhaps a fool. He would certainly be fool from the personal political standpoint; but from the standpoint of justice and sound political policy he would be the embodi- ment of virtue and Solomon In wisdom. Why? Because it would be a recognition of honesty, patriotism intelligence and rightful interests regardless of sex These things have no sex; then why should we masculinely sextualiZe their opponents? And it would double the available white vote of the State and would not increase the negro vote per cent. All this could be done by simply leaving out the word male" But I must not dwell upon the hopeless optimism of an impossible Uto- pia. The rightfulness of female honesty, patriotism, intelligence and property ln- terests, ornamented with female virtue and modesty, as part of our electorate, stands no show when it comes up against masculine bigotry, prejudice and selfish ness armored with masculine presumption and prerogative.
 That there are more objections to the regulations of suffrage above suggested admit But the condition we have to meet is desperate No thinking man can be in- sensible to the direful results of the con-

tion of the Alderman was accepted and his seat declared vacant. An effort was started to have nominations for suc- cessor to the Alderman made at the meeting, but no motion to the effect was made.
 The election of the successor, however, will be taken up at the next regular meeting of the board.
 To Abate a Nuisance.
 A ripple of excitement was caused at the meeting of the Board of Aldermen last night by the reading of a petition from a large number of business men, property owners and citizens, asking that the house at 1919 Third avenue be declared a nuisance, and that the police be in structed to have the present occupants removed. 70
 The communication was read by AL derman Thach, who introduced a resolu- tion declaring the place a nuisance. This resolution was referred to the committee on police and sanitation for action.
 This Is the place where Louis Grayely, the nineteen-year-old Virginia soldier boy, shot and killed Isaac Levy last week. It is just off Twentieth street, and the effort to have it declared a nuisance is being strongly supported by many cit izens. The committee will probably take action with reference to the matter at an early date

tinuance of present conditions. The meth cd proposed makes fraud, so far as quail fications of voters are concerned. impos- sible. The voter himself and his tax re- ceipts can demonstrate his qualifications under the first two, and the last two are easily established, and when established the voter can register. The Legislature, of course, would enact appropriate laws to apply the constitutional regulation of suffrage. I am not sure of the amount of poll tax or the amount of property re- quired. Once establish the principle and the details are easy. The poll tax life, perhaps, should be fifty years. There is no sacrifice in these regulations not de- manded by honesty and patriotism.
 These, MT. Editor, are my views. am not committed to them, nor shall l advo- cate them if some one else has better plan want to get the best possible re- suits with the least possible sacrifice and inconvenience. To this end I sha1 faith fully work R. M. CUNNINGHAM.

 Now, let any white man in Alabama try himself by one of these four sub-divis- ions for the regulation of suffrage, and see if he does not come in. There are only two kinds left out, to-wit:
 1. The naturalized foreigner who cannot read and write. If he can he can pay his poll tax and vote.
 9 The illiterate descendants of an an- cestry father, grandfather. great grand father, great, great grandfather, ma- ternal or paternal, who never struck a lick in war for his country
 Does anybody know of such a white man, or is there one who would acknowl- edge it and claim the right to vote? do not know of any such, nor do I know a single naturalized foreign-born citizen who cannot read and write his own ian- guage.
 Now let the colored man try it. .
 The first regulation excludes at least 75 per cent, the second regulation excludes
 
 write feature, and the voluntary poll tax will exclude more than one-half of the remainder, because they will not pay 1t.
 Nowhere in the proposition above Is there a vestige of race, color or previous condition of servitude." On the contrary. 1t opens the door wide to the intelligent negro man, as evidenced by education and property or by education and the voluntary payment of poll tax the latter also an evidence of patriotism" because 1t is a sacrifice of money for the country's good, and is an equal recognition of the honorably- discharged negro soldier.
