Some two weeks ago in a public speech
/ stated that whilst / was standing in
1898 for the union OF the white people and
white supr emacy, my honorable competl-
tor was advocating the voting OF the
black man In democratic primaries" He
did not deny this. but challenged me TO
point out the EDITORIAL I always en-
deevorer to be fair and just. and l will
comply with the request of Governor
jerks.
1t will be remembers cd that the Jeffer-
sorian state committee made PROPOSE
ton to the democratic state committee
to have a Write primary to determine
who should hold office in Alabama, and
In May of that year Governor jerks, then
editing the Eufaula Times, used this
language in an editorial as expressing his
sentiments on this proposition:
"a good coIored democrat ought to
have a hearing and will have one.
That part of the Jeffersonlan paper
that shuts the coIored man out en-
tirely will be opposeo, of course.
I'VE cant sfford to exclude any demo-
crat from a caucus. The Times will not
give consent to turn In the republicans
or exclude coiored democrats from par
ticipation and that much may be depend
ed on"
So 1t seems that I fell short of the
truth for my distinguished competitor
not only expressed a desire to have the
colored mar participate in democratic
primaries. but In csucuses, where only
the elect and select are admitted.
