SECRET ANALYZED OUT.


An analysis of these figures shows that
the increase in number OF illiterste
white males has been less great in South
Carolina. Virginia and Georgia, In the
order named And that the increase has
been greatest of all in Texas.
It is confidently stated that the in-
crease is due to the rapid growth in pop
ulation. The South has received a greaser
influx of settlers in the last thirty years
than ever was dreamed of before. But
TO the honor of the public schools can if
be said that the percentage OF iliiterates
has steadily increased from year to yeae
until now it Is at an average of about s..
The schools of the South are inl-
nseasureably better to-day than ever be-
fore, as the reports of all the departments
of public Instruction show. OF course,
the better class Of the white people OF tha
South have always been educated, and it
is only the mountainous and reonte sec.
tons that had not until late years been
reached.

= Never before in the history OF the South
has the literacy or illiteracy OF the male
whites of the South been the object of so
much attention Many of the States have
recently formed new constitutions With
tho admitted purpose of getting rid of the
vote of the negro. To tlo this, the conssf-
tutions almost without exception contain
an educational qualification.
No secret has been made OF the fac.
that this clause had the purpose to serve
OF keeping out the illiterate negro voto
and thus eliminating from the right OF
franchise many of that race. This cir-
cumstance has brought to the attention.
OF every thinking man the question: How
many white voters would thus he affect
ed2 And out of this grows the other and
still more interesting. and the broadsr
question: Is illiteracy increasing or de-
creasing in the South?
\ TRICK OF FIGURES.
All would expect the answer that tins
ratio of the iIiterate is much smaller
than it was thirty years ago. and that
it is steadily decreasing. And that is
true. But at first sight IS would not ap-
pear so. See these figures which show
the number of adult white males in the
States given who could not read and
write at the taking of the census of 1si0,
and 1860: q
