Gratis"

An incident In one of Jchnson's tent
is instructive for It's illustrat on OF the
real meaning Of the term renegade
Democrats" which is SO constantly
used by Tom johnson. II shows the
utter unfairness and bitter injustice
and intolerance of the party bos;. rid
ing roughshod over anybody and
everybody who fails in the least re-
spect in doing whatever he may fancy.
The case is that OF Councilman
Num-, who was elected last spring by
the Democrats. Mr.. johnson lad
stated in a public meeting that the
beautiful display Of flowers upon Mr..
Nunn's desk at a council meeting. IN
recognition of his vote upon a pend
ing matter, was paid for by the Cleve-
land gas lighting company. The next
night johnson was again attacking
Num- in a tent meeting about this
matter, when that gentleman took a
hand in the proceedings. When Num-
faced johnson with the latter's false
charge johnson weakened at once and
sneakingly said that he did not say
! that the gas company paid for the
flowers, but that he thought that they
did. For a bold. bad man, this is a
complete backdown. Num- then push

lutely destitute of any foundation for
his assertion. Num- held up his re-
I ceipt before the audience, challenged
Johnson to permit its production, and
in every way possible tried to get a
hearing for the sake of fair play. But
johnson would give him no chance at
all. In fact, he choked Num- on. his
police officers surrounding that gen.
tleman and giving him to understand
that he must keep still or get out.
This is a good sample of Johnson
ism in operation. Johnson jumped on

as a renegade" and to threaten to
hound him to political death. and all
because Num- and two other Demo

HOW IT WORKS.
JohnSon's Scheme For Deceiv.
ing the Negroes.

The Most Recent Record In This Re-
speet Of Johnson's Party Where IL
Does as u Peases Maryland and
Mississippi a. illustrations.
THE supremacy of the white man
should be maintained" is the declara-
tion of the Democratic state conven-
tion Of Maryland, meeting at Balu-
more, September 16, 1908. Maryland
Is the state whose Democrats do the
bidding of Arthur p. German. the man
ager Of the Democratic party In the
United States senate, and the man
with the best chance now for the next
nomination by the Democracy for pres
ident OF the United States. Tom John
son may knock him out. should Ohio
blunder into boosting Johnson, but
otherwise Germans chances are great
er today than those Of any other Dem
ocrat. Hence the deep political sig
nificance of this action.
This Maryland resolution adds possi-
bic weight to the announcement day
or two before by Edward w. Carmack.
Democratic United States senator
from Tennessee, that he will use his
utmost efforts to repeal the fifteenth
amendment to the federal constitution,
for the purpose Of annulling all the
political rights granted after the war
to the negroes because of their loyalty
to the Union. He wants the colored
voter eliminated everywhere in the
United States. and believes that his
bill will be supported by every repre-
sentative In congress from the solid
south, and by many northern Demo
Gratis also. His dependence is upon
Democrats entirely.
In this connection weight must also
be given TO the recent action of the
Democratic party of Mississippi. Their
state ticket was nominated by a prf-
mary election. Major Vardaman asked
for votes because he favored the repeal
Of the fourteenth and fifteenth amend
ments. and wants negro education linn
ited to the lowest point possible. There
were three candidates at the first poll,
and not enough votes for either to
nominate. although Vardaman led. He
| won on the second trial, because he
grew more abusive against the ne
| groes.
Now comes into this same matter the
! Johnson Democratic machine in Ohio.
with talk of trying to repeat the
scheme Of organizing negro voters for
the Democratic ticket. Miserable fail
ure was the fate of such a game six
years ago. and q worse fizzle should be
expected now. in view of the steady
progress Of negro disfranchisement all
in the states where Democratic power
is supreme
vardaman's Mississippi. in the CEN
sus of 1900. had 349.177 men Of
voting age. all native born but
5.02e. There were 15o53O white
men, but the entire state cast
only 1S.05S votes in all in elect
ing eight congressman. Whether any
Of the black men of that state voted Is
very doubtful. although they number
about 100000. In Ohio the average
vote for members Of congress is 10000
to $4,000 to every member. And that
Is the way that Johnson's party works
where il has the power. and the way
he would work It in Ohio IL he were
given q chance.
