ANOTHER FAILURE OF NEGRO
SUFFRAGE.

Since the Secretary OF War. Mr. Root,
declared that NEGRO suffrage is fail
ure'' several Incidents have occurre.s
which go far to confirm this view. The
volumnous testimony taken by the
House Committee on Elections. upon
whose prevarcating report Representa-
tive Butler. OF Missouri, was elected
from his seat In spite Of a majority Of
more than 5000 votes, affords striking
proof of this "faidre,"s at least so far
as the Republican party is concerned.
The Twelfth District of Missouri (part
OF st. LOUIS. which was formerly a.
Republican stronghold. contains from
5000 to 1000 negro voters. These COL
ored citizens up to quite recent years
voted the Republican ticket in mass-so
solidly, in fact. that In 1898 only eighteen
Of them would stand out openly for the
Democratic party But. as appears from
tho evidence before the committee,
great change has taken place In the SEN
timents and political course OF these ne
gro voters This serves Iii large negree
to. account for the changed attitude Of
tho Republican majority In Congress.
and for the growing opinion among the
Republican leaders that the "experl-
ment" Of negro suffrage, as Secretary
Root calls 1t, is a failure, "-Phlladelphla

That Is very well put. Suppose condt-
tons had been reversed In the South.
Suppose ali the negroes had voted In a
body with the Democrats, and suppose
tho Republicans had managed, by one
plan or another. TO keep the negro vote
down. Should we have heard so much
from our northern friends about tho
