GEORGE d. DENT.

The States south ofMaryland have
passed laws that virtually eliminate
the negro vote. If stringent regis
tration laws are not in force here.
this State would be dumping
ground for negroes who cannot vote
in Virginia, North and South Caro-
lima. The Democrats have enacted
laws to prevent this. If the Repub-
licans win, will they not repeal these
laws? And would not the repeal
be disastrous to the bestinterests Of
the Slater Better bear the ills we
have than fly to others that we
known not Of.
