In the South they restrict the ballot
in the hands of the ignorant negro, but
give him full permission and opportunity
to work. In the North he is encouraged
to vote, early and often; but all manner
of work up there is done by Union
labor, and the door of Labor Union IS
shut in the negro's face. That is the
difference in the treatment of the negro,
North and South. Some political
domagogue occasionally invites him to
a meal but he never sees inside Labor
Union.

1t does not stand to reason that the
gam blers all got good and quit just
az soon as Johnny Slick went out OF
Office. 1t is passing, strange, there
fore, that all raids and arrests stopped
at that time. The retort that II the
Herald will locate the games they
will be raided, is as puerile as it is in
sincere. But even If the Herald
should locate a game; ana even If the
officers should raid and arrest the
payers, what assurance have we that
the same friendly powers who dis
missed the cases against the Sunday
tipplers a year ago would not come TO
the relief of their friends the gamblers,
when all other hope had fled.

Postmaster General Payne seems
loath to let loose of the Allgood hold.up.
The Inspector has reported that only
two toughs were engaged in the hold-up;
that they are severely condemned by
public sentiment, and that the carrier
can proceed upon his route without any
danger of bodily harm. But that does
not satisfy Mr.. Payne. A ward of the
administration has been insulted by
some poor white trash, and all the
people along his route must fall down
and beg his pardon before they can get
their mail any more. So good chance
to discipline the South and pander to
the prejudices of the North, must be
improved, don't -youknow.

The new constitution of Alabama
makes it felony for a member OF the
Alabama legislature to ride on a free
pass, or even to request one. They shall
not ride on them themselves; neither
shall they request one for ''their cousins
or their sisters or their aunts;" their
personal friends or political henchmen.
A mighty good law that Tennessee
ought to have it. And it ought to be
extended to every official-state, county
or municipal, and to the newspaper
fraternity as well. But Tennessee can
not even get constitutional convention,
much less good, wholesome constltu-
tional laws, so long as Legislators traffic
in free passes.

The Nashville American says: "The
saloonkeeper who conducts his business
according to law should never again
allow himself to be used to help out a
lot of gamblers. The legitimate saloon
keeper has nothing to fear if he but
vote for his own interests instead OF
allying himself with those other saloon
keepers who violate the law by permit
ing gambling on their premises. The
above is worthy the consideration OF
some of the liquor dealers of Columbia.
For Columbia will have reckoning
next December with the gamblers and
Sunday tipplers, and those who sell to
minors. And it would be the better
part of wisdom for those few liquor
dealers who conduct their business
according to law, not to ally themselves
with those who conduct their business
contrary to law.
