MEASURE is a DANGEROUS ONE

Ofall the insane, illadyised and
utterly uncalled for proposed legis-
lation now before the Georgia
legislature, the Rome Tribune well
says, that which has for object the
legal Acknowledgement of the negro
is about the limit. Under our
present white primary system the
negro is as completely and positi-
vely disfraEchised as it is possible
to disfranchise him. He has not
now, nor has he had for many
years, a voice through the ballot
box. He is running further and
further behind as the years roll on
in his past due taxes and it would
be tremendous undertaking for
any party, or set of men, to qualify
the negro for voting under our pre-
sent system, were such thing de
sired. Just why this question
which Georgia has long ago settled
in a manner that is entirely salts
factory to the people, should be
agitated at this time, it is beyond
power to comprehend. The negro
is out of politics-the proposed
Legislation would throw him back
in with a vengeance. 1t looks tC
the Tribune as though a studied
and persistent movement is in pro
gress having for its object the di,
vision of the white people of Geor
gia. The tenth Georgia district
seems to be the hot bed of this
movement.

WORKING UPON NEW COUNTIES

According to an Atlanta news
special, not a few of the members
of the House and Senate, partlcu-
Iarlv some among those on the
committees on new counties, are al
ready reaching the conclusion that
new county legislation at this
session is practically out OF the
question.
Indeed, the first new county
hearing before the two committees
has demonstrated the impossibil1ty
of anything being done within the
33 days that are left, if the matter
is to be gone into as thoroughly as
the situation demands.
There are already twenty of these
new county schemes before the
House and Senate.
Each has its advocates anC
opponents. In each case there are
also parties who do not object tt
the establishment of the new
, counties, but who want either t.
be taken in or left out. They alst
: must be heard from.
1t was said of Tiff county, tn,
: first of twenty on the calendar
1 that it had no opposition. Tn
o hearing developed all sort of ha
V opposition, not particular to tn
formation of the county itself, bu
to the boundary lines and tn
!, manner in which it was proposes
d to form it.
S Yesterday afternoon came tn
Crisp county hearing. This is tn
movement that contemplates tax
e ing a part of Dooly county AM
O forming new county with Cordel
J. as the county seat. There is op
position to this movement, an,
those who favor the new count
e are equally determined.
d 1t is not likely that Crisp COUNT
# will be disposed of in one after
noon, and yet three new count
schemes were assigned for hear
D ing on Monday.
n 1t is evident that the new count
s committees have bitten off NOR
than they can chew. The cOnclu
sion is that the new county ques
> ton will have to be referred to
r. committee authorized to sit durin
* vacation and report to the mex
session.
