The daily sentinel., 1905-10-06

According to the condition which
! seems to dominate old men, that is
that they want to do something boy
ish" when they reach old age, the
days of boyhood must be the golden
period of life. If boys could only
realize this fact, the longing for the
things that were pleasant in youth
by men of mid+le and old age, they
would place more value on the days
of their youth. There is hardly a
man who is successful in life, who
would not give worlds TO be able to
go back and enjoy the "old swim
min hole" the skating pond and the
romps along the pathways in the
meadows and forest, when they We're
heart and fancy free in boyhood. But
it is the ineXorable law of nature that
age has its penalties and one of them
is that boyish things are not possible
TO men of age. But we might keep
telling our boys to enjoy their lives
eaeh=d day, at the same time fII them
with good work and this would bring
contentment to old age. even though
denied boyish pleasures.

strong and Able Article.

Special attention is called to an article on
the first page Of this issue, under the caption
Of Booker T. Washington aud the Negro,
by Thomas Dixon, Jr. Ii IS reprinted FROM
the Saturday Evening Post, Of Philadelphia,
and is particularly strong presentation Of the
race problem in this country.
Mr.. Dixon, who is the author Of the widely
read book, ''The Leopard Spots, Is an argu.
mentaiive and forcible writer and has given
more thought to the race problem than per
haps any other man.
He emphasizes several facts-lst, that eduea'
cation of the negro further separates the white
and black races; ID, that the two races can not
live on terms of social, political and industrial
equality; Sd, that amalgamation, as preached
by some negro leaders, is not only no; a remedy,
but repulsive and impossible; 4ih, that It is
impossible to create nation within a nation;
9Th, that deportation and colonization, as
urged by Lincoln. is the only solution.
At this time, when the negro question is
uppermost in Maryland, the article will be
found particularly interesting and instructive.
Everybody should read the article closely.

Judge Phelps

Judge Charles L. Phelps, in the Criminal
Court of Baltimore, on "Wednesday. IN his

"A proposed change in the organic iaW ot

10 Grand Jury IS Official, to understand.

Error Corrected.

In answer to an inquiry the Baltimore sun
said one day last week that although man $
grandfather was voter in 1869, if his father
was not be could not vote under the grand
father" clause of the proposed franchise
amendment. Last Saturday, in making a
correction, ii said that leading member OF
the Baltimore bar had given the opinion upon
which the answer was based.
That leading legal luminary must have been
one of the alleged lawyers who have been
writing against the amendment in the BalIi-
more News. They are too dumb to under
stand the amendment when they read it. The
Suns legal light does not know the difference
between lineal descendant and continuous
lineal line of voters. 1t is doubtful if he
would know clothes line if he saw one. If
his father or grandfather was not voter in
1869, or if he did not vote himself in that year,
he could not pass the educational test.

County Democratic Ticket.
The Right of Appeal.

The Republicans being forced to admit that
there is provision in the registration and cleo
ton law for appeal from the decisions of
registrars of voters, they are assuming that It
would be difficult to have appeal heard.
Further, they contend that a court would
have difficulty in determining the sufhciency OF
reasonable explanation" of a section of
the Constitution, as given by an applicant for
registration.
These objections are mere speculationS, put
out to conceal their real objection to the
amenjment-that they favor negro suffrage;
that they want to retain the negro as voter.
Now, as to the evidence regarding the sutfi-
cheney of the reasonable explanation.
That explanation is made in the presence OF
two registrars of voters-one Republican and
one Democrat. These make two Witnesses.
The applicant would be another, making
three. These would be enough, but there are
usually other persons present, especially at
times of general registration.
The testimony of three witnesses would be
sufficient to enable the court TO determine
whether the explanation given by the appli-
cant was reasonable. The evidence of the
applicant alone, if it did not totally conflict
with that of the registrars, would be very i'm
portant in aiding the court to a decision.
Judge Stockbridge, of Baltimore city, las,
week, examined an applicant for uaturaliza-
ton as to his knowledge of the Federal Con-
stitution. The applicant failed to satisfy the
Judge that his ideas of republican form of
government we're sufficient to entiile him to
citizenship, and refused TO issue naturalization
papers No objection was raised to the decision
of Judge Stockbridge. Iu fact, one Baltimore
daily complimented bis act, taking the posi-
ton that every foreigner should have some
conception of our system Of government be-
fore becoming participant in it.
The Republicans lay great stress upon APP
plicants for registration having to have their
right thereto submitted to the discretion Of
tuoo persons. In the case Of the applicant for
naturalization, the applicant had to submit
his claim to one person.
An application for registration covers only
the voting privilege.
An applicant for NATURALIZATION covers Tue
privileges of citizenship well as the voting
privilege.
In the registration case t'eo persons sit in
Judgment. In the naturalization case one
person decides.
An there is another point that should be
borne in mind: Registration officers are plain
citizens-not lawyers. The plain citizen
would naturally accept an explanation Of
section of the Constitution given il plain,
everyday language. The inclination Of a
Judge would be toward TO more technical ex-
PLANTATION The applicant tor registration,
therefore, wOnld fare better before two repu-
table plain citizens as registrars OF voters,
where only one privilege WAS involved, than
petitioner for naturalization, all OF whose
privileges are at stake, would before Judge.

An Honest Confession.

The Republicans have been offering al
sorts of objections to the adoption of the fran
chise amendment, none of which bear the
ANALYSIS of reason and fact The real reason
for Republican opposition has been concealed
by press, writers, Bonaparte and all the lesser
lights until stated by the Examiner, Repub
lican paper of Annapolis, in recent issue.
1t said
by recording against it every negro vote
iH Southern Maryland and upon this
ern Naryiand depends the very exist
ence of the Republican party In the
State. Its life comes TO n sudden end
otherwise"
That is Just it, Without the negro vote the
Republican party would come TO an end IN
Maryland, as formidable factor. In half
dozen counties, in Southern Maryland and on
the Eastern Shore, the Republican party
would not number 500 in any, with the negroes
eliminated. In every county, except two,
the Republican party would be far in the
minority.
The Republican party in Maryland. so far
as white men are concerned. is going back
ward 1t is owned and controlled, through
the manipulation Of the negroes, by Federal
office holders-Custom House officials, In
terna Revenue officers and poslmasters. And
they are strong enough TO hold the offices and
cut out all Others The other white men of
the party are only needed to help the negroes
to make good showing at the polls IN order
that the ofice-ho may retain their grip.
Every Republican county convention in
this State in this very year of 1905 has been
controlled by Federal office holders, princi,
pally postmasters. The recent convention in
Carroll was directed by Office holders. and the
active delegates, with one exception, were
Office holders. The convention nominated u
respectable ticket, but not an office holder
present expects man of them to be elected.
They were only put up to get out the white
vote. which, combined with the 500 negroes.
will make good showing at the polls in No
vember. The office holders are well fixed.
They do not care whether any nominee is
elected respectable vote is all that is
needed
And the same condition exists in other
counties The only concern the party man
ayers have is 10 control the party machinery
and hold the Federal offices.
Those Republicans who are held ON the
outside will never be- recognized until the
negro is eliminated. With the negro reliance
gone the Federal Office holding clique will he
out Of business and the party can be reor-
