1T has come to our notice that
circulars and pamphlets have been circu-
lated in this county in which prominent
Democrats are made to say that if the
Franchise Amendment is carried that
white men will have trouble in getting
registered, that they will have to ex-
plain certain sections of the Constitu-
ton and be subjected TO other tests.
This is Republican campaign lie. The
Democratic party platform declares
that EVERY WHITE MAN will be en-
titled to register and vote, if the Amend
ment is carried. Every white man who
thinks himself better than negro
should vote for the Amendment.
