il is "a; gued with pllusibility, Foraker
will draw support from those inclined
toward Fairbanks and at the same

The other theory is also supported
by plausible arguments II is that in
event that the Taft boom fails presi-
dent Roosevelt will throw his support
to Mr. Fairbanks. The latter has
been popularity regarded as not alto
sether in sympathy with The presi

as anything to the fact that he was
closely identified with the Mckinley

FOR ANOTHER AMENDMENT.
Democrats Will Suhszit One To The
People.

Democratic leaders are agreed
that as their party has 4 three
ffths majority in the Legislature
now it is up to il to prepare a dis
franChtsing amendment to be sub
mitted to the people in accordance
with the promise Of their platform.
The question they are pulling
over IS how to prepare a measure
that will disfranchise the negroes
without DISTINGUISHING any white
men.
To the new Attorney General,
Mr.. Isaac Lobe Straus, will be
given the duty of preparing the
original draft of the measure.
Then it will be submitted to the
party leaders and some Republi-
cans, probably II something can
be figured out agreeable to all, it
is thought that a majority for the
measure can be got at the polls.
The Poe amendment was defeat
ed by $4,000 votes. The Demo-
cratic leaders take that to mean
that no proposal to give the regis
trars of election any extraordinary
powers of discrimination v Il meet
with approval They are looking
about for some other way of ac-
complishing their end,
Just row the talk centres largely
around property qualification,
plus, of course, a grandfather S
clause If this principle is adopt
ed, the law will provide something
like this:
That any person who was emit
tied to vote on January I, 1869, in
Maryland or any other State of
the Union, or any descendant of
such person, shall be entitled to
vote without further question.
That any foreign-born citizen of
the United States naturalized on
or before the date of the adoption
of the new law, or any descendant
of such person, shall be entitled to
tie without further question.
That any person who has paid
taxes on $500 worth Of property
for the preceding two years shall
be entitled to vote
Every citizen, in order to qualify
as a voter, must come under some
one of these three heads. It is
recognized that this will not alb
solutely disfranchise all negro
voters, as many of them pay taxes
on the required amount of pro-
perty. 1t also will disfranchise
many foreigners who come to the
State after the passage of the act.
But this, it is thought, cannot be
helped. An educational qualifca-
ton which does not give large dis
eliminating powers to the regis.
trars is looked upon with disfavor,
as large proportion of the negroes
in the State can both read and
