No WHITE MAN DrsPRANCHrsED
How Restricted Negro Suffrage Works
in States Farther South.

Ex-Iieutenant Governor Winston,
of North Carolina, spoke in Baltimore
Monday night. He declared that the
Straus amendment would not disfran-
chise any white voter who did not
want to be deprived OF his right to
vote. The measure, he said, would
disfranchise fewer men than the SINH
lar amendments in the eight other
States. He contended that it was the
fairest measure of its kind ever writ
ten, and said 1t included the best fea-
lures of the eight similar amendments
now in the fundamental law of the
eight Southern States which have been
forced to restrict suffrage.
In the operation of the amendments
In the Southern States he said no case
has ever arisen In which the right of
a white citizen to vote was questioned.
If there we're one case ON record
in any of the States" he declared,
''in which the rights of white voter
native or foreign born-were ques-
toned and his privilege denied him
the opponents OF the Maryland meas
ure would have presented It as an
argument against the measure. Since
they have not advanced such an
argument, and since they cannot do so
1t is plain that there has never been
such a case. The liberality Of the
amendments to the white man Is vim
aicated.
"In Maryland. as In North Carolina,
the amendment DISTINGUISHES no white
man, but nearly every negro. The real
truth OF the matter Is that, barring the
flliterate negro, who should not be
given the power OF voting, no one
will be deprived of the right OF suf-
frage. We have in our seaport towns
In North Carolina a large PERCENTAGE
of foreign-born citizens, who have
continued to vote under the amend
ment as they did prior to Its passage
! know OF no case in which q white
man has been refused the right TO put
his vote in the ballot box I'm North
Carolina or any of the other Southern
States because of the provisions OF
the amendments. | defy the oppon-
ents of your measure to prove that
foreigner or the son of any foreigner
has been denied the ballot box by the
suffrage amendments
Every evil you hear predicted from
your proposed measure was predicted
in each Southern State when the
amendments were submitted Not
single prediction Of evil has come true
Every promise Of good has been full
filled. In place Of predicted evils
present you accomplished facts.
