UNCLE REMus ON SOLID SOUTH

UNCLE REMUs ON SOLID SOUTH
 Let 1t be kept in mind that 'sUncle Romrs" is 8 magazine published at At lanta, Ga. That 1t was founded by Joel Chandler Harris, that 1t is now managed and edited by southerners born and bred. That 1t is so intensely southern that it does not publish even story in which the scene and leading characters are not of the south.
 It is this magazine that recently dis cussed "sympathetically, seriously and above all honestly the question, "shall the solid south be shattered7' And its discussion is so significant, yet withal so characteristic, of the south; {; 1t goes so far beyond the usual position of the southern press, and is so frank, that we believe 1t is worthy of gener- ous quotation.
 Evidently this question is no longer . sacred tradition which to discuss is political saerilege, the minds of tha southern men ara beginning to unlock and "negro domination" while still centralized issue, will not much longer suffice to keep demagogues su- preme aud the south in the political, industrial and financial background, "sileIt, solidly partisan and therefors powcrless.
 ''In the south,' says Uncle Remns, 'the youth imbibes the doctrine of democracy, as oppos,d to republic anism not democracy for the sake of it's principles, but because it has seemed the party to serve as a bulwark against republic canisn, wtich in the past has al ways borne to southern rostrils the tainted suggestion of equality for the negro and reckless appointment to office where he might offend. Today the question is changed in aspect. There has been a more generous understand ing on the part of the north. Conner cial conditions have created new views ard nav needs.''
 The young negroes could not under stand tho traditional attachment of their fathers, it says, for their former masters and the young whites widened the breach. The funds poured from ths north for negro education were re- garded as conscience money from New England purses fat with profits from the slave trade.
 '. "The south has never believed, and never will believe, that tho negro sho..ld have been given the right to vote before he was fully equipped to measure the responsibility of his sui traga There are thousands of south erners who feel that if Lincoln had lived he would not have permitted this to occur, or would have restricted it to conform with the soath's yisws.'

 Then came disfranchisement, first by force, then by law; bat as result the white primary came also, where white democrats settled the after election when they named tho candidates. "In nine casss cut of ten there is no issue, no platform, save democracy" Not one stsp forward is taken in educating the people in the issues, the problems and perplexities of our complicated government.
 With two parties confronting each other it sees this changed with tariff, trust curbing, banking, finance, canal conditions, foreign relations and what not discussed in every campaign, and the seeds of ambition with knowledge of statesmanshop sown in the young.
 But the. problem which disfranchise- ment holds for the future is also seen. The negro is educating himself and fitting himself to claim tha franchise which soon can no longer be denied him, while the white, sheltered in the granddaddy' clause, sits content in his illiteracy. "whistling and whit ting" forgetting that when grand fathers become great grandfathers the law no longer makes his descendant a voter. x
 What then is the remedy7 Solidly democratic, the south "Uncle Remus' foresees must remain also hopeless and helpless. Its foregone solidity leaves 1t without power in that party's councils and conventions, whilo for the same reason the republicans ignore 1t as a political and economic entity.
 It sees only two ways out of this condition, "one to demand control of the democratic party, and then, if the demand is refused, take control and nominate it's own man out of the south and begin fight from the start and to the finish. The other way is to break the solid south.''' -
 It does not consider the former as practical evidently, as 1t does not dis cuss 1t. The latter would mean south ern cabinet officer, southern republican congressman and the south as factor in republican councils, for none but 8 staunch southerner could be elected from the south by either party, and "there you have the south's political freedom told in a nutshell.''
 To ttis end 1t concludes as only neces- sary that each southerner should vote his honest convictions, whether for re- publican or democratic doctrines, md to make this possible President Taft is asked to "keep the gadfy Of negro ap- pointnnsnt away from the south.''
 Certainly when radically southern publication can speak thus frankly, it must soon become possible for respecta- ble men in the south to be republicans and to vote their convictions in suf- Acient numbers to form an opposition party of such proportions that all the contest would not bagin and end in the democratic white primary.
