THE NEGROES PRODUCING
POWER.

II Is almost inConceivable that a
Republican statesman OF Hon. Shell
by NJ. Cullom's calibre and standing
should have erred 10 such an extent
ss TO give voice to such utterances as
have been attributed TO him. In a
speech alleged TO have been deliver
ed by this distinguished Senator from
Illinois. he is quoted as follows.
But j am satisfied. that if the
Negro were not factor In politics
IN the South. there wouldn't be 2
State in that section which would
not be in line with our party. and
which would not support our can
didates and their principles. Take
State like Alabama. for instance.
There is a community which posses
ses vast coal, iron and other indus
tries demanding a protective tariff
With her rank States like Tennessee.
Texas and others. They all want be

pie are ready 70 join us were il not
for the Negro. How can you blame
communities like South Carolina
and Mississippi. for instance, for
voting the Democratic ticket when
IN some sections the portion OF col
ored population is ten blacks 10 one
white? IL is in communities like
these that the white people are
afraid"
Now as matter OF fact, there Is
not state south OF the Mason and
Dixon line, with the lone exception
of West Virginia where the colored
citizens are a political factor. They
are about just as much in evidence
In all of the rest Of them, so far as |
exercising any political influence in /
the voting as would be a running
Chinaman or dead Indian. The !
white South lives on its prejudices
1t has a ranking feeling that was
engendered by four years of fratri-
cidal strife and every effort now be
ing made is in the direction OF hav-
ing the loyal North admit that the
South was right. without necessarily
stating that the North was wrong
