able now to expect that the straight
Democrats will be willing to risk
themselves in Offering him anything.
But if it is shown in this election by
actual proof that the Negro can be de-
pended upon to be one-half as loyal
to the straight Democrats in future
as they have been to the straight Re-
publicans in the past, | give it as my
opinion that it will be the beginning
of a better day for the Negroes in
Tennessee.
AS to the second question, the sta
tistics show that not one-half of the
Negroes of Nashville have yet regis
tered. According to the census of
1900 there were about $4,000 Negroes
within the corporate limits of Nash
Vile. If one-fifth are voters, It would
give 1000 Negro males of voting age.
Hence it can be seen that not one
half of the Negroes have yet regis
tered.
Under the Dortch Law which is in
force in Nashville, a man will have to
have a reasonable primary education
and must be well informed before he
can vote. He must be able not
only to take his ballot and read
the names and mark them, but
he must be so we'll posted that
he will know the name of each
candidate for whom he wishes
to vote. An ignorant nan cannot,
therefore, vote with any degree of GER
tainty. Again, unless he is above fifty
years of age, he must have paid up
his taxes, and must exhibit his tax
receipt.
If for no other reason it would be
a blessing to the state of Tennessee
if every male Negro, twenty-one years
of age, would register and vote, for
before voting he must pay to the
state and county in which he lives
$500 per head for each year. If there
fore, the 1000 Negro voters of Nash
vile would each pay into the treasury
$500 education would receive $4,000
or be $4,000 better off. If the $4,000
Negro voters of the state would
register and vote the state would have
$3.50, 900 more with which to educate
its children | think the cry that is
being made by the pulpit and the
alarm being given by the T|ennessean
and the Nashville Banner is given
either for the purpose of exciting un
informed white voters or because the
contributors and editors of these pa
pers and the occupants of the pulpits
are uniformed, or have failed to take
time to look into real conditions.
There is no danger of either igno-
rant or criminal Negroes voting in
Nashville. If they are criminals, they

their speakers have publicly stated
from the platform that the Negro
voters of Tennessee should be dis
franchised. This being the case, the
Negro has nothing to lose and all to-
gain by attempting to make the best
terms possible with the straight Dem
ocrats. Yes, make terms if you
please, with the powers that be; make
terms with those who are on the
throne.
The Negro will at least be in good
company when he is associated with
and recognized by the straight Demo
Gratis of the South. Politically, the
Negro has nothing to lose by the Re
publicans' attitude toward him. They
do not preside in any of the elections;
they do not hold any Office in Tonnes
see, state or national; Uney fill no
clerkships except such as are obtained
under the civil service rule. Only one
Negro holds any position with the
Republican State Executive Com
mittee, and | am sure he can
not be accused of not doing his
duty, or he is eXerting himself.
giving g his time and spendin
his money trying to keep his brother
Negro voters in line. and has ever
gone so far as to acknowledge in an
open article that there was something
more than mere promises that had
driven the Negro from the Republi-
can into the straight Democratic
Party. A true answer TO this would
be that no act performed or prom
,se made by the straight Demo
Gratis would do one-half as much to
lead the Negroes away from the Re
publican and into the Democratic
Party as the past acts of the Repub-
leans themselves.
In closing this statement. | beg to
say that as a Republican ! am glad
the NEGROES have divided. AS a pro-
hibitionist and ~anti-saloonist | am
glad that some Negroes are on both
sdes of these great questions. be-
lieve We, as Negroes who are
going to support Governor Patterson
and his ticket should suppo it as
straight Democrats and have no fear
in saying so. We VINO are going
to support the Independent Judiciary
ticket should support it as ~Independ-
emit Democrats, and should not be
ashamed of that. We should speak
out boldly and take a firm stand. All
things being equal, we have more to
gain in justice by voting for the Pat
terson Ticket. However we who pre-
fer righteousness by law to Justice.
possibly have more to gain in IL own
co%nsciences by voting with the civic
righteous people.

should be convicted; if they are igno-
rant they cannot vote. If they do
vote they must pay their taxes. A
large number of our Negro preachers
are doing just what the white preach
ers are doing-insisting upon the
members of their congregations vo-
ting for what they call civic righteous
ness, and in other elections their con-
gregations have voted at their re-
quest without asking why. They
voted for Mr.. Johns as Independent
Sheriff. He could not have been
elected without the Negro vote. He
enforced the law, cleared the gam
bling dens, stopped Sunday tipping,
stopped the sale of liquor to minors,
but, like the Republicans, forgot those
who voted with him, aiming to re-
turn to the straight Democratic Party
and got left. A great number of them
voted for him again against Mayor
Howse, while a number voted with
the straight Democrats for Governor
Patterson and Mayor Howse, who have
never yet shown themselves to be
ashamed of the Negro voters who
voted for them, hence their word will
go a long way with the Negro voters
of Nashville and Tennessee.
AS to the third question. the Re
publican Party cannot blame or hold
the Negro responsible for voting VIII
the straight Democrats for two rea-
sons.
First. because they have snapped
off the loyal Negro voter for such
Democrats as they could persuade to
leave their party. Colonel Roose-
welt appointed Mr.. Luke Wright to
a national position, knowing that he
was a Democrat. President Taft APP
pointed Judge Lurton, knowing him
to be a Democrat. He also appointed
Mr. j.. M. Dickerson Secretary Of
War, with the understanding that he
was a Democrat.
The Republican State Executive
Committee met in executive session
and ordered all of the Negro Republi-
cans to vote for the Independent Jul
dietary. with the understanding that
these gentlemen were Democrats and
would remain Democrats, and they
have made no promise or pledge to
give the Negroes any judicial rights,
or to say that these Negroes had the
right of trial by jury of their peers,
or ANYTHING else.
These Independent Democrats have
only promised to vote for such Lily
White Republicans as would hold the
same opinion Of the Negro that they
have always held. The T%ennessean,
being the official organ of the indie
pendent Democrats, has already
served notice editorially and some of

the yelled insinuation that the Negro
who .dares have an opinion not in
harmony with orders handed down
by the lily white Republican bosses,
and who entertains a feeling the least
friendly to the present executive of
this state is not Influenced by high
conceptions of duty to himself and
to his race, but rather by the hope of
some m%ercenary consideration for
favors rendered. But our good
friend evidently overlooks the fact
that God in his all-wise providence
has permitted him to witness a new
era and in which is to be found an en-
tirely new Negro, else he would not
be so surprised at this mighty "indig-
nation that has come over the Ne
gro's dream" These old musical
plates from which they have been
wont 10 sing the praises of the grand
old party so long that "the mind of
man runneth not to the contrary" on
the eve of every election through the
"big-Negro" graphophone have seen
their best days, and the Negro of to-
day is learning to stand, like the
white man, for principle above party,

agency of Republicanism, but he has
learned through bitter experience thai
