The Grandfather Clause.
Infamous Scheme of Haskell Machine
10 Disfranchise Voters

The amendment TO the Constitution
commonly known as THE Grandfather
Cause" suggested to the people by
the legislature at the recent special
session as a part of the democratic
scheme TO disfranchise the negroes of
the State, and to be voted upon under
the Infamous provision of Senate Bill
No. 126, is as follows
NO person shall be registered rs an
elector of this state, or be allowed TO
vote in any election held herein, unless
he be able to read and write any Sec
ton of the Constitution of the State of
Oklahoma but no person who was, on
January lst, 1865, or at any time prior
thereto, entitled to vote under any
form Of government, or who at that
time resided in some foreign nation,
and no lineal descendant of such per-
son shall be denied the right to regis
ter and vote because of his inability to
so read and write sections of such Con-
stitution.
Precinct election inspectors having
in charge the registration of electors
shall enforce the provisions OF this Sec
ton. Should registration be dispensed
with, the provisions OF this section
shall be enforced by the precinct elec-
tion officers when the electors apply
for ballots to vote"
This, it will readily be seen, provides
fo- an educational test which shall ap-
ply only to the negro who was in 1866
a slave, or his descendants but it does
not specify the white man, Indian,
Japanese, Chinese or Malay, and these
may vote irrespective of whether they
can read or write.
