Maryland Negroes DI.franehI.ed.

Maryland Negroes DiSfranchised.
The Mar land legislature has dis
franchised over as. 900 negroes SO far
as state and municipal elections are
concerned by the passage of the bills
OF Delegate w. Mitchell Digges. OF
Charles county. II is the most sweep
inE method OF Acknowledgement ever
attempted in any state. and even lead
ing statesmen OF the far southern
states have expressed a doubt as to It's
constitution 1lity. But the scheme is
so ingeniously worked out that no real
test can be made in the courts until
after the next state election.
The bills were passed by both the
houses and will be sent 10 the gov
ernor.
There are four bills in ali. The nrst
repeats the existing registration laws:
the second enacts a new registration
measure providing that none but white
men shall be registered in the future
as voters, the third carries the con.
stitutional "mendment designed to re
strict registration for all time to the
white perso OF the state. as II pro
hibits any future legislature from eK.
tending the registration privilege 10
negroes. except those owning $500
worth Of property.
This amendment viii be voted upon
in the fall OF 1917 by white men only
A provision has been inserted which
will permit the white voters. n they
so desire. TO extend the privilege of
registration and the ballot box to ne
groes owning and paying taxes on $500
worth OF property. II was thought best
TO insert this provision. as the Demo
cratic leaders desire to shut out only
the thriftless and ignorant negroes
and are willing TO admit TO the ballot
box those who have sufficient thrift to
accumulate $500 worth OF property.
This property qualification is
thought preferable 10 an educational
qualification. because II is believed
that the negro who has accumulated
property will prove better worthy OF
the franchise than the educated negro,
', may be weighted with all the
shiftlessness OF his race.
The fourth bill extends the terms Of
the mayor and other municipal officers
Of Baltimore city. so that their success
sors will be chosen at the November
state election. spring elections being
abolished. The bills are based upon
the assumption that the Fifteenth
amendment is void. and II Is declared
in the preamble that the exercise OF
the elective franchise by tho negro 10
