sented and shall answer them both
in the affirmative.
First: Has the state the constitu
tional and legal right to pass such
M amendment? To raise such n
question is almost equivalent to an
swering it. Time and again the
courts have declared that state
has the power TO regulate the man
ner Of voting. and to impose such
limitations upon suffrage as necessi-
ty may demand. While state has
no power under the federal consti.
tuition to deny anyore the power or
privilege OF voting, it has the power
to say in what manner suffrage
shall be exercised. 1t has the power
10 decree what qualifications the
voter shall possess before he shall

under consideration to be viewed as
new or uneXampled legislation. \ pro
vision identically the same has been
a part of the organic law of North
Carolina for several years. It was
adopted only after a tensely fought
campaign in which its constitutional
ity was severely questiJ ned. Subse-
quent to its adoption ii has been
tested by the courts of thel and and
its validity has been established by
the supreme tribunal of the nation.
Hence We conclude that the state
possesses the right to impose limita-
tions upon suffrage. We also con
clude that it unquestionably has the
right to impose an education qualifi-
cation for suffrage, and We positive.
ly conclude that the state has pie
nary power to adopt and enforce an
ancestral or Grandfather" Qualifica-
ton, inasmuch as the high courts
have tested the validity of such law
and have given it force and conse-
Grafton.
The present necessity for suffrage
regulation is a matter susceptible Of
clear demonstration. While the sec.
ond proposition may be opposed with
genuine earnestness by those who
have given the situation little thought
its affirmative truth will appeal to
those who are familiar with the
conditions obtaining in our state.
That the first proposition is true no
one viii deny. That the second prop
Csition is equally true is easily seen
In truth II was a sal apprentices
of a grave necessity that called to
mind legal possibility. 1t was only
when the advocates of this amend
ment saw the danger, and the ever
increasing danger of unlimited suf-

questioned legal power by which tina:
danger might be neutralized
An ignorant ballot is a dangerous
ballot. As dangerous in kn1 as the

the illiterate voter. In a land where
men have died for popular govern

The results of years. No one would

Incorrigible Thief Once More
Behind Familiar
Prison Bars

Quincy Jones Is at home again In
more ways than one. He is in Jail
on charge OF larceny from the per-
son. 1t is claimed that about 4 O'Clock
Sunday morning he held up one Del
phos Tripett at the Santa Fe station
and took Sc. He was caught early
this morning
This neryy piece of work seems to
be characteristic OF Quincy. He
seems to have sauntered down to the
station just before daylight in a caus-
ual sort OF way and TO have tackled
the first man he saw. DephOs is a
young, rather inexperienced negro and
he had entireiyltoo much money to
be safe around the Harrison avenue
gang. In sight of a few passengers
and employees, who did not realize
what was happening, Quincy extract

and strolled away. The feelings OF
Delphos were badly hurt and he com
