soon ceased. When he returned to

able for the poor. Since Won Behring's
immortal discovery that the blood
serum OF a horse which has recovered
from diphtheria possessed wonderful
curative properties, and when intro.
aneed into the human organism, would
usually destroy the disease, this for.
mer scourge OF childhood has lost
nearly all its terrors. In the old davs
diphtheria destroyed nearly one,half
OF all the children II sssailed. It would
do the same today among the poor In
Pennsylvania were it not for the anti

porations, operating fancy bar-room, and
championing the damnable money schemes of
Wall Street) this Old Man Peepul actually
took it into his noggin that [ had deserted
him; and that Hoke, Boykin Wright, Law
ton Milton "and ct cetery', we're the Only
True Friends the poor old fellow had In The
World.
I've caught it hot and heavy for taking
sides with Old Man Peepul; and have been
slammed around a right smart on his &C
count; but [ never knew what political hurt
ing was until he hurt me-
But gradually the Old Man is seeing
things as they actually were, and is ceasing
to say hard things about me-
And by the time he realizes that the Hoke
Inner Circle heve diSfr0nchised more q07ite
men than negroes, Old Man Peepul will have
learned that in opposing Hoke's reelection,
l was engaged In the same old fight.
This is how it was:
Hoke and his Inner Circle wanted to
frame rules, regulations and laws which en-
able the Bosses to disfranchise country coun-
ties as the BOykin Wright methods, of the
Nineties, had done IN the Tenth COMPRESSION
al District.
Therefore, they adopted those neoo rules. in
the spring of 1908, which were in violation
of the spirit of our Constitution and aohich
sought to rob the country counties of rights
they bad enjoyed for dajrty-o gears.
Defeated largely on account of those new
rules-the Inner Circle did the next best
thing: they SO framed our new Registration
law that it will weed out considerable per-
centage of the country vote, and aoizZ give
the V0tlng privilege to thousands Of negroes.
The white men who will be disfranchised
are the men of the farm, who are opposed to
that Inner Circle of city Bosses The me-
gr0eS oOho aOiW qualify, are chiefly IN the
city-aOhere the Bosses can control thema
See?
The new law is simply abominable; and
its sinister purpose DEFEATS, ALMOST
ENTIRELY, THE INTENT or THE
DISFRANCHISEMENT AMENDMENT.
You should not cote for 0ny candidate, for
the State Senate, or House of Representa-
tives, qoho does not pledge himself to re-
peal Of that Ian. If we must have a registra-
ton law, let us hare one that does NOT place
city negro IN q better position than a poor
9chlte man OF the rural c0nonounity.
Don't forget this. When candidates an
nounce for the next Legislature bone them

And then-oh yes, "like to have forgot
we have a few dozen lunatics who fancy
themselves Socialists, and who can, upon the
slightest inducement or provocation, make
the wellzin ring with inarticulate but stem
torian Noise.
So, you can see for yourself, that to shut
out all these upon the supposition that there
are not, and will not be anybody worth while,
in Georgia, excepting the wildly tangled, and
marvellously mixed Democrats, would be
what is commonly called a "gratuitous as
SUMPTION.
az [ went in with the Democrats to get
the Disfranchisement law, for this reason:
While the White Primary excluded the ne
groes it was not law. Being nothing more
than a party custom, it could be laid on the
shelf at any time that the Democrats needed
the negro vote. They bought the blacks to
beat their white brothers WITH in the Nine
ties, and I knew that, if ever they needed
Sambo's help in the future, they would buy
him again.
So [ made, in the Atlanta speech of Sep
TENDER 1, 1904, the proposition which carried
the unpopular Hoke Smith into office, to act
as Reformer pro tenn.
It was brand new suit of clothes to the
gold-standard Clevelandite, and he wore it
awkwardly, for just one season.
Then, our Reformer pro temo adjourned
