The MARYLAND legislature has as

after the next state election.
The bills we're passed by both the
houses and will be sent to the gov
ernOr
There are four bills in all. The hrs'
repeals 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
,tItutional amendment designed to re
strict registration for all time to th'
white persons OF the state. as II pro
hibits any future legislature from ex
tending the registration privilege U
negroes. except those owning t3O'

This amendment will be voted upol
in the fall Of 1911 by white men oni
provision has been inserted whicl
will permit the white voters. II the
so desire 10 extend the privilege G
registration and the ballot box to NJ
groes owning and paying taxes on $50

10 insert this provision, as the DENT
cratic leaders desire to shut out onl
the thriftless and ignorant negroe
and are willing to admit TO the ball'
box those who have sufficient THRIFT
accumulate $500 worth OF property.
This property qualification
thought preferable TO an education
qualification. because il Is believe
that the negro who has accumulate
