GRANDFATHER CLAUSE VOID.

Judge John H. Cotteral of the United
States District Court at Oklahoma
City, Okla, has overruled the demur-
rer of defendants in the case of the
United States against four election
officers, holding, the grandfather
clause" amendment to the state con:
stitution invalid, because it is in VIC
lation of the Fifteenth amendment to
the Federal Constitution.
The power to grant the right to
vote, the Court held, was not given to
the Federal Government, but the
Fifteenth Amendment decreed that the
right to vote should not be denied any
person because of race, color or pre-
vious condition of servitude."
To make the subsection of certain
individuals to the Educational test
dependent on their condition before
1896 would make it dependent on their
race and color, the Court held.
The grandfather clause" exempts
from the educational test" those
whose ancestors were entitled to vote
on January 1, 1866, or were residents
of foreign country. Under this clause
Afro-Americans we're denied the right
to vote. .>: ..~.,
