men come up one after the other and
go behind the table and sign his name
or have it signed for him, and not
a word asked him. have seen the ex-
aminer of an election examine colored
doctor who had drug store and was
practicing in the city, but he was re-
jected as incompetent to be registered.
This same doctor had been examined
by the state medical board and Ii
censed to practice in the state, and
still these registrars turned him down
as not competent.
Another thing, the questions they
asked the black man were printed
and answers set opposite: the poor
black fellow must give the answers
or not be registered at all-and often
this was hard to do, give worS for
word as he had it p.Hlted. Then
most of these questions were on civil
government; and some country school
teachers were examined on interi-a-
tional law. Another most ridiculous
case was that of one professor of New
Orleans university This learned gen
tleman came in very humble indeed.
The registrar turned round and said,
What do you want?' The soft answer
came, II want to register" The next
question was: Can you write? Yes,
sir, / think So No" said the regis
trar, stand aside AS the professor
was leaving tho court house, he met
the sheriff who was his friend, who
said to him: Professor, have you
registered?" mo, they say can't
write" Core back with me, will

into the Office and said Gentlemen,
this is PROFESSOR of New Orleans
university. He is professor of that
institution and teaches Greek, Latin

The Negro Franchise Question


To the Editor of The Gate City.
Mr.. Ballinger: j read in The Gate
City with great interest your very in
teresting article on negro franchise in
TIN south. or course, being recently
from the south, ! was particularly in
terested in what you had to say.
wish to confirm some things you say,
and also to call your attention to a few
things which perhaps, did not come
to your notice or hearing while there.
There are SO few, who make these
short visits to the south, and return
north, and write long articles about
the negro, and in many of them fail
to give the negro Justice. Many Of
them seem to judge all of them by a
few they see hanging around the de-
pots. think, howver, you have
looked the real situation squarely in
the face. But for a person to thor
oughly understand the situation, and
not be bias in judgment, it takes
something else, besides an occasional
visit. He must live there several
years. Then if he is honest and just
and is willing, as the Hit crate south
erner says, to tote" fair, he can
weigh conditions fairly and Justly.
