DlAZ DEAD

Porfrio Diaz, former president
of Mexico, died at Biarritz,
France, the other day. Gener-
al Diaz was driven into exile
three years ago by Madeira, who
had himself elected president OF
the republic, who in turn was
murdered by order of General
Huerta. Diaz came into proml-
hence in the days when France
attempted, to place a member OF
the Hapsburg family, who had
ruled Austria for centuries, as
emperor of Mexico. The unfor-
tunate ruler was overthrown and
at the unrelenting hand of Diaz
was executed.
Diaz became president of Mex
leo in 1876 and served continu-
ously until he was driven into
exile three years ago. While
accredited as a republic, Mexico
under Diaz was nothing less than
an empire with Diaz as dictator.
Presidential elections were held
regularly but no one dared to
offer as a candidate against the
dictator. While the country un-
der his government enjoyed
peace and %quietude, ignorance
and poverty was the condition OF
the great mass Of Mexican peo-
Pile. President Diaz found It
easier to govern the ignorant
masses than to enlighten them,
and so long as his lower was
supreme he cared but little for

The explosion of a bomb in one
of the senate reception rooms in
Washington. that was followed
by the shooting of J. Pierpont
Morgan at his home above New
York City by Frank Holt, was
evidently the work of a man
whose mind was unbalanced.
The subsequent death of Holt in
his cell in the Jail where he was
inca rcerated adds to the mys-
terry of his life. Suspicion rest
ed upon him as having concealed
his identity by assuming the
name of Holt. 1t was believed
by some who formerly knew him
that he was in reality a German
named Muenter who disappear
ed when his wife suddenly died
several years ago at Cambridge,
Mass. His mind evidently be-
came unbalanced in his sympathy
for the German cause while
brooding over the fact that this
country sold munitions of war to
the allies. His death puts an
end to what promised to be
a sensational trial for his
offenses.

THE GRANDFATHER CLAUSE

The Supreme Court of the
United States by unanimous de-
cision has declared that the
Grandfather Clause" in the
constitution of Oklahoma is vio-
lative of the Fifteenth Amend
ment to the Constitution of the
United States. Oklahoma is one
of the last states to be admitted
to the Union and in order to
eliminate the negro vote the con-
stitution of several Southern
States that had in them the
Grandfather Clause" was fol-
lowed in drafting a constitution
for the new state. Maryland
has recently inserted the same
clause in her constitution.
What is known as the Grand
father Clause" in the several
constitutions of the Southern
States is a clause that permits a
man to vote where his grand
father was permitted to vote.
This clause sought to eliminate
the negro vote and to permit
white men without literary edu-
cation to vote because their
grandfathers had been able to
vote.
The opinion was written by
Chief Justice White, of Louisi-
ana, and concurred in by the en-
tire court, including Justice La
mar, of Georgia, and Justice
McReynolds, of Tennessee.
The states that have a Grand
father Clause" in their consti-
buttons will now be forced to ad-
Just their franchise clauses to
meet the opinion of the Supreme
Court.
The trainers of the Mississippi
constitution were wiser than
some of their neighbors and
drafted a franchise clause which
very effectually eliminated the
negro vote and at the same time
did not impose disfranchisement
on the whites. The states that
will be forced to make a change
in their franchise clause can find
in the Mississippi plan just what
they have been looking for.
The negro in the South does
not want to vote. He is satisfied
with his condition before the
law. He is willing to leave him.
self in the lhands of the white
man whose sense of justice is
recognized in the fair dealings
which the negro receives at his
hands. This is the white mans
country, the negro recognizes
that fact and knows that the
white man will rule this land.
