Some persons say luncn is merely
an apology TO the stomach for the long

Others say that anything eaten in the

eater has hundred thousand dollars

is luncheon. The average man, the one

THE SOUTH AND THE NEGRO

THE SOUTH AND THE NEGRO
The indications are that the law which would have re-
suited in the disfranchsemen OF large portion OF the
negro in Oklahoma has been defeated The fact that
the attempt made has caused considerable discussion
of the negro being deprived or less OF his right to
vote in many of the southern states. Like all other
questions it has two sides 1t was unfortunate that the
negro was enfranchsed when he was Unfortunate both
to the whites and to the negroes Some millions OF them
were given their freedom and at the same tne mace
citizens and given the right to vote Ihey knew nothn

arrogant swelled up with Importance? Surely not.
The result that in some states the negro leglsla
lures ruled made the laws and fastened burdens OF debt
on the states that heavy to bear They owned no
property paid taxes and cared not what happened TO
their old masters Backed by white officers from the
north who were generally not Of the better class of
politicians for nearly all appointed as reward for
petty service all they were capable OF rendering, tney

ruin staring them in the face unless condtons coo De

1t was these conditions that brought the KuKux Kan
into existence Had the negro been given his freedom
and then been denied citizenship until he prepared for
it, would have been far better for him as well as the
whites People of the north criticise the southern
methods and point with horror to the fact that the negro
is deprived in many of his political rights WEI
are not defending the system neither condemnng
it, for it is not foot that it pinches While condemn
ing the whites of the south for refusing to permit the
nontaxpayng element, the negro to vote, the critics
overlook the fact that here in Oregon well as in most
of the northern states do the thing to the poor
white voter The man who pays taxes unless ne has
children of school age cannot vote at election where
bonds are submitted Why? For the same reason the
south deprves the negro of his right to vote at general

To deprive any citizen of his right to vote is admittedly
wrong Yet permit the free voting of the negro in the
south would mean negro officials, Legislatures, negro

it is that will tend to bring unonsm into dsrepute and
