THE HEARING PRESENTED A DUBIOUS QUESTION

The herring conducted by the Senate Investigation
committee here last week beyond any doubt one OF
the most far reaching and significant events in the entire
history of the stote The findings of the committee hos
been set for some where around the sixteenth doy OF De-
cember but the final result of the herring will not be known
until the Goth Congress organized sometime during the
first week in January.
The point brought up in the that the white peo
pie of the state have owoys thought their duty to resort
to any means keep the Negro Of the stoe from voting
seems at most q rather dubious question.
Since the adoption of the present state constitution
the development of the present state primary laws nclud
inc the poll tax Iow there has been constantly decreos
inc number of in the sote As in the last election
when only of the possible voters of the state
elected member of the United States Senote. At the
most the opinion only be said to be now held by sper
cent of the voters of the state
The question of the right of the Negro to vote never
has been presented the voters of the state the merits
of he question: if it it not unreasonable to assume
that the majority of the white people of the state would
oct jus they ocng in Georgia, and the only noice
would be made by few demoeogues and self seeking poll
ticons.

If the current reports of the finding of the committee
be true it will not be surprising if the Southern Association

Whot wrong with Acorn is not the fou of its pres
