GOOD BAR CONNECTED
THE MISSISSIPPI OUTRAGE.
The Mississippi constitution, as
amended recently, works like a
charm. It has reduced the nero
vote by about 90,000 throughout the
State, and has left but otic county
with a nero majority. In Lowndes
County, where there are five
negroes to one white resident, the
registration stands liOO whites to
one iiejjro. To what further extent
the negro vote may be reduced
when the educational test is applied
is conjectured; it may be guessed
at at least 10.CJ0 more.
The total vote of Mississippi at
the last Presidential election was
113.S07; about 5.000 negroes who then
voted henceforth will be eliminated
from the list of factors, 10,000 more
may be prevented by operation of
the educational clause, which soon
is to come into operation; it can not
be supposed that less than 10.000
whites who hitherto have exercised
the right of suiTerage will be dis
franchised by the educational test,
for Mississippi disputes with
Louisiana the disgraceful title of
the most ignorant State in the
L'nion. Here, then, is a 'reduction
of 25,000 from voting force ot ls;
00.000 tuny be taken as the number
of voters required to give
Mississippi two Senators and seven
Representatives in Congress. I3ut

shire castsSO,540 votes at a President

but two Congressmen. while
Mississippi's 90,000 voters are to be
represented by seven. Nebraska's
215.000 voters elect but three Con
