There are many issues which the republican party, if brave enough, can take a hand in settling, if there had been' free voting even among the white men of the south President Wilson would not have been re-elected. No law prevents a white man from voting the republican ticket in the south, but public opinion re strains him. The old rebel cause has considerable to do with the south as a voting proposition. But under present conditions there is no more freedom of ballot in the south than there was in Poland. President Wilson started in the present campaign with the solid south assured. He Had 120 electoral votes. It was scarcely necessary to count the ballots from the south. Nobody has been reading the returns from the solid south. In the face of this sup porters of the president have been glorifying him as a new discovery in high power manhood. This country has continued this in justice for over 50 years. You can make a campaign in Pa j kota or Nebraska or in Montana or ! Kansas, but you cannot make a cam | paign in the old south, in the confed j erate states as they were. One of two : things ought to be done. These south ern states ought to be deprived of a large number of electoral votes. They have disfranchised the negro by one process or another, yet the negro is counted as a voter and a man in the distribution of members of congress and members of the electoral college. I The south ought not to have the ben ! efit of the negro in making up their | representation in congress or else they cught not have power to disfran chise him. The entire civilized world knows of these (nnditions and knows that the ' American people have not had the courage to straighten the matter out by doin'- justice. if •.he south disfranchise the negro I the south ought to bear the conse quences of his loss in representation. Every injustice which is tolerated and not settled as soon as it is dis covered becomes a danger to the re public.—Pes Moines, la.. Capital.
