demoralization and rotlenne** by tb*
use of the debased and .purchasable
colored vote. My observation non ex

where there I* white leadership and a
rhanee with the negroe* to control at
the ballot box. the colored vote Is tint
purchasable. It 1* only when contend
ing white factions use the negro as an
Instrument again** each that this cor
roupttng element enters, and then the
race issue is dormant, as K Is a case of
white rascal agulnst white rascal set k
|ng to control the offices. In the one
case the politics of a given community
or state will become more and more
corrupt, and In the other the irrepres
sible conflict between the races pro
duce bloodshed and the suppression of
the negro race. The Anglo-Saxon race
has never been dominated by the col
ored race anywhere in all Its history.
England has more to do with eolorf 1
races than any other nationality—than
oil the other nation* combined —and
the Englishman goes about the con
quest and governing of Chinese, Hin
doos. Malay and Africans on the sole
principle of inherent superiority and
right to rule. It Is his birthright to
govern, and he governs by law. where
law will do. and by force where force
Is necessary. The most striking illus
tration of this Is in India, where half
a million or so of Anglo-Saxons. In
cluding the men In the regular army,
dominate absolutely and control* two
hundred millions of Hindoos. Tfllier?
were a change of policy on the part
of the national government towards
the colored mce in the Southern abates
and the negro was allowed to ab

I. That the state president has been
acting wholly within th# eonstt-
I tut lon and by laws of the state dir ta
lon.
S. That by the Constitution of the
! Georgia Division the position of pres
ident Is specifically exempted from
the control of the Mate board. The
action of the board Is therefore revo- j
; lutlonary.
4. That this resolution doe# not
courteously set forth reason* why the
president should take the action, but
Inaulttngly demands something solely
within the discretion' of the president
himself.
5. That this resolution was declar-l
idly based on resolutions worked up
In the several pos’s by men who had
a specific purpose In fomenting dis
cord. As evidence or this Insincerity,
these resolutions were immediately
paraded in the public presr. but not
one of them courteously forwarded to]
Pres. Smith.
6. That the author of this resolu
tion of the state board has the reputa
tion of being contentious and schem
ing: and that he never discovered. In
the two years his bfothar-ln-!aw lived
out of Georfgtft (being president or
first vice president), that any law
was violated or any wrong whatever
done.
7. That the active participants of
respectable standing were Mr. J. Jones
Gardiner and Mr. Joseph Lovensteln,
whilst lurking Sn the background are
the disappointed and desperate for
tunes of Mr. Joseph Wallerstein. ex
i President of the National Associa-;
tlon.
8. That this resolution is arcom-,
panied by charges from the Savannah
post that President Smith (a) acted
in bad faith to the majority of the
Georgia delegation to the national
convention (because he voted against
Wallerstein;) (b) that he has used his
office for political purposes (because
over his individual signature In a card
in which the T. P. A. is not men-;
Uonod from beginning to end. he ex
prersed his judgment that Col.
Candler should be nominated far gov- i
ernor of Georgia;) (c) has acted in di- !

President Smith then states that he
changed bis views in regard to Wal
lersteln. '•because of hts secret per
sonal attack on me.” Then he states
that Mesars. Gardiner, l/ovensteln.
Banner and Zimmer have set out to
“rule the Georgia Division of the T.
P. A ”
He says: “The four gentleman nam
ed have evidently set out to rule the
Georgia Division or to ruin It. You
are aware already of the injury re
sulting from their methods and plans.
Their rule therefore would seem to
mean destruction. For some reason
they Imagine that I atn in their way.
At least, counting me as dead and un
able to defend myself, they feel that
you can be deluded into regarding the ,
fact that I have moved out of Georgia;
as the cause of the havoc which they I
naturally expect to follow their coiy-se
of artion. Now. lam a little bit de- j
termined at times. This Is one or tqe ,
times. Some small post meetings, j
unaer the pestilent Influence of these
gentlemen as their friends, pass a
number of Insincere and discourteous
resolutions. The state board meets
and is also guilty of a breach of pro
priety. Brother Gardiner Is usually
a very courteous and affable gentle
man; he has many qualities that I ad
mire. But in this matter be and Mr.
Dovenstein and Mr. .Zimmer have bit
with the wrong end. It may be their
largest end, but it is certainly not the
wisest one. I cannot therefore re
gard them as safe counselors. If I
conclude at any time before the next
.regular annual convention that the
best interests of the Georgia Division
are to be served by my resignation,
it will be promptly forthcoming.
Meantime, as the constitution leacea
the decision of this matter to my dts
| cretion, these gentlemen would do
1 much better to give their surplus en
ergy to build up the membership ra
ther than to throwing stones at. m?.

j When President Smith began hi*
efforts for the Georgia Division, tha
membership was thirteen; there wo#
one post: and there bad been no signs
of progress for two years; when Pres
ident Smith began his second adminis
tration. there were over eight hundred
member*, six posts (one has been ad
din! since), and tha division carried off
the first prize at the national conven
tion for good work.
2. When the charges made b” the
Savannah Post were first made by a
member of the state board of directors
(the very guntleman about whose ap
pointment Post A. complained., It
was in President Smith’s absence,
and he had great difficulty in learning
either the source or the character of
the attack made upon him. As soon
as he ascertained the facts, he called a
special meeting of the board, faced his
accusers, and proved his innocence so
clearly of i heap charges, that Mr. Wit
man moved and Mr. Oardiner second
ed, the resolutions which were pass'd
by unanimous vote, and a copy order
ed sent to every post- These resolu
tions absolutely cleared President
Smith, commended his work, and by
their nature, put the seal of condem
nation upon the promoters of dis
cord.’
3. At this meeting, July 16 1698,
President Smith tendered his resigna
tion, which the state board of direc
tor refused to accept.. Now the state
board stultifies itself by ‘‘demanding’
President Smith's resignation because
of the charges from which it had un
animously cleared him! M ould any
member of the Georgia division ask
President Smith to forfeit his self
respect by heeding such inconsiderate
action?
Yours fraternally.
,E. E. Smith.
