Copeland Mer. Co. Remember the Voting Contest! “Ashore” at Our Nqxt Election Bv Jamks Callaway. There were some during the campaign of 1906 who opposed this disfranchisement movement, pre ferring our ideal system ot a dom tcralic white primary, a system for which Virginia and North Car olina would willingly paid millions of dollars, at the samo time fear ing the supreme court would do clar.- uncon titulior.al that device k lown as the “grandfatherclause” And if that clause was deleared unconstitutional and President Taft said in his 4th of March mes sages that it would be so declared then confusion \Vonld arise, as all educated negroes could vote and and certain whites could not. But on the stump all over Geor gia M”. Smith assured the people that no white man would he cut off from the ballot, He declared his disfranchisement bill was the white man’s protection. Afer this bill became unsatisfac tory to its authors A new regis tration law was passed by the Le gilatureas one of Governor Smith’s “policies.” At the time it was thought it was done for the purity of ttie ballot and to cut oil' negro voter who could qualify. Consequently not much opposi tion was manifested at the time. But the real object in view Mr. Smith himself has revealed. In his reply to the Atlanta drum mers who called on him in a body nt his Peachtree street home a tew days since, the ex Governor said : “Only fraudulent balloting de feated us last year, and there are now regisruticn laws now. These n )W laws ni mih no man can regis ter falsely without laying himself ' open to every imminent pun h jment. He will be ashore rt mr elections next year for the new registration laws requiring one to register six months before election Will iNwJint buying nf votes.” All ti'is seems to nullify the do elaratii ii that the disfranchise ment net,'was for the white man's benefit and protection. But who are the whitemen whom tin* new six month’s law will affect The white voters of the cities? No, for they are of easy access t<> the registry books. What class )f men will it cut off? Those re mote from tlio registration ivj. is tu r f Why was tbits done? Because it was the farmer vote, tie* e nnin folks, who defeated Governor Smith. The towns were more f, > him The farmer vote elect td ,1 e e Brown. Although it was proclaimed that no white man would be disfran chised under the disfranchisement bill, yet a sinister measure wai put through the Legislature to practically disfranchise the farm er vote of Georgia. These farm ers, remote from the registry hooks, seldom in town, no cam paign on hand to incite them to register, are the ones whem the new law will strike down. Thev are the £nes. as ex-Governor Sn ith says, who “will he ashore at out election next year.” Why driv. them ashore? Why set a trap to catch thorn, so that they be left ashore. Because the farmer volt defeated Governor Smith. The ex-Governor says something about the new six months law will pre vent buying of votes “A votei would have too much time t change, you know,”said Mr. Smith ts he winked his other eye at Mr. tveeley, tLe leader of the Atlanta hammers. But these farmer vot is were not purchased that defeat ed Governor Smith. These far mers acted like free men. So the cities and towns are to carry the next election, the far mers practic illy distranchised by the new law passed in the interest of the big cities and towns. Thic control by big cities and towm was a feature of Mr. Smith's lasi campaign The order, known at ‘ Rule No 8.” adopted by a parti sau committee in Governor Smith interest, exposed the grasp for au toeratic power, as mnoli a weak ness with Governor L mith. ns love of siusvtion and the limelight is a disease with Dr. Broughton. Governor B • >wn recommended tha< the L gislature annul the new six months la w and restore the old registration law, so as not to disfranchise the farmer vote, but the Legislature, under other in fluences, saw lit to continue the new liw so as to give city and town voters advantage over their country cousins —Macon Tele graph . \ Dearness Cannot be Cured •» by loe.il applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumljerling sound of imperfect hearing and when it is entirely closed, deafness is the result, and unless the inflamation can lie taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be de stroyed ferever; nine cases out of are caused by catarrh, which is nothing* but an inflamed condition of the mucous sur faces.
