BALLOT REFORM.
The Telegraph has frequently urged
that -the adoption of the Australian
eystom of Toeing in this state is much
to be desired. It would require a cer
tain degree of Intelligence of the voter.
If adopted In its original form, It
would hare the effect of selling up a
low educational test. The voter would
bo Obliged 4o know at least enough' to
road the names of the candidates.
This law has been adopted, in one
ronu or another, by «nuol w >uu ouu<»
of the Union, including several of the
Southern states, and everywhere has
had satisfactory results. But some
states are taking even further steps
to put a premium on intelligence In the
voter and thus raise the standard of
suffrage. Four years ago this was
done In the new constitution of Missis
sippi, which made the state safe-
against the overwhelming mass of ne
gro ignorance by providing than “ev
ery qualified elector shall he able to
read any section of the constitution
of Ibis state, or he shall be able to un
derstand (tie same when read to hlui,
or to give a reasonable interpretation
thereof.”
The next movement In the same di
rection occurred “way down east.”
The legislature of Maine submitted to
the people a proposition to amend the
constitution by a provision which,
while not denying the right of suffrage
to illiterates already exercising it, de
barred in future any man who coulu
not read and write. This proposition
was voted upon In ISUli and was easily
carried.
In 1803 the educational test was ap
plied lu a novel manner by the legisla
tive of Michigan. An appeal was made
for the passage of an act giving wo
men the right to vote in municipal,
township and Tillage elections, and It
was granted on the condition that the
suffrage should be exercised only by
such women as could read. This act
was subsequently annulled by the su
preme court on the ground that the
proposed extension of suffrage to wo
men could be made ouly through an
amendment to 'the constitution, but no
criticism was passed upon the' intelli
gence quuLhcution.
This year the voters of California
arc to express themselves upon * an
amendment to the constitution which
provides that no person not already a
citizen (except those over 00 years of
age and those suffering from physical
disability) shall be permitted to exor
cise tho privilege of an elector who
cannot read the constitution in the
English language and write his mme.
The proposition was carried through
the legislature without difficulty, aud
it la so generally supported by the
press that there is every indication or
its ratification at the polls next No
vember.
The movement promises good results.
There Is too little Intelligence aud too
little conscience in voting, aud this is
no doubt largely due to the feeling on
the part of many that intelligence and
conscience arc helpless sod useless in
the face of a mass of voters so Igno
rant that they have ao conception of
the questions their rotes decide. This
is particularly true In the South.
The restriction upon the suffrage
which the Australian system Imposes
is healthy for the state and not unjust
to Individuals where H hi rosy to ac
quire at least the rudiments of an ed
ucation.
THE NEGRO IN NEW JERSEY.
Ingly they drew up a notice to that ef
fect, took measures to enforce It, and
served it upon their undesirable col
ored neighbors. The latter were given
a week in which to disappear, and did
not ask for more. They went. Tile
dispatch states that twelve years ago
the farmers of Franklin Park were
compelled to take the same step.
If the white men of any Southern
county or town were to do precisely
the same thing that has been (lone by
these white farmers ot New Jersey,
the newspapers of the great Northern
city would not record the event In n
brief news dispatch and pass It by
unnoticed. We may be sure that much
space and many headlines wc.itd bo
employed in giving the details of the
outrage. And the editorial columns
would thunder against the crime
against humanity and civilization of
the seml-barburous whites.
Why tills difference 7 The negro
problem Is not more serious in Now
Jersey than In the South. On the con
trary, it is there a matter of small Im
portance. The negroes nre few, the
whiTca many and the state rich. Ail
the milder methods which nre urged
for adoption In the South are there
easily available. The negroes can be
educated and will have the constant
example for their guidance of lue peo
ple very much more in numbers liian
they who, we are assured, arc very
much better than those of the South—
more godly, more fully civilized, and,
moot Important of all. untainted with
the treason of the L'oufedo'.tcr and
unaffected i*7e debasing Influences
of slavery. Under these circumstances.
It seems to us that tne negroes nre en
titled to at least as muen forbearance
and help from their white neighbors
as they receive in Georgia. We occa
sionally lynch a negro down ll.ls way
when be has committed ,i particularly
atrocious crime, but we do not hold
the entire colored population responsi
ble for his evil deed and expel them
from their homes.
NEED NOT BE AFRAID.
A telegram to the New York Herald
describes a condition of affairs In a
New Jersey community which ought
to be instructive to those of its readers
who, knowing nothing of the negro
problem In the South, are yet disposed
to be bsishly critical of the Southern
white people. No reader of Eastern
newspapers during recent years can
fail to have been impressed with the
extraordinarily Urge proportion of the
Crimea of. violence, especially those
against women, have been committed
by the small negro popuUtton of New
Jersey. In that state, more than any
other of that region, the negroes have
penetrated Into rural communities and
found homes on farms, a fact which
perhaps accounts for the fact to which
we have referred. It has come to pass
that whenever an especially heinous,
unnatural crime la committed In such
a community the public mind at once
jumps to the conclusion that it moat
bare been committed by a negro.
The Herald’s telegram refers to the
measures taken by the white people
of Franklin Park, a New Jersey farm
ing village, to protect tbemselTm
against the negroes. They organised
a law and order league, to which the
wealthiest and moat Intelligent men
of the coomaoAy belonged, considered
the subject carefully, and came to the
conclusion that there was but one
'vtaedy—the negroes mutt go. Accord-
It seems to U3 that the Atlanta Con
stitution Is too easily alarmed. Chair
man Tom Carter of the Republican na
tional committee having written an
article la which he says that “bimet
allism must be restored on a safe and
permanent basis," our contemporary
fears the Republican party Is about
to steal the free silver cry from Itself
and the. Populists. The statement
made by Mr. Carter, it says, “is not'
significant standing by Itself, but,
taken in connection with the tone and
temper of some of the moat prominent
Republican newspapers and of some of
the shrewdest Republican leaders, it
Is of Immense significance. It means
nothing less than this—that If the
Democrats fall to carry out tlielr plat
form pledge to make both gold and
silver the standard money of the coun
try, the Republicans will take the Issue
away from them la the next cam-
| pnJgn anil use It to build up nnd
strengthen tho Republican party,
which, until the recent collapse of tho
Democratic financial policy, seemed to
be on Its last legs.”
There Is something almost laughable
In our contemporary’* panic.. The
Democratic party has broken Its back
over the sliver question, and writhes
helplessly, while the people who bid
trusted It look on contemptuously—not
because it has failed to keep a promise
lu this connection, for U has not fnlle.d,
but bccattso a majority of its repre
sentatives in congress persist In trying'
to do an impossible thing. The Dem
ocratic party having reduced Itself to
this condition, tho Constitution thinks
the Republican party is eager to break
its back in Its turn In the same fash
ion. We bare no acquaintance with
Mr. Carter and know nothing of his
Intentions, but we ore perfectly certain
the Republican party Is going to do
nothing ot the kind. It will continue
as long as possible io use the silver
craze to block the way of tariff reform,
as K (s doing now, but It doesn't share
the craze. It will ‘restore bimetallism
on a safe and permanent basis,” If R
can—R would not be a party of Amer
leans If It did not desire to do so—hut
it will not open the mints to tho free
coinage of stiver at the present ratio.
The largest body of monometslUsts in
this country Is mode up of those who
demand the' free coinage of silver,
knowing that under existing condl
tlons It would result In stiver mono
metallism.
Our contemporary speaks of the
Democratic “platform pledge to make
both gohl and Silver the standard
money of 4be country," but there is no
such pledge. The platform says that
“we bold to the use of both gold and
sliver as the standard money of the
country," but this is, at the most, only
a promise to do the most that way be
done to make both kinds of money
standard. “We bold to the use" is a
phrase about equivalent to “we favor
the use.” This pledge or promise
would certainly be violated If the
Democratic party did anything which
resulted In making silver only the
standard.
In Rs discussion of this question the
Constitution hi* Sn effect admitted
that the free coinage of Silver would
result in a premium on gold. A pre
mium on gold would mean that silver
was being used as the measure
standard of value. Then bow can it
pretend that the demand for free coin,
age la in accordance with a platform
favoring bimetallism and the double
standard? •
profoundly the business of (he people,
their industries, their comfort. If the
tariff could be arranged ou purely sci
entific principles, with the sole pur
pose of raising tho necessary revenue
at the smallest expense to the people,
that would be well, hut the arrange
ment should be made by (be repre
sentatives of the people In co. gross.
It 1* better that the tariff should be
Imperfect, even oppressive, than that
the control of congress over taxation
should be Interfered with.
Nevertheless (here have been fre
quent propositions, more or leas defi
nite, that the regulation of (he tariff
should be turned over to a non-parti
san commission. It will be remem
bered that In 1883 a commission was
aotually employed to revise the tariff
und reported a complete bill, and It
will also be remembered that congress
paid not (he slightest attention to the
report, wiping out all bjit about 3 per
cent, of the 20 per cent, reduction of
the existing rates which tho commis
sion's bill embodied. In spite of this
failure, the Idea has not liecn aban
doned, but has taken the more radical
form, that (he proposed commission
be empowered not only to determine
what rates of duty are best, but to en
act them into law. The lute Senator
Plumb was an earnest advocate of
the plan, and It Is also favored by Sen
ator Cullom. The latest and most un
expected convert to It, however. Is
Senator Morgan of Alabama, who Is
credited with having elaborated a
scheme by which the secretary of the
treasury trad four other persons, two
of them residing east and two west
duo MiasissujFpi tsvur, oimli take
the matter of tariff revision entirely
out of the hands of congress.”
The man who favors this scheme
must have entirely despaired of (be
capacity of congress to deal with the
tariff question, or he would not pro
pose that the representatives of the
people surrender the prerogative which
Is of the greatest Importqacc In gov
ernment. There Is much in the con
duct of the present and past con
gresses to provoke despair, but the
case Is not hopeless. Congress Is
shamefully subject to the influence of
men whom tho tariff does not tax but
who profit, by It. but Its tendency dur
ing recent years bas been to throw off
that influence. When the reform of
tho tariff Is once fairly started, It will
not stop until the tariff Is as perfect
as a commission cf experts could
make it.
laws, to gain the experience In this
branch of banking of which they have
been deprived for thirty years. They
believe this can be done without se
riously limiting the good effects which
they expect from an increased cur
rency.
. They are not unreasonable, and we
think the advocates ot unconditional
repeal ought to meet, them half way.
Certainly a compromise that will do
away with the tax, broaden the basis
of banking and .ncrease the currency
whenever an (ncrease Is needed is to
bo preferred to a failure on the part
of congress to do anything. If expe
rience shall show that further legisla
tion Is necessary, it can much more
easily be obtained If the tax is already
repealed and the state bank system
even In partial operation.

The primary for the election of del-
egate.-i to the gubernatorial convention
from Btmow county has been called
for the 12tb of May—twelve weeks,
lacking threo days, before the meet
ing of tho convention. The delegates,
after their clecaon, will have plenty
of time for an extended European
tom- before being called upon to per
form their duties.
Entirely without reference to the In-
of tho t.tvn foi* gov.
eroor, tbo Telegraph regards the fix
ing of so curly a dale for the primary
as very unfortunate. A primary which
doc* not lu U* results reflect the will
of tho people Is, under the circum
stances In which the Democratic [*my
Had* itself, worse than useless. It Is
un absolute wrong to the voters, who
have a right to an equal voice in de
termining the questions at issue.
If the purpose had been, la choosing
tho day for tbo primary, to hit upon
that upon which it would he least con
venient (or the farmer* to stop their
work and go to the voting places, tbo
choice must inevitably have fallen on
day about the middle of May. It Cs
then that the farmers are busiest,
whvtv they are obhged to employ every
hour Ip tlie.r fields, to get their crops
well started. To set tho primary at
this panlclor tlmo Is therefore prac
tically to (Tuny many fanners their
right to parrloimte in the action of the
party, by requiring a sacrifice of Line
which they cannot afford to make.
It Is among the fanners that the
party bos lost strength during recent
year. It is to them that the Populist
appeal is made. Is It not, therefore,
very unwise lo give them good cause
for complaint when there is not the
slightest good reason for doing so?
The primary ought to have been de
layed until the crops are, laid by—till
July.
Bartow is one of the counties which
bas been understood to be safe for

It necessary to take “snap judgment"
after this fashion, at the risk of seri

that 'they find the drift of popular sen-

Telfair has not been very noisy, but
she has given voice to a sentiment
which strikes iter out of the 100 coun

the event Judge Crisp should deter
mine to enter the senatorisl race for

Hon. Dudley M. Hughes of Twiggs

race for congress from this, the Third,

aspirant, but In consideration of bis
peculiar qualifications no worthier suc
cessor of Judge Crisp could be found
In the Third congressional district. He
Is, In all that the word Implies, a man.
A sterling Democrat, who 1s thor
oughly in sympathy with and under
stands the needs of the mosses.
Honest, honorable and true and a man
who has the courage of his convictions,
lie Is modest and unassuming, but in
tbe discharge of what he conceives to
be Ills duty he Is absolutely fearless
as to personal consequence*, and In
mental ability he has few superiors
In Georgia. He has served with marked
distinction In the Georgia senate, but
has never desired nor sought other
political preferment. Mr. Hushes has
hosts ot friends not only In the Third
district, but all over Georgia, and If be
can be Induced to enter the race, any
one who may see fit to "cross * words"
with him in toe political arena will
find a “foeman worthy of his steel.”
