Hoke Smith hns issued an ap peal for the voters of Gsorgln to support tha proposed amendment to ths constitu tion which provides qualification for voters. The state election will bo held next Wednesday week and at that time the amendment will he voted on in con nection with tlie full state ticket noml j Tinted last Juno. There is hut little i doubt about the amendment being car- I t ied by a large majority, hut It will re quire two-thirds of the vote polled. Gov. Smith’s communication to the public is sis' follows: I wish to appeal to you not to over look on October 7th the Importance of voting for the amendment to the Consti tution providing qualifications for tho voters. Tho legisiiit jre by a two-thirds vote bus submitted this question to you. If the Constitutional amendment is not J not adopted you may never have an j other opportunlt> to vote for it. i I had hoped to give all of September j to bringing Hie importance of this am lendment to your attention at public meetings, hut my official duties have rendered this impossible. • A'-iording to the last census there are j 223,073 negroes In the State who could j vote were their taxes paid. We know that I :i large majority of the negroes are ig | norant and purchasable. | If money was now being used to con trol the negro vote an Intolerable con dition would exist In our State. We must support all the Democratic nominee*, but we cannot hope that our political differences will always end with •i primary. MiKHlsHlppl, Louisiana, South Carolina, North Carolina, Alabama and Virginia have adopted similar legislation. The good accomplished in each of these states Is shown by the fact that even those who opposed Its passage would now op pose Its repeal. Senator Lamar of Mississippi, Senator Morgan of Alabama, Senator Tillman of South Carolina, Governor Aycock of North Carotins, Senator Dante! of Vir ginia and Hon T I Simmons of Lout** Dna, each of these patriots has born* ’estlmony for the legislation. Will not the press urge the voters of the state to throw themselves with *e<»| Into support of this measure? Will no! those who are listless see the necessity for organization arid action before It H too lats? 'l‘hls Is a matter of such overshawow- Irig Influent • ui*on our future that 1 can not pl.t re it too strongly upon your minds and hearts. 1 NEAR BEER TAX INJUNCTION REFUSED ATHENS, Oa. —Judge Brand on Saturday refused ihe Injunction of O'Connor versus tin: mayor and coun cil of commerce to prevent the col lection of near beer lux.
