It was not directed against ignorance orcorrup( tion, but against the eolor of the voters skin. Its purpose was to extinguish the negro as a factor in * State polities and to perpetuate eon' trol in the hands that now hold it. The purpose was outrageous, the j._ methods tyrannical and arbitrary, the effects wicked and demoralizing. If the party that dominated the LegIjg islaturc had enacted laws?the straightout Australian ballot laws, Dr for example?calculated simply to protect the people against ignorance e and corruption without reference to n' race or color, no good citizen of any party would have had the right or ^ V?>V/ IIIVIJIIIIUVMI iu Ul'&U JJIUIU* 11 IS T11C )0 privilege, if not the sacred fduty, of society to protect itself l>ut these j laws were not intended to promote (S any moral end.
