Atlanta, Ga., July 21.- Governo:
Candler, since the Bainbridgo serioi
of lynchings occurred, has been askot
by newspapers in various parts o
the country to give his opinions o1
the race question in the South, an<
in reply to ono of them the Governo
has fully and freely expressed hi!
views as to the cause of the conflict
and the remedy therefor. The Gov
ernor believes the present.lay causI
of the uprisings is the intermeddling
with the relations of the whites an<
blacks in the South by "fools and fa
natics," who know nothing about th<
situation, but he thinks the wholb
trouble dates from the day of oman
cipation. Governor Candler beliove
that a r rioted suffrago will remed3
the evil; that a ballot be given onl
to the intelligent negro. As to th<
disposition to be made of the larg<
percentage of illiterate negroes th<
Governor makes no su -gestion. Th<
Governor begins his paper by refer
ring to emancipation, contrasting th(
treatnient of negroes by the whit(
people of the South before the wal
to that of the "carpet-baggers" im
mediately after. lie says:
"Before the ballot was thrust int
the hands of the negro unprepare(
for it, and utterly ignorant of itt
sanctity and of the responsibilities o:
citizenship, notwithstanding he wat
ia lavv, he wais hiaiiipy aiid well Coil
tented1 to occupy that. subordinatt
place in society to which his natur(
and his condition assigned him. Bu1
after his omancipation came his on
franchisement, and with his enfian
chisomont came a hoard of carpet
baggers, penniloss adventurers, with.
out principle or patriotism, who tool
charge of him when his former mas
tor and protector, with whom ho hat
lived for generations on the mnsi
friendly and often oven on affection
ate terms, was decit izenize. 1 by th(
partisan reconstruction laws.
"Those carpet-baggers, calling
themselves Republicans, but reall)
only a band of marandlers held to
gether by the cohesive power of pub
lic plunder, swarmed all over t.h
South like the locusts ini Egypt oi
old, and falsely taught the negroe
that the Southern wvhito men wor<
solely responsible for t heir enslave.
ment and were their worst and onl~
o nemies, and that, therefore, it was
~~~aiduty and their interest to vot(
~~'~'~Lm and their party, an(
against .;& bn they woeinfao
oppose evra yhn they wor<
of and favor ev'd' haete
opposed to-in a word;~.feeo
They taught them tha fred
meant immunity from toil, thusli
erty meant license and that tam
were the "wards of the nation," ant
would be protected by tihe Genera
Government, wvhoso bayonets glis
toned in every hamlet, whether thiey
were right or wrong.
"These evil teachings had but lit
tIe permanent effect upan the grown
up negroes, but upon tile children
the generation wvhich has grown tc
manhood since that time, the effec
has been most baleful. These wor
the prime causes of the alienation o
the nlegro.
"A more immediate cause is thi
perpetual intermeoddling with the re
lations of the races in the South b~
fanatics and fools who know nothinf
aboat the situation. Tihey call towr
meetings and discuss imaginary
wrongs of tile Southern negro wvhict
do not exist, and denounce the South
ern whito' people for crimes they
have not committedl; they publish ii
tile newspapers greatly oxagorates
accounts of such crimes as are comn
mnitted against thoe negro in the South
and omit any notice of the crimet
against thle white woman which pro
yoked tihe retaliation; they writo in
cendiary letters to turbulent negroei
all over tihe South, advising them t<
arm themselves with Winchestoi
rifles, and for every guilty rapist
who pays the penalty for his crime
to shoot down the first two white
men h'! meete. Thousauds of such
letters have beeni written to Georgia
in the last three months. By such
methods they call into existence the
very state of things they pretend to
deplore, i condition of affairs that.
did not exist, and never would have
existed, but for then, and their sense
less incendiary conduct."
Governor Chandler says the inter
meddlors of the North do not repro
sent a respectable minority-, and that
the lawless and criminal negroes of
the South constitute less. Ho con
tinues:
"A few abandoned, reckless, crimi
r nal negroes are responsible for all
the rapes and lynchings that have
occurred, and their influence on those
around them is deplorably bad and
far reaching. Still it is true that
rape, the crime which nino tim es out
of ten is the cause, immediate or re
mote, of lynching, is as much do.
plored by the better class of negroes
as by the better class of white men.
But as because some negroes commit
rape, the whole race suffers, so be.
cause some white men 13 ntch ravish
ers all the white people of the South
are abused.
"It is a singular fact, too, that the
Pharisaical fanatics who have most
to say about 'Apaches,' 'Southern
barbarians,' etc, always stress the
atrocity of the lynching, but 1 have
never yet heard of one of them say
ing or doing an. thing to discourage
the crime which provoked it, In
deed in some cases, instead of de
nouncing his crime, they have as
sailed the character of the victim of
the brute's lust., which not only en
courages bad negroes, but exasperates
the friends of Southern womanhood.
"Another and a continually pro
sent cause which contributes to race
friction is corrupt politics. As is ad
mitted by all candid men, the ballot
was put in the hand of the Southern
negro when he was utterly unpre
pared for it. He regarded it as only
an article of merchandise, to be bar
tered away to the man who would
pay him the most for it, whether a
drink of whiskey or a dollar or two.
In many places his vote, while not a
majority, is a balance of power.
Hence unscrupulous men of all par
ties contend for this vote and hug
the negro around the polls and drink
whiskey with him. 1le is forgotten
after the election, and, like a spoiled
child, becomes resentful and vindic
tive. This brings clashes with tho
wvhites."
In spieaking of the remedy GAov
ornior Candler says:
" In Georgia for a generation thero
has been scarcely a negro between
O and 8 years' of age who has not
had access to a free school. As a
conisequenco illiteracy has decreased
among them from 85 per cent in
1870 to 40 per cent in .1899 and yet
it is a startling fact that crime
among them has increased in about
the same p)roportion that illiteracy
has dlecreased. There is, however,
mnother sort of education which in
timie would greatly relieve the situa
tion. 'This is moral education,
which must be acqluired at the fami
ly hearthstone, and in the churches
and Sunday.schools and by the daily
contact of the inferior race with the
saperior for years and even for gen
orations.
"The greatest crime ever perpe
trated, not only against American
idleas and institutions anid human
liberty, but against the So'uthorii
negro, was wvhen, without proper ed
ucation, lie was clothed with all the
rights and p)rivilegos and resp)onsi
bilities of citizenship.
"We need a remedy immediate in
its effects, andl this remedly can eonly
be found in a qualified suffrage.
The ballot must only be entrusted to
the virtuous and i'ntelligent. Now
many men vote who are intelligent,
b)ut not virtuous, amid many more
vote who are virtuous, but iiot intel.
vet ot. Restrict the suffrage to those
having both these qualifications, and
one of the greatest causes of irrta
tion will be removed. The race
prejudice, at least in politics, will be
eliminated, and the happiness and
the material and moral conditionof
t,be Southern negro will be greatly
hiancnel,"
