Prune the electorate in Maryland vote urged in 1905
John Temple Graves reports a Maryland Democratic editorial urging constitutional amendment to limit suffrage amid fears of illiterate black voters influencing politics. The piece argues Republicans may back reform, cites Roosevelt’s 1905 prospects, and critiques constitutional expansion versus strict interpretation. It frames national party divisions and warns Democrats to act decisively.
