Alabama suffrage plan shocks with poll tax and disqualifications
The Alabama constitutional convention debates a suffrage proposal that would exclude most black voters and many whites, imposing a poll tax for those under forty five and an educational requirement. It also bars voters lacking land or property taxes, and disqualifies those with crimes, vagrants, and vote sellers, presenting suffrage as a privilege for the thrifty and respectable. The piece notes partisan blindness and contrasts with northern state norms while discussing labor leader Gompers and a nonpartisan view of McKinley’s administration.
