Keep Out the Negro in Louisiana Politics
A Louisiana Democrat associated with Natchez, La., surveys the state political scene at the Laclede, stressing the race question. He describes the proposed constitutional amendment as effectively disfranchising Black voters by imposing education qualifiers, claims it will purify elections, and notes solid Democrat support with expected fusion to oppose Republicans and Populists. He predicts a heated state convention with about 169 delegates and a Democratic majority, while referencing local concerns about past voter coercion. Also mentions a freight sale at A T & SF Ry Co warehouse starting Oct 14.
