Mr. Tatt. Ever Roosevelt with'att , this bossism.and wielding of his big stick, we do not recall a time wherein he has taken pergonal - interference . in state matters, and especially in the open. But here comes Mr. Taft, coordmg.to' accounts published in the leading daily papers, making pen personal interference in -the election to be held in Maryland in a snort while on the disfranchisemenc of the negrp, by writing letters to the republican leaders of that State demanding that they defeat the measure and.-also writing a letter to the Baltimore News denouncing the amendment as a disgrace to civilization and is a "gross injustice and is a violation of the spirit of the Fifteenth Amendment?' ' In order that our Southern people might further understand the situa tion the Maryland' people are suffer ing practically the same trouble that ngnn Carolina was prior to 1900 wuiuramj .tYmenament is practically the same as ours and all the rest of the Southern States and now they are trying to protect them- selves-and good government by get ting rid of the common negro voters i whose only consideration during election times is to get the most possible for his vote.
