The oonnty of Macou, in 1900, bad a white population of 11,431, and a negro population of 673. The total bumbr of Native White illi terate voters was l70oot of a total of 2,319 white voters. The percen tage of illiterate white voters was 20.6. The percentage of illitera cy in tbe State was 18.9.

Such a state .itairsis highly discreditable, aticularly to those aspirants, and eminently uuiuet. towards Bishop Smith. It should be defi nitely ascertained who those can didates are, and they' should be "set down upon" on one of the ftarmost seats of the conference. Neither can we commeud tbe aotioo.of Bishop.A.
