Whether these acts will stand in the courts has not been determined.

Missouri and Tennessee have recently given national suffrage to women, and Oklahoma has given full suffrage.
The negro has been practically eliminated as a voter, but the decision of the Supreme Court in the Oklahoma case may make necessary the revision of some state constitutions.

Enough restrictions remain, however, to make white supremacy reasonably secure for the present.

As the aim is one upon which the white South is practically agreed, some other expedients will be devised if those now in use must be discarded.

There is absolutely no desire for a wholesale restoration of the negro vote, though, of course, Republican conventions denounce the disfranchising acts and constitutional amendments.
