But he goes on to say that all of the rest were disfranchised. Now. I look at his own list of figures contained in that report and I find that he declares the number of voters nativeborn and naturalized are 382.713. Is that much of a disfranchisement? He saysthere shouldbe 376.501 that ought to vote according to the provisions of the fourteenth amendment and to his own figures. for I give his own arithmetic. and I turn back to the preceding page and he shows that there were in 1878 382.713 voters. froua which he deduces the remarkable calculation that 136.859 were disfranchised. when he just asserted on the same page thatand I ask gentlemen to notice ithe says 105.009 are disfranhished.
