The question has been asked in some quarters, What would be the effect upon the South, morally, socially, and commercially, of the political supremacy of the negro? Every one in tbe South who had the misfortune to experience that baleful supremacy while it existed would answer, without hesitation, ,that it would involve total and absolute ruin to the South, and :-.-.. infinite and irreparable loss to the whole country. But a large i class at the North, mainly honest and conscientious men, but knowing nothing of the condition of affairs at the South, and profoundly ignorant of the characteristics of the negro, think that he should, of right, rule, wherever his race is in the majority. To this class I shall address myself, and I shall endeavor to prove, by facts cited from the recent history of South Carolina, while under negro rule, how erroneous are their opinions, and how sound are those of the southern people who have had direful experience of negro supremacy. All arguments on such a subject are worthless, unless drawn from induction or based on experience; and we of the South claim that our arguments against the supremacy of the colored citizen stand upon this firm ground. In this article I shall present established facts, leaving my readers to draw their own conclusions. The facts presented are collated from the legislative records of South Carolina, from 1868, when the government of that State was turned over to the negroes and their carpet-bag allies, to 1876, when the State was redeemed from a domination more debasing, more disgraceful, than any which has ever obtained on this continent Every reader is familiar with the means by which this condition of things was brought about.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the contentious issue of whether political power should be granted to the African American majority population in the United States. The author, a former governor of South Carolina, argues that such a shift would be disastrous for the country, citing the failure of Reconstruction-era governments in the South as proof. The book delves into the historical, social, and economic factors that have shaped race relations in the US over time. The author argues that the inherent differences between the white and black races make it impossible for them to live together on equal terms and that any attempt to force such an arrangement will only lead to conflict. The book offers a controversial and thought-provoking perspective on one of the most pressing issues facing American society.
