Summary

Shepard, a prominent northern Democrat, comments on African American suffrage and legal status in the South. He faults the Republican Party and Administration for abandoning African Americans but does not favor Congressional action to address African American concerns. The exchange of letters and editorials reproduced here present various points of view about what to do about the "Negro problem," especially as it relates to political parties.
