This Is a queer world Is it not News 1 comes that exJudge George L Christian Chris-tian of Richmond Va one of the best known and ablest men In the city failed to secure a nomination as a delegate dele-gate to the Constitutional convention standing eleventh on a ticket of fifteen fif-teen This weakness is attributed entirely en-tirely to the fact that Judge Christian employs a negro stenographer This In IODUC wiia uiuut tin mm in UH pans 01 the city In some sections wagons bearIng bear-Ing the placard If you want a negro stenographer vote for George L Christian Chris-tian were driven along the streets and especially near the voting booths Now if there had been no war and the negro had belonged to Judge Christian and had done his work merely for board and clothes that would have been all 1 right I and doubtless the Judge would have beeen triumphantly elected J The Southern people ought to grow I out of all that foolishness
