[4], 16pp, caption title as issued. Stitched. Title page mildly dusted, Very Good. Duff and others complain that Rhode Island unjustly excludes naturalized American citizens who lack real property "from the most important political right, that of partaking, as voters, in the choice of their Representatives and other officers." The exclusion "is a degrading brand, setting them apart as a peculiar, unworthy and disqualified class, to be shackled and held in suspicion, and continual objects of insult and derision." Rendering "more marked the stigma" is the fact that "the colored population of this State are allowed to exercise the right of suffrage as freely as it is accorded to any white native citizen of the United States." The Committee of the Rhode Island House of Representatives rejects their petition. Most members of the Rhode Island Assembly, and most voters, "are decidedly opposed to the amendment asked for." Further discussion would only "increase the ill feeling" which already exists. A detailed legal analysis rebuts the notion that such an exclusion from the suffrage is unconstitutional. Cohen 3282.
