1892. Cape Franchise & Ballot Act
"In the 1880s, the Cape Colony African male enjoyed a qualified
franchise, dating back to 1853 [see the CAPE CONSTITUTION of 1853]. In
the Transvaal and the Orange Free State colonies, Africans had no
vote, and in natal nearly all Africans were effectively excluded from
the franchise. [Cecil] Rhodes was unhappy that in many Cape
Constituencies, Africans could be decisive if more of them exercised
this right to vote under the law as it existed. In a speech in
Parliament in June 1887, in which the franchise question was debated,
Rhodes made clear his view: 'The native is to be treated as a child
and denied the franchise. We must adopt a system of despotism, such as
works in India, in our relations with the barbarism of South Africa'
" (Magubane 1996: 108). Thus, the CAPE FRANCHISE & BALLOT ACT of 1892
eventually "raised the franchise qualifications [from £25 to £75] to
the disadvantage of Africans, Coloured and poor whites" (Simons &
Simons 1969: 50).
It was but the first of a series of laws passed during the subsequent
years in order to settle the 'native question' with regard to
franchise. See especially the SEPARATE REPRESENTATION OF VOTERS ACT of
1951

Republics, not colonies ]
