Louisiana. Lot of 2 bonds, includes $100, $1000 Bond. Issued. Redeemed. PAID Perforated at signatures. Both signed by murphy foster as Governor. Very Fine. 3 pieces. Foster was a Louisiana politician who served two terms as the 31st Governor of Louisiana from 1892 to 1900. Foster adopted the Louisiana Constitution of 1898, which effectively disfranchised the black majority, who comprised most of the Republicans, thus leading to Louisiana's becoming essentially a one-party (Democratic) state for several generations and excluding African Americans from the political system. This situation of discriminatory political exclusion was not corrected until after enforcement of constitutional rights by the federal government under the Voting Rights Act of 1965.
