, p. 421. "Report of Joint Committee on Reconstruction, Part II. , p. 219.
The Freedmen's Bureau in South Carolina 149 a former slaveholder. Such misconceptions on the part of con- scientious men, as Saxton undoubtedly was, caused needless friction ; when united with dishonesty (as was the case only too often on both sides) it produced an hostility between the races, the effects of which can still be seen.
The relation of the freedmen's bureau to politics was most derogatory to the bureau and d...id much to create antagonism of the races. The bureau was essentially a partisan organization, brought into existence and maintained by a Republican vote in Congress. Many of its officers advocated negro suffrage, 13 and when that policy was adopted, officers and agents of the bureau were directed to spread the good news among the freedmen and to "advise and encourage registration. " They also undertook to protect their wards from "designing persons" who would pre- vent them from registering. 14 In addition to thus protecting the negroes in the exercise of suffrage, some officials of the bureau endeavored to influence their vote.
