The regulations which then existed in the several States on the subject of suffrage were of a very conservative character, and left but little, if any, room for men of the most sober opinions to desire a change, even if an inter- ference of the Federal authority had been con- sidered admissible in principle. In a very large majority of the States, the possession of a moderate freehold estate, or its equivalent in personal prop- erty, was required as a qualification for the exercise of the right... of suffrage ; and in not one of them, it is believed, was universal suffrage, as since practised, then known. 1 1 The following were the quali- States of the Union, for the exer- fications prescribed in the principal cise of the right of suffrage, at the 428 LIFE AND TIMES OF MADISON.
