the whites have no serious fears Of disturbance
if the negroes arc not prcclpltated into riots

RADICAL FLARE Up IN Richmond mass
meeting was held yesterday in Richmond.-
About one thousand blacks were present
Speeches were made declaring want OF conf
dence in the Republican State Central Com
mittee, as not being in favor of justice and
equal rights to all. Several white and coIored
speakers addressed the crowd, denouncing the
carpet bagger5 as needy politicians, who had
come to Virginia to make their living off the
blacks, and who did not intend that the blacks
should have Office. The case Of the blacks in
the Georgia Legislature was brought up as q
warning The black speakers were particularly
severe on carpet baggers, calling them dirty
trash and scoundrels, and charging them with
intending to betray the blacks The Secretary
of the State Central Committee obtained a
hearing for five minutes in denial Of the charges
against that body, but the resolutions were
passed by reclamation.
