..There are In the 5cl tyG of R edmond less
than forty thousand negro Inhabitants.
They have four banks, y one 81 Of which
banks has handled more than 81 200, 900,
and $ tho combined CAPITAL u Of oil four
banks runs up into the millions. While,
on the other hand. the negroes In Newt
York, numbering rs, 600; y In philadelphia
30 600; III Pittsburg, numbering
so, 600; In Chicago, numbering more than5l
50, Oo0 all together they do mot own ono T
bank, b This shows. the Inference betWeenS|
the negro In the South and the negro In |
the North. In; otherrword /, It shows that I
tho population Of 40 negroes in r !cl,-S
mond owns more y than five times tho |
possessed by that number OF |
negroes n5the North---yes ton times that /
number-because the negroes In r tchmondtl
own four BANKS and NIL the negroes lin
the North, including Boston, do not own /
ono bank. Does not this speak we'll for |
the negroes in the South
lit IS well that few negroes In the
North opposed this 5ex hlb!t, because they'll
had nothing to, exhibit. They are making
this hue and cry beca use they. hnv5.

excuse for It in advance Then. II they
had something to show. they had nothing
