According to a statement issued
day or two ago by State Bank
Examiner Holleman the state
banks of South Carolina are in
better condition than ever before
in their history. The statement,
OF course, does not include ma.
tional banks, which are not under
the supervision OF the state au-
thorities, but of the federal gov
ernment. There is every reason
to believe, however, that the ma
tioIal banks are also enjoying an
era of unprecedented prosperity.

ing". He declared that the men
should be considered innocent
until proved to be guilty
He said he had no doubt the
soldiers were responsible for the
outrage at Brownsville. He de-
clared that negro troops should
not have been sent to Brow wns-
Vile.
Continuing, he said: "The
whole issue involved is one OF

other man for the position the
negroes in the South have taken
on the question of negro rights.
He gave recognition to Booker

of the administration on the so

speech in the Senate last Satur-
day was characterized by his
usual ability and vehemence,
but much that he said was in

signally failed to show that the

on the race problem.

CONFERENCE OF COLORED LEAD
ERS

ers of South Carolina will be
held in Columbia next week
convening on Wednesday and
remaining in session three days.
AS to the purpose of the gather
ing, the Rev. Richard Carroll
OF Columbia, the moving spirit
OF the conference, says:
They hope to accomplish
some good for the race in this
State by calling the le ,ders to.
gether in conference TO discuss
the most vital questions that
concern the negro. No good will
come TO the negro that will not
directly or indirectly benefit the
white man also. The strained
relations o. the races in the
South and the condition of labor
give the best reasons for such a
meeting"
Booker ashington and other
distinguished men of the race
from outside the state are ex
pected to be present. Prominent
white citizens have also been in
vited to attend and to address
the conference, among them
Gov. Ansel and Ex-Governor
Hayward. The proceedings of
the meeting will no doubt be
watched with much interest
1t remains to be seen what good
will be accomplished.
