The Few Bank Movement.

There has been a movement for some
time 10 establish another bank in this
,owu, bu, no,hing definite could be
ascertained until las. Saturday, when
some capitalists from Sumter paid .
visit 20 Manning. and after conferins
with number OF business men ,oseth-
er with prominent farmers, the matter
took such shape that there !s proba.
biiiry Of the new bank being eSta abiiSh-
ed. The organization OF another bank
is not 10 the spirit OF opposition 70
those already here, but 10 afford the
town aad county with more banking
accommodations; the two banks here
are accommodating and are doing a
splendid business, both enjoying The
confidence OF the public, but The towa
end county IS developing rapidly and
the more banking facilities we can
have the more business will be done
here. Jas, when the new bank viii
begin operations we 90 no, know. but
from wha: we can gather from those IN
cereS.ed i, will be organized IN the near
future. The capital stock will be So
OOQ, TO be increased if necessary. Those
who have the matter 10 hand are back
ed up with all the financial help that
will be needed. end We believe 1t will
have the effect OF bringing TO this town
q great deal more business The day
is st hand where the farmers and the
merchants will need ali the banking
facilities they can get 70 put the coun-
try upon cash basis, and with three
substantial banks in this town, there Is
nc good reason why the bulk OF the
business should have 20 go elsewhere
for Gnancial accommodations. We
think too, that the competition as q
-esu!, Of more banks will in time make
money cheaper and iu q number OF
ways prove beneficial 70 the county a,
large.
With good banking facilities there Is
hope for manufacturing industries and
with them come az Increase OF popula-
tion Manning is now on the upward
move and all o; Us stand ready TO wei
come new comers who desire 10 alG !n
the development.

Manning is now io about the same
Quaodary that Baltimore is. with rsgare
10 the race question. In Baltimore the
race question has taken the form OF 40
Inhibition for negroes 70 own or occupy
property in z certain Q uarter OF the city,
and the matter will likely go 70 the
courts. as the Inhibition was made by
legal ordinance. In Manning the schoo!
trustees have sold .he school house for
negrHes and propose moving the cid
graded school building 10 lot recently
purchased for colored school purposes.
The lot proposed for the site adjoins
what is known as Weinberg Town.
and the owner of that property objects
10 having the school mouse so near him.
claiciog that it will inlu-e cne :a!ue OF
the property, as it is about the only Sec
ton OF the town whe.e negroes do not
own property. he offers to give TO the
trustees lot at some distance from the
site selected, and il he and the trustees
cannot agree ne viii! be forced 70 seek j
relief from the courts. It is hoped tha;
a satisfactory arrangement can be et
fected, as we should not want 10 have
here anything which would possibly stir
up any race clashes. Weinberg town
q. present is negro quarter, bu, the
time is coming whea this property will
be in demand for the whites, ard L

have no doubt, tend TO keep white peo-

we think the trustees will consider the |
