think the purpose manifested in the
papers submitted and the ambition on
the part of the colored people of Vir-
ginia to equal, If not surpass. the
achievements of their race in the
states where such celebrations have
been held in the past should, and

My Dear Mr.. President-A number OF

H. c. STUART,
Governor.
The national government granted the
request of the Negro Historical and
Industrial association by appropriating
S55, 900, which will enable the promot-
ers Of the exposition to make fairly
good showing. But this sum is not
enough to finance the whole scheme.
1t is expected that the state of Vir-
ginia will make an appropriation for
the carrying out Of the plans for the
coming celebration commensurate with
the thrift and industry shown by the
colored people of the state President
Giles B. Jackson is greatly encouraged
by the support which our people In
Richmond are giving toward the ac-
