Show BANK OF SALT LAKE IM reading over the list of depositors po of the above mentioned bank which closed its doors on the of the past month we were somewhat surprised to see that quite a number of our race were included in the same and that they had their hard earned savings in we have that rotten institution no desire nor any inclination whatever to speak of president james H bacon in a derogatory manner neither have we any desire to do mr bacon a wrong or an injustice nor any one else but we have been informed that banker bacon with all the hates the negro race intensity of his being and that he would rather associate with the very devil himself and all of his angels rather than to allow one member of our race to touch the hem of his garments it is said that he as president of the sanitarium issued strict orders to the effect that under no circumstances would he allow or permit colored people to bathe or to become frequenters of that institution now if it is true that banker bacon entertains such a strong dislike and a hatred for our race why in the world did they continue to patronize this negro hater the only reason that we can assign for the same is simple and we believe a blind man can see the same i e that banker bacon has been one of the high priests of the g 0 p of utah for a great many years and as such he has worn a charm which has fascinated and bewitched a great many members of our race who have resided in this fair and beautiful state during the past four or five years it appears that one of our brilliant editors got caught in president ba cons trap and it is said that he squeezed like a stuck pig and used a great many cuss words when he realized that it was impossible for him to escape from the same with his golden dollars |
