Negro population and education in the United States
The article notes that Negroes comprise about 11 percent of the U S population, with 80 percent living in rural areas. Mulattoes form from a ninth to a sixth, depending on locality, and literacy has risen but remains uneven across states. Population rose from 4.4 million in 1860 to 8.8 million in 1900 while leaders are often mulattoes. Hampton Institute records show no clear high-grade advantage for mixed blood. The piece also includes social anecdotes about Mrs. Poultney Bigelow and a Prince of Wales gift, reflecting broader cultural remarks.
