Go Early Tuesday, Nov. 8th and Vote. COUNTRY PARTY RACE THE STATESMAN COLORADO LABOR SHALL BE FREE THE JOURNAL OF THE STATE VOL. XI. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1904. NO. 5. When you go to the polls to vote, all you have to do to assist in getting good government for Nation and State, is to write the one word "REPUBLICAN" in the blank space at the top of your ballot---Thus "The Rebublican Party is the Ship, all Else is Sea" Roosevelt the Champion of Right and Justice--The Candidates Compared. In these times when there is so much talk about the doubtful states giving their electoral vote to Parker, it is gratifying to be assured that the Negro voter remains loyal to the party of liberty and progress. Fred Douglas once said "The Republican party is the ship, all else is sea" and if anything, this political appraisement of party's, as concerns the Negro is more true today then when if fell from the lips of this great American. As was pointed out in a previous letter, the effort to corner the Negro vote for the Democrats, however well conceived and with whatever of good and noble purpose, resulted in the most natural possible way, which is a larger, more loyal and ever increasing support of the Republican party. Although the issues are not so strictly defined in Colorado or so unblushingly paraded in the eyes of the public as they are in Maryland, the principle behind them and which gives them life is one and the same in both places. There is many a Tillman and Gorman in this grand and beautiful state, who only needs the encouragement which a knowledge of political power would give them to come out as bitterly against the Negro as even those high-priests of prejudice and injustice could wish. It seems all right and perfectly sensible for men to vote one way or another according to the issues or their individual perforances, but until sentiment and conditions affecting the Negro change, he must remain an exception to this rule and by voting solidly for the Republican ticket secure and retain for himself the protection of the most powerful and progressive organization known to modern times. Ex-Governor Brown of Maryland in a recent speech used the argument that if Roosevelt was elected the Negro Cummings of Baltimore, who made a speech seconding his nomination at Chicago, would be given a position and I HEREBY VOTE A STRAIGHT for that reason, if no other he should be defeated. It is to just such trivial and flimsy pretexts as this that the party of which Parker and Davis are the standard bearers, is driven to show, even a pretense of a cause and reason for its existence. The Democratic nominees are both excellent gentlemen no doubt the one a gifted legal light—the other a wealthy and fatherly old philanthropist, who is quite an honor to the common-wealth of W. Va. But compare them for a moment with the Republican candidates and from whatever point of view, how utterly tame and in significant do they appear. Highly respectable to be sure and eminently useful in their accustomed sphere but lamentably undersized when the broad duties, privileges and responsibilities of the high places to which they aspire are considered. The Nation is now honored in having a man for President who recognizes neither creed, race or color as a passport to preferment but who measures all men by the level of ability and the square of exact and equal justice. It is this man, this honest, courageous and loyal American, who is afraid of no issue and slave of no prejudice, a lover of humanity and a positive and progressive force on the side of all that is right and good and true. It is such a man as this that the Negro voter is asked to support. One who has given abundant proof of the stregnth and tenacity of his friendship. Whose every act has been consistent with the loftiest patriotsim and the strictest regard for the right of the case; whether the individual, a race or a nation should be affected. A man whose entire public career, whether as member of the New York legislature, Civil Service Commissioner, President of the Police Board of New York City, Assistant Secretary of the Navy, the hero of San Juan, Governor of New York, or Vice President and President of the United States, has been without ablemish and is crowned with the most honorable and patriotic achievements. A man who is unwilling to close the door of opportunity in the face of any honest citizen and who believes that the largest measure of THEODORE ROOSEVELT B PLURIBUS UNUM CHAS. WARREN FAIRBANKS ROOSEVELT AND FAIRBANKS C. D. KIMLAND 12.4. GOV. JAMES H. PEABODY. James H. Peabody, who will succeed himself as governor, is well known tqroughout the state as a man whose individual and legal standing precludes all criticism bearing upon his fitness for that civil freedom is the inherent right of all and should be secured to each and every citizen of the Republic. JOHN H. PAYNTER. The Republican party came into existence as an organized protest against wrong, injustice and slavery. It has made good every assurance, redeemed every pledge and fulfilled every promise it has ever made to the American people. It has never apologized for a single platform of principles it has enunciated, or receded from CHAS. WARREN FAIRBANKS or any other public office. He is a broad-minded, conscientious citizen, who has given the state an administration of which every citizen, regardless of party, can feel proud. a single position assumed. It has never abridged a human right guaranteed by the constitution or become an apologist for any right vouchsafed by the amendments to the National constitutions or laws enacted intended to enforce them. Every time our rights have been abridged, or we as a race disfranchised it has been the work and act of the Democratic party. There are no doubtful purposes in Roosevelt's message, but the message of Parker is full of doubt. The Republican party believes in the policy, "One for all and all for --- Republican each." By voting a ticket to reelect President Roosevelt you will make good the wise policies of the past and provide good policies for the future.—John C. Dancy. Fifty years ago before your time and mine, young men, the Republican party was born. I appeal to you, the young colored men directly, because it is not necessary to ask the old men of the race to do their duty, for they can never forget the horrors from which the Republican party emancipated them. Its corner stone was the destruction of slavery, the establishment of universal freedom. Blood and treasure alone could accomplish its holy purpose. Is the cure permanent? It's up to you. The withered hand is only palsied, it is not dead. It has still life enough to throttle liberty and establish peonage. Facing conditions as the race does, is there a conscientious colored citizens who can hesitate as to which national party he should favor by his vote. If there is, then let him view this pictures. Every law for the uplift and betterment of the condition of the Colored citizen has been written by the Republican party. Every law to degrade, humiliate and oppress the colored citizen has been written into statutory laws by the Democratic party. Does this campaign presage that the Democratic party has a change of heart and has forsaken its idols? Can there be any honest difference of opinion among colored citizens when the roll of the "Warwick" behind the throne of Democracy is called? Can any colored citizen look with complacency and with equanimity at the spectress of Vardaman, Carmack, Bailey, Gorman, Williams and Tillman? Can any colored citizen read without a shiver the latest effusion of John Temple Graves, whose malignity is now madness, and whose unblushing advice to lynch Negroes, and to reorganize the Klu-Klux-Klan, reaches the height of maniaical frenzy, and invites the coming of a new word for diabolical. The nominee of the Democratic party, notwithstanding his excellent personality cannot be judged alone because of personal antecedents, but must stand or An Appeal to Young Men. (Continued to fourth page.) TICKET. Topeka, Kans., Oct. 25. The Kansas supreme court issued today a mandatory order requiring the board of education of the city of Coffeyville to admit to the white schools the children of "Bud" Cartwright, a Negro. The writ is alternative, and the board is allowed until Nov. 4 to show cause why the Negro children should not be admitted to the white schools. The case results from a fight of two years' standing which the Negroes have made to have their children admitted to white schools. Boston, Oct. 18.—Nelson C. Hall colored, was killed, and Joe Walcott, the colored pugilist, was shot through the right hand by the accidental discharge of a revolver in the hands of Walcott early this morning. The accident occurred in the anteroom of Union Park hall, on Washington street, South end, where a dance was in progress. It is believed that Walcott will never be able to fight again. Walcott said that he was exhibiting a magazine revolver of large caliber to Hall, when from some unknown cause it was discharged. The bullet passed through Walcott's hand and then pierced Hall's heart, killing him instantly. New York, October 2. As a result of his promotion for faithful service, John W. Jones of this city holds the distinction of being the only Negro dining car conductor in the employ of the New York Central railroad. Around the Grand Central station it is thought that Jones may be the only dining car conductor of his race in the United States. Jones started to work for the New York Centaal fifteen years ago, when he was put in charge of a buffet car. Later he became a dining car waiter, serving in that capacity for more than a decade. During all that he attended to his duties consciently, and gave such satisfaction that two weeks ago he was advanced to his present rank. Palpable ignorance. Nagsby—Is DeStrutte an educated person?

GREAT EVENT FOR NEW YORK One Hundred and Fifty Thousand People Ride During the First Evening. New York, Oct. 28.—"City Hall to Harlem in fifteen minutes" became a reality yesterday when the main artery of Manhattan's great subway system was opened to the public. The formal opening exercises held in City hall yesterday afternoon were attended by invited guests. Mayor McClellan then took a silver controller and acted as motorman for the first train, giving his distinguished passengers a thorough shaking up in his tests of the safety mechanism. Long before 7 o'clock, when the first train was scheduled to leave the City hall, the park surrounding the hall was hammed with a good-natured crowd. Thousands of prisons fought with one another for the privilege of purchasing the first ticket. Flying wedges, center rushes and almost every means of progress known in football tactics were adopted by those ambitious to ride upon the first train. Squads of police were stationed at the entrances and were compelled to meet the onward rushes with similar formations. The service was inaugurated with a three-minute schedule for locals and two-minute for expresses. The outer tracks were given over to the former, while the two center tracks carried the express trains. The people turned out en masse to christen the new road, and it is estimated that nearly 150,000 rode during the evening. The desire of the people to ride on locals rather than the expresses caused a great crowding in the stations in the central part of the city, but aside from a little deviation from the schedule, the opening was successful. The term "tunnel," with its generally conveyed meaning of a dark underground passage, is illly applied to the subway. It is not only a means of transportation, but a thing of beauty. In the whole project the esthetic has been kept in mind, and it represents the highesttype of such work. Throughout it is lined with white glass tiles, the iron work is tasty and as far as possible has been designed with an eye to the artistic as well as strength and durability, while the station treated in color schemes with ceramic tiling. Each station has its own distinctive color idea, and the decorative scheme is varied in color. This idea was done not only for decorative effect, but in order that the prevailing color may indicate the locality to the underground traveler, whose usual means of knowing his whereabouts are not available. The stations are commodious and brilliantly lighted, and the finishings are all of bronze, brass and other metal, woodwork being eliminated as far as possible. The system is electrical, one great power house developing the required energy. The cars are of the latest type, being especially designed for the system, and are easier copper on steel sheathed. ENGLAND ACTS PROMPTLY. Movement of Fleet to Prepare for Possibility of War. London. Oct. 28.—Notwithstanding the diplomatic check in consequence of Admiral Rojestvensky's report, it is evident that Great Britain is preparing for the possibility of war. Tremendous activity is reported from all dock yards, where vessels under repair are being made ready for sea under urgent orders from the admiralty. At Cardiff it is stated that admiralty agents are securing great quantities of coal for Gibraltar, Portsmouth, Malta and other ports, and paying high freights. The Mediterranean fleet is hastening in the direction of Gibraltar and it is announced that the channel squadron, with decks cleared, will leave for Gibraltar early this morning, its alleged objective being a sham attack upon the rock. The home fleet is likewise concentrating. In fact, almost the entire British navy is pointing in the direction of the Russian Baltic fleet, a portion of which is expected to sail from Vigo during to-day. New Pacing Record. Memphis, Oct. 27.—With a pacemaker carrying a wind shield in front and accompanied by a runner at the side, Dan Patch, driven by Hersy, paced the fastest mile at the trotting park on Wednesday ever made by a horse in harness, circling the track in 1:56 flat. The former record, 1:56%, was made by Dan Patch in 1902. Patch fairly flew to the half in 0:57½ and when the time was announced a great cheer came from those present. At the three-quarters pole the timer's board showed 1:26½. When the brown pacer passed the judge's stand in 1:56 flat, cheer after cheer greeted the performance and Hersy was almost carried from his sulky on his return to the stand. The wind shield used was the same as that employed when Lou Dillon trotted a mile in 1:58½. It consisted of a strip of canvas about four feet square, attached to the sulky of the running pacemaker. German Vessel Fired On. Berlin, Oct. 28.—A dispatch to the Lokal Anzeiger, dated Geestemunde, October 27th, 11:55 p. m., says: "The fishing vessel Sonntag, which arrived here to-day, reported that it had been fired on for two and a half hours off dogger bank, but not hit." C. F. & I. Officers Re-elected. New York, Oct. 28.—At a quiet and harmonious meeting of the recently elected directors of the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company, President Frank J. Hearne and the other retiring officers were re-elected by a unanimous vote. Norwegian Ship Attacked. Copenhagen, Oct. 28.—The master of the Norwegian ship Skaatol reports from London that he was fired on by a Russian ship Sunday in the English channel. The Socialists have placed a county ticket in the field in Gunnison county. It is reported in Denver that a syndicate is being formed to build a magnificent big hotel at Steamboat Springs. It is rumored that a number of Greeks will try to buy out the leading bootblack stands in Denver and establish a bootblack trust. Samuel W. Meyers, auditor of bursements of the Rio Grande system, died of pneumonia October 25th in St Mark's hospital, Salt Lake. The Knights of Columbus have subscribed $15,000 toward the erection of a $50,000 club building in Denver and expect to raise the balance soon. The new Steele hospital at Denver for contagious diseases will be opened soon and will be one of the best equipped institutions of the kind in the country. County Probation Officer Reasoner of Colorado Springs has made the club women angry by asserting that they neglect their children. This they strongly deny. Prof. C. A. Bradley, principal of the Manual Training high school in Denber, says that more than one-third of the pupils who complete the grammar school enter the high school. The churches of Denver are planning revival services on a large scale to begin January 1st. J. Wilbur Chapman, a noted evangelist of New York City, will have charge of the meetings. The Pueblo Business Men's Association has selected a committee of five to confer with two woolen manufacturers for the purpose of installing a plant that will employ 200 men at the start. Gen. Frank D. Baldwin, commanding the Department of the Colorado, will ask from the coming Congress an appropriation of $900,000 to be used in the enlargement and improvement of Fort Logan at Denver. The Dupont Powder Company is making arrangements to build a big powder factory two miles west of Pueblo, near the Rio Grande railroad. It is expected that more than 500 men will be employed. Judge Ben B. Lindsey, who has become famous through his juvenile court work in Denver, is to write a book book on "The Problem of the Child" for the MacMillan Publishing Company of New York. The motor cycle run from Fort Logan, at Denver, to Albuquerque, New Mexico, by Sergeant Capron and Private Bolen, was so delayed by bad roads and washouts south of Raton pass that no record was made. Capt. Charles E. Eymann of the Denver Fire Department died November 21st from the effects of nitric acid fumes inhaled at the time of the disaster in the etching room of the Denver Post, being the fourth person to die from that cause. For the purpose of starting a fund to build a home for invalid and enfeebled mail carriers of Denver, the Denver Letter Carriers Band of the National Association of Letter Carriers will give a concert and ball at Colseum hall on November 15th. A bull dog owned by William Corwin saved the life of Mr. Corwin's two-year-old boy a few days ago at Denver. The child had fallen on the track in front of a rapidly-moving electric car when the dog seized his clothing and dragged him away to safety. Prof. L. D. Crain, head of the department of electrical engineering at the Agricultural College, has been requested by the American Institute of Electrical Engineers to form a branch student organization among the students of electrical engineering at the college. F. W. Wetter, who finished serving a sentence at Cripple Creek October 24th, was immediately rearrested on his release, charged with desecrating the flag by posting small miniatures of a circular, the words of which were printed on the stripes of the national emblem. An effort will be made by a number of business men in Pueblo to reorganize the Fidelity Savings Association of Denver, which is now in the hands of two receivers. It is said that their plans are meeting with favor at the hands of a large number of the stockholders. The railway south from Durango to Tucson, Arizona, under survey, added another corps sent out from Durango a few days ago, to work from the San Juan river in New Mexico north to connect with the division working south from Durango, Colorado, setting grade and slope stakes. The Supreme Court has granted a writ of supersedeas in the case of James Greenwood, George Young, Thomas Smith and Rollo F, McAllister, four men who were sentenced to the penitentiary from Delta county for burglary. The bond of each one of the four men was fixed at $7,500. It is alleged that the District Court erred in the matter of not allowing the legal number of challenges. The fifth amendment to the articles of incorporation of the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company, which has been filed with the county clerk at Pueblo, shows the capital stock of the company to be $46,200,000, divided into shares of $100 each.

GUIDES AIRSHIP GUIDES AIRSHIP OVER WORLD'S FAIR GROUNDS Baldwin Airship "Arrow" Makes Successful Flight at St. Louis—Passes Over City and Lands in Illinois. St. Louis, Oct. 26.—Propelled part of the way by its own power and the remainder of the distance by the wind, which was blowing at the rate of about nine or ten miles an hour, the airship Arrow, owned by Thomas Baldwin of San Francisco, in charge of A. Roy Knabenshue of Toledo, made an unannounced ascension from the aeronautic course at the World's Fair yesterday and landed near Cahokia, Illinois, a distance of nearly ten miles, after a flight that attracted the attention of thousands of persons who cheered almost continuously as the big flying machine passed over the Exposition grounds, left the residence section of St. Louis and soared high above the towering office buildings of the business district. Clinging to the frame work of the car, his precious foothold an iron tube that forms one side of the base of the triangular network of suppors and ribs of the airship body. Knabenshue directed the movements of his flying machine and maneuvered in circles and against the wind over the monster exhibit palaces of the Exposition before an accident to his motor, which rendered the big fan-like propellers useless and curtailed his command of the airship. Notwithstanding the breaking of the motor, Knabenshue did not lose complete control of the machine, but with the momentum given by the wind he was enabled to steer the machine in a course that varied several points in each direction from the trend of the wind, and land at a point of his own selecting. Steering his balloon so that he could gain the best speed from the wind, Knabenshue directed its course over the southwestern residence district of St. Louis, where its presence was soon discovered and its progress marked by thousands. Passing rapidly eastward, the Arrow reached the down-town district, where its appearance was the signal for the greatest excitement. Clerks deserted their desks, street cars were stopped and practically all business was suspended while the airship passed over the city. Although then nearly a mile high, Knabenshue could be seen occasionally moving backward and forward on his dangerous standing place, keeping his ship under control and directing its movements either upward or downward, as he desired. From the Missouri side he passed to the Illinois shore of the Mississippi river and, having completed his self-imposed task, he headed toward Cahokia, and brought his airship to the ground about half a mile from that little hamlet. CZAR APOLOGIZES. Will Make Reparation for Attack on British Fishing Fleet. London, Oct. 26.—The inevitable delays of diplomatic procedure appear to retard a complete and satisfactory settlement of the acute differences between Great Britain and Russia arising from the deplorable North Sea affair. King Edward has received from Emperor Nicholas himself a cablegram expressing the deepest regret and a practical acknowledgment that Great Britain's peremptory note will meet with a reply conceding every demand for apology for the act of aggression against the British flag, compensation for sufferers and punishment of the officers responsible for what is everywhere conceded to have been a gigantic blunder, and the Russian ambassador to the court of St. James has expressed to Foreign Minister Lansdowne his sorrow and sympathy. These developments, which came late in the day, have allayed to some extent the deep resentment in the public mind. The admiralty last night gave evidence of its appreciation of the necessity of proving that it is prepared actively to support the position of the people of Great Britain and fulfill the expectations of the world, when it issued the following statement: "On receipt on October 24th of the news of the North Sea tragedy, preliminary orders for mutual support and co-operation were issued as a measure of precaution from the admiralty to the channel, Mediterranean and home fleets." Episcopal Divorce Canon. Boston, Oct. 26.—An agreement on the divorce question was reached Monday by the house of bishops and the house of deputies of the Episcopalian general convention, after many days of discussion. That section of the canon bearing directly on the remarriage of divorced persons, which was amended by the bishops Saturday, assented to by the deputies today and becomes effective at once, follows: "No minister, knowingly, after due inquiry, shall solemnize the marriage of any person who has been or is the husband or wife of any other person then living, from whom he or she has been divorced for any cause arising after marriage. But this canon shall not be held to apply to the innocent party in a divorce for adultery; provided, that before the application for such re-marriage a period of not less than one year shall have elapsed after the granting of such divorce, and that satisfactory evidence touching the facts in the case, including a copy of the court's decree and record, if practicable, with such proof that the defendant was personally served or appeared in the action, be laid before the ecclesiastical authority, having taken advice then, shall have declared in writing that in his judgment the case of the applicant conforms to the requirements of this canon, and provided further, that it shall be within the discretion of any minister to decline to solemnize any marriage." ADMIRAL'S TALE LOOKED LIKE TORPEDO BOAT8 Imagined That a Torpedo Was Fired. Vigo, Spain, Oct. 27.—The Associated Press has succeeded in obtaining an interview with Admiral Robestvensky, who expressed great regret over the North sea incident. The admiral stated that the unfortunate occurrence was purely accidental. The weather on the night in question was rather hazy. About 1 a. m. two torpedo boats, which the Russians supposed were Japanese craft, suddenly appeared between the two divisions of the squadron and seemed to discharge torpedoes. The Russians immediately opened fire. They saw no fishermen, and were not aware that any damage had been done. Evidently, the admiral said, the fishermen had shown no lights. The admiral repeated that he greatly regretted that any injury had been done fishermen, and added that he had no doubt the Russian government would make ample compensation. The arrival of the Russian battleships Alexander III., Borodino, Orel and Kniazsoroff and the transport Anatol, which have anchored in this port, has caused considerable excitement. The commander of the port boarded the flagship and informed Admiral Rojestvensky that the Spanish government could not permit the warships to coal within the port. The admiral replied that his vessels needed repairs, and that for that reason he had separated from the remainder of his squadron. The commander of the port promised to inform the Spanish government of the admiral's statement and communicate the government's reply as soon as it was received. Prince Keretelli, an officer of the battleship Emperor Alexander III., has been interviewed and gives the following explanation of the attack by the Baltic squadron upon the British trawlers off Dogger bank: "The transport Anatol, which was steaming ahead of the squadron, was suddenly surrounded by eight torpedo boats and requested assistance, whereupon the battleship division advanced and signalled to the unknown vessels to leave or disclose their nationality. The vessels refused to obey and advanced among the Russian battleships. Suddenly a cannon was heard from an unknown vessels. The the admiral formed in battle line and returned the fire, afterward continuing his voyage." The prince added that the Russians feared the strange torpedo boats were Japanese, as the admiral was aware that the Japanese had purchased such boats in England. Organized Labor Criticised. St. Louis, Oct. 27.—The second session of the Transmississippi Commercial Congress, held yesterday in the hall of congresses, was marked by an even larger attendance than characterized the opening session. Yesterday's meeting was largely devoted to irrigation, and many papers were read treating on the methods pursued in reclaiming arid lands. F. B. Thurber of New York, president of the United States Export Association, made an address on "Organized Labor and the General Public." He said in part: "The public is beginning to understand that there may be labor trusts as well as capital trusts. Only that which is reasonable can last, and the public is getting tired of the unreasonable demands of organized labor, which represents less than one-fifth of all the labor in the United States. "In this age of organization and universal suffrage the only way in which the general public can keep from being ground between the upper and nether millstones of organized labor and organized capital, is to itself organize, educate and vote."

Paris, Oct. 27.—The court martial of four prominent officers of the war ministry—Colonels Dautrich, Rollin, Francols and Mareschal—charged with using military funds and otherwise influencing witnesses against Dreyfus at Renes, was resumed yesterday. The court room was crowded. Great interest was taken in the examination of Colonel Mareschal, who was connected with the war office prior to the Dreyfus case, which brought out a detailed statement of the sum he paid a spy bearing the alias of "Austerlitz." The witness, with the late Colonel Henry, formerly of the headquarters staff, visited "Austerlitz" at Zurich and paid him sums varying from $200 to $2,000 for incriminating documents. The total paid this spy was about $-000. The last payment was in July, 1899, a month prior to the opening of the last trial of Dreyfus. The witness did not give the nature of the documents nor details of the identity of "Austerlitz." He reserved these facts for the secret session of the court martial. Duluth to Galveston Chicago, Oct. 27.—A dispatch to the Tribune from Houston, Texas, says: Edward D. Steger, president of the Denison, Bonham & New Orleans railroad, has just returned from France, where he has been for three months arranging with one of the largest banking institutions of the continent for the financing of what will be the first through railway north and south in America. It is to run from Duluth, Minnesota, via Kansas City to Galveston, Texas, with subordinate lines. The construction will amount to 3,000 miles. The road is to be completed in five years. The contract with the French syndicate is for an investment of $78,000,000. Construction will begin in Texas within thirty days, according to Mr. Steger.

One would scarcely suppose that any class of people would voluntarily and knowingly vote to deprive themselves of the plainest and dearest rights of freemen. To go wherever inclination or interest may determine is the first and most elementary principle of liberty. It is in fact the instinctive test of freedom, and one is practically a slave who is denied this God-given right. If he is restricted, hampered or intimidated in the exercise of this right, common to all other classes of citizens, he is to that extent not free, and to that degree not a full-fledged citizen. To walk upon any of the public streets of the city wherein one lives and pays taxes at once presents itself to the mind as one of the simplest and most unquestioned rights. Yet the present police authorities under this Dem ocratic city administration challenge this right to a single class of citizens. Colored men are forbidden by them the use of certain streets in the lower parts of the city. It matters not what their business may be the policemen on these beats drive them off the streets, abusing, cursing and threatening them with violence. In many instances these officers have actually beaten them with great severity; and for no other reason than that these citizens were peacefully pursuing their way along these highways as the course of their work took them. These policemen claim that they receive their instructions in this matter from their superiors, and they declare it to be their purpose accordingly to "prevent any nigger from walking on those streets." Is it possible that any colored citizen would vote to extend this Democratic system of intolerance, discrimination and outrage? Surely not. Yet we find some of the men who have been loud in denunciation of these outrages now in a Democratic club having for its object the election of Adams, the Democratic candidate for governor. We can hardly believe they will vote for him all the same. There are certain things that wont go down. PEABODY, PEACE AND PROSPERITY. Without law there can be no order, without order there can be no peace, without peace there can be no prosperity. Gov. Peabody stands for order, peace and prosperity. These are the elemental conditions of contentment and happiness among men. The man in any community who contributes most to their establishment or to their restoration when destroyed is a public benefacor, and is deserving of the highest recognition which a grateful people can bestow. Such a man is Peabody. Who can close his eyes to the fact that with the overthrow and disappearance of the reign of terrorism and lawlessness in the mining districts of Colorado a great measure of prosperity has returned to the state? Mines closed on account of mob violence and a general prevailing sense of insecurity of life and property have reopened and are now being operated on a larger scale than for a long time. The output of the gold mines of the Cripple Creek district during the month of September is greater than ever. More than 5000 industrious and contented miners swell the payroll of the various mine owners. Their smiling faces declare their inward satisfaction with their improved condition and brighter prospects. And why should it be otherwise? The miner can now proceed to and from his work and continue his labors without fear of the hidden assassin with his death dealing dynamite. No longer do mobs on violence beat vex his placid serenity or strike terror into the hearts of his family left at home. He flourishes under fair wages and the ideal eight hour day. But like impetus is felt in the entire mining industry. And this revival of prosperity reaches through every avenue of business, for whatever affects the mines the principal source of our wealth, must necessarily touch with good or evil effect the entire gamut of our business. We have briefly pictured conditions as they existed when Gov. Peabody found it necessary to act. We have pointed out the results of this executive action. Look at this picture and then on that and say whether you will choose the former or the latter; whether it will be Adams the choice of the W.F. of M. or Peabody the true and tried Republican promoter of peace and prosperity in the state. It is up to you colored voters. Shall it be Roosevelt who stands for national prosperity and Peabody who equally represents state prosperity, or shall it be Adams and perpetual tumult, strife and assassination. This you can make known by your ballot. DEPORTATION BY JUDGE OWERS It sounds very much like deportation, does it not? Is there anything in it that suggests a violation of the constitutional rights of American citizens? Does not your national platform state in the most specific terms that it is opposed to the banishment of citizens; that any "organization or government" that would deny "any citizen" (observe, please, that it says ANY citizen) the right to live where "intrests or inclination may determine," should be "summarily rebuked and punished"? Here is a specific instance of deportation that needs your early attention. If you have read the constitution and believe the Democratic platform, you must agree that the person who issued the above order was acting without specific constitutional authority. If you know of anything in the constitution that would permit an officer in times of peace to issue such an order as this, you should point to it without delay, because there is a general impression abroad that your ideas of "justice" are all tangled up upon this deportation matter. According to your public utterances, and those of your allies of the Western Federation of Miners, who are spending tens of thousands of dollars for speakers to slander the people of Colorado throughout the United States, this order, whether promulgated by the civil or military authorities, would be denounced as an outrageous attack upon the rights of domicile—an unpardonable offense against the natural and legal rights of American citizens. The man who uttered it would be branded as a heartless tyrant, or perhaps a "hired Hessian of the capitalistic class," or something equally as dreadful. But when you and these political allies of yours know that this order was issued by that paragon of populistic virtue, by that illustrious champion of inhuman liberty, who stands ready to bleed, if necessary, when the constitutional rights of the lawless are in danger—Judge Frank Owers—both you and your Socialistic political companions promptly lose your voice. It seems strange that Judge Owers would decline the Populist nomination and advise the Populists to vote for you in order to punish Governor Peabody because of the deportations at Cripple Creek, knowing all the while that he, himself—Judge Owers—this new Socialist conscript of yours, has been guilty of many similar offenses in Leadville; but such is the case, and here is one of his orders of banishment, issued on January 7th of this year: "Each of you is ordered to leave town. I will give you ample time, and if you are found in the city after that time you will be ordered into this court and fined." And now, Governor, prepare for the shock. These deportees of your friend Owers were not big, strong men, equipped to struggle with the world, but poor unfortunate women. Isn't it dreadful, when you stop to think of it! Not that they were deported, because it is just as necessary to protect a community against undesirable characters of one sex as another; but to think that this constitutional lawyer, this self-appointed guardian of constitutional liberty, up there on the spine of the Republic, who is now trotting along in your class, should be the guilty party! When he got to these cases, Nos. 1559 to 1563, inclusive, against Lou Brooks, Edna Faulkner, Lola Courtney, Minnie Warren and Ethel Saunders, dance hall artistes, he appreciated that he had encountered one of those "extraordinary emergencies" referred to in my letter of a week ago, which required him to go beyond the constitution in order to do justice to the community. And he did the same sensible thing that the people of Teller county did. What do you think about this action of Judge Owers? Is it possible, with all your experience as a public man and as a lawmaker, that you are without views upon the constitutionality of deportations by the civil authorities? If not, you should give your views at once upon this question, because people are really to think that you are afraid to tackle it. Judge Owers said to the unfortunate whom he banished: I WOULD NOT WORK A HARDSHIP UPON YOU THAT WAS AVOIDABLE, BUT I BELIEVE THIS TOWN NEEDS REFORM." Is this not exactly the same sentiment that prompted the deportations of Cripple Creek? The people of Teller county, if they had wanted to harm their tormentors, had the full power to do so; but they did not use it. IF JUDGE OWERS FELT JUSTIFIED IN VIOLATING THE CONSTITUTION IN THIS MANNER TO DEFEND THE MORALS OF THE COMMUNITY AGAINST THE ATTACKS OF THESE FIVE FRAIL WOMEN, IS IT NOT REASONABLE, MR. ADAMS, THAT THE PEOPLE OF CRIPPLE CREEK SHOULD FEEL JUSTIFIED IN PURSUING THE SAME COURSE TO PROTECT LIFE AND PROPERTY FROM THE ATTACKS OF A BAND OF DYNAMITERS AND ASSASSINS? IF DANCE HALL GIRLS MAY BE BANISHED TO SAVE THE MORALS OF THE PEOPLE, WHY MAY DYNAMITERS NOT BE BANISHED TO SAVE THE LIVES AND PROPERTY OF DECENT PEOPLE? The action of the judge showed that the law did not meet the difficulty confronting him and he had to go beyond it. The action of the people of Teller county, supported by the power of the state, showed exactly the same thing. The same principle, that of self-preservation, was applied in both instances, was it not? So far as the legality of the proceeding is concerned, is it not a fact that the military has the advantage of the civil authorities in this case? Does not the constitution give the military commander far greater power and discretion in times of insurrection than the counts possess? Now, Mr. Adams, don't shy around these questions in that "weak and vacillating" way of yours, so ably described by your illustrious campaign bugler, Senator Patterson, but tell the people of Colorado why you think it is right for a city to deport its undesirable characters and wrong for a county to do the same thing. The next time you see Judge Owers it might be wise to ask him why he indulged in the deportation habit in his district and attacked the governor for approving the same thing in other districts. In his abusive and insulting letter to the governor regarding the failure of the latter official to use the militia of the state to return the deportees to Idaho Springs, he THE ADAMS RISK. So far as Roosevelt and Fairbanks are concerned, the election is already won. The only possible danger is over-confidence, and there is not too much of that; but in this state we have a local contest which is probably attracting more attention than any other local contest in the United States. Governor Peabody is every- country that the people of Colorado have declared against the protection of life and property—that the state is an unsafe place for investments; that the people of Colorado cannot be trusted to uphold an executive who has had the courage to enforce the law, under the constitution, as interpreted by the Supreme Court; that the majority of our voters prefer agitation and unrest to peace and progress. other time and at a fearful cost. All this is so, entirely irrespective of the personality of Mr. Alva Adams or his ability to preserve peace. Even if he should eventually turn out a regular Caesar, and suppress violence with an iron hand, there would be first a long period of unrest, agitation, want of confidence. What is the use of having such a period, when we may just Usually it is mere buncombe to assure the voters of a state as comparatively small in population as our own that "the eyes of the country are upon you"; this year it is actually so. Visitors all tell us that Colorado is the best-advertised state in the Union; that our exhibits at the World's Fair—two of which, by the way, have received gold medals from the board of award within a few days—have opened the eyes of all visitors to the wonderful resources and equally wonderful development of our state. If Adams is elected it will be the worst-advertised state in the Union. The good effect of our recent advertising will be largely nullified. The work done by Governor Peabody will probably all have to be done over again some Open Letter No. 7. To the Hon. Alva Adams; THE ADAMS RISK. So far as Roosevelt and Fairbanks are concerned, the election is already won. The only possible danger is over-confidence, and there is not too much of that; but in this state we have a local contest which is probably attracting more attention than any other local contest in the United States. Governor Peabody is everywhere regarded as the representative of law and order, of every man's right to work, of the authority of the whole people of the state against the authority of a secret organization of dynamiters and assassins. What his election would mean to the business of the state cannot be calculated. But it would certainly mean a continuation of the business confidence which now prevails; it would mean the investment of hundreds of thousands of dollars of eastern money in this state; it would be an example to other states which may be threatened with the same sort of domination which the western federation sought to establish here. The election of Adams, on the other hand, will be a signal to the whole said that if he were governor he "would enforce the rights guaranteed my fellow beings by the constitution and the law." But as judge you see he has found it necessary to violate the "rights guaranteed his fellow beings by the constitution and the law" by deporting the unfortunate and helpless fellow beings referred to above. You might bring this point to his attention in strong language, affecting indignation, for if you get him stirred up, you may find that he knows of some section of the constitution which has escaped your notice, as well as that of the Supreme Court. As to yourself, your position now appears to be that it depends upon whose ox is gored. Inasmuch as a constitutional amendment authorizing banishment under certain conditions would be contrary to the spirit of our institutions, and in danger of being abused, such a solution is out of the question, and we will, therefore, have to get along under the present system of deportation, will we not? If not, how do you propose to stop it in cities and in courts ruled over by Populist judges like Frank Owers? Isn't it a fact that the use of this deportation system will be very likely to continue, as it has for centuries past, depending upon the common sense and spirit of justice of the law-abiding people to see that it is not abused? Inasmuch as you are making your campaign largely upon the deportation issue, it is due the people whom you expect to vote for you that you make yourself clear on the points raised in this and former letters on this subject. If you are in doubt, don't forget to see Owers. He has had experience on both sides of the question, and stands both for and against it. Yours truly, Trying to Fool the Farmer. Patterson, Adams and other Democratic spellbinders are posing as champions of the oppressed farmer. They deplore the supposed great cost to him of the militia under Peabody, all of which is very proper, if what they say is true. But they deliberately misstate facts with a view of deceiving the public. The valuation of the state is about $340,000,000. If we take their statements, the cost of the militia has been four-fifths of a million dollars. Let us suppose that this is correct. It will then take a levy of 2.3 mills on each dollar of the state's valuation to pay it. That is, if we pay it all off next year. The average farm is about eighty acres. The state auditor's report says that the average value of farm land is $12 per acre. This would make the average farm worth about $1,000. The man who owns an eighty-acre farm will pay on the average $2.30 to liquidate his part of this debt, for this is at the rate of 2.3 mills on the dollar of its valuation. It is this $2.30 that sends our Democratic friends into fits. They forget about the mines that were closed, the smelters and iron mills that were idle, the men who were killed and maimed, but this $2.30 to the average farmer worries them and causes them to use red ink and much fervid oratory. Just think of it! It takes a little more than two bushels of wheat, a little less than one-third of a ton of hay and the great load is lifted, the so-called enormous debt is paid. If ten-year bonds are issued on the same plan as was used in paying the Leadville war debt by the Adams administration, it would amount to a little less than 25 cents per year for the owner of the average eighty-acre farm. What farmer will say that he is not glad to pay this for the end that has been accomplished? Where would his market have been if the mines and mills had remained closed. Where would his market be if the great mining industry of this state is to be paralyzed from time to time by the lawless element of the Western Federation of Miners. The extra profit that he makes on his crop this year, through Peabody's firm policy, will pay each farmer's portion of the debt fifty times over. These are facts. No amount of oratory and no quantity of red ink can refute them. Don't let them fool you. Mr. Farmer. The Attorney-General. Thus far the campaign has been waged mostly on the respective personalities of the two candidates for governor, and the general policies approved, or supposed to be approved by them. It is time to remember that while the main issue is paramount, there are other candidates to be voted for, and a comparison of them in every case will show the advantage the Republicans have in availability and efficiency. No office under this administration has made a finer record than the attorney general's. More cases were inherited from its predecessor than by any previous administration; more new cases have been started; more cases have been handled; more cases have been finished, and a very much larger proportion of cases has been won than by any previous attorney general. The two cases best known in which the state has been involved in the past two years are the Moyer case and the Kansas-Colorado water case. The services of the attorney general in the former were inestimable. He advised the governor at every step, and the advice was so good that when the final test came in the Supreme Court not a step that had been made had to be traced. The view of the case presented for the state was fully upheld by the court, and the governor's course, which had been determined in its legal aspects by the advice of the attorney general, was thoroughly endorsed. In the Kansas-Colorado water suit the present administration has had a tremendous amount of labor. While other attorneys have been engaged, the supervision of the whole has been upon the attorney general, and this supervision has been real, not nominal or perfunctory. Against a man who has showed such zeal and ability the Democrats have put up Daniel B. Carey, who served under the Orman administration as one of the "extras," who were paid out of the "General Incidental Fund"—what Democratic authorities have called the "Grab Fund." During the two years Mr. Carey received more than $5,000 out of this fund, as shown by the official report of Auditor Crouter. Mr. Carey may be a good lawyer, but to compare him with such a lawyer as the present attorney general has showed himself to be would only be ridiculous; and to substitute such a man in so important a case as the big water suit at a crucial time in the litigation would simply be the height of folly. All this is so, entirely irrespective of the personality of Mr. Alva Adams, or his ability to preserve peace. Even if he should eventually turn out a regular Caesar, and suppress violence with an iron hand, there would be first a long period of unrest, agitation, want of confidence. What is the use of having such a period, when we may just as well get along without it? But it is not at all likely that Governor Adams would turn out a Caesar. He isn't built that way; and from his words and acts, and the words and acts of his supporters—from the attempt of Owers to turn over to him the votes of the Populist remnant—from the effort of Moyer and Haywood, against the advice of Debs, their national leader—to deliver to Adams the vote of the Socialists, from his palver instead about using "justice" as a weapon instead of "the sword"—from all these things one is certainly justified in drawing the conclusion that if there should come another conflagration kindled by the Western Federation of Miners, he would try to put it out with rose-water from a garden hose. (Continued from first page.) fall with the forces back of him who secured his nomination, and whose nominee he is. A tree is known by its fruits. For the colored citizen to uphold the principles of the Republican party is not a hesitation only, but a splendid and sacred trust. Because of the glorious past of this grand organization, and the knowledge that the hope and opportunity of every colored citizen in the South as well as the North is wrap up in its future, should nerve the hand of every member of the race, so that he might firmly grasp and raise overhead the banner of right, justice and equal privileges; hold aloft the banner of a storied past. There was a time when the Republican party appeared to halt between two opinions—to remain true to the Faith of the Fathers, or to abandon the fight for human rights—when commercialism seemed to swing the pendulum of fate. But he harkened to the Macedonian cry, and back to its mooring floated proudly the Grand Old Ship of State. In the great crises which confronts the nation today we should not contemplate a question of color. But, if perforce it be injected in the campaign, then listen when I say that no race of people who ever inhabited the earth or ever will, in my judgment, would forego the opportunity of doing its utmost in the interest of a party that has done so much for them as a race as the Republican party has done for the colored citizen, as against the determined, consistent and constant opposition of the Democratic party to the rise and progress to the manhood and womanhood of the colored citizen of the United States.—J. M. Vance. Married Men Understand. In a murder trial in Lancaster, Mo., State Attorney Smoot asked a woman witness some questions about her domestic affairs. The witness resented the asking of such a question, saying, "I reckon a woman has a right to boss her own house." Mr. Smoot asked what she meant by that, whereupon Judge Shelton interposed: "The remark made by the witness is perfectly clear, and I am confident the jury understands what she means. They are all married men." Profit From Lavatories. The public works committee of Birmingham, England, in submitting to the city council a proposition for the construction of an additional underground lavatory, etc., announced that where small charges are made there are profit possibilities in conveniences of this kind. The committee said that the four underground lavatories, etc., were paying the city a net profit on $2,433 a year. Is This True? When a woman asks a number of questions she is possessed of idle curiosity. When a man asks a number he is animated by a keen desire to improve his mind and enlarge his sphere of knowledge. This is just another of the little differences between the sexes which ought to show a woman the utter impossibility of ever hoping to attain equality with man. Use of Electric Power.

CARLYLE AS A CRITIC Sage Had Pronounced Views as te Leading Literary Men. In his recently published letters Carlyle gives his views as to various men of letters of his time. He calls Tennyson "a very clever man" and "one of the powerfulest smokers I ever worked along with in that department." Ruskin, though "a bottle of beautiful soda water," was "very pleasant company now and then." Macaulay he considered "really a good sort of soul." The lecture to Browning, whom he strongly advised to try prose for a time, is rather amusing. "Unless I very greatly mistake, you seem to possess a rare spiritual gift, poetical, pictorial, intellectual, by whatever name we may prefer to call it; to unfold which into articulate clearness is naturally the problem of all problems for you. This noble endowment, it seems to me, further, you are not at present on the best way of unfolding—and if the world had loudly called itself content with these two poems, my surmise is, the world could have rendered you no fataler disservice than that same! Believe me I speak with sincerity, and if I had not loved you well I would not have spoken at all." S. E. Hayden left last Sunday for St. Louis and other points in Missouri. Mrs. J. W.

Good speakers will be present to address the people. See ad. in this paper for further particulars. At the residence of Mrs. George S. Contee last Monday night, a very largely attended meeting was held by the Roosevelt-Peabody Colored Women's club. The program was sandwiched with spicy speeches by members and friends of the club.

Both the bride and groom were former residents of this city and have a host of admiring friends here who wish them unbounded happiness and prosperity in their voyage of matrimony. --- The campaign is almost to its goal and the work that has been and is being done by the colored citizens in the interest of the Republican ticket has been met with success on every turn and no one man is more responsible for this than is J. W. Jackson, president of the Roosevelt Colored Republican club. Never in the history of Denver has there been a more vigorous worker and promoter of big Republican rallies than Mr. Jackson and the big rally held at East Turner hall Thursday night was a strong endorsement of his political genius. In the was of gaining voters for the party nothing has been overlooked by Mr. Jackson and the fact will be told at the polls on November 8th by a large Republican majority.

At the close of the program the grand march took place and after promenading the hall in various movements, filed out to the banquet room where a sumptuous spread awaited them. Dancing was also indulged in and a late hour found the crowd dispersing, leaving words of praise for the hospitality of this enterprising organization. Mrs. Mary E. Smith, who was one of the oldest pioneer residents of Denver, and the founder of Shorter Chapel, the first colored church organized in the state, died last Sunday morning at her late residence, 42 So.

The only place in the world where violin-making may be said to constitute the staple industry is Markneukirchen, in Saxony, with its numerous surrounding villages. There are altogether about 15,000 people in this district engaged exclusively in the manufacture of violins. The inhabitants, from the small boy and girl to the wrinkled, grey-headed veteran and the aged grandmother, are employed throughout the year in making some part or other of this instrument. Cure for Sea Sickness. The British Medical Journal says: Koepke believes that the different symptoms of sea sickness are due to anemia of the brain, and that validol acts upon this condition by raising the blood pressure. It also influences the gastric disturbances by lowering the sensibility of the nerve endings in the gastric mucous membrane, and is, indeed, both a good stomachic and a good ankleptic. One Mar's Meat Another's Poison. One Mar.'s Meat Another's Poison. In the rivers of some of the West Indian islands there abound fish which it would be deadly poison for Europeans to eat, but which the natives find a nourishing and enjoyable diet. In parts of New Zealand there grows a sort of orange which no one but a native can eat without becoming ill, while a couple would probably poison the average European. Fewer Deaths in India. The fact that about 4,000,000 deaths from fevers, mostly malarial, are caused in India every year indicates the stupendous importance of the mosquito problem. It has been proved that people dwelling in houses a mile from the breeding grounds of the anopheles variety of mosquitoes are practically free from malaria. Largest of All Telescopes. The largest efficient telescope in the world is to be added to the equipment of Harvard university. The-new instrument is 27 feet in focal length and has a five-foot aperture—nearly twice as large as the Lick observatory telescope, which has a 36-inch aperture. The telescope will be used chiefly for photographic work. A Refined Compliment. At the instant Queen Elizabeth of England alighted at Kenilworth, on a visit to Leicester, all the clocks in the castle were stopped, and by a delicate attention the hands continued to point toward the moment of her arrival, since no one was to take note of time during the royal sojourn there. Odd Fellows Care for Sick. Manchester (England) Odd Fellow, who has just died, went on sick pay in August, 1869, and remained there continuously for thirty-five years. His lodge gave him money regularly and paid for his doctor and medicines, and now it has given his widow $160. Appendicitis Is Contagious. According to M. Championniere, in a paper read before the French Academy of Medicine, appendicitis is infectious, and may arise from influenza.

Smoking is a custom loathsome to the eye, hateful to the nose, harmful to the brain, dangerous to the lungs; and in the black fume thereof nearest resembling the horrible Stygian smoke of the pit that is bottomless.—James I.

That salt possesses tonic qualities is well known, but it has remained for a woman suffering from nervous prostration to try a dry sea salt rub with beneficial results. She soaks a coarse wash cloth in a strong solution of the sea salt, then dries it. After her cold bath of a morning she wipes off the moisture with a towel, then rubs with the salty wash cloth till her skin is in a glow. She says she has found this to be far more invigorating than the usual bath in salt water. Animals That Count. Evidence that animals can count has been collected by Signor Mancini. Horses in the collieries at Hainaun have a regular number of daily trips, and invariably seek their stables after the thirteenth. A dog remembered the twenty-sixth buried bone a short time after digging up twenty-five. Birds count their eggs; magpies count only to four. The latter is true also of monkeys. Prince Herbert Bismarck. In his prime he was noted for his overbearing temper and insolent manner. The story is told of him that he once ran into and nearly upset a distinguished diplomat, who angrily asked what he meant by it. "I am Count Bismarck," was the reply. "The explanation is ample," said the other, "but the excuse is insufficient."—New York Times. In Days of Large Families. In Conway churchyard (Eng.) there was to be seen—it can scarcely be there to-day—a tombstone bearing the following epitaph: "Here lyeth the body of Nicholas Hocker, of Conway, gentleman, who was the forty-first child of his father, William Hocker, by Alice his wife, and the father of twenty-seven children, 1637." Goldfish Destroy Mosquitoes. People living in the island of Cyprus have discovered that the water tanks in private houses are favorite breeding places for mosquitoes, and they have learned as well that goldfish are effective destroyers of the mosquito larva. As few as five or six goldfish are sufficient to keep an ordinary house tank free. Origin of Ancient Saying. It was formerly a trick among country folk to substitute a cat for a sucking pig, and bring it in a bag to market. If any greenhorn chose to buy a "pig in a poke" without examination all very well; but if he opened the sack, "he let the cat out of the bag," and the trick was disclosed. Big Consumption of Wheat. Our home consumption of wheat for food is about five and a quarter bushel a year for each of our eighty-one million inhabitants. This per capita consumption appears to be interesting. The high prices of meats are probably increasing the demand for bread. Cook's Perquisites A restaurant cook arrested for stealing provisions in London, was found to have "concealed on his person" three apples, a shoulder of mutton, a pound of butter, a pound of sausages, half a pound of jam and a package of cocoa. Robs His Employer. Paul Reimers, a German decorator, was so fond of reading his Bible in working hours that the foreman took it away from him, and found, between the leaves, a large amount of gold leaf. Reimers had been stealing regularly. A Very Bashful Man A brown-eyed lass of this community received a very unique love-letter Sunday. The letter contained a proposal, but was anonymous. She insisted the knight was too faint-hearted.—Marion (Ark.) Reform. Satisfy Curiosity It has been found that Chinatown guides in San Francisco get up opium and other dens of vice of their own in Chinatown and employ Chinese to occupy them, to be show places for tourists. Irish Farm Hand Strike Three meals, two pints of porter and 84 cents a day is the demand of farm laborers in the midland counties of Ireland, and they have gone on strikes to enforce the demand.

The Danish government has found it necessary to grant greater privileges to the heads of families in changing their names if they feel so disposed. This seems on the face of it a very unnecessary piece of legislation, but it is not to the Danes. It appears that the entire population is divided into three great clans, the Hansens, the Petersens and the Soerensens. Beside any one of these the familiar Smiths and Joneses of our country would be a ridiculous minority. As an example of what the Danish postman has to contend against, it may be noted that in one town of 25,000 inhabitants there are only twenty surnames to go around, each of which is, therefore, the name borne by more than 1,200 people. Shakespeare's House. The number of visitors to the Shakespeare house at Stratford-on-Avon this year has beaten the record, having been at the rate of 30,000 per annum. American visitors have become so numerous that a special register of their names is now kept. BLOOD WILL TELL A THEORY SUPPORTED BY FRESH, CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE. A Recent Instance Proves That a Woman's Happiness Is Largely Dependent on the State of Her Blood. When the blood is disordered every organ of the body is affected unfavorably and fails to discharge its functions properly. In the case of every woman nature has made special provision for a periodical purification of the blood, and so long as this occurs her health and spirits unfallingly reveal the beneficial results. So slight a cause as a cold or a nervous shock may produce a suppression of this vital function, and until it is restored she is doomed to misery. The remedy that has proved most prompt and effective in all disorders peculiar to the female sex is that which brought such great relief to Miss Mattie Griggs, of No. 807 Indiana street, Lawrence, Kansas, concerning which she speaks as follows: "In the winter of 1902, from some unknown cause, there was a cessation of functions peculiar to my sex for a period of four months. I became very weak and could not get up stairs without help. I had nausea and pain and a constant headache. I was under the care of a physician for three months, but he did not succeed in curing me. Then & lady friend told me about the merits of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills which she had used in her family, and she induced me to try them. It was in May when I first began to use them, and in June I had fully recovered my health, and have since remained perfectly well." In all cases of delayed development of young girls; in anemia or weakness due to impoverished blood and showing itself in pallor, lack of ambition, despondency and nervousness; also in the great constitutional disturbances attending the period known as the change of life, Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are invaluable for women, whose health is always closely dependent on the state of the blood. They are sold by all druggists. A booklet of valuable information relating to the care of a woman's health at all important periods, and entitled "Plain Talks to Women," will be sent free in a sealed envelope to any one who chooses to write for it to the Dr. Williams Medicine Company, Schenectady, N.

METHODS OF PROLONGING LIFE British Scientist Says the Average of Life Has Been Extended Ten Years—But Others Question His Statement. The best way to live to produce health and happiness and to prolong life continues to be a never-ending problem. Has any progress been made toward its solution? Dr. Oliver Ferguson, a well known British scientist in a recent lecture at Oxford, said: "For those happy people who shall be living a hundred years hence there probably no longer will be any dread of infection, for perhaps before then—thanks to radium and its congeners we shall have exterminated all noxious bacteria, and our grandchildren, therefore, all will live a hundred years or more." He maintained that the average length of life has been extended about ten years within the last sixty, but the proof was apparently not furnished. On the contrary, a royal commission, investigating that subject in connection with the army, found a very serious deterioration in the British race. In this case proof was furnished in the increased difficulty of obtaining army recruits and in the character of the recruits when obtained. Premier Balfour found an explanation in the emigration from Great Britain and in the removal of the best of the "country people" to the towns and cities. Whatever the explanation, there is no question that there has been an impairment of the race in England. This does not appear to agree with Dr. Ferguson's statement as to an extension of the average length of life about a decade. That extension of life would be the result of better care of the health and would not accord with the finding of the royal commission. Progress is being made all the time in the discovery of the cause and cure of disease. Many—smallpox, for instance, which ravaged England in former time—are now comparatively unknown. This progress should have an effect in lengthening human life. That will be accomplished whenever proper attention is given to dieting and to sleeping. A well regulated system of eating and drinking, with plenty of sleep and exercise, will, as a rule, prolong the life of almost any person. But many take what they can get, though more choice might perhaps be exercised. The advocates of less food seem to present a good case. It is claimed that as a result of recent experiments in decreasing the amount of food efficiency was increased from 100 to 200 per cent. A champion wrestler increased his units of efficiency from 4,500 to 8,000. The smaller consumption of food is said to have been attended with greater keenness and energy and less disposition to become fatigued. Doubtless eating less and masticating the food better would result in a great improvement. But the majority of the human race seems indisposed to make the test.—Philadelphia Press. Bow-Legged Soldiers. Hereafter the War Department will not accept bow-legged recruits for the cavalry—so it is reported. How does the department expect them to maintain their seats in the saddle?

Sawdust Pavements Sawdust is lending itself to more and more uses constantly. Shipbuilders in England, France and Germany are now using what is called "stone wood" a mixture of sawdust with certain minerals, which, formed into slabs under hydraulic pressure, makes a surface which is safe to walk upon and will not burn or permit one to slip. This substance can be worked like any hard wood and is being extensively used.-Boston Globe. TEA The greatest tea-drinkers are full-bottom Dutchmen. There isn't much nervous prostration in Holland.

He was born in 1836 near Olmutz, Moravia. He fought in the war of 1866 against the Russians, and won distinction. He remained in the army until 1874, when he resigned to emigrate to America. He opened a model bakery in New York soon afterward, and at Christmas, 1878, he established the unique charity known as the "bread line," and ever since he had distributed unsold bread nightly to the needy. Mr. Fleischmann also established an employment agency, went personally among the unfortunate in his bread line night after night, and found work for the unemployed. Gifted Blind Woman.

Six Doctors Failed South Bend, Ind., Oct. 24 (Special) —After suffering from Kidney Disease for three years; after taking treatment from six different doctors without getting relief, Mr. J. O. Laudeman of this place found not only relief but a speedy and complete cure in Dodd's Kidney Pills. Speaking of his cure Mr. Laudeman says: "Yes, I suffered from Kidney Trouble for three years and tried six doctors to no good. Then I took just two boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills and they not only cured my kidneys, but gave me better health in general. Of course I recommended Dodd's Kidney Pills to others and I know a number now who are using them with good results." Mr. Laudeman's case is not an exception. Thousands give similar experiences. For there never yet was a case of Kidney Trouble from Backache to Bright's Disease that Dodd's Kidney Pills could not cure. They are the only remedy that ever cured Bright's disease.

WATSON, WOOD TEA Mention this paper when writing MILLE Miss Agnes Miller, of Chicago, speaks to young women about dangers of the Menstrual Period how to avoid pain and suffering and remove the cause by using Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. "To Young Women:—I suffered for six years with dysmenorrhea (painful periods), so much so that I dreaded every month, as I knew it meant three or four days of intense pain. The doctor said this was due to an inflamed condition of the uterine appendages caused by repeated and neglected colds. "If young girls only realized how dangerous it is to take cold at this critical time, much suffering would be spared them. Thank God for Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, that was the only medicine which helped me any. Within three weeks after I started to take it, I noticed a marked improvement in my general health, and at the time of my next monthly period the pain had diminished considerably. I kept up the treatment, and was cured a month later. I am like another person since I am in perfect health, my eyes are brighter, I have added 12 pounds to my weight, my color is good, and I feel light and happy."—Miss Agnes Miller, 25 Potomac Ave., Chicago, Ill. The monthly sickness reflects the condition of a woman's health. Anything unusual at that time should have prompt and proper attention. Fifty thousand letters from women prove that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound regulates menstruation and makes those periods painless. READ WHAT MISS LINDBECK SAYS: "DEAR MRS. PINKHAM:—Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has greatly benefitted me. I will tell you how I suffered. My trouble was painful menstruation. I felt as each month went by that I was getting worse. I had severe bearing-down pains in my back and abdomen. "A friend advised me to try Mrs. Pinkham's medicine. I did so and am now free from all pain during my periods."—JESSIE C.

PASSING IN THE FANCIES WORLD OF WOMEN Draped Shirred Waist. Full waists that are shirred and draped to form soft and graceful folds are among the latest features of fashion and are exceedingly attractive in the many pliable materials of the season. This one is peculiarly smart and includes a point at the front and the new sleeves, shirred to form two lengthwise puffs above the elbows. The material chosen for the model is willow green messaline satin with cream colored lace for chemise and cuffs, banding and bows of darker velvet, but there are many wool as well as silk materials that can be treated in the same manner with equal success, and, when liked, the deep cuffs can be omitted and the sleeves made in three quarter length. W. The waist is made with the fitted lining, on which the full fronts and back are arranged, and is finished at the neck with a roll-over collar under which the chemisette is attached. The sleeves are made over fitted inlings, which are faced to form cuffs, and are full above the elbows, finished with circular frills below which fall over the gathered ones of lace. The closing is made invisibly at the center front. The quantity of material required for the medium size is $4\%$ yards 21 inches wide, $4\frac{1}{2}$ yards 27 inches wide, or $2\frac{1}{4}$ yards 44 inches wide, with $3\%$ yards of all-over lace, $3\frac{1}{4}$ yards of bias velvet and $2\frac{1}{2}$ yards of lace to make as illustrated. Vogue of Light Materials It is astonishing how much thin materials, such as volle, crepe, etamine and others of a like description, are worn by well-dressed women during the winter nowadays. Naturally this does not apply to the tailor-made costumes, but last year the most elaborate gowns of these fabrics were to be seen under the handsome fur coats, and there is every reason to suppose that; they will be more in vogue, than ever. There is a fancy, too—which is to be noticed in many of the new Paris costumes and which will be equally pronounced during the autumn months. —for the skirt composed of two flouces, each flounce being adorned with from three to five bands of velvet in graduated widths. The flouces are deep, the upper one reaches above the knee, and this style of decoration is naturally more adapted to dresses of the material of which I have been speaking that are sufficiently amenable to lend themselves to elaborate trimming. WHILE THE TEA DREWS Flowered taffeta will make some charming winter frocks. Armholes are hiding under a narrow adjustment of trimming. Ruchings, ribbon scrolls and corings distinguish the new blouses. Don't have one of the new-old dolmans unless you can afford numerous wraps. Ornaments of leather and metal combined adorn tailored hats for fall wear. It is predicted that pinking will take the place of the strapping that has held popular fancy so long. The long coat or wrap is much more fashionable than a short one and in some instances a necessity. A buckle that extends an inch above and below the belt is a slight innovation in crush leather belts. Ruchings, pipings, gathers and frills multiply and overflow in the present scheme of dress ornamentation. Leather folds and cordings are decidedly smart for turbans intended for either automobiling, street wear or traveling. Mayonnaise Sauce. Put the yolk of a fresh egg in a bowl, and if the weather is warm stand the bowl in a pan of chipped ice and add half a salt-spoonful of salt and a teaspoonful of English mustard. Begin stirring the ingredients with a boxwood spoon. Stir continually always one way, describing a circle. It is more easily done by holding the bowl steady. After stirring about a minute or till the ingredients are well blended begin adding the oil, pouring it in drip COREAN CREPE WITH VELVET. A No one of the many Oriental silks makes more effective blouses than Corean crepe. This smart model is quite new and shows the material in willow green with trimming of chiffon velvet, square of net chiffon lined, collar and cuffs of lace. The trimming is particularly effective and quite new and serves to outline the tucke at the back, while it gives a stole effect at the front. To make the waist for a woman of medium size will be required 4 yards of material 21, $3\frac{1}{2}$ yards 27 or $2\frac{1}{2}$ yards 44 inches wide with $1\frac{1}{2}$ yard of all-over lace and $1\frac{1}{2}$ yards of velvet. by drop. As soon as the mixture is stiff and waxy add a few drops of tarragon vinegar and the same of lemon juice. Then resume the oil, dropping it steadily. Every time the mixture becomes too thick add a few drops of vinegar, but continue stirring. One yolk of an egg will stand the addition of a pint bottle of oil. Stop using oil when the mayonnaise is as thick as you wish it and when you have all you require for your salad. Military Effects Coming In Military effects promise to appear largely in the outdoor garments of women this fall. A new English long coat for stormy weather which has appeared on the market is frankly called the Militaire. It has two wide box pleats in the back falling from the yoke and belted in at the waist. The front is double-breasted, with a high, martial-looking, turnover collar, and it is finished with brass buttons. Pretty and Comfortable Coat. A loose, three-quarter coat, belted in across the back, exemplifies convenience and smartness in autumn coats. It is called the "Trossack," and is of neutral-colored cloth, which permits of its being exploited with skirts of any color in walking length. The Trossack is not a dress coat, but for all those day occasions when a loose separate coat is desirable it is going to be one of the smartest styles. Quaint Dutch Pillows. Taking advantage of the Dutch type of decoration prevailing just now, women skillful with pen or brush are making soil pillows of linen or coarse material, with a border of Dutch little folk, represented with joined hands and capering about in a lively manner. The middle of the pillow top is left plain and a border lined off with pen, brush or burning needle, and the Dutch figures are outlined and illuminated in the border. A champagne-colored material makes an artistic pillow and likewise pale green, with red and green of a darker shade for the dresses of the little folks. Delft blue and orange are other shades that may be chosen for such pillows with successful results. With the Housewife Soak gelatine in sufficient cold water to cover before adding it to jellies or creams. To remove any ordinary stains from ivory knife handles rub with emery powder. Yacht mops are great conveniences for dusting the bare floors so universally used now. Before boiling milk always rinse out the saucepan with cold water to prevent the milk from burning. The wax from dripping candles can be removed from table linen by a generous application of alcohol. Mix pastry several hours before it is to be rolled out and much labor is saved. It should stand in a cool place. When making mayonnaise sauce select a very cool place for the purpose. If made in a hot kitchen it is apt to separate in the process. To keep cheese from becoming moldy wrap the cheese in a cloth which has been dipped in vinegar and wrung as dry as possible. Keep it in a cool place. Stunning Tea Gown for a Brunette. A stunning tea gown for a brunette shows white shantung silk with a bolero anglaise. The bolero is caught on either side with shaded rosettes, showing three popular tints of orange, done in velvet ribbon, with streamers in the same shades falling to the hem of the gown. White velvet slippers and orange silk stockings are to be worn with this gown, which is an effective application of the craze fcr orange and white in combination. Cinnamon in Favor Cinnamon broadcloth, braided with black, is the combination chosen for one smart loose coat of three-quarter length that has recently crossed the water. Apropos of which there is a good deal of this red-brown tint apparent in displays of the newest outdoor garments. It is a warm red russet peculiarly appropriate for autumn, if not for most types of beauty. A. Serviceable Costume. Suits made with plaited skirts and tourist coats are essentially new, essentially smart and essentially serviceable. This one makes an admirable model and is adapted to all suit THE COAT ings, but is shown in dark blue cheviot with cuffs of chamois colored cloth and trimming of braid held by handsome buttons. The coat is one of the newest and is partly confined at the back by means of a strap that extends from seam to seam, while the fronts are loose. The skirt is nine gored and is laid in plaits that conceal the seams. To make the coat for a girl of 14 years of age will be required $4\frac{1}{4}$ yards of material 27, $2\frac{1}{4}$ yards 44 or $2\frac{1}{4}$ yards 52 inches wide, with $2\frac{1}{4}$ yards of braid; to make the skirt 6 yards 27, $4\frac{1}{4}$ yards 44 or $3\frac{1}{4}$ yards 52 inches wide.

Years of increasing business have taught us that "If cleanliness isn't next to godliness," it is, however, a great life preserver. We are right to attach this importance to our unsurpassed process of cleaning on account of its influence on health. But even the cleanest of us think it sufficient to have shirts and underwear regularly and frequently cleaned, and it is quite forgotten that it is hardly less important to wear clean suits, or clothes. You consider it sufficient to brush them, and to free their outsides from dust and dirt, not thinking that such garments, especially woolen ones, form a highly favorable nidus for bacteria and disease germs of every kind. In restaurants, theaters and concert halls, in ball rooms, in public conveyances and many other places, one is forced into close contact with all sorts and conditions of men—healthy and sick, dirty and clean—and have the most ample opportunity for accumulating disease germs from their garments. The normal activity of the skin as a remover of injurious matter from the body is impossible, except with porous and well-ventilated clothing. We take vapor and electric baths to open our pores and then cover them with clothes of which the pores are clogged with dirt and ancient perspiration. This ought to be enough to show that our outer as well as our inner garments should undergo a regular and thorough cleaning. Having been laconically shown that the cleaning of clothes is a primary requisite for sustenance of good health—a money saver as well—you should intrust such clothing to the or to firms whose reputation is valued too highly to turn out unsatisfactory work.
