To Negro Preacher at Presbyterian Banquet in Cincinnati --Policeman at New Orleans Loses His Job For Showing Respect to Negro Women.
Cincinnati. Oct. 20.-Rev. John F. Harper, pastor of the Carmel Presbyterian church at 22 Elm street, the only colored congregation of that denomination in Ohio, was refused a seat at the Presbyterian Brotherhood's banquet at the Business Men's Club.
Rev. Mr. Harper was not cognizant of the fact that the color line is stictly drawn at the Business Men's Club, and the non-attendance of colored men at any function given under the auspices of the club or with its sanction is embodied in one of the rules of that organization. It was the club, therfore, that informed Mr. Harper, through an intermediary, that his presence was not desired.
Mr. Harper is a member of the brotherhood and was among the first to purchase a seat at the banquet table. He arrived quite late, and while entering the door of the banquet hall he was asked to wait a minute. With a visibly embarrassed air Rev. Dr. Watson, of the Second Presbyterian Church emerged from the dining hall and spoke a few earnest words to Mr. Harper. Mr. Watson informed him of the existence of the rule and told him that the banquet was not open to him, and expressed his great sorrow over what he termed a regretable incident.
Mr. Harper accepted the matter in a good natured spirit and left the club rooms. A few of the brotherhood were aware of the situation and a few fully expressed themselves. One minister, who is at the head of one of the largest churches in the city, said:
"It is hard to believe that such an unpleasant affair could occur in the Republican North, where every man's conduct and deportment is not judgment by his color. Mr. Harper is a brilliant man of many intellectual attainments. He is polished and a deep theologian, a member of the Cincinnati Presbyterian Brotherhood, and of the action of the club, to say at least, is in my opinion, an insult to the brotherhood. Mr. Harper is not unused to his embarrassing predicament of tonight. I have been informed that he was barred from certain other privileges in one of the suburbs not so long since."
New Orleans, Oct. 20.—Court Officer Simon Chaix's reference to
VOL. XIII.
a negress as a "lady" in the Police Inspector's court not only cost him his place in the police department but his exhibition of temper caused him to be locked up on the charge of disturbing the peace.
Chaix, who was an officer in the Fifth Recorder's Court, was charged with conduct unbecoming an officer, it being alleged that he had taken part in the collection of a debt owned one Negro by another. According to the evidence presented against Chiax, a Negro woman had enlisted his services in forcing a Negro youth to pay her $4. It was about this time that Chaix made some remark about proving some point when "the lady" appeared.
'What lady?' asked Inspector Whitaker.
"Why, the one who, this boy says, asked for the money." replied Chaix.
'Do you call Negro women ladies?' asked the inspector, which question he followed by the remark that such terms would spoil every Negro in New Orleans.
After all the testimony had been taken the inspector again admonished Chaix for the use of such terms in speaking of Negroes and after fining him five days pay on the charge of taking part in the collection of the debt, he said:
"Chaix, you are a court officers in Republican Deibel's court. If you make a practice of calling those Carrollton Negroes 'Mr.' and 'Mrs.' and 'lady' and 'gentleman,' I think the sooner I transfer you the better off that community will be."
"Do whatever you want to do, yelled Chaix. 'You can do it! You can do whatever you like! You can do whatever you'—but a detective caught Chaix and ushered him out of the room.
The inspector then ordered the man brought back and told him that there was absolutely no occasion for his display of temper.
"Your sentence was a light one the transfer would have been for your good as well as that of everybody else. You are dismissed from the department."
Again the inspector got no further, for Chaix gave way to his temper and had raised his arms in a threatening attitude when Capt. Tim Driscoll, Patrolman Hyde and several others caught him.
Chaix resisted as he was being ushered from the room and yelled: "Don't brutalize me! He was taken to the Saratoga Street Station, where the charge of disturbing the peace was made against him.
HENRY A .BUCHTEL, Republican Candidate for Governor.
Automobiles in Austin.
A stranger standing on the corner of Sixth street and the Avenue yesterday upon seeing the big automobile belonging to the Union Transportation company pass up the street loaded with Negroes, was heard to remark: "I have been in Austin a week and haven't noticed a Negro riding on a street car, but every time I see one of these automobiles coming down the street it is generally filled with Negroes."
These observations impressed me so much I asked an old Negro if his race had decided to boycott the street car company for any reason. He promptly answered:
"Yas, sah, we doesn't popose to ride in no Jim Crow kyars. We've got dem ortomobels whut we kin ride in for a nickel an' do most of us either rides in dem or we walks." The stranger continued by saying

HENRY A. BUCHTEL
Candidate for Governor.
Rev. Henry A. Buchtel, candidate for governor on the Republican ticket, is the most popular man before the people at the present time for consideration, investigation and election.
The voters of Colorado, especially those who adhere to the Roosevelt ideas of public service and remedial legislation, have been clamoring for a big, broad-gauged, clean and aggressive man for governor of this growing state. The fair-minded, intelligent and tax-paying property holders have been worried for months for fear a professional politician or office hunter would be nominated as representing certain interests in business or factions in the party. This fear was fully dispelled when Henry A. Buchtel, chancellor of the University of Denver, was selected. The choice brought strength, hope and joy to every loyal Republican. Chancellor Buchtel is a straightforward, earnest man, full of energy and love of decency in every walk of life. No stronger or more effective advocate of civic righ

the he asked the old fellow if white folks patronized the auto service, and he replied: "Yas, sah, some few of em do, whut don't keer nothin' for dey selves, but it's mostly cullud people whut rides in dem big ortomobeels. Dats de only way dey got to beat de Jim Crow law.—Austin Evening Tribune.
Colored Voters Enjoy Smoker
A crowd of colored Republican voters met at 221 Santa Fe avenue last evening and enjoyed a smoker which lasted about two hours. The speaker of the evening was Attorney Joseph H. Stuart of Denver. Mr. Stuart was a member of the Tenth general assembly of Colorado and is a speaker of more than ordinary repute. He outlined the issues of the campaign and gave the colored voters of
JCHTEL, Republican Candidate
teousness could be found anywhere in Colorado. Added to these virtues he is a scholarly man with strong convictions upon public questions and fully equipped with Spartan courage to tackle a difficult job and carry it through to successful completion.
Chancelor Buchtel, while a reformer, is not a fanatic. He is just the kind of a man that is wanted in public office. Now that the people have his consent to make the race, a pleasant, satisfied smile is spread over the face of the entire party. They know while he is a firm man he is not a fanatical crank with absurd fancies and experiments to put into operation. Dr. Buchtel does not feel that he has been called upon to regulate the entire universe nor to at once eliminate all the evil that the human family is heir to, but to conduct the affairs of state in the interest of all the people. He is in no sense a "grandstand player with a halo about his brow," but a man with knowledge and determination to conduct affairs along practical and sane lines. He will do his uttermost to improve the "tone and smell" of politics in

RACE NEWS
Gathered from Various Sources.
On the Republican ticket in Chicago, are three Afro-Americans Hon. F. L. Barnett. Judge of the Municipal Court; Oscar DePriest for County Commissioner and Dr. Alexander Lane for the Legislature.
The First African Baptist church of Philadelphia, Rev. W.
e for Governor.
Colorado and bring into operation various improvements already undertaken, rather than start new erasades on the order of "yellow reformers." There are no corporations big enough and powerful enough to cause Dr. Buchtel to waver a hair's breadth from the straight path of official rectitude. The Republican party is to be congratulated in getting Mr. Buchtel to make the canvas and every colored Republican ought to see to it that he is given their support so that your influence will be registered on the side of good government and a square deal for every class of citizens irrespective of color or social standing. We predict that Chancellor Buchtel and the Republican Legislature to be elected next Tuesday will give the people a splendid administration, one that will help improve future administrations and redeem the state from the odium into which it has fallen and be an example for every county and city in the commonwealth.
Good citizenship and the Republican party expects every voter to do his duty November 6th.
NO. 6.
A. Credit, D. D., pastor, recently erected and furnished at a cost of $100,000, was dedicated Sunday with appropriate ceremonies. The building is of the most modern architecture, and is the largest and finest colored church in the United States.
The Southern Railroad has been compelled to pay out $4,000 because it forgot to send a train after a party of 700 Afro-Americans who were holding a camp meeting at Tyners, Ga., and who were delayed a day over time.
Just before the arrival of the "Clansman" at Roanoke, Va., while Dorsey Patton, a white bill-poster, was tacking up pictures of Tom Dixon near the fair grounds, he was set upon by a group of indignant Negroes and badly beaten. Every picture of Tom Dixon found in the bill poster's possession, was torn into tatters and cast to the wind.
The American Negro workman has no equal on the globe, under anything approaching proper conditions. C. W. Chase, a millionaire of Gainsville, Fla., has lost $10,000 experimenting with Chinamen as substitutes for Negro laborers in his naval store work. He acknowledges that the Chinese are undisputed failures as substitutes, being willing workers, but physically too weak. Negroes will be put back to work.
New York, Oct. 15.—The Republican club of New York at a meeting today passed resolutions concerning the race problem in the South, a copy of which was forwarded to President Roosevelt. The resolutions requests the president to "designate a commission of impartial citizens to gather the facts and report upon the practicability of any action by any department of the government towards ameliorating the present condition of hardships, injustice or prosecution in religions where there is large population deprived of their civil and political rights and towards means that will promote and insure the enjoyment of one's civil rights."
Ben Tillman the "pitchfork Senator from South Carolina, addressed an audience in Augusta a few nights ago, and while he indulged in his usual manner of abusing the American Negro, he came out in bold language denouncing the custom practiced in many parts of the South of white men living openly with Negro women. He claimed that this custom should be as vigorously fought down as the white man fights to keep Negro men and white women apart. Echo: The Atlanta News, the paper most responsible for the riot in Atlanta, has taken up Mr. Tillman's utterances and is waging a vigorous war against this damnable practice, so detestable by decent people of both races.

LIGHT WITHOUT HEAT.
“And here is a candle to light you
to bed.” And it is an electric ght
without heat, if it is the realization
ot Dr. J, A. Fleming's hopes, An ex-
hausted gtass tube will contain a small
body, which when acted upon by elec-
trodes placed at suitable points around
the body will cause it to become bril-
Mantly phosphorescent, producing as
nearly as possible only luminous rays.
‘The theory {s that the luminous rays
are produced by vibrations of the cor-
puscles of atoms while the heat rays
are caused by vibrations of matter as
a whole, so that if the corpuscles can
be caused to vibrate without producing
vibration of the whole atom we will
hate practically cold light.
In Siam the number of rooms in a
house, of windows or doors in a room,
even of rungs on a ladder, must al-
waye be odd. Even numbers are con-
sidered unlucky.
RESERVE OPENED
HUNDREDS OF SOONERS CVADE
INDIAN POLICE. *
WILD SCENES REPORTED
eS SS
vation In Nevada Very Disorderly—
Lax Methods Work to Defraud Hon:
est Land Seekers.
‘Thorne, Nev.—The opening of the
Walker Lake Indian reservation Mon-
day was not as imposing as it prom
ised to be, on account of the fact that
countless numbers of miners had
flocked into it during the night and
early morning, completely overwhelm-
ing the Indian police, of whom there
were but fourteen to guard seventy-
five miles of territory.
While the opening was taking place,
Special Agent Parks of the General
Land Office, was waiting for
an answer to his dispatch
sent to the General Lana Of.
fice at Washington, Sunday night,
urging that the opening be postponed
on account of the irregularities he had
discovered. Parks pointed out that
the Indian police, who had been named
to guard the lines were not only :nade-
quate and ineMicient, but they had
taken money and liquor as bribes and
were intoxicated most of the time.
He stated in his dispatch that on ac-
count of the lax methods observed,
hundreds of prospectors had paid no
attention to the time set for the open:
Ing.
This news soon spread through the
camps where bona fide prospectors
had gathered to make a rush and as a
result there was a great deal of discon-
tent.
Renorts have reached here of nu-
merous shooting affrays in the vicinity
of the old Arastra gold mine, which
was the objective point of hundreds of
fortune seekers who had arrived only
to find that the land had already been
taken up. They then attempted to get
small sections, with the result that
blood was shed in numerous instances,
although no fatalities have been re
ported.
Special Land Agent Parks deplores
the fact that the rush was allowed to
take place, when it was known that
the laws of the United States in re-
gard to opening a reservation had been
evaded. He says that there is yet a
possibility that the present opening
may be declared invalid and a new
one called for.
Sub-Indian Agent Robert Lovegrove
made the sensational statement that
United States engineers who were sent
here for the purpose of carrying out
reclamation work on the portion of
Walker Lake reservation that had
beer. allotted to the Indians, had occu:
pled thelr time in placing launches on
the edge of Walker lake for the pur
nose of participating in the rush, con:
trary to the law which states that all
persons shall keep off a reservation
until the time fixed for its opening.
With the firing of a mighty blast of
dynamite from the top of Grant Peak,
the highest point in the adjacent
mountains, the reservation v as opened
at noon Monday. At the given signal
hundreds of searchers for gold hur.
ried helter-skelter over the boundary
lines of plain and mountain and before
the great cloud of smoke which rose
into the air from the dynamite oxplo
sion had drifted away, a spectacular
race of automobiles, race horses and
vehicles was on. So great was the
rush across the desert from the line
nearest Hawthorne that a number of
persons narrowly escaped being tram-
pled over, and in numerous instances
injuries were reported.
Horses were ridden till they
dropped and men recounted their ill
fortune when their automobiles be:
came stalled in the deep sands. Jaded
and overcome by thirst, numbers of
prospectors barely summoned enoagh
strength to make their locations.
‘Those who had waited for the signal
from the top of Mount Grant before
rushing Into the reservation, found
that all the most valuable claims, in
the vicinity of the rich Dutchman, Cot:
tonwood and numerous other creeks
emptying into the southwestern gec-
tion of Walker lake had been taken up
by men who had rushed in the night
before. Even men who employed
launches to take them across Walker
lake from the eastern side found that
their efforts were of no avail, as they
were much too late to be on an equal
footing with the men who had disre-
garded all law.
STANDARD OIL FINED.
Ohio Judge Overrules Motion for New
‘Trlal.
wienerres
Findlay, Ohio—In Probate Court
here Monday, Judge Banker overruled
the motion filed by the attorneys of
the Standard Oil Company for a new
trial and imposed a fine of $5,000 and
costs of the prosecutions In the recent
suit against the Standard Of] Company
here. 5
On motion of the defense, the court
ordered that the defendant company
be allowed forty days in which to pre-
pare and file its bil of exceptions in
the case, and on another motion by the
Standard Oil attorneys, Joseph 0.
Troup of Bowling Green, Ohio, and 8.
H. Tolles of Cleveland, the sentence
imposed was ordered suspended for a
period of sixty days for the purpose of
filing a petition of error in this case.
It was also ordered that the criminal
informations pending against John D.
Rockefeller, the Buckeye Pipe Line
Company and the Manhattan Oil Com:
pany be continued until the next term
of court.
The fine imposed by Judge Banker
was the limit for one offense, though
the law stipulates that each day that
the fllegal combination business 1s car-
ried on constitutes a separate offense.
Taking this view of the statutes, 1
was possible for the court to impose
®n aggregate of fines amounting to
over $6,000,000.

Women Have Pet Snakes.
A great many snakes aro imported
into England. There is a brisk de
mand for snake pets among rich
ladies. It’s a funny kind of pet, per-
haps, but they seem to like them, and
get quite fond of them. I suppose
it’s because ladies nowadays like the
unusual. Of course, these pet snakes
are all nonpoisonous.—London Morn-

Sinking Spells, Headaches and
Rheumatism all Yield to Dr.
Williams’ Pink Pills.
Mrs. Lizzie Williams, of No. 416 Ce-
dar street, Quincy, Ill., says: “Ever
since I had nervous prostration, about
thirteen years ago, Lhave had periodical
spells of complete exhaustion. The doc-
tor said my nerves wero shattered. Any
excitement or unusual activity would
throw me into a state of lifelessness.
At the begiuning my strength would
come back ina moderate time after each
attack, but the period of weakness kept
lengthening until at last I would lie
helpless as many as three hours at a
stretch. I had dizzy feclings, palpita-
tio. of the heart, misery after eating,
hot flashes, nervous headaches, rhen-
matic pains in the back and hips. ‘The
doctor did me so little good that I gave
| up his treatment, and really feared that
| my case was incurable
|." When I began taking Dr. Williams’
|Pink Pills my appetite grew keen,
my food no longer distressed me, my
beryes were quieted to a degree that I
had not experipuced for years and my
strength returned. ‘The fainting spells
left me entirely after I had used the
third box of the pills, and my friends
say that I am looking better than I have
done for the past fifteen years,”
Dr. Williams’ Pinle Pills are recom-
mended for diseases that come from im-
poverished blood such as anmmia, rheu-
matism, debility and disorders of the
Rerves such as neuralgia, nervous pros
tration and partial paralysis. They have
cured the most stubborn indigestion,

proper workand give strength that lasts.

depends so much upon her functions,
that the least upset of them affects her
whole system. It is the little things
that count, in woman’s life and health.
The little pains, and other symptoms of
womanly disorder, soon lead up to big
things,—-serious pains, serious diseases.
It is for just these ordinary, common,
womanly troubles, that the use of a
gentle, strengthening, female tonic, like
Woman’s Relief
has been found so successful, in thousands of cases,
in relieving and curing. ‘‘I had been troubled with
female complaints for 12 months,’’ writes Mrs.
Bettie Arp, of Ballplay, Tenn., ‘‘and although I was
under doctors’ care for four months, they did but
little good. I took one bottle of Wine of Cardui
and _one dollar's worth of Thedford’s Black-
Draught, and now I am better. 1 believe Cardui
saved my life. We are poor people, but I shall
always keep it in the house.”’ It relieves woman’s
worst pains and regulates fitful functions. Try it.

SCHOOL CHILDREN’S GIFT
Five Thousand Pupils in Colorado
Springs Schools Each Give One Cent
for Floral Offering to General W. J.
Palmer.
+ Colorado Springs—The physicians
in charge of Gen. W. J. Palmer at 11
o’elock to-night gave out the following
bulletin:
“General Palmer improved in all
particulars. He has made a decided
gain in voluntary control.”
Every one of the 5,000 school chil-
dren in Colorado Springs this ‘after-
‘tion donated 1 cent toward the pur-
chase of a number of beautiful floral
offerings, which. were sent to General
Palmer’s residence at Glen Eyrle this
evening. No movement of the kind
was ever known in the history of the
elty wherein each pupil in all the pub-
lie schools participated.
‘The suggestion came from Superin-
tendent John Dietrich, and met with
‘@ spontaneous response on the part of
the pupils. The flowers consisted of
chrysanthemums, roses and carna-
tions. The gift is especially appropri-
ate in view of the fact that General
Palmer's wife, now deceased, was the
first school teacher in this city. She
established a school in 1871, shortly
after the townsite of Colorado Springs
was laid out by General Palmer, and
long before the organization of a city
school system.
‘The following note accompanied the
flowers:
. “Please accept this floral offering
from the boys and girls of the schools
of Colorado Springs. Permit them all
to convey to you, in some degree, the
esteem in which’ you are held in the
hearts and minds of the children of
our public schools, It is with deep re
gret that we have learned of the sad
accident which has befallen you. We
wish for your speedy recovery, and
trust that, in the wisdom of a wise
Father, the life of one who has al
ways been so unassumingly thought
fut of the interests of the individual,
as well as of the community at large
may be spared for many years tc
come.”
EDUCATION BILL.
Into Pieces.
London.—The Hotise of Lords con-
tinues to make far-reaching changes
in the education bill and in liberal
circles the opinion is expressed that
if the opposition continues in its pres-
ent spirit the bill hardly will be recog-
nized when it returns to the House of
Commons. Clause two, of the bill, was
completed Wednesday, after radical
alterations, mostly by the large oppo
sition majorities.
There is a distinct atmosphere of
tension in the upper house.
The sittings now present a brilliant
and imposing spectacle, and the House
of Lords is so crowded that memlers
of the opposition occupy a consider:
able portion of the government seats
and the peeresses throng their special
galicries, A number of peers who
have not been seen in the house for
many years are now regular attend.
ants.
It apparently has been determined
that the ministry will not tamely s.u»-
nuit to the lords. This metamorphosis
was indicated by the president of the
Board of Trade, Lloyd-George, who,
speuking at Spalding Wednesday, de.
cizred that, the word of “re-cditing”
the bill would terminate in a way prob-
ably far from agreeable to the Houxe
of Commons. A majority of the peers
were endeavoring to establish the
principle of compulsory religion, to
which the country would not submit,
It was absolutely intolerable, said
Mr. Lloyd-George, that the Heuse of
Lorés should override the decisions of
the peeple at the last election, and the
government was determined io perse
vere with the bill. The people had
ourgrown the “old system of cate
chisms and the old teachings that they
were to be humble and lowly before
their betters, They would no loner
be content, the president of the Roard
of Trade said, in conclusion, with les:
sung in class humility.

the possession of a band of Iniian

to capture fifty Indian ponies which
were in care of five herders. As the
soldiers approached, the herders fled.
‘but while the soldiers were driving off
the ponies, a band of 100 Utes ap-
peared and circled the troops and

was taken from the soldiers,
As the Indians drove them away the

A SQUARE DEAL ON THA
TELEPHONE FRANCHISE.
The Colorado Statesman has no
fight to make on corporations. We
believe in corporate powers and
business. That these large inter-
ests are creators of. wealth, values,
prosperity, industry and ‘growth.
In full accordance with these views
this paper advocated and sup-
ported the Denver Gas and Elec-
tric, Union Pacific, and Moffat
franchises in the last election. In
the present election another tele-
phone company is seeking a fran-
chise at the hands of the people.
We have carried the advertise-
ments of both companies. We have
placed them squarely before the
people and we ask that they be
given a square deal in your vote.
There is competition in every busi-
ness, trade and profession in Den-
yer, and why should not the same
thing obtain with the telephone?
As a matter of business ethics no
one has a right to erush a competi-
tor except by fair means. If put-
ting up a better grade of goods
and selling them cheaper than your
rival forces them to the wall, then
they must leave the field, but not
to give them a chance to demon-
strate their ability and make good
is as unfair in the telephone as in
the shoe or laundry business. In
all of the signers against the new
company you do' not find any
colored people, for the reason that
we have felt and know the unfair.
ness of not being given a fain
change. The new company agrees
to give members of all races em
ployment and this means mueh te
colored Americans who have hail
doors closed against them for n¢
other reason than their color, anc
to be told that the time has no’
come yet to give the Negro em.
ployment in places of merit “on,
sider ‘‘the square deal’* argument
and act in accordance with it. On
the same ground as we stood for
the other franchises we stand for
the new telephone, that is, that we
treat all alike.
There is no question but what
the new company will carry its
franchise on November 6th, anc
that means an addition to ppecanes
ity to all classes, therefore we
urge you to vote for the Automatic
Independent telephone franchise

‘THE REPUBLICAN PARTY.
The Republican is a party with
‘a history of which it is not
ashamed, Its past record as well
as its present victories is its
crowning glory. It is the party
that saved the Republie from dis-
union, that wiped out slavery and
resumed specie payments. It is
the party that has won the con-
fidence and support of the major-
ity of the people of the Nation be-
cause it seeks to preserye national
life and conserve individual inter-
ests. It is the party that has car-
ried out its promises, redeemed its
pledges and discharged its respon-
sibilities regardless of the diffieul-
ties, abuse, misrepresentation and
vilification which has been heaped
upon it. The Republican party is
a party of the initiative and not
negation. It has moved along
paths where no precedent marked
the way. That it had to be cau-
tious and painstaking goes with-
out saying. That it has been emi-
nently suecessful is beyond ques-
tion.
There are three basie reasons
why the people favor the Republi-
ean party in Colorado this year—
reasons to which every perceiving
and reasoning voter must assent.
1. The Republican party braved
‘the bomb and press and stamped
out anarchy in this state. They
alone made it possible for work-
men of all shades of opinion, politi-
eal, sociological or religious, to
work when, where and for whom
they pleased, unvexed and unmo-
Jested by lawless characters. This
blessing was shared in by Demo-
erats, Socialists and others alike,
and yet they criticise the party
that put bread in their mouths and
peace in their homes.
2. The Republican party raised
the money and condueted the fight
that sent ballot box stuffers to jail
This great crusade was carried out
in the face of active and harassing
Democratic opposition in the
courts and in the press.
3. The Republican party prom-
ised in its platform two years ago
an honest, efficient and economical
administration and it has filled its
promise to the letter. Not a scan-
dal has marred its work, Thou-
sands of dollars have been saved
by the Republican party in the last
auditor's, seeretary of state’s, in-
surance, land, engincer’s, health,
legal and printing departments.
Not a single griticism is heard that
has the slightest basis of fact. To
preserve the peace, protect the life
and property, compel respect for
the laws, uncover conniving elec-
tion frauds, punish wrong-doers,
give a clean administration, a busi-
ness-like tone, an honest reputa-
tion to public affairs, certainly no
more was ever demanded of a
party and no more was ever per-
formed by a party than was given
to the Republican party in the last
two years. This is the guarantee
for the future. But notwithstand-
ing this splendid accomplishment,
no Republiean should relax his in-
terest in the combat until the last
vote is in the ballot box on election
day. The victory this time should
be a big one. We want no more
contests, Let each Republican do
his duty at the polls November 6th
and there will be no shadow of ex-
cuse for a difference of opinion as
to the results. Republican sticcess
means Colorado’s prosperity for
another two years.
GEORGE W. COOK.
No name from top to bottom on
the Republican ticket carries with
it more influence than that of

ticket carries with it more power

HON. GEORGE W, COOK.
Republican Candidate for Congressman-
aslaree:!
sate of Colorado than the congress-
man-at-large. These two responsi-
bilities are fully met and comple-
mented -in that veteran and well-
known and well-liked public citi-
zen, George W. Cook of Denver.
‘The moment his name is men-
tioned the people of this city and
state and the United States asso-
ciate with it the Cook drum and
bugte corps and the in blue.
Wherever the drum corps hus “one
—and it has gone éyeryyhere—
for when Colorado wants to display
her gallantry and eall attention
to her enterprise the Cook | rum
corps is the one means to strike
inspiration and im Sto the
Rocky mountain seetion, Phe Den-
ver delegation are sure to make a
hit abroad with the Drum corps.
Besides General Cook was the
one man who so successfully plan-
ned and conducted the Grand
Army re-union, held here two years
ago, which brought more people to
Denver and Colorado than has ever
been in our city and state before
or since.
Mr. Cook would haye been
elected-as commander in chief of
the G. A. R. but his modesty and
sense of fairness said thai this
honor should go to others who were
more justly entitled py reason of
years and service than himself to
this high office.
Mr. Cook has now been ealled by
the Republican party, with whom
he has been identified sinee child-
hood, to succeed the Honorable
Franklin E. Brooks of Coloradc
Springs for the office of eongress-
man-at-large. There ean be nc
question that he is the most popu-
lar man in the state to make the
race and there is not the least
shadow of a doubt that he will re-
ceive an overwhelming majority
vote.
That Mr. Cook is a clase and life
long friend of the colored people
goes without saying, and that the
colored voters of the state will rally
to his standard and put in a strong
vote for George W. Cook next Tues-
day is wothout any question. It is
a pleasure to work for and support
a true, a tried, dyed-in-the-wool
Republican and Mr. Cook is one of
these kind.
The Colorado Statesman pledges
you a full, strong and willing col-
ored vote on next Tuesday. Mr.
ee, and we now and here con-
gratulate you upon the honor and
place so suecessfully won and so
richly deserved,

WILLIAM P. HORAN.
Democratic Candidate for Coroner.
Wm. P. Horan the popular and courteous undertaker whose cut appears herewith is a candidate before the people for the office of coroner for the city and county of Denver. It is indeed gratifying to the Negro voters to know that they will have the opportunity to vote for such a man for the office of coroner for it is an undisputed fact that Mr. Horan's treatment to the colored people of Denver has always been such that has won for him only the highest commendation. He is fair and lenient in all his business transactions and takes pride in condoling those who are bereaved. We hear his name mentioned frequently by Negroes that he will be the next coroner and all deem it a pleasure to cast a vote for him.

Jackson who is a member of the Republican State Advisory board was the presiding officer and introduced the speakers in his usual unique manner in fact there is no one more adapted as a presiding officers than Mr. Jackson and it is always a pleasure to listen to his short, but spicy remarks in his preface of speakers.

The fact that he does a great business for the colored people of Denver is a sufficient proof of his just treatment for which he will be remembered on November 6th by the loyal support of the Negro voters.
Mr. Horan has lived in Denver since 1887, coming here from his native state—Massachusetts. He first opened an undertaking establishment in the Charles building which quarters his business outgrew. He then moved to 18th and Stout, where he remained until he erected a building at 1527 cleveland Place with still larger quarters, in fact it is the finest undertaking establishment in the West. Thus his success in business is a high recommendation of his square dealing to all.

ularity and worth as a citizen and a business man is too well known to give a full biography. As a campaign manager, he is recognized as one of the most astute in the West. Mr. Jackion is engaged in the Shoe business, being the manager and promoter of the Jackson Shoe Co. at 1865 Curtis street, where he is doing a thriving shoe business both in the retail and repair department. As a successful business man we have but to refer to his past record which stands as a phenomenal reflection in the business world.

President WI!l Grant the Islands Rep-
resentative Government.
Washington.—The President is pre-
paring to redeem his promise made
to the Philippine people, through Sec-
retary Taft, that they-shall have « par-
jiament of their own, conditioned
supor thelr good behavior for a term
‘of two years, and it is understood that
Secretary Taft himself will proceed to
the Philippines next spring to witness
the installation of the new. form of
representative government, On March
27, 1905, the Philippine census was
published and consequently two years
from that date, March 27, 1907, under
the terms of the act of Congress, the
President will direct the Philippine
commission to call a general election
for the choice of delegates to what
will be known as the Philippine as-
sembly. *
‘This body is to take over all legis:
lative powers heretofore exercised by
the Philippine commission in ail parts
of the archipelago not inhabited by
Mcros and non-Christian tribes.
As this date draws near the Phil-
ippine people are, showing signs ot
agitation, and to the officials here it
is evident that they are expecting
some benefits that cannot at once be
realized. For instance, the assembly
pf provisional governors recently in
session in Manila with the view to ar-
ranging the preliminaries for the meet-
ing of the Philippine assembly is re-
ported to have. recommended that the
suffrage be widelygextended.
It is pointed out here that this is
not possible, for the reason that the
act of Congress under which the as:
sembly will be convened expressly
states the qualifications of voters.
These, in brief, are that the yoter
must be at least twenty-three years of
age (which was the Spanish require:
ment); must be able to read and write
either Spanish or English; or must
own a certain small amount of prop:
erty or must have been in the past an
officeholder under the Spanish gov:
evnment. ‘These qualifications were
framed upon the old Spanish practice
and no Philippine assembly can
henge them. The new assembly ot
legislature will consist of two houses
to be known as the Philippine com
mission and the Philippine assembly,
the latter to consist of not legs than
fifty nor more than 100 members. It
is probable that the present commis
aion will be merged in the upper house

CANAL ESTIMATE.
Million Dollars.
Washington—The Isthmian canal
commission desires an appropriation
of $25,406,258.73 to continue its work
on the Panama canal during the fiscal
year ending June 30, 1908. The esti
mates calling for this amount o!
money were made public Tuesday by
the commission. The commission ap
propriated for the canal work for the
fiscal year, which will end June 30,
1907, $25,456,451.08.
The’ estimates for the next ‘iter
year are surprisingly close to the ap
propriation for the current year, a faci
explained by the statement at the com
mission headquarters that in the ab
sence of exact knowledge of what wil
be required it was thought best to be
guided by the experience gathered
during the present year.
For the next year's salaries of the
commission's employes in the Unite¢
States $224,947 is needed, a slight de
crease from the present appropriation
For protection of its employes other
than laborers, the items are: Depart
ment of administration, $642,161; con
struction and engineering, $2,136)180;
zoue government, $684,270; health and
sanitation, $552,562.
For skilled and unskiiled labor the
items are: i
Admiaistration, $379,674; construc
tion and engineering, $8,201,966; gow
ernment, $25,244; health and sanita
tion, $643,079. For materials, building
ete. the items are: Administration
$204,637; construction and engineer
ing, $8,923,000; government, $339,406;
health and sanitation, $792,810.
The requirement of the Panam:
Railroad Company for re-equ:pment is
$1,885,000 next year as compared with
$1,000,000 this year.

have existed 25,000 years azo, and elv:
phants' teeth, from animals living
#iout 12,000 years ago. The discovery
of tapirs’ bones proves, they say, that
this section was once a jungle, for
tapirs live on roots along river banks
and elephants would not have been
found here unless it had been marshy.

Try Some Frozen Coffee.
Frozen coffee makes a desirable change when fruit creams and water ices are no longer a novelty. Grind very fine a quarter pound of freshly roasted coffee; put it in a cheesecloth bag, and then in a porcelain farina boiler; pour on it a quart of boiling water taken at its first boil. The water should be freshly drawn. Cover and let it stand away from the first for five minutes.
Remove the bag of coffee and add half a pound of granulated sugar. Dissolve this by stirring and strain through a fine cloth. When cold add the unbeaten white of one egg. Turn into the freezer and freeze, turning slowly until the whole mass is frozen. Use soft mush or wet snow. Serve in frappe glasses or lemonade cups.
If preferred, add cream in the quantity you do for coffee you intend to drink, just as you are going to put it in the freezer.
Black Hats for Winter.
If the hat prophets of Paris are to be believed, the winter fad will be the all black hat. They say this fashion will extend to the everyday toque as well as to the sweeping picture hat nodding becoming with feathers. Already small felts are draped lurantly in black velvet and finish with sweeping coq feathers of heavily built up with black grebes. Pine with great lot balls relieve the somberness of most of these all black chapeaus. A toque formed of a "cap" of black beaver is trimmed with black wings
on one side, with large jet pins holding them on. Velvet ribbon loops are tucked in under the back and set in so that they seem to fall naturally down on the hair.
A good man should have good manners. Nicht wahr?

She Is Made Well by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and Writes Gratefully to Mrs. Pinkham.
For the wonderful help that she has found Miss Cora Goode, 255 E. Chicago Avenue, Chicago, Ill., believes it her duty to write the following letter for publication, in order that other women afflicted in the same way may be
Miss Cora Goode
benefited as she was. Miss Goode is president of the Bryn Mawr Lawn Tennis Club of Chicago. She writes; Dear Mrs. Pinkham:
"I tried many different remedies to build up my system, which had become run down from loss of proper rest and unreasonable hours, but nothing seemed to help me. Mother is a great advocate of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound for female troubles, having used it herself some years ago and in less than a month I was able to be out of bed and out of doors, and in three months I was entirely well. Really I have never felt so strong and well as I have since."
No other medicine has such a record of cures of female troubles as has Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
Women who are troubled with painful or irregular periods, backache, bloating (or flatulence), displacement of organs, inflammation or ulceration, can be restored to perfect health and strength by taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
Mrs. Pinkham invites all sick women to write her for advice. She has guided thousands to health. Her experience is very great, and she gives the benefit of it to all who stand in need of wise counsel. She is the daughter-in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham and for twenty-five years has been advising sick women free of charge. Address, Lynn, Mass.
. Wrought Iron Wardrobes.
A German firm is achieving success in the sale of wrought iron wardrobes. They are supplied in four different sizes. The great advantages the wardrobe possesses are extreme durability, convenient ventilation and cleaning, and easy of transportation. The door is made of wire netting, and as the top slopes obliquely the contents are visible at all times.
A Good Record.
Out of all the external remedies on the market we doubt if there is one that has the record of that world-renowned porous plaster—Allcock's. It has now been in use for sixty years, and still continues to be as popular as ever in doing its great work of relieving our pains and aches. It is the remedy we all need when suffering from any ache or pain resulting from taking cold or overstrain. Allcock's Plasters are sold by Druggists all over the world.
Honey Vinegar.
One of the latest food products coming from Holland, that land of agricultural industry, is honey vinegar, which is now manufactured there on a commercial scale. The particular characteristics of vinegar made from honey are its agreeable aroma and pleasant taste.
Starch, like everything else, is being constantly improved, the patent Starches put on the market 25 years ago are very different and inferior to those of the present day. In the latest discovery—Defiance Starch—all injurious chemicals are omitted, while the addition of another ingredient, invented by us, gives to the Starch a strength and smoothness never approached by other brands.
Infant Trained to Steal.
A woman has been arrested in Paris carrying in her arms a four-year-old child which has been trained to snatch watches and scarfpins as its mother carried it through the streets. The infant was seen to grab two watches and seven pins in less than half an hour.
Will Hold Cremation Congress.
In order to combat the prejudice against cremation in Belgium, it has been decided to hold a cremation congress at Charlerol, under the direction of the Rationalist Federation.
Prospective employer—"Why did you leave your last place?" Irate Cook—"Humph! Why did yer last cook lave here?"
It takes a lot of common sense to get a man out of trouble a little nonsense got him into.

WHAT JOY THEY BRING TO EVERY HOME
as with joyous hearts and smiling faces they romp and play—when in health—and how conducive to health the games in which they indulge, the outdoor life they enjoy, the cleanly, regular habits they should be taught to form and the wholesome diet of which they should partake. How tenderly their health should be preserved, not by constant medication, but by careful avoidance of every medicine of an injurious or objectionable nature, and if at any time a remedial agent is required, to assist nature, only those of known excellence should be used; remedies which are pure and wholesome and truly beneficial in effect, like the pleasant laxative remedy, Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. Syrup of Figs has come into general favor in many millions of well informed families, whose estimate of its quality and excellence is based upon personal knowledge and use.
Syrup of Figs has also met with the approval of physicians generally, because they know it is wholesome, simple and gentle in its action. We inform all reputable physicians as to the medicinal principles of Syrup of Figs, obtained, by an original method, from certain plants known to them to act most beneficially and presented in an agreeable syrup in which the wholesome Californian blue figs are used to promote the pleasant taste; therefore it is not a secret remedy and hence we are free to refer to all well informed physicians, who do not approve of patent medicines and never favor indiscriminate self-medication.
Please to remember and teach your children also that the genuine Syrup of Figs always has the full name of the Company—California·Fig Syrup Co.—plainly printed on the front of every package and that it is for sale in bottles of one size only. If any dealer offers any other than the regular Fifty cent size, or having printed thereon the name of any other company, do not accept it. If you fail to get the genuine you will not get its beneficial effects. Every family should always have a bottle on hand, as it is equally beneficial for the parents and the children, whenever a laxative remedy is required.
SAVED THE CUSTOMER TROUBLE
Neat Way Waiter Secured Tip from "Close" Man.
There is a waiter in a Washington cafe, who is the acme of polite attention, endeavoring in every way to save his customers trouble. The other day a man came in who was sized up by John as probably a "little close," but the service was fully up to the standard. The bill came to 80 cents, and the man handed over a dollar bill.
John then proceeded to help the man into his coat.
"Where's my change?" the customer asked.
"Change, sah? Dar ain't none—dat was mah tip, tank yo', sah!" John said with a bow.
"But I hadn't given it to you," the man protested.
"Ob course not, sah. Ah wouldn't 'low yo' ter go ter all dat trouble, sah!" John said, with another bow, and the man went out, looking a trifle dazed.
SAVED BABY LYON'S LIFE.
Awful Sight from That Dreadful Complain, Infantile Eczema—Mother Praises Cuticura Remedies.
"Our baby had that dreadful complaint, infantile Eczema, which afflicted him for several months, commencing at the top of his head, and at last covering his whole body. His sufferings were untold and constant misery, in fact, there was nothing we would not have done to have given him relief. We finally procured a full set of the Cuticura Remedies, and in about three or four days he began to show a brighter spirit and really laughed, for the first time in a year. In about ninety days he was fully recovered. Praise for the Cuticura Remedies has always been our greatest pleasure, and there is nothing too good that we could say in their favor, for they certainly saved our baby's life, for he was the most awful sight that I ever beheld, prior to the treatment of the Cuticura Remedies. Mrs. Maebelle Lyon, 1826 Appleton Ave., Parsons, Kan., July 18, 1905."

W. N. U., DENVER, NO. 44, 1906.
If the AUTOMATIC phone is a failure and we are not going to cut rates and give better service, what is the monopoly-- the Colorado Telephone Company-- yelling about
The Truth Shall Win
WHAT THEODORE ROOSEVELT SAYS:
THE AUTOMATIC TELEPHONE COMPANY HAVE NEVER MADE A SINGLE STATEMENT TO THE PEOPLE OF DENVER THAT THEY ARE NOT PREPARED TO PROVE. Our request is for a franchise to build an up-to-date telephone system for Denver, using our own money, and after it is done, we do not expect the people to use it if it is not better and cheaper than the present system.
"Competition is the only possible means of controlling a monopoly. We have no laws that will reach them."
We said the Colorado Telephone Company had no franchise to install their plant in Denver and we are prepared to prove it.
There was an ORDINANCE passed by the Board of Supervisors and the Board of Aldermen on July 20, 1889, granting the Colorado Telephone Company the right to change their then present overhead system to an underground system, on certain streets in the city of Denver, and nothing more. Read the ordinance in their own ad. in the Denver papers of October 29th, or go to the City Clerk's office and see the original ordinance as we have and you will be convinced.
---
Also stop and think why the Colorado Telephone Monopoly are spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to Keep out a modern telephone system, Keep us from boosting Denver with $4,000,000 of our own money to be spent in your city.
We treat all races alike. Does the Telephone monopoly?
ISN'T IT BECAUSE THEY KNOW THEY HAVE TO GIVE YOU FAIR RATES AND GOOD SERVICE AND BECAUSE THEY FEAR COMPETITION.
