LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY RACEREPRE SENTATION Some Salient Points by a Forcible Writer, the Hon. Joseph H. Stuart. VOL. XIV. RACER SEN' Some Salient Points be the Hon. Joseph The main spring of modern politics is business. Its underlying principle economies. In its last analysis it is the problem of how can the "full dinner pail" be most surely secured and kept full. The politician who coined that happy slogan was a genius. He was talking right home to the human animal. The two great political parties are merely two huge corporations seeking to manage and control that business. The voters in each corporation are the stockholders of that organization. In the periodical elections they are called upon to choose the officers, directors and managers of this tremendous business concern. Certain large blocks of shares voting as a unit or almost so would reasonably claim just and equitable representation in the election of such officers, if the organization was an ordinary business affair. And let any one, if he can, point out wherein lies the difference in this feature between such a business corporation and a politico-business corporation? Now let us carry the simile farther. When the dividend period is reached the stockholders receive their distributive share of the profits precisely in proportion to the number of shares they own in the business. If there are large blocks of shares represented by a trustee for the use of beneficiaries, to him will be apportioned the dividend of profits coming to these beneficiaries. If the trustee is a traitor, is weak or incapable, or a tool for others and does not insist upon the rights of the beneficiaries, and thus loses them, either in the election of the management or the just distribution of the profits, what would happen to him and the organization that violated these world-wide and world-age laws and principles of all legitimate business? He would be instantly removed; he would find his occupation gone for further injuries to those he represented. The organization would have to answer in a court of equity for its injustice and discrimination. The stockholders so treated would withdraw from such a corporation. Let some one point out a shadow of difference between the course to be pursued, the remedy to be sought in the case supposed between the ordinary business corporation and the politico-business corporation. 'Tis true no court of law could be --- appealed to by these shareholders in the latter case to right their wrongs. But the court of public opinion in an intelligent and fair-minded community is a pretty safe court to consult. If the managers of this political organization did not appoint this agent to be used as a tool in their own selfish interest and against the plain rights and claims of these particular shareholders; or if after long and fair trial he has proved to be a weakling, failed to make good and misrepresented his supposed constituency, he ought to be removed, especially when that constituency has waked up and is clamoring for his retirement. That a large element of the voting population, more reliably Republican than any other, should be assigned a place or two on the ticket at every election for a minor office such as justice of the peace or state representative, or both, is not an unreasonable request. It would not be a very big thing if granted, but it would at least to that extent preserve the principle of representation, the recognition of a share in the councils of the party for which no number of cheap appointments can be the equivalent, from a political point of view. Speaking of appointments, "our leader" claims and gets his friends to assert that through him the race has more political position now than ever. This is utterly untrue and a showing and comparison will be made on this subject at the proper time. He stands absolutely without a following excepting two or three of his "advisory board" at the last election. His manner and methods have driven from him all the others who were efficient and could make good. One of them, and perhaps the most active and influential of this number, positively declares he will never again work with him. Another is so disgusted with him that he is now vigorously supporting the Democratic party. He did yeoman service for the Republican party at the election of 1906. Under this leadership more colored Republicans have temporarily turned Democrats than ever before. In the spring campaign he called a meeting of colored Republicans in East Turner hall. An intelligent young and popular Republican whom he had slighted and ignored in the campaign of 1906 because he State Hist & Nat Hist Society State House tronizing RADO THE JOURNAL DENVER, CO onizing Tho ADC THE JOURNAL DENVER, COLORADO, SA DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, AUGUST 15, 1908. happened to be intelligent and high-spirited, called another and bigger meeting of independent colored Republicians a few days after. And how they supported Mayor Speer and his ticket is a matter of recent history. With this "leader" it is a crime to be intelligent and have some spirit. Because the leading colored man of Pueblo had made several stirring speeches in the campaign of 1904 and received great praise for them he was turned down and excluded from participation in the campaign of 1906 by this "our leader." The two leading politicians of Colorado Springs, one a newspaper publisher, received similar treatment because of their ability. None were recognized in this county for the same reason, except they had trained themselves to do some good bootlicking. It was the talk of the town that it was more difficult to see this great man and have an audience with him than it is to see the gentlemen, his masters, who are responsible for him. If a dissatisfied colored Republican wanted to find out something or make a complaint to the real bosses, he was told to go to "your leader." This has gone on so long that many of these voters in sheer disgust have become independent Republicans. From the experience of others as related to the writer he imagines that if these gentlemen designed to listen to any protest from the colored voters, their answer would be something like this: "Why 'your leader' and representative is quite satisfied. He was a candidate for the legislature; we didn't put him on the ticket but he is quite content for we have given him some money to round up you folks and see that you vote right. Go to him." Now that is an answer that ought to satisfy the most exacting and high-spirited people, if in truth and in fact he was their accredited leader and representative chosen by them. But when he was selected solely by this same machine because he is a weak sister and could be used as a tool in their hands to bring about the very results complained of, then the case is different. The National Medical Association of Physicians, Dentists and Pharmacists meets in its tenth annual convention at the Plaza Assembly Rooms, East Fifty ninth street, New York City, August 25, 26, 27, 1908. Enthusiasm in this convention is running high. Several hundred delegates from all parts of the country and from adjacent islands are preparing to attend. The organization in the past four years has increased its membership by 600 per cent. This association has in its ranks many of the leading men of the professions represented, and a program has been arranged which will furnish an intelligent and scientific feast. --- It cost the citizens of Alton, Ill., $2,503.52 for attempting to prevent colored children from attending their public schools. Jackson, Mich., August 4—Miss Cora McIntyre, a former Jackson girl, a graduate of the high school in 1901 and later a student at Wilberforce college, has just been appointed cashier of the Crown Savings bank at Newport News, Va. She is said to be the only woman bank cashier in the United States. Baton Rouge, La.—A $2,000 fine was imposed on the St. Louis, Iron Mountain & Southern railroad by District Judge Brunot for failure to provide Negro passengers accommodations as good as those furnished white patrons The matter was carried to court by the state railroad commission to sustain its ruling that equal accommodations must be furnished both races. The federation of Colored Women's Clubs of Alabama has established a reformatory for Negro boys out at Ft. Meigs. It has purchased twenty acres of land and erected a house and at present there are several Negro boys there, gathered from all parts of the State. The colored women of Alabama are enthusiastic and there is the greatest activity among them to establish and maintain a reformatory. Miss G. A. Bryant, of Mobile, is the assistant recording secretary. Miss Blanche Wright, of Chicago, has been transferred to the office of the auditor for the Navy Department, at $900 per annum, and will act as private secretary to Auditor Ralph W. Tyler. Miss Wright was appointed last year from the civil service register to a position as stenographer in the supervising architect's office, but after a stormy experience, in which her color is said to have figured to her disadvantage, she was informed that there was no work for her there and that she would be dropped at the end of the fiscal year, June 30. Rather than see a deserving young girl of his race thus lose out, Mr. Tyler came to her rescue and asked that she be transferred to his office at a good salary. This generous and thoughtful act of Mr. Tyler places him in the very highest regard of every Negro woman in the country. We are so glad to know that there are men who are not afraid to stand up for the women and do not find some flimsy excuse for not coming to their rescue. INTERESTING MOVEMENTS National Negro Business League. Register and Primaries. The Young Men's Christian Association. NATIONAL NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE The National Negro Business League will hold its Ninth Annual Session in the city of Baltimore, Md., August 19th, 20th and 21st. A program of the meeting is now before us. It contains many topics of vital importance to the developing commercial life of our people. Gathering the successful and struggling workers of our race from all parts of the nation, this meeting easily becomes a symposium of all our hopes and successes. From its deliberations, and the many interesting stories of struggles for better things, goes out and influences each year that adds a few more workers to the already large body. The business men and woman of the race are becoming such a definate and impact body that the measure of their influence for good in the most remote and isolated communities is hereby understood. Last year the meeting of the League at Topeka done much to rouse renewed energy and enthusiasm among our people. All over the West the number of Negro business men, business ventures, and enterprises have increased and it is gratifying to note the presence of increased capital in already established businesses as a direct result of the words of encouragement spoken in Topeka. Colorado with a very small Negro population has a strong State League. Its members are active young men who realize the value to the race of successful enterprises and they are laboring earnestly to interest all classes in this work. Our League will send one of its strongest men as a representative to the Baltimore meeting. A man capable in every way to tell the story of the West and the great opportunities for development. The Western Negro will soon become as powerful a factor in our growing commercial life as those of the South and East. REGISTER AND ATTEND PRIMARIES. Every voter is more or less interested in the coming primary. Our people, along with all other citizens, are interested in securing the very best men to fill positions on the various tickets to be nominated. In order to do this and weild the full measure of our influence as voters and citizens we must register. We must see to it that our names and the names of NO. 47. all qualified voters appear on the election rolls. In a growing and rapidly developing commonwealth like Colorado, every citizen owes it to himself and to the community to exert his influence for good. We need good men to fill all offices of public trust. We need the strongest and most patriotic men and women to guide the ship of state. To have such officials, we must be interested in the machinery that makes nominees. The primaries are the place to make your influence for good felt. This is a great state. It has a great future and all of us owe it to the state to do our best for the general good. Prepare therefore to go to the primary and select good men and true who will reflect in the men named on the tickets the sentiment of the best citizens. Be sure and register.—Be sure and go to the primaries. HEIPING THE COMMUNITY. Denver is a beautiful city. It is the social, political and financial center of Colorado. It is the Mecca each year of thousands of tourist and travelers. Here comes hundreds of our people seeking recreation and pleasure. Here are located more of our people than in any other section of the state and possibly of any of our mountain towns. Here we have the largest and finest churches and auxiliary organizations. Here we are trying through these several organizations to help in the great work of making Denver a bigger and better city. A movement has been started by several ministers aided by many of the laity; for the organization of a Young Men's Christian Association for the benefit of the hundreds of young colored men who live here or who, find themselves a guest of Denver for awhile. This move is deserving the hearty support of all our people. Thus far the work has been done by a few. Now it has reached a point where to be successful it must have more workers. The workers are asking all interested in the welfare and uplift of the race to lend a hand in this work. Meetings are being held in the various churches now looking to the raising of funds for the securing of a suitable building and equipment. Denver can do as well as hundreds of other places. With a Young Men's Christian Association providing pleasant reading rooms, athletic departments, and bathing facilities, and the surrounding of our young boys and young men with a wholesome moral atmosphere, much good for the race and our city will be accomplished. Now can't you do something. Its a good work. Push it along. StS eS ae ee) a pag aS ae a SS The Denver Barber’s Supply G. 1008 FIFTEENTH STREET, DENVER, COLO.

He said it was like the rage of a waiter that he had noted one afternoon at luncheon. “At luncheon, Mr. Evans said, he called his waiter’s attention to a dead fly in some dish or other. “The waiter, as he took the dish away, muttered with a malevolent look at the limp insect: “Td give a two-dollar bill if I knew for certain that this was the fly that’s een buzzing about my nose all the morning.’ BEGINNING EARLY. oo oF EE 0 ON nS CeO ‘Ig = et LS “T have already ae eer Te cousins 2 have already promised ten cousins to marry them.

THOUSANDS PRESENT CITY PROFUSELY DECORATED AND UTMOST GOOD FEELING PREVAILS. Lincoln.—Under the burning rays of an almost tropical sun and in the presence of a vast assemblage which cheered him to the echo, William Jennings Bryan Wednesday received from Henry D. Clayton of Alabama, formal notification of his nomination for the presidency of the United States. Thrice honored by the Democratic party as its standard-bearer, Mr. Bryan plainly exhibited the pleasure it gave him to once again proclaim the principles for which he stood. His nomination for a third time, he declared in his speech of acceptance, could only be explained by a substantial and undisputed growth in the principles and policies for which he, with a multitude of others, had contended. "As these principles and policies," he said, "have given me whatever political strength I possess, the action of the convention not only renews my faith in them, but strengthens my attachment to them." The ovation accorded Mr. Bryan as he rode through the streets of Lincoln on his way to the state capitol, where the exercises were held, was non-partisan in character. It was the homage of the citizens of the western city of the plains toward a distinguished neighbor. Almost the entire Republican administration was represented, Gov. George L. Sheldon and many state officers lending their presence, both in the parade and on the platform. Before coming to Lincoln from Fairview, four miles distant, Mr. Bryan received over 1,500 visitors. To one and all he extended a cordial greeting. His arrival shortly after 12 o'clock at the Hotel Lincoln, where he and John W. Kern, the vice presidential candidate, were the guests of honor at a luncheon to the committee on notification, was the signal for an outburst of applause. He immediately was surrounded by a great crowd and was kept busy for some time shaking hands. Never before had Lincoln streets and buildings had such a gala appearance; never had the profusion of banners, streamers, bunting and photographs flashed forth to dazzle the eyes of the myriads of visitors. Around the mutilated Taft banner a crowd of curious visitors was clustered. With a notoriety almost nationwide, the banner was almost the first point of interest visited. The route of the parade carried Mr. Bryan directly under the banner, but no notice was taken of the fact by him or his party. The statehouse grounds were a mass of humanity and Mr. Bryan's appearance on the platform was greeted with vociferous cheers and handclapping. The ceremony of notification was conducted on the north front of the capitol building. The balconies and every window were jammed to overflowing. Not a single incident occurred to mar the proceedings. The police arrangements were excellent. Realizing that the force was not sufficient to cope with the great crowd the adjutant general of the state, at the request of Mayor Frank Brown, ordered out a company of the Second Nebraska regiment, and with their assistance perfect order not only along the line of march, but within the capitol grounds, was maintained. Automobile Accident Colorado Springs.—As a result of the bursting of a tire of a large automobile, William M. Bainbridge, formerly superintendent of the El Paso mine, and one of the best known mining men in the West, was pinned under the car, which turned turtle, sustaining a broken collar bone, and, it is feared, internal injuries, at Dead Man's canon, twenty miles south of here on Saturday. Mrs. Bainbridge, who was also caught under the car, was badly bruised about the body and face. Their three little daughters, also passengers in the machine, were thrown clear of the wreck and escaped with minor bruises. Printers Will Eight Tuberculosis Boston.—Favorable action on the appointment of a committee to investigate, report and remedy if possible the ravages of tuberculosis insofar as it vitally affects the members of the organization, and the defeat of the proposition for a convention every five years instead of annually, were features of the meeting of the International Typographical union Tuesday. The action on tuberculosis followed an interesting and lengthy paper by H. Russell Wray of the Chamber of Commerce of Colorado Springs, who spoke particularly of the advantages of the West in the treatment of the disease and of the success of the Union Printers' Home in his city. Edison's Flying Machine. New York.—Thomas A. Edison had Henri Farman, the aviator, as a guest at his laboratory in Orange, N. J., Monday to show him the flying machine which he has invented. Mr. Edison explained fully the principles on which his invention is based. These are said to be those of the gyroscope or uplifting fan, and the foreign aeroplanist was greatly impressed. He declared that they embodied far better ideas than the machine which he had brought from France for his exhibitions in this country.

Knabenshue, with his famous passenger carrying airship, will arrive at the Colorado Interstate Fair and Exposition grounds, Denver, August 25th. Pain, the fireworks king, will arrive there on the same date. These are two of the big attractions at the Denver fair and exposition to be held September 7th-12th. Knabenshue's airship is the largest now in existence, except the one built by Walter Wellman for Arctic exploration. It can carry two people, aside from Knabenshue. This will be the first opportunity western people have had of seeing an airship that not only actually flies, but carries passengers. Pain gives the carnival of Naples, requiring 300 people to produce and comprising ballets, vaudeville, acrobatics, hippodromes, feasts and fetes, followed by the eruption of the volcano, Vesuvius, and the destruction of the mimic city of Naples and ends with a $1,000 display of fireworks. This is said to be the most spectacular pyrotechnical spectacle ever produced by Pain, and has been a big sensation at Manhattan Beach, New York. At a special meeting of the Boulder city council Monday night a $30,000 bond issue for waterworks improvements was authorized and a bid of W. E. Sweet & Co. of Denver was for the entire issue at ninety-five cents was accepted. The bonds draw four and a half per cent interest. Four miles of the new state highway has been completed through the most difficult part of the mountains and work from now on will be comparatively easy. The work on the road to Trinidad can now be completed with little blasting and filling in. S&N GARMENT STORE 925-16TH ST. OPP.

THE NATIONAL BUSINESS LEAGUE. The National Negro Business League convenes in its annual session in Baltimore next week. The Far West has not been saying much about this meeting this year, possibly because our minds have been diverted by other big meetings, and possibly because it takes a year's profits in business to get to Baltimore. If we had just thought of it in time, it would have been a nice thing to choose some native Oriole as delegate, collect his expenses and send him "Back, back, back to Baltimore." For Baltimore is surely a long way back. WHY WE HOWL It is not at all in a spirit of hostility that we repeatedly urge the Republican leaders of Denver county and of the state to pay more attention to the colored vote, nor does it give us any pleasure to point out the ill results of past neglect. It is decidedly distasteful to us to be compelled to harp upon this score, but we know the conditions that exist among the colored people and we have seen these conditions grow up, year by year, and our complaints are founded as largely upon our desire for party unity and party success as upon our wish to see the colored voter make natural progress in his political sphere. Progress is just as essential, just as natural and just as certain to the colored people as to any other element, and if it cannot be attained through a plain and natural course of development it is sure to find some way to demonstrate its resistless activity in every human rank. Restlessness among colored voters is the natural result of stinted privileges, for it is altogether unnatural for American citizens of any hue to remain content under actual conditions which do not measure up to those ideals which are the boast of freemen. For a long time past the colored vote has been handled as if it were a mere inalienable adjunct to the Republican party, which required no consideration other than an eloquent reminder of its own history, to hold it loyal, in the main, to any candidate or principle that the party organization might endorse. This simple course has appeared successful, not because it was logical, but because other conditions have helped to support and maintain it. But the signs are abundant that it has run its full length, for despite the most earnest persuasion and the most solemn declarations of racial interest, we have seen our voters deserting our ranks and gaining more practical benefits from those that we have long considered our political enemies. The policies of war apply in politics and everything becomes fair to the opposing forces in close campaigns. We are not unmindful of our modest representation in minor political places, but the clamor for a more honorable standing in the party organization is in our ears, and we are merely trying to impress Republican managers with the logic of the claims and demands of that progressive element among the colored folk which is awakening to a rational realization of its material needs. MR. BRYAN AND THE SOUTH. Several southern daily newspapers and a considerable number of southern politicians have expressed anxiety as to the exact feeling that William Jennings Bryan entertains for the Negro, and the inducements he may offer to secure a portion of the Negro vote in the coming campaign. Any effort that Mr. Bryan may make to win Negro support will be resented by this rabid branch of Democracy as an unpardonable saerifice of Demoeratie principles. "The paramount political question in every southern state is the race question," says the Baltimore Sun. "It is that question which keeps the south solid, and a man who asks for the vote of the south can not avoid it when his position is called in question." The News and Courier, of Charleston, S. C., wants Mr. Bryan to answer three questions, viz: "First: If elected president, Mr. Bryan, will you attempt any interference with the conditions of Negro suffrage in the southern states? Second: Will you make any effort to restore the Negro soldiers who were dismissed from the military service of the country because of the affair at Brownsville, Texas? Third: Will you appoint Negroes to official places in the federal service?" We don't suppose that Mr. Bryan will answer these questions whether propounded by southern Democrats or northern Negroes. We scarcely believe that even Mr. Taft would care to answer all of them publicly. But Mr. Bryan's real attitude might be easily guessed. To the first two questions it is reasonable to expect that Mr. Bryan would answer "No," if he answered at all. No Democrat can be expected to take any such high ground. There are not many men of either political faith who could be expected to answer these questions in the affirmative, and there are no Democratic martyrs. But as to the third question, we do not believe that any man great enough to become a candidate for president could be narrow enough to answer it in the negative. No man who would not appoint Negroes to office, and who will so declare, can be elected president of the United States. So, there you are. If the South don't like that prospect, it can cast its vote for Mr. Taft, who will appoint more Negroes to office than Mr. Bryan would appoint, if he had the chance. The South don't just realize that the sun is shining North of Mason and Dixon's line, and that its rays penetrate the epidermis of humanity in the incubating state. BY ANTHONY COMSTOCK, Secretary of Society for Suppression of Vice. Why are there so many divorces, so many unhappy marriages here in New York and elsewhere? JOSÉ MAYORAL I'll tell you why. It's the system of things. New York women, and women everywhere else in the country, too, have only themselves to blame. There are plenty of men who treat their wives like brutes, to be sure, but there is another side to the question. People do not wed nowadays—a great many of them—from the holier standpoints of absolute love for one another. They marry for position; they marry for money. After a while a life with this kind of a partner becomes irksome. "Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap." And the harvest from such marriages can only be divorce or misery. Many men in New York and the other large cities are under tremendous pressure all day long. When they come home they want peace and rest, and they are not allowed to have it. Home is an aggravation; not a place of retreat from care. If the men can't get rest at home, they will get it somewhere else. And so New York women—and other women elsewhere in this busy country of ours—have only themselves to blame. I am not shielding the men at all, but the women must bear their share of the responsibility. Considering that we have to spend the whole of our lives in this human machine, considering that it is our sole means of contact and compromise with the rest of the world, we really do devote to it little attention. When I say "we" I mean our inmost spirits, the instinctive part, the mystery within that exists. And when I say "the human machine" I mean the brain and the body—and chiefly the brain. The expression of the soul by means of the brain and body is what we call the art of "living." We certainly do not learn this art at school to any appreciable extent. At school we are taught that it is necessary to fling our arms and legs to and fro for so many hours per diem. We are also shown, practically, that our brains are capable of performing certain useful tricks, and that if we do not compel our brains to perform those tricks we shall suffer. Of course, school is merely a preparation for living; unless one goes to a university, in which case it is preparation for university. One is supposed to turn one's attention to living when these preliminaries are over—say, at the age of about 20. When we have been engaged in the preliminaries to living for about 55 years we begin to think about slacking off. Up till this period our reason for not having scientifically studied the art of living—the perfecting and use of the finer parts of the machine—is not that we have lacked leisure—most of us have enormous heaps of leisure—but that we have simply been too absorbed in the preliminaries—have, in fact, treated the preliminaries to the business as the business itslf. Then at 55 we ought at least to begin to live our lives with professional skill, as a professional painter paints pictures? Yes, but we can't. It is too late then. Neither painters nor acrobats nor any professionals can be formed at the age of 55. Thus we finish our lives amateurishly, as we have begun them. And when the machine creaks and sets our teeth on edge or refuses to obey the steering wheel and deposits us in the ditch we say, "Can't be helped!" My aim is to direct a man's attention to himself as a whole, considered as a machine, complex and capable of quite extraordinary efficiency for traveling through this world smoothly, in any desired manner, with satisfaction not only to himself but to the people he meets en route and the people who are overtaking him and whom he is overtaking. My aim is to show that only an inappreciable fraction of our ordered and sustained efforts is given to the business of actual living as distinguished from the preliminaries to living. Earning a Living for Soul and Body By REV. FRANCIS TIFFANY. Washington. sufferings of others, while, instead of rendering just equivalents of service, they selfishly substitute for them frauds and shams? Is not this the one chief reason why the world is so filled with heartburnings and wreck of trust of man in his fellow-man? Has any such being thus earned a living for his nobler soul? Nay, has he not thus dwarfed, degraded and killed it? No more demoralizing influence has ever been exerted on the mind of man than that which has grown out of the habit of drawing a marked line of demarcation between what goes by the name of the sacred and what goes by the name of the secular, between Sunday and Monday, between religion and business. The one has been called holy, the other profane, while in reality there is more that is holy, purifying, self-sacrificing and rich with the sense of moral obligation to others in the principles with which many a man pursues his daily calling—however humble—in life than in all his confessions of evil or outpourings of supplication, however genuinely sincere. For the one is habitual, the other exceptional. The one is lived in ennobling recognition of the brotherhood of man, the other too often in total oblivion of the mere existence of a larger humanity. No chain is stronger than its weakest link. It is there that the chain gives way in the storm and stress of anchorage on the threatening lee shore. And the man faithless to his task in welding that fatal link is the traitor responsible for the dire shipwreck from which all the conscientious work put into the other links by faithful arms and souls could never save the goodly ship. Largely Responsible for the Divorce Evil Considering that we have to spend the whole of our lives in this human machine, considering that it is our sole means of contact and compromise with the rest of the world, we really do devote to it little attention. When I say "we" I mean our inmost spirits, the instinctive part, the mystery within that exists. And when I say "the human machine" I mean the brain and the body—and chiefly the brain. The expression of the soul by means of the brain and body is what we call the art of "living." We certainly do not learn this art at school to any appreciable extent. At The great majority of people have to work, and work hard, to earn a living. There is no escape from this stern reality. Inevitably along with this, however, there arises a preliminary question, namely, to earn a living for what? For his mere physical subsistence? imperiously necessary as this is. How about earning, along with it, a living for his soul, for his sense of self, respect, his integrity, his pride in his calling, his fellow-feeling with others? How, on the contrary, about earning—or rather getting—a living in ways that center in self alone; that ignore the claims and For a Good Time and a Big Crowd THE CALENDAR GIVES THE FOLLOWING SCORE: Chicago | 1 | Denver | 1 | 2 Bloomfield Park | 0 | 2 AND IT WILL BE WHEN THE Two Jim's Club Big Picnic IS HELD THERE ON Wednesday, Sept. 2, '08 It will be the climax of the season's Big Outings and will no doubt establish a new record for the biggest crowd that has ever passed through the gates of this which is a mecca for pleasure-seekers.

Go Death to thy mission, the mandate was given, And the echo rolled back to the cham- bers of Heaven. On last Wednesday morning Mrs. B. C. Sanderlin, beloved wife of our long- time friend and esteemed fellow citizen, E. C. Sanderlin, was by the Powers that are summoned from hence to thence. ‘To the friends that knew her in this life she was charity itself and bountiful of heart. Among her great est deeds of charity was being one of the principal founders of Zion Baptist church. There are many others, but for this alone her memory will ever live. The sympathy of her many friends are extended to her life long helpmate and children in this trying hour of their bereavement. I read a story of antiquity of a woman who loved her children and loved her neigh: bors and always instructed them in the right. When she died her husband, children and neighbors suffered an ir reparable loss—but it also read that the recording angel in Heaven an. nounced a queen has come. Make her palace ready, So mote it be with Mrs. Sanderlin. — JUDGE THOMAS C., WILLIAMS.

Merri has been renewing her youth, This is a wonderful season for clover, and so the inspiration came for this party, which anyone can carry out who is within reach of clover blooms. For decorations use red and white clover in great masses on the porch, in the rooms and for a center piece. The latter would be lovely of the ex- quisite pink and white clovers. It is a beautiful variety, which if sold at so much a dozen hostesses would spend their last cent to get it. Then let the children weave clover chains (per- haps you'd like to make them your- self, as I did, sending your mind back to the time when a crown of clover was the height of elegance). Use these dainty chains as garlands over the table, or from the overhead lamp to the center. Of course, this affair Is informal, with the guests in tub suits as befit summer functions, Serve everything cold as far as possible. Have cold thinly sliced ham, veal loaf, Saratoga potatoes, sliced tomatoes and cucumbers on water cress sandwiches, individual moulds of gelatine topped with whipped cream, iced tea, and add clover honey with tiny hot biscuits to this repast and you have a menu fit for the gods. Make the place cards clover shaped. If there is a guest to be especially honored make a four-leaf clover for her place. We have all had “Do ye next thynge” preached to us, but “use what you have” should also become a maxim. Let us all use Mother Nature's bountiful storehouse more freely. In this way become acquainted with the so-called common flowers.

When the twelfth year of wedded life as been achieved, it is time to celebrate the “linen” anniversary. ‘This is an occasion much beloved by housewives, for was there ever a woman who did not glory in her linen closet? For the invitations use squares of linen written with indelible ink. The name cards may be done the same way. If possible, cover the floors with canvas, drape chairs and couches with white and hang white portferes. The host and hostess should don pure white for this occasion, and the dear Uttle blue flax flower should be used as a table decoration. A miniature spinning wheel makes a pretty center piece. The art of spinning has been re- vived, and if one is not numbered among the family treasures perhaps one may be borrowed for the evening, and then great amusement is afforded by arranging a spinning contest. ‘The prize is awarded to the guest who can spin the most perfect thread in flve minutes’ time. Each thread when finished to be tagged with the maker’s name and fastened to a square of black cloth hung on the wall. Later /a committee examines the threads, To find partners for supper wind a spider web with a card marked on the end of each: “Your partner is the one who has the mate to your card.” These cards are appropriately decorated with spiders in a web done in water- colors.

Second Ave., Anoka, Minn., says: "After lying for five months in a hospital I was discharged as incurable, and given only six months to live. My heart was affected, I had smothering spells and sometimes fell unconscious. I got so I couldn't use my arms, my eyesight was impaired and ive months in a hospital I was discharged as incurable, and given only six months to live.

"I had eczema for over two years. I had two physicians, but they only gave me relief for a short time and I cannot enumerate the ointments and lotions I used to no purpose. My ankles were one mass of sores. The itching and burning were so intense that I could not sleep. I could not walk for nearly four months. One day my husband said I had better try the Cuticura Remedies. After using them three times I had the best night's rest in months unless I took an oplate. I used one set of Cuticura Soap, Ointment, and Pills, and my ankles healed in a short time. It is now a year since I used Cuticura, and there has been no return of the eczema. Mrs. David Brown, Locke, Ark., May 18 and July 13, 1907." Mother's Accomplishment. In the Bohemian set of New York two of the popular members are a well known writer and his wife, who also has written several books. They have a daughter about four years old. Recently the little girl was visiting at the home of a friend and her small playmate asked her: "Can your mamma sew?" The daughter of the literary pair evidently was a bit chagrined. She could not remember that she had ever seen her mamma sew. She is a truthful child and would not claim any advantages she was not sure of, yet she felt that mamma's honor was at stake. "I don't know if mamma can sew," she replied, dubiously, "but she can smoke a cigarette." Her Reason. Not long ago there was tried in an Ohio court a suit for damages wherein in the principal witness, a woman living near Dayton, was induced to come to court only after several subpoenas had been served upon her. When the dilatory witness was finally brought before his honor, he said in his severest tone: "What reason can you assign, madam, for disobeying the summons of the court?" "I aln't got none, Jedge," answered the woman, meekly, "only we've got small-pox down to our place, an' I thought mebbe you'd be kinder prejudiced agin it."—Illustrated. High Art In Billyville.

MOON-AUSMUS MURDER CASE ALLEGED CONFESSION OF ACCES SORY TO THE MURDER OF McDOWELL. IS NOW IN MARYLAND FRED EIZENBART, WHO FORMERLY LIVED NORTH OF BRUSH. Denver.—A Republican special from Brush, Morgan county, Tuesday night says: It is reported here today that Fred Eizenbart of Hagerstown, Maryland, has confessed to being an accessory to the murder of Robert B. McDowell, a ranchman, who was killed near here some four years ago. Zara Moon and John Ausmus were convicted of this murder and were sentenced to life terms in the penitentiary, which they are now serving. They were convicted on circumstantial evidence and many in the county thought they were innocent. McDowell lived in a lonely spot on Wildcat creek, about ten miles north of here, running a bunch of cattle and horses and never mingling with people except on business. Moon and Ausmus were with him a great deal, and had worked for him at different times during the spring prior to his disappearance. In March, 1904, he disappeared and was thought to have left the country. Moon and Ausmus claimed that he had gone north. His horses and cattle were sold by Ausmus to a party at Brush, and the entire business was closed up through Ausmus, he claiming to have power of attorney to close the deal. The bill of sale of the stock was signed by McDowell with an "X," as he could not write, and the signature was witnessed by Moon and Ausmus. This and other papers which were signed at that time were proven to be forgeries and it was also proven that the money paid for the stock was divided between Moon and Ausmus. There was a portion which could not be accounted for and it now appears from the alleged confession of Eizenbart, that there was a third party implicated in the murder. Eizenbart is quoted as saving that the murder was committed by Moon and that the proceeds of the sale of the cattle and horses was divided between Ausmusm, Moon and himself. It is said he made the confession while drunk before three witnesses, two of whom have made affidavits as to the confession. Eizenbart was a well known character who drank a great deal and did odd jobs. It is thought by some that the confession being made while he was intoxicated he really did not know his own mind at the time. He had never been known to have been mixed up in any crime, and other than being addicted to drinking had no bad habits. He comes from a good family in Maryland and was at one time a Scottish Rite Mason. Sheriff Burdett wired the authorities in the East to arrest the man and hold him until he arrives. Embalmers Licensed. The result of the examination for licensed embalmers, held at the state house last week has been announced and resulted in fourteen of sixteen applicants passing. One woman and a negro were among the successful candidates. Those passing were as follows: George R. Lorton, Denver; William C. Dennis, Colorado City; Wilkie T.

Boulder, Colo. — Commencing this week an increased force of men will be put to work on the Twin Lakes reservoir of the Eastern Colorado Power Company, maps and filing for which were made a short time ago with the clerk and recorder of this county. The dam will be 6,000 feet long and about 50 feet high. It will impound about 600,000,000 cubic feet of water and the estimated cost is $200,000. This reservoir is auxiliary to the Nederland and Barker Meadow reservoirs, in the mountains, which are being constructed to hold back the flood waters of Boulder creek, in order that a uniform flow of the stream may be maintained for the power plant near Boulder. Justice Campbell Hurt in Alaska. Colorado Springs, Colo.—Attorney N. M. Campbell of this city has received a letter from his brother, Chief Justice John Campbell, of Denver, conveying news of painful injuries sustained by Judge Campbell while viewing the famous Muir glacier in Alaska two weeks ago. In order to get a better view of the great ice fields, Justice Campbell was being carried on the shoulders of sailors to the edge, when he slipped and wrenched loose several ligaments from the ribs. Judge and Mrs. Campbell are now in Tacoma, Wash. The Moffat road is now running trains regularly to Toponas. The new stations are Crater, Volcano, Egeria and Toponas. The regular mall and express train from Denver is scheduled to reach Toponas at 6:10 p. m. The train in the other direction leaves the terminal at 8:25 a. m. Work has been commenced at Woodland Park in Teller county on the construction of a tuberculosis sanitarium to cost $80,000. The Hotel Woodland was recently purchased by a southern syndicate and will be remodeled and new buildings added. EGG PLANT IN TWO WAYS. Stuffed or Escalloped, It Will Be Found Excellent. Stuffed Egg Plant.—Cut the egg plant in two, lengthwise, and scrape out the pulp with a spoon, leaving the shell nearly half an inch thick so that it holds its shape. Cover the shells with boiling water, adding salt, and place the pan, covered, on the range, keeping it at almost the boiling point while preparing the filling. Allow the shell to become tender, but not soft. Chop the pulp rather fine, add to it one level teaspoonful of salt, a dash of pepper, and simmer in a tablespoonful of butter till soft, stirring to prevent burning. Add half a teaspoonful of grated onion, a scant half teacupful of minced cooked veal or chicken, half a teacupful of bread crumbs; mix well and fill the shells. Place them in a well buttered pan, sprinkle with grated bread crumbs, add a light sprinkling of salt and pepper and bits of butter. Bake for 45 minutes, having the tops nicely browned. Escalloped Egg Plant.—Cut the egg plant lengthwise into quarter inch slices and cover with boiling salted water. When cool enough to handle, arrange half the slices on a well buttered baking dish; then add a layer of bread crumbs to which has been added a little finely minced parsley and salt and pepper to taste. Place the remaining slices upon these, sandwich fashion, pour melted butter over them, followed by a sprinkling of bread crumbs, lightly salted and peppered, and finish with a sprinkling of grated cheese. Bake in oven to a fine brown. HOW TO MAKE COLD MEAT LOAF. Far Better Than Any Warm Hash During the Summer. "Avoid warm hashes in summer, and have in their place a meat loaf that can be served cold," writes Christine Terhune Herrick in Woman's Home Companion. "Chop your remnants of steak or roast fine, mix with them one-third as much cold boiled ham or tongue, season well, and add a couple of raw eggs beaten light. If rather dry, moisten with gravy or stock, turn into a greased mold with plain sides, cover, set a napping pan with hot water about it, and bake for an hour. This loaf may also be made with raw beef, but then it must cook for two hours. Let it get very cold before turning out, and slice. Veal loaf may be prepared by this recipe, and even cold roast lamb may be treated in the same manner. The main point to be borne in mind is the seasoning. Be careful that this is well done and you will have a popular dish." Cleaning Paints. Oil-painted walls must be washed with soap and water, using a soft flannel cloth, and taking care to wring it well before using. Use cold water to finish, and dry well with linen duster. Varnished woods should be rubbed with a chamois leather wrung out of cold water, then polished with soft duster. To polish a varnished floor rub well with equal quantities of beeswax and turpentine. Another method is to take equal parts of olive oil and spirits of turnpentine, wet a soft cloth with these, rub the wood hard, then rub with a dry cloth. This is also good for black walnut furniture and sewing machines. Where paint is stained with smoke some ashes or potash lime may be used. A soft linen cloth should be used for wiping dry. On Sweeping Day. To prevent making a dust in sweeping, use moist sawdust on bare floors. If the room is carpeted, moisten a newspaper and tear it into small scraps and scatter upon the carpet before beginning to sweep. As you sweep, brush the papers along by the broom, and they will catch most of the dust and hold it fast. Be careful, however, not to have either sawdust or paper dripping wet. In dusting a room do not use a feather duster, because it does not remove the dust from the room, but only brushes it into the air, so that you breathe it in, or it settles down, and then you have to do the work over again. Use soft, dry cloths, and shake them out the window frequently, or use slightly oiled or moistened cloths and wash them out when you have finished. A Delicious Icing. Put a cup of granulated sugar with a half cup of water, let it boil without stirring until it spins a heavy thread. Beat very stiff the white of one egg and into it pour slowly the hot sugar. Let the sirup cool a little before putting it in the egg or it will cook it. Beat steadily until the icing is smooth and creamy. Just before it is too cold to stir longer, add one ounce each of candied cherries, chopped citron, candied pineapple and blanched almonds. Plain Frosting (Uncooked). Break the whites of two eggs into a broad dish, add a small handful of powdered sugar and whip with a wire egg beater. A few minutes later add more sugar and keep beating until you have an icing of the desired thickness. Flavor to taste, spread on your cake and set it in a warm place to dry. Fried Squash. Not every housekeeper knows that summer squash is delicious fried as well as bolled. The vegetable should be very tender. Cut it into slices about half an inch thick, roll the pieces in flour which has been salted and peppered and fry them in butter or bacon fat. USE FAULTLESS THE BEST STARCH FOR LAUNDRY WORK.

Congressman Longworth, at a dinner during the Republican convention in Chicago, talked about honest politics. "Honest politics alone pays in the end," said he. "Your dishonest politician comes out like Lurgan of Cincinnati. Lurgan was canvassing for votes. He dropped in at a grocer's. "Good morning," he said. "I may count on your support, I hope? "Why, no, Mr. Lurgan," said the grocer. "I've promised my support to your rival." "Lurgan laughed easily. "'Ah, but, in politics,' said he, 'promising and performing are two different matters.' "In that case,' said the grocer, heartily, 'I shall be most happy to give you my promise, Mr. Lurgan.'" NO CHANCE TO BUNKO HIM. City Youngster Too Well Aware of the Wiles of Grafters. The baseball evangelist, the eloquent Billy Sunday, said during the revival services at Sharon, Pa.: "Keep good company. Nothing does the young more harm than bad society. Only yesterday a farmer told me about a youngster of six or seven, a little country wecker, who had as suspicious and mistrustful a heart as some old miser or crook. "This boy was sent by a charity society to spend a week at the farmer's. The farmer set out to meet him, but was late. He ran into him half-way to the farm, trudging along the white road, a big burlap bag of luggage on his little bony shoulder. "The farmer held out his hands for the burlap bag. "I'll carry it, son,' he said. 'It's too heavy for you.' "Go on!" said the little boy fiercely. 'Clear out now, or I'll call a cop.'" SING, BIRDIE, DON'T! Professor—Fresh air—and plenty of it!
