DEMOCR TRAI Should the Negro Vote the Don Voter of Today is Vitally Inv Prosperity of the Country cratic Party with its curi ised Financial Legislation THE PRESENCE OF A GAUDILY PAINTED BANNER, PURPORTING TO REPRESET THE NEGRO BRYAN AND KERN CLUB, STRETCHED ACROSS ONE OF DENVER'S PRINCIPAL STREETS SERIOUSLY SUGGESTS THE VERY PERTINENT QUESTION—CAN THE NEGRO IN JUSTICE TO HIMSELF AND TO THE GREAT MASS OF HIS PEOPLE VOTE A DEMOCRATIC TICKET IN THIS CAMPAIGN? THE NEGRO DEMOCRAT HAS NEVER BEEN SERIOUSLY REGARDED. HE HAS EVER BEEN LOOKED UPON AS A SORT OF POLITICAL MONSTROSITY—A EBONIZED JOKE. HE WAS NOT KNOWN AS AN ACTIVE PARASITE UNTIL THE DAYS OF OLD ALPHABET TAYLOR IN KANSAS AND THE ELDER TROTTER OF MASSACHUSETTS, SINCE THE PASSING OF THESE TWO REAL MEN OF ABILITY THERE HAS BEEN NO NEGRO DEMOCRAT CAPABLE OF WEARING THE MANTLE OF THE DEPARTED. THE CALIBER OF THE DEWEY C. BAILEY, JR. Republican Candidate for Justice of the Peace. Dewey C. Bailey, Jr., is a Colorado boy. Born in Elbert county, twenty-six years ago, he received all his education and his inspirations from the splendid schools of our state. He is a gratudate of the East Denver High School and the State University Law Department at Boulder. He has been in the active practice of his chosen profession for four years. The Supreme Court recognizing his ability appointed him Commissioner to Revise the Session Laws of Colorado, which work he is just completing. He is a candidate for Justice of the Peace and will, if elected make a good officer. He is the son of United States Marshal Bailey, and if like father will be a hummer. PRESENT DAY LEADERS OF NEGRO DEMOCRACY IS SO VERY SMALL THAT FEW ENJOY A SPEAKING ACQUAINTANCE OUTSIDE THEIR IMMEDIATE NEIGHBORHOOD. RIGHT HERE IN THE CITY OF DENVER, WHERE IT IS PRESUMED THERE ARE A SUFFIENCY OF NEGRO DEMOCRATS TO ORGANIZE A BRYAN AND KERN CLUB, THE QUESTION IS ASKED ON ALL SIDES—WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE? NOISE ENOUGH HAS BEEN MADE BY SOME ONE TO GET BROTHER TROTTR OF THE BOSTON GUARDIAN TO SIT UP AND TAKE NOTICE. BUT THEN THE GUARDIAN, LIKE HEARST'S YELLOW JOURNALS, WILL PUBLISH ANY OLD THING. IS IT NECESSARY AT THIS TIME MORE THAN AT ANY PREVIOUS PERIOD OF THE RACE'S HISTORY THAT THE NEGRO, IN ORDER TO SECURE MORE LASTING BENEFITS OF CITIZENSHIP SHOULD VOTE A DEMOCRATIC TICKET? IN A GOVERNMENT LIKE OURS, ESPECIALLY WHERE SUCH DIVERSE CITIZENSHIP OBTAINS, A CLASS OF PEOPLE ARE MOVED TO VOTE IN THE INTEREST OF CERTAIN PRINCIPLS BECAUSE THE SUCCESS OF SAID PRINCIPLES MEANS ENLARGED OPPORTUNITIES FOR LABOR OR FOR THE PROVIDING OF COMFORTS FOR ALL. THEN THEY CANBE, AND ARE, MOVED TO VOTE FOR THE SUCCESS OF ITS PAST HISTORY. THUS WE SEE THAT OPPORTUNITIES FOR WORK AND PARTY TRADITIONS ARE THE INFLUENCING FORCES MOST POTENT AMONG A PEOPLE GUIDED BY INTELLIGENCE. OUR PEOPLE ARE NO LONGER AN IGNORANT, PURPOSELER CLASS OF VOTERS, GOING TO THE POLLS LIKE SHEEP TO THE SHAMBLES. PASSING YEARS HAS BROUGHT CHANGED CONDITIONS TO THE NEGRO AS WELL AS THE THOUSANDS OF IMIGRANTS WHO HAVE COME TO AMERICA AND BEEN LOST. THE NEGRO VOTER OF TODAY IS VITALLY INTERESTED IN THE COMMERCIAL PROSPERITY OF THE COUNTRY. HE IS A MERCHANT, A MANUFACTURER, FARMER AND AN EMPLOYER OF LABOR, AS WELL AS A LABORER. THE NATION MUST PROSPER FOR HIM TO PROSPER. IT WOULD BE FINANCIAL RUIN FOR HIM TO LEND HIS AID TO A POLITICAL ORGANIZATION WHOSE ELEVATION TO POWER MEANS AN ARRESTED PROSPERITY. THE FINANCIAL RECORD OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY DURING ITS BRIEF PERIODS OF TRIUMPH HAS NOT BEEN SUCH AS INVITES CONFIDENCE. THE CRY OF THE HUSTINGE, "TAMING" AND "CONTROLLING THE TRUSTS" IS BUT THE SPECIOUS SCHEMING FOR POLITICAL POWER MADE BY DEMOGOGUES. FROM THE DAYS [Image of a man in a suit with a bow tie, looking serious and dignified]. ALEXANDER NISBET, REPUBLICAN NOMINEE FOR SHERIFF. THE Republican candidate for sheriff, who is the present incumbant in that office, is too well known to need an introduction to the voters of Denver county. His record as sheriff is such as to recommend him to the voters of the county, without regard for parties or factions. He is a capable, efficient and fearless officer whose level-headed manner of conducting his office has made him admired and trusted by the whole people. He thoroughly believes in giving the Colored people representation in his office, and his direction of legal affairs in which Colored people, are involved is always marked with exact fairness and even leniency. Mr. Nisbet came to Denver from Maryland state in 1886, and for many years was associated with the Robertson & Doll Carriage Company. As a business man as well as an official he has an unassailable reputation. His popularity gives him a big advantage in the race for sheriff. WHEN MORRISON OF ILLINOIS DEMANDED A "HORIZONTAL REDUCTION OF THE TARIFF" TO THE BEAUTIFUL CHIMERA OF PROMISED "REDUCTION," WRITTEN IN THE LATE DENVER PLATFORM, HAVE BEEN FROSTS, WHOSE VERY PROMISED PRESENCE HAS NIPPED THE BUD OF PROSPERITY. CAN THE NEGRO VOTE FOR A PARTY WHOSE FINANCIAL HISTORY IS A RECORD OF WRECKS, IDLE WORKMEN AND CLOSED WORKSHOPS? THE COUNTRY HAS ENJOYED AN ERA OF UNPRECED DENTED PROSPERITY UNDER REPUBLICAN RULE. GREATER OPORTUNITIES FOR MAKING AND ACCUMULATING WEALTH HAS BEEN GIVEN ALL THE PEOPLE THAN IN ANY PREVIOUS PERIOD OF THE COUNTRY'S HISTORY OR TO THE PEOPLE OF ANY OTHER CUNTRY. SUCCESS OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY WITH ITS CURIOUS PATCH-WORK OF PROMISED FINANCIAL LEGISLATION WILL NOT IMPROVE CONDITIONS. RATHER, UNTIL THE PEOPLE OF THE COUNTRY THOROUGHLY UNDER STAND THE PROPOSED CHANGES, MUCH THAT GOES TO MAKE FOR PROSPEROUS TIMES FOR THE LA- BORERS WILL BE AT A STA- STILL, HENCE THERE IS NO REASON FOR ANY LABORING MAN VOTING A DEMOCRATIC TICKET AT THIS TIME, HOPING THEREBY TO BE RELIEVED OF ANY BUR- DENS. IF ANY RACIAL ELEMENT IS MOVED TO VOTE WITH A PARTICULAR POLITICAL PARTY BECAUSE OF THE TRADICTIONS AND HISTORY OF THE PARTY, THERE IS NO REASON UNDER THE SUN FOR THE NEGRO VOTER TO ALIGN HIMSELF WITH THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY, AS SAID BY THE COLORADO STATESMAN SOMETIME AGO THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY HAS EVEN BEEN A LIVING PROTEST AGAINST THE NEGRO. THIS PARTY FATHERED EVERY ACT OF THE GENERAL GOVERNMENT AGAINST THE NEGRO FROM THE DAYS OF JEFFERSON TO TILLMAN. IT MADE THE KANSAS-NEBRASKA BILL, THE MISSOURI COMPROMISE, THAT ABOMINATION OF ALL AMERICAN LEGAL ENACTMENTS, THE FUGITIVE SLAVE LAWS WHICH MADE EVERY CITIZEN A HUMAN HUNTER AND SENT THE BLOOD- HOUNDS OF THE SOUTH TRAILING THROUGH THE BYPATHS TO PREEDOM IN THE NORTH. THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY REJOICED IN JUDGE TANEY'S NOTORIOUS DRED SCOTT DECISION, AND THEN SOUGHT TO DESTROY THIS GOV- ERNMENT IN 1861, FOR THE PRES- ERVATION OF WHICH TWO HUNDRED AND EIGHTY-EIGHT THOUS- SAND NEGROES BARED THEIR BREASTS. THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY IS THE PARTY OF THE KLU-KLUX AND RED SHIRT AND THE HARBORER OF THE NIGHT RIDERS, LYNCHERS AND MUR- DERERS, WHOSE DESPICABLE DEEPS HAVE CAST AN ODION ON THE NAME OF THE SOUTH THAT YEARS OF PATIENT EFFORT WILL NOT RELIEVE. THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY IS THE ABIDING PLACE OF TILLMAN, VARDEMAN, DIXON AND HASKELL. LORD HAVE MERCY ON SUCH AN AGGREGATION OF POLITICAL MEN. NO.4 HON. CLARENCE J. MORLEY. Republican Candidate for Legislature. Hon. Clarence J. Morley was born in Iowa in 1869. He removed to Cedar Falls, in 1884, where he completed his education, in the Cedar Falls High School and in the State Normal School. In 1888 he was appointed District Court Reporter. He remained in this position for a time and then came to M. B. Trinidad, Colo., where he filled a similar position. In 1895 he removed to Denver and entered the Denver University Law School. He was admitted to the bar 1897. He graduated from his law school with honors, receiving the degree of L.L. B. He became associated with the firm of Teller and Orahood and with Teller and Dorsey until 1905 when he formed his present law partnership with Frank McDonough, Sr. Mr. Morley was appointed Public Administrator eight years ago, to which position he was re-appointed in 1907. Mr. Morley was married to Miss Maud Thompson of Cedar Falls, Ia., in 1893. He has a delightful family of three children. As a candidate for Representative, Mr. Morley will no doubt add strength to the ticket. He is well qualified and possesses the confidence of all classes. --- Candidate for judge of the juvenile court, is equipped by long practice and large experience for those peculiar and exacting duties attending this office. Judge Howze is possessed of that kindly, patient temperament which characterizes the most successful of the modern, practical students of juvenile problems. A fatherly counsellor rather than a namateur theorist, he will bring to this court the assurance of a wise and efficient administration.

Baltimore American, in Reviewing the Political Situation, Explains Why Republican Candidate May Look for Support There. President McKinley sowed the seed of nationalism in the south, President Roosevelt cultivated the growth and Mr. Taft will endeavor to reap the harvest. Though coming from a mid. die west state, Judge Taft is, in fact, one of the most southern statesmen in the range of his sympathies and the extent of his knowledge, to be found in the country, Mr. Taft stands for the nationalizing of the south. Many have belabored the south for its po- litical soliditary, but Taft has labored with it to convince it that its true in- terests lie in the line of the nation’s development, and that it cannot afford to have the stream of national life grow stronger and stronger without a responsive beat. Mr. Taft can count a great deal upon the popularity of Roosevelt wih many southerners. He can count upon the effect of the policies of Roosevelt that have touched the southern spirit. But he can count much more upon his own identification with the interests of the south, He stands for the car- rying of the impulse of southern in- dustry to the farthest bounds of South America. ‘The south sees in him the wizard of Panama. This undertaking it regards as peculiarly its own pro- ject. It sees in him the magician who has made it impossible for the open door in the east to be shut by any power. Southerners view him as the vigorous promoter of the military en- ergies of the nation. They are full of patriotic sentiment and ardently de- yoted to the projects for the building ‘up of a great navy, capable of defend- ing the entire coasts of the country and its dependencies. They have true American shrewdness in forecasting coming events, and see that the one field of international complications is that of the Pacific. To them Taft is the voyager to the east who has im- pressed the American name and char- acter upon the people of that section, Taft represents almost everything to which the south is devoted. The personal convictions and the public. record of Mr. Taft will be given added influence by the favorable turn of politics in that section, ‘There are many southerners who are declaring that the Democratic party is no longer a southern party. It is a western party. It has its affiliation there, It finds its strongest indorsers there. It goes there for its policies, and it picks its leaders from that section. It is the party of the plains, of the alkali region, of the sand hills and of the bad lands, It is the party of the men of wide vision and narrow range of perception in relation to national af- fairs—Baltimore American. Mr. Bryan's pet phrase about the “twilight zone” suggests that it is in this shadowy region that he invents his dim and foggy ideas of regulat- ing trusts by the ratio system, Mr. Bryan Insists that the next president ought to be chosen by “the Democratic plan of popular selection.” We hadn't heard that any Republicans were opposed to it. They tried ft in 1898, 1900 and 1904, and were quite satisfied with it, Mr, Bryan said recently that “this 1s a Democratic year in Minnesota.” ‘This is our first intimation that the crops up there have failed.—Chicago ‘Post. We are not to have a settled tariff for any length of ‘time under Bryan. Merchants and manufacturers never would know just what to expect, there- fore business would never have an op: portunity to settle down upon any basis whatever.

New Bryan Compares Unfavorabl) with the Bryan of 1896. The Bryan of 1908 is not the Bryan of 1896 and of 1900. Then he was young, impetuous, intrepid, daring, Now he is cautious, conservative, mys- terious, politic. Then he rushed forth to battle in the glamour and gle«y of a moral hero. Now he is inclined to “look before he leaps,” to weigh the chances of his action, to trim his sails to every passing breeze. And we are gravely assured that the new Bryan is safer and saner than the old. We do not see how this can possibly be. The Bryan of a dozen years ago was un earnest reformer. To-day he is a political trimmer. Then he was po- litically honest, now he is almost un- der suspicion, He has made his peace with every political trickster and gangster in the Democratic party. He has not repudiated a single one of his political vagaries, but, for the exig- encies of the campaign, he has grace- fully sidestepped on all the issues he has found are obnoxious to “the peo- ple." He has thrown principle to the winds, and is “playing politics.” He is no longer the moral hero of a ‘new reformation, but the political lead- er of a spoils party. The old chieftain, honest though wrong, was far more to be trusted and desired than the new standard bearer who {s politically both dishonest and wrong. “Indiana is now removed from the doubtful column by eyen the Taft prognosticators,” vaguely remarks the esteemed Pittsburg Post.” It has been generaily understood that they had re- moved it from the doubtful column into the sure-enough Taft column. | Mr, Taft is one of the most con- vineing campaigners this country has ever had. He is not a “spellbinder,” he ts not expert in amusing the crowd; he is not an adept in ridicule; but he is a great orator in the sense that he fully comprehends his subject and drives his arguments home with clear logic and the force of irresistible sin- cerity. Mr. Taft is not a plausible juggler of half truths. He is not skilled in evasion. He confines himself to the truth, and you feel that what he says must be believed. His record is ab- solutely correct. He has nothing to regret, nothing that he would do dif- ferently if he were called upon to do it again, A man of his achievements, who can go before the country with such candor, who can stand by every- thing he has ever said or done, is a rian to be trusted. And Mr. Taft is trusted. Even those who shall for any reason whatsoever yote against him believe that he is ab- solutely sincere; that he {s doing nothing merely to be elected to the presidency and that he is incapable of making compromises for the sake of political advancement. So Bryan is going to take Taft's trail during the campaign. He will still be trailing when the votes are | counted.—Detroit Free Press. Whenever Mr. Bryan lights upon anything tangible he becomes inaccu- rate or positively dangerous, He denied the other day that he ever had favored government ownership of rail- roads. What, I, Bryan, the conserva- tive and new Bryan, favor government ownership and bureaucracy and social: istic devices? Why, I'm a Democrat and successor to Jefferson. But his speech and his written article are pro- duced and the subject is changed. “Oh, wel, he hadn't thought much about the subject, anyhow. He ought to be excused. He touches on so many important subjects that he cannot be expected to know much of any one subject, and he broaches so many im. portant things that they all sink into relative insignificance in comparison with the one important thing—his election. Mr. Taft should hold to his original resolution not to answer every state- ment made by Bryan. Give Mr. Bry. an time enough and he will deny them all himself, Mr. Taft's Sincerity. Shifty Mr. Bryan. | AT ATLANTIC CITY, ; i ie Qs e- \Poy | ff \Gacilllte = SDS rl Vs ae: iy lbp Koy mw ¢ Mead 4 so 1 R 7 nO / | Silas—I jes’. tell yer, Mandy, this ride makes me feel 50 years younger.

Riding across the country one day, Dr. Blank noticed an old negro who had been for quite a while perched motionless upon a little bridge, fish- ing silently from the stream beneath. For some time he watched him from a distance, but finally, overcome by the old fellow’s unmoved patience, he rode up and accosted him. “Hello, Wash! What are you doing up there?” “Fishin”, sah,” came the reply. “Not getting many, are you?” “No, sah.” “Well, it seems to me you'd get tired fishing so long without a site.” “I doesn't want no be, cap'n.” “Well, that’s funny. GVhy don't you want a bite, Wash?” “Hit's this-a-way, cap'n: when I gits a lots o' bites, hit takes all meh time to git the fish off’n meh line, an’ 1 doesn’t have no time foh fishin’."— Success Magazine, A Marvelous Eye Remedy. ‘Those who know what intense pains come with some diseases of the eye can hardly believe Mitchell's Hye Salve is able to do all that is claimed for it, but a trial soon convinces one of the extraordinary curative powers of this little remedy.

Perhaps most of the scolding done in the world is between husbands and wives or between parents and children. Parents must instruct their children; they must sometimes reprove them. They must often counsel them. But they are in great danger of "provoking them to wrath"—in the wise Biblical phrase. Children have the keenest possible sense of justice; they are also very easily hurt; and when their minds are bruised the result is estrangement, and that is as sad a thing as can ever be. An imperious, scolding father or mother frightens the children away, drives them into all manner of evasions and subtertures, and brands their minds forever with the memory of cruel and blistering words." Claudius Clear. To Win Success. Entertain no thought of defeat, marshal your forces, put them in charge of those three invincible officers, "I will," "I can," and "I must," and you need not fear but you will win a glorious victory and plant your standard on the sun-kissed heights of success. Loyalty to a Friend. Never permit yourself to comment unfavorably upon a friend. If you have a complaint, carry it in person to the individual concerned. Loyalty is the life breath of real friendship; and if there was more loyalty there would be fewer broken friendships. Career of Felix Adler. Felix Adler, the well-known instructor and lecturer, was born in Alzey, Germany, August 13, 1851, the son of a Jewish rabbi. He came to America in early life and was graduate from Columbia college in 1870 and subsequently studied at Berlin and Heidelberg, obtaining the degree of Ph. D. After his return to the United States he was professor of Hebrew and oriental literature at Cornell university from 1874 to May, 1876 when he established a new religious society in New York called the Society of Ethical Culture, to which he invariably speaks every Sunday.

TWO weeks from next Tuesday election day will be here. It is to be a straight laying down of ballots, without fraud or corruption, and every citizen is expected to make deliberate choice and selection of the candidates and policies he believes in. The Republican party is in its greatest days. Important as the past has been greater works are before the country and the party now. National and state progress, individual prosperity and the welfare and security of those who are struggling for greater liberties, depend upon the success of the Republican ticket in state and nation. SHAFROTH THERE are some men in public life whose perpetual candidacy for office arouses not only the opposition, but the enmity of Colored voters, because of their well known and insolent indifference to the vital claims by which those voters exercise the rights of citizenship. John F. Shafroth, Demoeratic candidate for Governor of Colorado, is one of those men. He has played a part in the political affairs of Colorado for the past twenty years, and that part has always been one in which he has endeavored to impress the people with the idea of his importance. Although he hailed from Missouri and displayed a character in peculiar harmony with bourbon principles, he entered public life here in Denver as a Republican and in that guise imposed upon the people through succeeding campaigns, and was elevated by the Republican party to the office of congressman. It was always with distaste that we supported John F. Shafroth for less important prior offices and with actual unwillingness and distrust that we endured the party's yielding to the persistency of this man's clamor for continually increasing honors. He has always been cold, sneering, unsympathetic and disdainful in his attitude toward Colored people, and in all his public career he has never performed one act or spoken one sincere word calculated to win the confidence or weld the fealty of his Colored constituents. Never has actual popularity followed him, but his professional or political identification with real Republicians of influence and worth, like Routt, Wolecott and their successors, swung him into office. At heart he was always a Demoerat, and a mean, cold-blooded one at that, and his professed Republicanism was hypocrisy, pure and simple, thinly veneered for the sake of office. The advent of the Silver Republicans in 1896, was to him a pleasing and acceptable development, and the subsequent supremacy of Demoeracy in this state afforded him a natural, easy and long-wished-for opportunity to slip into his rightful place in politics. It needs no keen imagination to conceive his absolute sympathy with Tillman, Vardeman and Hoke smith. His pretense of Republicanism was a long-lived lie, and if there is a Negro in Colorado who can vote for him and against a real Republican like Jesse F. McDonald, we would like to measure that Negro's sense of honor. Every Negro who is loyal and who knows the political history of Colorado, will train his guns with glee on John F. Shafroth and his ticket on election day. TO MAKE THE NEGRO WORK AMERICAN sociallogists have an extraordinarily fruitful theme in the Negro question and the number of solutions put forward for this vexing race problem is limited only by the number of sociologists of commanding rank. Mrs. Charlotte Perkins Gilman, in The American Journal of Sociology, published at Chicago, has brought out the latest plan big enough to be talked about, and though it is no more liable of adoption than anything else that has been suggested in the way of remedies for racial ills, it is a comprehensive addition to the discussion of the restless subject. Mrs. Gilman says that the problem is one of status rather than of race, and that "the decent, self-supporting, progressive Negroes form no problem and call for nothing but congratulation." Then she declares that "the whole body of Negroes who do not progress, who are not self-supporting, who are degenerating into an increasing percentage of social burdens or actual criminals, should be taken hold of by the state." She would enlist this dependent mass into an organized army, under the authority of the state, with its uniforms, its officers, it titles, its decorations, its careful system of grading, its music and banners and impressive ceremonies. This state army should have its schools of all grades, its farms, its mills and shops and its churches, but the greater body of able men should be employed at road building, the improvement of harbors an driver banks and the general development of the state's avenues of commence. One branch of this army should provide necessities for another, and the whole should be not only self-supporting but profitable to the state. Individual efficiency should be rewarded with monetary compensation accumulating into a wage fund, and a certain state of efficiency and independence should graduate the individual from the army. This army should have "proper food, suitable hours of work, rest and amusement, without the strain of personal initiative and responsibility," and all the best conditions of home should be fostered. "This institution should be compulsory at the bottom, perfectly free at the top," says Mrs. Gilman, and she thinks that by the time the army has performed all the services it can for the state and the state has done all that it can do for the army, there will be no Negro problem. Although she contemplates keeping the workings of this system entirely out of politics, we fear that she presumes too much upon the purity of American statesmanship and overlooks the blood relationship between this scheme and the less fanciful form of slavery which existed prior to 1860. Meanwhile all but sociologists will expect the Negro to keep plugging away along the old lines. ROLAND G. PARVIN. THE nominee for county treasurer is a business man of large experience in financial affairs. He is connected with the Union Deposit & Trust Company of Denver, being the secretary and treasurer of that important institution. Mr. Parvin came to Denver from Indiana in 1880. He is well known in club circles as well as in Denver's business and social life, and possesses a genial personality which has made him popular as a man. The character of his business having made him familiar with the safety deposit business and financial affairs, the conduct of the tax office should come ready to his hand. Because he has not sought office, but has been a thorough-going business man, the conviction is general among Republicans and independent voters that he is an ideal candidate. THE MAYOR OF NEW YORK Willis V. Elliott, Republican candidate for district attorney, is one of those well prepared, keen-minded, highly efficient men whose whole life has been in touch with the development of the West. He is a brilliant lawyer and has had large experience as a prosecuting officer, having filled the position of assistant district attorney for several years. His ability is generally recognized, his honesty is unquestioned, and his earnestness in all matters concerning the public welfare will insure just such vigorous conduct of the office of district attorney as every large municipality needs. Mr. Elliot was born in Pennsylvania, but has lived in Denver since he was two years old. He is now thirty-eight. He is well known politically, but rather as an interested Republican worker than as an office holder, and his popularity is based upon the confidence Republicans and all business men feel in his integrity and worth as a man. Modern Helplessness Is This True? The best inheritance that either boy or girl may have is that of resourcefulness and self-reliance. It is a common experience of those who employ the best brought up children of the present day, the young men who go to the best schools and acquit themselves well at the universities, that they are afflicted with a kind of helplessness. This is a matter, adds Country Life, to which the attention of education leaders should be directed. A large proportion of the stories in demand at "select" libraries are the reverse of creditable to our views on women. But it is only fair to add that many of the most pronounced of these are written by women. Men seldom write this unwholesome fiction, nor do they read it with avidity. The study of illicit passion appeals most to certain feminine temperaments. I am afraid that cannot be denied."Arthur Wallace, in "The Crown." 776 where he has been successful as a public spirited citizen. He has always been a loyal and consistent Republican. His many friends knowing his worth and ability induced him to become a candidate for Representative of the Republican ticket. Mr. Correa is an able speaker and a man of culture and ability. In presenting his name THE COLORADO STAESMAN, takes pride in urging the Republican voters to support him. He has always been a friend of the Colored people and many can testify to his quiet generosity. He should have the full support of the party. Very few Negro voters in Denver county do not now John S. Correa, whose cut appears above. Mr. Correa was born July 4th, 1857, in Jacksonville, Ill. His parents were poor and in order for young Correa to obtain the needed rudiments of an education he was compelled to go to work. In this way he secured a good common school education. For ten years he was employed in a grocery store, where he learned every detail of the business and laid the foundation of later business success.' In 1887 he came West and located in Denver, where he has been successful as a public spirited citizen. He has always been a loyal and consistent Republican. His many friends knowing his worth and ability induced him to become a candidate for Representative of the Republican ticket. Mr. Correa is an able speaker and a man of culture and ability. In presenting his name THE COLORADO STAESMAN takes pride in urging the Republican voters to support him. He has always been a friend of the Colored people and many can testify to his quiet generosity. He should have the full support of the party. When it is announced that Senator W. W. Booth is a candidate for re-election, there is a feeling of great pleasure among all lovers of progressive legislation. Senator Booth is a native of Michigan and comes from the fine old stock which has made the English speaking people the most remarkable of modern times. Prior to coming to Colorado, he lost all in a big strike on the Burlington road. He came to Colorado and took hold of anything his hands could find to do. His M. B. tireless energy and marked success as an insurance solicitor soon attracted the attention of several companies. He became state agent for Provident Savings and Assurance Company of New York and later became the representative of the Equitable Life Insurance Company, which position he now holds. He has been active in politics as a Republican. He was twice Mayor of Highland before its consolidation with Denver. Both he and his parents are strong friends of the race. His home at one time being a place on the underground railroad. During his terms in the legislature, he has been active in support of all measures calculated to protect the rights of the people. He promoted the Registration Act which has been of so much service to the people in eliminating registration frauds. If re-elected he will support a Direct Primary Bill which will afford further relief to the people. Nominee for County Clerk. Joseph J. Vick Roy, nominee for county clerk and recorder, is another candidate of long residence and admirable record. His friends are like those of Scottish clans which swear by their leaders. He is not a boss, but just an old-time level-headed, bighearted Republican, such as colored voters have always found fully worthy of their most loyal confidence and support. Probably he has been instrumental in getting more employment for colored men than any other private individual in Denver outside of the contractor class. He is a railroad man by profession, but he has filled various political offices, ranging from deputy county clerk to city clerk, assist- ant postmaster and deputy city auditor. No Republican voter will fall to record his vote for Joseph J. Vick Roy. a eee eee ae g CITY NEWS } g g Z ooo Z SNNNNNNNNAY, Oh! Sweetie, Don't!—with the Show Girls.

VERNON SPEAKS. Colorado has had two rare treats. Hon, W. H. Taft and Hon. W. T. Ver- non haye made great speeches to immense crowds in Denver. Hon. W. T, Vernon is no doubt the greatest po- litical orator in the employ of the Re- publican national committee. He is not only eloquent but he is profound. Last Saturday night he spoke at the ‘Tabernacle. Long before the hour of meeting great crowds began gathering to hear the most eloquent Negro of the hour, The monster political meet- ing was held under the auspices of the Negro Taft-‘Sherman Republican club, Its great success marks the care- ful organization of the club. Mr. Ver- non wasted no time in useless prelim- inary, he plunged at once into his sub- Ject and for more than an hour held the vast audience spell-bound. His knowledge of the situation and grasp of public affairs seemed to astonish his hearers as much as his marvelous eloquence. While in the city he was the guest of Captain Campbell, our nominee for Representative. Speeches were made by Captain Campbell and Hon. George W. Gross of Rocky Ford. It was a great meeting and will do great good for the party. ROSS IS NOT A DEMOCRAT.

He treated her, but the disease spread to her back, and then the whole of her head was affected, and all her hair had to be cut oft. The pain she suffered was excru- ciating, and with that and the heat and tingling her life was almost un- bearable. Occasionally she was deliri- ous and she did not have a proper hour's sleep for many. nights. The second doctor we tried afforded her just as little relief as the first.

Berlin—Only one of the twenty- three balloons which started in the race for the international trophy Sun- day from Schmargendort is unac: counted for, This is the Germaa bal- loon Busley, under the command of Doctor Niemeyer, with Hans Hiede- mann as assistant, Dispatches received here Wednes- day from Cuxhaven announced that the Spanish contestant, the Castella, dropped into the ocean six miles north of Heligoland, and that the navigators, Montojo and Robero, were rescued by fishermen. Montojo said: “The balloon for more than an hour was sometimes in and sometimes out of the water near Heligoland, Finally we saw a fishing boat and we sprang into the water, where we remained for some twenty minutes before being rescued. Two other balloons passed over Hamburg in our company.” Wednesday evening a dispatch was received from Molde, Norway, telling of the descent of the Swiss balloon Helvetia to the ocean and the rescue of Colonel Schaeck and E. Messner. The dispatch says: “Fishing boat this afternoon rescued occupants balloon Helvetia at the last moment as they were sinking, the gas being totally exhausted. The balloon was saved. Schaeck and Messner will remain here oyer night and go to Christiansands tomorrow.” Molde is only thirty-two miles south: west of Christiansands, and to reach this point the Helvetia must have trav eled about 1,250 kilometers or 775 miles in a direct line, and must have traveled over the Skager Rack, or the still greater body of the North Sea. ‘This is by far the greatest distance re: ported to the credit of any of the con- testants, the majority of whom either took a Somewhat circular course or were compelled to descend on account of their proximity to water. ‘The Helvetia is the fifth™ Datlcon among the international contestants to come to grief; the Conqueror and ‘the Montanes burst at a high altitude, and the St. Louis and Castella were wrecked in the North Sea.

A second report eame from Molde ‘late Wednesday night, stating that an- other balloon was reported to have Tanded in Norway, about the same place as the Helvetia, The Aero club ‘officials here are doubtful of this and believe the report is simply another ‘version of the Helvetia’s landing. A report received here from Wan- gerloog island, in the North Sea, says a balloon passed over there Tuesday. Fourteen German torpedo boats are searching the North Sea for the miss- ing balloon, N. H. Arnold and Harry J. Hewitt, the two American aeronauts of North Adams, Massachusetts, who were res- cued from their balloon, the St. Louis, in the North Sea Tuesday, arrived in Berlin today.

And correct knowledge is most likely to come from personal experience. “About a year ago,” writes a N. Y. man, “I was bothered by indigestion, especially during the forenoon. I tried several remedies without any perman- ent improvement. “My breakfast usually consisted of oatmeal, steak or chops, bread, coffee and some fruit. “Hearing so much about Grape-Nuts, I concluded to give it a trial and find out if all I had heard of it was true. “So I began with Grape-Nuts and cream, 2 soft boiled eggs, toast, a cup of Postum and some fruit. Before tne end of the first week I was rid of the acidity of the stomach and felt much relieved. “By the end of the second week all traces of indigestion had disappeared and I was in first rate health once more, Before beginning this course of diet, I never had any appetite for lunch, but now I can enjoy a hearty meal at noon time.” “There's a Rea- son.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich, Read “The Road to Well- ville,” in pkgs.

FOR CLEAR, VELVETY SKIN: | Much Care Necessary to Prevent| Plenty of Fresh Air and a Good Mas-| Spoiling Its Tone. sage Cream Are Essential. Ivory toilet articles are quite as fashionable as silver ones now, and the fact that they are more difficult to clean in no way detracts from their popularity. It is not easy to remove stains from the mellow, creamy ma- tertal without spoiling its tone. Seme useful hints on cleaning ivory are given herewith: When the stains are very slight and do not seem to be permanent, though they cannot be ruPbed off with a dry cloth, wash the ivery thoroughly in warm water and seap suds and then, without drying it on a cloth, place it in the bright sumlight for a few minutes. This ex- posure will usually remove the stains. After they have disappeared wash the ivory again in soap and water, rinse it thoroughly and dry carefully with a soft cloth. Where the stains do not disappear entirely after contact with the sun's reys the ivory should be washed again ir soap and water, then rinsed in clear water to which a little lemon juice hés been added. Care must be taken te have the temperature of the water right, as too great heat will injure the ivory. Very dark discolorations require the services of an expert to remove, though one may be fairly successful by rubbing oxalic acid solution, not te> strong, and applying this to the derk spots or streaks with a brush. Afterward wash the ivory well in cleat warm water and dry with absorbent cotton or a soft cloth and then leave in the sunshine or in a warm place to bleach. ‘The acid of a lemon is not harmful to the most delicate piece of ivory; in fact the juice of a lemon can be ap plied with a mixture of cleansing pow der or whiting directly to the ivory without running any risk of spoiling its tone or texture. It should, how. eyer, be removed quickly and the ivory thoroughly cleansed afterward with plenty of warm water. Cabinet pteces that become discolored can be cleaned in this way and will be great ly improved in color and appearance. When Collar Has Made a Line. When the line of the collar is seen ‘ox the neck and will not come off, it is lime to do something definite to re- move the discoloration of the skin It is often effective to apply perox- id> of hydrogen with a bit of absorb- ent cotton.

When made full the bloomers will furnish enough body So that petticoats will not have to be worn, This in itself is an economy, as it will save the laundry and will save the wear and tear on the underclothes. The bloomers also provide a great deal of warmth and allow more free- dom of movement than do petticoats. A ai RR ROR KA RAG Remember the truth of the old say- ing, “A stitch in time saves nine,” and mend any worn places or torn parts in all garments before sending them to the laundry; and the ‘ime added to the life of the garments; will more ‘(mn repay you. What is only a small hole in a garment before it is sent to the laundry oftentimes will be a fair-sized rent when it returns. FOR CLEAR, VELVETY SKIN. Plenty of Fresh Air and a Good Mas. sage Cream Are Essential. Good teeth, sparkling eyes and beau- tiful hair are all essential to persona. attractiveness, but probably the great- est charm of woman 1s a clear, fresh, velvety skin.

Mso assist nature by external treat- ment of the face, Nearly every mod- ern woman uses some face or cleans- ing cream. This is more true in the cities than the country, but women in smaller communities are beginning to realize the necessity of face cream.

You will sce thousands of small dust particles floating in the adr. These get into the pores and work havoc unless one’s eliminating system is unusual. A cleansing or massage cream works down into the pores and brings out these dust particles which soap and water cannot reach.

PROPER METHODS OF LAUNDER. ING DELICATE FABRICS. Silk and Lace Centerpieces Easily tn: Injured—Linen Should Be Shrunk- en Before It Is Stamped or Embroidered. | The table center of to-day is very different from that of a few years ago. There are many more varieties than the allembroidered or all-lace center pieces of the past. Nowadays, different kinds of nets and laces are inserted in the linen, | and combined, with solid embroidery or fancy stitches and also with braids, which are coming into fashion again. These make centerpieces and em- broidery in general much simpler, yet, at the same time, more effective. ‘They can also be made with less ex- pense if the proper combinations are used. Solid embroidery done with silks, either in colors or white, is handsomer than any other kind. For table centers for everyday use, which must be laundered constantly, the all-white linen center, worked in mercerized or plain cotton, with fancy stitches and simple braids, makes an effective and inexpensive article, It is easy for anyone knowing little or even nothing about embroidery in general to make, ‘The linen should be shrunken be- “fore it is stamped or embroidered, es- “pecially any piece that is made to a “Special size or a particular shape. A circular center will not remain round unless it has been shrunken before it ‘has been marked, for linen shrinks “more one way than another. When a center or any embroidered piece of linen is laundered, it should be pressed while damp on the wrong side until thoroughly dry. If the froning board or table is cov- ered with several thicknesses of blanket the embroidery will then stand out and look very handsome after the piece has been pressed. It is best to use a piece of flannel when dampening the linen, as it is softer than linen or cotton and fresh- ens up the linen wonderfully. Unless a piece of work has become very much soiled while being worked, ft is much betier not to wash it before it is pressed. When finished, the center should be dampened and pressed before the scal lop is cut out, thus enabling the linen to be cut closer to the scallop without danger of cutting the stitches or leav ing a ragged edge beyond the scallop This usually happens if it is cut ont before it is pressed. Fruit Pudding. Moisten half a loaf of staie graham bread, finely grated, with a cupfu) pt hot molasses, adding half a cupralgee melted butter, a teaspoonful of pow- dered cinnamon, half a teaspoonful each of powdered allspice and grated nutmeg, half a cupful of brown sugar, and a saltspoonful of ground cloves. Mix thoroughly and then stir in a tea- spoonful of baking soda dissolved in a seant teacupful of sour eream, with sufficient flour to form a stiff batter, adding by degrees half a cupful of seeded raisins, two tablespoonfuls of currants, a quarter of a pound of shredded citron, and two ounces of chopped candied orange peel, Pour into a large round pan and bake for 45 minutes in a moderate oven; serve with a hard sauce flavored as de- sired, Dic A Ria ailibeee: Soak three cupfuls of dried apples over night in cold water, enough to swell them. Chop them in the morn- ing quite fine and put them on the fire with three cupfuls of New Orleans molasses. Stew until nearly soft, add one cupful seedless raieine and stew a few minutes. When cold «dd one cup- ful of butter, three eggs, three tea- spoonfuls of allspice, one grated nut- Meg, one teaspoonful of baking soda and three cupfuls of flour. Bake one hour and a half in a moderate oven. ‘This makes a rich cake and will keep for months. Cook Beet Tops. Take young beets, cut the leaves off and clean them well. Boil till soft with a litle salt, strain and chop fine. Chop a small onion and brown with a nice piece of butter, add a tablespoon- ful of flour, a dash of pepper and nut- meg. Pour enough boiling ‘water on this to make a gravy. Mix beet leaves with gravy and let simmer together for a few minutes, then serve. Make a salad of the beets by boiling till soft, skin, cut in slices, add vinegar and water to cover, a bay leaf, and a few peppers. Alnalnnnit Baek cen, One egg, teaspoon of salt, butter, sugar, 1 pint of flour, 2 heaping tea spoons baking powder or soda and sour milk when very light.

Hat with butter and sugar sirup. Fine. Globes on Gaslights, The globes on gas fixtures and lamps should not be screwed too tight, as the heat when the light is burning will expand the glass. Sufficient room should be left for this expansion. When screwed too tight the globe will crack or break. Watermelon Vinegar.
