As has been announced from every pulpit and through the press Dr. Booker T. Washington will speak to the people of Denver on Monday, November 1st at the People's Tabernacle. This simple announcement is of itself sufficient to rouse every good citizen to a proper sense of his duty, and Mr. Washington will speak to a crowded house. This great character needs no words of praise. To a certain extent his coming up has been the same as that of many thousands of our men and women whose name remains unknown to fame. Born of enslaved parents and emancipated with others he

soon became fired with the ambition to educate himself. To prepare himself for a place in the affairs of the world. With becoming self denial and resistless energy he toiled and labored and studied. He went to Hampton Institute. Here he came in touch with that prince among men General S. C. Armstrong. Here was developed the insatiable desire to live for and help others. In this school his soul was filled with a holy, patrotic ambition to bring his
people to a higher plane. In the year that he toiled, studied and taught at Hampton the dream of a mighty redemption to form and its realization was the humble beginning at Tuskegee. Tuskegee has grown with the man. In character and aspirations, Mr. Washington has not grown from youth to manhood and developed away from his race. As his mind grew broader and his grasp of those things that went for the betterment of the race became firmer his love for and faith in the ultimate triumph of the Negro has grown stronger. This element in the character of Mr. Washington is the secret of his continued success and the mas-

terly hold he has upon the confi- dence and affections of his people. Many times when the clouds of oppression have lowered and the feel- ing between the races has been at a fever heat the quick tones of the wizard of Tuskegee has brought order out of chaos. He has views of his own as to correct methods of solving the race problem. These views have not at all times been in harmony with those held by the leaders of the race. They have often hampered and delayed his

work, but never prevented the results. He is a doer and asks the race to follow him. The Colorado Statesman as the organ of the industrious and energetic Negroes of the West, cordially extends a hearty welcome to the city and to our homes. The editor as a pupil and personal benefactor of Mr. Washington cannot but supplement the welcome of the thousands of people of Denver.
THE CAUSE.
"The one test should be the service which the men and women whom we are educating are rendering to the wrold." This is the opening line in the annual (1909) report of the Principal of Tuskegee Institute. With such a purpose uppermost in his mind, it very naturally would require something very meritorious in itself to bring him west. With the central idea of the Washington propaganda predominating throughout the country, it is not surprising then that localities are changing its viewpoint and trying to save the race by teaching the individual to save himself. Its the reclamation of the man, the boy, the woman and the girl that is now claiming
I.
public attention. The most potent and perhaps most congenial is through the Young Men's Christian Association. Such organizations among colored men are doing great and effective work in Eastern and Southern cities. For more than a year a body of young men in Denver have been laboring hard to open such an institution in this city. Here is the place such work is needed. Here is the city where more homeless men and boys find refuge in the saloon and
resort than any other city of its size in America. This is for the reason that more come here. To aid in raising money for the establishment of a Young Men's Christian Association in Denver for the use of our people is the purpose of Mr. Washington's coming. The good we do towards upbuilding the town or city is a "test" of the effectiveness of our education. Denver has splendid school and church advantages. The ten thousand Negroes living here cannot plead lack of opportunity to lift up. It is theirs to do, and this splendid moment should pass. Denver needs a Young Men's Christian Association and every one should push.
ANNUAL REPORTS.
We quoted above from the 1909 report of Tuskegee Institute. We cannot close these notes without calling attention to the work being done down there. During the year $201,483.11 was received for current expenses. The water service at a final cash of $40,000.00 is being improved under the direction of Mr. William Barclay Parsons of New York. The school will have 400,000 gallons of artesian water daily. A fine new Dining Hall is being completed and will be open to the public this fall. More money has been set aside for Farmer's Institute and extension work. There is every reason to have faith in this great school—the wonderful dream of a Negro boy. HEAR HIM MONDAY AT THE PEOPLES TABERNACLE.
NEGRO BANKS
Negro bankers have made a great record in this country. They have gone through some of the severest money panics the States have ever known and still the failures is less than ninety per cent of the whole. Of the fifty odd banks that have been established in this country by Negroes only one has been a complete failure. There are two banks conducted by Negroes in this city and both of them are having great success. They are two banks conducted by Negroes in this city; and what is true of the two here is also true of the banks conducted by Negroes throughout the country.—Nashville Globe.
George W. Walker, of the team of Williams and Walker, who is laying off this season for his health left Wednesday for Mt. Clemens, Mich., where he will spend several weeks. He was accompanied by William Moten, formerly a member of the Williams and Walker Company.
Times are nothing like they used to be. You tell a man nowadays that you have a headache in the morning and he'll say: "Aha-a?" in a very nasty way.
RACE NEWS
GATHERED FROM VARIOUS SOURCES
New York, Oct. 19.—Edward Stadge, a Pullman car porter, inspired by jealousy, borrowed a shoemaker's knife from a cobbler today and killed Edna Snell, the proprietress of a boarding house for Pullman porters, at No. 57 Montgomery street, Jersey City, by stabbing her a dozen times. Half a dozen colored men watched the tragedy, afraid to interfere, but gave chase wnen he ran out of the house and chased him into the grasp of a policeman, who arrested him without difficulty.
According to the Montgomery Daily Advertiser, not more than 90,000 voters all told will be in a position to cast their votes in that State in the November election. There are 208,000 white men in Alabama who should vote. The various schemes for disfranchising the white voters in that State, it seems, according to the advertiser, except about 90,000. Thus it is proven again that an injustice cannot be perpetrated upon the Negro without its affecting the white man at the same time.
Guthrie, Okla., October 10.—A Negro interstate passenger who was ejected from a train in Oklahoma for refusing to comply with the "Jim Crow" law cannot recover damages from the railroad company. This was decided at Newkirk last week by Judge Bowes, of the District Court. That feature of the law had not been considered in a court heretofore, and Oklahoma officials say the decision would be of great aid in enforcing the law.
Baltimore, Md., Oct. 19 — Word has been received here that the late Almira Gideon, colored, formerly in the employ of the Chouteau family, of St Louis, who was buried in that city Tuesday, has left the sum of $6,124 to the Oblate Sisters of Providence, who conduct the Convent of St. Francis, at Chase street and Forrest Place. For more than 60 years Almira served in the Chouteau family, the older members of which were numbered among the pioneers of St Louis. She was born in Baltimore in 1823 and was educated at St. Francis' Convent. She then went to St. Louis.
Savannah, Ga., Oct. 19.—Mrs. Ellen Young, a colored woman,
NO. 7
matron of the Paine Annex Home for colored girls, at Augusta, Ga., in a report to the Women's Board of Home Missions of the Methodist Church South, at a session of the convention here today, said: "Our graduates cannot enter the homes of whites as servants or housegirls. There is not sufficient protection in the house for them. When they finish their work at night they are allowed to roam the streets to be subject to temptation and are lost. They may return to their own families less pure and a disgrace to their families." She declared that in seven years she had known of 600 girls who went to the North, and expressed her belief that in 5 years 550 of them will have died or will return South broken in health.
New York, Oct. 19.—"Matt" Henson, who accompanied Commander Peary on his polar dash, was the guest of honor tonight at a dinner given by the leading colored citizens of New York. Chas. A. Anderson, collector of internal revenue, was the toasmaster, and the speakers included James A. Cobb, assistant United States district attorney, Washington, D.C.; W. S. Scarborough, president of Wilberforce University and Gilchrist Stewart, who led the fight for the Brownsville garrison. A heavy gold watch with a chain of icebergs linked together was presented to Henson, and telegrams of congratulation were read from Commander Peary and Dr. Booker T. Washington.
It is uncertain whether history can afford us an event more worthy of admiration than the representation of Negro education by Dr. Washington among the educators of the world, at such a classical celebration as the inauguration of the president of a leading institution of learning in the world, namely, Harvard University. It is one of those occasions where it is highly probable that the Negro could have been easily sidetracked and with impunity. As a race we can elaborately compliment ourselves in being so extremely fortunate in having identified among us one who displays that diplomacy, ability and integrity which will intelligently represent the race, upon any occasion, and who never seems to be neglected, forgotten nor left out.—Cambridge Advocate.

An aching back is instantly relieved by an application of Sloan's Liniment.
This liniment takes the place of massage and is better than sticky plasters. It penetrates — without rubbing — through the skin and muscular tissue right to the bone, quickens the blood, relieves congestion, and gives permanent as well as temporary relief.
Here's the Proof.
Mr. JAMES C. LEE, of 1100 9th St. S.E., Washington, D.C., writes: "Thirty years ago I was a patient of Dr. Sloan, injured my back. I suffered terribly at times; from the small of my back I was so swollen that I had been beaten with a club. I used every plaster I could get with no relief.

FOREST RANGER EXAMINATIONS
LARGE CLASSES OF WOULD-BE FORESTERS BEFORE SUPERVISORS IN COLORADO.
TESTS ARE PRACTICAL
SURVEYING, ESTIMATING AREAS RIDING, CAMPING AND KNOWLEDGE OF TREES.
Denver. — Throughout Colorado Tuesday were held field examinations of about 150 applicants for the position of forest rangers in the United States forestry department. Probably the largest class of candidates was examined on Grasshopper Hill in this city. Under the direction of Acting Supervisor C. M. Granger of the Pike national forest, twenty-two men were tested in surveying, estimating areas, pacing, horseback riding and the handling of horses, packing camping outfits and the identification of tree and forage plant specimens.
Monday the candidates underwent written examinations. These consisted of questions concerning methods of grazing, surveying, lumbering, forestry, mathematics and other subjects pertaining to the duties of forest rangers. The field tests Tuesday were successful and were completed in the afternoon. The men were required to set up compasses, sight the instruments, and to survey certain tracts of land. Emphasis was laid upon work in estimating areas by pacing and comparing the estimates with the results of surveys. Forest rangers often must calculate areas without instruments, and skill in doing so is important in their labor. Various tree specimens and forage plant specimens were given the candidates for identification. Such identifications were required this year for the first time.
In the matter of packing camp outfits the tests were perhaps most interesting to casual observers. The candidates displayed divers and various methods of rolling their outfits into compact and portable bundles. They differed also in saddling and handling horses. Whether or not all are good riders will only be known officially when the examination results are announced. Supervisor Granger was assisted in the test by Forester W. I. Hetchison and Forest Ranger F. P. Sobey. At all headquarters of forest supervisors the examinations have been held during the past two days in Colorado. Tests were given at Fort Collins, Steamboat Springs, Glenwood Springs, Durango, Westcliffe, Leadville, Collbran, Delta, Monte Vista, Meeker, Hot Sulphur Springs, Saguache, Mancos and Aspen.
During the winter it is probable that the service of many rangers will not be required, but next spring the force will be enlarged with the possibility of greater work.
Denver.—State Game and Fish Commissioner T. J. Holland Tuesday telephoned to Sheriff A. C. Ellison of Rio Blanco county, instructing him to go over to the head of Douglas creek and order the band of Indians campse he found that they had killed any deer. He was told to take a sufficient force of men with him to enforce his demands if the red men were ugly, and if they resist there is a fine chance for a little trouble.
The Indians are from the reservation near Fort Duchense, Utah, and they are supposed to be awaiting the first fall of snow which will drive the deer down out of the mountains. The Indian agent at their reservation promised Commissioner Holland that he would look after his charges, but up to the time Commissioner Holland notified him of their presence in Colorado he had been unaware that they were off the reservation.
Game Warden Robert Weir of Meeker wa sent over to the Indian camp last week and has reported that there are between twenty and thirty of them at the head of Douglas creek. They had killed no deer yet, so far as he could learn, and under the circumstances he could do nothing with them. They refused to move away at his order, so Commissioner Holland has enlisted the services of Sheriff Ellison.
The incorporation election at Limon Monday passed off quietly, not more than twenty-five per cent of the total registration voting. The vote was forty-two for incorporation and five against it. One year ago last June ninety-eight votes were polled and the majority against incorporation was two.
Milliken, the new station on the D., L. & N. W., west of Greeley, is a cement town. Practically every building erected in it is made of cement, fireproof and warranted to stand for years. The town has just put down a number of wells to furnish a water supply and has doubled its population within three months.
Owing to the ever-increasing value of the company's investments in Colorado, the Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company, at Milwaukee, has elected attorney Joel F. Vaile of Denver one of the board of trustees of the company.
Boulder Odd Fellows will make an effort to secure the location at Boulder of the proposed Odd Fellows' home.
The twenty-sixth annual session of the Boulder County Teachers' Association will convene at Boulder November 5th.
The Rev. Thomas E. Bliss, one of the pinoneer Congregational ministers of Colorado, died in Denver a few days since at the age of 85 years.
The campaign to raise $100,000 for the erection of a Young Men's Christian Association building at Pueblo resulted in securing subscriptions to the amount of $111,462.25.
Vice-President Green of the Denver, Laramie & Northwestern Railroad Company, has placed orders for rails for the terminal road into Greeley, which he says will be built within sixty days.
The case of Mrs. Allen F. Read, alleged to have attempted to extort money from Mrs. Genevieve Chandler Phipps by the use of dynamite, is scheduled on the criminal docket at Denver for the 15th of November.
The new St. Joseph Catholic church at Salida was formally dedicated Sunday. Right Rev. Bishop Matz of Denver was in charge of the ceremony. Rev. David O'Dwyer of Leadville delivered the dedication sermon. The cost of the building is about $15,000.
Much interest is manifested by people of the mountain camps in the semi-centennial celebration at Boulder November 24-25. Each camp will be represented by a maid of honor and these, with the ploneers of '59, will be the guests of the city during the celebration.
The new tubercular sanitarium established last June by Dr. George H. Mott of Freeport, Ill., at the mouth of Boulder canyon, in Boulder, is crowded, necessitating additional room to take care of the patients attracted to Colorado by the healing air and climate.
It is reported at Greeley that workmen are leaving the ditch camps in the Beebe Draw country because of fear of rattlesnakes, which are unusually numerous and vicious this fall. Ranchmen are organizing parties to hunt snakes. Theodore Walbridge and William Bedlin killed thirty in one day with shotguns.
The county of El Paso has constructed sixty-eight bridges during the summer, ranging from fourteen to 140 feet in length. Much progress has also been made in making and repairing county roads, in addition to the work being done in co-operation with the state in the new highway between Colorado Springs and Canon City. From forty acres of new land east of the new town of Zeta, in Weld county, T. J. Latch has taken 5,000 sacks of potatoes, 1,000 sacks of which contain potatoes each weighing not less than two pounds. The crop is considered remarkable for quality and size and sixty sacks will be sent to the irrigation congress in Chicago next month.
The Bar J. H. Cattle & Land Company has filed with the county clerk of Pueblo county a map of the Boone creek reservoir and supply ditch from Haynes creek, which will be supplemental to the Chico irrigation system. The reservoir and ditch will cost $236,000. The dam will be sixty-five feet in height and will hold 242,225,350 cubic feet of water. Gov. John F Shafroth left Denver on the 22nd inst. to join President Taft and his party at St. Louis, the starting point of the trip down the Mississippi river to New Orleans, in which about thirty-one governors are to take part. The trip will last about six days and the governor is expected back the latter part of this week. During his absence Lieut. Gov. S. R. Fitzgarrald will occupy the chief executive's chair.
A great scarcity of laborers is reported from the irrigation construction camps in northern Colorado. Constant demands are being made upon the Denver employment agencies but the calls for men cannot be met. This scarcity is due to some extent to the wholesale desertion of the laborers to help gather the fruit crops. This is much more profitable work while it lasts, and many of the men employed upon the irrigation projects have sought employment as apple pickers.
On November 4th 15,000 acres of government land in the San Luis Valley will be disposed of to settlers under the direction of the State Land Board. The land will be allotted by drawings which will be held at Antonito. The land is very choice and is all under a completed canal and reservoir system. Any citizen of the United States over 21 years old, male or female, can participate in this drawing. The State Land Board will send full particulars to any one interested.
With the object of securing irrigated land, a delegation of farmers from Iowa and Illinois has sent word that they will arrive in Greeley by November 10th. It is expected that their visit will result in the expenditure of several hundred thousand dollars in Weld county.
Greeley potatoes will be on the bill of far of the dining cars of the Union Pacific and Santa Fe Railroads for some months, as 60 carloads, or 18,000 sacks, have been contracted for by these roads from the Green City district.

“Front”
By JOHN A. HOWLAND
OW MUCH “front” do I need to put up? :
This is a question which obtrudes itself upon the average
young man who finds himself among his fellows on the com-
petitive basis that exists in the modern large business. If
the question were put to me in this form as a generality, I
should be tempted to answer it in the same terse style:
“Just as much as the traffic will bear!”
I don’t wish to destroy the conventions, Conventionality
is a good thing so long as it is in harmony with conditions of
fant. Rit hat. anpnasénitanel taal tae eo lee tol sch
prove destructive to that person who in doing so loses his sense of
proportion, For example, the model office boy 40 or 50 years ago care-
fully untied the string from a parcel and more painstakingly removed
the manila wrapping from it, with the idea of preserving both string and
wrapper for future use. Frankly, I would be pleased if conditions now
were such as to admit of this old-fashioned office boy in modern business.
But they are not, and to teach the potential small office boy this old con-
vention in effect would be lying to him.
So it is with much of the conventional generality of the old school
which is still preserved by the didactic teacher. ‘True worth must prove
itseli—yes. But where and how? ‘That best and squarest street car con-
ductor in all of a vast city, grown gray in the collection of passenger fares
for his company, unquestionably hus proved his true worth—as a street
car conductor! But could not this same measure of true worth have been
better expressed in some other field of community usefulness? ‘That finest
individual type among 10,000 street car conductors must be capable of
something better than running a street car for 20 or 30 years. Why did
he not discover a better field in which to prove himself and his worth?
At bottom it is the ego in a man, kept well in hand, which makes
the individual man here and there tower as an individual above the heads
of the masses.
Set two men at work upon two tasks that are identical in a general
way. In one of them egotism is at a low ebb; in the other it is at high
tide, coupled with an imagination. One returns to you silently, having
done his work in a manner that is highly satisfactory in every way. ‘The
other, having accomplished no more than the first, returns to you with a
cheerful story of the difficulties and handicaps which he found in his way.
Pleasingly he recounts just how judgmatically and determinedly he tackled
these obstacles and overeame them. And in words or in acts and expres-
sion he has left the intimation that, no matter what the difficulties of
fis work in the future, you may depend upon him to
carry out his work. :
Which of these two men—granting that the ego-
ist has offered no more than the “traffic will bear’—
has impressed you more? And if these men continue
with you as employes the egoist playing upon you
with fine tact and discrimination, which of them after
a year or two are you more likely to choose for the
difficult task?
are all simmered down they may ‘be confined within a few simple rules
that, if carefully followed out, are most effectual when sleep is desired.
In the first place, the sleeping room should be away from noise. Tt
should be an airy room and one in which there is but little furniture and
few rugs. It should have neither artificial light, flowers, nor animals and
should be well ventilated, as much air being admitted in winter as dur-
ing the summer moriths.
The bed should be slightly inclined from head to foot and a mod-
erately hard mattress is desirable, If any pillow at all is used it should
be-a thin one, The heavy, downy affairs into which the head sinks are
undesirable for more reasons than one. ‘They tend toward making a per-
son round shouldered and the position they give to the neck interferse
with circulation.
‘There is much diyersity of opinion as to whether one should or should
not eat before going to bed. Usually it is better to retire an hour or so
after eating. It is never wise, however, to attempt to sleep when hungry.
In a case of this kind a cracker anda eup of warm milk are desirable.
‘The limbs should aljvays be outstretched—never cramped or folded,
and one should sleep on the right side. Sleeping on the back is apt to
produce nightmare and sleeping on the left side stops digestion and is
bad for the heart. It is not good for the lungs to sleep on one’s stomach.
Often a cold shower bath followed by a vigorous rub down with a
Turkish towel will induce sleep when a person is inclined toward insomnia.
bering that “He maketh the desert to blossom as the rose,” but I have
solved the problem and would now gamble on myself to live in sweet har
mony with a lion and her cubs and do co-operative housekeeping. Th
road was stony, but who cares for the stones when there are flowers a
‘the “end of the way?”

POLITICAL EVOLUTION.
CAREFUL observation and review of the changing standards of
politieal organizations and political elements in the United States dis-
closes some peculiar and startling tendencies of which the indifferent
citizen or hide bound partisan is not apt to take note, unless the facts
are laid squarely before him for his sober contemplation, But as the
drift of events should teach the dull as well as the alert, it is well to
have these facts brought to light occasionally for the general good
which they ought to serve. The Democratic party has passed through
various stages of evolution in the past twenty years, under supposed
progressive influences which have carried it from the Jeffersonian
standard, so-called, into Populism, thence into the ranks of the cur-
vency reformers, thence it assumed the role of special labor ayitator
end then it beeame a party whose sole mission seemed to be to criticise,
assail and reform the judicial and legislative foundations of the gov-
ernment. But all the time it has retained the name of the Democratic
party. The Republican party has changed no less, Progressive among
Republicans have sailed away from the old landmarks until nearly all
the leaders of the old school of Republicanism have been driven into re-
tirement, and the new policies of the party have taken on a character
caleulated to make Republicans of those who were once the party’s un-
compromising opponents. Old line Democrats wail that there is no
Demoeratie party any longer, and stalwart Republicans mourn the
death of the principles which they loved. The majority of each par-
ty’s followers have changed base with their leaders, or made new and
strange allignments. Many former Republicans are now Deinoerats;
more former Democrats are now Republicans.
Two weeks ago the New York Age, a Republican journal, struck
a strange note when it stated that the Republican party was bidding
for the Negro yote in the present city campaign, and asked what the
Republican party had ever done for the Negro voters of New York
City, remarking that Tammany Hall keeps scores of Negroes in im-
portant positions,
Over in Oklahoma, the Socialists are making a strong bid for the
Negro, asking him to join the labor unions and urging the labor unions
to join hands with the Negro against proseriptive laws, and all this
under the leadership of a former Democrat of wide prominence. The
Negro, however, is about the only man who remains steadfast in his
first faith. He is the only original Republican left. If he really should
begin to change like other people, we wonder what the effect would be.
SHATTERING OF IDOLS.
BACK over the past few months
ttered, he cannot help raising
led forth by the late Robert In
- people in Denver have follow
As One Looks Back over the past few months and scans the record
of people’s idols shattered, he cannot help raising in his mind’s eye the
question so often called forth by the late Robert Ingersoll: ‘What must
we do to be saved?’
For years many people in Denver have followed blindly the teach-
ings of Thomas M, Patterson and his co-laborers in his newspaper and
political fields. For as many years these people have had implicit con-
fidence in his oft-asserted freedom from taint of corporation money.
‘They have believed that the Senator, his newspapers and his political
organization stood at all times for the best interests of the people against
what he always has called the interests of the predatory corporations.
Now they have been disillusioned. The Senator has confessed that
for years he gladly took the money of a public utility corporation and
used the assistance of that corporation as a stepping stone to the aceu-
mulation of his present large fortune. The Senator, however, did not
register his confession until the goods were shown on him, nor until
he had gotten himself into a delicate position by frequent denials of
similar charges that were not supported by the documentary evidence
bearing his signature in his own handwriting.
It is now charged that the Senator has not confined his propen-
sities for securing the corporation pap to the operations with the old
Water Company in the years gone by, but that he even now is reeeiy-
ing or until yery recently did receive large remuneration from the
‘Telephone Company.
This remuneration being in the form of free toll service through-
out the state for his two newspapers and aggregates many thousands
of dollars each year.
Perhaps this explains the fact that the Pattersonial papers, while
filled with tirades of abuse against other corporations, are suspiciously
silent where the interests of the Telephone Company are concerned.
While the Senator is confessing would it not be well to make a
clean breast of that connection and let the people know just how deeply
he has gotten into the corporation pork barrel,
He is an old man now and not long for this world. It seems that
he owes it to himself and to the people who have had confidence in him
to acknowledge just how far he has trodden the path that he deems so
sinful for others to tread. Surely he will find more peace in his re-
maining years, and insure greater happiness in the next world if he
goes before his maker with clean hands so far as he may make amends
by repentance even though it be of the eleventh-hour variety.
The expose of the senator’s taint coming so closely on the heels
of the State Land Board seandal that still hangs as a cloud over Editor
Keating, and being followed so closely by the ousting of John A. Rush,
the senator’s closest political adviser, from the chairmanship of the
Municipal Ownership party, has created many vacancies in the ranks of
the leaders who have been idolized by the people.
Where will they turn to be saved?
Who will come forth as the Moses to lead them from the corpora-
tions Egypt?
The pendeney of the water franchise agitation appeared to prom-
ise new leaders in the persons of Richard Wolfe and his associates who
for some time have been busy forming water consumers’ leagues in va-
rious parts of the city. Some of these leaders, however, have cast their
Jot with the discredited Pattersonian contingency, and Mr. Wolfe is
battling for his life in an effort to keep at least part of his organization
drom falling into their hands. Wolfe knows that the Patterson crowd
cares nothing for the interests of Denver or her people, and it desires
only to control the organizations opposing the Water Company so it
may use them to punish old-time enemies and make such political capi-
tal as was exposed during the Tramway franchise contest.

Tt is a sad but true fact that few men
or women are able to enjoy the careless,
dreamless sleep of a child. It is also a fact
that if men and women would do good
work and have pleasure in the doing of it,
sleep, and plenty of it, is essential. And it
is another and more serious fact that, prob-
ably owing to the strenuous life of the
world to-day, insomnia is more prevalent
than it ever has been before.
How to defeat this bugbear is the ques-
tion and it is one that has been answered
by authorities in numbers of ways. But

Shepard Shelton, well known in Grand Army circles as an old soldier, died in Oklahoma this week. He will be buried in St. Louis, Mo., where he is survived by a son, his only living relative.

Mrs. Carrie P. Douglas, Mrs. Mabel Fallings, Miss Blanche Boone, Miss Maybelle Price, E. Bignell and J. H. Doniphan took the civil service examination Saturday for the thirteenth census enumeration.

Club No. 9 will give a chitterling and fish supper at Scott's Chapel Saturday night, November 6th. Mrs. Anna Cox is the energetic captain. You are cordially invited to be there.
The December rally is looming up with more interest than ever. The clubs are busy at work. The members are presenting their cards to every liberal giver. Do not turn them down. It is the Lord's money.
The Third Quarterly Conference will be held on the 20th and 21st of November. The Rev. J. J. Cabbell of Independence, Kans., will hold the quarter. He will remain in the city to be present in the Union Thanksgiving service which will be held at the Zion Baptist church.
The Junior League had a good attendance last Sunday. Superintendent Bobo desires to see more of the young people who live in the immediate neighborhood of the church. "Come and go with us and we will do you good."
Misses Cox and Rice will present one of the best musical and literary programs ever presented at Scott's. Don't fail to be there on Thanksgiving night. The Ladies' Aid will feed the crowd with the fat of the land. Plenty of good things will be there to suit the most fantastic and fastidious appetite. Don't fail to eat dinner with us.
The Sunday school is picking up in attendance and interest. Superintendent Anderson and his faithful wife are leaving no stone unturned in building up the school. The first Sunday in the month will be observed as Missionary day and the proceeds go to the Home Mission Church Extension Society. It was only a few years ago that this society gave to our church $500. Let us pay some of this money back, that other needy churches may be helped.
The official board has planned to do great things in the near future. You will hardly know the old church edifice in a few weeks. Watch the members of Scott's Chapel work. They are in harmony and there is nothing to defeat them. These are some of the things that they will do: paint the church, build a coal house, put in a lawn, put up a new sign board announcing the services, make a black-board to make announcements of the weekly services and entertainments, put in new chandeliers, calcimine the walls of the church. We ask your aid and sympathy in this great work.
Scott's Chapel has one of the best locations in the city. Our people are settling around Five Points very rapidly. In a few years this will be an aristocratic colored neighborhood. Scott's Chapel will try to do her duty in trying to raise the ideals of living among our people.
NOTES OF THE PEOPLE'S PRES BYTERIAN CHURCH.
Sermon topics tomorrow—11 a. m. "The Great Hope"; 7:30 p. m., "A Call to Service."
The pastor and congregation in an especial way thank both the ministers and their members for their timely support in making our rally a financial success last Sabbath.
The Choral Club, under the conductorship of Mr. A. A. Waller, with Mrs. Dr. Faulkner at the piano, rendered exceptionally good music. Our gratitude to this elect choir of ladies and gentlemen will never be forgotten.
The dense darkness that enveloped Presbyterianism among our people in Denver for some time is being dispersed rapidly, and light's golden rays are to be visibly seen on the future horizon of our church work.

To The Colorado Statesman:
Senator Patterson in an editorial in the News Tuesday morning attempting to dispute the valuation claimed by the Denver Union Water Company for its water rights made a showing that indicates that the opponents of of the company have a woefully weak case on the water right question.
The weakness of the showing on water right values suggests that it would be well to analyze carefully the cheap water plant claims made by the Senator before taking them too seriously. The News could find no argument against the valuation placed upon the company's rights for irrigation purposes except that it was allowed on the quantity of water supplied under the rights during twelve months in the year. With owl like wisdom the News remarked that the irrigation season lasts only six months and during the balance of the year the water runs to waste, therefore it is useless for irrigation purposes.
The News forgets, or perhaps carefully evaded the fact that the water company has built and maintains a large system of storage reservoirs for the purpose of catching the non-irrigating season and flood waters, and storing them for delivery when they are needed. The capacity of these reservoirs according to the best information available is more than 100,000 acre-feet of water. Taking this into consideration it can readily be seen that the company needs to divert only a small portion of its 138,506 acre feet during the irrigating season.
It is generally conceded in Colorado that the irrigation project which has behind it ample reservoir capacity for the collection of the non-irrigating season and flood, waters is much more reliable and valuable than the project that depends solely upon direct flow. It stores water when the land does not need it and releases it as required.
If the water company had no reservoirs the claims of the News might have some foundation, but under the circumstances it is shooting away from the target. The water company's storage rights are the best in the Denver district. IRRIGATOR.

NO ASIATICS MAY BECOME CITIZENS OF UNITED STATES
No Asiatics, whether Caucasian, Mongolian or otherwise, are eligible to citizenship in the United States.
All Europeans, excepting Turks are eligible.
Natives of Africa and persons of African descent are eligible.
Indians across the border or half breed Indians are not eligible.
half breed Indians are not eligible. The above rules are the result of court decisions and the policy adopted by the bureau of immigration and naturalization. The supreme court of the United States has not yet been called upon to construe the naturalization law, which was passed in 1802 and had been amended from time to time since.
When the fathers of the republic in 1802 drafted the naturalization laws they incorporation therein that "white" persons should be eligible to citizenshippip in these United States. Since then the definition of "white" has been a source of bother and annoyance to courts and bureaus.
It has finally come to an agreed construction that "white" does not mean Caucasian or Aryan, but just "white" and the European extraction. There are federal court decisions from Massachusetts to Washington and some state supreme court decisions that lay down this doctrine.
The federal statute makes an exception in favor of the Negroes who were given as a heritage to the country following the Emancipation proclamation. In 1870 the naturalization laws were amended by the addition of the following section: "The provisions of this title shall apply to aliens being free white persons and to aliens of African nativity and to persons of African descent."
On Thursday press dispatches from New Mexico stated that Federal Judge McFie had denied the application of a Syrian for naturalization papers, holding that he did not come within the provision of the act which reads "free white persons."—The Post.

FATHER OF DRY FARMING DE-
FENDS HIS SYSTEM AGAINST
SECRETARY WILSON.
| Billings, Mont.—In spite of the fact
that the railroads interested in the
Northwest, as well as every land
agent in the Northwest and Middle
West who is interested in boosting
dry farming, wanted the name chang-
ed, the congress, by a vote of 372 to
148, decided to let it stand.
‘The railroads and land agents be-
lieve taat the term “dry farming” is
a misnomer and is a detriment to the
movement.
The farmers themselves, and they
had the votes, while they admit that
the farming of dry lands is impos-
sible objected to making the name
more attractive. The fight in Wed-
nesday morning's session of the
fourth dry farming congress, when
the question came up, was a warm
one.
Mr. Hill characterized the govern-
ment opening of the Flathead reser-
vation as a “huge fake,” enticing
people from all over the United States
to draw land while only 3 per cent.
got farms. He said the people spent
not less than $12,000,000 in railroad
fares, and while the Great Northern
got its share, he said that the money
was not what it wanted.
Mr. H. W. Campbell, whose experi-
mental farm operations have covered
twenty-six years, and who is known
as the “Father of Dry Farming,” took
occasion to answer Secretary of Agri-
culture Wilson, who was quoted re-
cently as saying that the Campbell
system of dry farming is wrong and
hurtful, and that the methods fol-
lowed by the dry farmers will de-
stroy the fertility of the soil.
“I regard it as exceedingly unfor-
tunate,” said Mr. Campbell, “that en-
couragement from official sources
should be given those who are crying
down and belittling the work you and
Tand all of us have been doing in re-
cent years in relation to dry land till-
age.”
Referring to Secretary Wilson's
plan to change the character 6f the
| soil by growing drought-resisting
| plants to turn under and suggesting
‘the use of the Russian thistle and
| sweet clover, he said:
| “I do not know what can be done
_with those plants, and I do not want
to dispute him as to the utility of
those familiar plants. But 1 am will-
ing to leave the field of investigation
of the usefulness of the thistle and
sweet clover and similar plants from
Siberia and the far North to the De-
partment of Agriculture.
“{ do insist,” added Mr. Campbell,
“that it is wrong and huriful and
wholly inexcusable for authority to be
given at Washington for sensational
attacks upon the work that we of the
West are doing. Better that ald and
encouragement be given in our work
of development of scientific soil cul-
ture by and through which we have
already achieved so much that Is of
permanent value.”
‘The officers of the congress for the
coming year as announced by the re-
port of the committee on nominations,
which was adopted, thereby electing
the officers, the following:

Taft on Governor's Pay.
Helena, Ark.—During his address at
the banquet on board the St, Paul
President Taft took excention to the
policy of some of the states, including
Colorado, of docking the salary of the
governor when absent from the state
President Taft said:
“[ know there are some states un
wise enough to charge a governor,
when he leaves the state, by paying
somebody else out of the governor's
pocket; but Iam honefnl those states
are few and that it will not be a pen
alizing of governors to invite them to
‘come to Washineton.”
GEN. 0.0. HOWARD
DIES SUDDENLY
THANKED BY CONGRESS
Coen AN ARM IN BATTLE AND
Burlington, Vt.—General Oliver O
Howard last of the Union command-
ers of the Civil War. died at his home
here Tuesday night of heart disease.
He was seventy-nine years old.
Last week General Howard was in
Ontario delivering is lecture on
“Abraham Lincoln.” His last public
appearance was at London Sunday
night.
Monday he returned to his home
here and was apparently in his usual
good health. Tuesday night he was
attacked by heart trouble and was
dead when a physician reached the
house.
Including General Howard's serv-
ices in the Indian wars, he probably
was in more engagements than any
other officer in the United States
Army. He was born in Leeds, Me.,
other officer in the United States
November 8, 1830.
Of the five illustrious commanders
of the Army of the Tennessee, Gen-
eral Howard was the only survivor.
Grant, Sherman, McPherson and Lo-
gan died before hmm. ‘They all made
names from Nashville to Atlanta. Mc-
Pherson died at the latter place, Lo-
gan was the hero of July 22nd in the
great battle there. Sherman was the
campaign director, Grant was the
head and Howard himself was called
by Sherman the “Stonewall Jackson”
of the northern army. He succeeded
to the command of the Army of the
Tennessee after the death of McPher-
son at Peachtree creek. General How-
atrd participated in more prominent
engagements of the war than any offi-
cer now living. he was with McClel-
lan in the peninsular campaign, and
lost his arm at bair Oaks.
Later he went down the bloody way
to Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville,
Gettysburg, Atlanta and Fayetteville.
For his gallant services at Gettysburg
he was thanked by congress in a se-
ries of resolutions, His pronounced
Christian character was well known
through the war, and was so stead-
fastly maintained that he won then,
and has always held since, the confi-
dence and love of the people of the
entire nation. He \.as the friend and
intimate of Dwight L. Moody, and they
were together when the steamship
Spree was wrecked.
General Howard was a first lieuten-
ant in 1861. Twenty years later he
made the Indian campaign against the
Nez Perces and the Brule Sioux, and
won as high a reputation in fighting
them as he did in the Civil war.
General Howard was the author of
“Donald's School Days,” “Nez: Perees
Joseph,” “Life of Azenor de Gaspa-
rin,” “Life of Zachary Taylor,” Isa-
bella of Castile,” “Fighting for Hu-
mauity,” “Henry in the War.” He was
‘lag a popular lecturer.
Murder of Prince /to.
Harbin.—Prince Hirobumi Ito was
assassinated at the ‘Tsaitsagan railway
station here ‘Tuesday at the rhoment
tho Japanese diplomat was acknowl
edging the nolsy welcome that had
greeted him as he stepped down from
the couch that he had occupied in the
railroad train,
Smiling and bowing he turned tc
make his way toward the Russian fi
nance minister, M. Kokoysoff, who was
awaiting him on the station platform
a few paces distant.
Suddenly a half dozen revolver shot:
[fired in quick succession were heard
followed by the cries of those stand
ing near the prince, who had either
been wounded or imagined themselves
to be.
At the second report Prince Ito
staggered and fell, It was subsequent
ly found that he had received threc
bullets, two of which entered the ab
domen. Prince Ito did not recover
consciousness and died twenty min
utes later.
Prince Ito's private secretary _re
ceived a bullet, as did Japanese Con
sul General Kawakan and General
Manager Tanaka of the South Man
churian railway, who had move
closer to the prince as the firing be
gan, It is thought that these thre
fare not mortally wounded.
‘Phe perpetrator of the outrage wa
not hard to locate, as he stood de
flantly in the crowd, revolver in hand
He proved to be a Korean, and witt
two companions of the same nation
ality boasted of a conspiracy to tak
the life of the former resident genera
of Korea In satisfaction for the allege
tyranny of the prince over Korears.

The opening will be under the supervision of the Colorado State Land Board, and no special advantage will be given to the landowner. All interested will have an equal opportunity. Names will be registered at the office of the Toote Coonization Company, 501 Boston Building, Denver, Colorado, where the land will be purchased. The numbers will be put in a barrel, and the first number drawn will have first selection, and drawing will continue until the land is not owned. If the holder does not file, all money will be refunded immediately. The Carey Act permits one person to file on land for another by proxy, and applicants may secure land through an agent and need not attend the drawing personally, or go to the land until they make final proof, which may be done within three months or any time within three years. This is the most liberal act under which you can obtain government lands.
LAND ALL UNDER COMPLETED CANAL
AND RESERVOIR SYSTEM.
This is the first Carey Act project in Colorado to be offered to settlers with canal and reservoir completed, and water wafted on the land.

The above is only one of the thousands of grateful letters which are constantly being received by the Pinkham Medicine Company of Lynn, Mass., which prove beyond a doubt that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, made from roots and herbs, actually does cure these obstinate diseases of women after all other means have failed, and that every such suffering woman owes it to herself at least give Lydia E.

USE FOR FIRELESS COOKER
New Idea Is Invaluable in the Proper Preparation of the Cereal.
Few people cook their cereals long enough.
As served in many families, the cereal is thick, lumpy, and, if the truth were known, indigestible.
It is made too thick in the beginning, because time is not allowed for it to cook long enough to become so.
Oatmeal is most sinned against in this respect.
It should be cooked four hours at least, longer if possible.
It is really best if cooked over night, and in many careful families this is done.
Put it on the back of the stove at night, then the first thing in the morning draw it over the hotter part and let it finish cooking.
This is difficult to manage where gas stoves are used.
It would be impossibly extravagant to leave a gas jet turned on for the whole night.
These are growing to be more and more used, and are eminently useful and practical for such purposes.
The Home.
When frying mush dip the slices first in the white of an egg. This makes it crisp.
After washing the lamp chimney polish it with dry salt. It makes the glass bright and will prevent is breaking.
A vanilla bean kept in the sugar box will impart a delicious flavor to the sugar. This is a bit of advice from a French chef.
Salt thrown into the oven immediately after anything has been burned in it will make the objectionable odor less disagreeable.
Grind a handful of sunflower seeds and give them to the canary. The birds relish the little tender pieces that are found among the seeds. When running dates, figs or raisins through the food chopper, add a few drops of lemon juice. It will do much toward preventing the fruit from clogging the chopper.
A delicious salad is made from canned cherries and pecan nuts tossed up with a well-mixed French dressing. Served on leaves of lettuce hearts it is as pretty as it is tasty.
A housewife who never misses an opportunity for improving her table says that she always keeps a vanilla bean or two in her sugar jar. It imparts a flavor that is delightful.
For Invalids.
Beef Juice.—Take lean round steak. Heat it slightly in a pan over the fire, then squeeze in a warm lemon squeezer. Season with a little salt. Serve in a colored claret glass, as invalids often object to beef juice on account of the color.
Baked Milk.—Put the milk in a jar, covering the opening with white paper, and bake in a moderate oven until thick as cream. May be taken by the most delicate stomach.
Glycerine and Lemon Juice.—Half and half on a piece of absorbent cotton is the best thing to moisten the lips and tongue of a fever parched patient.
Onion Gruel.—Boil a few sliced onions in a pint of fresh milk, stirring in a little oatmeal and a pinch of salt; boil until the onions become tender and take at once.
Peach Short Cake:
Sift four level teaspoonfuls of baking powder with two cupfuls of flour. Cream half a cupful of butter with a rounding tablespoonful of sugar, and add a well-beaten egg, a cupful of milk, and then the flour. Turn into a large cake tin and bake in a quick oven. Split the cake open with a broad knife made hot, and spread with peaches which have, been peeled, sliced fine and sweetened to taste. Serve a spoonful of whipped cream with each portion.
Grape Preserve.
First stem Fruit, weigh it, then pulp grapes, cook pulps until seeds separate from fruit. Strain in fine strainer or cheesecloth. After it is thoroughly squeezed put skins and juice on to boil for about ten minutes, then add sugar (using about one-half pound to each pound of fruit). Cook this ten or fifteen minutes longer. The sugar should be heated in oven in pan before adding to hot juice, the same as you would for jelly. Put in jars while hot
Almond Icing.
Whites of four eggs, one pound sweet almonds, one pound sugar, a little rose water. Blanch the almonds by pouring boiling water over them and stripping off the skins. When dry, pound them to a pasté, a few at a time in a Wedgewood mortar, moistening it with rose water as you go on. When beaten fine and smooth beat gradually into lecing. Put on thick and when nearly dry cover with plait lecing.
Shortcake Filling.
One cup cranberries chopped fine one-half cup raisins chopped fine, one-half cup boiling water, one tablespoon corn starch dissolved in little cold water and stirred in while the mixture is boiling, one cup sugar, one tablespoon vanilla.
Chicken Salad.
Two cups chopped chicken, two hard-boiled eggs cut in small pieces quarter cup chopped mixed pickles Arange on lettuce leaves with creamy dressing.

CURED ITCHING HUMOR.
Big, Painful Swellings Broke and Did Not Heal—Suffered 3 Years.
Tortures Yield to Cuticura.
"Little black swellings were scattered over my face and neck and they would leave little black scars that would itch so I couldn't keep from scratching them. Larger swellings would appear and my clothes would stick to the sores. I went to a doctor, but the trouble only got worse. By this time it was all over my arms and the upper part of my body in swellings as large as a dollar. It was so painful that I could not bear to lie on my back. The second doctor stopped the swellings, but when they broke the places would not heal. I bought a set of the Cuticura Remedies and in less than a week some of the places were nearly well. I continued until I had used three sets, and now I am sound and well. The disease lasted three years. O. L. Wilson, Puryear, Tenn., Feb. 8, 1908." Potter Drug & Chem, Corp., Sole Props, Boston.
Silk Stockings Indispensable.
Silk Stockings Indispensable.
Susan B. Anthony was a woman of simple taste in dress, but her close friends knew of one pretty feminine vanity she always held to. She had a weakness for silk stockings. Being pressed on one occasion for an explanation of what most women at one time regarded as an unnecessary extravagance, she laughingly exclaimed: "Oh, I just love 'em. They are an inspiration. If I have my silk stockings on when I rise to make an address, I feel just like I am walking among the clouds. They help me to soar away on flights of eloquence. I wouldn't be without them."
Try This in November.
Thousands upon thousands of families who have not been regular eaters of Quaker Scotch Oats will begin on the first of November and eat Quaker Scotch Oats once or twice every day for thirty days of this month; the result in good health and more strength and vigor will mean that every other month in the year will find them doing the same thing.
Try it! Serve Quaker Scotch Oats plentifully and frequently for the thirty days of November, and leave of a corresponding amount of meat and greasy foods. You'll get more health, more vigor and strength than you ever got in thirty days of any other kind of eating.
While you are trying this see that the children get a full share.
Quaker Scotch Oats is packed in regular size packages and large size family packages.

Where Inspiration Sits.
Mrs. Quilluser came tiptoeing softly into her husband's study, rested a hand lightly on his shoulder and peered over at the sheaf of half-written sheets on his desk.
"What are you working on now, dearest?" she asked gently.
"On Mary's mittens," he answered pleasantly, but without looking up. Mrs. Quilluser studied a moment, as if planning. "Dearest, Willie needs a pair of shoes more than Mary does the mittens. I have already promised them to the poor boy. Hadn't you better work on Willie's shoes first, dear?" "All right, Nellie, all right," he replied kindly, turning his eyes up into Nellie's great patient ones. Then he pushed back "An Ode to the Dancing Leaves" and cheerfully began to write a Sunday special on "A New Substitute for Coal."—Puck.
Never Opened His Mouth.
"Not infrequent rays of unconscious humor illumine the otherwise impossible stories that come to my desk from amateurs," says a reader for one of the magazines. Recently I chanced upon this choice bit:
"John, the husband, and Grace, the wife, ate on together in silence. There was indubitably an ill feeling between them. The husband devoured a plate of soup, half a fish, an entree or two, a piece of roast beef, together with a sweet, without ever once opening his mouth."

A Simple Exercise.
A simple exercise that has the ad-
vantage of being practicable in any
moment of leisure is muscular con-
traction and expansion of the abdo
men to keep it tiat.
Sit very erect in a chair or stand
with the shoulders well back. Clasp
the hands over the abdomen and with
out moving any part of the body quick-
ly contract the abdominal muscles.
Hold a second, then relax quickly.
It is important not to lift the cheat
in these movements, though at first it
will be hard to prevent.
Do not exercise these muscles toc
long at a time. A minute is enough
at first, and pever more than three
minutes continuously.
Very Large Handbags.
‘The handbag has become one of
the comforting possessions of the
housekeeper, the business woman
and the shopper. The growth of the
