THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RAGE COUNTRY PARTY THE LAND OF EMIGRANTS THE FOURTH ARTICLE IN THE SERIES CALLED "THE MAN FATHEST DOWN" BY BOOKER WASHINGTON. VOL. XVII. THE LA EMIC THE FOURTH ARTICLE IN MAN FATHEST DOWN" BY One of the most interesting experiences I had while in Europe was in observing the number of different classes and races there are in Europe who look down upon and take a hopeless view of, certain of their neighbors because they regard them as inferior. For example, one of the first things I learned in Italy was that the people in northern Italy look down upon the people of southern Italy as an inferior race. I heard and read many times while I was in Italy stories and anecdotes illustrating the childishness, the superstitution, and the ignorance of the peasant people and the lower classes generally in Southern Italy. In fact, nothing that I have known or heard about the superstitution of the Negro people in America compares with what I heard about the superstitution of the Italian peasants. What surprised me more was to learn that statistics gathered by the Italian Government indicate that in Southern Italy, contrary to the experience of every other country, the agricultural laborers are physically inferior to every other class of the population. The people in the rural districts are shorter of stature and in a poorer condition generally than they are in the cities. ```markdown ``` For all these reasons I was the more anxious to learn for myself what these people were like. I wanted to find out precisely in what this inferiority of the southern Italian consisted, because I knew that these people were very largely descended from the ancient Greeks, who, by reputation at least, were the most gifted people the world has ever known. The city of Naples offers some advantages for studying the Southern population, since it is the port at which the stream of emigration from the small towns and farming districts of the interior reaches the sea. The exportation of laborers to America is one of the chief businesses of that city. It was at Naples, then, that I gained my earliest first-hand knowledge and acquaintance of the Italians of the south. I think the thing that impressed me most about Naples was the contrast between the splendor of its natural surrounding, the elegance and solidity of its buildings, and the dirt, disorder, and squalor in which the masses of the people live. It was early morning when I arrived in the city for the first time. The sun which was just rising over the black mass of Vesuvius, flooded the whole city and the surrounding country with the most enchanting light. In this soft light the gray and white masses of the city buildings, piled against the projecting hillside to the right and streaching away along the curving shores to the left, made a picture which I shall never forget. Some of the sunshine seemed to have got into the veins of the people, too, for I never saw anywhere so much sparkle and color, so much life and movement, as I did among the people who throng the narrow streets of Naples. I never heard before so many curious human noises or saw such vivid and expressive gestures. On the other hand, I never saw anywhere before so many beggers, so many barefooted men, so many people waiting at the station and around the streets to pick up a casual job. It seemed to me that there were at least six porters to every passenger who got off the train, and these porters were evidently well organized, for I had the experience of seeing myself and my efforts calmly parceled out among half a dozen of them, every one of whom demanded, of course, a separate fee for his services. Very few persons who go to Naples merely as sightseers ever get acquainted, I suspect, with the actual conditions of the people. Most travelers who see Naples are carried away by the glamor of the sunshine, the color, and the vivacity of the Italian temperament. For that reason, they do not see the hard struggle for existence which goes on in the narrow streets of the city, or, if they do, they look upon the shifts and devices to which this light hearted people are driven in order to live as merely part of the picturesqueness of southern life and people. I have been more than once through the slums and poorer quarters of the colored people of New Orleans, Atlanta, Philadelphia and New York, and my personal observation convinces me that the colored population of these cities is in every way many per cent better off than the corresponding classes in Naples and the other Italian cities I have named. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JUYL 8 1911. As far as the actual hardships they have to endure or the opportunities open to them, the condition of the Negro in these cities does not compare, in my opinion, with that of the masses of the Italians in these southern Italian cities. There is this difference also; the majority of the Negroes in the large cities of the South and North in the United States are from the country. They have been accustomed to range and wander in a country where life was loose and simple and existence hardly a problem. They have not been accustomed to either the comforts or the hardshids of complex city life. In the case of the Italians life in the crowded, narrow streets, in the unsanitary intimacy and confusion in which men, goats, and cattle here mingle, have become the fixed habit of centuries. It is not an unusual thing, for instance, to find a cow or a mule living in close proximity, if not in the same room, with the rest of the family, and, in spite of the skill and artistic taste which show themselves everywhere in the construction and decoration of the buildings, the dirt and disorder in which the people live in these buildings are beyond description. Frequently in passing through the streets of these southern cities one meets a herd of goats wandering placidly along over the stone pavements nibbling here and there in the gutters or holding up in front of a house to be milked. Even where the city government has made the effort to widen and improve the streets, let in the air and sunlight, and maintain sanitary conditions, the masses of the people have not yet learned to make use of these conveniences. I recall, in passing along one of these streets, in the center of the city, which had been recently laid out with broad stone sidewalks and built up with handsome three and four story stone buildings, seeing a man and a cow standing on the sidewalk at the corner of the street. It seemed to me that the natural thing would have been to let the cow stand in the street and not obstruct the sidewalk. But these people evidently look upon the cow as having the same rights as other members of the population. While the man who owned the cow was engaged in milking, a group of women from the neighboring tenements stood about with their pitchers and gossiped, waiting their turn at the cow. This method of distributing milk, namely, by driving the animal to the front door and milking while you wait, has some advantages. It makes it unnecessary to sterilize the milk, and adulteration becomes impracticable. The disadvantage is that, in order to make this method of milk delivery possible, the cow and the goats must become city dwellers and live in the same narrow streets with the rest of the population. Whatever may be true of the goat, however, I am sure that the cow is not naturally adapted to city life, and where as is true in many instances whole families are forced to crowd into one or two rooms, the cow-stall is likely to be still more crowded. Under these conditions I am sure that the average cow is going to be neither healthy nor happy. DISFRANCHISEMENT BILL INTRODUCED IN GEORGIA Columbus, Ga., June 24.—The complete disfranchise of the Negro in Georgia through a test which must prove his character so faultless and unquestionable that "a modest and virtuous female" may be trusted to his care without a natural white male protector, in the dark or in other places of seclusion, with a perfect security of her person, is the aim of a bill to be introduced in the Georgia Legislature next week by Captian J. J. Slade, representative from Muscogee County. The application of the test to applicants for registratian, or Negroes already registered, is expected to purge the sheets of practically every one of the 12,000 Negroes who now vote in Georgia through meeting the requirements of the existing bill seeking to apply disfranchisement. The application is to be made by the Registrar, with obvious results, in the events defined in the first section of the bill. The woman must appear in person and verify the statement before the Registrar, and her standing in the community must be unquestioned. It might at first appear that this bill and its plan is the product of some crank, but such is not the case, and letters from Representatives indicate that it has a fair chance of passage if it is properly handled. Captain Slade is one of the real friends of education in this state, and has done much to place this means of advancement within the reach of the Negroes. He is a friend of the Negro and believes that there is hope for him but frankly admits, his conclusion that it is unwise to trust him with the ballot or to permit his temptation by corrupt politicians or the yearning for equality that repose in every black breast. He thinks it will be generations before the Negro can be safely trusted to participate in the government of himself and his white brethren. Singing and Work. Singing and Work. A man who sings at his work should remember that he isn't the only one on the job who may be entitled to happiness. - Atchison Globe. RACE NEWS GATHERED FROM VARIOUS SOURCES United States Minister Harry W. Furniss will remain at Port au-Prince indefinitely. In view of the multiplicity of candidates, the President deemed it the better part to "let well enough alone." The Afro-American Ledger of Baltimore has installed a unity type typesetting machine. This is the only one of its kind in any local printing office, white or colored, and its installation has excited considerable interest among the local printing fraternity. Baltimore, Md., June 28.For the first time in the history of this city a few of the public schools will be kept open during the summer months. There will be four schools including one for the colored pupils. The schools will contain the first eight grades and will admit pupils who failed of promotion. Prof. J. R. Paul Brook will have charge of the school for colored pupils. At the graduating exercises of the Brighton high school June 22, 56 young men and women received diplomas. Miss F. Marion Reid, a young colored girl, 18 years old, was valedictorian of the class. Her points covering the entire four-year course were 95 out of a possible 100. It is the first time in the high schools of Boston that a colored girl has graduated at the head of her class. During the evening two scholarships were announced by Head Master Frederic A. Tupper. Miss F. Marion Reid was awarded a $100 scholarship at Simons college. A. Eugene Thompson, of Lincoln Institute, Berea, Ky., recently offered a prize of $200 for the best corn raised by colored farmers. One would think that such an offer would not go a begging, since it was meant for good of the farmers. Offers similar are being made right along, noted in agricultural journals and for the purpose of getting the best returns from given conditions. This is in the interest of development in the meanwhile; thus, while the yield is larger, insuring more money, the result is more satisfactory by way of the product itself, having in mind the most perfect is the most desirable. New York, June 28.—A colored man, the first ever appointed to the New York police force, began his duties today. There have been NO 43 two colored bluecoats in Brooklyn, who were taken into the Metropolitan force at the time of the consolidation and who are still serving but Samuel J. Battle, 28 years old, of 27 West 136th street, is the first colored man to be made a policeman since the merger. Battle has remarkable physical development. He is six feet two inches in height and weighs 285 pounds. He says he has never been ill a day in his life. Boone, Ia., June 28.—Negro miners of Ogden, numbering 161 who are suing John P. White, International President; W. H. Rogers, Iowa President of the United Mine Workers of America, and other mine officials, for more than $1,500,000, began presenting their case to Judge Wright here today. The Negroes claim they were imported into Ogden under misrepresentations, and ask damages in the sum of $10,000 each. The suit grows out of labor troubles a year ago when white miners, learning that the strike was costing the union $200 a day, resumed their work, and later resigned in small numbers. The Negroes were imported to fill their places, but were refused admission to the union. They also ask that they be permitted to form a union of their own. Atlanta, Ga.—Admitting that he knew James Allen and Joe Watts, Negroes accused of attacking a white woman, would be lynched if taken to Walton County for trial unguarded by troops, Judge Charles H. Brand, of the Northern Judicial Circuit, today defended his action in refusing to ask for soldiers to protect the Negroes by saying: "While I want to discharge every duty which the law imposes upon me, I don't propose to sacrifice any white man's life for all the Negro criminals in the country, by assuming the responsibility that the law does not impose upon me, and in taking this position I am in perfect accord with my conscience and my God. I would not imperil the life of one white man to save the lives of a hundred Negro criminals. "If I had called the militia and some young man among the soldiers was killed or some of the citizens of Walton County were killed, I would never forgive myself." Judge Brand puts the responsibility for failing to guard the Negroes on Governor Brown and Sheriff Stark to protect the Negroes. 1519 CURTIS STREET Ice Cream, Ices.

Fire of unknown origin, starting in the rear of a saloon at Hawthorne, Mineral county, Nevada, caused loss of $25,000. Leslie Miller, who lived near New Hampton, Iowa, murdered his wife and two of his five children, and then committed suicide. Jim McWard, flying a biplane at Wichita, Kans., made a spectacular flight over the city attaining a height of more than 7,000 feet. Fifty men are working desperately to rescue two miners imprisoned in the Whirlwind tunnel at American Fork Utah, by an earth cave. Crazed by heat, Mrs. Maud McCrary of Los Angeles, Cal., killed her three small children and ended her own life in a vacant house in Lockney, Texas. "Texas is to have a banner crop this year, unless indications fall," declared E. F. Adams, assistant general passenger agent of the Santa Fe railroad at Galveston. Separated only by a few seconds two earthquake shocks, the heaviest since the big shake of 1906, jarred the central portion of California and western Nevada. Each shock lasted about five seconds. It required the services of a detail of the state militia to prevent a long suffering but disappointed crowd at Glendive, Mont., from running an airship into the Yellowstone river because it would not fly. Six hundred thousand acres of land will be opened to settlers under the registration plan, 150,000 acres being within Fort Berthold Indian reservation, North Dakota, and 450,000 acres in the Pine Ridge and Rosebud reservations in South Dakota. Clyde Mattox, who is known to have slain four men and has been accused of killing a fifth and who was famed as an outlaw in the territorial days of Oklahoma, has been released from state prison and his citizenship restored after he had served twelve years. Accompanied by very heavy rains, destructive cyclones swept over south central South Dakota. Farmers witnessed the demolition of their barns, outbuildings and trees with complacency, as the rain will benefit the crops sufficiently to cover the cyclone damage a thousand fold. Closely pursued by the town marshal, a pickpocket leaped into the basket of a balloon near Sayre, Okla. just as the air craft was leaving the ground and sailed away to safety. The balloon had been filled with gas and the aeronaut, George Harvey, was in the basket ready to start when the marshal discovered the pickpocket taking a purse from a pocket of a citizen whose attention was centered on the balloon. WASHINGTON. Capt. John B. Scoeffel, tenth infantry, has been ordered to Fort Logan, Colo. When the government's fiscal year closed June 30 the federal treasury held a cash surplus of at least $33,000,000. Another investigation is proposed. Representative Raker of California introduced a resolution for the investigation of the public land laws. The Canadian reciprocity situation has cleared to a marked degree and a canvass of the situation in the Senate was in every way assuring to the friends of the measure. Senator Guggenheim's bill authorizing the President to appoint an additional federal judge for the District of Colorado was reported favorably from the Senate committee on judiciary by Senator Clark of Wyoming and probably will pass the Senate when bills on the calendar are again taken up for consideration. A weather record for the season was made here July 2nd. The official temperature was ninety-eight and the suffering was increased by the humidity. No immediate relief, it was said, is in sight. Downtown thermometers registered 107. Twenty deaths from severe heat and forty-seven from drowning when relief was sought in the water, were reported from various sections, with one suicide due to the high temperature. All formalities necessary to the final conclusion of the general arbitration treaty between America and England could be completed within four hours, assuming that the machinery was working properly and smoothly, is the official declaration. Postmaster General Hitchcock, in announcing the addition of fifty more postal savings depositories, noted with satisfaction that the opposition of banking institutions had almost disappeared. Applications for authority to receive postal funds are being received from forty banks a day FOREIGN. Returns for the five days ending June 26 show that there are ninety-seven cases of cholera in Naples. The sensations caused by Germany's action in sending a warship to Agadir, Morocco, showed no signs of abating, and diplomatic circles are said to be in a ferment. It is estimated that sixty persons received more or less severe bruises in the street panic following the explosion of a bomb in Calle Bordedaros, Italy, near the corner of Calle Mayor, at the moment that a parade was passing through the latter thoroughfare. SPORT In the thirteenth round of a lively fight in San Francisco, Ad Wolgast defeated Owen Moran, the English champion. President Lynch of the National league suspended infielders Miller and McKechnie of the Pittsburg club for three days. Manager Clarke of Pittsburg was fined $5 for discoloring the ball.

Walden of New, York fell nearly a hundred feet in his monoplane, at Mineola, L. L., smashing it to pieces. Forty-nine automobiles, valued at more than $125,000, have been stolen in Chicago since June 1, according to the police records. Five persons, four of them women, were killed and two injured in a grade crossing accident near Ozone park, in the suburbs of New York. Two persons were killed and seventeen others injured when a Pennsylvania express train for Atlantic City sideswiped a local passenger train at Lucaston, a little station, north of Camden, N. J. ames Conroy, who was struck by lightning while working 1,500 feet under ground in the Courtdale tunnel of the Kingston Coal Company, near Wilkesbarre, Pa., is in such a precarious condition that his recovery is not expected. The Supreme Court of the United States has issued an order to the attorney general directing him to instruct the lower courts to carry out the Supreme Court's decision providing for the dissolution of the American Tobacco Company. The thirty days allowed the company to ask for a rehearing has expired. From the old-fashioned celebration of the Fourth thirteen deaths was the total reported in the United States. The nation-wide spread of the sane Fourth movement brought fruit in the smallest number of celebration casualties ever recorded. In nearly every city where the use of explosives by individuals was prohibited, no accidents were recorded. The Missouri Pacific railway and the Cumberland Gap Despatch, operating via the Old Dominion steamship and Norfolk & Western lines, have entered into a traffic alliance for the operation of daily through merchandise cars from Norfolk, Va., to Denver, Pueblo and Salt Lake, handling business originating at New York, Philadelphia and other seaboard territory. From cities east of the Rockies, broiling in a temperature of 190 or higher, ninety-five deaths are reported, which, added to sixty-nine brings the death toll of forty-eight hours to 164. Hundreds of prostrations are reported. Many of the victims were babies. Recently the state of Idaho made arrangements to extensively advertise that state, and one of the schemes was to send good talkers about over the country talking for the state on the street corners with groups of men or individuals, as the case may be, in a sort of heart to heart way. OVER 500 ARE KILLED BY HEAT THOUSANDS SUFFER FROM SUN STROKES IN LARGE CITIES OF THE EAST. RECORDS ARE BROKEN PERIOD MEMORABLE FOR WIDE EXTENT, DURATION AND LIST OF FATALITIES. Western Newspaper Union News Service. Washington.—More than 500 deaths are to be credited to the great heat wave of July 1 to 5, 1911, which has somewhat abated. The torrid period will be memorable in weather annals for its wide extent, its long duration, its record breaking temperatures and the long list of fatalities which it has caused. The hundreds of news dispatches which cities from the north Atlantic seaboard west to the plains states have exchanged in the last four days account, according to a careful review for the deaths of 431 persons from the heat and eighty from drowning, a total of 511. Incomplete as the record is from the failure of many points to report specifically the number of deaths, it is as serious a showing as is remembered for many years, if not a record. The number of prostrations is still more difficult to compute, but it apears that thousands have been over come by the heat in the great cities The hot wave is breaking. Although temperatures in some localities are above 100, the torridity is about to be dissipated, according to the weather bureau experts. The middle West, especially beyond the Mississippi valley, still is in the grip of the hot wave, but cooler weather is expected there within the next few days. Weather bureau officials took an optimistic view of the situation and held out promise for early relief. There was much suffering here, the temperature on the street reaching $104\frac{1}{2}$ although the weather bureau gave the official temperature as 98. Three persons are dead. There were many prostrations. Reports received from eastern and Atlantic coast states show a decided falling in temperature in twenty-four hours. Boston, which sweltered at 17, found relief when the thermometer rose only to 94. Portland, Maine, is 20 degrees cooler, 82 being the highest recorded, Philadelphia and Buffalo, N. Y., with 94; New York City with 92, and Baltimore and Washington with 98 are other Eastern cities which showed drops in temperatures. Light showers were reported in the upper lake region and brought relief to that section. At other points in the West the weather was fair, with the thermometer hovering above 100. Concordia, Kan., was the hottest place, with an official record of 108. Chicago and Dodge City, Kan., reported 102; Des Moines, Iowa, and Omaha, Neb., 106; Kansas City, Keokuk and Dubuque, Iowa, 104; Wichita, Kan., 100 and St. Louis, 98. New York.—Although the forecaster's prediction of "not quite so warm," was fulfilled, the maximum temperature being only 92, as against 94, sweltering humanity in New York found little satisfaction in lower thermometer readings. The exhausting effects were manifested in the record tally of heat prostrations and a swollen death list. The health board issued a circular advising prompt medical treatment for even slightly ailing children. Thirty-six deaths in one day is the record for New York. Urges Land Investigation. Washington.—Representative Baker of California urged the adoption of his resolution providing for an investigation of public land laws and their administration. He said so many complaints had been received that the public lands commission should familiarize itself with conditions. Rain Gives Relief. Topeka, Kans.—Rain has fallen in many sections of Kansas and the long drought is broken. Farmers are nappy. Demand for Postal Bonds. Washington. — Postmaster General Hitchcock says applications from depositors to purchase postal savings bonds July 1st aggregated 42,000. Maine Explosion From Within. Washington. —The loss of the battleship Maine was caused by the explosion of her three magazines. No such effect as that produced upon the vessel could have been caused by an explosion from without. Such is the opinion of Gen. William H. Blixby, chief of engineers, U. S. A. Eleven Stabbed at Country Dance.

COLORADO Greeley.—Eastern capitalists will investigate a rare kind of sand, suitable for making the finest pottery, that has been uncovered in Weld county, about ten miles west of Carr. Delta Challenges the United States. Delta.—Delta county has issued a challenge to every county in the United States as to the number of cars of fruit shipped this year, claiming she has no rival anywhere. Suits Against Circus. Cripple Creek.—Three actions have been commenced in District Court against the Cole & Rogers circus, each plaintiff asking $5,000 damages for personal injuries as a result of the collapse of the circus seats during an exhibition. Greeley Postoffice Robbed. Greeley—Yeggmen who drilled open the cafe in the Greeley postoffice recently, taking over $10,000 worth of stamps, and considerable registered mail, were not satisfied with their haul and entered the postoffice again and attempted to force the second safe in the cffice. Western Slope Gets Good Rain Montrose.—Drenching rains have fallen on the Western Slope, the first in two months. Crops are greatly benefitted. Some of the towns reporting heavy rains are: Pueblo, Loveland, Boulder, Breckenridge, Sterling and Trinidad. Henwood Case Comes to End. Denver.—The jury in the case of Frank H. Henwood, being tried on charge of killing Geo. E. Copeland, returned a verdict of murder in the second degree. Judgment will be reserved in order to give defendant time to file motion for new trial. Henwood will be tried also for killing Von Phul. Pueblo.—By the finding of human bones in a closet of a cheap lodging house here, what is believed to have been an atrocious murder, is revealed. The discovery was made by a new proprietor of the place in cleaning up dirty premises. Wrapped in a newspaper of Jan. 1, 1911, date were found practically all the bones of a man. Platteville Wins Honor. Platteville.—First and second places, respectively, among the commercial clubs of the state for having made the great percentage of gain in membership in the contest lasting from May 15 to May 18, were won by Platteville and Evans. Platteville's club increased from five members to seventy, making a gain of 1,420 per cent, while Evans made a gain of 1,067 per cent. Greeley Postoffice Robbed. Greeley.—Drilling a hole in the combination lock, burglars looted the safe of $10,261 in stamps, besides taking registered letters in the safe and about $10 in money, which had been placed there after banking hours. Envelopes and postal cards were untouched and there is no way, at present, of ascertaining the value of registered mail taken, but it is considerable. That the burglars were familiar with the office is evident from the fact that they did not attempt to open the other safe, standing near by, which contained only records, books and miscellaneous papers. Chewin' Less and Drinkin' More. Denver—During the year between June 30, 1910, and June 30, 1911, Colorado didn't do as much "chewin'" and smoking as in the period ending June 30, 1910, judging from the fiscal report of the internal revenue department.

Colorado Gets Rain. Denver.—Nearly an inch of precipitation in most parts of Colorado has fallen. Accompanying the rain came a drop in temperature that made Colorado the coolest place in the United States. The general rainfall in eastern Colorado means thousands of dollars in increased crops.

AND SHORT ORDER HOUSE Social Problems By ELIZABETH BIDDLE EN, because of the exactions of their business, are allowed to | M pay their social calls on Sunday afternoons and during the evenings of the week. ay No man calls upon a woman except at her invitation, 2 AE unless he has previously sent her a letter of introduction. He PNGT pays his first call preferably on her formal receiving day, but Wi (| if he is unable to command the leisure for an afternoon call AN he may ignore fashion and call in the evening, about nine o'clock. In making a call a man usually leaves his overcoat, stick or umbrella, hat and gloves in the hall before entering the drawing room. He may, if he chooses, carry his hat and stick into the room at a first or formal call, if it is to be very brief. He should put his card on the hall table or on the tray offered him by the servant who opens the door. | He should always remove the right glove before he offers his hand to the hostess. The hostess, of course, offers her hand first, and until she does so a man should merely bow formally to all present. A man should always rise where a woman is standing, and only re sume his place when she is seated. A man never shakes hands when presented to a woman, unless the woman offers to do so, but always when introduced to a man. ‘A man is never invited to dine where he has not previously called. A call after each invitation is the civility demanded by good form, and a card should be left in person the day after a dinner, luncheon or breakfast. . No man ever brings a friend to call upon a woman without having previously asked her permission. No young girl visitor should receive calls from the men whom she knows without asking her host or hostess to be present, leaving the option with them, and she should not invite a man to visit her without first ask- ing permission of her hostess. If a woman is behind her tea table she need not rise to greet a man caller, but bow, offer his hand, and gracefully include him in the conver- sation, introducing him to those near her. When another caller enters a man stands up if he is seated. Under no circumstances does a woman accompany a man to the hall or front door when he is leaving the house, neither should she help a man on with his overcoat. Men leave their cards early in the season upon their acquaintances, 36 thaw ante tn he inainded in the ronnd of the vears.

The usual size is about three inches in length and an inch and a half in width, 'The man’s is engraved in full without initials, and always with the prefix Mr.” The address of his home or of his club may be engraved in the lower right hand corner. Some girls are undoubtedly born with thin-skinned, sensitive natures "that render their possessors’ lives a misery to them—if they choose to give way to the failings to which they undoubtedly incline. | ‘The sensitive girl enjoys things infinitely more keenly than her more ‘stolid sister, a thing for which she should be devoutly thankful. If once and for all she will but convince herself of her exceeding un- importance in the scheme of creation, she will speedily grow happier. Only while she is self-engrossed will everyone’s hand seem against her, and everybody bent on making her wretched. Every girl secretly longs to be the one love of a man’s life, and some- ‘times, cynics notwithstanding, she gains her wish. There are numberless good fellows who, having chosen their hearts’ desire, remain true in thought and word their whole life through. When something less is given her a girl is partly to blame. \ ‘The proper study of womankind is certainly man, and the gentle- man whose heart is always changing its occupants is really quite easily | known and avoided. it in the early period of its life is an incontestable medical fact, and it is to be deplored that not a few parents are guilty of negligence in the early stages of the child’s life. It is asserted that in order to attain the present perfection of the child’s life of today nature has been laboring for millions of years; moth- ers, therefore, must be the deciding forces to preserve properly and cau- tiously what nature has produced under trying, veiled circumstances for the ultimate benefit of mankind. \nespenannoany andes NU ied ale ya ne eae cnet” I D NewS) e Tv 7 COLORADO SA ATESMA AEE OMAN ee BE bor Se | |e. od Pre | alee [eee DiC 1G =e eh pe IE hath iN A IRS ae ee So ili oS 1 - Fld quieren ee Doe a Cros ee ae SOR Tid) EVEN S14. cop canoe eet eT since sa «jo ess ete oo RrOpelatN 1824 Curtis Street, Room 25, SUBSCRIPTION RATES: PAYABLE IN ADVANCE.

TOO EASILY SATISFIED. ‘The progress of the world indicates that contentment is one of the great- est afflictions that can beset mankind. If contentment were an asset that could never be disturbed this assertion might not be regarded as true, but as progress brings power and power ever seeks its own increase, a contented people, and therefore a non-progrssive people, is sure, in time, to become the prey and the serf of the restless elements of humanity. That discontent which makes a people strive ceaselessly for greater power is not an attribute of un- happiness, as unhappiness is measured in the minds of men, for the knowl- edge of increasing power is a greater source of happiness than the knowledge of temporary, but precarious peace and plenty. ‘The assurance of security and the inherent power of self-protection is the greatest asset of happiness that a people can attain, and this condition of self- sufficiency can only be maintained by ceaseless effort and striving. ‘The unequalled power of the Caucasian races has grown out of this un- remitting effort for self-security and improvement. It has carried them to the nominal mastery of the world, and made all meek and contented races their subjects or their prey. It is asserted in the individual the same as in the collective race, and is reflected in the pride, the self-assumption and the authority over others which the power of their kind makes them to feel to be their heritage and their right. The development of a similar power in other races is the only thing that preserves the autonomy of those races and gives them respect and independent character and standing in the world. Japan is the most récent illustration of this development. China, too big to be entirely subjugated, but long the object of exploitation, is slowly gathering her might behind the spirit of discontent. India, England's subject race, is seething with unrest. The Negro remains the only great race on earth that is content. In the depths of barbarity there is no ground for censure, but the Negro in civilization is far too easily satisfied. "The liberty for which he strives is not of that insatiable character which yearns for self-reliance and independent power. He has not yet caught the spirit of unrest, though of all freemen his lot is the hardest. Individually he is too content with peace and little. Those who direct the activities of this groping race, ought to endeavor to make more and more keen the discontent and unrest which its real prog- ress depends. RAISING THE STANDARD. rd of the American Negro is | it need be. It is lower thai onception of the fundamenta s too impatient of solid racial fons: formative period of 1 The general standard of the American Negro is lower than it should be, because it is lower than it need be. It is lower than it need be because the Negro entertains a misconception of the fundamental sources of success and happiness. The Negro is too impatient of solid racial effort, and endeavors to leap over the hard tedious, formative period of permanent racial develop- ment and to attain the higher and easter stations of life at a single bound. Racial advancement, of course, rests upon the effort of the individual, but individual effort is better shaped to the general needs of the people than to the selfish aims and desires of the individual alone. By that we mean that an individual Negro may so shape his course as to win personal success without bringing much credit to his race, and that is just what many Negroes are doing. The ever-present example of the white man, which should be highly veneficial, is often injurious, because we are inclined to skip over that part of it which represents hardship and patient sacrifice, to attain the higher forms of happiness which he has slowly earned. We may sometimes shrewdly take advantage of the white man’s conditions and rise to the apparent level of his social or commercial prosperity, but when we do so, we leave our race behind. When we jump from the ox cart to the automobile we leave the race in the ox cart. This is thought to be within the range of ligitimate personal privilege, but it usually calls for a big sacrifice of what might be, and ought to be turned into a racial asset. The incidentally suecessfnl Negro seldom turns his success to the benefit of his race, but selfishly endeavors to get away from his own. A glance over the lists of our rich individuals will reveal the truth of this assertion in a majority of cases( especially in the North, and too often in the South. The trouble lies in the fact that we do not shape our energies so as to gain success and wealth out of our own conditions, but believing those con- ditions too slow and barren, rely upon some relation or deal in which the white man is concerned. Hence, when we succeed, we think we owe our race nothing, and usually live accordingly. The short-sighted aversion of our educated and intelligent men and women to devoting themselves to pure and absolute racial enterprise in their fundamental and necessary forms of development, is at the bottom of all this. Great individual successes and a corresponding and inseparable degree of racial improvement are thereby lost. This unlearned lesson was given direct force by Booker T. Washington in an address to three thousand people at Wilberforce College commencement. “1 know of no one influence, no one element, that would add more to the independence and the progress of the 9,000,000 of Negroes in the South,” said Mr, Washington, “than for us to have, within the next twenty years, 100,000 to 200,000 more intelligent, successful, independent farmers scattered through- ‘out this country; and these farmers should not be composed of the ignorant element of our race, but should be composed of the educated of our race.” Again: “There are openings in the South for 8,000 additional grocery stores, 2,500 additional drug stores, 2,000 shoe stores, 2,000 millinery stores, 2,000 Negro banks. Further, there are places in the South where at least 75 self-governing, self-supporting and self-directing towns or cities may be established, where the colored people can have their own mayor, their own board of aldermen, their own self-government from every point of view. In the last analysis, local self-government is the most precious kind of self- government.” Compare this picture of race possibilities with the present groveling for political favors, the scheming and straining for counterfeit business plunging and social standing, the questionable promotion of the lust for amusement and the rage for the gaudy, the easy and the low theatrical side of life, and you will have a clear view of the right and the wrong standards now set ‘before this race of ours. zy : © Young Woman Who Cannot Make Up Her Mind Infant Occupies Most Important Part in Life Cin are bors oe Sree { a fi a ee a as az Cand Ott a a.

Hicks; secretary, Mrs. Lyles; treasurer, Mrs. Ada Castry; choirister, Mrs. Latrelle; librarian, Jessie Holmes. We expect great things from this organization. Miss Lelia Rice is the efficient organist. Dr. I. Garland Penn spent last Friday in our city loking over the many attractions our city affords. He was much impressed with what he saw. He left that same day for St. Louis, Mo., wherehe goes to arrange for the great Missionary and Educational convention to be held in Union Memorial church, August '9-13. Mr. Cornelius Rice will leave for California next Monday. We regret much to see Mr. Rice leave at this time as he is such an active and efficient member of Scott's. He goes on the account of failing health. Mrs. Anna Bobo-Wilson has been appointed superintendent of the Junior League, which meets at 3 o'clock. Parents are requested to send their little ones to the League and we will see that they reach home all right. The official board voted a subscription rally for the last Sunday in August.

Fakes Its Name From President James Monroe, Who First Stated It in His Since Famous Message The Monroe doctrine, said to have been involved in the Mexican situa- ation, takes its name from President James Monroe, who in his message to congress in 1823 first formally stated it. It has been regarded as the corollary of Washington's policy of non-entanglement in European affairs. One implied our keeping out of European affairs; the other Europe keeping out of American affairs. As originally stated it applied to the boundary dispute in the northwest in which Russia, Great Britain and the United States were interested. Russia had assumed to exclude foreigners from disputed territory extending to the fifty-first parallel of latitude. President Monroe said: "The occasion has been judged proper for asserting a principle in which the rights and interests of the United States are involved, that the American continents, by the free and independent conditions which they have assumed and maintained, are henceforth not to be considered as subject for future colonization by any European powers." This controversy was settled in 1825 by treaty with Russia. This part of the doctrine was again formulated by President John Qaincy Adams in 1826 in proposed instructions to the delegates from the United States to the Panama congress. The second part of the doctrine dealing with non-intervention by Europe as the first dealt with non-colonization by Europe related to the proposed action of the Holy Alliance (Russia, Austria and Prussia), as announced in 1822, directed against the system of representative government in Europe and aiming at the reimposition of the Spanish yoke on the South American colonies then in revolt, the independence of which had already been recognized by the United States. This action by the European powers threatened British commercial interests in the Latin American states and England proposed to the United States a joint declaration against the action of the alliance. Without waiting for a reply from Washington, London, notified the French government of its opposition. President Monroe's declaration followed promptly. He said: "We owe it, therefore, to cander and the amicable relations existing between the United States and these powers to declare that we should consider any attempt on their part to extend their system to any portion of this hemisphere as dangerous to our peace and safety. With the existing colonies and dependencies of any European power we have not interfered nor shall we interfere. But with the governments who have declared their independence and manifested it and whose indefendence we have on great consideration and just principles acknowledged, we could not view any interposition for the purpose of oppressing them or in any other manner controlling their destiny than as a manifestation of an unfriendly disposition toward the United States." Before that Jefferson had said: "Our first and fundamental maxim should be never to entangle ourselves in the broils of Europe. Our second, never to suffer Europe to intermend in cis-Atlantic affairs." The doctrine has never received express legislative sanction, but rests upon the declared policies of administrations, voiced by the presidents. The interference of the United States in Mexico, compelling the withdrawal of the French in 1866; President Cleveland's warning to Great Britain in connection with the Venezuelan boundary dispute in 1893 and the practical acknowledgment of the doctrine by the European powers in the Venezuelan blockade in 1903 during Costro's presidency, are illustrations of the actual assertion of the doctrine that the United States opposes any permanent occupation of additional territory on this continent by a European power. Congress Has a Hot Time One reason for investigating the weather bureau may be mistrust of its reports that other towns in this country are hotter than Washington. Back of the Capitol is an unshaded plaza paved with asphalt, and here some of the sporty members go, each bearing an egg. They walk quickly out on the edge of the sunburnt area, break the eggs and then stand back in the shade and watch them fry. In the cloakrooms a supply of fresh collars and handkerchiefs are kept, and once or twice during each day's session the members retire and change collars. The usual costume in very hot days is a thin black alpaca coat—with trousers, of course—and a handkerchief tucked in the shirt collar. Earms Raised $8,926,000,000 The value of wealth produced on farms of the United States was $8,926,000,000 during 1910, as estimated by the department of agriculture in a statement just issued. This is an increase of $104,000,000 over 1909. Texas, with her 10,000,000 acres of cotton wrested from Illinois during 1910 the honor of being the first state of the Union in value of principal farm crops, which aggregate $364,110,000. Head of the Persian Legation at Wash- ington and His Charming Wife. A popular couple in Washington circles is Mirza All Knuil Khan, the head of the Persian legation, and his wife, Mme. All Kull Khan, who, before her marriage, was Miss Florence Breed, daughter of Francis W. Breed, of Boston. Mirza Ali has resided in the United States for the last twelve years. For five years he has been connected with the diplomatic service of the country. He lectured at Harvard and at the University of Chicago and also in Washington. His deep admiration for all things American is what has endearled him to the United States. His wife, who is a handsome young American woman, met her husband during his Harvard days, when she was penetrating into the lore of the Orient, and the marriage followed shortly afterwards. Three children Mirza Ali and His Wife. have been born to this happy union of whom the eldest is a sturdy boy of six, Rahim Khan. The other two are girls. The enthusiasm of Mirza all for the United States caused the remodeled Persian government to adopt the American system of finance rather than the French, which had almost been decided upon. Mme. Mirza All is a clever essayist. Many of her sketches of Persian life have been translated into the Arabic. She has mastered that tongue since her marriage, which occurred in Boston in the summer of 1904, and she now can assist her husband in his diplomatic and literary duties. Not long ago she received a decoration from the Persian government, "Moraven-cs-Sultan-eh," which means "Life Giver of the Empire." This was in acknowledgment of her writings and lectures on Persian subjects. With the title came a beautiful garment of dull cloth of gold heavily embroidered, called an abba. This is worn only on ceremonial occasions, such as receptions to the diplomatic corps at the White House. When she is clad in it, Mme. Mirza All is one of the most graceful and charming figures which can be seen in the diplomatic pageant. “TIGHT-WAD” CONGRESSMEN One-Termers of the New House Are Out for All They Can Save. In the new house of representatives there are a number of members who have a full realization of the fact that they are one-termers. They know that according to all human probabilities they will not be returned, and so they propose to make all they can out of two years in office. No expensive hotels for them. On the contrary, they are figuring how they can live on their mileage and clerk hire, and save their salaries. The result is that the superintendent of the house office building has had hard work to keep members from putting cots in their offices for sleeping there. It is said to be a fact that some of these "close" congressmen have insisted that they be given the right to move their trunks into the house office building and sleep there, though they have not yet proposed doing light housekeeping. Each congressman's office is furnished with two desks, a table, filing cases, bookcases and chairs, all mahogany, and one deep lounging chair, which in itself is almost comfortable enough to sleep in. But there are no sofas or couches, else the parsimonious members would not request the privilege of putting in cots, but probably would move in permanently without asking leave. The rooms have nice brussels rugs upon the floors and each has a wash stand, so that they could be turned into very acceptable sleeping rooms if the superintendent of the building would stand for it. Supreme Court Overtaxed. For the first time in eighteen years the term docket of cases for consideration by the Supreme court of the United States has reached 1,000. Of this number the disposition of probably 300 has been made by the court during the term, leaving 700 for consideration. The one thousandth case was an appeal of the Southern Pacific Railway company from the decree of the California federal courts, holding that it should pay the United States $70,000 for the sale of land in California mistakenly patented by the United States to the railway company. The case probably will not be reached on the regular call of the docket for argument within three years. ```markdown ``` The Shoe Wit Is the only shoe worth consid fit for your foot is the main o out what that shoe is by letti will only take a few minutes to have decided on the style you WHY S FOOT TO HENNING'S $ TWO STORES---820 a Supply Your Home Tivoli Bottle The Empire Phone G N.

A girl's first filtting from home sur- rounditgs and restraint 1s a pretty good test of her manners and true character. She often develops traits that she herself was never before aware of. How often to attract at- tention and court popularity at some summer resort the quiet sedate maiden suddenly becomes conspicu- ous and “sporty,” or strangers may have the effect of making her self- conscious and rude. She does not mean to be 80, but she often loses her perspective for the true fitness of things and a new environment breeds all manner of unsuspected qualities. If she would only realize the wealth of wisdom and the breadth of experi- ence that a well-bred girl may glean from traveling and meeting interest- ing people! She should never be cold and for- bidding to strangers, but she should also avoid the fatal mistake of rush- ing into intimactes which she will too often regret. ‘A gracious manner and good tem- per are charms which attract invaria- bly and the natural sweetness of girl- food is greater than any pose which she may try to assume. When visiting friends or relatives a guest should adapt herself as well as possible to her new environment and bring no jarring note or undue dis- turbance into the family circle. There ‘are so many little attentions that can bring comfort and joy into a house- ‘hold! If a hostess feels that her ‘guest needs constant entertaining and ‘amusement and special service, she will not wish to repeat her invitation so soon again, Never be late for meals, be pleas- ‘ant to the servants, observe the per- yading habits of your host and hos- tess, be thoughtful and considerate, so that when your visit 1s ended there will be true regret, and there will be a genuine ring in your hostess’ voice when she says, “Be sure and come soon again.” When Traveling. Don't try to “do your hair" in the dressing room of a sleeping car. You will either exclude other women or be fostled by them. Get the porter to push up the upper berth (you can pre- tall upon him by using tact or blan- dishments) and sit “Turk fashion” in front of the mirror. Cleanse your face, ears and throat with cold cream and violet water, arrange your hair. don your garments and step out of your berth as from your hotel room. A few minutes with toothbrush, nail brush and soap in the dressing room. and you are ready for the “first call for breakfast.”—Good Housekeeping. Rice Fritters. Beat two eggs until thoroughly oroken, then add one pint of milk, one- fourth teaspoon salt, one tablespoonful melted butter, two level teaspoonfuls of baking powder, one pint cooked rice, grated rind and juice of half a lemon, and flour enough to hold the mixture into a deep batter. Drop by dessert spoonfuls into smoking hot fat, and when the fritters float and are dell- zately browned remove to a brown, plain paper; dust with pulverized sug- ar when ready to serve. shown in the third hat picturea nere. To cut such a piece of lace is out of the question; a too short-sighted to entertain at all. It may be doubled, plaited or folded over, and laid over or about a white hemp shape and fastened to the shape with a band of handsome ribbon and rosettes of fine flowers. Rich lace should be applied to the shape with very little fullness. The design and work are to show and must be emphasized; therefore full gatherings are out of harmony. If there is too much lace in a length, one end may be rolled up and con- cealed under a trimming. FOR THE TRAVELER. Mis aoe : Soy ‘Shut FF “a unl ay A mrt hl = 4 Ni uy J Here is a smart traveling costume of fine nayy-blue serge, the collar and cuffs being finished with striped blue and white silk. The same design {s also intended for Tussore, with black and white ribbed silk trimming, the seams piped smartly with black silk; particularly becoming to a stout fig- ure. The Quaint Poke Bonnet. For the woman whose face can stand this piquant bit of headgear, the eight- eenth century poke bonnet is a most fascinating affair. Some of the smart milliners are showing spring and summer models in this shape. Often they are carried out in two kinds of straw—frequently black and white. On these hats the trimming is, of course, well toward the back. Some- times a great bow stretches across the straw, or clusters of dainty posies adorn the sides. The crowns on these poke bonnets are arranged fold-like and tilt well toward the back of the head to accen- tuate the “poke” effect. Luxurious Negligees. Some of the new negligees are hard to tell from the transparent coats which are displayed in other depart- ments, Between a pink chiffon bou- doir gown, embroidered in self color and dropped over a pink silk lining, and a pink chiffon embroidered coat over pink satin, there was so little radical difference that only one sophis- tieated in distinctions sartorial could have asserted which was for which. ‘The average woman, however, will content herself with one of the dis- tracting boudoir gowns of china silk and lace, or of flowered organdy cut in lovely long lines and inset with lace honeycombings, From Main Line Colorado Points on the The Denver & Rio Grande Railroad, “The Scenic Line of the World” $45.00 to San Francisco, Los Angeles and San Diego, Cal. $60.00 to San Francisco, Los Angeles and San Diego, Cal., one way via Portland or Seattle. $45.00 to Portland, Ore , Seattle and Tacoma, Wash., and Victoria and Vancoaver, B.
