MONEY SAVED BY PATRONIZING MERCHANTS WHO ADVERTISE IN THIS PAPER THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY LOGICAL SERMON Preached by a Presbyterian Minister at Charlestown, Ind. Lauds the Negro Race. Worthy to be Read and Digested. VOL. XVIII1. LOGICAL Preached by a Presbyterian Lauds the Negro Rac and Dige Charlestown, Ind.—In a sermon preached by request before the Negroes of this place by the Rev. T. M. Hurst, pastor of the Presbyterian church of Charlestown, he took for his topic. "The American Negro," and for his text: "The recompence of a man's hand shall be rendered unto him."—Prov. 12:14. Rev. Mr. Hurst said in part: "Looking into history the Negro finds plenty of men of his own race of whom he may be proud. Such men as Toussaint L'Ouverture, the Haytian Negro general and liberator; and Alexander Dumas, the French novelist, and Booker T. Washington, the American educator, and Fred Douglass, the American orator, and many others. "Take these as models for your race and reject the prize fighters and crap-shooters and rooster pullers of the race. Strive to be men and women. Strive to build up your home life on a basis of purity and love. Practice honesty among all men and cherish the truth as your own life. Do not seek to obliterate race distinctions, but strive to distinguish your own race by cherishing high ideals of home and citizenship. "Educate your sons to be men of high purpose, whose regard for honesty is more than a right arm, and teach your daughters lessons of modest and virtue and self reliance. Keep your home and church life clean, and do not allow yourselves to be classed with the low grade cattle who have disgraced Adams county, Ohio, and almost every other county in the United States. "It is no uncommon thing to hear men lament about the blunder that was made when the Negro was brought to America as a slave, but I am not so sure that slavery was a blunder. God moves in a mysterious way his wonders to perform, and he laid the foundations of all civilization in human slavery gave the world the foundation of all civilization in human slavery and gave the world the foundations of all law through the agency of a man born in slavery. It required more than 400 years of slavery in Egypt to work out the plans of God in providing a civilization and a salvation that gruadually opened to all men, and who knows for what purpose slavery was allowed in this land of the free and the home of the brave? "Born in a home surrounded by slavery, I never drew one breath of sympathy with slavery in any form, but as I have thought of it through the years, I have come to see that Negro slavery in the United States might be made to serve more than one good purpose. "Who knows but what, after all, the Negro may be the means of preserving the ideals on which our government rests? For nearly fifty years a tide of immigration from all races and nations has been flooding our shores with stronger sweep than the overthrow of Vandals and Goths and Visigoths that once swept over parts of Europe, bringing with them conflicting ideas, of moral and government that threaten the very foundation of our civilization. "During all this time the Negro, as a color line has stood, saying to these invaders, thus far, no farther, and as a result the old slave states stand today the champion of the ideals from which our nation sprung. In the midst of conflict and prejudice the Negro, unconsciously and silently, has stood as a wall of fire round about the home of his slave days, making it impossible for thoughts of anarchy and disloyalty to the American idea to find soil in which it sought to grow. "When God gave the promise Abraham little dreamed that the way to its fulfillment lay through four hundred years of slavery for his own people; and yet such was the case. The highway to the temple lay through the land of Goshen and the road was paved with bricks made by the hands of those who inherited in the promise land. In the great division of the world Africa—the largest and most fertile portion—became the inheritance of the Negro, but for some reason unknown to us he has never improved or enjoyed it. Who knows but that God in his wisdom may use American slavery as a means of lifting up Ethiopia? It may require a thousand years, but when the design of God is worked out in history men may as easily see the part American slavery played in it all as we now see State Hist & Nat Hist Society State House ONIZING MERCY ADC THE JOURNAL DENVER, COLORADO the meaning of slavery under the Pharaohs. Many things to which we object prove to be parts of a great plan. "When we study the history of the Negro race we find that, in spite of American slavery, the American Negro has reached the highest standard ever attained by the black race, and we easily discover that even now. His progress is moving with a rapidity that is a world wonder. Then, instead of blindly condemning what seems to us all a wrong, let us ask reverently for what purpose is this wonderful preparation of millions of the black race. It is possible that this is a part of the plan that shall lead to the civilizing and Christianizing of the largest division of the globe? "The American Negro is in preparation for some great purpose, and we should all be encouraged by his progress. Since the time the shackles of slavery were struck off the Negroes of America have to their credit two United States senators, seventeen congressmen, two registrars of the United States treasury, besides scores of representatives in the diplomatic service and in official life, municipal, state and national, and they have won championships in many other fileds of honorable endeavor. The latest figures to which I have access show that 1,200,000 Negro children are in public schools and 30,000 in our higher institutions of learning, and 200 in Northern and European colleges and universities. "Over 2,000 Negroes have been graduated from colleges and the professions show 30,000 school teachers and professors, 2,000 lawyers, 1,500 doctors, dentists and pharmacists, and nearly 25,000 ministers of the gospel. "More than this, Negroes have taken out 500 patents, published over 400 books, composed numerous songs, and now own and edit twelve magazines and 300 newspapers. "In other ways American Negroes have made remarkable progress. Besides many industrial establishments, the American Negroes own and manage twenty-six banks, and they own over $9000,-000,000 worth of real estate and personal property. "Recently Atlanta Negroes were asked to raise $40,000 in ten days toward a Negro Y. M. C. A. building to close a conditional offer of $25,000. When this ten day whirlwind campaign closed it was found that these Negroes had raised $67,000, or $27,000 more than was asked for. Pretty good for any race. So everywhere with every race. It is men who do things that the world honors. "Don't fret, then, about race distinctions and differences. They are here because they ought to be, and we should not change them if we could. Don't worry because the white man don't give you a chance. In this world unfortunately, every man is for himself and when a man takes advantage of you it is simply because of previous condition of servitude. The white man who tries just as hard to beat his own race. You will find men of your own race just as ready to do you wrong as men of any other. Set your aim high. Let your motto be honesty and integrity, practice industry and economy; cherish veneration for the men of your race who have attained unto great things; take their lives as models under God, deal charitably with all men and discourage the man who by his life brings a stain on the race, and hold up your beads and point with pride to what has been and is being accomplished by the American Negroes, and you will come in for your share in the inheritance under the text: "The recompence of a man's hands shall be rendered unto him." Washington Prosecutes Ulrich. The Educator's Assailant Again Pleads for Delay--Case Set November 6. New York City, Oct. 17.—Harry A. Ulrich, the drunken thug who so brutally attacked Dr. Booker T. Washington, the Tuskegee educator, on a public street in this city last March, was "brought to book" in the Court of Special Sessions, Part V, today, Judges Zeller, Mayo and Ryan presiding. Dr. Washington was in court to prosecute Ulrich; present also were his secretary, Emmett J. Scott; Hon. Chas. W. Anderson, Collector of Internal Revenue for the Second District of New York; Fred R. Moore, editor and publisher of The New York Age; Hon. Ralph W. Tyler, auditor for the Navy Department, Washington, D.C.; George W. Harris, of the Amsterdam News, and other of Dr. Washington's friends. The people of the State of New York were represented by Assistant District Attorney James E. Smith. Dr. Washington's personal attorney, Wilford H. Smith, was present as consulting attorney. Ulrich has continued to have this case delayed each time it has been called for trial, hoping that Dr. Washington would drop the prosecution; today, through his counsel, he again pleaded for delay, claiming that he had not been able to get his witnesses into court—this despite the fact that he had seven months to do so. District Attorney Smith opposed the motion claiming that his plea for delay was simply an effort to avoid the consequences of his brutal and uncalled for assault. The judges decided they would RACE NEWS GATHERED FROM VARIOUS SOURCES Spartanburg, S. C., Oct. 18.—Col. Victor Cheshire, of Gov. Blease's staff boasts in the current number of the Anderson Intelligencer, a weekly newspaper, of which he is editor, that he participated in the lynching of Willis Jackson, a Negro boy, at Honea Path last week. After helping to kill the Negro Col. Cheshire got an extra edition of his paper describing the event. Speaking of this journalistic feat, the editor says, in part: "The lynching took place at midnight, and two hours later the big press was grinding out papers telling of the happy event. The Charlotte Afro-American Presbyterian says: "Negroes and dogs" are not allowed at Lakewood park during the Summer when white people go there. The season for white people to attend this pleasure ground of Charlotte is over. The management now extends the use of the gronnds and the attractions to Negroes. They are distributing hand-bills inviting the Negroes of the city to come, and bring their children and give them a ride on the merry-go-round. The Negroes by hundreds are taking advantage of this opportunity to spend their money and get a little after-season pleasure. This sort of thing may suit some folks. Louisville, Ky., October 20.—A young woman, who gave her name as Miss A. S. Hall, a member of the Ohio delegation of suffragists who invaded Louisville today, was instrumental in saving an unidentified Negro from mob violence in front of the Seelbach Hotel tonight. The Negro had been chas- give him one more chance, and have set the case down for trial Monday, November 6. Dr. Washington has notified the District Attorney's office that he will cancel the series of engagements he has for Wisconsin and the West, made long since, so as to be in court and prosecute Ulrich. The assault occurred several months ago, and Ulrich at that time told contradictory stories of what led to it. To the police he said that he had taken Dr. Washington for a burglar, but to the reporters he said that Dr. Washington had insulted Mrs. Ulrich, his wife. Ulrich, however, was never married to the woman he claimed was his wife, and the real wife of Ulrich, who lives in New Jersey and was deserted by him several years ago, confronted him in court when he was arraigned for trial. ed two blocks by a howling mob of white men and boys and captured. Some said he had stolen an overcoat from an automobile standing in front of the hostelry. The demonstrations made were ugly and the Negro was being roughly handled when Miss Hall interceded. She planted herself in front of the black and ordered the crowd to stand back. It did. Police appearing at this juncture dispersed the angered men. The Negro's benefactor gave her name as Miss A. S. Hall to a patrolman and disappeared in the hotel. Investigation showed but one Miss Hall to have registered. She was Miss Laura Hall, from Cleveland. Efforts to get her to talk were unavailing. Nashville, Tenn., Oct. 17.—For the first time in the history of this city a Negro is a member of the City Council. He is S. P. Harris and was elected on the Republican ticket by his friends and admirers residing in the Third Ward at the municipal election held last Thursday. Mr. Harris has been a resident of Nashville for Fourteen years. The new City Councilman was born and reared in Mississippi. After attending the public schools of his county he entered Rusk University at Holly Springs, Miss., graduating from the college department with honors in 1889. Mr. Harris next studied law at the University of Michigan, finishing his course in 1891. He was admitted to the bar at Ft. Smith, Ark., and followed his chosen profession for several years at Helena, Ark. Nashville, Tenn., Oct. 17.—The raising of funds for a $200,000 colored training school in this city, to be a part of the American Interchurch College for Religious and Social Workers, is meeting with success on the part of the Negro citizens of Nashville. The first of $4,000 was made several months ago by Hon. J. C. Napier. Since that time the donations and subscriptions have reached the sum of $20,000. The establishment of the colored training school will fill a long felt need in the development of the Negro religiously and socially throughout the country, the aim being to train colored young men and women as specialist in moral, social and religious leadership among their people. At present the offices of the school are located in the Marshall Building, a large three-story brick structure, facing the Tennessee State Capital. THE BROADHURST CARTER SHOE CO.

COLORADO THE WORLD IN PARAGRAPHS A BRIEF RECORD OF PASSING EVENTS IN THIS AND FOR-EIGN COUNTRIES. IN LATE DISPATCHES DOINGS AND HAPPENINGS THAT MARK THE PROGRESS OF THE AGE. Western Newspaper Union News Service. WESTERN. Leroy James, the only negro candidate in the first election under Pueblo's new charter, drew first position on the ballot. The seventh annual convention of the National Commercial Gas Association was held in Denver and was attended by delegates from all over the nation. The Woodrow Wilson Democratic Club of Colorado sprang into being at a meeting held in the convention hall of the Albany, in Denver. Some hundred men and women were present. Out of eleven talesmen who sat in the jury box at the McNamara murder trial at the opening of court in Los Angeles, only six were left when court adjourned. Of these six it is considered more than possible that two or perhaps three will find themselves on the jury when it is sworn in. The Union Pacific will increase its shop force in Denver 500 men. The shops are to be enlarged to more than twice their present capacity. Practically all of the repair work in the Western district will be done in Denver and there will also be a rebuilding of cars in the Denver shops. Mrs. Mary J. Kendall of Rapid City winner of No. 1 in the Rosebud, S. D., land drawing, has a husband who is paralyzed and for six years she has been employed at day labor to support them. She has woven carpets by day, herded and milked cows and cared for her husband at night. Secretary James Wilson of the Department of Agriculture is opposed to federal appropriations for building highways, because, "if once started it might lead to nobody knows where." The secretary expressed the belief that the federal aid feature is instigated by automobile manufacturers. Two Indian students were severely injured and the main building and two smaller buildings of the St. Francis mission on the Rosebud reservation at Valentine, Neb., have bean entirely destroyed by fire. Loss $50,000. Nearly a hundred persons were in the building when the fire started and there were several narrow escapes. The forty-third annual meeting of the Woman's Board of Missions of the interior was held in the Plymouth Congregational Church in Denver. Fully 200 delegates from Colorado, North and South Dakota, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Montana, Ohio, Oklahoma, Wisconsin and Wyoming were present. Contending that the federal government is guilty of negligence in proceeding to forfeit the Oregon and California grant lands and that the outstanding bond-holders must be protected to the extent of at least $20,000,000 as their lien upon these lands, the Union Trust Company of New York has filed a long answer in the Federal Court in Portland to the government's suit. S. Chandler Rogers, who was attacked by three ruffians in New York City, the night of May 1, 1897, and thrown into the Hudson river, after his skull had been fractured, wandered about the world for fourteen years under the name of George Kelly, and was restored to himself in Seattle, Wash., as the result of a surgical operation that removed pressure upon his skull. His first act was to write to a relative and he then told his strange story. Ed. Suddeth, a negro, was shot to death by a mob of citizens at Coweta, Okla., who had armed themselves following a battle between blacks and whites in which Suddeth killed J. D. Beavers, city attorney, and wounded Carmen Oliver and Steller Thompson, white men. Suddeth was wounded and strung up to a water tank, but was cut down before he died and locked in a vacant building. Deputy Sheriff Flowers attempted to take the slayer to Wagoner to jail. As the negro was being lifted into an automobile, the mob opened fire on him. Probably fifty shots entered his body. That women may be drafted to complete the jury which is to pass upon the guilt or innocence of James B. McNamara in Los Angeles, is one of the interesting possibilities incident to the recent victory of woman suffrage in California. At a meeting in Beaumont, Tex., of the executive committee of the Southern Rice Growers' Association, the schedule of prices for rough rice were advanced ten to fifteen cents, according to grade. The new prices in grades in numerical order follows $3.25, $3.10, $2.85, $2.50, $2.20 and $2. SPORT. By a score of 75 to 0 the Fort Collins Agricultural college football team defeated the eleven of Fort Russell, Wyo. The Montrose County High School football team defeated the Grand Junction High School eleven at Montrose, by a score of 8 to 0. Accompanied by Marius Durand, the well-known promoter of Cripple Creek, Colo., Mike Malone, the Denver 124-pound boxer, left for Philadelphia to open a campaign in the East. Chicago prize fight promoters received a setback when it became known that the authorities at Gary, Ind., had given notice that no more prize fights can be held in that city. Negotiations are under way for a ten-round bout between Packey McFarland, the Chicago boxer, and Matt Wells, the lightweight champion of England, to be held at the Fairmont Athletic Club in New York early next month. FOREIGN. Dr. Frederick A. Cook, the Arctic explorer, arrived in Copenhagen recently but went immediately to Brussels. The town of Milpa Alta, Mexico, within three miles of the capital, was almost destroyed by Zapatietas, who were defeated by the federal troops in a battle which lasted for more than five hours near the ruined town. The Greek steamer Georgies, grain laden, was wrecked at the entrance of the Gironde Estuary, Rocheford, France, during a storm. Of the crew of twenty-two only seven were saved. Several bodies have been washed ashore. Two important towns, Kiu-Kiang and Sian, the later capital of Shensi, China, have fallen into the hands of the revolutionists, materially extending the area of uprising, disheartening the government and giving new confidence to revolutionists. Replying to what is described in Valpariso as the bellicose attitude of Peru, over the boundary dispute, Chile has repurchased the British battleships Triumph and Swiftture and the papers suggest that another vessel of the Dreadnought type be built in the United States. GENERAL. The government's fifth suit in its fight to break up the lumber trust was begun in the United States Court in St. Paul. Dr. Anna Howard Shaw of Moylan, Pa., president since 1905 of the National Woman's Suffrage Association, was reelected unanimously at Louisville, Ky. The statement of clearing house banks for the week in New York, shows that the banks hold $15,203,950 reserve in excess of legal requirements. The Southern Presbyterian Foreign Missions committee at Nashville, Tenn., has received a cablegram from S. I. Woodridge at Shanghai, China, saying all missionaries there are safe. The judiciary of the United States must be brought within the control and made answerable to the well thought out judgment of the people, is the opinion of Theodore Roosevelt, who spoke on "The Conservation of Womanhood and Childhood," before the Civic Forum in New York. The Employers' Liability and Workmen's Compensation Commission after a two days' executive session in Washington reached an agreement on the basis of legislation to be recommended to Congress and adjourned until Monday, November 6th, when the commission will meet to hear suggestions from persons interested in the proposed legislation. John R. Walsh, former banker, publisher and railroad owner, released on parole a week ago from the Leavenworth federal penitentiary, died in Chicago of heart disease. Mr. Walsh had been in bed most of the time since leaving Leavenworth October 15th. He had been attended constantly by physicians. Intermittent reports of his failing health during his incarceration had been denied at the penitentiary. It was plain on his release that he had aged and he gave up plans for a resumption of his position as a financial leader and took to his bed. Mr. Walsh was 74 years old. The Wright brothers, Orville and Wilbur, inventors of the aeroplant, have perfected a discovery expected to add vastly to the safety of aviation. Orville Wright has decided to give the announcement of his invention to the world and to put the device into practical use for the first time. In brief Mr. Wright's statement was that he had perfected a device for the automatic controlling of glider and power-driver aeroplanes, to keep such machines at proper balance in the air. It is expected to relieve him of the work of balancing it in the air, enormously increasing the safety of the aviator and of the machine. Direct approval of the campaign for the sale of Red Cross seals has been given by the American Federation of labor, according to an announcement made by the National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis. At the last annual convention of the American Federation of Labor, resolution was adopted calling on all the members of the federation to either the sale as much as possible.

Both the government officials and the citizens generally are deeply grateful to the ‘American government for keeping be- fore them the program recommended by the late commissioners of the United States, looking to the rehabl- litation of Liberla as an independent government. Liberia needs all the help she can secure along the lines recommended by the American commission, but what it needs quite as much ts aid from philanthropic sources to help to establish a school system which shall serve to put within the reach of every child in Liberia at least primary and secondary education. A resume of educational conditions in Liberia may be of interest. Largely as a result of the pitiable condition of the Liberian finances, edu- cation within the republic {s in a de- plorable state. Owing to the fact that there has been for years a large floating debt, it is extremely difficult to ascertain with any degree of ac- curacy what have been the real cash receipts of the government in recent years, A certain part of this debt has been cancelled each year, but @ new debt often greater in amount has been created to take the place of that which has been cancelled. Liberian public finances is under the bondage of this debt. A business man with good credit may and does find a profit in keeping in debt when he is con- stantly increasing his means of pay: ment, But let his ventures become unprofitable, so that the debt grows faster than means of payment, and he soon finds himself engulfed. Finances in Pitiable Condition. >The case is rarer where a govern- ment can maintain a floating debt In- definitely, because its use of its re- sources 1s not as a rule profitable in the sense, of profit making. In rare cases does government expenditure re- sult in an enhancement of government receipts. In Liberla this floating debt is not contracted, as in the case of governments with _ well - ordered finances, by means of the issue of short-term obligations, but through advances in goods by the local merchants. It is needless to say that these goods are charged to the gov- ernment at exorbitant prices, and that as the floating debt increases and the prospect of payment becomes more remote, the prices increase. ‘This may seem to be wandering a long way from education, but the point which seems essential at the outset 1s a clear comprehension of the fact that debt charges, direct or indirect, ab- sorb a large proportion of the Liberian revenues, Estimating these nominal receipts of the last few years at $350, 000, it is quite safe to assume that not more than $250,000 is in reality available either in the form of cash or credit for the general purposes of the government. With a population variously esti: mated at 1,500,000 to 2,000,000, the problem of administering a govern- ment with no more than $250,000 a year is no easy task, however primi- tive the government may be. The maintenance of a framework of gov- ernment and the preservation of peace and order make formidable demands upon so meager a pittance. However high among the functions of govern- ment we may rate the care of public education, it 1s clear that it is not so imperious a demand upon the public purse as these fundamental conditions of any body politic. If, then, as in the case of Liberia, the public purse fs so shallow that these imperious demands almost drain its contents, it fs not to be wondered at that little is done for public education. Only $25,000 Appropriated Annually for Elementary Shcools. ‘Theoretically, the Liberians recog- nize the value of education and the duty of the state to provide it, Prac- tically, the state can offer so little and that little of so poor a quality that the people take only a half- hearted interest’ in it. ‘The annual appropriation bills carry $25,000 for public elementary schools, and a sub- sidy of $12,500 for Liberia college. Of this $25,000 for public schools very little is actually available, and very Uttle is spent. As a consequence, the few schools maintained are woe- fully deficient. ‘Teachers are wholly untrained. Of knowledge they have very little; of anything but the most haphazard and casual methods of im- parting it, nothing at all, Liberia college, like the denomina- tional colleges of Liberia, is primarily an elementary school, with a so-called college attachment. In its upper reaches it covers the ground of a high school in a very imperfect and ately tea RE RE Sen them, In the College of West Africa, maintained by the Methodisis in Mon- rovia, under Bishop I. B, Scott, the main work 18 that of the elementary school. Last year there were only three college students, The equipment is primitive, but the teachers are capable, They are all of them from the United States and appear to have had the experience and training which fit them for their work. It seems that similar conditions prevail in the Epis copal institutions. Groundwork of Education Is the Com- mon School. I have dwelt upon the pitiful aspect of primary education in Liberia be- cause I believe that whatever forms education may assume, its groundwork 18 the common school, and that no professional, technical or industrial education can prosper except upon such a foundation, Moreover, I have avoided the common criticism of Li- berian education, that time and money is wasted in Liberia college upon Latin and Greek to the neglect of other things far more important to citlzens of Africa, This I do because Liberia college is not a college at all, but merely a large graded school. The time of its professors and the money expended upon it is concerned almost exclusively in the teaching of the common English branches. ‘The foregoing has, I presume, made it clear that any institution which may be created in Liberla for any grade of higher education must, in the present deplorable condition of the elementary schools, maintain its own feeders. It must take the children at the earliest stages and give them such preliminary training as wouid fit them for any special instruction that may be contemplated. In time, the burden upon the institution of supply- ing elementary education might be removed if one feature of the institu: tion itself were a normal department. A normal department furnishing trained teachers to the common ‘schools might so enhance the value jot. the. education given in those schools that any institution of higher rank would thereafter not be obliged to rely altogether upon its own pre- ‘paratory school, and might eventually abandon such a school and devote itself to the special ends for which it was created. Country Overrun by Clergymen. So far as there has been any out- look towards the higher education, there has been a distinct leaning to- hwards the learned professions of the par and the ministry and thus indi- rectly for the public service. In Li- peria the profession of the ministry, so far from being a bar to public serv- ice, seems to be a direct preparation for it. At a recent church service, a portion of the Scriptures was read by the sheriff of the county, prayer was offered by the postmaster general, the serinon was preached by an associate justice of the supreme court, and the benediction was pronounced by a mem- ber of the senate, The country is in fact overrun by clergymen, of whom but a small portion devote themselves to thelr profession. ‘The great and crying need of the country is in technical education and in preparation for a more progressive agricultural and industrial occupation. ‘There {s, moreover, among the older generation a growing feeling that they have too long neglected the industrial opportunities of the country, and their speakers dwell with insistence upon the need of better farming and the need of productive occupation, It is enccuraging that one of the fostmost exponents of this doctrine, D. ©. How- ard, now secretary of the treasury, is the’ president-elect, so that we can count upon the influence of the future administration being directed as far as it can towards promoting the eco- nomic and industrial development of the country. The establishment at this time of an institution in Liberia, based on the lines of the Tuskegee in- stitute, located in Alabama, U. S. A.. would be one of the greatest blessings that could be conferred upon this country. Such an institution should have two quite distinct aims or de- partments. ‘The first should be a normal department, for the need of which the foregoing statements offer conclu- sive demonstration, ‘This normal de- partment is a necessary adjunct to the main purpose of such an estab- lishment, in order that in time the general system of public education ‘may be Improved and the institution relieved of the necessity of giving ele- ‘mentary instruction and therefore put- ting it in a position to do a larger work along industrial lines. About Industrial Education. With regard to Industrial education, ti a country like Liberia, which is al- most wholly agricultural, it is a mat- ter of course that any industrial education should be based largely upon agriculture. It should, however, | im those handicratts for which then is the greatest need in that country. ‘These are, primarily everything con- nected with the construction of dwell- ings, both as to carpentry and as to masonry, In the towns @ large part of the buildings are constructed of brick, stone or cement, and this form of construction is that which is best adapted to the tropics. The brick used is mostly imported, though at the present time a great deal is derived from older buildings which have fallen into decay and which have broken up. Brick making would also be a profit: able industry. Special attention should be given to all kinds of cement work for the pur- poses of construction of houses, cls- terns and all kinds of drainage. Sant- tary arrangements do not exist in the country and in the city are woefully primitive. A proper application of cement construction to these necess!: tles would not only contribute to the health of the community, but would be valuable in establishing higher standards of decency and living. Room in Liberia for Trained Mechanics. ‘The center of the Americo-Liberian number of trained mechanics. The application of the gasoline motor to navigation of the St. Paul's river and in machine shops is increasing, and for the present it would seem that ele- mentary knowledge of the principles and applications of mechanics and the care of machinery might well be made a subject of instruction. | There has so far been little con- scious effort to utilize native products ‘to the best advantages. The teachers ‘of an agricultural school could tender ‘an enormous service to the country by ‘the study of its natural resources, by ‘the cultivation by way of experiment and demonstration of the crops of the country, such as the coffee plant and possi the sugar cane, and by intro- ducing improved methods for the col- lection, presérvation and shipment of such natural products as palm oil and kernels, plassava fiber and rubber. If sich an Institution were designed for both sexes, the industrial training of the girls would naturally follow the sate lines as have been developed by the educational experts of the United States. ‘The center of the America-Liberian population is Monrovia, and such a school as 1s needed should be located in or near this place. There is plenty of good agricultural land easily ac- ceasibie to Monrovia, while the prox- fmity to the town would in the first instance be an important factor in reducing the cost of the necessary supplies which, until the school 1s well established, must be largely pur- chased. New Era Dawning for Republic. No gift of the American people to the republic of Liberla could be more valuable for development of the country than such an institution, As ‘amiexample of a wholly disinterested concern in the welfare of the republic, the gift would be most highly ap- preciated. The people of Liberia be- Heve that a new era is dawning. They have placed themselves under the guidance of the United States of ‘America, and they are looking forward to the advent of their advisers as the beginning of changed conditions. While these changes encounter the natural inertia which opposes any new move- ment, the present and future adminis- trations of the country are in hearty accord with these changes. No more fitting time than the present could be imagined in which to establish such fa school, which would be regarded by the Liberian people as conclusive evi- ‘dence that the interest the American ‘government has taken in their welfare is as unselfish as those who have been concerned in this policy believe. Of course, the Europeans in Liberia cannot understand that the United States has no ulterior motive, and that il is actuated solely by considerations of sympathy and friendly feeling. Such an educational inst{tution as has been discussed would in a large measure counteract this influence of the for- eigners now located in the country. EVADES TEXAS JIM CROW LAW BY CHARTERING A PULLMAN SLEEPER. Denison, Tex.—When Dr. Booker. Washington was inforined by the Mis: souri, Kansas & Texas railway that he must either ride in the compart ment reserved for negroes or hire a special car to transport him from Aus- tin to Temple, Doctor Washington de- murred. But the Texas Jim Crow law is firmly enforced and the railroad of; ficials could not afford to be accom modating. Doctor Washington later notified the railroad passenger agent that he wanted a sleeper anyhow and char tered a special Pullman for the trip, which took place September 30. The distance from Austin to Temple is about 200 miles. LEAVES SMALL FORTUNE. New York City.—Hannah Mills, eighty years old, a_ colored widow woman without family, who lived in New York for more than fifty years, died a few days ago, leaving the sav- ings of a Hfetime which will go to her next of kin, if any can be found. Where Hannah Mills was born or her maiden name, unfortunately, is not known, but some years ago she spoke to a friend about a sister who lived up state having died. It is thought that this sister may have left children who would be Hannah Mills’ heirs.

SPORT is play; business is work. As a fundamental necessity in the affairs of life, work comes befcre play. Play is the recreative aftermath of work; a relaxation which brings rest and renewed vigor. But sport is system- atized play, which, while affording the people general opportunity for recrea- tion, is largely commercialized and given an absorbing feature of excitement. But sport is not business, except for those commercially interested. In any form it is finally, for the people in general, just a foil for work; a relaxa- tion from strenuous and necessary endeavor. ‘The white American is a great patron of and believer in sport, but it is but an incidental item compared with the volume of his business. He indulges his taste for sport only after his well established business warrants relaxation and rest. In general desire and character of indulgence, the colored American is just as big a sport as his better fortified white brother. He don’t have to be grounded and engrossed in business to such an extent that recreative pleas: ure is a necessity. He ioves sport for the play and for the sake of the abandonment of work. He neglects labor and its ardent and necessary advancement for the sake of sport. Our quota of sportsmen is entirely too large when compared with our quota of business men. ‘There is no branch of ordinary sport in which the colored man is not fully developed, but there are many branches of business to which he has not turned a mastering hand. In racing, boxing base ball, foot ball and all the alluring games of chance and dexterity, we can measure arms with the white man, when he will let us do so, and when he will not let us do so, we are nevertheless ardent supporters of the white man’s sports and games. ‘Phere seems to be an unrestrained measure of sporting blood in the veins of many of our best leaders and admirers. The easy course we are adopting needs positive restraint and strong reversal. We have too large interest in sport and too small interest in legitimate business fundamentals, out of which the love of sport should grow. THE SLEEP OF NATIONS. NATIONS have their changing attributes of life, with all their relative phenomena, the same as men, They are born, they have their day of activ- ity, their night of sleep and finally their death. Their lives are of different durations. Some do not live out their day, while others see their sun set, retire to a long sleep and then awake to another day. Not many thus sur- yive the night, but lethargy means death to all but those of most wonderful virility. Some nations prolong their day by strenuous regulation of their tasks of life and the imtuitive administration of recuperative potions, such ‘as the crossing of widely separated branches and the injection of new and virile blood, but night, with its sleep or death, is only delayed and is inevit- able, Nations that sleep and awake are the wonder nations of the earth. The world was made for them, and time awaits the development of their miraculous powers. In the present stage of the world’s enlightenment, the European and American nations, all related members of the Aryan race, in different stages of development, seem to be enjoying the brightest days of national life ever known to men; but strange signs are developing in other quarters of the earth. Nations that have long been asleep are manifesting life and wakeful- ness. ‘The most wonderful and portentious revival of all seems about to take place in China. Here is a nation which, for centuries, has been regarded as the most tardy and backward of all the civilized or near civilized nations of earth. In fact the “heathén Chinee” 13 proverbial. With a vast territory and many | millions of population, its glory was sunk in a vague and inscrutable past whose greatness was reflected only in the relics of ancient philosophies. The modern nations of earth have long had designs upon its dismemberment, but conflicting aspirations and violent and dangerous jealousies on their part have made its partitioning impossible. Its own form of Imperial government, with its antiquated customs and otherwise obsolete laws and edicts, was the opiate which deadened this sleeping giant. At times there have been weak and spasmodic but vain struggles against this self-strangling power. But in late years, forced contact with modern nations has wafted in dreams of enlightenment, and the process of awakening has been going on. Now comes the news of a great revolution, capably planned and directed, adequately financed and with millions of adherents, the prime objects of which are the overthrow of the Imperial government and the establishment of a republic. A great civil struggle is shaking the Empire, and whatever the outcome shall be, it must result in the rapid modernization and rejuvenation of China. It will bring suddenly into the politics of the world another new, mighty and uncounted factor. While modern statesmen may have regarded its coming as possible, it was confidently considered a matter of remote liability, And now it is almost upon us. ‘The despised Chinaman, as we know him, will soon have at his back a country and a national power, which, under modern influences, can rapidly overtake and come astride of us, if it does not sur- pass us. Its people have the inherent qualifications for such a development and the manifested capacity for indefinite survival against every possible shock. Under such an unexpected form of compulsion, the existing ethics of nations will need to be radically revised. Tho respect compelled by the prowess of Japan may well foreshadow an awe of China. : ‘And as this sleeping nations continues to rub its eyes to the fulness of its second day, we may well begin to conjecture what the future holds for Africa, another sleeping giant, against whose final and inevitable awak- ening, all the sleep potions and other machinations of striving and arrogant Christendom cannot avail. Work Alone T MAY SEEM somewhat paradoxical to say that a girl may 4 take too much interest in her work, but it is nevertheless true. Of course, there is the class of girl (and she might be y a called almost typical she is so numerous) who is merely poised, ERASE so to speak, on her position temporarily, waiting until she Gag f) shall flutter away to a husband and a home, but there is also 8 Yee ff the girl who becomes so wrapped up in her work that only a on the rarest occasion can she take a peep beyond the narrow horizon that bounds it. She works early and late until she is practically a nervous wreck, and is imposed upon quite as a matter of course. Of course, it is a truism that she who wishes to succeed must put her whole heart into her work. This is self-evident. But there is a sane and safe level between neglecting one’s work and living for that and nothing else. The good worker should also be the good player, and above all she should learn to drop her work when she leaves the office or schoolroom or workshop, and learn to take an interest in something outside her own little base of operations. People quickly get the habit of avoiding as if she were a pestilence the girl who is constantly quoting the “boss” or bragging of the quantity or quality of the work she does, ‘The amusing things that happen at the office are legitimate subjects for conversation, and will be welcomed when recounted at home or at the boarding house, but the purely busincess details contain as a rule not the lenat elimmering of interest faethe outsider: This kind of girl becomes rather a nuisance to the “boss” himself in time, for she is always ready to take offense at anything which she considers a slight. Many girls undergo real suffering by having cer- tain work they were in the habit of doing given to some one else, when it should have been regarded as a relief and a kindness done to them. ‘The girls who can think of nothing but clothes, and who will suddenly break into any conversation with some irrelevant femark as to tucks or gathers or box plaiis, and demand that you shall give your opin- ion regarding the same, is pretty bad, worse, perhaps, than the girl who thinks too much of her work, but the latter is nevertheless bad enough. old-fashioned home, while today she presides over a modern flat of six rooms.

"The Disappointed Bride," a drama, was staged at Shorter's chapel Thursday night by local talent under the management of Mrs. A. M. Ward. The participants acquitted themselves in a very creditable manner. There was a large and appreciative audience present. There is a great deal of latent talent here which only needs cultivation. The Silver Leaf Social club was perfectly entertained at the cosy residence of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Settles. Important business was first disposed of. Following this came the introduction of innocent games, mucu to the delight of the guests. As a fitting climax was the seating of the guests around a large loaded table, where their appetites were conciliated by an extravagant variety of palatable dishes. The club will be entertained by Mr. White this week. The residents of Five Points enjoyed quite a treat last week through the kindness of Engine Co. No. 3 in permitting Battling Thomas and Black Prince to use their training quarters. Battling Thomas fought Roy Brown at the El Jebel Temple Wednesday evening. Black Prince, who trained with him, is a much-touted fighter, out of the famous Al Kauman's quarters, and judging from his leads, blocks, shifts, agility, etc., he knows something and is destined to rock many to sleep when he gets on. For some time past there has been no little amount of trouble among the clergy of Denver and elsewhere, both of the black and white congregations, and the gossip that is going the rounds about some of our preachers is not fit for publication.

The hit of the evening was a solo sung by a young Mr. Dancy, recently from Texas. As a mark of appreciation for his good singing, he was not only encored several times, but coins of a sizable denomination were rained on the stage by members of the audience. NOTICE. There will be a meeting of the stockholders of The Mutual Laundry Company, held at the laundry office, 2540 Washington street, October 31, 1911, at 8 o'clock p. m., for the purpose of hearing a report of the directors on the progress of the laundry business and to discuss such other matters of interest as may be presented.

NOTES OF THE PEOPLE'S PRES- BYTERIAN CHURCH. Sermon topics, Sunday, Oct. 29th: 11 a. m., "The Function of the Church." 7 p. m., Y. P. C. E. "A Missionary Journey Around the World," Acts 16: 6-15. 7:30 p. m., "Yea, Yea; Nay, Nay," or "A Man's Word His Bond." Both sermons tomorrow will form a double-header. The 11 o'clock discourse will lay bare the attitude that the church through its pulpit should assume on all issues pertaining to the church and state. It will be a further and special appeal for the display of manhood by the men of the city. Every man who can conveniently hear it should attend, bringing with him his fellow man. The evening discourse is destined to tighten up the apparently lost screw of some people in wilfully lying when they give their word. The public is cordially invited to worship with us. Dr. J. C. Stone of Kentucky will address the C. P. As will be observed elsewhere, under the auspices of the Sunday Alliance, the pastor will deliver the first of his series of lectures at the Congress of Races next Tuesday night at 8 o'clock at the People's church. The Azalla Hackley club will furnish the music. The series are as follows: "First Things First." "Hard Facts Darker People Should Know." "How the World's Congress May Help the Race." "The Future Attitude of Afro-Americans to Congress." One of the most enjoyable functions of the social calendar of last week was an elaborate dinner given Thursday evening by Mrs. Annie Batiste of 1572 Race street, in honor of Mme. Anna Patti Brown of Chicago, who, by the way, is one of the leading vocalists on the race. The parlors were tastefully decorated with abundance of flowers, as was also the table which groaned under a sumptuous menu which was highly relished by all present. As an entertainer of superb ability, Mrs. Batiste was warmly congratulated as such by her guests. To say the least, it was indeed an evening of bliss. SCOTT M. E. CHURCH, Twenty-sixth and Clarkson Streets. The Sunday topics will be "Justification" and "The Proving of Abraham." The Sunday morning services were very interesting. One earnest man was reclaimed and added to the church. The citizens of Denver owe a great man of the race like Dr. Mason a grand reception. We invite all enterprising, liberty loving and progressive people to make this appearance a worthy one. The good people of Denver have never failed to respond to accord our representative men the proper reception. The Ladies' Aid society has purchased a $60.00 range to prepare that delicious Thanksgiving dinner upon.

The members of the choir are urged to be present Saturday evening to rehearse for Dr. Mason's lecture. A chorus of 20 voices will sing on this occasion. Mrs. Ella Carter, who has been very ill, is about again. Mr. Lovet Clopton is able to be out again. Mrs. Jennette Bailey is on the sick list. The Junior League met last Sunday afternoon.

THE REMEDY FOR POVERTY Intelligence, a Purpose in Life and a Responsibility Are Strong Factors. A speaker at the Fifth Avenue Baptist Church Bible class, New York, is quoted as saying at a recent meeting of the class that "the remedy for poverty lies in education, postal savings banks and building and loan associations," in which remark there is a great deal of truth. There are three things that operate against poverty, and they are intelligence, a purpose in life and a responsibility; and these three things are furnished by the remedies suggested by the speaker. In all these suggestions it will be noticed that the saving spirit is most manifest. There is no progress that does not involve some form of self-denial; some plan that makes a man feel stronger today than he was yesterday. That is what the postal bank and the building and loan association is supposed to do, and very often does do. A man or woman must have some ambition to get along; something that he does for himself and leaves a balance; some point ahead to gain. That is the remedy for poverty. It is no dependence, or charity or gifts, but the planning to patronize the postal or savings bank or the building and loan.—Ohio State Journal. Caddies Rise in Revolt. The golf caddie has risen in revolt at last, and the golfer's pet privilege is thereby seriously endangered. Hitherto the player has considered the links an excellent place for giving vent to his feelings. And, lastly, when one grew tired of anathematising clubs, play, the ball alike, there always remained the caddie! But now the caddies of Bray, Ireland, mean to put an end to this state of affairs. A strike was proclaimed, and an indignation meeting held around the first hole. Finally, amid many things, it was decided to complain of and protest against the strong language that was used to them and in their presence, and which they were forced to swallow and endure in silence and humiliation! Weed Makes Food for Wonder. Interesting operations have recently taken place on the Haining Loch in Scotland. For well nigh a century now this loch has been frequented by a microscopic floating water weed which in the summer time causes great discoloration of the water, turning it into a muddy brownish color. In winter the loch regains its natural color, the weed sinking to the bottom. The plant belongs to the great division of freshwater algae. Recently there was dissolved in the loch over half a ton of sulphate of copper, and according to all appearance, the weed has been killed. It is interesting to note that in no other loch in the British Isles is this plant to be found. A Nautical Start. "I wish we could have a sailor at the head of our educational scheme." "Why so?" "Because he could appreciate the use of a spanker boom." Wriggling of Horse Hair in Water. Any motion a horse hair may have when put into water is caused by its power to absorb water and to bend or twist as the water causes the hair to swell on one side more than on another. This will take place in the air. If you hang a long hair by one end and tie to the lower end a light rod of wood or a piece of straw perhaps six inches long, you will find that it will twist back and forth from day to day. ```markdown ``` FURS = FURS We are the only real manufacturing furriers in Denver The Youman Fur Co. 422 Fifteenth Street.

Colo AFRO-AMERICAN CULLINGS Reading ought to be called one of the fine arts, as indeed it is. It furnishes the opportunity of taking in the thoughts of great authors and the ability to impart these thoughts to others. A prominent educator has given this brief definition: "Reading is getting through." But it is more than this, it is the bringing out the thought and feeling of the author in such a manner as to make the hearers see and feel with the reader. The reader who falls short of this end has not read. When Ezra read the law to the people they wept because the reading was effective. We too frequently listen to poor pulpit reading. For such reading there is no excuse. Every minister ought to study his Bible so thoroughly, especially the chapters he is going to read on any given occasion, that his hearers are made to feel that he is fully possessed of the thoughts contained in the passages he is reading. While the Scriptures are being read God is talking to the people. A minister should therefore be prepared to read well, and not get up to blunder over the Scriptures. Word-calling is not reading. To read well one must be effective. He must make his hearers feel what he is reading. Our church services often fall at the beginning on account of ineffective reading by the pastor. The Bible is poorly read; the hymns are poorly read. If the hymns be well selected they are read in such a way that the people cannot see the connection between the hymns and the subject of the sermon. How readest thou, Brother Minister? Be careful as to your manner of reading, for much of your success as a preacher will depend on your good reading.—Southern Ploughman. One of the greatest tragedies of human slavery was the breaking up of family ties, especially the selling of children away from their mothers. Was this tragedy ended in the United States when Abramam Lincoln signed the proclamation of emancipation? Frederick E. Bauer, superintendent of the children's bureau of the department of public charities, is authority for the statement that between 3,000 and 4,000 children are taken from their parents every year in New York city because the rising cost of living submerges the family, making it impossible for their parents to support them. They are cared for by charitable institutions, and a beautiful charity it is. But so far as the sentiment of parental and filial love is concerned, does it make so very much difference whether the family is broken at the auction block or at the empty breakfast table? Broken families mean broken hearts as much now as in the days "befoah de war."—Toledo News-Bee. The Religious Forward movement, a brand new thing, with plenty of big money and sentiment behind it, has begun to move. The purpose is to carry the Gospel to those in the highways and by-ways of the large cities who are not now reached by religious influences. We were once, in 1903, surprised to see a Salvation Army band marching down a side street in Yokahoma, Japan, playing "Shall We Gather at the River?" While all sorts of movements are organized or being organized, to reach and help better the moral condition of every nationality in the republic, very little is done to reach and help better the morals of the negro. He is left alone, to work out his salvation in his own way. His churches must broaden out their work. The negro needs his own Christian Temperance unions, rescue missions and homes, settlement works, Young Men's and Young Women's Christian associations, Salvation Armies and the like—New York Age. If it can be successfully snown that Meroe is the real birthplace of Egyptian civilization the negro's part in it is settled. All of the traditions relating to this ancient city connect the same with the indubitably negro Numidians. All the centuries of conquest and pillage have not succeeded in changing to any perceptible degree the race affiliation of its inhabitants. They have always been a hearty, warlike race of men and are so today. It is known and admitted that Egyptian civilization was introduced to Greece and became the nucleus around which modern civilization has grown. When the world grows older it is possible that negro scholars will establish this fact beyond doubt and thus place the negro race at the source of the stream of civilization from the ever flowing banks of which he is supposed to be slaking his thirst for the first time. Some Afro-American pastors would lose their jobs as hod-carriers if they neglected it as they do paying their subscriptions to their race papers. If you discontinue it then they howl, and if you continue to mall it then they say I thought you would have discontinued it when the time had expired. If you write them you get an answer as quick as if your had written to the moon or the sun. Surely Afro-American editors find Jordan a hard road to travel—Caddiz (Ky). Informer. The tenant farmers are planning to have a convention at an early date and to perfect an organization for mutual protection. One writer pictures the condition of the white tenant farmer as being rather hopeless and his prospects as discouraging. Statistics show that the number of these farmers is steadily on the increase, and their chances for ever owning any land are rapidly disappearing. Owing to a different and a lower standard of living the negro tenant farmer makes good both for himself and landlord where the white tenant finds it difficult to exist. This different standard of living is an important factor in our favor, and it is enabling the negro to "get by" in countless instances. The most striking illustration of this point came to our notice recently. Mr. F—is a worker in concrete and makes $2.50 a day. By his side a white man does the same sort of work and gets $2.50 a day. The colored man pays $6 per month house rent and the white man pays $15. The colored man's family does its own washing—and that of the white man's family also! Say what you please we still have a fighting chance if we will only make use of it. Our chief danger and temptation is in trying to lead an aeroplane existence on a subway salary—Dallas Express. Up until a few years ago the negro was thought to be the chief among sinners in the use of English. His frequent disregard for grammar, and his quaint expressions make negro dialect one of the most picturesque in this country. But another dialect is being developed by the Dagos which, for downright outlandishness, puts that of the negro in the background. A Dago had ordered a windmill and had received it, but he had spent several days trying to find a certain valve. Finally he found it, but the handle was missing. And then he wrote the following letter to the freight agent: "Messter Fratenanns, Dere Frend: I gotta the valv which I by from S. Nalrite but why for godsake doan you sen me no handle. I Loose to me my customer shure ting. You doan trete me mite is my money not so good as other fellows. I wate 10 daze and my Customer holler for watter liga hel by the valve. the wind he no blow the meel and the valve gotta no handle an wat the hel I goin do, you no send handle pretty quick I goin soo you goodby your frend, Antonio Dutramino. "After i rite thees letter I fine blame handle in box plese excuse me." In a recent editorial convention a minister was present and offered the following toast: "To save an editor from starvation take his paper and pay for it promptly; to save him from despair, send him every item you can get hold of; to save him from bankruptcy, advertise in his paper liberally; to save him from profanity, write your correspondence plainly on one side of the sheet and send it in as soon as possible; to save him from mistakes, bury him. Dead people are the only ones who never make mistakes." Equally pertinent is the toast on "Girls," written by a modern verse maker, and which is as follows: "A health to the girl that can dance like a dream, And the girl that can pound the piano; A health to the girl that writes verse by the ream Or toys with high C in soprano; To the girl that can talk, and the girl that does not; To the saint and the sweet little sinner— But here's to the cleverest girl of the lot, The girl that can cook a good dinner!" The editor enjoyed his first automobile riding experience on the evening of the 30th ult., when as one of a party composed of Messrs. G. W. Lamastus, Mose Thomas and Messrs. Waldauer and Walker, prominent white gentlemen of Mertigold, and R. M. McCarty of this town, a quick run was made from Mound Bayou to McCarty's and return. The experience was a somewhat novel one for us as it will be, doubtless for any one who rides in one of these cars for the first time. They told us that we were not going fast but at times it seemed to us that we must have been "scoring" or else we are satisfied that we would not enjoy the scorching experience.—Mound Bayou Demonstrator. Will Jack Johnson and Sam Langford come together in Madison Square garden at New York, after all, and settle the vexed question as to which of them is the greater master of Fistlcana? The sporty hope and talk are all that way. Johnson and Langford and Jeannette occupy more space in the daily newspapers and more of the public attention than all of the other 9,999,997 negroes in the United States. When they speak with their fists or tongues they have the world for audience. Fame is a fickle jade, in one age favoring brains, in another brawn—brute force.

Of the large number of wells sunk water was encountered in all of them, and none was over ninety-five feet deep. The average depth was sixty-five feet.

Shafroth Appoints Colorado Representatives. Denver.—Governor Shafroth expressed himself so much in favor of an investigation into recent national laws regarding money, and particularly one restricting the coinage of gold, that he took cognizance of a resolution passed by the Direct Legislation League and issued the following executive order: "Whereas, I am in receipt of a resolution passed by the Direct Legislation League requesting me to appoint a commission to examine into the acts of Congress relating to the coinage of money and the issuance of currency of the United States, and, "Whereas, I deem the subject they are to consider of the utmost importance to the people of the state of Colorado— "Now therefore, I, John Shafroth, as governor of the state of Colorado, do hereby appoint the following named persons, to-wit: "John Brisben Walker of Denver; Frank E. Moody, Monte Vista; Frank J. Cannon, Denver; Moses Hallett, Denver; Edward P. Costigan, Denver; John H. Gabriel, Denver; John C. Bell, Montrose, to serve as members of said commission. "Given under my hand and executive seal this day, October 21, 1911." On March 1, 1911, Congress passed a law authorizing the secretary of the treasury to accept foreign gold coin and issue therefor gold certificates. It also authorized the secretary to accept bullion and pay for it in gold certificates but provided that he should not accept bullion in excess of one-third of the gold certificates issued. The result of this action is practically to limit the coinage of gold and it is considered by many to be as revolutionary in its workings as was the suspension of the free coinage of silver. Political and economic organizations all over the country have protested against this law and several others passed by Congress, and it has been decided to hold a meeting in Denver and the delegates named in the executive order will represent Colorado at this conference.
