PATRONIZE MERCHANTS WHO ADV. IN THE PEOPLE'S PAPER THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RAGE COUNTRY PARTY Colored Mayor Of Battersea VOL. XX. A short time ago the Negro press of America had many good and complimentary things to say of J. R. Archer because of his election as Mayor of the borough of Aattersea, an English municipality. It was felt on this side that his election was an exposition of the Negro's standing in that foreign country. We were glad enough to contribute our mite to the flow of praise but with a sense of reservation. It was something, in that he was elected to a position that stood out, it had to be admitted. Knowing the general social situation we were fearful, not of what has happened, but of some mistake, a hoax, or something that would mean nothing in the end. In time our doubt gave away to admiration, thinking of the supposed fine civil and political spirit of a community that chose a Negro as its head, to administer its affairs. In the language of Cyrano De Bergerac, it was all too good to be true. "All that glitters is not gold." The startling information comes that the Negro mayor is being "systematically" harrassed by the white people of the borough. He has complained to the borough council, and which complaint is set forth in the publications of that community. A clipping from one of these publications had this "After patient toleration of numberless jibes and taunts because of his colour, Battersea's mayor, Mr. J. A. Archer, has at last disclosed to the Borough Council the distressing position in which he finds himself. During the short time he had been mayor, he said, in addressing the council, he had been made to suffer very considerably, apparently because he was a man of color. He had been assailed with the foulest inuendoes, and he had forwarded to him some of the most disgraceful letters and postcards it was possible to imagine. Within the past few weeks he had received at the Town Hall a letter casting the foulest aspersions upon his mother for being the parent of a black mayor of Battersea. Another letter was of so scuarilous a character that he was seriously considering whether he should not take legal action with regard to it. His position had been rendered almost intolerable by reason of these letters and by the action of certain members of the council who objected to a man of colour being Mayor. Born at Liverpool, Mr. Archer is the son of an Irish woman and a native of the West Indies." So after all it turns out that the white people of Battersea were not in love with Mr. Archer, although some of them saw fit to choose him as the head of the municipal government. Our fear for the fate of the Negro Mayor was not without some foundation. He suffered from a new direction. Our own country with all of its advertised and real meanness has not gone the way of this English borough. Had he been elected in America by a white constituency he would have been respected. Even in the South where Negro opposition is at its worst, when men are appointed to office they are respected. Not until the time comes for a possible change owing to change of administration do we find white citizens opposing them. When the terms of Negro office holders are expiring every source of pressure is exhausted to have them go. But while in office they enjoy the respect and consideration of all men. So Mr. John Bull, who thought to teach the Americans how to emancipate the Negro, and in the meanwhile, mind you, secretly abetted the South, has exhibited a bit of malignity, of which, it was not thought capable. The municipality of Battersea has tossed Mr. Archer, mayor, high up in the air, as a sportsman does his clay pigeons, in order to get a first rate crack at him. We long since have been suspicious of that country's fairness. Many years ago, perhaps thirty, the London Illustrated Times had the observation of an Englishman. He said in effect that in America all men were "free" except about four million blacks. These were limited in various ways. However, if the conditions were the same here as there, if we found black men jostling English workmen out of their jobs, we would have the same social relation. The impression of that observation was most profound. It was in that impressionable period of life when men hate best and love best. Our own county was being bitterly assailed by the Negroes, by us, and with that zeal common to all youth at oppression, of its kind at any rate, because of the treatment of the Negro. Lynching had just begun, a thing we got very much used to in time. But at the beginning the news of a lynching was the signal of assembling of Negroes in every Northern city where they were in considerable numbers. They did nothing but State Hist & Nat Hist Section State House ANTS WHO ADO THE JOURNAL DENVER COLORADO resolve but it was their most—their only means of protest. We, in our deep distress, as we viewed it, turned to England, the land of Wilberforce, very much as the earth-wearied think of heaven, a possible haven, even if never attained. We cited England to shame our own. All, of course, did not read the "Illustrated Times," consequently the thought still obtained that England was for the Negro race. But slowly it becomes known that the observer in that publication was a prophet. He was even more than a prophet if it were possible. He had it that the industrial situation influenced by Negro workmen would be the cue for the English denouement. Negro workmen have not caused it, nor the thought of them. It makes for a condition fairly unthinkable—but it is a stern reality. Perhaps it is not the proper thing to judge the island by Battersea. We have more than Battersea. We have watched the pendulum swing as it concerned the coming of the prize fighter Johnson. It accelerated. John Bull grew red in the face and talked of its South African provinces. And we, in a measure, agreed with him. But we can not take on this Battersea business without show of feeling. Only a few Negroes are in that borough, perhaps not a half dozen; perhaps Archer's family only. And yet we have this demonstration. It is plain that we have something to be thankful in that our home is in blessed old America.—The Freeman. PRESS LETTER COLORADO BUSINESS MEN'S HOME RULE LEAGUE Fighting Prohibition In Virginia Two thousand citizens of Richmond, embracing its foremost men in commerce and in professions assembled in the Academy of Music one night last week, adopted as their own a platform formulated by the Virginia Association for Local Self-government, declaring the Associations' allegiance to the principle of Local Self government enunciated by Jefferson and re-affirmed by President Wilson, and its hostility to State-Wide Prohibition, which threatens to nullify that principle. In many respects the mass meeting was the most remarkable ever held in the city. On the stage, vice-presidents and sponsors for the giant gathering, sat one hundred citizens of Richmond who have attained high standing in the city's life, and crowding the Academy of Music from the ground floor tothe topmost gallery was an assembly of citizens representing practically every art and industry that in aggregate make up the ```markdown ``` sum of Richmond's assets. The meeting marked the beginning of a conflict that according to one of the speakers of the evening will shake the state from end to end and cause untold bitterness and recrimination before its final adjustment. Grocers Oppose Agitation By a vote of more than two to one the National Retail Grocers Association at its annual meeting in Louisville, Kentucky, May 21, adopted a strong Anti-Prohibition resolution. The vote came after a fight lasting more than an hour. the most bitter of any during the four days meeting and one that proved the feature of the final session. Citizens Of Cincinnati Protest A spectacular protest against prohibition agitation was staged in Cincinnati last Friday night when ten thousand members of various industrial and social organizations of the city marched to Music Hall to hear facts concerning the "dry" movement by representative speakers. At 7:00 o'clock aerial bombs were exploded in every district as the signal of the beginning of the most colossal demonstration against prohibition in the history of the city. Weeks had been devoted to planning details of the affair, thousands of buttons and flags were distributed and emblematic banners with appropriate legends were borne by thousands of marchers. An Awakening In Turkey A dispatch from Constantinople: "With a view of raising the moral standard of the Turkish people and to break the opium habit the Government has decided to break from that part of the Mohammedan faith which demands prohibition of the manufacture and consumption of alcoholic beverages, and to induce several Austrian and German brewers to establish plants in the Ottoman empire is offering valuable consesions." Turkey at the present time is the only prohibition country in the world and probably the poorest, while its people are a race of drug and cigarette fiends. What Reform Next? Those of the American citizens who delighted in Roosevelt's vigorous denunciation of "mollycoddes" should glance about them and notice "whither we are drifting" in the current induced by Prohibition agitation. The agitators have declared war not only upon the open saloon but upon the private "snack" at home or in the retired precincts of the social club Reports from various meetings justify the prediction that the next step will be RACE NEWS Baltimore, Md., May 20.—The will of Mrs. William M. Elliott filed for probate May 20, provided a fund of $150,000 for the creation of a corporation to educate Negroes in this state. Paris, May 16.—The suit for $10,000 damages brought by W. H. Galvin, a prize fight manager, against "Jack" Johnson was settled outside of court today. Johnson's wife complained that Galvin had insulted her in front of the restaurant Au Filet de Seul on February 24. Johnson attacked Galvin, striking him on the jaw with his fist, dislocating it. colored voters in the county.

Reginald Smith of Chicago, Ill., is at the Royal Eye Hospital, where there are 500 patients daily. He is doing special nose and throat work with such skill that he has attracted the attention of several English professors. He has matriculated at this hospital for six months and will take up other work before returning to the States. This is the longest time that an Afro-American from the States has paid for hospital matriculation. Charleston, W. Va., May 19. For the first time a colored man was placed on a Kanawha county ticket when C. H. James was selected by the Progressive party in convention here today as one of its five candidates for the lower house of the legislature, being third in a field of seven. Mr. James, who is a wholesale produce and commission merchant, came into political prominence two years ago when as one of the two colored delegates from this state to the Progressive national convention, he was referred to at some length by Col. Roosevelt in a speech before that body. There are 2,500 against the use of tobacco. Already certain religious publications have seriously asserted that no man is leading a Christian life who uses either liquor or tobacco. NO 40 colored voters in the county.

Sessions of the professional men are already begun, having opened this morning at 9 o'clock, and tonight the opening session will be held at the Beulah Baptist church. The welcome to the city, musical programs and other features will mark the opening meetings. Columbus, May 17.—Within 24 hours after having been granted a pardon by the governor, Robert Garnes colored, who had served a 33 year sentence in the Ohio penitentiary, died of tuberculosis in a hospital here today. Garnes was removed to the hospital soon after the pardon was granted. He was received at the penitentiary May 3, 1881, to serve a life sentence for murder, having been convicted of killing three members of a family by the name of Scott in Union county. Jealousy over a girl is said to have been the cause of the killing. During his stay at the penitentiary Garnes was never outside of the prison walls. He entered the prison at the age of 23. For many years he spent his time laboring in the bolt shop, but his health began to fail recently and his friends and relatives petitioned the governor to save him from dying behind the prison bars.

They had wandered into the hills to pick wild flowers and lost their way. WASHINGTON. That Carranza intends to make Tampico the Constitutionalist capital until Mexico City is captured was the import of apparently reliable information from Admiral Mayo to the Navy Department. The Oklahoma reciprocal demurrage law was annulled as unconstitutional by the Supreme Court on the ground that the Oklahoma court had held it applied to interstate commerce as well as state commerce. Official dispatches, sent from Mexico City and received at a diplomatic source in Washington, say the "withdrawal of Huerta is possible" and that it is being delayed by the necessity of "arrangements to permit the dictator to abdicate with dignity." Confirmation of the killing by Mexicans of Richard Urban, an American citizen of German birth, was received. American Consular Agent Montague at Cananea reported that Urban and a companion were attacked without provocation at Pointed mountain, eighteen miles west of Nacozari. A band of Mexicans fired from a house without warning® Urband fell dead, but his companion escaped. Former President Roosevelt came back to the national capitol, where he spent seven years as chief executive.

Mike Gibbons of St. Paul was not forced to extend himself to defeat Johnny Alberts of Elizabeth, N. J., at Syracuse, N. Y., in a ten-round mill. It was what might be called a scientific exhibition but not a scrap by any means. Neither battler got even a scratch. Fifteen thousand persons attended the opening of the thoroughbred racing season at Belmont park New York, and saw the Metropolitan handicap, at one mile, go to John Whalen's four-year-old golding, Buskin, ridden by Jockey Fairbrother, in 1:37 4:5.

COLORADO BELIEVE 1,200 LOST Empress of Ireland, With 1,200 Aboard and Storstad, Bearing 150, Collide Near Father Point, Ontario RESCUE SHIPS RUSHED TO THE SCENE OF DISASTER FIND NO TRACE OF THE HEAVILY-LADEN STEAMER. FEW LIFEBOATS AFLOAT ARE ONLY SIGN OF STRICKEN STEAMSHIPS.—WIRELESS CALLS CEASE QUICKLY. ONLY FEW SAVED. Quebec, Ontario, May 29.—Twelve hundred persons are believed to have perished thirty miles off Father Point this morning following a collision between the Canadian Pacific steamship Empress of Ireland and the collier Storstad. At 5 o'clock this morning a dispatch just received from Father Point stated that the Empress of Ireland sank almost immediately after the collision and only a few persons got away. There were approximately 1,200 persons aboard the Empress of Ireland and about 150 on the Storstad. All but a few who escaped in lifeboats which were seen near the scene of disaster are believed to have gone down with the ships. Father Point, near which the collision occurred, is 155 miles down the St. Lawrence river from Quebec at the head of the Gulf of St. Lawrence. The first news of the disaster, received from Father Point, stated that "S.O.S." signals from the Empress had declared the ship to be in collision with another vessel and sinking rapidly. While rescue ships were rushing to the scene the wireless of the Empress ceased. Latest reports declare that no sign of the ships is visible and only a few lifeboats are afloat. The Empress of Ireland was in command of Lieutenant Kendall, R. N. R., and left this port at 4:20 p. m. yesterday for Liverpool, with 77 first, 206 second, and 504 third class passengers, a large mail, and general cargo. With her crew she had some 1,200 persons aboard. Among her passengers was a large party of the Salvation Army going to the international conference of the army in London. "S.O.S." signals from the Empress brought the first announcement of the collision and the signals of distress were immediately responded to by the Canadian government steamer Eureka and the mail-tender Lady Evelyn, which put out at once to render aid. Father Point kept in communication with the Empress of Ireland for a short time, but the responses of the disabled steamer suddenly ceased, which led to fears here that the steamer was in a serious plight. Denver. — Among the passengers aboard the Empress of Ireland was Mrs. F. H. Dunleavy, wife of a Denver real estate dealer, who resides at 3021 East Seventh avenue. Mr. Dunleavy said this morning that Mrs. Dunleavy left here about a month ago for a trip through the East, and was booked to sail on the Empress of Ireland for London, where she expected to visit with relatives until September. Her name is given on the passenger list. STRIKERS BLAMED FOR ATTACK. One Man Fired from Colony and Other Ran There, Declares Report. Washington.—Colonel Lockett, commanding the United States troops in the Colorado coal fields, reported to the War Department details of the first exchange of shots between the army and the strikers. Secretary Garrison gave out this statement based upon Colonel Lockett's report: "One of our sentinels on a detached post at Segundo, a place about 35 miles south of Walsenburg, in the Trinidad district, was attacked about 10:30 on the night of May 25 by two men with firearms. Considerable disorder ensued. A full investigation was made and it was found that one of the attackers fired from the strikers' colony in the vicinity, and the other after firing retired into the colony. The return fire on the strikers and pursuit of them by the soldiers ceased because of danger to the other occupants of the colony. The leaders of the strikers' colony were requested to produce the persons of the two offenders." Posse Search for Missing Magnate. Roswell, N. M.—Posses are being organized here for a search of the foothills for Charles S. Densmore, oil minate and publisher of the Southwestern Mining Journal, who mysteriously disappeared.

PLEDGES SUPPORT DELEGATES REJOICE OVER WHAT THEY THINK WILL END HOSTILITIES. Western Newspaper Union News Service. Niagara Falls, Ont., May 29.—Mediators in the Mexican controversy have reached a completed agreement on all points and have submitted their recommendations to President Wilson, Secretary Bryan and to Victoriano Huerta in Mexico City. Representatives of Argentina, Brazil and Chile, Frederick Lehmann and Justice Lamar, representatives of the United States and the three envoy sent by Huerta are extremely happy over what they regard as a definite, equitable settlement of the difficulty. Here are the terms of the agreement reached by the mediators: First—A provisional government is to be placed in charge of Mexico. It is to consist of five men and to be representative of all factions, with Constitutionalists in the majority. Second—The government of the United States pledges itself to recognize this provisional government and also pledges to that government its moral support. Third—American troops are to leave Mexico; they are to evacuate Vera Cruz the moment the provisional government is established and operative. Fourth—Huerta is to remain in power during the organization of the provisional government and is to officially turn over to the provisional government the government of Mexico. Fifth—Provisions are made for an election at a certain period of time after the establishment of the provisional government, at which a president and other officers are to be chosen. Reforms in the election laws are provided for so that the election may be "popular, fair and impartial." Sixth—The mediators made a strong recommendation to the new provisional government for radical' reforms in the land laws. The belief and hope are unanimously expressed that the terms agreed upon will be satisfactory to President Wilson, Huerta and the Constitutionalists. Should acquiescence come within 48 hours it is expected that documents for submission to Washington and Mexico City will be ready within a week. There are some other minor details yet to be put into shape and conferences will be necessary for this purpose. The mediators and delegates intend to use every effort to maintain the secrecy of the names of individuals until all elements in the proposed new government have assented to the plan or the actual change in government accomplished. There is every reason to believe, however, that already the Washington government has in its possession a list of names from which five men acceptable to it eventually will be agreed upon. The suggestions were made by the Mexicans and the theory under which the United States is being asked to approve some of them is that it has a right to indicate who it will or will not recognize. It is also probable that this list has been sent by the Mexican delegates to General Huerta. 104 EXECUTED, 35 WOMEN SHOT. Huerta's Saltillo Defeat Results in Massacre of Federal Chiefs. Amargos, Coahuila. — Thirty - five women camp-followers lost their lives with 300 federal soldiers in the battle of Paredon, outside Saltillo, it was learned here, and fifty-seven federal officers were executed after the battle. Among those who fell before the firing squad were General Munoz, a nephew of ex-President Porfirio Diaz, General Orsono and nine colonels. Reports of these executions at first were denied but now seem well-established. The men shot, it was said, reiterated their loyalty to the Huerta government and rather than violate their allegiance to it, gave their lives. Nogales, Ariz.—Thirty-five federal officers captured by the constitutionalists at the city of Tepic were executed May 24, according to a message received here from General Alvaro Obregon, the constitutionalist commander. Cheyenne, Wyo.—W. E. Luton, town marshal of Gillette, departed for that place in custody of Sheriff L. G. Butler of Campbell county, who holds him on a warrant charging felonious assault on Lou Jenne. CROPS ARE DOING WELL ACCORDING TO REPORT OF FORECASTER BRANDENBURG. Growth Retarded in the Eastern Coun ties, But Conditions Generally Are Favorable for All Crops. Western Newspaper Union News Service. Denver. The second weekly report rendered by the local weather forecaster since the head of the department in Washington instituted the new feature of recording weather conditions and effects on vegetation in various districts, was rendered by F. H. Brandenburg. Following is the report for the week ending May 25. "Over the greater part of the state temperature conditions have been favorable to plant growth, but in the south-central part reports indicate that the weather has been too cool. In the eastern counties continued cloudiness, frequent showers, heavy precipitation and insufficient sunshine interfered with farming operations and have retarded growth, while in the western part of the state weather conditions have been ideal. "Winter wheat and rye are doing well, also oats and spring wheat, although in localities and seeding of the latter has not been completed. Conditions have been about right for the growth of sugar beets. Alfalfa and grasses are in excellent condition. Early potatoes are coming up, and fruits are generally doing well." Body of Man Found in Pool. Denver.—With both of his arms wound tightly around a fence post, the body of an unknown man was found in a pool formed by recent overflowing of the Platte river, 300 feet northeast of the Forty-sixth avenue bridge, in Globeville. The condition of the corpse indicated that it may have been in the water for a month or six weeks; and yet the place where it was found was dry land from late last summer until last week, when heavy rainfall caused the river to inundate it to a depth of three or four feet. Find Cronin Guilty of Assault. Trinidad. — Charles and Timothy Cronin, charged with assault to murder W. M. Williams, a lumber dealer, here, on March 25, were found guilty as charged, by a jury in the District Court. The jury was out two hours. Williams was found unconscious in his place of business. Charles McDonald, a Pueblo prisoner, confessed to the crime, which he denied on the witness stand. Memorial Meeting at Greeley. Greeley.—Under the auspices of the local post of the G. A. R. a memorial meeting was held at the Sterling theater.

This report was received at the headquarters of Col. Lockett. Western Newspaper Union News Services. DATES FOR COMING EVENTS. June 9-11.—G. A. R. Encampment at Fort Morgan. Lakewood, IL.

On the recent examination trip of the class of 1914, Colorado School of Mines, twenty-four of the members secured positions, in addition to the seven Chinese graduates who are provided for by their government. Former Governor Alva Adams set at rest rumors that he was to be a candidate for the United States Senate this fall by announcing that he would not enter the race. The reports that he would run have been current ever since his return from a trip around the world. Two strikers, W. Kathodovas, a Greek, and Charles Bell, American, are in the county jail at Trinidad charged with active participation in the battle and burning of the houses and mine buildings at Forbes on April 29, which resulted in the death of nine employés and mine guards of the Rocky Mountain Fuel Company.

MEMORIAL DAY. ‘Today brings foreibly to us a reminder which is dual in form—the paying of respects to our dead heroes, which is fraught with the natural feature of sadness and the impressiveness of our gain from the loss of their lives. The story is too well known for repetition herein, but we are glad to state that the celebration of the day has gone beyond the confines of war, and has filled the role of reminding families and relatives of their departed loved ones whose existence here has left them many examples which have helped to mould and shape their present career. It is not giving the flowers to the dead, but it seems so timely and charitable that we should decorate the graves and tombs of those who have predeceased us, thereby showing our token of affection, and at the same time, affording us an opportunity for self-exami- nation, COPYING AND IMITATING. We have often come in contact with people, especially of our race, who are continually charging us with the above tendency as if a terrible crime is being engaged in (they arguing that we are not originators, but copyists and imitators), and we take this opportunity of showing the benefits and ad- vantages to be obtained if we copy and imitate good ideas and examples set us by other races. On reliable historical records we base our contention that nations once in barbarism and heathenism, actually void of the beauty and grandeur of civilization, emerged from darkness into light by adopting meas- ures towards their advancement which were offered them by. self-sacrificing men who laid down their lives for the purpose of leaving standards and set- ting up perpetual monuments, which when followed, resulted in benefits that were handed down from age to age, Originators seem to be in a class by themselves, but do we ever stop to think that nothing would be heard of an original plan if it did not find acceptance and encouragement, getting the support that would give it prominence in a community. In this particular we are greatly hampered in this country, as from lack of loyalty to one another, pride in the interests of our business, etc., strongly backed up by the cruel arm of prejudice from the other side, even when we are responsible for the production of anything great and good, it is hardly ever known, and if known, for the most part so discouraged that we lose the claim and the credit of its origin. In spite of all these we must aver that it is wisdom to copy the good features and imitate the ideals of other races, as they can serve no other purpose and can bring no other results but the best, which must push us to the front, where we will take our place with others as time rolls on. Copy everything that’s good; get away from the bad. ‘The former is meritorious of success, triumph, reward; the latter spells Joss and ruin, and in the majority of cases we lose to such an extent that our action is almost irretrievable and our loss irrecoverable. ‘ Business tacties, constructive policies, get-together spirits, unanimity of ideas, educational assemblies, financial combinations are some of the stan- dards set us by other people, and surely there is ever¥thing to gain in being accused as copyists of such qualities which must bring us unlimited resources. Follow, then, that which is of good, is good, and the inevitable will therefore result, PROHIBITION CAMPAIGN STARTS. ee a give th , and the leaders of the movement against the use of alco-| most. it hether publicly or privately, having issued their ultimatum Li - started in earnest to try to monopolize all the strategical | js in it efield, and with their modern machinery of plans and plots,| goog 1 on the ‘conscience of a people and nation. denriving tan le ‘The fight is on, and the leaders of the movement against the use of alco: holic beverages, whether publicly or privately, having issued their ultimatum to the nation, have started in earnest to try to monopolize all the strategical points on the battlefield, and with their modern machinery of plans and plots, intend to pounce upon the conscience of a people and nation, depriving them of their domestic privileges by dictating the kind of drinks they should use, instead of leaving them to their choice. THIS DESPOTIC ACTION MUST REMAIN IN TURKEY, for although the forces of Prohibition are marshalling all the money and speakers of great oratorical powers to enforce the adoption of an unworkable measure on this country of such a cosmopolitan population, yet the saneness and soberness of more than two-thirds of the voting element of this great republic will prove to our reformers that we are not going to relapse to the barbarism or pertain to the fiendish qualities or practices of some other countries by removing alcohol and substituting opium or other narcotics which will surely do more deadly work, thereby increasing our death rate and necessarily diminishing our population. While there are a few states in the Union that have carried this proposition of not sanctioning the general use of alcohol, yet they have allowed margins for its special use, in what is termed CASES OF NECES: SITY, and this is where the mockery comes in; that in nearly all of the prohibitive places the prescriptions in which alcohol is compounded amount to nearly 75 per cent of the annual output. This fact we have gotten from sources that have been specializing for years on the comparison of the public use of alcohol (its present form) and the medicinal use which our reformers would try to convince and then convert us, goes towards the betterment of a people, There must be no compromise, no half and half, no partially negative and affirmative action, If alcohol is not to be used, if it is such a “great destroyer” (as Congressman Hobson of Alabama would have us believe), then we must do away with it in its entirety; we must close our family liquor stores, take it out of our drug stores, hermetically seal our breweries, and last but not least, write indelibly fn the books of our treasury the non-accept: ance of money for the manufacturing or licensing of the sale of liquor in the United States. ‘This shows the monstrous fallacy of the Prohibition promoters, and we assert with emphasis right here in Colorado that we disapprove of any inter: ference by any federal act of our hereditary right and customary privileges, when there are laws already enacted to punish us for any action of crime. Why make the use of alcohol a erime? (mic current has two poles, and the electrician must recognize them before he can harness the force, The two sexes are nature’s great proclamation of this duality. No form exisis that was not previously conceived, and there is no manifestation without spirit and matter, the former being ‘the positive and the latter the negative force. We talk glibly about them and then go on acting as if only one of them were in existence. Some take the side of matter and some the side of spirit. The truth is they are counterparts of each other, Man is a dual being, and there is nothing in one part of the duality that has not its analogy in the other. One of the best ways to comprehend this is to study the physical body of man, following its analogies. It is conceded by many men of science that the various parts and organs or glands of the body have a life of their own, but an organ is a congregation of living celle, each being an individual in its place. When they have fulfilled their purpose these cells die of old age, leaving young ones in their places. ‘This is true of cellular structures of the whole body except the nerve cells. They are permanent and endure during the life of the man. If it were possible to strike away every other cell from a body and leave the nervous system intact and in place, we would have every part of the outline of the man’s body, even to his most minute features. Every cell in the organic man receives its life and guiding force through a tendril from a nerye cell. So every collection of cells forming an organ or muscle gets its guiding impulse from a given center in the spinal cord, and through that from a epecific center in the brain. As the brain is the organ of thought, the mind of man is the supreme being to the cell. ‘As the mind of the physical man is the supreme being to the body cell, the nerve cell being its organ of communication, so is the mind of God ever playing upon the mind of man, through the ego, his organ of communica- tion. “As above, so below,” is an ancient occult maxim, and it is thus that man is created in the image of God, and his physical body is the negative manifestation. po oue shall be permitted to indulge his anger upon the helpless young. In the rearing of children, as in any other branch of the world’s work, a constructive policy is always preferable to a destructive one. You can’t breed broad-minded, honorable, courageous men on a diet of fear. The works of Frederich Froebel, of Parker, of Pestalozzi, of Miss O’Grady, are monuments to the development of character and the upbuilding of the race. Their theory, proved by its success, was “prevention of wrong activity by the proper direction of the natural forces and latent powers of the child.” Paternal neglect, improper habits and unwholesome environment are the general causes of delinquency, truancy and grosser forms of juvenile sin. Thus it is again demonstrated that the child suffers for the sins, incompetence and ignorance-of the parent. A careful perusal of Rudyard Kipling’s tale, “Baa, Baa, Black Sheep,” would more clearly elucidate the responsibilities of parents and’ grandparents and demonstrate the products of their errors, Like begets like, and children reared in an atmosphere of hate, cruelty and revenge naturally respond to those vibrations, and are capable of all the animal passions that go to make up undesirable citizens. Nor ix the child the only sufferer; hate, like all other emotions, is introactive, 'and the parent is coarsened by the infliction of such punishment, even | more than the victim. . lation becomes an easy prey for an ambitious general with a daring army. Japan proved this in her wars with Russia and China. Large standing armies breed military despotism, under which all useless crafts and vicious monopolies grow fat and arrogant. So there is wisdom in the suggestion to give a military training to every American youth in every public school in every state in the Union. An hour each day after school will answer the purpose. ‘This system would eliminate the necessity for a large stand- ing army and at the same time, in the course of twenty-five years. would give the United States trained material for an army of 10,000,000. of the most intelligent and capable men in the world. Lack of patriotism, indifference of Americans to the national defense. is in itself sufficient cause ultimately to destroy this republic. This nation does not believe in war because at present it has ample territory. With Europe and Japan it is different, The present influx of foreigners to this country will soon cause this government to look with warlike vision for a distant dumping ground for its own surplus population. For the peace of this nation immigration should be stopped indefinitely. | Men with iron in their blood must settle this question. A nation of gelatinized shrimps is not fit to rule, and soon it becomes a tempting prey for those who are. Such is history. high as $1,500 to $2,000 had been paid for them. One dealer who. it is said, could have sold his stock of foxes in July for $65,000, sold two weeks ago for less than $35,000, the latter price being due to the decline in prices, to some extent, but also to the fact that many of the animals had died in the meantime. “One young black fox, for which $1,600 had been paid, died five days after being placed in the corral, Owing to the decline in price fully 150 young foxes, all of the rel variety, held in captivity in southern, Yukon, have been turned out t« return to their native haunts in the wilds.

Hiram Commandery of Knight Templars of Denver held Ascension Day service at Shorter Chapel Sunday evening. The popularity of the craft was evidenced by the large audience in attendance, notwithstanding the fact that the public announcement of the meeting was made only a day or so in advance. Few organizations have presented so imposing and attractive appearance as did the Sir Knights and members of the Chapel of the Eastern Star. Our pastor delivered the sermon for the occasion, and so acceptably was its reception by the members of the craft and congregation that the most flattering compliments were showered upon him. One Sir Knight going so far in his expression of approval as to pledge a donation of $5. The contest for the gold headed cane is on in dead earnest by the Ushers club. Vote for your choice. The race grows more and more exciting as the end of the contest approaches. June 18th is the date.

Here Are Six Suggestions for the Use of the Delicious Fruit—Muffins Added to Enjoyment of Af- Strawberry Bavarian Cream.—Take one cupful of mashed strawberries, using both the pulp and the juice, three-quarters of cupful of powdered sugar, one cupful heavy cream stiffly beaten, and three-quarters of level tablespoonful of granulated gelatin. Soak the gelatin in four tablespoonfuls cold water. When it is soft, melt over hot water. Add melted gelatin to strawberry juice and let it partially cool or set. Beat the sugar in the whipped cream, fold this into the partly set gelatin and allow the whole to stiffen thoroughly before serving. It may be molded in large fancy mold, in a plain loaf, or individual molds. This dish may be served with plain cream and sugar or the remainder of the box of strawberries may be mashed, sweetened to taste, and poured around it. Old-Fashioned Strawberry Short Cake.—One quart flour, one scant teaspoonful salt, two teaspoonful baking powder, two tablespoonfuls butter, one pint milk. Sift flour, salt and powder together, rub in cold butter, add milk and mix into smooth dough just soft enough to handle. Divide in half and roll out the size of pan used. Bake in hot oven 20 minutes. Separate the cake, and spread with butter. Hull one quart strawberries, wash, mash, add cupful sugar, spread over cake and serve. Steamed Strawberry Pudding.—Mix one cupful sugar, two eggs, one teaspoonful baking powder, two cupful flour, one cupful sweet milk, two cupfuls strawberries and steam two hours. Mash two additional cupfuls of berries, add three-quarters cupful sugar and serve with pudding. Strawberry Punch—Hull and wash one quart ripe strawberries and half a pint raspberries. Crush together and strain juice through a sieve. Make a sirtup of two cupfuls sugar and one and one-half cupfuls water. Mix with the juice and sirup a large tumbler port wine. Keep on ice for several hours. Serve in small glasses with lady fingers. Strawberry Muffins—Add to one pint flour two teaspoonfuls baking powder and a little salt; sift all together. Cream one-quarter cupful of butter, two tablespoonfuls sugar and add the beaten yolks of two eggs. Stir into butter, sugar and eggs alternately one cupful sweet milk and the flour mixture. When smooth, stir in beaten whites of two eggs. Have ready one cupful fresh strawberries thoroughly cleaned and hulled and sprinkled with sugar. Stir into the mixture without breaking. Pour in buttered muffins, bake in slow oven three-quarters of an hour and serve warm. Strawberry Layer Cake.—Cream one cupful sugar and one tablespoonful butter. Add one egg, beaten thoroughly, one cupful sweet milk, two cupfuls flour into which two teaspoonfuls baking powder have been sifted, a pinch of salt and a dash of nutmeg. Divide this mixture into two or three cake tins and bake in a moderately hot oven. Hull and clean one box strawberries, cut the berries in half, sweeten and place between and on top of layers. Whip a half pint cream until stiff. Put over berries and serve. Rhubarb Dumplings Children will enjoy these for lunch or supper, even though they do not like rhubarb. Many children very much dislike it, in fact. The rhubarb is stewed in half its weight of sugar and a little water. While it is cooking mix a biscuit batter, using a pint of flour, a half teaspoonful salt, two teaspoonfuls of baking powder and a cupful of milk. Drop this in the rhubarb by spoonfuls and cook for from eight to ten minutes. A pinch of ground ginger or a few raisins can be added if the flavor is liked. For Emergencies To keep the tablecloth clean at a child's place, I have found it most helpful to get some thin white oilied paper, spread under the child's plate and extending a little beyond. It will be very noticeable, especially if it is cut and laid smoothly on the cloth. To keep a meal hot for a late comer take a soup plate and almost fill it with hot water, then place the dinner plate, with its contents, on top of the hot soup plate, and cover closely with another plate.—Exchange. Little Steamed Puddings Cream one-quarter cupful of butter with one-half cupful of sugar, add one-half cupful of milk, then one cupful of flour sifted with two level teaspoonfuls of baking powder and a pinch of salt, and last fold in the stiffly beaten whites of three eggs. Have some small molds or cups buttered, fill half full with the batter, cover with buttered paper and steam three-quarters of an hour. Serve hot with a sauce. Individual Peach Dessert In a frappe glass place one-half a peach from a can of peaches, with the cavity side up. In the hollow place four or five marshmallows and nearly cover with sirup from the can. Now heap up the glass with whipped cream pled lightly on top of the marshmallows. Serve very cold with crisp mao arroons.

There were two Appomattox towns in 1865. It was at Appomattox Sta- tion on the line of railway between Petersburg and Lynehburg that Sheri- dan’s cavalry captured a train of sup- ‘plies from Lynchburg intended for Lee's army.

In a particularly dark stretch of pines the traveler comes upon the North Carolina monument, the most— in fact, the only—imposing marker on the fields of Appomattox.

The woods at this time were full of Con- federate sharpshooters who were pick- ing off men here and there. When General Reynolds, accompanied by his aids, Captains Mitchell and Baird, and Orderly Charles H. Veil, rode up one of the Union regiments was approach- ing the woods. Reynolds exclaimed, ‘Forward, men; forward, for God's sake, and drive those fellows out of the woods!’ He turned to look for his supports and to hurry them on, but before he could speak again the bullet of a sharpshooter had penetrat- ed his brain and he fell forward, dying, upon his horse. His fall was not no- ticed by the troops, who swept on and ‘compelled Archer's brigade to sur- render.

Law- less, Jr., pastor of University church, and President EB. M. Stevens of Straight university have returned to Washington from the National Congre- gational convention held in Washing- ton. A large delegation was present from all sections of the United States. Four national Congregational socie- ties were represented in the conven- tion, viz: The National Congregational council, the Congregational Church Building society, the Sunday School and Publication society and the Amer- ican Misstorary association. The American Missionary associa- tion is carrying on a most extensive work among the colored people. It is now conducting and maintaining 64 schools for the colored people in the South, with an enrollment of 14,000, under the direction of 600 trained teachers. ‘The churches among the colored people of the South number 206, with a membership of 15,000. A most aggressive program for the fur- ther extension of church work, for bet- ter equipment of school buildings, and higher efficiency in school work was adopted. The new program calls for greater local initiative, a more dis criminating missionary support, a larger number of _ self-supporting churches, increased activities in 50 cial service in urban and rural centers, closer supervision of the field and a Sunday school superintendent for the colored schools i the south. Rev. Sterling M. Brown of Washing- ton was elected president of the con- vention. Rev. H. H. Proctor, D. D., of Atlanta, Ga., was eletced secretary. ‘The next convention will meet at Tal- jJadega college, Talladega, Ala. Although she is only thirty-one years old, Mrs, Winfield Stoner of Quarrysville, Pa., is the mother of nine children, and in a competition with 350 others she was proclaimed the champion cake baker. A final word on the subject of our personal responsibility as an executive council to the churches seems to be needed, says a correspondent of the Standard. It has been suggested that the executive council should ignore all organizations among the churches and deal directly with local churches. In many cases that may be the fair and proper way to operate, but I am firmly convinced that the experiences of the executive council in its work as well as the present needs of the negro churches only tend to emphasize the advisability of using our friendly of- fices to secure among the negro churches such an organization of forces as will win the respect and the regard of possible benefactors and make it possible for us to do through them as a group force, what we are confident that we could do less satis- factorily if we dealt with them sepa- rately and ignored that important and essential relationship which éhey have with one another. Miss Cristie Holmberg has been elected clerk in Santa Barbara, Cal., by an overwhelming majority over her male opponent.

Countess Molitor, an English wom- an, will shortly start on a perilous trip across the Ruba-el-Khali, the great sandy desert of South Arabia, alone, using only native guards. The Southern negro is working out his own salvation, not in terms of poli- ties, not in terms of formal education, but in terms of property ownership; end mainly in terms of land in the rural regions. He is doing this with- out let or hindrance in the South, largely aside from the awareness of the whites, largely because of thelr in- difference, but even more largely with the sympathy and help of his white friends and neighbors. He is lifting himself by tugging at his own boot straps, a figure commonly used to in- dicate an impossible something; but in cfvilization, as in education, it is the only possible means of elevation. The negro is emerging from Jungle- Hei and winning civilization mainly and necessarily by his own efforts. His progress every inch of the way is marked by struggle—struggle within himself for mastery over himself and struggle outward, surrounding circum: stances. The negro problem will not be solved by editorials, creeds or stat: utes; by conferences, congresses or assemblies; by pride, prejudice or pas: sion. The development of the negro can be stimulated, safeguarded and di- rected wisely and beneficently. ‘The stream of tendencies can be kept clear of injustice and cruelty, brutality and inhumanity, and {t will be so if we have any Christianity worth the name. —Dr. B. C. Rranson in the Southern Workman. A plea to the Methodist Episcopal church, South, asking it to take a deeper interest in the affairs of the colored Methodist Episcopal church is contained in the quadrennial address of bishops which was made at a gen- eral conference of the colored church at St. Louis. When a woman {s in love with a man she'll listen to what he says— just as if he were saying something. Well worth consideration is this’ex- tract from an editorial in the Chicago Record-Herald: “The problem 1s to educate these grown-up children into mental and moral maturity. That is no easy task. Rather it {s an arduous effort to which many a life must be given, and it will never be helped along by oratory, but only by the patient teach- ing of line upon Mne, precept upon precept, till the fundamentals of hon- esty, thrift, thoroughness and keeping one's word have been drilled into their understanding and worked out by them in practise, To that end such a humble and patlent propaganda as Booker Washington's, aiming to make the blacks into well-behaved citizens and good workers, honest and reliable, fs worth all the oratory of Demos- thenes and Cicero and Alexander L. Jackson combined.” ‘i Strikes and lockouts in Rhode Is- land during 1913 caused a loss of $122,- 855 to wage-earners and about three hundred and fifty thousand dollars in value of production to employers, ac- cording to the report of the commis. stoner of industrial statistics. London is. divided into two camps over the proposition to widen Rich- mond bridge, over the Thames. The bridge was opened for traffic in 1777. The way is narrow, but opponents of the improvement plan say that to tamper with the ancient structure will destroy its beauty. L, B.

If housewives knew what a great saving there was in having three or even four sets of ‘blankets for their beds, in as many weights, they would not hesitate to make the outlay for them. The cotton or silk and cotton, blankets of June, July and August Should be washed and rebound, if needed, and put away in their tar bags to give place to those of cotton and wool. | Now, the all-wool blankets, as all housewives know, are most difficult to launder perfectly, and are not al- ways satisfactorily dry cleaned, so every effort must be made to keep them clean. This is done by using them only in the extreme cold months, December, January and February, then shaking and airing them care- fully, putting them away. If the up- per sheet is very long, so that it folds over, and the spread is used over the blankets, they may really be used two seasons or more without a real wash- ing being necessary. This method prolongs the life of the blankets and makes them always seem new. And once in two years one may afford to buy a new pair of blankets to use for best or to replace those that have grown the bhabbiest in service. Old blankets are always in demand in the household. economy for under blankets, ironing board pads, scrub rags and polishing hardwood floors, and in a dozen other ways. The Indian blankets offered in our markets today are rather new, but already in demand, especially those of the Navajo weaving. This tribe numbers about 1,600 natives and they have a million sheep on their reserva- tions. The designs on their blankets are geometrical as a rule, and the colors are black, blue, red, yellow and gray. They are warm and durable, so are in great demand for northern travelers and residents at the army posts. They are also quite a dominant note in the eastern blanket centers. OLD CHICKEN FOR FRYING More Economical and as Appetizing as Young Bird If Prepared in ‘This Fashion. Few women know that from the much-despised old hen one can make a delicious dish of fried chicken. The market price of old fowl is always from 4 to 6 Cents less per pound than that for the young birds; also, the former has the better flavor. Clean and cut up the old bird as for stewing (this must be done in the morning for an evening dinner), put in stew pan two small onions, some pars- ley, salt to taste and a pinch of pap- rika. Add the chicken and enough water and stew gently until tender. Do not take the fowl from the stew pot too soon, as herein lies the secret of a tasty meal, but allow it to remain in its own Juices until you are ready to fry it. Then remove to a placter and lightly flour each piece. Have your frying pan hot; add your butter and a few tablespoonfuls of olive ofl. Fry to a delicate brown and serve in a bed of lettuce, with milk dressing, or cream, if preferred. ‘The chicken stock will make a fine cream of chicken soup or clear soup for luncheon. If the hen is fat, there will be on the soup stock, when cooled, a large amount of rendered fat, which maybe skimmed off and used for frying pota- toes, thus affording saving in lard. eynlev Gramm Gale: Make a one-egg cake and bake in round tin and cut with sharp knife.

Western Newsnaper Union News Service. Denver—Major Patrick J. Hamrock, tried before the court-martial com- mission at the Golden rifle range on charges of “murder,” manslaughter, arson and larceny growing out of the burning of the strikers’ tent colony at Ludlow April 29, appeared in the proceedings as principal witness to de- fend men under him on similar charges. | Hamrock repeated his version of the ‘conflict which resulted in the deaths of twenty-five persons, twenty-one of whom were members of strikers’ fam- fles. The ten defendents arraigned each testified that Hamrock had pre- sented the battle as it occurred. Each denied that he saw any looting of the eglony or deliberate burning of the tents by members of the militia, He reiterated a belief that the strik- ers had fired first after he had sum- MAJ.

Skirts, with all their drapery, cling rather closely to the figure. Coats are short in the front and lengthen more or less toward the back. Many of them reach only a little below the waist line. Most of them open at the front and are finished with revers. The rolling, or standing collar, worn with the coat, is made of fine net or lace and wired to stay in place. An original design is portrayed here which differs in a few particulars from the majority of suits. It is very practical and quite graceful. There is in this model a peg-top skirt, narrow about the feet, with a short tunic skirt over it. The jacket buttons up the front but may be opened to the bust line, with oddly shaped pointed revers finishing it at the sides. The sleeves are smaller and longer than in the most popular of the tailor-made suits. There is a wide frill of lace hanging over the hand and standing about the neck. Small pockets are simulated at each side on the body of the coat. Besides being unusual and attractive this model possesses much distinct- Pretty Hats of Jet and Maline THE LADY OF THE ROAD 88 FOR those who like jet in millinery, combinations of jet and maline prove themselves most attractive. Masses of maline absorb and hide the light, but jet tosses it about, plays with it incessantly, and this union of quiet and glitter makes the jet and maline hat fascinating. There is nothing new in the combination; anything so good does not need to be new, for it is recommended by more sterling virtues than mere novelty. What is new in jet and maline hats is the manner of combining the two materials, and the shapes. Just a glance at the three hats shown in the picture illustrates how original and effective the designer can be in using the materials given her. A dashy, jaunty little hat hints of the Napoleon shape, with a jet coronet extending about the head, and a crown of a half-dozen thicknesses of maline. There is a border of folded maline softening the outline of the brim and two brushes or cockades of jet furnishing the trimming. The drooping one at the right side might be dispensed with, if the hat is to be worn tion. Its thoroughly practical points make themselves evident. Combinations of two materials are featured in tailored gowns for spring. A plain cloth skirt with a plaid jacket, or a cross-barred skirt with a plain coat, or a figured material trimmed with checks, are bright and pleasing. Perhaps the best-liked combination of all is that of black moire silk in bands and flounces on cloth of a contrasting color. The draped collar must not go unmentioned. It lies in loose folds across the back and is cut sailor-fashion with pointed ends forming a "V" at the neck. It is among the most striking and becoming of the touches that mark the tailored gowns of this season. The extremely short jacket and coat fronts lengthen the appearance of the figure at the front. By observing the different models a selection is possible that will either lengthen or shorten the apparent height of the wearer. Altogether, we have not had more attractive suits than these. But coats have been more shapely and rather more difficult to make than the loose-hanging variety which is now the vogue. THE by an older woman. It is a shape that may be placed on the head at several angles, and this widens its field considerably. For the jet hat has the advantage of appropriateness on both youthful and elderly heads. The turban with soft crown of maline and brim of jet, trimmed with curled peacock feathers, is so smart and unusual in style that it would arrest the attention anywhere. In this, folded maline follows the outline of the brim, and the crown is made of several thicknesses of maline. It is a shape for the youthful wearer. The placing of the feathers is especially clever. One of the shapes which lifts away from the left side of the head with its crown forming a background for the profile is shown in the third picture. It is one of the most successful of hats. There is a bandeau which almost amounts to a cap, covered with frills of maline. The shape is draped with net, spangled with tiny jet sequins. An upstanding spray of fine feathers completes the model. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. PHONE MAIN 61 23—Day or Night THE DOUGLASS UNDERTAKING COMPANY INCORPORATED AND BONDED J. R. CONTEE Pres. and Mgr.
