New Jersey Man On Progress Of Negroes
New Jersey On Prog
Camden, N. J., Oct. 7.—A notable plea for justice for the American Negro was made by Congressman William J. Browning of the first district of New Jersey, at a recent gathering of colored Sunday school workers in Washington, D. C. He said in part:
My mother was a good woman, a woman, of more than usual intelligence. She was a member of the Society of Friends, a Quakeress, as we say, and like most of that Society she was strongly opposed to the institution of chattel slavery. There are a few old men in Camden today who can recall her quiet, but brave, stand for justice to the colored race during the early part of the civil war, when to demand human treatment for the race meant social ostracism. There were clergymen in those days, clergymen (God save the mark!) who misquoted Holy Writ to prove that the colored man was not a human being. Personally, I have never known exactly what race prejudice is. I know that there is no one here or elsewhere who can truthfully charge me with race prejudice. It is only naturally that I should look upon my colored brother as being a fellow citizen with the same rights and privileges that I have. Considering my ancestry, what else could even my critics expect? The colored man is just as much entitled to a fair deal as I am, and, moreover, when his rights are infringed my rights are in danger, for as sure as justice is justice and God is God, we are all one, children of one blood, coming into the world in the same manner, having the same aspirations, the same failings, and at the end reaping our common heritage, six feet of earth. May the good Lord help us to deal justly with one another regardless of this idle and wicked discrimination because God made of us darker, or lighter, or because he didn't make all look alike!
"Looking back into history, I come to the conclusion that this matter of race prejudice is only a matter of dates. In other words, every rose, like every dog, has its day. We have reasons for believing that the Ethiopians were once the dominant race. There are many indications that the ancient Egyptians, with their wonderful art, and their engineering achieve-
ments, were a very dark-skinned people, in fact were colored people. In the light of this fact from history how absurd is race prejudice? How silly it all is, nay, how wicked in the sight of God to whom a thousand years is as one of our days! Poor, puny man sets up these race boundaries and then calls upon God to bless him! No wonder the Psalmist exclaimed: "What is man that thou art mindful of him!"
"I believe it is capable of demonstration, my friends, that no other race in history ever made such progress to me proves the mental capacity of the colored man, a capacity that can be dimly traced back to the time when he was the dominant race. I know I shall be criticized for this statement, but any fair minded student of history will bear me-out when I say that nearly all the arts and sciences were invented or discovered by darker races than the Anglo-Saxon. The colored man was cultivating the arts and sciences when the Anglo-Saxon was running, a half-nacked savage, through the forests Germany. The Anglo-Saxon is merely the heir to all that has gone before him. True, he has done many wonderful things, but he has only developed principles laid down before him.
"Let us see what the colored race in America has accomplished in the last fifty years: In 1863 the colored people in this county numbered 790,000. Now they number 10,000,000 in round figures. Then they owned 300,000 acres of land valued, on the average, at about $3 an acre. Then 9,000 owned their homes. To-day 550,000 own their homes. Then two thousand were engaged in business. Today forty thousand are engaged in business. Then four thousand owned farms. To day two hundred and twenty five thousand own farms. Then the per capita wealth of the colored race in this country was $25. To-day the per capita wealth is $175. I hope the pastor here will remember this fact about your per capita wealth the next time any of you tell him you cannot afford to contribute to the church work.
"I want to call your attention particularly to the fact that these figures, from the census reports, deal entirely with property values

and not with ornamental things or with fancy accomplishments. We say sometimes that 'Money is the root of all evil.' It is the root of good citizenship. Your Frederick Douglas was terribly right when he said that Money, or property, is the condition by which we rise to the dignity of genuine manhood; for without property there can be no leisure, without leisure there can be no thought, without thought there can be no invention.' And yet, mark you, material development is not all, but it should come first
'Your race has much to be proud of. Rated a little more than fifty years ago as being slightly above the planter's mules, to-day you have taken your place as citizens in this republic, and even in the South you are steadily winning recognition as men and brethren. The future is bright for you, I really believe. Cultivate race pride and determine that you will own your shares of the substantial things of this life. Make the things that will bring the whole world to your door.
"True, there may be some difficulty in establishing yourselves in the mechanical and commercial lines, but the people will come your way. They are coming your way now. In the South colored men are running banks in which white men are depositors, colored men are contracting for and building white men's houses, they are running grocery stores, and other stores, and giving credit to white men. I heard a story the other day about two white men in the South, white men of the old, bitter type, who watched a colored man pass down the street. One of these men remarked as he looked after the colored man, 'Gosh! Since that fellow blossomed out with a three-story brick house, all paid for, I have gotten into the habit of calling him "Mister."
"There's your cue, men and brethren, make them call you 'Mister.'"
Philadelphia, Pa., Oct. 14—The Church of St. Catherine of Sienna, Penn and King street, erected at a cost of $50,000 for the use of Negro Catholics as a memorial to the late Archbishop Ryan, was dedicated Sunday morning by Archbishop Prendergrast, Monsiguir, Charlea F. Kavanaugh, chancellor of the diocese, preached the sermon, and a choir of 25 Negroes, Edward Monck, choirmaster, furnished the music. A solomn high mass was celebrated by the Rev. Patrick McHale. The building is of the old Spanish mission style, 42 by 92 feet' with two one-story wings for the sacristies. The walls are of stone, with white cement, the roof ie red tiled and a companion glares the front. Ornamental features are Byzantine.

Educated in the Denver public schools and University of Denver, Mr. Eaton has spent 33 years of his life in Denver as a business man and lawyer, during which time he was engaged in mercantile business with his father, employed at the Colorado National Bank, then his own warehouse business and at present a practicing lawyer since 1909. He has interested himself specially in Colorado politics and promises to devote his time and to labor conscientiously for the welfare of the state. Vote for him by placing an X opposite his name on election day and time will prove him a foeman worthy of his steel. Having known Mr. Eaton for twenty-five years the Statesman takes pleasure in recommending him to our colored port, being assured that he will render good service.

Born October 3, 1866, in Dane County, Wisconsin, he was reared on a farm. His father fought in the war of the rebellion. The first twenty-one years of Mr. Sabin's life was spent working on the farm, teaching country school and going to school when he had the money to do so. He came to Colorado in April, 1889, worked in the Clear Creek County Bank at Georgetown for two and one-half years, then went back to Wisconsin University and took a law course from which institution he graduated in June, 1893. Arriving in Idaho Springs, Colorado, in January, 1894, he practiced law for fifteen years, coming on to Denver, where he has located for more than five years. In the election on November 3rd you are asked to look down the column of representatives on the ballot, find the name of Sabin and put your X after it, which means your approval of his services in the twentieth assembly, as his experience and ability merit strong and loyal support from his fellow-citizens, as his interests will be theirs. The Colorado Statesman in indorsing Mr. Sabin urges every colored voter to cast their ballot for him, as there will be no disappointment attendant with his election.

Born in Chicago 34 years ago and coming to Denver at the age of 17, Mr. Knauss worked his way through the State University of Colorado and passed a highly creditable examination as a lawyer. He has practiced law in Denver for 10 years and though a young man is thoroughly conversant with Colorado politics. He was a candidate for the Legislature on the Republican ticket when we had the Democratic landslide and only lacked 300 votes of being elected. Mr. Knauss pledges himself to work for a reduction of taxes, and the Statesman takes great pleasure in recommending him to a favorable consideration of the people and trust that you will place X opposite his name which will help to elect him in the Senate.

If there ever was a time when the people of Colorado would show their appreciation of the use of the ballot it must be on November 3, when a sweeping victory for Carlson will prove that although he is the Republican party's choice, yet the time has come when, tiring of the continuous turmoilts that our state has passed and is passing through, the people have resolved to elect a man who listens to the dictates of his conscience first, and then in conjunction with the wish of the people consents to be at the helm of the ship of state and steer her clear of the rocks that now surround her. Capable and conscientious, keen and honest of mind, with fairplay to all and preferment to none from a prejudicial standpoint, he needs no delegation to wait on him as he is approachable and ever ready to give audience on matters of state,

especially concerning the welfare of the people and the obedience to law. In his declaration he emphatically asserts that he will see the laws of the state carried out, whether in their present form or changed, and opens the door to the public to inform him at all times on matters which need reform for the social, moral and financial uplift of the community of which he is a member.
For the foregoing reasons The Colorado Statesman is supporting this candidate absolutely, and we, from our personal experience with him and his associates who have urged him to come forward to save the fair name of the state, even at a great sacrifice to himself, strongly advise and impress all voters to place the X opposite the name of George A. Carlson for governor, which will help to insure peace, plenty and prosperity to Colorado.
Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Oct. 17.—In order to help the Tuskegee Institute, in Alabama, meet the growing demand for colored veterinary surgeons, a gentleman in New York has just provided the means with which to erect a modern, up-to-date Veterinary Hospital at the Tuskegee Institute. Plans for the building are now being prepared, and it will be erected within a few months.

IN PROHIBITION STATES
Colorado is facing another economie crisis, brought on by im-
ported professional agitators. :
This time they are insisting on inflicting state-wide prohibition
upon us.
If they succeed in their designs, they will reduce the license
revenues in Colorado by $970,000 a year.
. Colorado taxpayers will have to make it up.
If by any chance, through lies, misrepresentations and abuse,
they should hoodwink the majority into voting for state-wide pro-
hibition—
More than 2,000 store buildings will be made vacant.
‘The owners of these buildings will lose not less than $2,000,000
a year in rentals, because there are no other business enterprises to
eceupy them.
26,000 men will be thrown out of employment.
Allowing only $2°a day to each of these 26,000 men, the payroll
will be cut $52,000 a day, and the yearly payroll will be cut by
$18,824,000 a year. A great majority of these employés being mem-
bers of organized labor, they average nearer $4 a day than $2 a day.
Every line of business will deeply feel this loss.
The imported professional agitators will not bear any of these
losses, because they will be introducing their bunco games in states
far removed from here, leaving you, Mr. Taxpayer, and you, Mr.
Merchant, and you, Mr. Property Owner, and you, Mr. Clerk, and
you, Mr. Laborer, and you, Mr. ’Stoekgrower, and you, Mr. Banker,
and you, Mr. Farmer, and you, Mr. Everybody, to pay for their folly.
These are cold, hard facts, not speculative theories.
Colorado has an effective local option law which gives the right
to every community to regulate the liquor traffie according to the
needs or desires of that community. This law operates without de-
moralizing business in other communities.
Prohibition demoralizes business all over the state.
Prohibition does not decrease drunkenness.
Prohibition drives men to drugs and to secret drinking.
Prohibition will increase your taxes by one-third.
Prohibition will decrease your income by at least one-half.
Regulate the liquor traffic, but do not send Colorado broke and
do not lower the morals of the state by driving the liquor traffic
into underground caves where it cannot be regulated,
COLORADO TAXPAYERS, PROPERTY OWNERS, MERCHANTS,
BANKERS, LABORERS CANNOT BEAR THE BURDEN
OF STATE-WIDE PROHIBITION.
' IT IS NOT A REMEDY; IT IS A FAULT.

Owells on American Freedom From

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington.—President Wilson to-
day issued a proclamation designating
Thursday, Nov. 26, as Thanksgiving
day.
The President's proclamation, which
refers to the fact that the United
States is at peace while the rest of the
world is at war, follows:
By the President of the United
States of America,
A proclamation:
It has long been the honored cus-
tom of our people to turn in the fruit-
ful autumn of the year in praise and
thanksgiving to Almighty God for His
many blessings and mercies to us as
a nation. ‘The year that is now draw-
ing to a close since we last observed
our day of national thanksgiving has
been, while a year of discipline be-
cause of the mighty forces of war and
of change which have disturbed the
world, also a year of special blessings
for us.
It has been youchsafed to us to re-
main at peace, with honor, and in
some part to succor the suffering and
supply the needs of those who are in
want. We have been privileged by our
own peace and self-control in some de-
gree to steady the counsels and
shape the hopes and purposes of a
day of fear and distress, Our people
have looked upon their own life as a
nation with deeper comprehension, a
fuller realization of their responsibili-
ties as well as of their blessings, and
a Keener sense of the moral and prac-
tical significance of what their part
among the nations of the world may
come to be.
‘The hurtful effects of foreign war
in their own industrial and commercial
affairs have made them feel the more
fully and see the more clearly their
mutual interdependence upon one an-
other and has stirred them to a help-
ful co-operation such as they have sel-
| dom practiced before. They have been
| quickened by a great moral stimula-
| tion. ‘Their unmistakable ardor for
| peace, their earnest. pity and disin-
| terested sympathy for those who are
| suffering, their readiness to help and
| to think of the needs of others has re-
vealed them to themselves as well as
| to the world,
|, Our crops will feed all who need
food; the self-possession of our peo-
| ple amidst the most serious anxieties
| and difficulties and the steadiness
and- resourcefulness of our business
men will serve other nations as well
as our own.
‘The business of the country has
been supplied with instrumentalities
and the commerce of the world with
Hew channels of trade and inter
course. The Panama canal has been
opened to the commerce of the na-
tions. The two continents of America
have been bound in closer ties of
friendship. New instrumentalities of
international trade have been created
which will be also new instrumen-
talities of acquaintance, intercourse
and mutual service. Never before
have the people of the United States
been so situated for their own advan-
tage or the Advantage of their neigh-
bors or so equipped to serve them-
selves and mankind.
Now, therefore, I, Woodrow. Wil-
son, President. of the United States of
America, do hereby designate ‘Thurs
day, the twenty-sixth of November
next, as a day of thanksgiving and
prayer and invite the people through-
out the land to cease from their
wonted occupations and in their sev-
eral homes and places of worship ren-
der thanks to Almighty God.
In witness whereof I have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal of
the United States to be affixed.
Done at the city of Washington this
twenty-eighth day of October, in the
year of Our Lord, one thousand, nine
hundred and fourteen and of the
independence of the United States of
America the one hundred and thirty-
ninth.

‘The agricultural department of the

so far has been voluntary, and has not

effort emanating from some central
authority. ‘The state of Texas has

The sum of $55,000, appropriated by
congress for expenses of the expost-
tion to celebrate the fiftieth anniver-
Sary of the emancipation of the negro
and to show the advancement and
achievements of the negro race in edu-
caticn and in the industria! work of
the nation, to be held next year, near
Richmond, Va., will be turned over
by the government to a depository at
Richmond, when designated by the
governor of Virginia. This fund may
then be withdrawn by order of the
treasurer of the Negro Historical &
Industrial association of Richmond,
Va., approved by the goveruoz of the
state. The treasurer of the organiza-
tion will be required to give bond to
the Negro Historical & Industrial as-
sociation, as the governor may direct
or approve. No bond will be required
by the United States, the disburse-
ment of the fund will not be done
under federal supervision, and no ac-
counting to the federal government
will be exacted,
‘This outlines the procedure set down
by W. W. Warwick, acting controller
of the treasury, in response to the
inquiry of the secretary of the treas-
ury as to the manner of withdrawal
of the fund “rom the treasury, and as
to what) bond, if any, the disbursing
agent should be required to execute to
the United States, and how the money
should be accounted for. It is stated
in the reference that Giles B. Jack-
son, president of the negro organiza-
tion, has given notice of the appoint
ment of a disbursing agent.
Acting Controller Warwick points
out that the appropriation act provides
only for supervision and direction of
disbursethent of the fund by the gov-
ernment of Virginia. He also cites
the precedents, indicating the ab-
sence of any responsibility to give
bond or to account to the United
States for proper disbursement of the
appropriation.

SHORTER CHAPEL'S NOTES
Shorter Chapel will observe Church Attendance Day tomorrow, and the quarterly meeting will be held at the same time. It is earnestly hoped and expected that every Christian in this city will take some part in having all Denver go to church. Yes, go yourself, but by all means take your husband, children, relatives or neighbors with you—at any cost take some one with you.
It is also hoped that every person who went down the trail during the Billy Sunday campaign will join some church tomorrow. To put it off for a more convenient season is to go back and fall away from your Saviour.
Presiding Elder Ward will preach morning and evening, and Rev. Jas. Washington will deliver the quarterly communion sermon. Rev. Smith, the officers and members of Scott M. E. and of Campbell Chapel are expected to join us.
Our new choir will make its debut at the morning service with Miss Jessie Andrews rendering a favorite solo. Mr. Edward Saunders will render "Face to Face" in a tenor solo at the evening service. Miss Jennie M. Hicks will sing at the Sunday school hour also.
The consecrating meeting of the League tomorrow at 6:30 p. m. promises to be interesting. "The Work Verse" will be the topic. The monthly business meeting will be held Monday evening at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. R. C. Brown, 2646 Marion.
NOTES OF THE ZION BAPTIST CHURCH.
David E. Over. Minister.
Sunday is "Go to Church Sunday" for the whole city of Denver. Every man, woman and child is expected to attend divine worship at some church during the day. Zion is prepared to furnish the most delightful and inspiring program in the city. Special decorations, special music and special sermons will mark the day. Above all a hearty welcome will be extended to all. Every member of the church is requested to endeavor to bring some friend who is not a member of any church. It will be a good thing to canvass your neighborhood. "Bring them in."
This will be the "Home-Coming Day" after the great Sunday campaign. Every convert who has not already united with the church is urged to come tomorrow and take his place with the people of God. The rite of baptism will be administered at the close of the morning service.
The pastor will preach at the morning service from the subject, "The Economic Side of the Liquor Traffic." This question is the most vital, touching the interests of the state. Come and hear the presentation of indisputable facts before you vote.
The subject for the evening sermon is, "The War of Nations." We expect every seat in our great auditorium to be taken at each service, so come early.
Sunday, November 1, is Sunday School Rally Day. It is the annual day when the whole of our Sunday school will come together. Every department is striving to have full attendance. The parents will be there to see what the school means to the children. Don't fail to come.
Something new under the sun: a new perfume o dor: "Quintuple Vogue," at Elite Drug Store, 2100 Arapahoe St.

JEFF
HARVEY E. GARMAN.
Candidate for State Senator No Assembly Ticket.
Mr. Garman is well and favorably known in this city and has made an excellent record in both the eighteenth and nineteenth general assemblies. He is a man of clear convictions and can be relied upon to fight in the clear. This is vouchered for by all who have had an occasion to deal with him in his legislative capacities and if elected a fair deal is promised to all. This is a qualification that is much needed. You can't vote a straight party ticket under any circumstances. Put an X opposite his name. He has had the experience and will represent all the people.
JUDGE ATTERSON W. RUCKER
Candidate for Congress
Has always been the colored man's friend.
This statesman, when in Congress, secured the passage of a law setting aside public lands for homes for colored people.
Our people supported him six and four years ago, when he was elected to Congress, where he served the people faithfully.
His record in Congress was entirely satisfactory, and he should receive the votes of all those who believe in fair play, integrity in office and devotion by a Congressman to his duty.
Judge Rucker has made satisfactory
Judge Rucker has made satisfactory answers to all our questions.
Judge Rucker has done more for the old soldiers than any man who has even been in Congress. Through his efforts an annual fund of $822,000 was secured for veteran pensioners in Denver. Besides this work, which should endear him to the veterans, he also secured the passage of a bill providing for pensions for widows and orphans of Spanish-American war veterans. Made good in Congress.

VANCOUVER, B. C. NOTES.
Mrs. Sallie MacDonald returned last week from her visit to friends and relatives in Denver, Pueblo and Salt Lake City. She says Colorado is the only place to live. She was treated fine while on her visit.
Mr. A. Macintosh, the popular tonsorial artist, 311 Seymour street, writes from Hong Kong, China, that he left September 10 for Bombay, enroute to Marcales, France, with a party of troops for the war. He will be gone five or six months, but he will receive a copy of the Colorado Statesman in Calcutta or Bombay. The Colorado Statesman has been read in Hong Kong, China, the Philippines and in France. I will next have one in Melbourne or Sidney, Australia as I am acquainted on most every boat that sails for the Orient.
Mrs. Tom Ward returned from her visit to friends and relatives in Oklahoma last week. She was glad to get home. So was Tom.
Don't be surprised to see some old faces in Denver soon, as Christmas is better at home than in a foreign country. The First Baptist church on Prior street gave their Thanksgiving dinner on the twelfth of October. It seems odd, but in this country the government appoints the day of feat. The church and booths were handsomely decorated. The needle work and hand-painted articles were very fine. Your scribe missed getting a fine pillow as he was too slow. Mrs. Ross beat him by twenty votes. The dinner was grand and the deacons all enjoyed it, your scribe was busy watching the large turkey and everyone was watching him, but I got mine. Great credit should be given the ladies of the church that conducted the bazar and dinner. Elder Dr. Claybyrook is expected home next week. H. H.

Prices of foodstuffs are keeping wonderfully normal, but it behooves the housekeeper in these uncertain times to learn to make the very best use of the supplies which she obtains, so that she can supply nutritious meals at the lowest possible cost. Soups provide a great deal of nutrition, and in making them cooked bones, whether of meat or fish, make a really good basis for the stock, while the water in which vegetables have been cooked is also excellent for soups.
Into the stock pot can go all meat trimmings, bones, carcasses and giblets of poultry and game, all rinds and trimmings of tongue, ham and bacon, all liquids in which meat or vegetables have been cooked and all strippings of vegetables.
All these should be properly trimmed, rinsed and put into the stock pot. Simmer, but do not boll the soup. Ten minutes' rapid boiling will cloud a kettleful of soup. Do not add the vegetables until the last hour of cooking. The delicate flavoring of both meats and vegetables is easily driven off in the steam if they are boiled rapidly or cooked too long.
An easily prepared and cheap soup is made as follows: Place some bones, cooked or uncooked, in a pot with an onion, two carrots and two sliced turnips, two stalks of parsley, a little pepper and salt, and pour in sufficient water to just cover them all. Bring this all just to a boll, then draw the pan to the side of the fire, and let the contents simmer for two to three hours. Now cook and blend one-half an ounce of dripping and three-fourths ounce of flour. Strain the liquor on to this, stirring well. Then put all back on to the fire and simmer for fifteen minutes, and serve.
To make an inexpensive vegetable soup slice down half a carrot, half a turnip and one onion and fry them in one-half an ounce of clarified dripping for five minutes; then lift them out, make the fat hot again and fry in it one-half an ounce of flour until a brown color. Take the pan from the fire, add one and one-half pints of stock, stirring over the fire until it boils and is smooth, then put in the vegetables, a bunch of herbs and a little salt, and let all simmer until the vegetables are tender. Lift out the bunch of herbs and serve the soup.
This is a good onion soup: Peel and cut up rather small three good-sized onions and cook them in two ounces of dripping in a covered pan for one hour until tender, then moisten with one and a half pints of hot water in which a cauliflower or beans have been cooked or even plain water. Add some slices of bread cut diagonally and season with pepper and salt. Cover the pan again and let the contents simmer for at least an hour. Crush the onions through a sieve and just before serving gradually add a tablespoonful of grated cheese, stirring rapidly into the soup to blend.
Epicurean Croquettes
Soak a finnan haddle one hour, using milk and water in equal parts to cover, then put in oven and let stand for 30 minutes; drain and separate into flakes. There should be one and three-fourths cupfuls. Cook one tablespoonful of chopped shallot, two tablespoonfuls each of chopped green and red peppers in three tablespoonfuls of butter five minutes, add one-third of a cupful of flour and one cupful of milk. Stir in finnan haddle, add one-half teaspoonful of salt, one-fourth teaspoonful of paprika and a few grains of pepper. Cool, shape, crumb and fry.
Pickled Fish.
Cut the fish up into convenient pieces, rub them well with salt, and let them lie for a few hours. Then put in a pan with water to cover them and bring to a boil. When boiling move the kettle back where they will boil slowly from three to five minutes, but not longer, or the bits will fall to pieces. Lift the pieces out carefully and pack them in a crock, putting a thin layer of sliced onions between each layer of fish, and while still hot pour cold spiced vinegar over to cover them.
Sour Milk Johnny Cake
Two tablespoonfuls of butter and one cupful of flour mixed with one cupful of cornmeal; add half a cupful of sugar, half a teaspoonful of baking powder and half a teaspoonful of salt, one cupful of sour milk, and two well-beaten eggs. Turn the mixture into a well-buttered pan and bake in a hot oven. Sour cream may be substituted for sour milk.
Marquerites.
Whites of three eggs, one quart of peanuts (in shell), one teaspoonful vanilla, one and one-half or two cupfuls powdered sugar; beat whites of eggs very stiff, chop peanuts rather fine; mix all together and drop on saltine crackers, brown lightly in oven.
About Kid Gloves.
Always powder the inside of new gloves before wearing them, as it makes them easier to slip on. It also prevents the dye of colored ones from staining the hands.

THE WINE AND BEER TAX STATE BANK RESOURCES
ESTIMATED TO RAISE $200,000 IN DENVER DISTRICT.
Internal Revenue Office Busy Putting Provisions of War Measure in Force.
Denver.—The passage by Congress of the war revenue tax which, by virtue of a special emergency clause, went into effect at once, will impose in the Denver internal revenue district an additional tax on beer and wine of $200,000, according to Mark Skinner, internal revenue collector.
The local internal revenue office, just emerging from the complications of the income tax, will be plunged into even greater labors with the new revenue measure of the government.
One department will be devoted exclusively to the sale of documentary stamps, which the recent law requires on bonds, mortgages, contracts, etc., to make them valid. A special inspector will have to be detailed to examine each day the files, of the municipal county and state clerks to see that the law is being followed.
The most difficult thing, say the internal revenue men, is to educate the public up to the requirements of the new act.
Wife Tells Story at Killing Inquiry.
Denver.—The inquest over William R. Herbertson, contractor, who was shot and killed by George Quinn at 1045 West Fourteenth avenue, was held at the city morgue. Mrs. Herbertson, over whom the shooting occurred, and her son Frank, were the only witnesses. Quinn refused to testify and was taken to the West Side Court. He entered a plea of not guilty to the information charging him with murder, filed by the district attorney. Mrs. Herbertson testified that she had been intimate with Quinn and that she saw him the Friday night before he shot and killed her husband. The boy told the jury that he saw Quinn go into the room where his mother and father were sitting. He said Quinn was carrying a shotgun.
Cripple Creek.—The body of Enoch French, 101, pioneer prospector, who disappeared from the county hospital several weeks ago, after he had announced that he was going mining, was found in Rattlesnake gulch on Fourmile creek by Tim Wilson, a cattleman. French showed surprising strength when he left the hospital several weeks ago. A posse organized to bring him back could not find him after the aged man had been caught by hospital attendants and again eluded them. The body was found beside a stream which French had fordied six weeks ago. He leaves a daughter, Mrs. W. E. McMurray, of Denver.
Houston Barred in Office Race.
Denver.—Samuel R. Houston of Trinidad cannot have his name upon the ballot at the November election as a candidate for governor. The State Supreme Court affirmed the decision given by District Judge Allen, who ordered that the mandamus suit brought by Houston to compel Secretary of State Pearcey to put Houston's name on the ballot be dismissed. Arguments were made by attorneys in the case before Justices Musser, Hill and Gabbert, who comprise Department 1 of the tribunal.
Eaton Man Jailed After Shooting.
Eaton.—Carl Walton is in jail awaiting the result of shotgun wounds inflicted on George McVaw in a fight at Walton's home in East Eaton, where McVaw was living. McVaw received a charge of No.4 shot alleged to have been fired by Walton, in his back just above the hip. McVaw says that when Walton, after a dispute, appeared with the shotgun, he fled, having no weapon but a revolver that wouldn't work, and was ten feet from Walton when he was shot.
Catholics Buy Home
Greeley.—In anticipation of the erection of a parochial school building the Catholic Church of Greeley has purchased the Lemmon home and lots, at the corner of Ninth avenue and Twelfth street. The church owns furniture in the home and this will be used as a home for priests until the arrival of sisters who will have charge of the school.
Druggist Fined for Selling Liquor.
Pueblo.—The maximum fine, $300, was given Harry Rogers, who conducts a drug store at 2044 East Evans avenue, in Municipal Court, for selling liquor without a license.
Vice President in Denver
Denver.—Vice President and Mrs. Marshall were in Denver Monday where the vice president made a speech in the Auditorium.
Death Penalty for Oscar Cook.
Denver.—A verdict of murder in the first degree fixing the penalty at death, was returned by a jury against Oscar Cook, twice convicted slayer of Patrolman William McPherson and Andrew J. Lloyd in a saloon at Valverde the night of March 9, 1912.
Sunday Gets $10,000; Leaves Denver.
Denver.—Sunday's collections for Billy Sunday amounted to about $10,000, and he closed his revival and left the city for Des Moines, Ia.
TOTAL $54,323,039, ACCORDING TO COMMISSIONER'S REPORT.
Institutions Under Colorado Supervision Show Good Reserve Under Present Conditions.
Denver.—The total resources of the state and savings banks, private banks and trust companies in Colorado were $54,323,039.60 on September 12, according to an abstract of reports made by the institutions to E. E. Drach, state banking commissioner. The abstract includes the reports of 149 state and savings banks, thirty-seven private banks and twenty trust companies. It does not include the national banks, which are solely under the supervision of federal authorities.
The average reserve of the banks under the state commissioner's authority was 26.65 per cent, which is considered a good reserve under present conditions.
The resources of the state and savings banks were $22,464,053.37, of private banks were $2,906,324.61, and of trust companies were $28,953,661.6
The total capital stock of the institutions was $6,778,300, and their total reserve fund was $2,113,747.92. The individual deposits in the banks amounted to $18,971,329.91, and the total savings accounts to $15,936,830.53.
Fairchild Gets Utility Post.
Denver.—Claude W. Fairchild, secretary to Gov. E. M. Ammons, who went to Kansas to attend a family reunion on the occasion of his parents' golden wedding anniversary and his sister's silver wedding anniversary, has resigned from his position to accept appointment by the state public utilities commission as its first civil executive officer, empowered to inspect public utilities throughout the state and prepare evidence for actions looking to a reduction in rates. Fairchild will work out of Denver headquarters of the commission at present, under the direction of the commission and its attorney, John T. Barnett. C. G. Northup of Denver, who for twenty years was private secretary to the late United States Senator Henry M. Teller, has been named by Govoron Ammons to succeed Fairchild at the secretary's desk in the executive offices at the state house.
Expects 25,000 Autoists In 1915
Denver.—T. J. Ehrhart, state highway commissioner, told the members of the Denver Real Estate Exchange at their weekly luncheon that he believed there would be 25,000 foreign automobiles driven into Colorado next year; that they would bring an average of four people each; that they would stay thirty days and that the tourists would spend $12,000,000 in the state. "If the people thought a half-mill levy would produce another Cripple Creek, Leadville or San Juan mining district, they would all be in favor of it," he said.
Settles $1,000,000 Suit for $30,000.
Denver.—The government's $1,000,000 suit against the Denver & Rio Grande railroad for 90,000,000 feet of timber alleged to have been illegally cut by the road in thirteen counties of the state, was dismissed by Federal Judge Robert E. Lewis in the District Court. The railroad paid $30,000 in consideration of the settlement of the action.
MInt Coining Christmas Money.
Denver.—A million dollars' worth of gold pieces, each of a value of $2,500, are being made at the federal mint in Denver for the Christmas trade. Special minting of other gold coins for the holiday trade is also being done. The other denominations of coins which will be minted here are $5, $10 and $20. About $5,000,000 worth of each will be made.

Denver.—Adjutant. General Chase has accepted the resignations of Major Frank A. Perry of the First cavalry squadron and of First Lieutenant W. A. Spangler, acting adjutant. Captain B. H. Brooks of Troop C is promoted to major to fill the vacancy left by Major Perry, and Lieutenant Finch is now in command of Troop C.
Sergeant Summerhalter Wins Cup.
Denver.—The governor's cup was won by Sergeant J. L. Summerhalter, Company C, Second infantry, of Lamar, in the annual militia rifle shoot at the Golden range. The shooting was over the 200, 300, 600 and 1000-yard ranges. In the team match there were 120 starters. It was won by Company B, First infantry.
Check for Soldiers' Home.
Denver.—Governor Ammons has received from Moses Harris, general treasurer of the National Aid Society for disabled volunteer soldiers, a government check for $3,800 to be applied to the support of the Soldiers' and Sailors' home at Monte Vista for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 1914.

Shelley, inspector for the district, will have charge of the drills.

(Summary of Events.)
The battle for the Straits of Dover, one of the most sanguinary of the war, is continuing with unabated fury but thus far without either side gaining any decided advantage.
The Germans, who at terrible cost of life, succeeded late last week in crossing the Yser Canal, between Nieuwport and Dixmude, have not been able to make any further progress as the Allies, according to a report of the German general headquarters, are

Neither Side Gains.
Neither Side Gains.
It is the same further south, around Armenieries, Lille, La Bassee and Arres. The opposing armies are delivering fierce attacks, gaining or losing a few miles or less of ground with sacrifices of life that are appalling. The whole countryside fairly is reeking with the blood of thousands of killed or wounded. Both sides speak of the heavy losses they have imposed on their adversaries, but say nothing of their own dead or wounded, to fill the places of whom reinforcements are being brought forward.
The British fleet, which bombarded the German flank as they advanced along the coast, seem to have withdrawn. The Germans say this was because their artillery was beginning to reach the ships. The belief is expressed here, however, that the fleet will be able to render untenable German occupation of any part of the Belgian or French coasts. The opinion is also expressed here that the operations of the allied vessels in the North Sea, off the Belgian coast and in the vicinity of the Straits of Dover may cause the German fleet to come out and give battle.
Allies Hold Germans.
The crossing of the Yser apparently had only a moral effect, as the Germans were confronted by solid lines
---
STARVING BELGIANS
NEED RELIEF AT ONCE
Brussels.—Nearly 7 million people in Belgium face famine unless they receive help from the outside at once. The American minister to Belgium, Brand Whitlock, says that less than a two weeks' supply of food remains in the cities while conditions in the country districts are even worse. Though the Germans have seized the food in some cities for their soldiers, they still disclaim responsibility for feeding the
of allied troops and were prevented from advancing without overwhelming efforts further toward the Channel ports. The character of the country prohibits a rapid movement, as the land is cut up by canals, and two strong series of defensive works separate them from Dunkirk. To add to the trials of the troops engaged in the desperate fighting a short spell of fine weather has given place to another downpour of rain, which will convert the lowlands of Flanders into great lakes.
Five Nations in the Battle.
The fighting along the Belgian coast probably is the most picturesque battle ever fought. On shore the troops of five nations are fighting—the Austrians and Germans on one side, the French, Belgian and English on the other side. At sea British monitors, gunboats, destroyers and submarines are fighting side by side with French warships, while at the same time they are being subjected to attacks by German submarines and airships.
Prepare Antwerp for Siege.
Prepare Antwerp for Siege.
It is clear that the Germans are putting Antwerp in a state of defense. In most of the important forts the Belgian guns have been replaced with German fortress artillery of the latest type. The bridge between Antwerp and Pays de Waes, which the warring Belgians damaged, has been repaired. Evidently the Germans seem determined to force the battle to an issue.
German Attack Severe.
According to trustworthy accounts fresh troops brought up by the Germans have enabled them to deliver attacks with increased vigor on the French right wing in Eastern France, where the battle has been of a ding-dong character, with alternate gains and losses.

No Change In Poland.
The German official report speaks again of the German offensive on Augustown, Russian Poland, which it declares is progressing. It reiterates that the battle near Ivangorod, although favorable to the Germans, remains undecided. North of this section the Russians claim to be still pursuing the Germans, who attempted an advance on Warsaw, and southward to have crossed the Vistula and driven the Austrians backward. In Galicia and in the Carpathians the Russians also claim to have broken down the Austrian offensive.
In the present battle on the River Vistula, from Warsaw south to the River Pilica, the Russians have scored an important victory in driving the Germans back and have captured many prisoners, besides guns and ammunition. But the defeated army, when it gets back to its selected position, can entrench and start another siege battle such as that which occurred on the River Aisne, in France. Southward of the Pilica the Germans still hold the River Vistula except in front of the fortress at Ivangorod, where they were driven back by attacks from that stronghold.
Austrians Active.

Berkman. Mr. Whitlock has had on hand only peasant's black bread for two weeks, and the supply of that is short. One hundred soup kitchens are feeding more than 100,000 of the needy in Brussels. Families formerly rich are discharging their servants because they are bankrupt. Noblemen may be seen slipping into the soup kitchens.
The factories are closed. Many stores remain open but have no business. The street cars are being operated but the railway train service has been suspended. The supplies of cof-
stroyed in the battles of Gallicia, has sprung into life again and is attacking the Russian left wing. The Austrians, however, apparently have found an impenetrable barrier at the River San, north of Jaroslau.
Heavy Guns at Tsing-Tau.
The Japanese naval general staff announces that the marine heavy artillery corps is engaged in the attack upon Tsing-Tau, and that a part of the Japanese fleet is keeping watch on the enemy's warships hovering about Hawaii.
Will This Country Help?
Reports to the Belgian legation at Washington of the miserable conditions among the inhabitants of the captured country, whose fields and storehouses have been ravaged and laid waste by four armies, have prompted the Belgian minister, Mr. Havenith, to redouble his efforts to obtain funds in the United States for the relief of his destitute people.
Open Way for Belgian Relief.
As a result of the urgent representations made to the foreign office by W. H. Page, the American ambassador, the British government has given its permission for the raising of the existing embargo for foodstuffs to the extent of allowing ships to depart for Holland with a quarter of a million dollars' worth of food bought by the American committee for the relief of Belgium.
Food for Belgians.
The American commission for Belgian relief has received from the Belgian minister in London one-half million dollars taken from the Belgian relief funds entrusted to the minister. The commission is now purchasing food and supplies with this money. Seven thousand frozen sheep contributed by the Australian colonies.

The Belgian minister has notified the commission that the shipment of supplies from the Brooklyn women's war relief committee and also the funds raised in the United States will be entrusted to the commission when it arrives.
Women and Babies Starve.
The food situation in Belgium is becoming absolutely critical. Already more than half a million persons are being assisted by means of bread lines, according to the American committee's report, there being more than three hundred thousand of these persons in Brussels alone. The supply of food for these bread stations, it is estimated, will not last more than a week longer. It is expected that the number of persons requiring relief will increase to a million within a month.
Back to Fighting Line.
Among the many thousands of Belgian refugees in England are large numbers of officers and men of the Belgian army, and the Belgian legation has opened a bureau in order to facilitate their return to active service with the army in the field. It has also established two recruiting stations, one in London and the other at Folkestone,
fee, tea, flour, rice and salt are practically exhausted.
Reports received by Minister Whittlock from Louvain, Liege and Namur, say that the conditions in those cities are even worse than they are in Brussels. Louvain has only a four days' supply of flour, while Liege has no flour at all. The peasants in many districts have been forced to exist on legumes, as the crops of beets and cabbages have been ruined.
The meat and milk supplies also have been cut off, the army having taken the cattle.
VILLA ORDERED MADERO'S DEATH
Do You Know That—
GEN. CARRANZA, IN A SIGNED STATEMENT, TELLS PRESIDENT WILSON.
180 SHOT IN MUTINY
UNITED STATES ENVOY IS AC CUSED OF PLOT TO AID REBELS IN MEXICO.
San Antonio, Tex.—General Carranza, in a signed statement received here Wednesday, accuses General Villa of having given an order for the execution of former President Madero on May 13, 1911.
IS PREPARED TO DO ALL KINDS OF
Carranza predicts a bloody strife if Villa is permitted to rebel. Among others things, the manifesto says:
"General Villa probably will forget that on May 13, 1911, following the capture of Juarez, General Villa and his then partner, Pascual Orozo, arrested the then provisional President of the republic, Francisco I. Madero, Villa himself called upon the soldiers to execute Madero.
"Villa, who now appears to champion the clergy, ought to remember that in every place he captured during the campaign he expelled the priests and closed the churches.
"Villa reproaches me for having issued 130,000,000 pesos in currency. I must state it was imperative that I should pay the costs of the administration and at the same time I took up all previous state and national issues so as to be able to have a control and check on our monetary system. Villa himself, in the state of Chihuahua, issued 50,000,000 or 60,000,000 pesos of state money. I desire to state in this connection that all of the custom house revenues of the state of Chihuahua as well as the internal revenues have been appropriated by Villa, without making an accounting to me as first chief."
Commercial, Fraternal, Church, Book and Stationery Jobs A SPECIALTY
Through Roberto V. Pesqueira of this city, Carranza's accredited diplomatic representative in the United States, Carranza sent a personal appeal to President Wilson and the State Department protesting against the activities of George C. Carothers and the friendliness of the United States for Villa. The statement was forwarded to Washington. The statement reads in part:
Ball and Concert Programs, Bill and Letter Heads, Calling Cards, Wedding Cards, Envelopes and Everything in the Printing Line Turned Out in the Neatest and Best Style Promptly on Short Notice.
"We have every reason to believe that the accredited representative of the American government (George C. Carothers) has sold out to Francisco Villa, alias Doroteo Arango.
"This is his true name. He has assumed the name of Francisco Villa only for reasons known to himself and history alone will tell what crimes his true name of Doroteo Arango may hide.
"At the moment that he was openly declaring friendship for the United States he was threatening to invade the nation at El Paso and declared to his closest advisers that he would conquer in a few months' campaign."

styles in gowns the waist line
Seems to be playing a game of “hide
and seek” or has altogether vanished,
still, for the benefit of conservative
women, models in which the blouse
appears are plentiful enough. Some
people hesitate to adopt entirely new
lines in costumes, no matter if the
new silhouette has much to recom-
mend it. The blouse, too, has held
its own because of its becomingness
and its incomparable practicability.
Out of eight gowns, in an opening dis-
play, four incorporate a blouse effect
in the bodice, and with authorities like
Lucille of New York and Doucet of
Paris to cite, no friend of the bloused
bodice need apologize.
In the picture an early design from
Antoine & Hubert shows the transi-
tion from the narrow to wider skirts,
and the long tunic, which may or may
not flare at the bottom. With the ad-
vance of the season the underskirt
has grown shorter and a disposition
to flare the tunic at the bottom: is
much more pronounced than has been
the case.
‘The dress pictured, made of reige,
gabardine or any of the lighter weight
woolens, will appeal to every woman
who is looking for something practi-
cal for dally wear. It is a comfortable
gown with the charm of modishness.
The underskirt {s a straight line

S ‘TYLES may come and styles may
go, but the lingerie blouse stays
right with the American woman from
one season to another, or she stands
right by it, In this regard her Declar-
ation of Independence has long ago
been made, Paris and Vienna may
declare the separate waist taboo, but
the American woman doesn't even
hear them; she goes on her way wear-
ing it
The lingerie blouse, or shirt waist,
or wash waist, (by all of which names
the same garment is called) changes
somewhat from season to season, as
a concession to prevailing fashions,
in lines and in decorative features.
‘That is, it may follow after the fads
of the hour as to length of sleeves,
collar or collarless style and general
outline of bodices. And it may ignore
these details and remain the long-
sleeved high-necked blouse of many
years’ good standing.
Considering this stability of the
wash waist it is worth while to make
it of strong fine material, and time
spent upon its embroidering ts not
thrown away. The finest @otton.
ries and linen are splendid perf :
ers when it comes to the durabii
test. The wear on waists really comes
fm the laundering. If this is done care-
model giving room for the natural
walking stride. It may be made yery
narrow in appearance when cut in the
short, fashionable length and _pro-
vided with Inverted plaits at each
side.
‘The tunic 1s cleverly managed with
a fairly broad panel at the front and
plaits a half inch wide about the
sides and back. The plaits are set on
to a yoke reaching to the thigh. A
broad sash emerges from the panel
at eagh side, where a finish of small
cloth-covered buttons appears. The
dress fastens with snap fasteners un-
der the row of buttons at the left
side.
The skirt is attached to the bloused
bodice, which {s cut at the front into
a long and wide “V" shape. This
terminates in a point where the bod-
ice is fastened under a large covered
button having a simulated button-
hole, with a snap fastener. The bod-
ice is cut away below this fastening,
showing the lingerie waist worn under
it.
One of the good features of this
gown is noticeable in the provision for
an ample touch of white next the
face and in the sleeve. One of the
new yestee and collar combinations
may be worn instead of a white waist
and cuffs to match used in the finish
of the sleeves.
fully and in the right way they will
stand it.
‘Two very fine waists are shown in
the picture. Fine voile and mar
quisette are the fabrics chosen for
them. The hard-twisted threads are
like infinitesimal wires for strength and
firmness and the materials transpar-
ent and supple.
To make up with and decorate rich
fabrics strong handmade laces and
hand embroidery cannot be improved
upon, Irish crochet, cluny and home-
made crochet or knitted laces will
last as long as the fabrics. Next to
these the best of val laces will rank
in point of wearing quality.
‘The waists pictured here are made
yery elegant by fine and elaborate
hand embroidery. Tho designs are
intricate and a lavish amount of work
appears on each of them. In the
walst of volle the tiniest of cord
tucks are run. ‘he collar {s of Irish
crochet lace. The long sleeves are
finished with embroidery.
‘The second waist of marquisette is
simpler but quite rich enough for any
®ecasion. The embroidery on this
model 1s put on in bands, the flowers
‘being raised on the surface. Embroid-
ery of this kind requires padding.
