THE STATESMAN. ORGAN OF THE COLORED PEOPLE IN COLORADO, WYOMING, MONTANA, UTAH AND NEW MEXICO. THE END OF THE LANE Bruce Grit draws a picture of the torturous paths of political leadership. VOL. XVI A DREAM (QUADRENNIAL.) There are a great many people identified with the Negro race who are carried away with the idea that they are solving the "problem." I met a colored gentleman recently, who told me wtih great glee that he and his wife had been the guests of a certain white political leader and his wife, at a dinner, and then this colored brother hugged himself, metaphorically speaking, and looked upon me pityingly while he related the causes leading up to this wonderful social (?) conquest. --- How easy of solution seems this problem to those who imagine that it can be disposed of in this way. . . . Just before they partook of the hospitality of these big white people there had been an interesting discussion in the parlor between ma and pa, Miss Hortense and her big brother, Paul, as to the wisdom of inviting these "darkies" to dinner; the possible effect it would have upon them socially if it State Historian & Natural History Society COLORED PEOPLE IN COLORADO, DENVER, COLOR WILD THE LANE Draws a picture of truths of political DENVER, COLORADO, FRIDAY, APRIL 27, 1906. became known, and whether, if pa insisted on having them as guests, Hortense should see them in the parlor or sit at table with them. Paul thought it would be best to absent himself entirely and to dine at his club. Hortense decided that she would go out for a drive and dine at a friend's house, since pa was so determined. And ma—well, ma, like pa, was somewhat of a politician, and voted with him in favor of dining the "darkies," sapiently observing "that it didn't happen every day, and as the major had a point to make, she thought he ought to make it, and explain why after he landed the persimmon." And so the "brother" and his wife appeared on the scene in due course of time and were made welcome in this palatial home. The hostess played her part well, and so skillfully that her darker-hued sister felt that there was no social barrier between them. The major took charge of his black brother and, with the aid of a cold bottle and a box of perfectos, which --- --- were brought to his study by a tall, good-looking Irishman in livery, he worked his rabbit foot on "Mr. Brown" so cutely that he felt that if the millennium had not already come, it was on its way. Hence the black troops surrendered—capitulated, gave in. When the state convention met a few weeks thereafter to choose delegates to the national convention to nominate candidates for the presidency, Major Bungum, on account of his great popularity with the colored delegates, was elected one of the delegates, and by such an overwhelming majority that when the selection of the delegates had been completed he was unanimously chosen by his colleagues chairman of the delegation. One of the most indefatigable workers in his behalf in and out of the convention was our friend, Mr. Brown, who religiously believed that he had found the key to the problem. No man in the convention, or in the city in which it was held, looked wiser or more self-contained than this Mr. Brown. He seemed to have a sort of contemptuous pity for the black men among whom he mingled, because they did not have the confidence and the ear of a potential political quantity like the major, of whom he familiarly spoke as "my old man." Well, the major held four aces and the joker, in the national convention which nominated the candidate for President, and at the supreme moment he threw the votes of his delegation to the candidate who wanted the nomination the worst, and he was nominated in a whirl, the thirty votes from the state which the major represented being cast solidly for the candidate. This was a master stroke and was noted by the delegates from the smaller states who had been dividing their votes. When the realized what had happened they made haste to get in out of the rain and almost fell over each other in the rush to record their votes on the final ballot for the winning candidate. The major, on rising to second the . . . . . . --- --- NO. 40 nomination of the candidate, took occasion to pay a grateful compliment to the loyalty and fidelity of "our faithful black allies," and to mention by name Mr. Brown, whom he said had rung true and made the deed square with the word every time in this contest that this preliminary victory—the choice of an acceptable standard bearer of our grand old party which we are now about to second will be largely due to the patriotic devotion of our colored fellow citizens to the principles of the great party of Lincoln and Grant. As he said these words, he struck an attitude and faced his delegation. Mr. Brown mounted a chair and waved a diminutive American flag and his hat simultaneously. The convention, taking the cue, let out a volume of applause which shook the rafters. (Curtain.) . . . After an exciting campaign and an assorted variety of ante-election hot air expelled with a mental reservation to the black brethren, the candidate woke up on the morning after election to find himself panoplied in all the habiliments and power of the President of a great nation. He had won the horse chestnut in a canter, and he laid in a stock of that fruit for distribution among the faithful when they came to offer congratulations and to find out "where they were at." . . . The major was a big man—the man who had turned the trick; and there were rumors in plenty as to what he would get. Some said he would go into the new Cabinet, others that he would get the English mission, and still others that he would be given the collectorship of the port in his state, where he could take care of his friends. --- The black brethren's appetites for office were tolerably good also, and they felt (and with reason) that they ought to have some of the spoils of the victory, so they got together and arranged a monster dinner in honor of Mr. Brown, and laid their plans for an assault upon the executive with a view to capturing a few fat and juicy plums. One of the speakers at the dinner had Continued on page twelve THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. <TD at : (wa \ Lae OGRA . ps Mean We WY) fy i eee ff | f es ~~] ee eatery (2S UNI) pa re sere MEIN ar.

The End of the Lane. committed to memory the speech of the major seconding the nomination of the candidate and recited it with telling effect. At its conclusion the health of the major was drunk in bumpers of champagne, and Mr. Brown, his personal and confidential friend, was not forgotten. --- Through the good offices of Mr. Brown, the major was induced to telegraph the President, asking for the privilege of an interview with him by a delegation of colored citizens, "constituents of mine, who desire to lay before you certain matters of vital interest to them." . . . In due course of time the private secretary replied to the major by letter that it would give the President great pleasure to receive his colored friends at the White House at the time indicated in his dispatch. --- The correspondence was published in the local paper and the next day Mr. Brown bought a new silk hat and a rumor got out that he was slated for the Haytian mission. . . . The delegation reached Washington on schedule time, and learned on their arrival, through the daily papers, that the President on the day previous had appointed the major one of the commissioners on the part of the United States to examine the Klondke boundary line at a salary of $10,000 per annum. --- At 2 o'clock the delegation found themselves lolling on leather-covered chairs and sofas in the waiting room at the White House. At 2:15 they were ushered into the presence of the "mighty great," who received them in the library. The doorkeeper arranged them in a semi-circle, and introduced the spokesman, Mr. Brown, whom he knew, who, in turn, presented his associates. After a few commonplaces anent the weather, etc., etc., Mr. Brown unbosomed himself in a few well-chosen remarks, in which he set forth the claim of his race to official consideration, etc., etc. The President, standing with one foot on a rung of a chair and with one hand in his pocket told them that he had somehow gotten the impression that the colored men who worked and voted for him in the last campaign had done so from patriotic, not mercenary, THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO motives. He himself was a Republican from principle. He had not sought the office to which he had only recently been elected, it had sought him. He could not undertake to find places for everybody who had voted for him and who wanted an office. That was not his business. He believed, indeed, he knew, that his administration would deal fairly with all the party workers, and he personally would have great pleasure in appointing to office any A DREAM—TWO worthy and competent colored man who had the support and endorsements of the party leaders who were the best judges of the competency of these men for the arduous and exacting duties of public office. Colored men should be very sure before demanding official recognition for members of their race that the men they select are qualified in every way for the positions they seek. He believed that the colored race was entitled to some recognition at the hands of the party, still he thought that it would be a most excellent thing for colored men to acquire for themselves, and for their children, education that will fit them for the great and responsible duties of citizenship and office holding. Colored men must stand on their merits for whatever recognition they are to get from any party. They must not get the idea that because they vote our ticket they must be rewarded for doing their duty as good citizens by appointments in the public service, etc. After the gentleman from Indiana had delivered himself of this speech he intimated that the interview was closed by resuming his seat at the desk and diving into a batch of state papers. Mr. Brown looked dazed and said: "Good afternoon, Mr. President." His colleagues, ditto. Doorman Loeffler entered the room and announced that the British minister was without. "Show him in at once. Oh, good afternoon, gentlemen," he said, as the retreating form of the last colored delegate glided out of the door. . . . There is no use to point to the moral here. This is the usual way these politico-social affairs end. The majors and colonels generally capture the black troops, boots and all, and keep them outside of the breastworks until hunger or madness superinduced by disappointment drives them to desperation and revolt. Most any old veteran politician will recognize the picture I have tried to paint. BRUCE GRIT, Konkers, New York, April 16, 1906. Miss M. COWDEN. Hair Dressing Shampooing, Cutting and Curling.

According to a consular report it is not the so-called leaf aluminium, and is said to possess very favorable qualities for preserving articles of food, for which it is used as a covering. Chemical analysis has proved that aluminium paper contains but few foreign substances; occasionally it may contain up to 2 per cent of iron, but never any arsenic or other poisonous metals. Hence it appears that the powdered aluminium used for the manufacture of aluminium paper is relatively pure. Attention "The Statesman" Imprint on your Job Printing Is a sign of Excellence.

Cardinal Manning used to tell the following story of his friend, Bishop Bramstone, who seems to have been a wit as well as an eminent ecclesiastic: One day a member of his flock approached him—whether in earnest or not does not appear—with the remark that he wanted a wife, and he added the usual modest conditions that she must be young, rich and pretty. The bishop answered him upon the instant. "You are mistaken," said he. "My name is Bramstone, not Brimstone. I do not make matches." Always Stauncn And True Always Stauncn And True The Denver Republican has always avoided the fallacies and knaveries of yellow journalism, and its steadily increasing Circulation proves conclusively that its policy of telling the plain Truth without exaggeration or misrepresentation, standing fast for the Right, it heartily approved with growing force by the intelligent Public to which it appeals. To read it is a liberal Education, and the citizen who goes without it does a positive harm to himself, to his family, and to the community. In no other way can the investment of 2 1/2 cents per day for that is all The Republican costs any subscriber-bring such rich results in that Knowledge which is both Power and Pleasure.

FORD'S HAIR POMADE Formerly known as "OZONIZED OX MARROW" SO STRAIGHTENS KINKY or CURLY HAIR that it can be put up in any style desired consistent with its length. Ford's Hair Pomade was formerly known as "OZONIZED OX MARROW" and is the only safe preparation known to us that makes kinky or curly hair straight, as shown above. Its use makes the most stubborn, harsh, kinky or curly hair soft, pliable and easy to comb. These results may be obtained from one treatment; 2 to 4 bottles are usually sufficient for a year. The use of Ford's Hair Pomade ("OZONIZED OX MARROW") removes and prevents dandruff, relieves itching, invigorates the scalp, stops the hair from falling out or breaking off, makes it grow and, by nourishing the roots, gives it new life and vigor. Being elegantly perfumede and harmless, it is a toilet necessity for ladies, gentlemen and children. Ford's Hair Pomade ("OZONIZED OX MARROW") has been made and sold continuously since about 1888, and label, "OZONIZED OX MARROW", was registered in the United States Patent Office, in 1874. In all that long period of time there has never been a bottle returned from the hundreds of thousands we have sold. FORD'S HAIR POMADE remains sweet and effective, no matter how long you keep it. Be sure to get Ford's, as its use makes the hair STRAIGHT, SOFT, and PLIABLE. Beware of imitations. Remember that Ford's Hair Pomade ("OZONIZED OX MARROW") is put up only in 50 ct. size, and is made only in Chicago and by us. The genuine has the signature, Charles Ford. Press on each package. Refuse all others. Full directions with every bottle. Price only 50 cts. Sold by druggists and dealers. If your drug-gist or dealer can not supply you, he can procure it from his jobber or wholesale dealer or send us 50 cts. for one bottle postpaid, or $1.40 for three bottles or $2.40 for six bottles, express paid. We pay postage and express charges to all points in U. S. A. When ordering send postal or express money order, mention this paper. Write your name and address plainly to THE OZONIZED OX METROW CO.

Dundee is the only port in the British isles that owns whaleships. Toward the end of the century before last nearly all the east-coast ports had whalers of their own. London had thirty-four ships. The falling off of the industry is due chiefly to the scarcity of "right" whales; but the turning point of the decay was taken when coal gas was discovered and there was a fall in the importance of oils as illuminants. But each season Dundee sends her whaling fleet to the Arctic. So few are "right" whales within the circle now that the Dundee experts know them all, it is said. Wags aver that the Dundee harpooners have names for each one of them. Declined With Thanks. A keeper was cleaning the hyenas' cage at Hall by the Sea, England. One of the animals improved the opportunity to turn upon the man in an ugly mood. The keeper promptly defended himself, and, to teach the animal manners, gave it a drubbing until it slunk into a corner. One of the spectators, a dear old lady, then remonstrated with the keeper and thought he had acted cruelly. The man stepped out of the cage, and, advancing to the lady, said: "P'raps, mum, you'd like to come inside and manage him!"
