XVII COLORADO News CRIPPLE CREEK, COLO. Mrs. Emma McCullough wishes to say to her friends who do not know where to find her, that she is still at the Welty block, room 5. J. T. Thrower and wife, who for the past six years have resided in this city, and one of the most prominent families in social circles that the camp ever afforded, left for Denver Monday, where they will buy a beautiful home. Their many friends in this city regret their departure. Mrs. J. C. Canty is very sick at her home on Warren avenue. Many social functions were given last week in honor of the Throwers. Among those that entertained were Mesdames Cotwell, Graves and Deane. Rev. John Turner made a business trip to Pueblo last week. Mrs. George Cotwell entertained at a very private dinner party Saturday at 6 o'clock. Covers were laid for six. Rev. E. A. Reynolds left last week to take charge of the Baptist Church in Pueblo. Rev. Reynolds is a Christian man of much honor, and the church at this place will miss him greatly. A dinner which for elaborate effect has not been surpassed in this city for months, was given at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Graves, 111 Spicer street, Sunday. The event was an ante-nuptial one to several friends of Mr. and Mrs. Graves. At the appointed time the invited guests gathered DENVER, COLORADO, FRIDAY, JUNE 1, 1906.

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 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 perfumed and harmless, it is a toilet necessity for ladies, gentlemen and children. Ford's Hair Pomade ("OZONIZED OX MARROW") has been made and sold continually since about 1858, 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 ensures the hair is STRAIGHT, SOFT, and PLIABLE. Because of limitations, 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, as Ford's Pomade on each package. Refine all other. Full directions with every bottle. Price only 50 cts. Sold by druggists and dealers. If your drugist 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 $1.45 for three bottles or $2.50 for six bottles, express paid.

The Denver Republican has al- ways avoided the fallacies and knaveries of yellow journalism, and its steadily increasing Circula- tion proves conclusively that its policy of telling the plain Truth without exaggeration or misrepre- sentation, standing fast for the Right, is 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 commu- nity. In no other way can the invest- ment of 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.

There is one youth on the northside who will never again enjoy the somewhat doubtful pleasure of killing flies if his mother can reach him first. During the summer she purchased a brush and George had often seen her killing flies on the windows. The other day she chanced to be near the library, when she heard a crash. Hastening into the room she discovered George looking in wonderment at a hole in the window, from which radiated cracks in every direction. "George, what are you doing?" demanded the mother, almost tearfully. "Tilin' flies, mother," was the innocent reply as the little fellow exhibited a substantial hammer.—Pittsburg Dispatch. A Good Check. A bank cashier showed the other lay a check indorsed as follows: Pay to the order of ——; I know that my Redeemer liveth; George ——." laid he: "This is not the first time we have handled such an indorsement. Whenever our friend has a eance with convivial companions and poses a few plunks at a $5 limit, he invariably inserts the 'redeemer' feature." Respectable. A curious idea of female respectability prevails among some of the Koravar tribés. A woman who marries seven men successively, one after another, either after the death of her husbands or after divorce, is considered to be a respectable lady, and is called Pedda Boyisari. She takes the lead in marriages and other religious ceremonies.—Times of India. We know a man who says he has absolutely nothing to be proud of, except that never in his life did he twist an innocent remark into something vulgar. That ought to get him into the good place when he dies, though. The brand that's always good" xter's Bullhead 5 CENT CIGAR ter Cigar Co., Denver.

OF RELIGION THE MICROBE OF PREJUDICE- HOW IT BITES. Mrs. Elizabeth B. Grannis of New York has committed the unpardonable sin of enacting the role of a practical Christian, by taking into her home a little Negro girl, Christian League Woodyear, treating her like a real hu- man being, giving her an opportunity to develop and expand morally and mentally and providing the means whereby these objects can be attained. Christian League Woodyear'’s parents very foolishly allowed themselves to be born black, and herein they made the mistake of their lives. Mrs. Grannis, a lovely Christian character, moved by the loftiest im- pulses and a sincere desire to do the will of the Master, who said: “Suffer little children to come unto Me and forbid them not, for of such is the kingdom of heaven,” took this little Negro waif wheh it was only nine months old and adopted it into her own family, surrounding it with all the com. forts of a Christian home and assuring it of a future which few poor little black girls are permitted. Here she is taught by precept and example everything that a little girl ought to know in order to become a good and useiul woman. She {s not being raised as a servant, nor encouraged to despise and ignore her own race. She is sim ply being given a chance which so few little colored girls have to grow and develop the latent talents which God has implanted in the breasts of all His children, black and white alike. Free dom to expand without fear and with out the slavish feeling which robs the mind of independence, destroys the in dividuality and hampers and stunts the growth of that thing we call man hood and womanhood, little Christiar League Woodyear, as I have sald ‘knows that she is a member of the black race, but the fact that she i: does not militate against her in the home of good Mrs. Grannis, whose old fashioned notions as to the oneness o the human family do not harmonize with the modern accepted ideas of lat ter-day Christians, who find it not ¢ difficult matter to love Jesus and Hi: black and colored children in the ab stract. Of course, these new conceptt of Christian charity (love) and broth erhood are absolutely out of harmon} with the ethics of the New Testament but it must be borne in mind that the New Testament in American Christian churches is always subordinate te American Christian prejudice when ever it trenches upon the social life of American Christians. ‘They reserve to themselves the right to construe the text in order to make it conform te what it is popularly believed to mean, and they draw the line against any sort of intercourse with black people on terms of equality. The doctrine that God is our Father and man our brother is regarded as dangerous and mischievous, in that it opens the door to social interminglng of the races, which, to their way of thinking, is a mistaken policy. So they establish white churches for white people, preach a white Jesus, who was really brown or tan-colored; sing of white angels and dream of Heaven as a place where white Christians who have kept the faith, and the Negro in his place on ‘earth, will rule forever and forever. Beautiful dream, but it is said dreams go by contraries. True Christianty is not founded on either prejudice or bigotry, but on love te God and love to man, and no one is ¢ true Christian who says he loves Go¢ while in his heart he loathes and de spises the least of His creatures whe have favor in His eyes. How Amer ican Christians can harmonize thei race prejudice with their Christianity and still be consistent is one of the greatest puzzles with which a black man has to wrestle. The exhibition o! intolerance and all uncharitablenes: displayed by the persecutors of Mrs Grannis because of her attitude in de fense of her faith in the teachings o the Bible, is one of the saddest com mentaries imaginable on the genuine ness of the religion of the men wh have taken the initiative in this un holy crusade against her. Their ar guments are both untenable and illog ical; their action is as unworthy o | prie men as it is disgraceful, an it is as disgusting to other Christian: who know the truth as it is cowardl; | ana brutal in its ferocity.

The test of Christian- ity is works, not words. Mrs. Gran- nis’ life is full of good works and noble deeds and she will be longer re- membered by posterity than all the hollow-hearted hypocrites rolled into one who have cast odium upon the Christian religion by their narrow, bigoted, prejudiced and intolerant at- titude toward this good woman, who has shown only kindness to the race which gave asvlum to the infant Jesus when Herod sought His life and helped Him bear the cross up the ragged heights of Calvary, where He died to make men free. May the influence of His unselfish sacrifice help to emancl- pate the soul of the white Christians of America from the slavery of preju- dice; help them to see with clear vision that God is no respecter of per- sons, and to realize that the people everywhere whom they do not know are as good as those they do know. Mrs. Grannis is armed with the truth and is invincible and invulnerable to the petty and puerile atempts to be- little her motives and to injure her character by insinuation and innuendo, born of a desire to obscure other truths hurled at them, which her ‘calumniators and defamers have neither discredited nor explainea away.

Those present were: Mesdames Mapps, Langon, Warfield, Estes and Woodard; Misses Hines, Price and Dora Newman; Messrs. Holland, Jones, Newman, Arthur Newman and Ross. On last Tuesday evening all Grand Junction society people were out in response to invitations issued by the Coronation Art Club for their first annual reception at Odd Fellows' hall, which was beautifully and artistically decorated in pink and green ribbons palms and cut flowers being used in trimming the hall.

San Pelipe day was duly observed Sunday by the native citizens of old town. A large number of people always congregate to watch their maneuvers and to be entertained by the programme that is arranged for the occasion. The sights are very interesting for those who have never been among the natives on San Pelipe day. The excursion from Santa Fe brought in several hundred people, who spent the day in merriment and pleasure. Many of them visited friends in the city. Among those who came down were Mr. and Mrs. William Parsons, Mr. and Mrs. Kerr and family, Miss M. Hardin, James Grogin, John Grass, Algie Ernest and Elsie Slaughter and George Parsons. There will no doubt be an excursion from this city to Santa Fe in the near future, when Albuquerqueans will return the visit.

DESCRIPTION Made in all sizes. It is lively and easy riding, very durable and lined inside with a special quality of rubber, which never becomes porous and which closes up small punctures without allowing the air to escape. We have hundreds of letters from satisfied customers stating that their tires have only been pumped up once or twice in a whole season. They weigh no more than an ordinary tire, the puncture resisting qualities being given by several layers of thin, specially prepared fabric on the tread. That "Holding Back" sensation commonly felt when riding on asphalt or soft roads is overcome by the patent "Basket Weave" tread which prevents all air from being squeezed out between the tire and the road thus overcoming all suction. The regular price of these tires is $8.50 per pair, but for advertising purposes we are making a special factory price to the rider of only $4.80 per pair. All orders shipped same day letter is received. We ship C.O.D. on approval. You do not pay a cent until you have examined and found them strictly as represented. We will allow a cash discount of 5 per cent (thereby making the price $4.55 per pair) if you send FULL CASH WITH ORDER and enclose this advertisement.

"Just look at that line of young idiots. Ice cream soda at this time of day!" "They seem to stand it pretty well," returned the other, looking at the bunch of schoolgirls indicated, every one of whom was bright of eye and rosy of cheek. "Wait and see," said his companion. "The men aren't much better, either." "Well, what's the matter with that?" queried the cheerful one. "Humph!" grunted the other. "What will you have?" "Lithia water; and you'd better come to lunch with me." "Lunch? I haven't eaten lunch for three years. Here, boy, give me bromo seltzer with ammonia in it." And he couldn't understand why the cheerful young man laughed. Irrepressible. "Do you think there is any further revenue to be drawn from impolite personal journalism?"

No discussion of the "race problem" strikes at the root of the matter that does not deal largely with the problem of employment. Race prejudice is only a method whereby white workmen keep down the competition of colored men. It has no existence where whites do not compete. The growing population, the increasing ability of the Negro artisan argue for greater prejudice and at the same time by kind Providence furnish the remedy because the commercial spirit loses sight of color and all else but results the keener competition is. Therefore it is the part of good sense for the Negro to meet conditions by fitting himself for greater usefulness. Herein lies our hope. Mental bias is not done away with at the will of the individual. Years must elapse under the most favorable conditions for it to disappear. Argument and reason persuade the intelligence. Even in this country the law, which is the sum total of common sense, recognizes that all men are equal. But to make this law living fact, requires time. So while there should be no letting up on the necessity of a proper understanding between the races, the advantage of proper training of our own people should be enforced the more. Denver has many places open to Negroes for employment. With new arrivals continually, the opportunities remain. At the same time we have a large unemployed class. This is the weakness of our industrial position. We can not avail ourselves of such places as are open for we have no adequate intelligence bureau and our lack of organization makes us powerless to make new places. Gangs of Negroes could be employed in the great enterprises of the state if we could give the promoters the assurance that the supply of men would be kept up. Race prejudice is dead when we are so incorporated in the working millions that our labor is not distinctive in its product, and when we can supply all the help needed in given enterprises. We have tried politics, education and money to bring about the results. It is possible to so combine our aspirations after all three that we will fit into this nation better by making our aim the ideal worker in the various activities of brain and hand. The recent debate in Congress, in which the race question came up in THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. MS. $1.00 Three months. 50 colorado, as second class mailmatter. reference to the rate bill, has set Negroes to wondering what next. The race press has been strongly agitated over the apparent willingness of northern senators to acquiesce in the discrimination practiced in the South in "Jim Crow" cars. The Foraker amendment, which only demanded that persons paying equal money should have equal accommodations, is practically an indorsement of the South's treatment of Negroes, for the letter of the law in discriminating states it as positive on that point and is disregarded with impunity and the national statute would fare no better in the hands of the Supreme Court which, permits present conditions. On the whole, the brother in black is waking up to the fact that his salvation rests more in his own hands and that he is foolish to expect white senators to do for him what he has not the brain and courage to demand for himself. Piercing a Thick Hide. "No, it's my treat," insisted Nuritch, "I kin afford it better'n you fellers kin. I guess you don't know how much I'm worth, do you."

MOORE, Sec. --- A QUEER LYNCHING VISITORS TO DENVER Will appreciate the cleanliness the expert workmanship and most of all the artesian water used exclusively in ORAN C. GOENS' BARBER SHOP 1226 EIGHTEENTH ST. There was a lynching down in Georgia last week. In some respects it was out of the ordinary, not because of the way in which the accused was killed, but because of circumstances surrounding the alleged cause of the killing. The mob was just as orderly as any other mob and fired as many bullets into the body of the prisoner as were carried in the magazine of their rifles. The sheriff and his posse, in accordance with an ancient and honored custom, arrived on the scene just after the mob had dispersed and the ears of the victim had been clipped off as souvenirs. The same old story of a confession is told and in every respect the last part of the affair tallies with similar occurrences. But it was, as has been said, certain peculiarities of the alleged cause leading up to the lynching that proved the most interesting of all the related details of the lynching. We might forego telling them ourselves and let them be told in this special dispatch to a local newspaper edited by John Temple Graves: "Macon, Ga., May 16.—The recent lynching of the Negro Wommack at Eastman by an infuriated mob has brought out a new development to the crime of the Negro. It seems that he had been accustomed to assaulting Mrs. Pope, and had threatened to kill her if she made any outcry.

The sheriff, as soon as he saw the name signed to the letter, recognized that Mrs. Pope was a good white woman and of good standing. He immediately organized a party and started out at night to locate the Negro. While on the way there he heard rifle shots and, on approaching the place from whence they came, discovered the mob at its work. He has written a complete account of the horrible affair to Marshal White at Macon."

The very fact that "Marshal White thought the letter a joke" would seem to show how unusual a thing it must have been. Marshal White lives many miles from the scene. There have been crimes and crimes and lynchings galore, but this one at Eastman is the most mysterious yet recorded.—New York Age. Difference in Creeds. "I ran across two new sects up in Minnesota, a few days ago," said the returned traveler. "In a village of a few hundred people I saw two large churches.

WISDOM'S WHISPERS. A man usually estimates his value according to a scale of his own making. When a man undertakes to prove his importance he is inclined to over-step the mark. Men speak of women's vanity as something which is part of every woman's make-up. When a woman says she is of little consequence she does not expect she will be taken at her word. Many commanding men are easily controlled by those who seem to be other than commanding. The woman who thinks she can manage her husband's affairs never makes known how she would do it.
