THE STATESMAN OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS FOR US We must lay plans now if we would be considered after election---The past has been unsatisfactory and our own grit and brain is the measure of our future: FRANKLIN'S PAPER VOL. XVIII OPPORTUNITY We must lay plans now if after election---The p tory and our own gr ure of our future: With every interest in the state preparing to wage bitter warfare in its own behalf at the coming conventions of the two great parties, with Democrats making overtures such as have never before been made to win over the Negro vote or at least weaken its allegiance to the Republican party, and with the Republican party in a crisis wherein a friend is a friend indeed, it is time for colored citizens to consider what they want. Our plaint has been frequent that we have been slighted. In many cases it was justified. But constructive statesmanship is necessary to right wrongs, and it is to that task that Negro leadership is called at this time. Fair-minded men are compelled to agree with the statement of the Nlagara movement that: "The failure of the Republican party in Congress at the session just closed to redeem its pledge of 1904 with reference to suffrage conditions in the South seems a plain, deliberate and premeditated breach of promise and stamps that party as guilty of obtaining votes under false pretense." Remiss as the national organization has been, it has been no worse than the state and local divisions of it in Colorado. The Statesman has spoken at various times of the bad conditions prevailing, has criticised the making of promises to our people by the party without a reasonable delivery of the goods. But, granting all this, we come to the alternative that no better friend is offered elsewhere. In some slight degree locally, and now in a more general way, Democracy is bidding for Negro votes, yet it is not mere sentiment that binds the race to the Re --- State Historian & Natural History Society DENVER, COLORADO, FRIDAY, AUGUST 31, 1906. publican party; it is because of slavery and the reconstruction that we abhor Democracy. The labor conditions in the South that have made peonage possible, the subservience of the courts to popular prejudice that makes the life and property of a Negro the sport of any mob, the loss of the ballot in states which are dominated by the Democratic party, and the insulting and humiliating restrictions that are placed on us not alone in the South, but even in the North, by men claiming fealty to that party, are not ghosts of the past. Real issues—negative ones, it is true—are responsible for our party allegiance. In the light of the active measures of Democracy to injure us, good politics if not justice ought to make the Republicans take up our cause. We assert and are convinced that statistics will bear out the statement, that one-third of the Negro vote is staying at home. It is a hard choice between an enemy and an indifferent friend. One does not know whether to fly into the arms or the former to punish the latter or merely go half way and do nothing. While granting the unworthiness of the Republican party in Colorado from our standpoint to receive anything at our hands, we hesitate at this time to go over to Democracy despite its flattering promises. They may be made in good faith and might be kept, but because of sentiment, if you please, we believe that the Negro—loyal Republican, independent, or even Democrat—should await the action of the Republican conventions before committing himself to any other position. It may be in vain that we look for justice, but TATES ADO, FRIDAY, AUGUST 31, 1906. let us for once set up the cry from all parts of the state that justice must be done! The Republican party ought to be in favor of the ballot being given impartially to all Americans alike, or it is convicted of the rankest hypocrisy. It ought to be in favor of giving representation to all elements of the party, even though one is colored, or Colorado Republicanism must stand confessed unfair. So long has the party turned an indifferent ear to us that we are placed in the position of having to seek proper recognition from men who bear the reputation among us of being prejudiced. We must confess also our inability to contend successfully at primaries and in conventions because of paucity of numbers and scattered condition, and have to depend upon fear of our defection at the general election to command consideration. All this makes it hard for us to make headway, and for that very reason we shall watch the closer what is done to give us a square deal. We do not care whether Evans dominates the Republican party; it may be machine made and corporation bound; it may make peace in its own ranks by any means whatever, so long as it does not neglect us or leave us out of consideration in the making of laws and the division of spoils. We would rather have the black laws removed from the statutes than have an open primary in which we would be worse than outnumbered. We would be compensated for a poor supreme justice if a black man sits in the State Legislature. Every other element of the American people is looking after its own interest, and it is up to us to get a square deal for ourselves and let the others look to themselves. So let each one in his own community make it known that this year the shell game won't go. We won't be paid in stage money. We mean to be in on the deals before election and let whites play pigtail once. We will go down to the convention Republicans, and it is up to the party whether we roll up the old time vote that made it invincible, even after shotguns were the ballot Democra's used at elections. --- 110 NO. 4 NOTICE TO SUBSCRIBERS. The increase in the news features of this paper have left less time for the routine office work and in accordance with the custom of many papers we have placed a number of our subscription accounts for collection with the Publishers' Adjusting Association. There is no difference whatever between this and the custom that has prevailed except that the association will see that delinquent subscribers are given sufficient reminders to square up. All persons who receive their notices will therefore oblige us by prompt attention. In all cases of mistake, let us know, and we will gladly rectify it. Remember that it is not WHEN you pay, but WHAT YOU PAID FOR, that determines what is still due. This system of collection is not a reflection upon the honesty or reliability of any patron, but to those who delay payment we would simply say that good intentions are registered in Heaven, and our bills are due here on earth, and that takes money. It reminds us of what a brother editor in North Dakota said: "It is reported that one of Harvey's fastidious newly-married ladies kneads bread with her gloves on. The incident may be somewhat peculiar, but there are others. The editor of this paper needs bread with his shoes on; he needs bread with his shirt on; he needs bread with his pants on; and unless some of the delinquent subscribers to this old rag of freedom pay up before long he will need bread without a blamed thing on—and North Dakota is no garden of Eden in the winter time." NOTICE. The picnic to have been given by the Knight Templars at Bloomfield Park Monday was postponed on account of rain. The new date chosen is September 11th. There will be doin's that day, for the Knights mean to make up for lost time. Same old price. THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO. Personal Briefs, Who They Are, What They Are and Where They Are.

Migrate In Armies, Losing Thousands on the Way. Early writers tell of wonderful migration of American gray squirrels, which must have arisen from the rapid increase and consequent overcrowding of a locality. Thousands of this species would start off in a regular army, all moving in the same direction and with considerable rapidity, allowing nothing to stop their onward march. Although these little animals have an extreme aversion to water and do not excel as swimmers, yet, whenever a watercourse, no matter what width, barred their progress, they would not hesitate for an instant, but plunge in and struggle desperately for the opposite shore, seizing upon anything in the way of floating sticks or chips to assist them in the passage. Unless the river was very narrow by far the smaller percentage of the band reached the farther shore, the rest becoming exhausted and drown- VISITORS TO DE Will appreciate the workmanship and mo water used exclusively ORAN C. GOENS 1226 EIGHT Newly Fitted Out. Fine Line of Cigars ag. These armies never seemed to reach any destination, but gradually their numbers would decrease by death from drowning and other hardships, until the band faded entirely away. Gray squirrels, generally four in a nest, are born in March or early in April. They never venture forth from the nest during the first month and are attended alone by the mother. She makes this task upon herself from choice and does not allow another squirrel, even her own mate, to approach the nest. "THE SCENIC LIMITED."

"There's a good deal of chivalry inherent in human nature," said the Colonel meditatively—"if you can only get at it. I admit it's not always easy to do so, but one scene I witnessed rises to my mind whenever conversation turns on this point. "It was in the South, on a through express to Washington, and the porter had just started in to make up the beds for the night. He had begun with the rear end of the car, and aftermaking one or two beds he had desisted for some reason or other, so that all the other passengers except the occupants of their seats still retained their places reading or idly waiting for their turn. The car was crowded not a place vacant. "One of those whose beds had been made was a pretty little girl, a charming picture of innocence, with red cheeks and soft, appealing eyes. We'll call her Lucy for convenience. Evidently this was Miss Lucy's first trip in a sleeper and she was still ignorant of the mysteries of undressing behind the curtains of one's bed while hanging to the slats of the bed above. Indeed, as events proved, she imagined passengers were required to disrobe in the dressing room at the end of the car and then proceed in their nightrobes to their resting places. "When disturbed by the porter she had taken her little traveling bag and disappeared into the women's dressing room at the front end of the car. Ten minutes passed, when suddenly a white figure appeared in the aisle facing us, and paused, while a pair of frightened eyes were raised to our astounded faces. It was Lucy clad in her nightgown. Her hair was braided in two long thick plaits that reached below her waist. Amid a silence unbroken save by the rumble of the wheels she began the journey toward the berth at the rear end of the car, her little bare feet flashing in and out beneath her night-dress, like two tiny white rabbits. "For a moment we gazed at her, stupefied, unable to grasp the situation. Then one of the men near the front took off his hat as she passed, and in an instant the hat of every man present was doffed. Down the aisle she came, with downcast eyes, like an angel of innocence, nor was a syllable uttered until she had found refuge behind the curtains of her bed at the rear of the car. It was like the passing of a bride. "I never hear anyone speak of the decay of chivalry," repeated the Colonel at the close of the story, "without thinking of that scene and of the spontaneous tribute offered to innocence."—W. W.

It has acquired the habit of doing just about what it wants to with the Yankee whenever the "Nigger" is in the way. The Brownsville Texas, incident ought to be inspiring to colored men who yearn to, and do wear the uniform of the United States army. The real objection to these Negro troopers in Texas has not been stated publicly. The fracas in which some of them engaged is not the real cause of the great fear which is said to have overtaken the white people of Brownsville because of their presence there. They are "niggers," wearing Uncle Sam's uniform, and any one who is acquainted with the southern character knows how a southern white man hates to see a Negro dressed up, even in "a little brief authority." They have not forgotten, and will not forget, that the niggers in the War of the Rebellion made them or their fathers realize all too plainly that they could fight, and they did fight like demons, as the records show. The cracker doesn't want them around now because of the bitter memories their presence recalls. But the real fear of Negro troops in any sectiton of the South is, that when at some time the white barbarians are having the time of their lives roasting and lynching Negroes, these troopers with firearms might get busy and shoot up a few hundred of their bravest and best citizens. As Mark Twain, in "Huckleberry Finn," says: "A southern mob is an aggregation of white-livered cowards," or words meaning the same thing. It usually takes from one to two hundred of these vipers, armed to the teeth, to lynch one Negro. These roving murderers (and every lyncher is a murderer, no matter what his social status) cannot put up a manly fight; they fear to meet the Negro on equal terms, to give him a man's chance for his life. Nothing more clearly proves the innate cowardice of the white men of the South than the methods they employ to avenge alleged assaults upon white women of the South, who are not always guiltless. Any reputable physician will affirm that it is impossible for any man to rape a woman who is determined not to be raped, and that only a fool would knock a woman senseless for the purpose of raping her. The Negroes of the South are not addicted to the habit which is said to be of such frequent occurrence in the South. There are plenty of black men living North and South who could tell some amazing stories on the subject of raping which would show that some of the white women of the South are not like Caesar's wife—above suspicion, but are very human. The whites of Browns THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. ville are evidently getting ready to lynch or burn some Negroes in the near future, and wish these fighting Negro troops far, far away when the performance begins. Well, they have got their wish, and the white ladies may now walk the streets in safety. The next demand Brownsville, Texas, will make on the federal government will probably be for the immediate repeal of the war amendments. Mr. A. Goldsmith, a colored man, writing me from Melbourne, Australia, tells a harrowing tale of Negro prejudice in that far-off penal colony of Great Britain, where the cry of a "white Australia" has been raised. Referring to a speech made in Parliament by a Mr. Irwin in advocacy of a white Australia and the deportation of the colored races, he says: "My Dear Mr. Bruce: With such white men as Mr. Irwin in Parliament to make laws, what hope has the black man to rise?" The English K. C. do not like the Ethiopian church, which is affiliated with the A. M. E. Church in the United States, missionaries from which, consisting of American Negroes, have been imported for the express purpose of sowing the seeds of disloyalty and revolution in the minds of the Kaffirs and Zulus with the distinct and definite aim of expelling the white man and building up an important black republic in South Africa. Mr. Temperly says," continues Mr. Goldsmith: "The imperial control of native races would be seriously imperiled if the Kaffirs and Zulus rising should extend to other tribes, numbering tens of millions in the southern parts of Africa, and increasing in numerical strength owing to their greater fecudity than the white population does, or would even if the latter were being recruited, which it is not, by a large immigration from Europe. Let Dr. Livingstone speak: "But for their color, pronounced to be worthy to take rank among the foremost Europeans." A more considerate treatment of the natives would appear to be specially called for at a time when a Pan-Ethiopian movement is being stimulated among them by Negro propagandists from the United States of America." I think this is enough for you at this time. The Negro the world over has got the white man thinking and scheming how he may best succeed in the effort to subjugate and dominate him. But God still rules in the heavens, and the black man, if true to the traditions of his race and true to himself, will speedily come into his own. The modern Pharaohs cannot much longer keep the Negro out of the Promised Land, his by inheritance and by every right, human and divine. Nobody knows this better than the thieving white men WESTERN UNIVERSITY.

They weigh no more than an ordinary tire, the puncture resisting qualities being given by several layers of thin, specially prepared fabricon the tread.

Saves All Her Gold Coins. It is said by her most intimate friends that Lillian Russell has never been known to spend a gold coin. In the years of her stage career she has accumulated a large number of gold pieces of every description, and they are treasured as carefully as her jewels. This practical hoarding of gold by the actress is not due to any superstition, but to a sentiment of some peculiar nature. During the tours of the former Weber & Fields company to the Pacific slope the actress received a large share of her weekly salary in gold. Every coin was dutifully added to the collection, which has now assumed the proportions of a modest fortune. Ward Auction Co.

There seems to be an idea in the minds of some of the local celebrities that their merits as leaders are en- hanced by blackening and belittling the character of others. Such narrow- ness alone furnishes sufficient proof of the unworthiness of those who are guilty of this practice. We do not wish to make a target of anyone, but unless there is a radical change and seekers after preferment make their race on their merit, we shall do the community a good turn by calling a spade a spade. School is almost here, and a word to our parents ought to ve all that is nec- essary. Education plays too import- ant a part in the world’s preparation for the battle of life for us to neglect the glorious opportunity we have in Colorado to be the equal of anyone in this respect. Send your children to school. After sending them do not leave it all to the teacher but go once a month and listen to her hints as to how your efforts at home can make the school work more effective. ‘To merely send the children to school is only half. No few hours of school training can offset the many hours of home influence where they do not har- monize. Domestic Tragedy. The cook wept.
