NO. 6 The County Machine Wants No Negroes The defeat of J. W. Jackson in the Republican county convention a blow to Negro Republicans THE REPUBLICAN COUNTY CONVENTION HAS DISAPPOINTED THE NEGROES OF DENVER COUNTY. THE NEGROES OF THE STATE WHO HAVE LOOKED FORWARD TO HAVING A REPRESENTATIVE IN THE COMING LEGISLATURE FROM THIS COUNTY ARE DISAPPOINTED. A HUNDRED WHITE MEN WILL COME BEFORE COLORED PEOPLE FOR THEIR SUPPORT ON THE REPUBLICAN TICKET BUT BY THE VOTE OF THIS CONVENTION NO NEGRO MAY ASPIRE TO ELECTIVE OFFICE AS A CANDIDATE OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY. NEGROES WHO READ THIS ARTICLE AND KNOW HOW THEY OR THEIR PARENTS FACED THE BULLETS OF THE SOUTHERN WHITES IN ORDER TO CAST A VOTE FOR THE PARTY OF LINCOLN, WILL NOT BELIEVE THAT A REPUBLICAN CONVENTION REFUSED TO PLACE A DECENT NEGRO UPON ITS TICKET. NEGROES WHO KEEP UP WITH WHAT IS GOING ON IN POLITICS AND KNOW THE ADVANCES THAT SENATOR PATTERSON AND LEADING DEMOCRATS ARE MAKING TO ALIENATE THE BLACK VOTE FROM THE REPUBLICAN PARTY AND WIN IT OVER TO DEMOCRACY, WILL NOT CONCEIVE HOW ANY SHREWD PARTY CONVENTION WOULD DELIBERATELY AID THE OPPOSITION IN ITS PLAN. THE RAPID GROWTH OF THE STAY-AT-HOME VOTE AMONG OUR PEOPLE UNTIL NOW IT IS SAFE TO SAY THAT NOT ONE-THIRD OF OUR WOMEN VOTE AND ONLY A PORTION OF THE MEN, WOULD SEEM TO REASONING MEN SUFFICIENT INCENTIVE FOR REPUBLICANS MAKING A PLACE ON THE TICKET FOR A NEGRO IF CONSIDERATIONS OF FAIRNESS DID NOT DO IT. WE DO NOT KNOW WHAT FATUITY POSSESSES REPUBLICANS IN THIS STATE THAT THEY DELIBERATELY INSULT COLORED MEMBERS OF THE PARTY AT EVERY TURN. ONLY A FEW DAYS AGO THIS SAME CONVENTION, DOMINATED BY THE SAME FAC TION, NOMINATED FOR OFFICE A WHITE MAN WHOM NEGROES BELIEVE DELIBERATELY WHITEWASHED A MURDER CASE IN WHICH A BLACK MAN WAS THE VICTIM AND A WHITE MAN THE AGGRESSOR. NOW, AS IF THAT IS NOT ENOUGH, IT REFUSES TO GIVE A NEGRO WHO HAS BEEN A VALUABLE AID IN ITS RECENT VICTORIES AND WHOSE WORTH BOTH AS A PARTY MAN AND A CITIZEN IS GENERALLY ACKNOWLEDGED, A PLACE ON THE LEGISLATIVE TICKET. THE REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONVENTION OF TWO YEARS AGO DECLARED FOR A SQUARE DEAL FOR THE NEGRO IN THE SOUTH, PLEDGING ITSELF EITHER TO ENFORCE PRESENT LAWS WITH REFERENCE TO VOTING OR TO ENFORCE THE PROVISIONS OF THE CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS COVERING THE RESTRICTIONS OF OUR RIGHTS. SO FAR, THIS CLAUSE OF THE PLATFORM HAS BROUGHT NO RESULTS. NOT A WORD HAS BEEN SAID, NOT A VOICE RAISED, TO KEEP UP EVEN THE SEMBLANCE OF GOOD FAITH. HERE AT HOME THE DECLINE OF THE BLACK MAN IN POLITICS HAS BEEN RAPID AND SURE. WE COULD NOT HAVE BEEN MORE CERTAIN OF THE REGARD IN WHICH WE ARE ARE HELD IF WE HAD BEEN TOLD WE ARE NOT WANTED. THE POSSIBILITY OF A SPLIT IN THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY MAY BE SO GRATIFYING TO THE RULING FACTION OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY THAT IT THINKS THE BLACK VOTE IS UNNECESSARY. OR IT MAY FEEL THAT WE ARE SUCH CRAVENS AND COWARDS OR SUCH STRICT PARTISANS THAT WE NEED NOT BE CONSIDERED, BUT WHY DOES IT PERSIST IN MAKING PROMISES? THE STATESMAN RECOGNIZES THE ESSENTIAL PART THAT PARTIES PLAY IN THE ADMINISTRATION OF THE GOVERNMENT. IT FEELS THAT A PARTISAN STAND ACCOMPLISHES GOOD IN THE LONG RUN. BUT WHERE WILL THE LANE TURN FOR THE POOR DESPISED BLACK MAN IN COLORADO? WHEN WILL INSULT AND DISAPPOINTMENT CEASE? TWICE THIS WEEK WE HAVE FELT THE BLOW AND AS A LAST RESORT COME TO THE STATE CONVENTION. WILL IT FOLLOW AFTER DENVER AND SPURN US, OR WILL IT FLING OUT ITS BANNER OF REPUBLICANISM ON HIGH AND SAY TO ALL MEN THAT IT STANDS FOR A SQUARE DEAL? WE AWAIT THE ANSWER. WILL IT AFFIRM ITS ALLEGIANCE TO THE REPUBLICAN PLATFORM AND PLEDGE ITSELF TO THE ENFORCEMENT OF THE LAW WHICH IS VIOLATED BY THE DISFRANCHISEMENT OF SOUTHERN STATES OR PROMISE THE SUPPORT OF ITS CONGRESSIONAL NOMINEES FOR REMEDIAL LEGISLATION?

Always Staunch And True Always Staunch 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, 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 community. In no other way can the investment 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. Information, instruction and entertainment fill its columns and it leaves a good taste in the mouth of the reader. It stands for Law and Order in the State-for Peace, Prosperity and Happiness in the Home.

Like Finding Money. Finding health is like finding money —so think those who are sick. When you have a cough, cold, sore throat, or chest irritation, better act promptly like W. C.

LAND PATENTS HELD UP. Forty-two thousand patents to land in the Choctaw and Chickasaw nations are lying in the vaults of the commission to the five civilized tribes in Muskogee, duly executed by the governors of the two nations, approved by the secretary of the interior and ready for delivery. The commission is holding them under instructions from the secretary of the interior and the tribal officials assert that the secretary is delaying action in hope of getting authority from congress to take the delivery of these deeds out of the hands of the govenors of the tribes and have the work done by government officials. The patents have been a bone of contention between Secretary Hitchcock and the Indian governors for more than a year. The Curtis bill, as now pending, provides that the deeds "shall be delivered under the direction of the secretary of the interior to the party entitled to receive the same," and if this clause becomes a law as it probably will in a short time, it will do away with all claims on the part of the governors to the right of making the delivery themselves.

The house is to have a new roof and the woodwork and blinds are to be painted. The floor in the vestibule, from the street, is to be restored to its original appearance, and the old stone front doorstep, which has been covered up for many years, is to be raised and used again, as formerly. Over this old step the family have gone from the beginning of the house. On it stood Zilipah Longfellow, in 1788. the mother of the poet Longfellow, and presented a standard to the Portland federal volunteers, the first uniformed military company in Maine. This company was reorganized as the Portland light infantry, and next year the members are anticipating a centennial celebration.—Boston Transcript. ABSENCE MAKES HEART FONDER Advice of Worldly Wise Woman to Overfond Wives. "If a wife would keep her husband her lover, let him miss her now and then," is the advice of a worldly wise woman. "Men get tired of their wives just from seeing them around so much. The same face at breakfast 35 times a year: the same face at dinner year in and year out; neither realizes what the trouble is, and the wife, as often as not, thinks it is her fault, and prods herself into greater conscientiousness, greater fidelity. Stuff and nonsense! Let her pack her grip and go off for a holiday. Give him the jolt of finding that he must eat his dinner alone once in a while. She use-and-wont attitude toward the wife—the taking her for granted—it is this which, unguessed, unseen, lies at the bottom of much domestic friction of the day. In nine cases out of ten the woman is its victim, but on the other hand, it is generally her fault to begin with. These self-effacing, meek, ultra-conscientious little wives, oh, how much they have to answer for!"—New York Tribune Odd Fellows Meet in Salt Lake City SCENES AND INCIDENTS IN THE ODD FELLOWS' GRAND LODGE RECENTLY HELD IN SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH. Perhaps no jollier crowd of people ever left a city to visit a sister state than the party of Pueblo and Colorado Springs people that left the latter city September 1st over the Midland road, bound for Salt Lake. These stalwarts of many years' service in the cause of Odd Fellowship, Powell and Holmes, led the Pueblo delegation, while Sedley B. Jones, Melvin Clay and H. H. Seymour successfully piloted the Conorado Springs herd. The Misses Carson and Riddle added beauty and joviality to the number and materially assisted in making the journey seem much shorter by their presence. The trip to Salt Lake City over the Midland is replete with beautiful scenery at all times, but on this occasion nature seemed willing to take a hand in giving our tourists a full variety of weather. Leaving the Springs at an hour in the day so warm as to almost approach suffocation, only to meet with the chilling blasts of a winter's day as we passed beyond Leadville and scaled the dizzy heights of Park lake and Hell Gate, then to plunge swiftly into a driving rain on the western slope, and to again find delightful weather, bountiful fruit crops and flowers in the Grand Junction country, was an experience sufficient for one day's travel. Reaching Salt Lake at 2 o'clock p. m. on the second day we found a city so beautiful, a hospitality so notable, a people so generous as to at once drive away that "tired feeling" that crept upon us the last part of our journey. The Butte, Montana, delegation, composed of Grand Director Sellie Reeves and wife, W. H. Jones, John F. Davis, Mrs. J. Wilds and Mrs. Johnson, were already on the ground and viewing the wondrous sights of the great Mormon city. Near midnight (Sunday) the strong Denver delegation, headed by F. T. Bruce, the "noblest Roman of them all," reached the city. All retired early, so as to be in good trim for the opening of the grand lodge Monday morning. And when the grand master raised the gavel and roped for order Monday at 10 o'clock a. m. there had assembled the most representative number of Odd Fellows that has met a grand lodge in many years. C. H. Tolson, the able representative from Cheyenne, was one of the first to "get busy" and offer valuable suggestions. The business of the sessions was carried forward rapidly and without a hitch being manifest at any time. The reports from the THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. several departments were all particularly good, but when the endorsement department offered their reports the entire delegation was taken off its feet in surprise at the magnificent showing made in so short a period. In fact so strong did this report appeal to all that the amount of endowment was raised to $75. And when it is understood that this department began its labors only last January, and by a per capita tax of 15 cents per month has accumulated nearly $500 over and above all expenditures and the prompt paying of two death claims, certainly it is remarkable. The executive department also showed up strongly. This session of the grand lodge brought out two new and able floor leaders in the persons of Rev. W. R. Hardy of Pueblo and Dr. P. E. Sprattlin of Denver. That past master of art and craft, George S. Conlee, was, as usual a prominent figure, as were also C. P. McKenzie, H. H. Voss and Will Morris. The social features of the meeting were many and notable. From a well arranged dance on Monday night, a visit to the magnificent salt palace on Tuesday, a swell reception to the visitors and delegates on Wednesday night, as well as a beautiful drill by the Pueblo patriarchic under the guidance of Captain Wadsworth, to an excursion to Saltair on Thursday, not a dull moment was experienced. The excursion to the Great Salt Lake was by far the crowning feature of the trip. Here bathing in the mammoth Salt Lake and dancing in the pavilion furnished pleasure for all. The next meeting of the Odd Fellows will be held in the city of Pueblo, and if the same push and energy is manifest during the next year as has been put forth during the one just closed there will be a great fraternal revival in our western states and many converts to Odd Fellowship will testify as to its value and blessings. Notes of the Meeting. Many of the ladies enjoyed the pleasures of bathing in the lake, but the greater number contented themselves by viewing the waters from the pavilion. Rev. W. R. Hardy and C. L. Powell were easily voted the most graceful swimmers, but F. T. Bruce said he could beat either of them, only he wanted to give "the boys" a chance. H. Marks led the crowd through the old mill and around the figure 8, but balked when it came to the circle swing. Miss Ella Carson took several snap- The only colored saloon in Denver.

The reports of the year will be read at Shorter church Sunday night and a large audience is expected. This is one of the best years in the history of that church and much interest is being taken in the sum total of the work. Rev. Dyett is on the last stage of his dollar money collection and is urging all who have been so kind as to promise him to come up by that time that his year may be as triumphant in its end as all through. The last picnic of the year was given Tuesday on the coldest day thus far. More than three hundred people attended and filled the pavilion at Bloomfield park. There was plenty of music and it was not cold for the dancers. The Knights Templar were unfortunate in that their first date was postponed on account of rain and this last was chilly in the extreme. The Life Line Club will meet in an open meeting Thursday with Mrs. Emma Price, 2737 California street, to hear the report of Mrs. DePriest, who attended the convention. It will also make arrangements for its fall work. Mrs. Lillie Lewis, president, and Mrs. J. W. Wells, secretary. Mrs. R. C.

He was assisted by Oscar Collins and Mrs. Ruth Davis. Those present were Miss Ida Maxwell, Miss Hilda Taylor, Miss Addie Clayton, Will McLamore, Frank Williams, Leon Edwards, Russell Smith, Schuyler Morris, Dick Frazier and Miss Goldie Willmont. Champion Gans paid the party a visit. The writeup is elaborate and the affair was undoubtedly a soiree worth while. MANITOU. Mrs. Newton Brown was the guest of Mrs. Joe Pope and other friends in Pueblc, Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. H. Hickerson left for their home, Muskogee, I. T., last week. Miss H. Thompson and Mrs. S.

Miss Lily Le Boenf, in petite creole, an elocutionist of great ability and wide reputation, is spending a few weeks in Manitou at the residence of Mrs. Jerry Stone. Miss Le Boeuf was born in New Orleans, Louisiana. She taught in the city schools of Houston, Texas, prior to two years ago, since which time she has traveled as an elocutionist.

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 itchiness, 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 about 186, 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-Prest, on each package. Refuse all others. Full directions with every bottle. Price only 50 cts. Sold by drugrists 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 5.00 for three bottles or 0.50 for six bottles, express paid. We pay postage and express charges to all polls in U. S. A. When ordering send postal or express money order, and mention this paper. Write your name and address plainly to The Ozenized Ox Marrow Co.

Our Phone is Main 7905 If your white neighbor does not want to live next to you and complains to your landlord, save your money and make a first payment on your own home. Figure this out yourself: Two hundred dollars in a national bank on interest brings you per year $6.00. Two hundred dollars as first payment on Denver real estate will bring you, if the property is valued at $2,000; Rent per month $20 in one Don't squirm. Figure it out for yourself. Do you prefer to be a renter of out-of-the-way hovels at exorbitant prices or a MAN? Don't blame poor whites for calling you bad names and shunning you if you have not the courage to stand upright. Fight for a foothold or quit like a coward. We have commiseration for the fellow that is down, and the Speer delegation is certainly speared. Senator Patterson is entitled to all the credit that can be given for his victory in his party, for he has beaten a hard opponent. WE MUST MAKE DEALS BEFORE ELECTION. Once there was a Negro in the county treasurer's office, one in the county clerk's office, a deputy under the sheriff and the whole force of janitors as the representation of the colored Republicans of this county. There is now one lone Negro clerk and it was a question a few weeks since whether he was clerk or janitor; no deputy sheriff, and a few janitorships. The responsibility for this condition is equally divided between an indifferent party and a few selfish Negroes who have double-crossed the people they claim to represent. We would that it was white politicians only upon --- THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. MS. $1.99 Three months. 50 olorado, as second class mailmatter. s Main 7905 whom the blame rested, but in truthfulness it must be said that the class of traitorous Negroes who have assumed to direct our political affairs in the past have bargained and bargained, sacrificing everything for personal advantage until even that has been lost. When they lost sight of principle and met with deserved contempt, they accomplished the ruin of us all. Now from this time on, if publicity can stop duplicity the Statesman assures the public their regime is at an end. and the matter of fair representation for colored Republicans is up to the officeholders. A full vote from the colored people would swell Republican totals by 1,500. It is gross ignorance or foolishness to estimate lower than that the stay-at-home Negro vote. The futility of voting under continued neglect of both their interests and the principles involved, has driven Negroes out of politics. To restore confidence in the party, to get out this vote and make Republican victory sure, assurances of proper treatment should be given in time. This can be done. We can be made to feel that we are as welcome after the victory is won as when the battle is still to be fought. We are not such tyros as to believe that the county nominees are not making pledges before election. We have not been deceived as to the real intent when the excuse is urged that "the appropriation is not large enough to permit the putting on of colored help." In short, we are expected to put up a good fight for the party and won't hold the sack any longer. It is this year that we will put candidates on record and it will be pay day next time if they don't keep faith and deal as we deserve. The good citizens must make it plain that no excuses based upon the unworthiness of shyster Negro politicians will suffice. The same standards prevail among us as them and whites are too good judges of human nature to think that we are led by drunkards or idlers or $50 a month ignoramuses. A clear understanding can do much good and will add strength to the whole ticket this year and for all time. It is to the advantage of the candidate as well as the colored voters. In no spirit of vengeance for the past, but of wise provision for the future, we state the case plainly and assert that the interests of our people demand attention from the best men among us: --- TERMS.
