Dr. DuBois, dares to VOL. XVIII Dr. DuB The world has been anxiously waiting for some word from Dr. W. E. B. DuBois upon the tragedy of Atlanta, Georgia. Last week in the New York Independent that word was given. It is the most powerful arraignment of the white man and his tyranny and wrong that has ever been given to our country. In making a statement in defense of his race in such an hour in the heart of the South Dr. DuBois has shown a courage greater than Garrison and worthy of Jesus Christ. Will the nation hear him? Will it pause in its mad rush for gain and blood to think of the chasm that awaits it unless it goes back to its moorings? But whatever may come, DuBois is the hero of the hour, standing in the fierce glare of southern barbarity demanding a man's chance. Dr. DuBois will not live to see it, but his indictment of the South and of the North at this crucial time will raise up leaders for his race. He has risen above his fellows and sounded the clarion call. Shall we sleep? Will we not be as brave as he is there? Courage, brother, courage. The night is dark, but we have a leader now, armed with a never failing courage; a man who would be more powerful were he banished or struck down than he is sitting on the heights of Atlanta University directing the battle of the weak against the strong. We are with Dr. DuBois, tho Mar- DENVER, COLORADO, FRIDAY, OCT. 19, 1906. tin Luther of the twentieth century. All along the line we call for courage. Courage to stand erect like a man for all that is pledged in the law and by necessity inheres in the nature of our government. Courage, courage, courage! During the Atlanta massacre Mr. H. J. Pinkett, who is connected with the Press Bureau, sent a letter to J. Max Barber, editor of the Voice of the Negro, to ascertain how he had stood the storm, and received a telegram which read: "Safe and unmolested." This news had just reached Mr. Pinkett when word came that Mr. J. Max Barber had been forced to leave Atlanta. The reason given was that he had exposed the lies of white men. This does not come as a great surprise to us; for we knew all along that it was only a question of time when Mr. Barber would have to leave the South and issue the Voice of the Negro from the North or West. We know the South, and knowing it, understand that there can be no free speech in that section of the country. White men can not exercise it, and black men can only do so for a time. It is but another evidence of the barbarism of the South, the low moral tone, the beastly cravings of her men and the hysterical hypocrisy of her women. But J. Max Barber emerges from that land a man, full of the strength and vigor of youth and courage. His voice will not cry ```markdown ``` out from the wilderness, but he will sound the call to dirty from the free Northwest; free speech will not be crushed. As $ \varepsilon $ result of Mr. Barber's forced exit from Atlanta the Voice of the Negro will very likely lose all of its property, which is situated there. Financial aid is needed for the re-establishment of the magazine in Chicago, whither Mr. Barber has gone to labor for his race. All true men and women of the race-loving type will respond to the good cause of helping this great voice of our race. On October 23d Mr. J. Max Barber will speak at Bethel library in the Metropolitan Methodist church on the Atlanta massacre. It is hoped that all who can will be present to hear Mr. Barber and take advantage of the opportunity then to contribute to the Voice of the Negro which a rabid South has tried to destroy. J. Max Barber is an exile and a hero. Let us stand by him and hold up his hands. His service has been great; it will be greater if we will stand up and help him. Let us all do our duty. T. Thomas Fortune most viciously attacks J. Max Barber for leaving Atlanta, Georgia. In substance he calls him a coward. How sad it is to see a man like Fortune, grown old in the battle of life, trying to strike down a young man like J. Max Barber. How much better it would be if he in a time like this to give a young man, if he has gone wrong, the benefit of his years of experience. But he stops to blight the future of the greatest Negro of his age in the world to-day. No, Mr. Fortune, this is not the way to help mankind. We know you are bitter; your genius has gone unrewarded and has bowed to the god of Bacchus; but do not let this fact make you bitter against those young men who have placed themselves upon the altar of humanity that ten million members of our republic may some day see full liberty. Mr. Fortune says he can not live in the South because of his temperament. We can say the same of Mr. Barber, whose clean life and Roman courage will lead him on to better and higher things in the life of the race and nation. Mr. Fortune may criticise, but any competitor MAN NO. 12 NO.12 Mr. Barber will go on, fighting and winning battles in the future as in the past. Suffice it to say that the Voice of the Negro is the greatest race paper in the world to-day, and it has been made so very largely through the capacity and character of J. Max Barber. William L. Houston, according to the prediction made by the Press Bureau, was elected grand master of the Odd Fellows of America at Richmond two weeks ago. In this connection it will be recalled, the Atlanta Independent stated that the fight at Richmond would be a battle between the friends of Edward H. Morris and friends of Booker T. Washington for control of the order. William L. Houston was supported by Edward H. Morris and won. But one thing that is most gratifying in this affair is that there was not a man seen drunk on the streets during the whole week that the B. M. C. was in Richmond, there was not an arrest, and the officials of the city treated the visiting delegates very courteously. We again congratulate Mr. Houston upon his triumph and thank Mr. Edward H. Morris for the service he has rendered the order and the race by standing by Mr. Houston and seeing him safe within the gates. Mr. George C. Sturgiss, candidate for Congress from the Second district of West Virginia, is one of the wealthiest men in the state of West Virginia. At present he is chairman of the State Board of Trade and a man of wide and helpful influence in his state, and if he is sent to Congress will have great influence in the national councils. The colored voters of the Second district are for him, if he is for them. They want to know how he stands on the fourteenth amendment to the constitution of the United States. They are demanding that he pledge his strength to support the reduction clause of the fourteenth amendment. Mr. Sturgiss can not go to Congress without the colored vote of his district, he can not get the colored vote unless he will stand by the fourteenth amendment. What will Mr. Sturgiss do about it? P.

They have begun at the top and, with the marked exception of John Quincy Adams, who was trained in diplomacy from his boyhood, have had little or none of that preliminary training which Europe has deemed essential, Their school has been that of American law, politics and affairs, and, taken as a whole, they have more than held their own with their old country apponents.

Secretary Taft has traveled 100,000 miles, or four times the distance around the world at the equator, since May 24, 1900, when he became gover- nor general of the Philippines. In the five and a half years since his call from the federal bench he has spent 360 days cn the ocean, or almost one year. He has passed six weeks on railroad trains.

Rev. D. D. Cole of this city and Prof. J. H. Jackson of Colorado Springs were out last week making a speechmaking tour of the cities in the upper Arkansas valley. In Williamsburg, a most enthusiastic meeting was held, which makes it clear that the Republican ticket will poll the full strength of the colored vote. Reports from the cities on the western slope are flattering in the extreme. United, with no tendency toward division, or even toward indifference, the colored voters have allied themselves with the party of progress, of business, and of the supremacy of law and order over class conflicts. In Glenwood Springs and Grand Junction of their own accord the colored voters are looking after the registration of their own people. Such work for the party will count in the grand result. The first of the series of parlor meetings being held for the purpose of educating the voters up to the issues in the campaign was held at the home of Miss Leona Troutman, 3131 Humboldt street, last Thursday evening. It was well attended and enthusiastic. Mrs. DePriest talked upon the woman in politics and made some good points. Informal discussion followed and then refreshments and music. Standing room was at a premium at the Republican rally held at Bethlehem Baptist church last Saturday night. It was the best meeting that has been held thus far and the efforts of Rev. C. A. Edwards and the congregation supplemented by the campaign committee were a credit to the party and the people. Rev. J. E. Ford was at his best in his handling of the issues. Hon. H. C. Kelly also spoke. A feature of the evening was the singing of a campaign song by I. H. Harper, which was of his own composition. Professor Hike furnished music. Mr. Thomas Campbell aroused enthusiasm by his apt remarks and oratorical flights. He is an audience pleaser. The Buchtel Republican Club will meet at the headquarters, 1023 Nineteenth street, next Wednesday evening. All members are requested to be present, as important business is to be transacted. A. J. Fitzpatrick, president; Lelia C. Webster, secretary. The home of Mr. and Mrs. Sherman Overton on High street was filled Monday night with voters eager to hear the doctrines expounded by the Republican party in this campaign. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. The state and local issues were ably handled by several speakers. Another house meeting was held last evening at the home of D. S. Webster, 1228 South Twelfth street. Mrs. J. E. Travick, J. J. Manuel and A. J. Fitzpatrick were the speakers. At Boulder last night Thomas Campbell and Mrs. Ida DePriest were speakers. At Colorado Springs Rev. Ford and Dr. Westbrook spoke. Tonight at Harman Dr. Westbrook, J. W. Jackson and Q. J. Gilmore will present the issues upon which the Republican hosts are rallying. Next Tuesday evening at the People's Presbyterian church, Twenty-third and Washington avenues, there will be a monster rally. On Thursday night at Ward chapel, on the West Side, near Eighth avenue, there will be another. Under the charge of the speakers bureau there will be a continual round of meetings until even the most distant parts of the state and the least interested will know the truth and not be driven frantic by yellow press ravings.

COTTRELL, Physician COTTRELL'S 2100 ARAPA PHONE 3 Marrying on Account Rev. Mr. Williams was the Congregational minister in the village of Winslow, Me., several years ago. One evening four young people called at the parsonage. Two of them wished to be married. The papers in the case were legal, so Mr. Williams performed the ceremony. The other couple acted as bridesmaid and best man. The bridegroom was the son of a well-known man in the town, and as the happy couple were leaving the parsonage the young man whispered to Mr. Williams: "Just charge it to father, parson. It will be all right." Advertisement Did Double Duty. Advertisement Did Double Duty. A few years ago an eccentric London poultry dealer, named Fox, combined a birth announcement with an advertisement of his wares. He inserted in the papers an advertisement to the effect that "Another little Fox found its way into my establishment between ten and eleven last night, but notwithstanding its arrival there will be no diminution in the number or quality of the geese for which my establishment has long been famous. Remember that the old Fox is always cunning in securing for business the plumpest goose." Toll Taken by the Sea. Statisticians find that something like 2,000 vessels of all sorts disappear in the sea every year, never to be heard from, taking 12,000 persons and involving a money loss of $100,000,000. 0 THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO.

JUST WHAT TO EAT IMPORTANT MATTER IN THE SCHEME OF LIFE. Too Little Interest Attached in These Rushing Days to the Question of Diet—Some People Who Seem Utterly Unable to Learn What Suits Them. Are You Engaged? Engaged people should remember, that, after marriage, many quarrels can be avoided by keeping their digestions in good condition with Electric Bitters. S. A. Brown of Bennettsville, S. C., says: "For years, my wife suffered intensely from dyspepsia, complicated with a torpid liver, until she lost her strength and vigor, and became a mere wreck of her former self. Then she tried Electric Bitters, which helped her at once, and finally made her entirely well. She is now strong and healthy." All druggists sell and guarantee them, at 50c a bottle. Wm. Williams.

In this city, as the election draws nigh, quiet prevails. Just what it means will be made known on the day of battle. There are good men working earnestly on both sides, and are noncommittal about their plans. So on that day is openly by many predicted a hard battle will be fought. The colored citizens will undoubtedly be equal to the occasion in looking out for their best interests. At the beautiful home of Mr. and Mrs. Sam Maloney on West Sixth street an elaborate luncheon was served to his many friends this week. Some of them were Messrs. A. R. Ransom, Dock Lee, John Gordon, Will Gordon, Andrew Ransom and Herbert. This was in honor of Mrs. Sam Maloney's return from a long extended visit to Colorado Springs, Denver and other places in and out of the state. Here of late it seems like that something is lacking about political clubs. Both white and colored have noticed it. Did you ever study the cause why less activity and pains are taken to call the people together for counsel? To-day both races are wiser than we were forty years ago, and yet our meetings for each other's good and to understand each other are less frequent. We have about three colored clubs here in this city, and what are they doing? Who will answer? Who will volunteer to tell the truth? We are fearful lest our scalps be taken. Quite a number of new homes are being bought. The widow of the late W. H. Holland has purchased a most beautiful cottage on West Seventeenth street. Politics, even though quiet, is overshadowing everything else at present. At any rate, we prefer waiting until after the election before we begin any series of write-ups of the wealth and social standing, and their industrial elevation in this city. By that time I hope that all the business men will have consented to enter our business column project in order to show up Pueblo in its proper light. If you want us to get the news remember 130 North Union avenue, our Mr. Jones. SALIDA LETTER The supper given at Strait hall for the benefit of the A. M. E. Mission, Monday evening, was a decided success, socially and financially. Much credit is due Mrs. M. Walker and her able corps of assistants. Mr. John Conway spent several days in Salida, Poncha and Ouray. Rev. J. Stephen Smith is down from Leadville, looking after the interests of the mission here. Chester Franklin, the geneal editor and publisher of the Statesman, paid us a flying visit last week. Not a delinquent subscriber escaped. THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO. Rev. D. D. Cole of Denver and Professor Jackson of Colorado Springs were here on business political last week. We hope to hear these gentlemen a little later in the campaign. The colored voters of Chaffee county have lined up to a man and great results are expected, as the Republican party have allowed each and every claim presented by them. The beautiful home of Mr. and Mrs. Jason Wilson was the scene of pleasure last Tuesday, at which time several friends enjoyed all the delicacies of the season. CITY NEWS. PIONEER PASSES AWAY. One by one the old settlers, who were here in the days when Denver was a village—when the white-topped prairie schooners were as common a sight on Larimer street, the then business center, as automobiles on Sixteenth street are now, are passing away. Mrs. Mary Brown of 2443 Larimer street passed away Monday after an illness of less than a week. The mourning family and their many friends are left to console themselves by the memory of their many excellences. She was carrying insurance in four life companies, the Prudential, American Life, Union Mutual and Pacific Mutual. All were notified on Monday about 5:30 p.m. At 8 p.m. the American Life had handed the bereaved husband the check for the amount of the insurance. The American was over twelve hours ahead of its nearest competitor, the Prudential. The latter has always been the recordholder for promptest payment, but must now resign the place to the American. Mr. Brown expressed himself as highly pleased with their promptness and lack of red tape. The funeral was held Thursday afternoon from the People's Presbyterian Church of which she was a member. Rev. Cole had charge of the services. Mrs. Eila Burnley, a fosterchild, was present from Telluride. The service were very impressive, and the profoundest sympathy is felt for the family by a circle of friends that extends throughout the city and state. A stratagem. He was a very aged man, Of sinety years or more, And at the thought of dying he Did wax exceeding sore. And what did he, the aged man, To wholly calm his fears? He robbed a safe so they could give Him ten or fifteen years! Silk Hats as Nosebags. A quantity of cast-off clothing which the Rochester society sent for distribution among the poor of London included several silk hats, which were sold as nosebags for costermongers' donkeys.

Whereas, the deceased, Brother Harris, was at one time a member of this chapter and past worthy patron; and while in life we knew him to be an upright and honorable Christian brother as well as a gentleman of the highest order.

Hard to Please Everybody. Whatever a girl does it seems inevitable that she should be laughed at and she must learn to expect this, says a writer. A few years ago she was called a "bluestocking" for her devotion to learning; next an "emptyheaded, overdressed doll," and now she is a "creature of iron muscles of waistless symmetry, of biceps and ungainliness." Should she turn her energies to cooking and domesticity she beomes a "mere household drudge" Vengeance Is Quick. Prof. Sutterlin writes in the Frankfurter Zeitung that it is dangerous to bring complaint against a Naples coachman for cruelty to animals; he knows of an Englishman who did so, and was found dead next day in a narrow street with a dagger wound in his heart Persons having matter for publication will bear in mind that this paper goes to press Thursday night and not Friday noon as formerly.

Our Phone is Main 7905 The holacaust of crime which has been the sorrow of the Negroes of Denver for the past few months has had only one ray of light in it. The gun-carrying and knife-using citizen brings no credit on himself and 4s a source of expense to the state and of reproach to his intimates. We wish that public sentiment would be aroused among us so that it will be a stigma for one to so conduct himself that crimes are made easy, even though there may be justification in a greater or less degree for them. Ne- groes must remember that the same privileges do not extend to us In this white man’s country as to the other race, and we must be more than their match in all respects to get equal credit. Yet out of it all has come the gladsome spectacle of a Negro lawyer achieving victories in defense of his kind that seemed impossible. By clearing the girl who was on trial for murder this week, Lawyer Stuart has again shown competency in an unusual degree. Race lovers were thrilled sev- eral weeks since when despite the ef- forts of the whole police department to convict, he secured the acquittal of a Negro for the killing of a policeman, His success was accentuated by the conviction of his companion for the same crime, the latter having a white attorney, two weeks ago. Now comes again his victory of this week. It gives us great pleasure to congratulate Law- yer Stuart; we are proud to point to the achievement of a Negro when com: pared with the white attorneys to whom some entrust their cases. Thomas Kelton, William Martin and T. McAllister have returned from a great session of the Building Laborers’ International Union at Dayton, Ohio. ‘iney feel jubilant because they suc ceeded in getting the next session of this organization to meet in Denver. Mrs. Monroe Thompkins has re turned from California. Gabbert as a Democratic campaign issue has been a failure. In the first place, the people do not take kindly tu criticism of the highest tribunal in the state except upon the most incon- trovertible evidence of improper influ- ence or gross incompetency. They recognize that the intricacies of the law are too much for the lay wind, THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. ‘and hesitate to take the demogague’s ranting about it. It was easy to score Gabbert when no voice was raised in his de- fense. Now the Republicans apart from pointing to the results for peace and prosperity are educating the peo- ple in the salient points of the cases that have been so much discussed. It takes no knowledge of legal lore to know that there must be somewhere tn the statutes provisions whereby the state can defend itself when its integ- rity is attacked, the same as a private individual, can defend him- self and be within his rights. In the last state election Democracy was the first to ask the help of the Supreme Court in having watchers ap- Pointed at the polls to insure an hon- est election. It was granted its re quest in two counties in this state and denied in two where it was itself in power, and where common sense showed that it could not possibly fear fraud from Republicans. The Repub- licans’ request was granted in Den- ver where the fraudulent practices of Democracy had come to be known the country over. It followed that if the court was right in granting these re quests—and both parties agreed to it before election—the punishment of the election crooks who disobeyed its edicts was also right. The truth Is that Democracy wanted the services of ‘the court to prevent fraud when Re- publicans were guilty and not when it was, This is the plain truth and it finds that Gabbertism is far less useful as campaign thunder the more people who understand it. | The Moyer case is another. Moyer was arrested under martial law. Mar- ea law in its very essence is an ad- Mission that ordinary government has failed, that the executive and judiciary branches can no longer insure the rights of citizenship. How, then, ip | the name of common sense could there be any appeal to courts when martial law is in force? The truth is taat De mocracy has not been content to limit its criticism of the Supreme Court to {ts decisions, but has piled all the odium which Peabody as executive head of the state, incurred in his hand- ling of the Cripple Creek trouble. In- asmuch as the executive and judiciary departments are separate and each re- sponsible directly to the people for the performance of duty and not amen- able the one to the other, the Su: Preme Court could not pass on the pro- priety of establishing martial law in Cripple Creek, for that, under the con- stitution, is the prerogative of the gov- ernor. Democracy has ovarshot itself and had best keep on blaming Buchtel for the popularity of the cantaloupe. Gab- bert is the modern prototype of the old Roman judges. Justice has veen dealt out impartially and without the slight- est deviation, though his life has been in danger. The Republican ticket {s standing squarely on the issue of good government. It is offering the fullest opportunity for investigating its past administration. It is the party that is distinctly American. Its mistakes it will profit by. The future lies beyond and while Democracy is looking for mud to throw it will push on. Vote the Republican ticket in November. There is a joker in the automatic telephone. “Automatic” is applied to 80 many good things that one is prone to give the “automatic” phone the benefit of the doubt. Under the pres- ent system, with an experienced oper- ator to call one’s attention to lis er. rors and with her own minimized by thorough training, telephone has shortcomings. This is true, even though “central” tests your phone tells you why your party does nol an- swer, calls them when disengaged, even sends a messenger in stubborn cases of no-answer, and does many other such things. Now suppose that each subscriber becomes his own op- Perator in an automatic system and as. sume that the telephone responds per- fectly to the operator and has no me- chanical defects. There's the rub. The instrument is too automatic. Even watches, common as they are, and cer- tainly simpler than an automatic phone, with no demand on the user except winding, in the majority of cases do not receive proper handling from the users and give accurate re sults. The inexpert public will fare badly with the more delicate automatic telephone, and the worst of it is that when the first goes wrong it carries with it the other which is called. Right here is where the joker in the auto ‘matic argument gets busy. The new company claims superiority over the old because there will be no party lines. Omitting considerations of the increased cost of the service, they pro pose over the present, and the useless ness of unlimited service in most cases, the new company will have te prove wherein its phones are individ ual. Its great claim is that each sub scriber has free and unlimited access to all others. If, now, on a party line of ten (which is the largest in use) only four users can interfere either by accident or design and one has centra to appeal to to stop the meddler wherein is that service less desirable that one which anyone can meddle and there is no central or anyone else to tell who interferes? Think of the possibilities of a business rical put ting one’s phone out of commissior by simply connecting up and leaving {t that way! Consider the increasu errors due to inexpert operating which will make the same result! Just think these over and vote the sensible way on the franchise question. lt is possible that Democracy has county ticket. Certainly it has int some bad ones from the standpoint of the colored voter. One of the mo important offices in the country is that of coroner. Its importance can be judged from the fact that in case of the sheriff being prevented from per- forming the police duty for the county it is ihe coroner upon whom it de- volves, The Democrats have nomi!- nated for coroner W. P. Horan, an un- dertaker of this city. The suave cour- tesy that is part of his business, makes him a pleasing personality, especially when the other fellow has something he wants, but colored citizens who look back upon his record when he filled this position before know him for what he is. It is one of the good things about the Catholic church that it is not 8o filled with color prejudice as some Protestant denominations, but even religious surroundings do not Operate to prevent Horan from show- ing his claws when Negroes are con- cerned. It was nothing less than out- Tageous that our first colored under- taker, A. T. Moore, was put to such unusual means to gain possession cf bodies that came into Horan’s hands 46 coroner, though Moore had proper euthority from relatives, Fairness cut ‘Do figure with him, proper authority was ridden over rough shod and petty = resorted to to cripple a Negro business. Yet all the while a hypo- critical smile and pretty, talk would) mask his actions. It is culpable to the highest degree that colored people ‘Should give business to such white ‘men with colored men in competition. ‘It will be a crime against our race to ‘Place even the remote bosstbility of po- lice power in Horan’s hands when his bias has been made so evident. Law ‘gives a black man no protection in At- tanta and if the sheriff should have his power delegated to the coroner we will have to depend upon ourselves here, if Horan Is elected, There is a fellow by the name of Hoyt who has ccine into a lot of no- toriery in the “reform” movements that have been vexing the city and county during the last year. He may be a nice white man, He may be hon- estly desirous that the thieves who are in office get out—that he may Lave a turn at the ple counter. But may the g00d Lord deliver us from having to come into court with him as the pre siding judge. It was only a year ago that a colored boy was playing on the footbail team of the Agricultural Col- lege. He came down to the Rreat game to be played here in Denver. A rum- bus was stirred up, it was cemanded that the Agricultural College with- draw him from the team because of his color. Hoyt was the representa- Uve of the school that kicked. Remon- strance on the unsportsmanlike atti- tude that he took did not avail. It is said that he is a Republican—one of the “reform” kind. He certainly be- & LOCAL NOTES Boys Wanted-At the Alamo hotel, Colorado Springs, by the head bellman, L. T. Wilson. To have your teeth put in perfect order see Dr. Harper, 917 Twenty-first street.

What a world of meaning lies in that statement! In a few weeks, beginning November 12th and ending November 18th, there will be a celebration of the fortieth anniversary of the church, but probably not in all its history has it taken such a momentous step as this simple statement records. Originally the owner of two lots upon which the church edifice stands, it has come now to own six, the two between it and the corner having been purchased a few months ago. The first rays of hope and light that crossed the cloudy sky of our race came from religion. Now the bright sun of industrial opportunity begins to appear upon the Denver horizon, and to the Zion Baptist Church belongs the credit. True, there have been other corporate efforts, but none has involved so many people, none has gone along so quietly and so successfully as this, and none will be so far reaching in effect. It has not been made public what disposition the church will make of the property it has acquired, but certainly if the postoffice should come to Eighteenth street, as seems probable, it will have a valuable asset, and with so much enterprise shown thus far, it is safe to leave the disposition of it to the future.

We are not wards of the government, nor aliens to be set aside in reservations or exiled to Africa. We will point the way to better things and Zion Church is a pioneer among us in so doing. To praise the work done and omit mention of the captain who led would be to fail of our full duty. Rev. J. E. Ford has almost closed the seventh year of his pastorate at Zion—the longest in the history of the church. Its unity and progressiveness are in a large degree a reflection of his own single-mindedness and push. Slowly but surely he has inculcated the lesson and well has it been learned. It is no less praise for the people that they have such a leader. We wish him all success in his pastorate. We congratulate the church in having him to lead. We congratulate the community by being blessed with both. NEWS FROM ELKDOM Rice Lodge No. 39, I. B. P. O.
