BITTERLY HOSTILE Against the Colored Soldier, but the Big Wheel of Time Sets all Things Even TO CRUCIFY MANKIND ON THE COLORED LINE EIGHTEENTH YEAR. BITTERLY Against the Col the Big Wheel all Thin For some unexplained reason Senator Warner of Missouri has been bitterly hostile to the colored soldiers who have testified before the Military Affairs Committee of the Senate. His attitude would seem to indicate that he will not again have the opportunity to serve in the Senate of the United States. Should he ever wish to reach the Senate, he cannot do so without the vote of the colored people, whose self-elected prosecutor he has become by his course in the soldier investigation. It may be that he fears the President's popularity in the West; but this should not deter him from doing his duty and according justice to all men. The time of the colored man will come again, and they will remember the man who has tried to crucify innocent soldiers of their race in order to uphold the government in the wrong it has done them. TO CRUCIFY MA ON THE In this crucial period for the Colored American, reason and argument rather than harshness and invective should characterize the attitude of the molders of public opinion among us. The times are fraught with so much that it is dangerous to the general weal that it becomes us all to carry with us not only the radical elements of our common country, but those people who do the real thinking for the future. We have appreciated this fact more and more as events have impressed upon us this supreme necessity. While on some of the questions and men we will not and cannot make any compromise, not even a lull in the unceasing conflict, we must ap- --- DENVER, COLO., FRIDAY MARCH 8, 1907. THE FARCE ABOUT OVER. It has recently been announced that the testimony of the discharged soldiers of the twenty-fifth regiment is about finished, and that the committee has adjourned to meet again March 11. The next men to be called will be the white officers and the citizens of Brownsville. These are the men who are relied upon to make out a case against the soldiers, the soldiers themselves having said no word that would lead to the belief that they have been guilty of any wrongdoing. In furtherance of this plan, the government is doing all it can to break down the solid front put up by innocent soldiers. But the Executive has in Senator Foraker a foeman worthy of his steel. He is the man who is going to get at the truth of the matter. Let us leave the case with him. P. S. TWISTER. INKIND THE COLORED LINE peal to reason and carry with us in the upward march, the best there is in the nation. And in this work it is but right that we should have respect for the opinions of others; but we must scorn any and all men who are one thing to white men and another to black men. In this attitude we cannot fail; in this flight we must not shrink one inch from the position we have taken, and we are going to strike trimmers and cowards whenever one's head rises above the surface. We will not be silenced by silver and gold, but will continue to appeal to reason and mold that sentiment which we feel is for the good of all the people throughout all time. We are neither for nor --- MOVING TOWARD EQUALITY AND FAIR PLAY ```markdown ``` against a man, as such, we are guided by principle and eternal truth. Position and glory, emolument and power, hold no alluring lights for us; destiny dictates a higher duty and forces us to conform to a better law. We have made similar pronouncements before, but we repeat it, lest we forget, and in forgetting fail in a duty which ought to be carried to its full development, that the rewards of its virtue may be realized in a better day for the higher destiny of mankind. THE CARDOZO TROUBLE At this writing we are not able to say what the outcome of the Cardozo trial will be. When this comes from the press it will have been decided. We know now, and we hope that it can be shown at the trial, that the effort to put Cardozo out of the system is not for the good of the schools. On the other hand, it is vehemently The New York Age very properly replies to the arguments made by Governor Jelks of Alabama on the question of separate schools and the employment of white to teach colored youth. Just by such an argument is advanced in the state where Tuskegee is situated we are not able to say. It was our impression that Tuskegee was doing a wonderful work; setting an example of what the south really wants the Negro to do. But to have the governor of the state where the school is situated make the astounding statement makes us wonder what the white south really wants. Can it be that it fears that Negro teachers will instrust the Negro youth that they are the equal of whites? or does it hope for the return of the good old days of slavery, as they were pleased to call them? Have we come to the place in our history when the enunciation of industrial reconciliation between the whites and blacks is about to fail? Has the Wizard lost his wand that he can no longer stay the tide which, according to the philosophy of Jelks, is sweeping the Negro race back into slavery? It is better to stand erect and con- FIVE CENTS A COPY asserted by those higher up, there is a deep laid political plot to make room for someone; hence Cardozo must be removed. Time and time again this rumor has come to our ears and we have denied. From the very first we have argued that no such thing could happen while Mrs. Terrell is a member of the board of education and while Dr. Chancellor is our superintendent. When this argument was advanced it was stated that Mr. Robert H. Terrell was to be made the assistant superintendent of colored schools through the influence of his wife as a member of the board of education. This we denied. We stated then, and we state now, that such a scheme is so low, so repugnant to a sense of honor and decency, so vile and subversive of justice and right that the school board cannot, with Mrs. Terrell, always so able, upon it, do the thing which a cowardly rumor has stated would be done. Cardoso ought to be saved; he is the best man of color in our public schools today Dr. Winfield Scott Montgomery to the contrary notwithstanding. tendfor the right, fair play and justice now. It is useless to compromise with wrong; bear it only when you cannot avoid it; and never preach a doctrine to a struggling people that will, in the long run, work their ruin. It is better to stand for the IDEAL and lose something, leaving those who come after you to get the larger good, rather than attempt to gain the whole by compromise and submission and lose all. We are all moving on toward equality. Those of us who do not hope to realize it here, believe we will hereafter. No matter whither we turn or to what forces we appeal, the aim of all mankind is EQUALITY. To deny this is worst than folly. This is the only way.

It may break the hearts of certa la newly rich persons to be forced into the background, but it seems that the giving of costly presents at weddings is ceasing to be required absolutely, says the New York Press. Glad news, however, for the folk who try to maintain a place in society's forefront on small incomes and who really have to cut down household expenses to the starvation point to be able to give here, and give there, and give otherwhere as the daughters of various acquaintances are married off. A gladsome morning sun of relief has beamed in this spring's season of weddings. Judging from the displays of presents there is a revival of the custom, long considered old-fashioned, of sending framed etchings and engravings. That the giving of silver has been overdone was shown recently by the announcement that one of the wealthy young brides of last year had sent a large quantity of such gifts to a second-hand shop. Dealers in etchings and engravings say that within the last two months they have sold more pictures for wedding gifts than in any like period in the last ten years. As these pictures range from $30 to $200 in price and are reproductions by famous etchers of even more famous paintings, they are acquisitions to any home and the chances of duplication are decreased materially. --- MRS.

NOTARY & MORRATO Family Use Fine Wines No danger from THORNS, CACTUS, PINS, NAILS, TACKS or GLASS. Serious punctures, like intentional knife cuts, can be vulcanized like any other tire. Two Hundred Thousand pairs now in actual use. Over Seventy-five Thousand pairs sold last year. 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 $5.50 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. We will also send one nickel plated brass hand pump and two Sampson metal puncture closers on full paid orders (these metal puncture closers to be used in case of intentional knife cuts or heavy gashes). Tires to be returned at OUR expense if for any reason they are not satisfactory on examination. 2200-2204 CHAMPA ST. OF HIGH GRADE We are perfectly reliable and money sent to us is as safe as in a bank. Ask your Postmaster, Banker, Express or Freight Agent or the Editor of this paper about us. If you order a pair of these tires, you will find that they will ride easier, run faster, wear better, last longer and look finer than any tire you have ever used or seen at any price. We know that you will be so well pleased that when you want a bicycle you will give us your order. We want you to send us a small trial order at once, hence this remarkable tire offer. WHISKIES OOASTER-BRAKES, built-up-wheels, saddles, pedals, parts and repairs, and everything in the bicycle line are sold by us at half the usual prices charged by dealers and repair men.

We are glad to mention the above triumphal tour by Mrs. Terrell for the reason that she has assumed that this Bureau has been and is hosile to her. But we do not feel hostile to Mrs. Terrell. We differ with her and have thought many times that she was supporting a false and pernicious propaganda; in short she has allied herself with that school of thought which has forced us to take such a view of her. We are glad, however, to note the fact that she has had greater honor thrust upon her. We never wish to be less magnanimous than the occasion requires. Mrs. Terrell is a member of a school board of Washington, D. C., which has made quite a record recently. PROMOTED IN SERVICE Influence of Charles W. Anderson. There is considerable discussion going the rounds in New York just at this time over the recent accomplishment of Mr. Charles W. Anderson, the U. S. Internal Revenue Collector, this city, on account of his party co-workers over the "dead line" formerly maintained in two of the Government departments; one in the Postoffice Department no higher than clerkships. Last week, however, through the individual efforts of Mr. Anderson, the postmaster, Mr. William R. Wilcox, appointed Mr. Alexander King as Assistant Superintendent, assigning him to the Wall Street Branch of the New York Postoffice. The significance of the appointment is this, that an Assistant Superintendent is a member of the commissioned force of the Postoffice, and is in line for promotion to all places, up to that of Assistant Postmaster. The "dead line," hitherto, has been at the position of clerk, no colored man ever having been made an Assistant Superintendent in this city since the Postoffice was established. Mr. King's assignment to the Wall Street Branch, makes him Assistant Superintendent of the richest territory in the United States. The other promotion secured by Mr. Anderson was that of Mr. Solomon Johnson as Immigration Inspector at Ellis Island. This brings two colored men within the charmed circle of commissioned officers. Mr. Johnson and Mr. King are very competent and representative citizens of New York. HAVE REACHED THE HEIGHT. How stale and unprofitable are the sayings and acts of demagogues; and how careful ought a country to be to see to it that none of this class gets into places of power. Demagogues THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORAD and liars die; they never become great. But some men attain unto greatness. Lincoln, Sumner and Foraker have reached this height. And with Abbott we would say: "Great men are great in chains, great in prison, great in death." Long live Foraker. LOCAL NOTES FURNISHED HOUSE FOR RENT —Four rooms. Apply at 2237 Champa street. D. W.

Then again, Longfellow immortalized the ancient river in his “Evangeline.” There is a certain some. ‘thing, say, dreaminess, which takes hold of one, and enthralled by the haze of the sunshine and mist you look | upon the commonplace as sunshine. At St. Martinsville the widespread ing “Evangeline oak” is near the bridge, and one can almost see the cove into which the skiff was drawn as Gabriel passed up the stream, each wandering in search of the other, and the thick undergrowth cf palms and vines obscuring the gaze from the passer-by. The town itself seems to have changed but little, a settlement more or less, The creole French is spoken {n shops and market. Narrow brick pavements, shaded by galleries are built out to the curb, pavements always spoken of as “banquettes.” The white chapel with its graveyard, with two brick oven graves, claimed *d be those of the two romantic lovers, adds greatly to the impression that you have stepped out of the busy world for a time and cannot realize that somewhere electric cars are dashing through streets or imagine traffic stopped to allow some scurrying pe. destrian to edge to a crossing.

Cheyenne is enjoying the finest of spring weather. The trees have begun to bud out, the grass to get green and the birds have made their appearance. Miss Lena Hopkins, who is attending Lincoln Institute, at Jefferson City, is doing good in her studies, and is well satisfied with her location. Messrs. William Thistle and Albert Palmer, who returned from Puta, stricken with malaria fever, are both able to be at work again. Mr. Simon Smith was called to Fulton, Mo., by the death of her aged mother. She has been a long sufferer of tuberculosis. Mr. George Mitchell, who has been running in the Union Pacific passenger service as train porter, has left the service and is working in Cheyenne. Mrs. Simon Smith, who has been complaining for some time, became very ill on Saturday, and for a time it was feared she would not recover. She is greatly improved at this time. Mrs. Frank Gaskin was on the sick list last week. The troops of the Tenth U. S. cavalry, who have been stationed at Fort Russell for some time, left Friday morning for the Philippine islands, where they will probably be stationed for two years. The soldiers and their wives, whom they took with them, will prove a great loss in church and society circles, to which they always contributed quite liberally. They leave an excellent reputation for good behavior and manly conduct. On Tuesday evening, February 26, the U. B. F. club and the young ladies gave a farewell reception and dance in honor of the colored troops. As the weather was good a large crowd attended, and the affair proved to be one of the social events of the season Thursday evening, February 28, was spent with the Women's Searchlight club, and a large audience was entertained by the following program from Dunbar's Works: 1. Roll call. Response with a quotation from Dunbar. 2. Song and chorus, "Our Dunbar," Mrs. J. E. Smith and club. 4 Autobiography of Dunbar, Mrs. C. G. Ashford. 6. Instrumental solo, "A Polish Dance," Miss Eva Hopkins 7. Recitation, "Black Sampson of Brandywine," Mrs. G. Mitchell. . Reading, "The Missing Heroes," Mrs. Wm. Dewese. 9. Vocal solo, "The Rosary" (Nevin), Mrs. B. T. Gaskin. 10. Recitations, (a) "Speaking at the Co't House;" (b) "De Cullid Band," Mrs. Wm. H. Redd. 11. Vocal solo, "The Promise of --- THE S.ATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. Life" (Cohen), Mrs. E. F. Landor. 12. Reading (a) "De Pality," (b) "When Malindy Sings," Mr. Curtis A. Wird. 13. Instrumental solo, overture, "Morning, Noon and Night," Mrs. Jo. A. Baker. Mrs. H. C. Jefferson was in charge of the program Mr. James Smith is putting an addition on to his residence, which will greatly improve its appearance. Mr. Smith is one of our young men who have made a good start during the short time he has resided in Cheyenne. Quarterly meeting services were held on Sunday, February 24, at Allen's A. M. E. church. The Steward's Department reported having raised $44.00 during the quarter. Rev. James A. Hubbard delivered three sermons in an able manner during his stay. CHURCH NOTES. The congregation of the Church of the Redeemer will have the pleasure of hearing special Lenten preachers at both services on Refreshment Sunday, the 10th. The morning service at 11 o'clock will be taken by the Rev. Geo. H. Holoran, B. D., and the solemn choral evensong at 7:30 by the Rev. W. P. Williams, rector of St. Paul's. Father Williams is a young and eloquent priest, who has recently come into the diocese, and no one should miss the opportunity of hearing and greeting him. Both the visiting clergy are greatly interested in the mission and its success. All friends are cordially invited. Mrs. Carrie Thomas has returned to the city from Hot Springs. Since God has deigned to remove our beloved mother, we desire to thank friends and acquaintances for their kindness during the recent illness of our dear mother. WALLACE A. SIMPSON, BERTHA E. JOHNSON, BENJAMIN E. WOODS. The Taka Art Club will give a candy pulling at the home of Mrs. Clinkscale, 2828 Welton street, next Thursday evening. All other clubs in the city are invited.

The quarterly services of Shorter Church which were held the first of the week were the best in many years. They were the banner ones for the whole four years of Kev. Dyett's pastorate. The spiritual condition of the church has been brought up to the highest pitch by the revivals. A singular fact about these was that no evangelists were called in, but the pastor and his faithful workers with the assistance of the local clergy, did it all. A pool has been put in the basement and last Sunday there were baptised, Chas. Gaskins, Charles Clark, Mrs. Sadie Bland and Miss Dona Nelson. There have been five conversions and ten accessions to the church. PRESBYTERIANS PROGRESSING The People's Presbyterian Church held a most successful fair last week. It has also made a payment on its church property. The financial side of the church is being well maintained and at the present rate, it will soon be in possession of as fine property as any congregation of this denomination west of the Alleghanies. LARAMIE, WYOMING A colored employee at the rolling mill has his foot mashed last week. The spring term of court begins Monday, March 11th, and we are all anxious to know how Mr. Robinson will come out. Mr. Christian and Mrs. Jackson of Hanna are in the city, where they expect to remain until after the operation of Mrs. Christian. Mesdames Rhone and Price are contemplating a trip to Cheyenne. Rev. Brannon of Cheyenne is ex-pected to preach here Wednesday evening. Rev. Hill is with us again after a visit to Denver and Colorado Springs. PUEBLO, COLO. Mr. McAllister, son-in-law of Mrs. S. W. Byrd, arrived in Pueblo from Joliet, Ill., accompanied by his little daughter and will make this their home. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. Mrs. Earl of Colorado Springs is visiting in the city. Also Miss Clyde Collins ofthe Springs. Rev. Owens has entirely recovered from his recent illness. The Eighth Street Baptist church has closed a very successful revival meeting carried on by Rev. A. Wilson of Kansas City, one of the most able and eminent ministers in the Baptist church. Ms. C. C. Clark of Denver yas also here in the interest of the meeting and sang the spirit into the hearts of many. St. John's Methodist ihurch began their revival meetings last Sunday and will continue two weeks. Mr. W. A. Gatewood, who has held a position of trust as exchange clerk in one of the banks of Pueblo for 20 years, resigned his position in order to take charge of a very valuable ranch he has near Colorado Springs, and will leave in a few days. Mr. Gatewood's family will not leave until June. On last Tuesday Mrs. J. P. Watson, at her beautiful home, 1101 Palmer avenue, entertained at an elaborate dinner, a number of her friends. Those present were Rev. J. C. C. Owens and wife, Mrs. S. W. Byrd, Mrs. W. B. Townsand, Mrs. Fannie Williams, Mrs. Oscar Baker and mother, Howard, Rev. Jordan Allen and Mr. Dick Johnson. Quarterly meeting will be held at St. John's church Sunday, Rev. Watson presiding. We have in our city a colored drug store, viz., the Peerless Drug Co., located at 424 Northern avenue, where our people may find everything in drugs, medicines, chemicals and toilet articles. Physicians' prescriptions accurately compounded. We have in our community several negro doctors, but one we give special mention—Dr. De Frantz. He is making a record here among his people, and when we are in need of medical aid we should give him a call, as those who have been unfortunate enough to have to have a physician's attention say he is fully competent and fully able to properly diagnose and treat your case where the most skilled treatment is required. And with all else, he is a devout Christian gentleman. A great many colored people with their families are moving into Pueblo. Pueblo is becoming quite a place for the colored people. Quite a number are holding positions of trust in several public places. They are buying beautiful homes, furnishing them accordingly and making a good showing for themselves, which is very commendable and noteworthy of mention. --- Harris' Orchestra VAUDEVILLE AND DANCE t Turner URSDAY EVENI rch 28 Eight Specialties DANCING General Admi WM.

CIGARS AND TOBACCO Dick Frazier, Mgr. At Any Rate When He Had Given a Demonstration She Called Encore. "I have just joined an anti-kissing club," said the beautiful girl. "Why, do you believe kissing is dangerous?" asked the man, according to the Chicago Record-Herald. "It depends on what you mean by dangerous. If you mean to ask me whether I am afraid of microbes, I can say that I am not. I believe a great deal of this microbe talk is absolutely ridiculous. As far as catching microbes is concerned, I shouldn't hesitate a moment to—to—" "To permit that sweet mouth of yours to be kissed by the right man," he suggested. "Well, if you want to put it that way you may," she returned. "But I wouldn't put it just that way. May I show you how I would put it? "I am waiting for you to do so." He gently placed one hand against the back of her splendidly poised head, placed the fingers of his other very tenderly under her pretty chin, then with a deft movement which, as far as she was concerned, was absolutely painless, tilted her face upward and, bending forward, completed the process with an ease and a naturalness that left her with absolutely no cause for criticism. After it was all over he asked: "Won't you tell me now why you joined the anti-kissing club?" "Because — because," she sighed, "there's such a thrill, you know, about doing anything that would get you into trouble if it were found out—and then it gave me a chance to introduce the subject, too.

Phone Main 8173 TRAMPS ON THE RAILROADS Perilous Chances Taken by Hobos While "Decking the Train." According to a conductor whose run is west from Chicago no feat performed by the tramp while beating his way on a railroad equals in daring that known on the road as "decking the train." To deck a train one rides on top of the cars—a sleeper, preferably, since the method is one employed only at night. Its great advantage over other positions is that here the tramp traveler may squat undisturbed at all stops. Flat on the cap top, on the darker side of the station, he usually escapes detection; more often, at any rate, than the man who dismounts at every station. Once on top, therefore, it may be an all-night ride, for the only men whose eyes fall on these car roofs in the course of regular business are those who once in a while refill the ice water tanks, which oftentimes open on the roof. Either the vestibule work on the end sleeper or the stepladder on the engine tender will serve as a stepping stone to the car top, although there are men nimble enough to scale the height from a vestibule platform. In any case, the successful rider needs move quickly and unobserved, mindful all the time that one misstep may mean death by the wheels. On deck the passenger finds security in clinging, perhaps, to a small gaspipe—not unlike a fly on the back of a trotter—exposed to burning cinders, a wind of hurricane force and the fatal swinging curves. On these some fast trains, as well as on slower passengers, tramps ride "blind baggage" day and night. To go blind baggage is to ride the front end of a baggage car, which, ordinarily, has a platform, but no doorway. With the end of the car thus built solid, hobo travelers on the platform have an excellent lounging place, out of immediate sight of the engineer and fireman, and yet affording all the beauty of fleeting landscape without any of the inconveniences of an overcrowded day coach. RIGHT8 OF THE SLEEPER. Cleveland Newspaper in Defense of a Bad Practice. A Daniel-come-to-judgment in Memphis, Tenn., recently fined a church member $20 for snoring in church. He called it a breach of the peace and treated it accordingly. And now there is every evidence of profound dismay among the brethren. They are for the most part inclined to assert that sleeping in church is only a breach of etiquette at the worst. As for snoring, that's something over which the offender has no control. He shows unconsciously and involuntarily. It is the result of a peculiar construction of his piping outfit, a construction that was carried to completion without his supervision, and certainly without his consent. From this point of view the judge was clearly wrong in inflicting punishment upon the innocent victim of an unfortunate flaw in construction. At the same time the members do not show any overwhelming desire to carry the case to a higher court. They are too much stunned, as it were, to do anything—except pay the fine. But the time may be coming in Memphis, or elsewhere, when the right of a man to sleep where he pleases, and to garnish that sleep by trombon or other nasal form of accompaniment, will be fully tested and defined.—Cleveland Plain Dealer THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO.

Anderson is the right kind of stuff. When he was appointed U. S. Internal Revenue Collector of New York we hoped great things for him, and now our fondest expectations are coming to pass. Because of his ability, and also as recognition of the colored Republicans in general, he was given this peerless position, and like the gentleman he is, thorough and honest, loyal and true, he now reaches down the helping hand and lifts others of us to heights we have not before attained. Alexander King has been appointed through his efforts to assistant superintendent of the Wall Street Branch Postoffice and is thereby in line for promotion to any place for which he is qualified. Solomon Johnson has also gone within the charmed circle, being appointed an immigration inspector because of his support. In the days long ago, the tribes of our fathers way off in the wilds of our fatherland, used to elevate on their shields the chieftans whom they were pleased to obey. Their triumphant war songs are no more, we have no shields to hold aloft, furnishing a living throne for our leaders, but the spirit still lives and our hearts cast about such men as Anderson as strong bands of affection and homage as ever the weapons of war showed for our ancestors to those they elevated. NATIONAL BUSINESS LEAGUE. This year the National Business League will meet at Topeka, Kansas. After having been the guests of the largest and most cultured cities of the East and South, this important gathering of leading Negroes has come to the far West. At the time that this location was determined upon, Prof. Booker T. Washington and his coterie of advisers and assistants thought that the contact of Western Negroes with the successful men of the East and South 8 THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO.

They have literally brought the mountain to Hahomet, and it is for us to say whether we shall profit thereby. Our local and state business leagues have long needed some spur to be more than mere social organizations. They now have the opportunity of drinking deep of the accumulated business wisdom of the race. Preliminary to this should be a thorough-going organization with a strong representation at Topeka. To go as individuals will mean something, but to go enmasse with a special car will be more effective. There are great things to be done in this western country. Let us form our boosters' clubs and both by our personal solicitation and adequate advertising seek to secure high class immigration to our state. The splendid opportunities for schools, the climate, the profitable investments to be made in agricultural land, in mines, in stock raising, and in business conducted for both races or either, make this our golden opportunity to both profit ourselves directly and possibly at the same time secure a greater advantage indirectly by the influx of the enterprising Negroes of the South and East. Let us make haste to prepare for this opportunity. A PUBLIC, NOT A PRIVATE MATTER. For more than a year there has existed in this state a special effort to secure an exhibit of colored people's work for the Jamestown exposition. This came about through the appointment of a special colored commissioner for Colorado by Governor McDonald. Since this appointment there has been an organization effected with various officers to perform stated duties. From the character of this move, it is a fair presumption on the part of the public that it should know something of the progress of a move ```markdown ``` TERMS. ment that is intended for its welfare. In the absence of definite information, there have lately risen some ugly rumors of misappropriation of money sent from various sources. The high character of many persons who have lent themselves to the movement ought to be a guarantee that all is as it should be. But human nature is not such that it will take for granted that THE M.

Casey, 2557 Clarkson street, last Wednesday evening happened an unusually enthusiastic rehearsal of Holley's orchestra. The several members of the organization upon hearing of the departure of their leader resolved that they would perpetuate this organization and keep it in a flourishing condition until he returned. Arrangements were perfected by which Mr. J. H. Rhodes, a violinist of great ability, has been secured to lead and direct. Mr. Monroe Tompkins was retained as business manager, as he has proven to all his ability to successfully handle the affairs of the organization. After a very pleasant social time the various members bade their leader God speed. R. G. Holley desires to thank the many friends who have so kindly patronized his orchestra in the past and to assure them in his absence the same service will be rendered at the usual price. Mr. Thompkins presented to Mr. Holley upon his departure a token of esteem, which although a great surprise was highly appreciated. The Commonwealth LIFE ASSOCIATION OF DENVER, COLORADO.

Sample is in receipt of a letter from Omaha which states that one of the white stockholders in the Golden Chest mine has been offered a block of Goldfield shares of four times the number for his holdings in the Golden Chest. The offer was refused point blank, for the owner predicts that before a year stock in the Colorado mine will be away above par. Mr. Sample informs us that the emergency stock is being rapidly gobbled up by buyers who know a good thing in mines. A YEAR'S PREMIUM FROM ANY CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE OTHERS CAN Benefits Paid Weekly.
