JUSTICE BE GINS TO DAWN EIGHTEENTH YEAR. JUSTICE B GINS (Burrowsville is still in the public gaze, and Senator Foraker is showing himself the great lawyer as he has shown himself the great statesman. His masterful presentation in the investigation now in progress is without a parallel in the history of the country; and it seems to us that he has built up a case so strong that the friends of the president will never be able to shake it. Try as they will, they are facing a dilemma such as no president has ever faced, and with which the president is not able to cope. When the president sent his several messages to congress dealing with the Brownsville matter, he referred to the highly respected citizens of Brownsville being attacked in their homes by "midnight assassins and men bent upon the injuring and killing of innocent women and children and this too, at a time when the people of the town were asleep and unprepared to make any resistance." But the evidence recently taken at the capitol shows that the town of Brownsville has a population of 8,000 and that there are not more than 1,200 decent families to be found in that town; and these are white people the president was pleased to call "respectable citizens" of the town of Brownsville. It is shown also by the testimony that the firing which occurred on the night of the shooting in Brownsville began outside the fort in an alley, and that these shots were fired from pistols. It is further shown that not one of the soldiers was seen to either go out of the reservation or go into it. And, strange to say, all this testimony is being given by white men, some of whom at least, do not like colored men, but who, in spite of their prejudices, cannot sit silently by and see innocent men punished without protesting against it. And besides, they see in this step, unseen and unchecked, the awful wrath of despotism and the slaughter of the innocents as of old. In other words, they see the very foundation of --- DENVER, COLO., FRIDAY MARCH 29, 1907. American liberty struck down. Most of the men are soldiers, not tin soldiers, but real soldiers who have fought for their country's welfare, and they know that if the president can wrong the humblest soldier or the humblest citizen without being made to account to some power for his act, that the time is not far distant when great and small alike will be in danger, and would have their liberties swept away by an unjust executive order, as was the case with the battalion of the 25th regiment. But in this case, as in many of the cases in the world's history, a man was brought forward by the occasion and the combination of circumstances to make a fight for the right, having in the fight the active support of only himself in the immediate battlefield, but who has borne himself like the Sumner of another day, and will live to see the fruits of his struggles crowned with the success for which he has stood so nobly throughout the weeks and months. When the fight respecting the Brownsville affair first began, Senator Foraker, we are sure, had no thought that it would ever be the monster it has become. Indeed, no one thought that the president would go so far as to discharge the whole battalion. The people of Brownsville themselves did not wish it done, and were as surprised as the soldiers when the fatal order was issued. And we venture the statement—if the president had not issued the order he issued, he would not at this time. It is not yet time to say what effect this whole matter will have upon the next presidential election; but that it will have an effect, all people who are in touch with the sentiment of the country well understand. ENDORSES FORAKER. The reports which have been sent out to the country that the leading colored men of Mississippi endorsed Senator Foraker for president are not correct. It is true that a number of Continued on page two JULIUS FIELDS LAID TO REST Floral tributes, impressive ceremonies, splendidly attired Elks, beautiful music and sympathetic people combined to attest the regard in which Julius W. Fields was held on the occasion of his funeral last Sunday at Zion church. Even from the morning services, the audience room was filled. More than five hundred people lined the streets besides all these, unable to get within the church. Rev. Ford conducted the services and paid a tribute to the memory of the dead that was touching. Many have said that this was his best effort since his pastorate here. He was assisted in the services by other ministers. The Elks had marched from their hall headed by a band to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Porter, where the remains lay, and escorted the hearse to the church and after the services they were again marshalled by Esquire James Cartwright and formed to proceed to Fairmount cemetery. The sombre attire of Elkdom, the stately notes of the funeral march and the sincere grief of the brethren, made the scene so impressive that those who witnessed it will never forget. But alas! nothing can recall the deeting breath. The sorrowing mother and brother and the more distant relatives and the friends must bear with the inevitable. A richer collection of floral offerings could not have been NO MORE MIDDLEMEN. Some months ago the collection of accounts in scattering locations was entrusted by this paper to a collection agency. Some have resented this and we have made a change back to the old method. Accounts will be sent directly from this office. It is business-like for patrons to acknowledge the receipt of such statements and to let us know the date when they will pay, if they cannot do so at once. With mutual courtesies and fairness, publisher and patron will both be benefited and we on our part will pledge our best endeavor to do all that falls to our share. FIVE CENTS A COPY ELDS TO REST brought together. From the societies and from friends they poured in to shame the grim monster as it were. Many went with the funeral party to the last resting place. The arrangements for the last sad rites were in charge of Undertaker Gilmore, and were conducted with rare excellence. The casket was of the couch pattern and the incumbent posture resembled rather the sleep of tired nature than of death. J. W. Jackson acted as master of ceremonies Rice Lodge of Elks did the handsome thing in appropriating their funeral benefit in the case of J. W. Fields, for according to their by-laws a person has to have three months full membership after initiation to enjoy this benefit. But out of respect to Mr. Fields though he had been a member only a month, he was given it. Another incident connected with the death was the rumor that diphtheria was responsible for it. To the satisfaction of all was the finding of the health department that the diagnosis of Dr. Faulkner was accurate and that there appeared no evidence of any other throat disease than tonsilitis. The postal clerks, of whom the diseased was a prominent member, reviewed the funeral procession from the Federal building. KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS TURN OUT The Knights of Pythias of the city held their annual thanksgiving ceremony at Campbell church Sunday afternoon. It was one of the largest assemblies of knights in the history of the order in the city. The procession was headed by the colored band and followed by the uniform rank with the grand officers in full regalia. The knights followed in good order. At the church they were met by the Court of Calanthe. The program consisted of several good numbers rendered by knights and ladies and an exceptionally fine sermon by Rev. Payne. A collection of $26.00 was raised. --- PAGE 10. THE EASTER OFFERING. To the Pastors of the Denver District of the A. M. E. Church: Dear Brethren—Time in its rapid flight will soon usher in another glad Easter day. Praises will ascend in songs of rejoicing to Him who became the first fruits of them that slept. As members of the militant church we risen Lord. I need only remind you hope to join in singing praises to our that our Easter offering has much to do with the success of our home and foreign mission work. In view of the fact that this is the last year of the Quadrennium, let the effort of the near approaching Easter be the grandest we have ever put forth on such an occasion.

There were 50,000 in the block and a second lot is now offered. and though the price has been raised to 10 cents, 20,000 are already bargained for. This is a good company for the investor to keep watch on and a better one to put his money in.

[THE UNION HEALTH AND ACC(- | <—_——eeseeeeeesee eee es ees The Azalia Hackley Choral Club is an established musical attraction. Shorter church held a good audience to hear it in a rendition of chorus work both classical and jubilee inter. spersed with several good individual numbers. Applause was long and loud after several numbers. The high standard of the whole organization makes individual praise unnecessary, yet it must be said that the female vices were superior to the male. Under the direction of A. A. Waller it is a reasonable hope that the club will go on from perfection to perfection until it will bear a reputation throughout the west as {t now does here at home.

The Afro-American Realty company of Philadelphia, with a capital stock of $50,000, has declared a dividend of 6 per cent. to all stockholders of record March 1, 1907. The company is only a year old, and in that time has acquired valuable properties in Philadelphia and in other places. It has recently purchas- uv uu sot pepunq eno kruen pe costia, Washington, D. C., near the old home of Frederick Douglass, which it proposes to sell to first-class people and develop into a model community. It is gratifying to note the success of this company, which has gone ahead without any horn blowing and made good for its investors. It scores another point for the race. Drs. G. L. Blackwell and J. S. Lennon and H. T. Kealing are the active officers in charge of this company. We are in receipt of unsigned notices from time to time which are emitted for lack of signature. Other contributors get economical and write their news on such small pieces of paper that they become lost among the larger sheets on which such matter is usually written. It is not often that matter is intentionally omitted where some good reason does not exist. Therefore persons will do well to conform to the easy regulations which govern matter for newspapers. Don't cuss the editor. Just look and see if you are not at fault. LADIES ATTENTION! Mrs. M. A.

FORD'S HAIR POMADE Formerly known as "OZOMIZED 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, harah, 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 removes and prevents dandruff, relieves itching, invigorates the scalp, stops the hair from falling out or breaking off, makes it grow and, by nourishing the roots, gives it new life and vigor. Being elegantly perfumed and harmless, it is a toilet necessity for ladies, gentlemen and children. Ford's Hair Pomade has been made and sold continuously since about 1855, and label, "OZONIZED OX MARROW," was registered in the United States Patent Office, in 1856. 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 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 ct. Sold by druggists and dealers. If your druggist or dealer can not supply you, you can get it for you from his/her or wholesale dealer or send us 50 ct. for one bottle postpaid, or $1.40 for three bottles or $2.50 for six bottles, express paid. We postage and express charges to your postal point in U.S. When order ing goes postal or express money order, and mention name of this paper. Write your name and address plainly to The Ozonized Ox Marrow Co. (None genuine without my signature) 153 E. KINZIE ST., CHICAGO, ILL. Agents wanted everywhere. OFFICE HOURS: Dr. Westbrook.

They thereby indi- cated what may be expected from the colored men of the North when the time comes. And those in power had just as well understand that they can- not buy the conventions, as of yore. Colored men have come to the place where they are going to stand for the man who stands for the right, and as they understand it, in its high- est acceptation, Senator Foraker is the statesman they have in mind. THE MAGNA-CHARTA, The Richards Literary Club met on last Thursday evening and rendered & program which consisted of the reading of a paper by Mr. H. J. Pin: kett and the rendition of a solo by Miss M. L. Evans and discussion, and criticisms by the critic. The paper which was read was upon “The Magna Charta.” It dealth with the struggle for liberty among the Greeks and Romans, the new philosophy enunciated by Jesus Christ, and how Christ had tried to lead men to liberty through his teachings, how his followers of that day had continued in the work of preaching the same doctrine, the de- velopment of the Germanic races, their overthrow of Rome in the ef- fort to realize the ideal which Christ had pronounced, how the Saxons de- veloped across the seas in England, of the sympathetic movement on the part of the Teutonic races to realize liberty, how the Feudal system was fastened upon England, how the peo ple resented the evil consequence of it, and finally how they threw off this system in the reign of King John in 1215 A. D, The paper also showed how, out of the Magna Charta, had grown the Bill of Rights, The Habeas Corpus Act, and of the impetus and inspiration it gave to Martin Luther, who was moved to utter his famous and uncompromising appeal and ery “Every man has a right to think for himself, to read his own bible and Pray to his own God according tto the dictates of his own conscience;” and later still how the Magna Charta was given to the American people through our own Declaration of Independence and the constitution of the United States. Counsellor A, S. Pinkett ex. plained the Feudal system and showed its relation and development Miss Clotilde Houston discussed the relationo f Magna Charta to other great movements, as outlined in the paper and Miss Hallie Brown took up the method of the development of the theme, stating that the style adopted was excellent, and brought in brief the whole truth of the great movement for liberty. The critic, Mr Ulyses Houston, gave a summary of the paper, mentioning it with muct praise, After the liberty program was over @ repast was served by Miss M. L Evans. In each plate for the guests was found a small card oa which was written a conundrum with the an Swer upon a card held by someone other than the party whose duty it was to read. Each conundrum had in it a philosophical idea and Mise Evans js to be congratulated for hay ing thought out such a splendid orig- inal and helpful plan. ___ THE COLORED TEACHER. It now seems that another trial is about to be had of one of the colored teachers of our system. Just where all this will end we cannot see, But the most startling thing that has hap- pened, so the people of Washington are saying, was the transfer of some of the best teachers from M Street High school to the Armstrong Man- ual Training school. Just what the outcome of all this will be we cannot say. But the people hint that Prin- cipal Jackson of M Street High school is wreaking vengeance upon all those who favored Mrs Cooper wnen she was principal of the school. Surely this thing cannot be. We feel that we have done enough in the school fight along certain lines, and for the present, at least, we say hands off. We are through for a time, What has gone out from this bureau has been sent in the hope that it would do good. It is hoped that this aim has not failed; but, on the matter for the future, we will indulge in “golden silence.” WON THE CuP. Arthur L, Curtis, son of Dr. and Mrs, A. M. Curtis of this city, who fs attending the Williston preparatory school, has recently won the silver cup, a prize which is annually awarded for the best individual de- bater in the schoo! in the debating contests which are held in March. This is the first time in the history of the school that « junior has car- ried off the honors in the debate, All Washington is very proud of the young man’s success, And _ his mother, who was present to witness the triumph of her son, is elated. The Press Bureau is glad to extend its heartiest congratulations to son, mother and father; for by this the race has been helped immeasureably and a young man given promise of still greater things, TRANSFERRED TO THE CAPITOL The battle against Senator Foraker has been transferred from the capital to the state of Ohio, Secretary Taft and Representative Burton, as per presidential order, are leading the fight. It is an effort to punish Sen- about the “shooting up” of Browns- ville. What will come of it, wise men ator Foraker for seeking the truth one penny for myself, I wanted to now see, Foraker will win in this fight for right as he has won in the past. He will do this regardless of the fact that the president of the United States is doing ail in his bower to bring about a rontrary re- sult. And Congressman Burton will never realize the ambitions which he {a prostituting his talents to achieve. (Continued on page three.)

In the past we have had occasion to refer to the Jamestown Exposition, or that part of it with which the Negro is concerned, and our comments were anything but favorable to the cause. This was true for several reasons. We did not believe we could make a truly creditable showing in an exhibit at the exposition, nor did we feel that we should be segregated from the other Americans while presenting the fruits of our progress in the many walks of life. Indeed, we felt that the part we played in the founding of Jamestown and the building of the great state in which she is situated, brings back to us memories, nor of progress, but of oppression and wrong. We hesitate in part for this cause. But when we behold Giles E. Jackson at the helm of the Negro department, we were convinced that it was formed for the purpose of degradation rather than help to the colored people of the country. We held this director-general up to the public gaze that they might know the man who was charged with doing much to make or mar the future, in his power, for us. Time, however, removed Director-General Jackson from the leadership, whose latter days were beclouded with cries of graft. In his place were placed responsible people who should have been in charge of the interests of the colored people in the beginning. And thus the bad beginning seems to have cleared away and with Mr. Galloway, Mr. Andrew F. Hilyer and Mrs. A. M. Curtis, who is a woman who stands for the highest and best for her race, as she understands it, directing affairs, success seems to be assured, insofar as the matter can be a success. By these comments we do not wish to dampen the ardor of anyone; we would have the best made of the worst, keeping in mind that we cannot afford to relinquish a principle in order to gain the glory and plaudits for today. But if we can be of service to the end that we can bring the best out of the worst, right out of wrong, and truth out of error, we gladly give our strength to that cause. At any rate, we have implicit confidence in Mrs. Curtis and those whom she directs. She is a woman of highest public spirit and tireless energy; and now that she is in the front, pushing the movement toward complete success, we give her and her associates our support, and say to those who cannot help her, do not hinder. FOR THE CAUSE OF JUSTICE. T Thomas Fortune, in the New York Age, makes much ado about A. B. Littlepage of the West Virginia legislature, taking a stand for the cause of justice where the Negro is concerned. This seems to be nothing new in West Virginia. But the part of the utterance which we dislike is the fact that West Virginia is called a Southern state. West Virginia is THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. no Southern state. It has stood with the great North on all of the questions which were calculated to give highest advancement to the cause of mankind. However, we are glad to see a clear-headed Democrat, even in West Virginia. TO INJURE THE NEGRO. A journalist by the name of Frank A. Munsey, owner of the Argosy Magazine, Munsey's Magazine, the Scrap Book and a Home Journal of some small circulation, owns and publishes a paper here, which he calls The Washington Times. This Times was started about four years ago, and from its birth has used every base method of yellow journalism to injure the Negro, thinking in this step to cater to the prejudices of the community in which his paper has a large circulation and win in the field of competition against the Washington Evening Star, a paper which is a model of true American journalism. But it has not been satisfied, even under the eye and personal supervision of Frank A Munsey, to falsify accounts concerning colored people; hence it issues an advertiser's folder which contains the very falsely significant paragraph: "Washington, the capitol of the Nation, has a population of 335,000, of which 95,000 are colored and are disregarded in the Himes' calculation. What is said below, therefore, applies wholly to the white population." Following this paragraph was one dealing with wealth and income which in nowise reckoned with the colored people, and then came the following: "The Times has not only not sought circulation among the colored people, but it has deliberately avoided it and in its news columns has shown emphatically that it is a paper for white people." The above is surely convincing, and we call upon the colored people all over the country to strike from their list of reading matter any and everything with which Frank A. Munsey has to do. He is using his organs to degrade you and debase you, and honor and self-respect demand that you resent his unjust imputation and contemptible slur and malicious falsehood. His Times is like the politician who never wants office. He always has his hand out for money; and while Frank A. Munsey is declaring he does not want colored people to take his paper, his agents are pleading with colored people to subscribe and his collectors are calling upon them as upon the whites. But the sad part of it is, some of the colored people continue to buy and read this penny sheet which was conceived in sin and born in iniquity. Strike back at this pernicious influence and crush this serpent's head; unless you prefer to submit to slander and abuse, rather than stand where you can and where it is your duty to stand, for the right. Touch not and handle not anything that comes from Munsey. We are now pleased to announce to the public that we are now locating at 20571/2 Larimer street with all kinds of hair goods and ornamental goods of all kinds, and we also announce we have a full line of millinery in the latest Parisian style in hats and bonnets of all kinds.

When I began my hair was no more than two inches long on an average. In the back where I tied it with a thread in order to attach a small braid I wore to in- crease looks, the hair on either side about two inches long was bare as the palm of the hand from tying and also pinning the braid. Mrs. Perkin’s advised me to throw away the braid and do as her treat- ments directed. I took my second treatment Dec 8, 1906. Now these spots had grown 80 as to almost bide the bald spots, My third treatment was Feb. 25, 1907. I am proud to say I can comb my hair up and {t is now about four inches long. Every- one who complies with Mrs. Perkins’ advice on hair will be blessed with a heavy head of hair. My hair fs still improving and I ever intend to thank and praise Mrs, Perkins’ remedy. | Yours truly, FLORENCE GATER. Miss Juanita Landor played a piano solo.

It was not so many years since that the utmost efforts of Mrs. E. Azalia Hackley, who was a woman of magnetic presence and immense energy and undisputed talent, were barely able to make a successful choral society and secure for it a hearing from the public. In contrast with this is the success of the Azalia Hackley Choral Club which is being maintained in a large part by her old pupils. As the years roll by its membership is increasing and the public is coming to a proper appreciation of the part that the arts play in life. Good audiences are now the rule when the club appears. Its members are doing good work in the church choirs and satisfying entertainment audiences. It was a fruitful beginning made many years ago and with the expanding population, we may confidently forward to even greater things. PRACTICING HIS OWN PREACHING. Telegraphic reports from Tuskegee, Alabama, of a few days ago reported that the auditing committee of the state of Alabama which inspected the books of Tuskegee Institute found business conducted in such a straight forward and lucid manner as to at once put an end to all agitation for legislation that would interfere with the work being done by Prof. Washington and his staff. This is gratifying. System and sound business are the two things which stand between the race and equality as much if not more than anything else. Whatever may be said of Prof. Washington, it still remains that he is a leader among us and his walk no less than his precept is forceful. We therefore feel glad that his school has confounded the enemy. Under the new law passed by the legislature this week, the insurance laws of the state are completely changed. One of the most important is the clause requiring the deposit of $10,000 with the state. This will drive out many of the stock and mutual insurance companies now in the state giving sick and accident benefits. It is fortunate that most of our people are carrying their benefits in fraternal orders which are not affected in any way by the new laws. PAGE 8. LUCKY FOR US. THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO.
