FRANKLIN'S PAPER THE STATESMAN POLITICS OCCASIONS A FEW COMMENTS When a Set of Political Managers Fail Utterly to Secure for the Race the Representation Usually Given Us and Are Turned Down in Requesting their Own Appointment,---Well, What Do You Think? TWENTY-FIRST YEAR POLITICS OCC When a Set of Political Man for the Race the Repres and Are Turned Down Appointment,---Well, W MANUEL WRITES US A LETTER. It has always been the custom of The Statesman to give space to articles bearing on public questions, regardless from what viewpoint they are written. It makes no difference whether we are in accord with the writer or not. We do not refuse articles criticising our position. We should be truthful and reasonable. If we are not, it is not because we do not wish to be; and when we fall into error as all humanity is prone to, it is best that our position be subjected to the white light or publicity that we may the sooner be set right. In accordance with that custom, we give space to the following article from James Jerold Manuel.—Editor. To The Statesman, Franklin's Paper: Dear Editor: In your issue of Oct. 8, 1910, appears an article, the caption of which is "Private Greed Cost Us Dear." If you had written the last sentence as it is given here, then there would have been one true statement contained in that article and no use of this question at all. "And so we might go on answering criticisms, but what's the use?" "Fair minded people can see from what is already said (in and by this article of Oct. 8th) they have been misled." What is the truth about private greed and cash in hand? I am sure that all "fair minded people" will agree that if the Statesman knows of any man or set of men to whom "the people's due representation was of no consequence, so long as the money was forthcoming," it should give that name or names, so that the responsibility may be placed where it belongs. I am sure that all "fair minded people" will agree that if the Statesman is not in possession of such fact or facts, then it has no right to slander struggling Negro men with vague allusions—the meanest things of earth. If that political saint of yours, Sheriff Nisbet, or any other candidate of two years ago gave or caused to be given "cash in hand" instead of the "people's due representation," let him come forward and state his case. Sure, "there will be honest intentioned persons whose minds might be poisoned by such talk and the facts are the best answer." Here stand the facts. Negro men and women who were holding menial political positions two years ago were assessed, re-assessed and assessed right over again to land into office Sherim Nisbet and Assessor Bartels, those pure, honest and upright children of --- DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY. OCT. 15, 1910 the Lord's supper. The reason the "people's due representation" was no forthcoming was because somebody lied. Did not our splendid district attorney stand up in East Turner hall and say to you and to hundreds of others that the candidates on the Republican ticket would be as anxious to reward Negro voters after the election as they were to solicit their votes and did he not say after the election... that he was sorry, but there were not enough places for the white folks? Not one word about having bought anybody or "cash in hand," or any other lot of that kind. Did not Chairman Vickery tell every Negro voter he met that in his judgment the Negro voters had never received fair consideration at the hands of the Republican party in this city, county and state, and that the then candidates were willing and would see to it that they be justly rewarded? Now we want to know who sold us out, who bought us and how much did we bring. You seem to know; speak out, tell the truth. JAMES J. MANUEL OUR ANSWER. We are somewhat amused that of all the people in Denver, Mr. Manuel is the one most struck by our "vague" allusions to money grafting in last week's Statesman. We had intended to express our discontent with the management of the campaign of two years ago in that the race secured nothing from the deals of the politicians who were in charge. We intended to show that it was poor management that prevented us getting representation, and not the unwillingness of Sheriff Nisbet, for instance. But somehow the money question got on Mr. Manuel's nerves, and he hastens to establish an alibi by inference. But can he stand acquitted of being responsible for no representation in county offices? Two years ago he was campaign manager for a colored man who was nominate on the county Republican legislative ticket. It matters not how he did it, it was done. As a result of that nomination the conduct of the campaign here in Denver county was taken from J. W. Jackson, who was in charge in 1906. In 1906 four representative places and lots of smaller places went to Negrees. In 1908 we drew a complete blank. Mr. Manuel would have the people believe our charge that "private greed cost us dear" is unfounded, simply because we have not said John Doe or Rich- ard Roe received the money and sold us out. We confess our inability to offer incontrovertible proof of graft on the part of the leaders two years ago, but we call on the whole community to witness, Mr. Manuel included, that the campaign was the most grossly mismanaged (judged by its results) that has ever been in this county. Every place was lost that was secured two years before. Does Mr. Manuel wish to confess that he and his associates were so stupid as to lose all and keep not even the money? Do they wish to claim that Sheriff Nisbet is so changeable that he was perfectly willing to employ a colored man in 1906 and is willing today, but was not wilting in 1908? On three occasions the editor of this paper has asked consideration for colored Republicans of County Chairman Vickery. On each occasion he has said we deserved consideration and he has given it. Twice did he appoint men in his office when county clerk, once while city auditor, and on many occasions has he led the fight when we sought his aid to appointments for Negroes in other offices. It will take more than an inferential denial of money grafting by the 1908 leaders to prove to us that Nisbet and Vickery will not give us a square deal. There was a well substantiated report in 1908 after the election of the district attorney and sheriff, that the Negro who was in charge of the 1908 campaign made application for appointment in the district attorney's office. Two of his cabinet sought appointment from Mr. Nisbet. There is still another report coming to us first hand that the money expended in that campaign among colored people exceeded the usual amount, though the results obtained were the poorest. We confess we cannot point out the man or men who "has the button," but with these well substantiated facts before them, the people will see a close connection between the financial affluence of some, the personal aspirations of others and the discrediting of the whoe race. In closing, let us say that we merit the criticism of Mr. Manuel for "vague allusions" to money grafting. Let us make the excuse that it is the set policy of this paper to give the good and suppress the bad. Some Negroes are so despicable that no condemnation can equal their crimes. Take the fellow who contrived the arrest of a respectable colored woman for election fraud simply because she would not assist in his election schemes! Consider those whose glory it is to do stool-pigeon work, making the Irish informers of world-wide disrepute, look like amateurs! Ta... the grafters who walk the streets by the year, living off the pickings of a two months' campaign and occasional appointments! Then there are the FIVE CENTS A COPY railbirds, who sit on the political fence until they can cure money from any old side by blackmail and threats of opposition! All these can be named and condemned. But what's the use! They are all dirty and everybody knows it. They have no consciences to awaken, no reputations to hurt. What Denver needs is a live, active participation in politics by all the people. Real leaders will come out of such a movement and they will easily supplant the self appointed leaders of today. Good political work will take the place of the shyster crookedness that passes current now for wise politics. The Statesman believes that it can hit a crook as well in general terms as in particular, and it is desirable not to blacken the reputation of politics by condemning politicians ad libitum, if we would encourage good people to participate. Mr. Manuel was the advance agent of the 1908 political regime. He now expresses himself dissatisfied with conditions it established. We don't blame him. We all are. If he is innocent of participation in making public trust a private snap, it is unfair that he hold the Republican party responsible for the misdeeds of his associates. ZION'S RALLY SUCCESSFUL. The rally at Zion church which began Sunday and will close in early November at the anniversary exercises of the church, has netted over $1,800 already, with present prospects from clubs unreported sufficient to make over $2,000. The club of Luther Walton led with a report of over $100, and the thirty-nine other clubs reporting made handsome showings. The pastor's clubs made up of non-members, had nearly $70. This rally is the largest in the history of the church. It has been carried out with a minimum of friction and represents the freewill offerings of Zion's members. The officiary of the church is proud of the showing and feels that the $3,000 planned will be raised by the time of the anniversary. COLORED HOSPITAL News comes from Kansas City that the old general hospital of that city has been turned over to the colored people for their use, with colored doctors and nurses. Dr. Wm. J. Tompkins, formerly of this city, is appointed to be the representative of the board of health in charge of the hospital, with the title of assistant city physician. Dr. Tompkins writes us at the hospital will need the services of one head nurse as directress, one who can qualify as nurse under the laws of Missouri; also eight young ladies, high school graduates, to be trained and receive wages in accordance. Persons wishing these positions should address him at 1512 E. 18th street. He also wants four doctors of medicine as internes. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. ——————i———OOO OO , Ee HOW THECHURCH AIDS SCHOOLS Educational Day Observed by A.M. E, Denomination, IMPORTANCE OF CHARACTER, Recent Efforts to Raise Funds For the Various Schools Were Successful. We Must Have Leaders of Thought and Teachers of Truth, Says Presi- dent Scarborough of Wilberforce. BY N. BARNELL DODSON. Nothing is more significant of the lively interest which the race is tak- ing in the cause of education than the hearty financial support which it ren- ders constantly through the channels of the various churches. Every denomination has its special educational interests to which it con- tributes either annually or at some stat- ed period during the year. One of the best systems of raising funds for edu- cational work is to be found in the A. M. E. church, which observes regular- ly what is popularly known as educa- tional day throughout the denomina- tion At such times special efforts are made to raise (by voluntary contribu- tions for the most part) means with Winer TO assist such eduentional mn Stitutions as are under the fostering care of the denomination. Among these schools are Wilberforce university, O., of which Professor William §. Scar- borough is president; Morris Brown college, Atlanta, Ga.; Kittrell school, in North Carolina, and Edwaters col- lege, in Texas. The day was generally observed this year on Sunday, Sept. 18. Reports so far of the umounts raised by the churches are very favorable. Com- ing just about the opening of the schools for the fall term, this financial aid gives the trustees of the school fund a clearer idea how to estimate or apportion funds to the various institu- tions. i In speaking to the students of Wil- berforce at the opening of the term re- cently President Scarborough said: “The educational world today is turn- ing its attention more and more to the individual, to the making of worthy human beings, to intelligent race cul- ture, to recognizing the worth of both heredity and enyironment as factors in the molding of each human life, “So our schools are being considered more and more as safe investments to bring about the best results, and edu- cators everywhere are asking what is best to be done to be able to meet the life that must be lived in the world and how best to prepare for it. “True educators are always seekers after truth, and today they are en- deavoring to make school and practical life join hands as we push on into wider fields of knowledge. “To my mind there is no greater thing than to have such training that the human soul blossoms out into a character in which all forces are grasped and combined, so as to lay nD " -*tistic char- 6 oe s af — is ee ee =— a oo | \ a \ ‘ wae ee meee A iE ke 4 ie 1. Hees a fa 4 ee PRESIDENT W. S. SCARBOROUGH. hold of all that goes to wu. ‘acter building for a race, We as a people need this particular training. We need just such artistie work. “We must have leaders of thought. teachers of truth, and there is no oth- er way to obtain such except by this all around training, that develops vi- sion that is not only farsighted, but penetrating as well. “We must change much in the race, and we must learn in schools how this is to be done. Our training must be such as to accomplish this. The wataught, emotional masses must be made over into educated, serious, rea- soning beings for our salvation as a People, It is the business of our schools to show how this may be done. “To such work our institution, Wil- berforce university, is committed. “Wilberforce university stands to- day for the education of the whole man—the head, the heart and the hand. We Iay here special stress upon the fact that the future of the Negro people depends almost entirely upon its trained men and women— men and women of brain, of culture and of strong, sturdy character, who are to take the lead in shaping its destiny. “More than ever the Negro must de- pend upon himself, must look to his own leadership for guidance, and God forbid that this should be other than a wise one—the very best along all lines that the race can afford!” Glowing Report on Foreign Missions. At the recent annual meeting of the national Baptist convention held in New Orleans, the foreign mission board reported as the result of its year’s labors three school buildings finished, two churches, $26,299.54 and as having baptized 1,011 persons. BIG EDUCATIONAL RALLY. Generous Financial Aid Given Eight Worthy Young Women. The testimonial reception and educa- tonal rally held at the Bethesda Bap- tist church, New Rochelle, N. Y., on Thursday evening, Sept. 29, was a grand success. The affair was given for the purpose of raising funds to assist eight ambl- tious young women through school. Miss I’, Willia Davis was one of the prime factors in the movement, and it is encouraging to note the splendid co- operation which she received from her associates and tbe general public. The young women in whose honor the testimonial was given are the fol- lowing: Misses Julia Trent, Kate Wat- | son, Rosa Flowers, Maggie Foster, Nel- lie Burnette, Lillian Corbette, Nettie Benjamin aud Lillian Moses, | HEADQUARTERS FOR ; BUILDING LABORERS ' PINN & WALTON 1221 19th STREET.

Mr. Dudley, the leading man in the Smart Set Co., will endeavor to have a school in Chicago next summer for the young aspirants to the stage. I believe there are many great men among this race of people, Dudley. THE HOWARD THEATER, WASHINGTON, D. C. The new addition to the great city of Washington is the new colored theater by the name of The Howard, with a seating capacity of 1,100. This is the largest colored theater in the world and they play the best that can be had among the negro professionals. The first week of November they will put on seven big acts at a cost of $1,200. This makes each act average $185 per week. DIXIE KID WILL MEET DICK NELSON AGAIN. A few weeks ago The Kid and Nelson had a little fistic argument which went against the Kid. They have again signed articles and the Kid hopes to regain his lost title, welterweight. THE R. M. A. CLUB HAD A BIG NIGHT. Last Saturday night the big prize ragtime piano contest proved to be a grand success. Clyde Thomas, late of Cripple Creek, won the first prize by defeating Nine-Fingered Brown and Fred Clark. Mr. Thomas will soon publish a ragtime piece dedicated to the great Rocky Mountain Athletic Club and it is hoped that every one in Denver will try and purchase a copy as it will be one of the swellest rags out. Well, of all the backward boys I think Denver certainly has its share. Three or four weeks ago I was positive that we were going to have a fine football team, but no such good luck. All that contemplated playing have backed out out, so I guess football will be the same as the baseball that was played this past summer. All told about two games of baseball were played. Wake up, boys, or you are in the soup. THE PEKIN THEATER, CHICAGO. For the last two weeks crowds have flocked to the Pekin to hear the best performers now in Chicago. Flora Belle Jones has made the hit of the season singing her latest songs, "Lovey Joe" and "That Dying Rag." BERT WILLIAMS IS THE STAR. Of late people all down East who have seen Follies, 1910, are all up in the air concerning the great negro comedian, Bert Williams. Some say that he is not the star and others say that he is. Well, according to Mr. Steavens, the great critic of the Chicago Examiner, Bert Williams is the star performer of the big White company, Follies, 1910-11, and is consid- PAGE. 12 FOOTBALL.

Those two clever entertainers who are known to everybody in Denver, are still appearing at West Bros.' and singing and playing the very latest songs of the day. It is hoped in the near future that we will see these two boys playing the best and biggest circuits there are in the United States. Why not, they are both competent, clever and artistic. THE R. M. A. CLUB IS MAKING LARGE IMPROVEMENTS. President Victor Walker is a man who believes in having things right or not at all. The new additions to the club is the installment of the new steam heat at a cost of $1,500; next is the gym., a new punching bag platform, 40 new gymnasium suits and a lot of new gloves, pulleys, dumb bells, Indian clubs and many other things that help to fit out a gym. All gentlemen are invited to look the club over. DENVER NEGROES TO PRODUCE A NEW PLAY FOR THE NEW YEAR. With some of the best talent this city affords, George Harris, late of Chicago, will try and produce a two-act musical comedy, entitled "The Charming Widow of Chicago," which is sure to be a winner if it is produced to the people of this city. There will be 18 people in all to take part in this comedy. THE COLE AND JOHNSON. The famous Red Moon company, which made such a big hit last season, will not go on the road this year, but Cole and Johnson will enter in vaudeville the latter part of this month, playing the Orpheum circuit. JACK JOHNSON VS. BARNEY OLD FIELD, OCT. 20TH. Jack Johnson, whom everybody knows as the world-beater in the heavyweight division, has gone so far as to make a side bet of $5,000 that he can beat Oldfield racing automobiles. They have made all agreements to race at Sheepshead Bay race track Oct. 20. There will be several thousand negroes from the big cities close by to witness Jack in his daring feat of trying to beat the king of the auto racers, Barney Oldfield. Of course Jack is confident of winning, but I would not advise anyone to gamble on Jack beating such a man as Barney Oldfield. I don't think Jack can win. --- See a Beautiful Line of Millinery at the HOME INDUSTRIAL MILLINERY PARLOR MOVE TO 2918 MARION STREET PHONE YORK 5142 Opening Day, Tuesday, Oct. 17 Would be pleased to see all of my old customers.

She was encored and encored. The power, the sweetness, the tech- nique all were there and were ap- preciated by a critical audience. Another participant on the program was the “New-Found” chorus club, composed principally of members of the church. Under the leadership of Mr. Watson they have made such progress in chorus singing as to be a revelation to their hearers. The chorus is not a large one, but their handling of the weu known chorus ' pieces won enthusiastic applause. One feature of the evening's enter- tainment that is seldom found in ven- ver Was the promptness with which - began and closed.

The Home For Incorrigible Colored Children will be located at Rhinebeck. N. Y., after Oct. 10. The trustees of the institution have purchased the old John D. Lown farm near the village of Rhinebeck, upon which will be operated a model farm to be worked by the youths of the institution. There are over a hundred children in the institution. It is the purpose of the trustees to raise produce enough from the farm after the first year to maintain the home. The section in which the home is located is surrounded by the estates of wealthy white people, and if it is properly managed, instead of meeting opposition from these white neighbors, the managers will readily find them ready and willing to assist the institution. Among the wealthy landowners adjoining the farm are such well known American financiers as ex-Vice President Levi P. Morton, John Jacob Astor, Colonel F. H. Olin, William Starr Miller and R. R. Buckley. The old farm quarters are undergoing repairs previous to the coming of the corps of teachers, the children and the belongings of the home. Notice the thick rubber tread "A" and puncture strips "B" and "D₂" also rim strip "H" to prevent rim cutting. This tire will outlast any other make—SOFT, ELASTIC and EASY RIDING.

Advisory Board of National Religious Training School Begins Work. By N. BARNETT DODSON. The advisory board of the National Religious Training School, of which Dr. James E. Shepard is president, held its first meeting for the fall at Durham, N. C., on Wednesday, Oct. 12, to arrange for the work of the school this winter. The president of the board is the well known Judge Peter C. Pritchard. The plan is to begin a campaign to raise the necessary funds for the erection of new buildings. The school's influence has been doubled by the very successful six weeks' summer normal and Chautauqua held the past summer. Among the prominent southern white men who are aiding the institution are Bishop Robert Strange of the eastern North Carolina diocese, Archdeacon G. W. Avent of the same theological district, N. B. Broughton of Raleigh, Judge Pritchard of Asheville, the Rev. Dr. Jasper C. Massee of Chattanooga, Tenn., to say nothing of the northern ministers and teachers of both races who are giving liberally of their means. The school is now beyond the experi- 14.

Of the work of the school Bishop Strange, for years a missionary and educator of the highest standing in the south, says: "I am much interested in this Chautauqua for the Negro. I think highly of Dr. Shepard, and I believe this institution will be a real help to the Negro." Entering upon its first winter work, the school finds itself in need of money. Upon its advisory board there are twenty-seven men, nearly all white men, and many southerners. Buildings and equipment, aside from the medical building, will cost $25,000. Extension work needs are placed at $5,000, light and heat $5,000 and water $1,000. The $61,000 required would put the institution where its own income would begin to be a real help in the work. Business will be part of the course of instruction, but the great plan is to reach those spots in the rural south where at present the ministers, through lack of broader opportunity, are ineffective. --- 2300-2306 LARIMER ST Also Canned Meats PROVISIONS Also Bakery Goods BRANCH OF POLITICAL EQUALITY ASSOCIATION. Permanent headquarters for the Afro-American branch of the Political Equality association, of which Mrs. Oliver H. P. Belmont is president, have been opened at 83 West One Hundred and Thirty-fourth street, New York, with Miss Irena L. Moorman, one of the pioneer members, in charge. The rooms will be open evenings during the fall and winter. They are comfortably furnished and well supplied with suffrage literature, and there will be various lecture courses and study classes in the season. The opening of the headquarters marks the growth of the branch to 100 members, the point at which Mrs. Belmont promised the members that she would provide them with rooms of their own. Later, with further increased size, the branch will move into a regular suffrage settlement house. The National Woman Suffrage association, at 505 Fifth avenue, has furnished a pretty reception room adjoining the office of the president, Dr. Anna Howard Shaw. In this is a picture of Susan B. Anthony and the chair she used in the last forty-three years of her life. One end of the room is filled with portraits of other suffrage leaders and workers. There are posters used by the English suffragettes, and on a center table are the suffrage "rainbow fliers." Political Situation in Oklahoma. The fight that the Negroes are making in Oklahoma against the iniquitous grandfather clause, which aims to disfranchise them, is admirable, says the Omaha (Neb.) Enterprise. This fight is being watched with no little interest by the race throughout the country. The commendable thing is that it is receiving the strong support of the Republican organization. Madam J. M.

On account of the constant demand made on the great railroad corpora- tions by female passengers who travel extensively on the cars of the company for female attendants is beginning to receive attention. The position and importance of the dining car porter are too well known to necessarily admit of comment. But the female attendant in any consider- able numbers is almost entirely new. With the close competition of the va- rious roads for the patronage of the traveling public has come this very necessary line of special service. It is not so strange now to see bright and competent young women, both white and colored, caring for the spe- cial compartments for women on trains running from one end of the country to the other. e So that in this new line of liveli- hood the competent young colored wo- men, along with women of the other races, are proving to be important fac- tors in the hum and bustle of travel. We have come into the possession of the above facts by our acquaintance with Mrs. Ardelle Taylor of New York, who is one of the most capable and trustworthy attendants on the regular Pennsylvania limited trains out from New York to Chicago. Mrs. Taylor secured the position solely on account of her exceptional ability and knowledge of how to skill- fully handle large numbers of vwo- men. Knowing the old proverb that a pleased customer gains for the trade another patron, Mrs. Taylor's services were readily accepted. The fact that Mrs. Taylor is a gifted linguist also added to her fitness for we pysuvu wuien SDe SO ROLNTADIY fills. THE PSYCHOLOGY OF LABOR. Comparison Between Italian and Negro Laborers In the South. | A three years’ experiment in substi- tuting Italian labor for Negro labor in the cotton fields has come to naught in Jefferson county, Ark., says the Pine Bluff Daily Graphic. The reasons for the failure seem to be psychologic rather than strictly economic. - John M. Gracie, on whose plantation the experiment was conducted, has found that in actual labor efficiency the Italian field hands show a marked superiority to the Negro, but that such superiority is more than wiped out by a Jack of tractability on the part of ‘the Italian laborer and the difficulty of holding him to contract obligation. | To this subject there are undoubted- ly two sides. The experience of Ital- ian laborers and colonists in the south has not always been such as to en- courage the highest degree of trustful- ness in the Italian immigrant. In some sections of the south conditions have reached a point where the Ital- fan government has seen fit to dis- courage immigration altogether. But, whatever may be the rights and wrongs of the situation, the fact stands out clearly enough that no wholesale eviction of the Negro by the Italian fs within the possibilities of the practi- cal future. The Negro will remain the source and reservoir of the south’s la- ber supply. What Texas Politicians Need. The local white Republicans are in quite a pickle, says the Dallas (Tex.) Express. They want the Negro vote, but are ashamed to ask for {it under the Lyon regime. They are correct. What we want and must have be- fore the party will grow is an admin- wuaveH WHET nas patriotism 710 sense enough to respect character and worth, whether those qualities are to be found in a Negro or some other race variety.

WHERE THE BLAME LIES. New England Women Astonished and Grieved Over Insulting Remarks of Arkansas Farmer Who Acted the Clown at New York Meeting of National Negro Business League. By N. BARNETT DODSON. Perhaps no criticism, insult or misrepresentation of the race within the past few years has caused such widespread indignation as that which emanated from Scott Bond at the recent session of the National Negro Business league held in New York. The cause of the whole trouble is on account of Mr. Bond's alleged public characterization of the women of the race as "nigger" women; also that they aped white women in dress. He also made other insulting remarks which reflected upon the character of motherhood. To publicly resent this insult the colored women of Boston recently held a mass meeting in which they made known to the world their disapproval of the whole proceedings which gave rise to Scott Bond's allegations. The meeting was held in Society hall and was attended by hundreds of persons who were equally incensed over the unfortunate occurrence. The meeting was called to order by Mme. L. C. Parrish, who is one of the most successful business women of the race, who in introducing Mrs. M. Cravath Simpson, chairman of the meeting, frankly stated that her indignation was not directed so much at Scott Bond, the clown and ignoramus whose A. MRS. M. CRAVATH SIMPSON. great boasted wealth dwindled so rapidly next day, but at the presiding officer, Dr. Booker T. Washington, president of the league. Mrs. Simpson said: We have met here tonight on one of the saddest occasions that we have ever THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. Not in the history of the world have we ever seen it chronicled or ever heard of an Irishman calling himself a "Mick" or a "Paddy" nor his women "Mick" women or "Paddy" women. Neither have we read or heard of the Italian addressing himself as a "dago" nor his women as "dago" women, nor the Jew calling himself "sheeney" nor his women "sheeney" women. And so I might continue to enumerate every race under the sun that has been nicknamed by the American people, and no race but one could I find that would attribute to itself or its people a degrading nickname given by the American people at a time which when thought of should make that race hide its face in shame and the race it's attributed to weep for pity at the weakness and shame of the American people. Calls Our Race "Nigger." But instead in this enlightened twentieth century we are startled by glaring headlines of the press scattered broadcast over the country stating that a man, one Scott Bond, halling from Arkansas, is proud to call himself "nigger" and the women of his race as "nigger women." Given the Opportunity. And the worst and saddest of it all is an opportunity for such denunciation was given by a gentleman and a scholar of the race, one whom the American people wish to thrust upon 12,000,000 of his race as their "leader," their "Moses." Is it to be wondered at that many of them rebel, knowing that the race contains men who are far more worthy in principle and who are as scholarly as Booker T. Washington, pet of white Americans? What It Teaches. It has, furthermore, been thoroughly proved by Scott Bond that industrial education without higher education is like a jewsharp without a tongue [laughter and applause] and should hereafter ever set at rest all controversy for industrial education without higher education as a necessary adjunct. An open letter was sent to Dr. Booker T. Washington at the close of the meeting informing him of its object and asking him to disapprove of Mr. Bond's actions in thus insulting the women of the race. CONCORD LITERARY CIRCLE. Begins Season With Brilliant Program Miss Collins Delights Audience. The formal opening meeting of the Concord Literary circle, Brooklyn, was held on Thursday evening, Sept. 22. An appreciative audience was present to enjoy the splendid program which was rendered. N. Barnett Dodson presided and also delivered the salutatory address. Mr. Harry Blaine Foster rendered a very pleasing vocal solo, which was followed by an original composition by Mr. Ivan Husband, delivered as a declamation. The work showed careful preparation, depth of thought and logical reasoning from specific viewpoints. The next speaker was Mr. Edward L. Faulcon, whose theme was self help by personal contact with persons and things of an elevating character. He urged the young people to be careful of the kind of company they keep, to read good books and to make good use of every opportunity. The climax of interest and enthusiasm came, however, when Miss Rosetta E. Collins, formerly of Lima, O., was introduced and heard in the rendition of one of her classical vocal selections. She has a most charming soprano voice, which she well commands and sways her audience at will. Miss Collin also has much of the dramatic style in her platform movements, which adds considerably to her power of holding an audience. She delighted her hearers and was obliged to respond to several encores. She is a graduate of the high school of her native town.

Listen to what the Rocky Mountain News says: "The Democratic caucus at the state senate is a fraud. It is being used to betray the party and the people, and at the same time to shield the individual betrayers from a just public condemnation." After characterizing the Democratic senators who control the Democratic caucus as "false to the people and the party," it says: "Themselves dishonorable, the machine plotters may deal dishonorably by the caucus; but the platform Democrats, being men of honor, must be slaves to that honor! And the dishonorable senators—knowing nothing of honor for themselves—must be allowed to interpret the obligations which honor imposes upon others." And it continues: "It would be imbecile, or worse, for the platform senators to longer continue such an unholy and hopeless alliance. Better to trust their cause in open senate to the support of honorable Republicans than to see that cause assassinated in caucus by dishonorable Democrats." It is clear from the above language of the News that the majority of senators representing the majority of people who voted for Democracy two years ago, are unworthy to protect the good name of the Democratic party. Its language could not be stronger in its denunciation were they Republicans. The Statesman submits it to the intelligence of its readers whether the people of Colorado should trust their business to such apostates as their own party papers say they are. Indeed these are joyous political days when the enemy turns state's evidence. No trouble to prove our case. Just read the Democratic press and be convinced that the Republican party is the one that deserves your vote. CHEYENNE NEWS. Rev.
