Republican Congressmen are an insurance for our citizen rights. Republican State Officials will protect us at home. FRANKLIN'S PAPER THE STATESMAN A DANGEROUS AMENDMENT Twenty-Second Year A DANGERO Vote "Against" Initiative and Will Make Easy Consti Sooner or Later will Next Tuesday by the act of the special session of the legislature the people of Colorado will vote on a constitutional amendment known as "initiative and referendum." The amendment if it carries, will provide for the placing on the ballot at state elections any and all measures which may be "initiated" or originated by 8 per cent. of the voters of the state. In other words, should only 20,000 Coloradoans want prohibition, or separate schools or any other legislation, they can have the proposed amendment placed on the ballot. "Initiated" legislation affecting the heavy financial interests or influential masses of people, would find this class amply able to conduct a campaign against it. But what if the Negro is the one who would be the loser? The whole scheme is a dire menace to us. It is claimed for it that it will make easier the changes of the constitution. It happens to be a fact that constitutional changes beginning in the states that seceded from the Union and continuing now into Oklahoma, Kentucky and Maryland, have been peculiarly harmful to the Negro. Northward the curse of race prejudice is making its way, and our only defense against it is the difficulty of amending the state constitutions. Unlike labor or capital or any other division of white people, organized action among us begets organized opposition because of race prejudice. It would be the height of folly for us to depend upon the majority. The Constitution of the State of Colorado provides for schools for our children beginning at the lowest grade and ending with the State University. It provides for our voting. It guarantees our civil rights both under the common law and by a special civil rights act. Our property rights are secure. There is no possible change in Constitution that can work for our good. No reason can be found by the friends of initiative and referendum --- DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, NOV. 5, 1910 why we should vote for it. But on the other hand there is every reason why we should oppose it. First of all it is claimed to be a means of making easy the changing of the constitution. That is reason number one why every Negro should vote against it. It is claimed for it that it will make the "people" the real rulers. That is the final argument which should clinch every Negro vote "against" this latest attempt of mere numbers to control brains. It is the "people" who have made the trades union, it is the "people" whose blood lust has made the mob, it is the "people" who have responded-in every southern state to the rallying cry of white supremacy. In short by "people," the friends of initiative and referendum refer to that element of Americans who have nothing but their vote; who labor for a daily wage and who seek by that vote to make their wages the equal of the income of the man with brains and capital. There is no demand for initiative and referendum from the business interests which furnish us employment. It is only our competitors who ask it. All these are the special reasons why colored people should vote against the constitutional amendment. They are in addition to the weaknesses inherent in the system. First of all, such an amendment confesses representative government to be a failure. The founders of the government were wrong! It says legislators are figure heads and not the picked men of the commonwealth who shall work for the common good. Then there is the expense. As it is now we shall vote on several constitutional amendments. With this bid for profusion of them, who can say how many we will have? Estimates as high as $400,000 have been made on the advertising cost alone. A graver objection than these is the opportunity direct legislation offers for the masses to array themselves Continued on last page. OUR HONOR IS AT STAKE Pearce Has the Endorsement of His Party. Now Shall he and His Party Receive Our Endorsement, after Insulting Us. Secretary of State Pearce, the Democratic nominee for re-election, is a real issue in this campaign. Outside of the Southern states, there are few men in public life who have the brazen indifference to their oath of office which permits them to say publicly that Negroes ought not to be brought into contact with white people except as menials, as Pearce said. The sense of justice is too large in many persons for them to affirm such an unAmerican doctrine however they may feel on the color question. The sense of the proprieties is too large in others for them to confess to the whole world that their oath of office to administer the laws without prejudice or bias toward any class of citizens, is a meaningless thing where Negroes are concerned. Therefore it is that we say Pearce is a real issue in this campaign. If the people of the state of Colorado return him to office he will consider that he is free of blame for his actions. Other office holders will feel that they, too, may outrage justice and decency where Negroes are concerned and go scot free. Pearce's election will be the opening wedge of a pronounced anti-Negro agitation. A man of his class would preen himself on his dirt, he would be as proud of his deed as a criminal is of some signal crime he commits. All this would be true if we opposed him to a man. But what words can describe the scorn which would be heaped upon us if we sit idly by and permit him to be elected without opposing him with every weapon in our power? We do not believe it thinkable, much less possible, for any Negro to vote for him. We would be branded as senseless clods whom any man or any party could maltreat without fear of consequence. We would confess ourselves unfit for the responsibilities of citizenship. If we will not protect ourselves, we deserve treat ment such as Pearce has given us. Our manhood is at stake in Colo Our manhood is at stake in Colorado! We will now be weighed! This is no case where it is possible for us to be of different opinions. Pearce must be beaten! No matter how, he must go down in defeat! His defeat will be accepted as a rebuke to his treatment of the Negro and his treatment of womanhood, just as his election would serve to approve his acts. But there is more involved in Pearce's candidacy than himself. He represents a party. He is the choice of his state convention. He was known to have insulted us, his action was commented upon by Governor Shafroth and others of the administration; yet he was nominated. So far as a nomination is an endorsement of the acts of an official, the Democrats of Colorado have endorsed Pearce, dirt and all. Now the Negroes of Colorado must decide whether they shall endorse the Democrats, dirt and all. Congressional candidates Stevens and Burger are national officers. No Negro can afford to support their opponents, especially in the light of the manly utterances of Senator Burger, found elsewhere in this paper, and the well-known record of Editor Stevens. But the state candidates of the Democrats come from the same source as Pearce. They are tarred with the same stick and they deserve to die the same death, since not one of them, from the governor down, has had the manhood to repudiate him. The only adequate rebuke to Pearce is to vote the straight Republican state ticket. Throw out the copperhead partisans, root and branch. Then no one can be so foolish as to think that a public official can unblushingly break his cath of office, forget the principles of justice and common decency, and go unscathed! Colorado must be redeemed. We Negroes must help redeem it. Beware of the "Citizens" and "Platform" Democrat tickets. They have endorsed the Democrats, Pearce included. Write "Republican" on your ballot. LIFE AND WORK OF C.W. ALLEN Who Has Made His Way Up From the Bottom. BUSY WITH MANY INTERESTS. Former Letter Carrier Who Saved His Earnings, Caught Time by the Forelock, Engaged In Business and Is Meeting With Marked Success—Editor, Politician and Fraternity Man. Among the most progressive business men of western Alabama, and of the whole state for that matter, is Clarence W. Allen, whose picture we present in this issue. He was born in Mobile and received his early training in the public schools and at Emerson Institute in his native city. He is one of those young men who have made their way up from the humble walks of life and become potent factors in the development of the financial and business life of the race. For more than ten years he was mail carrier in the postoffice at Mobile. Having invested much of his earnings M. during this period in real estate, he soon found it necessary to resign his position to look after his business interests. Mr. Allen is the editor and publisher of the Mobile Weekly Press, which has a circulation of about 5,000, with a newspaper plant valued at $4,000. He is prominent among the secret societies of the state. He has been endowment secretary of the Masonic order of the state of Alabama for ten years and was elected at the last annual session by acclamation. This was indeed a high compliment to him when it is known that he handled for that society last year over $75,000 and paid to widows and orphans of members of the order about $70,000. He is a member of State Street A. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. M. E. Zion church, a member of the state, district and county Republican executive committees and is connected with many movements for the elevation of the race in his city and state. The success of Mr. Allen has made it possible for him to help others and to serve the race in a substantial way. He employs regularly eighteen men and women in his business and pays them respectable wages. Indeed, the Negro who earns his money and invests it in a way that will give employment to Negro boys and girls as stenographers, bookkeepers and wage earners helps the race in a most substantial manner. Pivitol Point In New York Politics. A prominent Texas editor in expatiating recently on the political outlook in New York this fall, says if the closeness of the New York vote gets the figures down to a margin where the colored vote can decide the contest the Negro voters will convince the country that they have had quite enough of Mr. Teddy.

At a joint meeting of the executive and campaign committees of the National Independent Political league recently held in Washington a program for active participation in the coming state and congressional campaign was adopted. According to the leaders, speakers will be sent into districts in which there are candidates who are unfriendly to the black race. The fight, they say, will be commenced at once. The preliminary program contemplates the support of the Democratic state ticket in New York and opposition to all candidates known to be proRoosevelt; support of the Democratic ticket in Ohio and of Republican candidates for the legislature who are friends of former Senator Foraker; support of the Democratic ticket in Massachusetts and opposition to those candidates for the legislature who are pledged to Senator Lodge. In New Jersey the league leaders say they will support the Democratic ticket, but will bend their efforts toward the election of a Republican legislature. In Delaware and West Virginia the league is to lend its aid to the Republican candidates. According to the committeemen, much of the organization's work will be undertaken with a view to administering a rebuke for the Brownsville affair. Notice the thikl rubber tread "A" and puncture strips "B" and "D," also rim strip "H" to prevent rim cutting. This tire will outlast any other make—SOFT, ELASTIC and EASY RIDING. THE STATESMAN.

FAULKNER AND OTHERS WILL APPEAR IN MUSICAL NUMBERS Following the programme the Sir Knights will be reviewed in Full Uniform. PAGE.16 Dangerous Amendment Continued from first page against the classes; the cities against the country; the seekers after today's profit would find it easy to destroy the future prospects of the state through selfish appeals. We might go on to enumerate the ills that would come from numbers taking precedence over brains. Worst of all, the numbers would be themselves the creatures of a designing set of initiators. Only a small minority of voters give thoughtful consideration to legislation. The state would be harried and worried by contending schemers, business would give way to politics, capital would be afraid to invest and prosperity would vanish. All Colorado should place an X mark on the ballot opposite the words "Against the Amendment to Section ONE of Article V of the Constitution, providing for the Initiative and Referendum."

EAST 2300-6 Larimer Street KET REFERENCE OF DENVER ELL INDEX DELICATESSEN 2300-2306 LARIMER 8T The Afro-American Ministers union met at Central Baptist Church last Tuesday morning with the following ministers present: A. E. Reynolds, J. N. Wallace, A. M. Ward, D. E. Over, A. E. Edwards. The ministers voted to have two Thanksgiving services this year. One to be held at The People's Presbyterian Church and the other to be held at Campbell's A. M. E. Church. A movement of large magnitude started to increase the membership and interest in the Y. M. C. B. The Union recommended to the Executive Board of the Brotherhood that the 18th of December be the time set apart for this grand rally and the same to be held at Zion Baptist Church. The coming of Clarence Cameron White will be hailed with delight when it is nown that the effort will be entirely devoted toward raising money for the Brotherhood. This offer has been made through the Rev. A. M. Ward who had the engagement booked for his church, but was so magnanimous as to turn the entire management of the Musical over to the Brotherhood. The Musicale will be on the 21st of December. The Rev. D. E. Over has been instrumental in securing a noted German musician who will train the talent of the many city churches for a grand musical carnival to be given for the benefit of the Brotherhood sometime in January. Revs. Reynolds and Wallace will be the speakers on Thanksgiving Day at the two above named churches. It is expected by this departure from the customary way of holding these yearly services that both of these churches will be filled to overflowing. The Ministers Union will commence meeting at Zion Baptist Church for the month of November next Tuesday. Call on Mrs. G. W. Anderson at 2562 Glenarm Place, for Hair Goods of all kinds.

Happily for us, Time, the great healer, has removed sectional lines and together with your own efforts it will bridge the gap that separates you from full recognition as citizens.

Senator Burger is one of Colorado's Republican stalwarts. He is the kind of man that is pleasant to meet. The Statesman heartily accords him the honor of being a Lincoln Republican.

Sunday morning a series of discourses on Presbyterianism will be SCOTTS CHAPEL NOTES. Mr. Eli Burrell made a splendid donation to the church last week in the form of two very beautiful chandeliers of the latest make. Mr. F. D. McPherson and wife contributed the Tunston lights. The church can be lighted beautifully and with less cost than before. The choir will decorate the church through the leadership of Mrs. Mary E. Evans. A healthy subscription has already been made by this body. The walls will be calcimined and put in attractive order. The Ladies' Aid Society last Tuesday night gave very interesting and enjoyable social in the church. It was a departure from the usual custom of raising money by the means of these socials. A silver offering was taken after the refreshments were served. We wish to remind our loyal captains of the various rally clubs that the time is fast approaching for the rally. We are expecting to raise enough money to pay for the renovation of our church edifice. Miss Lola Jacobs who is teaching in Boley, Oklahoma, has been confined to her bed on the account of a serious sore throat.

'There were many distinguished guests present to partake of the many appetizing things prepared for the occasion. Mr. and Mrs. Rivers who have been sojourning in the prosperous town of Boley for the past eight months are back in our city to live. Mr. Rivers had plenty of experience in trying to farm in that part of the rich soil of the new state. Parents will please send their children at thre o'clock on Sunday afternoons. The League holds one hour. Miss Anthony will assist in instructing the children. The pastor will preach on "Civic Righteousness" Sunday morning and in the evening "The Loneliness of Christ."

The military committee of the board of education at Washington, which consists of Captain James F. Oyster, chairman; President W. V. Cox and Mr. R. R. Horner, has announced the staff and field officers of the separate battalion of high school cadets. The battalion of colored cadets will this year consist of six companies, two of which will be at the M Street high school and four at the Armstrong Manual Training school. Because of the rigid enforcement of the rule relating to the enlistment of cadets the enrollment of cadets this year is in excess of that of previous years. The officers are as follows: Major, Norman Ewing, Armstrong Manual Training school; adjutant, Preston Early, M Street high school. Captains of companies are: Hugh B. Shipley and Charles M. Wilder, M Street high school; John R. Fearing, William E. Davis, Thomas E. Jenkins and Clinton Wood, Armstrong Manual Training school. First lieutenants are: Francis Magruder and Charles Houston, M Street high school; Edward Dixon, Charles W. Scott, Riddick H. Pree and Graham A. Burwell, Armstrong Manual Training school. Second lieutenants are: George Adams, George Hayes and Francis Dent, M Street high school; Franklin Carter, Harry Whitfield, Harold B. Murray, William H. Watts and Ernest Mabray, Armstrong Manual Training school. Major Norman Ewing is the son of J. R. Ewing, clerk in the treasury department, and a grandson of Captain James P. Norman of Falls Church, Va. Major Ewing entered the Armstrong school in 1907 and served with great credit to himself and to the school in the positions of private, corporal, first sergeant and lieutenant. Besides his military examination, his high scholarship and manly bearing have won for him the position at the head of the battalion. Major Arthur Brooks is the military instructor of the high school cadets. ROOSEVELT CHALLENGED. Boston Editor Calls on Former President to Show His Colors. William Monroe Trotter, the well known agitator and editor of the Boston Guardian, has challenged ex-President Theodore Roosevelt to a joint debate on the question of equal civic rights for the Negro. It is as follows: To Hon. Theodore Roosevelt, Oyster Bay. N.Y. Dear Sir-At a meeting of the campaign committee of the National Political league held in Washington recently I publicly challenged you to show the courage on your southern tour to condemn jimcrowning, disfranchising and lynching colored Americans in the south or to publicly approve of the same. You failed to do either. At the same meeting I challenged you to a joint debate and now send you the challenge in writing on your solution of the so-called Negro problem as stated by you last August in New York. I will take the affirmative of the proposition that your solution is fallacious and false, a violation of human nature, contrary to the history of the struggle against oppression and the drawing of the color line. I will meet you at any place in New York city suitable for a public debate on any day except election day on one week's notice. Awaiting your reply, I am yours sincerely. W. M. TROTTER. MRS. A. M.

WON $50 PRIZE FOR ORATORY Difficulties Which Hinder the Progress of Afro-Americans In the Legal Profession Are Gradually Being Removed-Influence of S. D. McGill as an Attorney In Jacksonville. The anathema of a class of American citizens which has endeavored to restrict the natural limitation of the developing powers of Afro-Americans has been more keenly felt by a certain element of professional persons of the race than any other individuals of the same race especially qualified to be known as members of a professional clan. The procedure of the prejudice minded in the realm that requires scholastic attainments and the mastering of jurisprudence against a person of Negro blood who is qualified to act and demand the rights guaranteed every citizen has in a marked degree had a disheartening effect upon those entering the field of American jurisprudence. Thus every Afro-American possessing race pride should give his legal work to a colored lawyer. This branch of the professions engaged in by the Negro is essential, absolutely so, for the maintenance of all substantial movements conducted by the American Negro. These conditions require the very best training that American institutions of learning can give to the young men and women of the race who are entering the professions and especially that of law. Being impressed with the native ability of S. Decatur McGill of Sanford, Fla., Professor T. V. Gibbs advised him to enter the Tallahassee State college, where he remained a year, when he accepted a scholarship in Edwards Waters college in Jacksonville, Fla. Mr. McGill graduated with honors from the above institution in 1902. Seeing a rational possibility for suc- cess for a colored lawyer in Florida, he decided to enter Dummer academy. South Byfield, Mass., an institution that would give him the necessary preparation for an excellent career in his native state. At this academy he won a prize of $50 in an oratorical contest, being the only Afro-American in the contest. He graduated from this noted school with honors and the next year specialized at Harvard university for the study of his chosen profession. During the year 1904 he entered the Boston University Law school and did special work in the college department. The next year he was awarded a scholarship in this school, representing New England ideals for the entire time required for his graduation. During the famous peace conference at Portsmouth, N. H., in the summer of 1905 between the Japanese and Russian nations M. Witte, the great Russian statesman, made young Mc- THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. J. 8. DECATUR M'GILL. Gill his special messenger. McGill made such a success in teaching some of the Russian party English that the leading papers of New England ran interesting stories, with illustrations, on the incident and the native ability of this young law student. The argument of the pessimists who claim that a Negro lawyer is and will always be a failure in a number of the southern states where he is proscribed in becoming by transpiring events a metamorphosis of ideas and a delusion. Lawyer McGill does not have to indulge in unmanly yielding of principle to win a case, but the merits of the case, being established in the light of legal procedure, gain for him recognition that his honesty and ability demand RACE HAS BRIGHT FUTURE. Professor William C. Pickens Sees Hope In the Distance. A large and representative audience greeted Professor William C. Pickens at the recent fall opening of the Lincoln Settlement association in Brooklyn. Mr. Pickens is a member of the faculty of Talladega college, in Alabama. His subject was "Grounds of Hope For the American Negro." Like most men of note who are doing educational work among our people, Professor Pickens lays much stress upon the education of the masses of the race as a stepping stone to future progress and usefulness. Having received his higher or academic education in the north and teaching, as he does, in a southern college, Professor Pickens' ideas of the kind of education needed to enable the race to overcome the many difficulties and the rank prejudices of other races are broad and enlightening. The speaker based his grounds for hope on the remarkable progress which the race has made since emerging from slavery. He cited facts which showed what the race has accomplished in education, business, religious life and in the production of many able public men. The number of students in the high schools, academies, colleges and universities, to say nothing of the number in the rural districts and city schools, furnishes grounds of hope for the future well being of the race. The Settlement association begins its work this fall under very favorable circumstances and will soon begin a series of meetings in the interest of those for whom the association is intended.
