REPUBLICAN RALLY,EUREKA HALL,FRIDAY NIGHT A DEMOCRAT HEADS THE CITIZENS TICKET. Henry J. Arnold Is a Typical, Mossback Missouri Democrat, Who Tells White Voters He Objects To Negro Laborers And Refuses To Hold Out Even Hope, When He Speaks To Us. With no offer of employment for us up to this time, and with numerous witnesses to substantiate that fact, we need not prove that he has expressed his hatred of us, for he himself has proven beyond dispute that over the door of the party he leads, there is emblazoned for every Negro, "All hope abandoned, ye who enter here." GIVEN ASSURANCE TO COLORED CITIZENS THAT HIS ELECTION WILL MEAN OPPORTUNITY FOR THEM TO LABOR ON THE PUBLIC WORKS OF DENVER! In the face of the charge which we made that he objected to our employment, and not withstanding the steady stream of entreaties of his colored supporters for a word of assurance, in his address to colored citizens at Eureka Hall, Monday Night, he was silent on matters affecting us. Only indirectly did we get into his speech and that was when he said he was opposed to the importation of laborers, black or white, to do work in Denver when there were plenty of both kinds here. This statement is a straddle, a meaningless subterfuge. He was quick to deny the truth of our assertion to certain of his ABOUT TAXATION Twenty-Third Year A DE Henry J. Arnol He O NEITHER BY DIRECT PRI GIVEN ASSURANCE MEAN OPPORTUNITY DENVER! In the face of the ment, and not withstanding ers for a word of assurance day Night, he was silent on Only indirectly did we g opposed to the importation there were plenty of both k subterfuge. He was quick With no offer o fact, we need not pute that over the who enter here." ABOUT T Many voters have sympathized with Arnold in his candidacy for mayor because they have accepted literally the statements that he was thrown out of office. The facts are that Mr. Arnold was deprived of his office of assessor by a decision of the state Supreme court, which is composed of a majority of Democrats. It decided that the charter granted Denver by the legislature, known as the twentieth amendment to the state constitution, intended that the city and county government should be joined Therefore all county offices filled at the fall election two years ago were declared vacant. All that conflicted with officials performing the same duty in the city were abolished. The other vacancies were filled by the mayor in keeping with his power as mayor. He chose to supplant Arnold and appoint Hiltz. Hiltz was in a hurry to get the place and would not wait for the Supreme court to oust Arnold, who refused to abide by the court's decision and voluntarily withdraw. So he used crowbars and violence and took the office. The Supreme court thereupon told Hiltz that he had no right to use mob violence in a land of law. The law question decided was the manner in which Hiltz got the office, not the right of Arnold to hold on. Thereupon Hiltz sought to have the court remove Arnold legally, which it did but said that Hiltz could not take the vacant place because he was already a state senator and could not hold two constitutional places at once. Shackleford is now assessor, legally so, and Arnold misrepresents his case when he says he was crowbarred from office and gives no details. His claim of lower taxes is just as flimsy. As assessor he merely sets a valuation on property. Thereupon the school board, the state, the city, and the county, say how much money they need to do the public business for a year. Having agreed upon this amount, which is called the "budget," the percentage of taxation needed is figured out and the "levy" is made. It happens that Denver through Mayor Speer and the city council asked for less money this year, so taxes have come down—one good act for which they should get credit. Yet Arnold, with characteristic gall, claims credit for that. Had Arnold cut the valuation in two, the various departments of government could have raised as much money as ever by the simple expedient of raising the levy, an act that Arnold could not have prevented.

Bishops Turner, Schaffer and Smith Among First Speakers. Kansas City, Mo. - Representative African Methodists from all sections of the United States, the West Indies and Canada are gathering here to attend the twenty-fourth quadrennial session of the general conference of the African Methodist Episcopal church, which opens in the Allen A. M. E. church Monday, May 6. The delegates will number more than 500 and will represent 800,000 members of the strongest colored Methodist body in the world. At the forthcoming session reports from all departments of the church will be received, laws made and revised, the general needs of the denomination discussed and several new bishops and all of the general of ficers elected. The new bishops are to take the places of Bishops Edward W. Lampton, Abraham Grant, James A. Handy and Wesley J. Gaines, who have passed away since the last general conference. Prominent among those mentioned in connection with the bishopric are John Hurst, financial secretary of the denomination; W. W. Beckett, secretary of missions; G. W. Allen, editor of the Southern Christian Recorder; T. N. M. Smith, W. D. Chappelle, president of Allen university; Joshua A. Jones, former president of Wilberforce university; J. M. Conner, Little Rock, Ark.; F. Jesse Peck, California; James Dean, Florida; William T. Vernon and H. T. Kealing. Revs. A. L. Galnes, Carl M. Tanner and the present incumbent, R. R. Wright, are aspirants for the editorship of the Christian Recorder. Dr. C. V. Roman and the Rev. R. C. Ransom are among those mentioned to succeed H. T. Kealing as editor of the A. M. E. Church Review, and John R. Hawkins, commissioner of education for the denomination, is among the aspirants for the financial secretaryship. Dr. D. J. Jordan, president of Kittrell college, wants to succeed Professor Hawkins as commissioner of education. Rev. M. W. Thornton of Philadelphia is among the aspirants for business manager of the A. M. E. Publishing House, in Philadelphia. The various boards of the African Methodist church have met here this week to receive annual reports from their agents. These meetings are usually held in the city, where the headquarters of the respective boards are located. Bishop Henry M. Turner, the senior prelate, will call the general con- DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, MAY 11. 1912. The Republican Ticket Is Best Dewey C. Bailey.....Mayor Thomas Everard Williams.....Sheriff Albion K.

A great array of speakers will take part at the formal opening service. The general conference is made up of lay and clerical delegates from each annual conference. Prior to 1868 every elder who had traveled for six years was a member of the general conference. The next session of the general conference will probably be held at Mother Bethel church, in Philadelphia, in connection with the centennial of African Methodism. Callie Bar Association Committee's Action Insult to Whole Race. The attempted ousting of Hon. William H. Lewis, assistant attorney general of the United States, from the American Bar association by its executive committee is most reprehensible and indefensible, says the Boston Guardian. It is frankly done solely because he is a colored man. Therein lies the most reprehensible part of it. It is simply pure color prejudice. No complaint is made against Mr. Lewis as to ability or character. Such would not suit the purpose of the executive committee. colored supporters in private audience, and they easily believed what they wanted to believe. But Arnold knew on Monday Night as he knows now that his speeches have been taken down, word for word, since he began his campaign. He knows that his low appeal to race prejudice made at Old Colony Hall unfortunately had two colored auditors; and so he dared not deny our charge in public lest he be confronted with affidavits and verbatim reports of his speech. THE GREAT MASS OF COLORED CITIZENS KNOW WELL THAT ARNOLD DID NOT CONDEMN THE IMPORTATION OF BLACK LABORERS FROM OKLAHOMA AND MAKE THAT A TEXT BEFORE A WHITE AUDIENCE FOR ASKING EMPLOYMENT FOR BLACK LABORERS IN DENVER. At Old Colony Hall he declared his opposition to us and stopped. At Eureka Hall he seeks to lay emphasis on the foreign residence of the laborers- Its report clearly shows it wants to make the association exclusive for white men. For this reason the ousting of Mr. Lewis is an injustice, a proscription atime, at the colored race. It is an insult to the colored race in that it seeks to deny to all colored lawyers recognition as part and parcel of the American people as far as the profession of the law goes, to deny them professional and public social recognition. This proscription for color, this denial of recognition as part of the social and political body, is what the Guardian chiefly fights. We are therefore entirely against the action of the executive committee of the American Bar association in this matter. The personality of Mr. Lewis has no bearing. The method used to oust Mr. Lewis is entirely indefensible under the constitution and bylaws of the association. Mr. Lewis was solicited to become a member. He was recommended by his state council of the association and voted in by the executive committee and in solicitation paid his dues and was given a receipt. Under its rules this completes a membership. The committee, not finding color stated as a disqualification in the rules and constitution, seeks justification in the usual manner because it did not know Mr. Lewis was colored. It must admit his state council knew his color, and as he was not asked by it he had no opportunity for deception. The committee has failed to show that it has the power or authority to do what it sets out to do. ARNOLD IS GUILTY ARNOLD IS GUILTY This the Charge We Made Saturday Which He Fears to Answer. It is almost unbelievable that any man seeking public office would declare upon the public rostrum that he was so prejudiced against one class of citizens that he was not willing for them to be employed on public works. Yet that is the very thing which Henry J. Arnold has done! It happened this way: On Thursday, April 25th, at Old Colony Hall he was addressing an audience entirely composed of white people we presume he supposed. As the climax of a bitter denunciation of Robert Speer and his administration, he shouted his disapproval of the contract system under which Speer is having public improvements made, and wound up with the declaration that "I don't like to see that work done by Oklahoma Niggers, and I don't think you do." He cannot excuse his gratuitous insult by claiming that he meant no harm, for the view we take of this matter is just what his language means and just what a colored citizen who heard him, thought he meant, even though the citizen had been favorable to Arnold's candidacy. We knew that Arnold was a Missouri Democrat, but we never believed that he was so foolish as to exhibit his hatred at this time. Not since a Republican occupied the office of mayor in Denver have Negroes been employed on public works, and if Arnold wins, he is already pledged to keep not. Those Negroes who believed him a safe man to entrust with the city government, and who believed that we were overdrawing the picture when we said that the principles for which the Citizens' party stands would soon mean the loss of the rights we now enjoy can see that with this beginning, Arnold and his party will not be long in outdoing even our gloomy predictions.

DURANGO SOUNDS Durango colored people are aroused over the candidacy of Arnold for mayor of Denver, and have poured a burden of grief into the office of The Statesman that makes it appear that it is risky business to say the least if the ex-Durango business man is entrusted with the destinies of Denver colored people. The letters charge him with prejudice and hatred toward us, and detail transactions which corroborate their contention. We are the more certain ourselves, that Arnold is dangerous to colored citizens, now that this ghost of his past looms up to haunt him, though we were satisfied already by his gratuitous insult at Old Colony hall and his studied silence at Eureka hall. It takes a little man, full of rancor and meanness to stir up race feeling when no chance is given us to defend ourselves, and it takes a mean man, schooled in his bias, to ask favors at the hands of colored voters at the same time that he coolly and contemptuously denies them a man's open door of opportunity. CITY NEWS Mrs. A. A. Ealy and Mrs. M. N. Keelan entertained the "Datie Club" Saturday evening in honor of their house guest, Mrs. M. Travick-Morris of Coffeyville, Kansas, a former member of the club. A delightful evening was spent. Mrs. Nora Fairbanks was hostess of a lovely dinner Wednesday evening, complimentary to Mrs. Travick-Morris. Mrs. Laura Finley added much to the social galactic of Mrs. Travick-Morris by entertaining informally in her honor Thursday evening. Mrs. Travick-Morris was the inspiration of a charming noon breakfast given by Mrs. R. T. Anderson. Covers were laid for twelve. Mrs. Edward Hamilton of Lead, South Dakota; Mrs. Fred Hudson and charming daughters of Guanajato, Mexico, were the guests of Mesdames Ealy, and Keelan Thursday afternoon. After a visit of two weeks, combined with business and pleasure, Mrs. Travick-Morris returned today to her home in Coffeyville, Kansas. Mrs. Laura Finley entertained a few friends Thursday evening, complimentary to Mrs. Morris of Coffeyville, Kans. COLORED WOMEN IN LITERATURE Phillis Wheatley First and Foremost of Them All. SHOULD RUN WEEKLY PAPER. Cursory Glance at the Achievements of Some of the Many Brilliant Women of the Race Who Have Made Valuable Contributions to American Letters. Future Possibilities Pointed Out. First and foremost, of course, stands Phillis Wheatley, the poetess of the revolutionary period. Any inention of colored women as writers would be incomplete without her. Frances Ellen Watkins Harper of Maryland was one of the sweetest of our women poets. Her poem "The Burial of Moses" will rank with any similar poem of its character in the English language. Mrs. Anna J. Cooper is a schoolteacher in Washington, with the mind of a wise statesman. Her book "A Voice From the South" is a most valuable contribution to race literature. Mrs. Josephine Heard, Charlotte Forten Grimke, Miss H. Cordelia Ray and her sister, Miss Florence Ray, are A. H. MRS. LYDIA C. SMITH. also poets. Mrs. Heard, who is the wife of a former minister to Africa, wrote a very readable volume of poems entitled "Morning Glories." Mrs. Grimke has written many very beautiful poems, one of them a masterpiece, entitled "Charles Sumner." The Misses Cordella and Florence Ray have recently published a volume of poems, which they have dedicated to their father, the late Dr. Charles B. Ray. The wife of Dr. Harvey Johnson, Baltimore's leading Baptist clergyman, is a writer of stories suitable for Sunday school libraries. The American Baptist Publication society paid her a handsome sum a few years ago for two books from her pen. Mrs. Johnson is a fine French scholar. Amanda Smith, the noted evangelist, has published an interesting autobiography of her labors in Africa, England and the United States. "Poor Ben" is the title of a biographical sketch of the late Bishop Arnett, from the pen of Miss Lucretia Coleman. Ida B. Wells Barnett in journalism wielded a trenchant pen twenty on thirty years ago, and her right hand has not yet lost its cunning, for she is now editing a weekly newspaper in Chicago as Mrs. Barnett. There used to be several other papers edited by our women. Ringwood's Magazine was an ambitious undertaking and a creditable production. The Woman Era was edited in Boston by Mrs. Josephine St. Pierre Ruffin. There are any number of careful and brilliant women correspondents, some of whom have done and are doing good work on race papers and papers published by white people. Miss Ida Griffin was for a number of years editor of a periodical devoted to the interests of the home and fashion, which circulated largely in the south. Mrs. Mary C. Lawton, wife of the Rev. Dr. William R. Lawton, the successful pastor of St. James' Presbyterian church in New York, contributes regularly to a Brooklyn daily, the Standard Union, and Mrs. Lydia C. Smith is regularly employed by the Brooklyn Daily Eagle. For eleven years Mrs. Smith has reported the daily happenings among our people in Greater New York for the Eagle. She is secretary of the woman's auxiliary board of managers of the Howeas Colored Orphan asylum and vice president of the Fifty-third Street (New York) Young Women's Christian association. There are bright women enough in the race to have a paper all their own, just as their white sisters have, and it is hoped that they will get together and think about it. There are enough women societies of one sort and another to support a paper independent of any help from men, for there are even some compositors among our women, as well as writers, poets and lecturers. Industrial and Higher Education. The difference between industrial and the higher education, as explained by Professor Kelly Miller, is that industrial education develops an instrumentality and the higher education a personality. Professor Miller is dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at Howard university. THE CRIME OF LYNCHING. Attacks Foundation of All True Government, Says Dr. Jones. Under the caption, "The Crime of Lynching Needs National Attention," the Southwestern Christian Advocate, ably edited by that fearless agitator for human rights, Dr. R. E. Jones, says: "The recent reckless taking of life in various parts of the country is an imperative call upon the listless ears and the calloused conscience of the American people. The crime of lynching grows. Constitutional law and procedure weaken. "Permit the former, and the latter necessarily follows. It does not matter what the color of the victim of the mob may be or the crime of which he is accused, when duly enacted law is set aside the foundations of all true governments are attacked and sooner or later means inevitable failure. During the recent session of the Washington conference a resolution was introduced by Dr. Ernest Lyon which was unanimously adopted. "It called attention to the fact that the orderly operation of law and justice is seriously threatened by mob violence; that the practice of lynching human beings without a trial by law, and the more helnous and atrocious crime of burning men alive, are not only on the increase, but are no longer confined to any particular section of our commonwealth. "It is a happy omen that President Taft in a very recent address before the alumni of Howard university and a great audience of colored people in Washington took 'Lynching' as his text." ESCAPES AN AWFUL FATE. A thousand tongues could not express the gratitude of Mrs. J. E. Cox, of Jollet, Ill., for her wonderful deliverance from an awful foul. "Typhoid pneumonia had left me with a dreadful cough," she writes. "Sometimes I had such awful coughing spells I thought I would die. I could get no help from doctor's treatment or other medicines till I used Dr. King's New Discovery. But I owe my life to this wonderful remedy, for I scarcely cough at all now." Quick and safe, it's the most reliable of all throat and lung medicines. Every Estate of Ellen Johnson, deceased.

The Industrial Workers of the World out in California have taken to shotguns and dynamite to express their views on the labor question. It is this kind of Americanism that makes the black citizen wonder whether it pays to be patriotic. For next year, next month or maybe by tomorrow the very men who have committed these outrages against law and order will get trials before juries supposed to be unprejudiced, while any Negro on the filmslest suspicion is subject to mob law. Nor does the community care for whenever lynchers have been tried they have only been made popular heroes. The growth of business and the increase in the number of property owners in the Negro race are creating new conditions which must be met with intelligence and foresight. The old, old cry that we should patronize each other, that we should unite, that we should seek education and build character, takes on new meaning as our equipment for life becomes better. SPARE THE CHURCHES. With no desire to prejudice the case of any political organization, but out of our deep respect for the religious welfare of our people we enter our solemn protest against the shameless manner in which certain politicians have distributed campaign literature in front of our churches after Sunday services. PASSING OF WAITERS IN MAN-ITOU. The Cliff House hotel, which has been working colored waiters for 22 years, changed today and put in white girls. During the busy season the Cliff usually works 75 waiters. A few years ago Manitou furnished employment fro 200 colored waiters. This season there will be about 25 waiters at the Navajo and Grand View hotels. Personally, Mr. E. E. Nichols, owner of the Cliff House, has been a friend to the colored man all of his life, and I believe he is still their friend, but the change is a matter of business. SCHOOLS IN THE PHILIPPINES Effect of Education Upon the Inhabitants-Director White's Work. Manila. There are thousands of public schools scattered throughout the Philippine Islands doing effective work among the inhabitants. These institutions stand closer to the people in their efforts to assimilate the new conditions of government than any other agency. They have become a medium for every reform or policy which the government of the Philippine Islands thinks it wise to inaugurate. Sanitation, hygiene, postal savings banks, domestic science, land distribution, industrial development, agricultural methods—all these are diligently explained to the Filipino student. Fitting him for his natural environic life rather than for the legal, religious or literary profession seems to characterize Philippine education. More and more emphasis is placed on industrial instruction, domestic science, trades and agriculture, not always successfully, because there are many elements to be considered, such as financial limitations, difficulty of travel and lack of aptitude in certain districts, but, on the whole, fairly successful and with benefit to the masses of the natives. Mr. Frank R. White, the present director of education, is energetic along these lines and is getting more and more support for his projects. The Philippine School of Arts and Trades in Manila and thirty-five provincial trade schools (those located outside Manila in the different provinces or political divisions of the islands) and manual training schools have been equipped with full sets of woodworking tools. Twenty-three have been supplied with machinery and several with iron working equipment. Some of these institutions are self supporting from the sale of articles made. Mrs. Martha Miller, who has been so dangerously ill for several weeks, is slowly improving. Mr. D. W. Miller of Great Bend, Kans., arrived last week for an indefinite stay with his mother. The necktie and apron social given at the Baptist church last week proved quite a success. A number of visitors of La Junta were present and report a pleasant time. Miss Sarah Renda and Miss Lena Morton were La Junta visitors last Sunday. Rev. Anderson was in La Junta on business last week.

Mrs. Samuels visited at Holbrook last week and reports a nice visit. Mr. and Mrs. Craig have moved out on a ranch and expect to farm on a large scale. Mrs. Ed. Lawson left Saturday for Newton, Kas., where she will join her husband. Rev. Mendenhall has organized a new Babist church and named it Calvary. The new church will hold its meetings in Hunter building, between 17th and 18th on O'Nell, at No. 1710. There were quite a few out to hear the new pastor last Sunday morning. Rev. Mendenhall, Rev. and Mrs. Washington, Mr. and Mrs. Joe Baker and daughter were the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Lucas Sunday. Mrs. Washington and Miss McLendon planned to leave for California on Wednesday, May 8th. On account of the changeable weather, Mrs. Wm. Ashford has relapsed into a more severe condition. Mr. Jack Gilmore, who has been suffering with a severe cold, is improving. On Wednesday, May 1st, some robbers broke into Mrs. Muse' residence, but fortunately they were frightened away before anything was taken. Mrs. Wm. Redd, who has been indisposed for the past few days with rheumatism, is able to be out again. DOINGS OF THE "JOVIAL D." This troop has men to represent it in every kind of army sport. There is Big Tom, for an example, the great hammer throwing shark and world's wonder at putting the uninitiated wise. If there is any young soldier in the regiment, send him to Big Tom. Everybody knows where to find him. His hours are from one to one. Then there is the troop baseball nine. It is one of the strongest teams in the regiment. Its line-up is as follows: Bradford, second base; Whitney, third base; Sharp, right field; Whiting, center field; Miller, left field; Harcomb, first base; Tickles, short stop; Harrison, pitcher; Allen, catcher. Manager Harcomb challenges any troop team and guarantees them that if any of them play for suds, his team will certainly mop up. The troop has also more high jumping horses than any other outfit in the regiment. There is one horse in the troop that jumps 5 feet 6 inches, while the captain's horse jumps 5 feet 9 inches. The troop challenges any jumping squad in the regiment. Sergeant Woodfork, the troop's crack horse trainer, and in fact one of the best horse trainers in the army, is sick in the hospital. Private Colts, who was thrown from his horse a few months ago and had his neck broken, is somewhat improved. Corporal Harcomb and his beautiful mount, Ned, broke the camera Sunday before last. The troop has, in the person of Private Miller, the only expert rifleman in the regiment. It also has, besides some good comedians, one of the best quartets in the neighborhood. This quartet challenges any other four that has a record. The names of the gentlemen who compose it are as follows: Percy Smith, Charles Johnson, Miller and Rogers. Private Griffin is the troop's champion 145-pound wrestler. He challenges all comers at that weight. The B. F. R. club will give any information desired concerning the sports. The men say that they can clean some, too, and if you do not believe it ask the "Top." Lleut. Burr is now in command of the troop, Capt. Shoultz having been detailed as range officer. Good bye, Troop D. Next week we will pay a special visit to Troop E. Everybody in the regiment is trying out new ideas for rifle practice so that they may be enabled to increase their pay a few dollars. Under the direction of First Ljeut. B. O. Davis, the machine gun platoon is getting to be one of the fastest outfits of its kind in the army. The regular meeting of Joppa Military Lodge No. 150, A. F. and A. M., is the first and third Tuesday evenings in each month at 7 p. m., at the Cavalry administration building. All visiting brethren are welcome. F. H. Clinton, Worshipful Master. W. H. Oliver, secretary. Phone Main 7905. CHEYENNE NEWS. THE STATESMAN DENVER PERSO W. H. Duncan, who is one of the trusted employees of the Hot Springs Company of Glenwood Springs, spent Monday in the city. He is an old political war horse. While he is not actively in the harness now, he sat up long enough to say that the Republicans of the state could do a whole lot worse than name C. C. Parks of his town for governor. Mrs. Georgia Smith has gone to Cheyenne, after spending some time with her mother. James Alexander, Charles Wilson and G. W. Chivis of Los Angeles are in the city. On Thursday, May 16, there will take place the Maypole plaiting and spring carnival given by Evergreen Chapter No. 36, O. E. S., at Old Colony hall. Music by Goodman's orchestra. Admission 25 cents. Miss Geraldine Marshbanks is in the city this week on business. She is connected with the Pueblo paper.

McClure, Williams and Rogers of Pueblo are in the city arranging for the Eagle, with which they are connected, to take part in the city campaign on behalf of the Speer Democrat ticket. In the municipal parade Tuesday there were two colored persons in the asphalt repair department, two policemen in the lines, several hodcarriers in the city shops division, two janitors in the bath house wagon, while Officer Baker on the motorcycle led the way. The auditor's depart ment had one inspector. Engine Company No. 3 made a nice appearance in the Fire Department division. The colored supporters of the Citizens' party have opened headquarters at Twenty-first and Arapahoe streets, with A. J. Fitzpatrick in charge. Week before last in a meeting which was remarkable for the generous mention it received in the daily press, the colored women of Denver organized into a Women's Republican club, with Mrs. DePriest as president and a large corps of co-workers in other offices, and fired their first gun in the campaign in a house meeting at which Mrs. Dewey C. Bailey, wife of the candidate for mayor, and other prominent women were present. This club has made of Mrs. DePriest's home permanent headquarters, with literature, organized committees and the like in full blast for Republican success. It is to hold a monster rally next week. The young men of the city have a Young Republicans' club, which was organized on last Friday night at headquarters, and has since held a rally, well attended and thoroughly enjoyed, Thursday night of this week. Headquarters sometimes present a very busy appearance. Since the opening Tuesday of last week, its work has begun to rise by leaps and bounds so that it seems to have found a place in the campaign otherwise not filled. The Odd Fellows of all branches of the order will assemble at Shorter church next Sunday afternoon where they will have their annual sermon preached at 2 p. m. The attendance will exceed all past records. FOR RENT—A nice large front room in modern house, with use of kitchen, for man and wife. 1750 Humboldt street. Phone Blue 1260.

Rice, the lodge secretary. Mrs. T. H. Webb's home on Thirty-second street was well filled on Wednesday evening with voters, principally from the Fifth ward. Several prominent candidates on the Republican ticket came, among them Dewey Balley, L. C. Greenlee, Miss Shoe, Harry Newcomb and several for minor offices.

CURE IS EASY. 2310 Dearborn, Chicago, Ill. For several years I suffered with rheumatism and took several kinds of medicines and seemed to get worse. At night I could not turn myself over without assistance and suffered untold misery in my arms, shoulders and back, and one of my legs grew stiff and I feared I would become a cripple, but thanks to Bates' Twentieth Century Wonder Powder, after taking three bottles I am able to do my work with ease and comfort, can rest at night as though nothing had ever troubled me. So to every one troubled with rheumatism I recommend Bates' Twentieth Century Wonder to the highest. GEO. WILSON. Sold by J. J. Baxes, manufacturer 2910 Glenarm place, Denver.

Vickery, who elected city auditor a colored clerk un three successive ten- fice. That's the kir- ism that makes the feel that the grand c ognizes him as a n also that Mr. Vicker his reports being the office. Therefore w ourselves justice, and LY REMARKABLE TRIBUTE TO MUSICAL GENIUS. Two events marked the week's happenings which bear the strongest kind of testimony to the musical genius of the race. One was the trip being made by Bandmaster Wade H. Hammond of the 9th Cavalry band to England, where he will be enrolled in the Royal Musical School for Bandmasters at Hinslow, near London. He passed through Denver Tuesday, stopping over in Kansas City, his old home, two days. He returns in October. The extended leave of absence he receives and his assignment to this school, a courtesy extended by the British government to the American government, is an act unparalleled in the history of American army bands of either race, and the more remarkable that the recipient of the honor is a Negro. Unlike in this country, where the ability of the bandmaster marks the attainments of the band, Great Britain teaches band music as a branch of the musical art in this special school and to Mr. Hammond as the instructor of the best regimental band in the army the chance to enter has been an ambition for months, now realized through the interest of the war department in his work. His expenses are borne by regimental funds and he is still in the service though abroad. The other event, or rather the news of the other event which has come to light this week, is the hard-won recognition for ability on the piano which has come to Miss Dimple Gatewood in the East Denver high school. It appears that special work in the school is assigned to the girl having the most proficiency, the ability being determined by tests made by Mr. Whiteman, the well known leader of the city choirs and choruses. Through the kindness of Mr. Remington, one of her teachers, and her own ability, Miss Gatewood has been tested and accepted to do the special playing. So well has she done that Mr. Whiteman is now asking her to play for him when he teaches in other high schools of the city than East Denver. There is the possibility that in the near future she will be a student under one of the great pianists of the city. NOTHING DOWN With two years' private music lessons free. Sale now on.

THE STATESMAN-5 The Kind of M Us Repu The Kind of Man that Makes Us Republicans Friendly talk is pleasing, but friendly actions count more. There is one candidate upon the Republican ticket, A. K. Vickery, who wishes to be re-elected city auditor, who has had a colored clerk under him during three successive terms in public office. That's the kind of Republicanism that makes the colored citizen feel that the grand old party still recognizes him as a man. It happens also that Mr. Vickery has made good, his reports being the best ever in that office.

NATIVES ARE EAGER TO LEARN President of Liberian College on West Coast Brings Message of Hope and Good Cheer From Foreign Field Race Wants Bishop In M. E. Denomination. Minneapolis, Minn.—The question of a member of the race as bishop to supervise the work of the colored conferences of the Methodist Episcopal church is agitating the minds of many of those who are here attending the quadrennial session of the general conference of the Methodist Episcopal church, which will be in session until about the last of May. The question of a colored bishop has been generally discussed during the past three years. The idea meets the unanimous approval of the colored delegates, and many of the whites have expressed themselves strongly in favor of the election of such a person. Dr. J. W. E. Bowen of Gammon Theological seminary and M. C. B. Mason, secretary of the Freedmen's Aid society, who were aspirants in past general conferences are mentioned in connection with the honor. Among the new ones are Dr. Robert E. Jones, who has made a fine record as editor of the Southwestern Christian Advocate; Dr. W. H. Brooks pastor of St. Mark's church, New York city; Dr. Isaiah B. Scott, missionary bishop to Liberia, and Dr. I. L. Thomas assistant field secretary of the board of home missions and church extension. Dr. Thomas is a member of the Washington conference, where he filled some of the most important appointments. As a platform orator he is in great demand, and during his eight years' incumbency of his present position he has done a telling work of great magnitude. Prominent men of JOHN H. HARRIS the church are said to regard him as one of the best planners in the denomination and the possessor of those qualities essential for the episcopacy. Prominent among the many colored delegates here are: Revs. M. C. B. Mason, one of the secretaries of the Freedmen's Aid Society; S. S. Jolley of Cambridge, Md.; C. A. Tindley of Philadelphia, C. C. Jacobs of the board of Sunday schools, Robert E. Jones, editor of the Southwestern Christian Advocate; I. Garland Penn, one of the assistant secretaries of the Epworth League; M. J. Naylor of Baltimore, R. S. Lovinggood of Texas, M. W. Degan of the same state and John H. Reid, president of the College of West Africa, at Monrovia, Liberia, and an assistant consul general of the United States to Liberia. Dr. Reid has been in Liberia for the past seven years, and his efforts have resulted in a great educational awakening in that country. He is a delegate to the general conference, representing the Liberia conference. During his administration at the college the importance of the work has grown to such proportions that more accommodations are needed for the 300 or more students that were enrolled last year. He is also desirous of strengthening the various departments of the college and to that end will try to raise $20,000. Dr. Reid says that the natives are greatly interested in education, and that the establishment of a number of scholarships will aid them to be clothed, lodged and fed while attending the college. He says that all people who are interested in the development of Africans should help in the campaign to raise $20,000 for the College of West Africa. One hundred scholarships would do untold good. President Reid is a native of the United States, having been born in Baton Rouge, La., March 4, 1862. He was educated in the public schools of his county and New Orleans university, graduating from the college department of that school in 1891. He joined the Texas conference in December of that year and for that year and the next was president of Houston (Tex.) academy.

Mr. Jessie Smith, a special police in this city, is fast proving himself to be Old Sleuth himself, and in the past two years has done many creditable deeds that have gone down on the records. A few days ago Mr. Smith had the pleasure of capturing a thief by the name of John Pennington at 2316 Champa street, with about $200 worth of stolen goods which he had taken from a house on Walnut street. Mr. Smith has the cleverness of a Sherlock Holmes and the cunningness of a fox and in time should become famous as a Negro detective.

Their work is fast, humorous and clever, and they are both quite capable of leaving you laughing when they say good-bye. Every organized body of colored women will rally to the support of the Colored Women's Republican club by attending their big meeting Monday night at Shorter's church, Twenty-third and Washington avenue. Come and hear J. W. Springer, Mrs. Dewey Bailey, Mrs. Elizabeth Fisher and other well known speakers. known speakers. MRS. De PRIEST MRS. FALLINGS. HELP WANTED. The Dear Field Settlement of Negroes in Weld county, Colorado, has 23 families located, who control 4,000 acres of land, by homestead and desert act. The settlement has a population of 75 and all are jubilant over the prospects of a prosperous season. Those who stayed in the settlement the past winter are not complaining of their hard time and loss of stock; unfortunately most of their horses died from exposure and lack of food, as the crops were not sufficient last year to tide them over the long winter. Like thousands of others, who suffering from last year's drought, some are in need of assistance in the way of horses and seeds. The white people all over the state are banding together to help their unfortunate brothers and sisters in the country. It would be a most commendable act if some of our philanthropists and ministers would take upon themselves the duty of assisting these deserving people, who are sacrificing for the betterment of the condition of the race. They need about six teams and about 5,000 pounds of seeds and about 5,000 pounds of feed. These people are not beggars and are willing to give such security as they may have to return the money from the proceeds of their earnings. One old couple, Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Thomas, who had in a crop of corn last year, lost both of their horses and have given up all hopes of assist more, to put in a crop, with a hoe to fee their chickens and pigs. Mr. Howard Troutman, who has recently returned from the settlement, can verify this statement and also vouch for the prospects if these people are assisted. There are locations for about ten families on government land. We need a blacksmith, carpenter, plasterer and brick mason, as those who are able to build are improving their homes. Mechanics who were located in the district would be benefitted. We hope that the people who are in a position to help the deserving in Dear Field Settlement will investigate and lend their assistance. JAMES MATLOCK, Dear Field Settlement, Masters, Colo. I will move to 929 Twenty-first street, on or about the 15th of May, where I will be pleased to meet my old patrons, as well as new ones. This tonsorial parlor will be fitted up with hydraulic chairs and cabinet case and all modern improvements. I thank my patrons for their loyalty in the past six years and extend to them a cordial welcome, hoping to give perfect satisfaction in the future. HELPS A JUDGE IN BAD FIX.

GEORGE RICE HOVEY. President of Virginia Union University Visits the North. Richmond, Va.-The northern tour of Dr. George Rice Hovey, president of the Virginia Union university, which he recently concluded, was very successful. The trip was made primarily for the purpose of more fully acquaint ing the general public with the work of the school, what it is doing along the line of higher education for young men, the ambition and success of its students and graduates and to present the urgent needs of the institution for new dormitories and a larger industrial plant. The present school is a combination of the old Richmond Theological institute and Wayland seminary, formerly located in Washington, and other interests under the auspices of the American Baptist Home Mission society. The curriculum of the new university ranks with that of other schools of similar object and atm. The present group of buildings, twelve or more in number, are of granite, with all the facilities for the health and comfort of the faculty and students, including electric lights. While in the north Dr. Hovey visited a number of the graduates of the school before and since the consolidation. Among them are successful pastors of large churches, lawyers, doctors, editors and business men. Included in the list are such men as Rev. Dr. George B. Howard of Pittsburgh, Rev. Dr. George E. Morris of Morristown, N. J.; Attorney Wilford H. Smith of New York, Rev. W. A. Harrod of Hartford, Conn.; Dr. Drs. A. Clayton Powell and W. P. Hayes of New York, Rev. Drs. Holland Powell and William Maurice Moss of Brooklyn and N. B. Dodson, editor of the Afro-American page, a weekly illustrated news service issued through the American Press Association, in New York. Dr. Hovey in his lectures, which were illustrated from photographs of the buildings of the present and former school, referred with pride to Generals Morgan and Moorehouse, Dr. G. M. P. Kling and Dr. McVickar as men who wrought well for the advancement of the colored people in education and moral uplift. Every alumnus will do his duty in a financial way toward a fund for the erection of a new dormitory and industrial building. VILLARD ON LEGAL RIGHTS. Cendemna Color Line Policy of American Bar Association. The action of the executive committee of the American Bar association in withdrawing the name of Assistant Attorney General William H. Lewis from the membership roll has caused much dissatisfaction among fair-minded men of the legal profession as well as among many prominent public spirited men who believe in a square deal. From a national standpoint the thing looks bad in view of the high standing and character of Mr. Lewis, and it looks worse when the reputation of the Bar association is taken into consideration. The letter to the president of the Bar association written and sent by Mr. Oswald Garrison Villard. editor of the New York Evening Post and chairman of the board of directors of the National Association For the Advancement of Colored People, on the subject is well worth reading, the full text of which is here given: New York, March 8. Mr. Lewis Cass Leddy, President of the Association Bar Association. American Bar Association. My Dear Sir—The board of directors of this association wishes to address to you its purpose at the action of the executive committee of the Bar association in regard to Mr. William H. Lewis. We believe this action to be illegal and contrary to the principle of justice for which your association must stand. We cannot think that it reflects the opinion of the body of high minded, intelligent men who make up your membership. There is a growing criticism today of the attitude of the courts in the United States toward colored men. We ourselves have found numerous cases of discrimination solely because of color. If an organization pledged to advance the science of jurisprudence, to promote the administration of justice, shows its race prejudice by excluding a man regularly elected into its membership when it fails. This is the criticism will be justified, and it will be justified as applied to men high in the legal profession whom we have had a right to believe stood for the impartial administration of the law to black and white like. We wish to express to you our profound conviction that the effort to dismiss from your membership because of his color a man of merit and high attainment is a denial of justice and a blow at democracy. Yours truly, OSWALD GARRISON VILLARD, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the National Association For the Advancement of Colored People. Next International Conference In 1915.
