TWENTY-FIFTH YEAR. Number 43
The Election and
The Candidates
The time is near at hand when every Negro voter is
to the polls, and by casting his ballot, help elect one
to various offices and also decide certain issues that

subject much study; know for whom and what you
have a reason for so doing.

The time is near at hand when every Negro voter must go to the polls, and by casting his ballot, help elect candidates to various offices and also decide certain issues that are of vital importance. Consequently, each voter should give the subject much study; know for whom and what you vote and have a reason for so doing.
In reference to the candidates we recommend, "The Star" does so after careful consideration. There are so many candidates and so many good things and so many bad things which could be said, that it would monopolize the entire paper, to do so, hence, we will confine ourselves to those who seem to be most in the limelight. No one feels and no one knows, as much as the Negro, the existing conditions relative to work, hard times and privation. A change must come. Daily, our men and women are being turned out of employment, to give way to some class that will work cheaper, every employer is seeking cheap help on account of poor business conditions. There is a reason why our city is being shunned by eastern capital, traveling men refuse to even spend Sunday in the city and families are daily leaving by the thousands. The reigns of government are in the wrong hands and will be, as long as the old line politicians continue to handle them. Now comes your time to help change things and you should do it with a vim. There are candidates who are business men, and some are soldiers of national reputation, who have lived clean lives and have been the Negro's friend and will always be. They are men who have owned and conducted successful business and we believe that they are in preference to professional politicians who, all their lives, have padded payrolls, helped to increase taxes and bled the innocent public for every cent available. Hundreds of poor families, unable to pay the heavy taxes levied by these grafters, have lost their homes and are now begging from door to door or resorting to stealing and various dishonest practices for a living. It's a splendid opportunity to stop these wrongs. Your vote is for individuals and not for parties; there will be no party bosses to go to the front for you, consequently the man you vote for should be a man who does right, knows he is right, fears no man, but renders justice to all.
Concerning so many candidates represented it is impossible to say what we would like about all, yet our selection is from careful study and does not require much comment.
FOR AUDITOR
Paul E. Spratlin, M. D. is an old reliable citizen and in fighting the battles of his race for thirty years a qualified for the office. He is an active worker in Fellows, Masons and other secret orders and the of him being a colored man should draw every co cast. Then too, the strength of the colored is goid judged from the outcome. Don't appear weak, vote Spratlin and for only one choice.
Paul E. Spratlin, M. D. is an old reliable citizen and has been fighting the battles of his race for thirty years and is well qualified for the office. He is an active worker in the Odd Fellows, Masons and other secret orders and the mere fact of him being a colored man should draw every colored vote cast. Then too, the strength of the colored is going to be judged from the outcome. Don't appear weak, vote heavy for Spratlin and for only one choice.
FOR COMMISSIONER OF SAFETY

O'Neil of Alabama, who in the ho Southerners stands out prominent as the Negro's or. Every white man that harms a Negro is pundingly.

In the hands of this office lies the protection of every Negro, and this officer must be our friend. Denver is rapidly filling up with southerners and southern ideas, we must have a man like Gov. O'Neil of Alabama, who in the hot-bed of Southerners stands out prominent as the Negro's protector. Every white man that harms a Negro is punished accordingly. A man who will do that, (because he has already done so), is General Sherman M. Bell, a hero of early Colorado days and a soldier. He is the man who, when a gang of ruffians tried to lynch a Negro in Colorado Springs some years ago (and he wasn't running for office either) defied the mob, encouraged colored citizens to arm themselves and defend their rights. By such noble action he endeared himself in the heart of every Negro. His public life has been clean, and he has always done his duty like a man. He is a commander of men and should command the various departments of protection. We have not forgotten when a prominent man of our race was threatened by a crowd of hoodlums in a certain restricted district, called for police protection. Did he get it? Some of the same men that were officers then are running for your chief protector now. Gen. Bell should have your first consideration; put an X after his name and have a clear conscience.
T. J Early is an old reliable business man, has conducted a successful business many years. He has a clean record and if elected, will play no favorites, but will enforce the law impartially.
Chas. T. Power is an ex-police officer and was most efficient. His ideas concerning the city government are first class and we believe he will live up to his ideas, and if so we have no cause for worry.
We have put particular stress upon the Commissioner of Safety, because, if real trouble should ever arise, to that office we must turn for protection. Elsewhere in this issue we publish in full our list of recommendations and present to you those whom we severally believe are the best fitted to govern.
DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, MAY 17, 1913.
SAY, VOTER!
WORK! WORK! WORK!
This what we need---not politics. Vote the Tunnel Bill and put 10,000 men to work. The Tunnel Bill will distribute Ten Milliard bills among laboring people, and the Negro worker will get his share. Work and a "finger pail" is what Colorado needs, and the what the Tunnel Bill means to every laborer man and woman.
Denver's trade and manufactories need help. The city is on the decline; we need to be closer connection with the outside world, and the Mossat tunnel is the only means. Here the wailings of those who fear the city's reputation from the outcome---the railroad for the burden. Thousands need employment. Are money needs to pass from hand to hand through the building of this tunnel is one good way for it to pass. Don't be among the help push Denver down because it is sliding. Don't forget the Tunnel Bill when you vote May 20, 1913.
Help Burlington Get Permitted
We are in hearty support of the granting of a revocable permit and license to the Burlington Railroad Co. to collect, lay, maintain and operate railroad tracks over, up and accross certain streets, alleys and public places City and County of Denver. We favor any institute road or other organization improving business condition. Denver by the increase in the expenditure of their money building up, enlarging and increasing their own business. We favor builders and boosters every time in preferablereckers and destroyers of capital. Especial interest in best efforts should be shown by the Negro in the best the railroad company that employs thousands of Negroing them a nice livelihood and a pleasant and affectable living. The Negro must show the road that a class which, when called upon, can and will demote how readily it responds to a friend in need. To H. Burlington railroad to open up bigger, better and bright opportunities for the road along business lines may call Burlington to open up to the Negro bigger, better opportunities heretofore unknown to him.
Is what we need----not politics. Vote the Tunnel Bill and put 10,000 men to work. The Tunnel Bill will distribute Ten Million Dollars among laboring people, and the Negro laborer will get his share. Work and a "full dinner pail" is what Colorado needs, and that is what the Tunnel Bill means to every laboring man and woman.
Denver's trade and manufactories need help; the city is on the decline; we need to be in closer connection with the outside world, and the Moffat tunnel is the only means. Heed not the wailings of those who fear the city's indebtedness from the outcome---the railroads bear the burden. Thousands need employment; more money needs to pass from hand to hand, and through the building of this tunnel is one good way for it to pass. Don't be among those to help push Denver down because it is sliding. Don't forget the Tunnel Bill when you vote May 20, 1913.
Help Burlington Get Permit
We are in hearty support of the granting of a revocable permit and license to the Burlington Railroad Co. to construct, lay, maintain and operate railroad tracks over, upon, along and accross certain streets, alleys and public places in the City and County of Denver. We favor any institution, railroad or other organization improving business conditions in Denver by the increase in the expenditure of their money in building up, enlarging and increasing their own business. We favor builders and boosters every time in preference to wreckers and destroyers of capital. Especial interest and earnest efforts should be shown by the Negro in the behalf of the railroad company that employs thousands of Negroes, giving them a nice livelihood and a pleasant and respectable living. The Negro must show the road that he is in a class which, when called upon, can and will demonstrate how readily it responds to a friend in need. To help the Burlington railroad to open up bigger, better and brighter opportunities for the road along business lines may cause the Burlington to open up to the Negro bigger, better and brighter opportunities heretofore unknown to him.

Perhaps not in a generation has a fact been brought to light more horrible than the finding of young colored boys and girls having been sold to Southern families, by the Children's Home and Aid Society. The practice, too, has been going on for years and had become quite lucrative until an investigation was made last week. The Society has sent children into twenty-six states and Canada and no record has been kept of their whereabouts or welfare after the sale was consummated. Such a condition, so much at variance with Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation, and occurring almost under the shadow of the tomb, is a horror's crown of horrors.
For larger colored children, homes are found with southern white families where they can render such service as is peculiar to southern families, says the advertising circular of this society. The condition is slavery of the deepest dye, and we know of no penitentary stern enough to mete out justice to such villians as the promotors of this society evidentally are.
COLORED SALESLADY
'The Imperial Cloak House' Stanley Williams & Co., 118 South State street, Chicago, realizing the value of race trade, have employed Miss Lillian Carter, one of Chicago's most popular young women, to look after the wants of the people of the race that trade there.
The Imperial has an exclusive cloak trade and caters to the best people in Chicago. By addition of Miss Carter to their staff of sales ladies they wish to extend their business.
Mr. Kaskel, the manager, is the only man in America to employ a colored sales lady.
COLORED BOY WINS
Recently the Chamber of Commerce sent out speakers to each school to lecture on "Colorado" and a prize was offered to the pupil writing the best letter on that subject. Frank Lenore in the sixth grade at Gilpin won the honors in his grade. The young man is due much credit, and it should be an inspiration for all others.

THE SPINGARN MEDAL
A white man, interested in the welfare of the Negro, has offered a gold medal to be awarded annually to the man or woman of African descent and the most distinguished achievement during the year in any field of worthy human endeavor. This announcement was made at the fourth annual conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored people, an organization composed of both races, which met at Philadelphia last week to discuss the progress and welfare of cf the American Negro. This association, among whose officers are Moorfield Storey, Oswald Garrison Villard and Dr. E. B. DuBois, has some three thousand members, and fifteen branches scattered all over the country:
The donor of the prize is the President of the Association's New York Branch, Prof. J. E. Spingarn, until recently a professor in Columbia University, New York. His object was not merely to encourage and reward the Colored man or woman, but also to remind the white people of the nation that the American Negro does splendid things every year; that he is not merely a criminal, as the news papers would appear to brand him, but a man with high ideals and with noble and effective achievements. He has promised to hand over $100 every year for which this gold medal, the award of which will be in charge of a committee of five to be appointed by the National directors of the National Association. The first award will be made at the fifth annual conference of the Association next April.
The Association will welcome all suggestions in regard to this medal and its award. If any of our readers would care to make any suggestions, or to propose any man or woman as worthy of the prize, they should write to Miss May Childs Nerney, Secretary, 26 Vesey street, New York.
A FRIEND
Down in Alabama the Negro looks with pride upon one Southern man whom he can call a friend. One who tolerates no evil-doers, punishing alike those guilty of crimes and giving them the full extent of the law. That man is Governor O'Neal. He giving the Negro question considerable thought when he took office declared that the open season for killing Negroes was closed.

In our endorsement of W. H. Sharpley, M. D., it is because we believe him to be a man wholly fitted for the position. Dr. Sharpley has held various public offices, in which he has acquitted himself most creditably. He was health commissioner for eight years and in that position he became thoroughly acquainted with the duties of the office for which he now seeks. To have a competent officer and a good friend in this office, vote for Dr. Sharpley as one of your choices.
LOUIE F. SPRATLEN
For Commissioner of Improvements.
It is with pleasure that we present to you the above candidate. A man that began small and through devotion strictly to business, is recognized among the leading wholesale grocers in the city. His rise is more interesting because he has remembered the "man farthest down" and has extended a helping hand always. Among us live two Negro mechanics to whom Mr. Spratlen gave employment and
Mr. Henry Walker, your real estate friend, is up for commissioner of finance. His announcement is very interesting and should be read by every voter. He is a practical man and would administer the affairs of office in a practical way. He believes in giving and demanding honest value for public moneys. The main idea of his platform is honesty and efficiency which has been the means of his success in his large contracting business in Denver during the past several years.
John Allison for commissioner of property is a business man and a soldier and has high ideas relative to the city government. Believes in mountain parks, more lights for the outlying districts, and various other reasons why we recommend him.
D. C. Burns for commissioner of improvements, came West on the advice of Horace Greeley in 1888 and has made Denver his home ever since. His rise has been steady, having graduated in law from D. U. with honors, and is now president of the Burns Realty and Securities Co., and held some very responsible positions. If elected his dealings will be fair and square.
...Be sure and vote first choice for Sherman Bell for Commissioner of Safety.
Vote for the two Spratiens, our friends.

CAMPBELL CHAPEL, A. M. E. CHURCH.

The services of last Sabbath will long be remembered by the members and friends of Campbell. In the morning, after one of the most largely attended and interesting sessions of the Sabbath school, a congregation that would warm the heart of any minister assembled to hear the fifth of the series of sermons on "Heaven." There were the fullest manifestations of appreciation for the effort upon the part of the Christians. Mr. E. V. Cammel of Payne Chapel, Colorado Springs, was added to the membership at this service. In the evening the church was crowded to hear the Pastor preach a special sermon to the married women and widows. There are many reasons for believing that many hearts were touched and that a number of homes will be just a little bit happier and more prosperous than

VOTE FOR---
It is with pleasure that we present to you the above candidate. A man that began small and through devotion strictly to business, is recognized among the leading wholesale grocers in the city. His rise is more interesting because he has remembered the "man farthest down" and has extended a helping hand always. Among us live two Negro mechanics to whom Mr. Spratlen gave employment and advanced funds for them to buy material and then paid them a profit on the work. From Pueblo we receive good word from other colored employees and associates, who declare him to be the best man on earth. Mr. Spratlen is not a politician, but is willing to sacrifice himself for the betterment of Denver. Talk with him and you will be convinced. Vote for him and you will put a brick in the building wall of Denver.
Harrison S. Vaughn, a hero of the Civil war, a man who gave his right arm for his country, an enemy to all graft, seeks to be commissioner of property. In 1893-4 he was a supervisor and looked towards the interest of the laboring man. Such men are deserving of your vote.
THOS. W. DUNCAN.
For Commissioner of Property,
Receives our endorsement because
he believes in a square deal. When a
man deserves recognition he gets it,
demonstrating the fact by the manner
in which he helped a colored janitor,
now in the courthouse, to hold his job.
Mr. Duncan says it was a pleasure to
do, and we believe if he is elected,
such pleasures will still be his.
John A. McIntyre, the builder, has
given hundreds of colored men em-
ployment. He is not a politician, but
realizes the needs of the city, and as
commissioner of improvements will
no doubt be well qualified.

THE "PORO" SYSTEM of Scalp and Hair treatment is based on the latest scientific and sanitary methods, effecting a healthy scalp thus promoting a growth of beautiful hair.
The "Poro" preparations used in connection with the treatment are made and sold exclusively by myself, having the exclusive right to that name; and I, alone, know the secret of the composition that bears that name. Our claim has always been that when the hair begins to grow as the result of the use of "PORO," it will continue to do so if only the scalp and hair be kept clean. This sanitary method of treatment is also having the desired effect in helping to prevent the spread of diseases, for it is a fact that hair in an unsanitary condition carries the germs of disease which often prove fatal to innocent persons coming in contact with them. For treatment, call on or address:

One of the charter amendments which should receive the vote of every citizen next Tuesday is that relating to public playgrounds.
While providing the means for more and better playgrounds, with more supervision, the amendment will not cause any increase in the tax levy, because its provisions insure one-eighth of the park funds for the use of a non-political playground commission, serving without compensation.
This commission shall be composed of men or women trained in recreational work, and they will be appointed by the commissioner of property if there be one; otherwise, by the mayor.

ion50c A GREAT REVIVAL.
Sioux City, Ia., May 9, 1913.
The fact that Rev. J. P. Howard is a member of the Colorado Conference and is well known throughout the Northwest, it might be of interest to his many friends to learn of his singular success in a revival meeting in Sioux City, Iowa. For a revivalist to break successfully among the chief of sinners, as is true of his three weeks' work here, hampered by the biggest snow in the history of the place that fell in the early part of the week, bespeaks him a vessel of God high in efficiency of spirit, soul and intelligence. Sioux City, with a population of 60,000, is situated in the northwestern corner of the state, at a point within a stone's throw of the states of South Dakota and Nebraska. Her colored population, although about 1,200, with her two churches, a Methodist and Baptist, there never was in 15 to 25 years history of these churches such a copious outpouring of the Holy Spirit. From the powerful preaching of this modern Paul, together with great reasoning, 20 precious souls were converted and 25 reclimed. Among the former, some of the most talented and influential men and women in the city.

"Beware, lest your friends of today
will be your Judas tomorrow." T. J. EARLY WRITES ON COMMISSION FORM.
Some of the candidates for election as commissioners are playing that faithful old trick of catering to the Negro vote by giving one of us a job a few days before election. It seems strange to us that it has taken from May, 1912, to April, 1913, to find out they needed a Negro in their office, in any capacity, and the gall of one of those officeseekers to give orders to wait on "Colored people only." It is time we were waking up to our sense of duty and casting our ballot for those who at least will give us credit of having common sense and not being fooled by their old political trickery. There are men on the ballot that are willing to deal with us as we deserve, and those men we should support. The Denver Star has studied the situation from every angle, and, after due consideration, have presented to its readers men of worth for your consideration. Give them your vote as first or second choice, but in any wise cast a vote for them. They are honest and upright, and to elect them will be a credit to ourselves and the community at large. Think, then act and cast your vote, and may the best men win.
Chronic officeholders are not the ones to elect. "Give us men."
Every Negro should cast his or her vote for Dr. Spratlin, as Auditor. See to it.
To the continuous officeholder:
I gave my continuous vote to thee, What has thou done for me?
The winds did whisper soft and low, And sighed for pity as they answered nothing—exit.
There will be several candidates after Tuesday, May the 20th, that can truthfully say, "I also ran."

JOHN H. BURKE
Dr. Johnson is well known to all the colored people in general and to Scott Methodist church in particular, as it was largely through his efforts that the first $1,500 was raised and paid on the debt of the church. Aside from his Christian, philanthropic and charitable work, he is an earnest, honest, diligent, fair and square man with everybody. His long years of business life, his up-and-up dealings with his fellow men for 30 years easily recommend him for your vote. Besides, he is capable and has both administrative and executive ability to perform the duties of the office. Vote for Dr. Johnson.

T. J. EARLY WRITES ON COMMISSION FORM.
No doubt you have given the commission form of government some thought, as it is something in which every citizen in our city should be interested, that is, who should be the Commissioners to be voted on May 20th.
In looking over the list you have no doubt discovered that there are many politicians seeking to get back into office, and if successful, you know it will mean the old form of government under a new name.
If you want the commission form of government tried out properly, why not start with a new set of officers, so as to enable them to bring about the results we are all seeking?
Mr. Early has lived in Denver 24 years; pays $140.00 in taxes per year, and has never held public office.
He is in favor of a liberal adminis tration, but a well regulated city.
With sincere appreciation of the many kindnesses shown us during the death and burial of our father, John W. Shipton, by our many friends for their floral offerings", the Rocky Mountain Lodge A. F. & A. M.; especially the Master, Geo. Derry; also the Christian Endeavor, for their loving tribute paid our father, we thank and are truly grateful.

Chas.T.Power
Commissioner of Safety
A STATEMENT TO THE PEOPLE.
My political faith is the established institutions of my country that guarantee liberty and justice to all men, and I hold that the source of all law and government is inherent in the people as the sovereign power of the state and nation.
I contend that the progress of our country, and of the community in which we live, toward a higher civilization, depends upon the perfecting of the free public school system of education; upon just and equitable commercial relations that can result only from competition in an open market, free from monopoly; the development of local industry to the extreme limit justified by natural resources. This is my political policy, and as a public official I will labor to secure their complete realization. Upon these grounds I solicit your support and your vote.
Very respectfully,
CHAS. T. POWER.

To the Men and Women of Denver: This is Your Fight D. C. Burns
Solicits Your First Choice Vote for Commissioner of Improvements But if for any reason this cannot be obtained, he then most earnestly desires your second or third choice vote.
THE MAYOR OF BROOKLYN
A vote for me means economy and efficiency I have been working along progressive lines for twenty-five years, and I feel that my interest in it's upbuilding, my experience in public improvements and my knowledge of the city's general needs, qualify my for this particular position. If elected, I shall be your servant and not your master. Vote for me.
Let every Negro man and woman in the City and County of Denver remember--- General Sherman M. Bell is a candidate for Commissioner of Safety. He asks each and every individual for their vote, and suggests A Majority for All the Votes Cast. General Bell is going to be elected Commissioner of Safety, Next Tuesday. He will have control of the Police, Fire and Sheriff Departments for the next four years. General Bell asks everyone to vote FOR, either First, Second or Third choice.
He believes in honesty and square dealing. Are you for Sherman M. Bell? IF there is a Negro voter---man or woman in Denver who is not FOR and is NOT going to vote FOR him next Tuesday, find out who they are and let any of us know so we can let the Negro Protective League Committee of Colorado Springs know.

ADVERTIS-—MENT.
A Believer in Square Dealing
Candidate for
‘The name of Thos. W. Duncan has
been mentioned in connection with
the commission form of government
longer and perhaps oftener than any
other candidate in the fleld.
When the agitation for this new
plan of city government began, he
was one of the first workers in the
cause and gave liberally of his time,
energy and money to further it,
He was urged to become a candl.
date by a large number of represent
ative people, not only in South Den-
ver but all over the city, Having al-
ways been identified with leading re-
form movements, not only in politics,
but in business, his friends felt that
he was abundantly equipped to carry
the banner of business and efficiency
in public life. Having made a suc
cess of his own business, they felt he
could make a success of the city’s
business.
He has therefore become a candi:
date for commissioner of public prop-
erty, and is well qualified for the du-
ties of the position.
Duncan has ‘lived in South Denver
for twelve years and in that time has
built up gne of the largest individual
coal concerns in the entire city. This
has been accomplished by fair deal-
ing and honest treatment to all. He
fs a large taxpayer in the city and
therefore has the personal interest in
public affairs that will make him ear-
nest in his alm to serve the city well.
Mr, Duncan believes in fair dealing,
regardless of race or creed. He can
be approached at any time, always
has a pleasant word and is a friend
to the common people. Help him win.

CHAS. L. KIRK.
Charles L. Kirk, secretary-treasurer
of the Colorado ‘Laundry and Towel
Supply Company, is making a great
race for the office of Commissioner of
Public Property, and his candidacy is
deserving of the consideration of
every voter in the city. Mr. Kirk is
a young business man who has been
highly successful in his own business
enterprises and because of the fact
that he is a heavy taxpayer himseit,
takes much interest in public affairs
from the standpoint of a property
owner. He is a firm believer in pub-
lic improvements and all things to
advance the welfare of the city, and
possesses the ability to see the same
carried out.
We are glad to announce that the
Santa Fe New Mexican, a daily paper
in New Mexico, gave the Williams
Jubilee Singers a column and a half
write up, While in Santa Fe they
were most elaborately entertained by
the civil service secretary, Mr. Chas
Parsons, and wife. Mr. Parsons has
held the chief clerkship in the post
office for years. Mr. Parsons is wel
known in Denver and his friends are
glad to learn of his rapid successful
strides.

W. H. Sharpley
Candidate for Commissioner of Social Welfare
M. H.
First, Is the candidate efficient and will he be a credit to the position which he seeks?
Secopd. Will the colored people receive proper recognition from him, as well as courteous treatment?
The Commissioner of Social Welfare has to deal with the health of the city; he has charge of the hospitals and all matters pertaining to sanitation, hence it is absolutely essential that he not only be a physician, but one who understands that line of work.
Dr. W. H. Sharpley was police surgeon of this city for five years and was health commissioner for eight years, and hence is thoroughly familiar with every detail of the office to which he aspires. The colored people of this city who have come in contact with Dr. Sharpley speak in the highest praise of the courteous treatment they received from him. Their children have been taken and treated at the Steele hospital without an expenditure of a single penny, and when dreaded diphtheria made its appearance in their families, anti-toxin was supplies free of cost to every person. It is things like this that merits the confidence of the people, and it is for this reason we mention these facts. Dr. Sharpley has resided in this city for 38 years, and the fact that he is the president of the City and County Medical Society attests to his standing in the community. His record as an official stands out clear and can speak for itself, and those who have had dealings with him, and especially the colored people, will bear out these statements. If elected, the colored people of this city can feel assured they will have a good friend and that is the most we can say of anyone.

By invitation of the pastor, Rev. J.
A. Thos-Hazell, S. T. B., the moderator of the Denver Presbytery, O. A.
Erdman, an elder in the First Avenue Presbyterian church and perhaps the leading attorney of the city, will occupy the pulpit for the 11 o'clock sermon.
It is to be hoped at the close of the sermon the moderator will represent the Presbytery through its executive commission to the membership of the church. Without exception, every member in good and regular standing is summoned to hear the message of the local head of the church.
Last Sabbath being "Mothers' day" the sermon was adapted to the occasion. All who heard it commended the effort. At the evening hour the mothers, under the presidency of Mrs. Susie Rose, rendered a well prepared program which undoubtedly was the best of Mothers' day renditions of this church. The members and friends turned out in large numbers to pay their respects to the mothers.
FOR THE WEAK AND NERVOUS.
Tired-out, weak, nervous men and women would feel ambitious, energetic, full of life and always have a good appetite, if they would do the sensible thing for health—take Electric Bitters. Nothing better for the stomach, liver or kidneys. Thousands say they owe their lives to this wonderful home remedy. Mrs. O. Rhinevault, of Vestal Center, N. Y., says: "I regard Electric Bitters as one of the greatest of gifts. I can never forget what it has done for me." Get a bottle yourself and see what a difference it will make in your health. Only 50c and $1.00. Recommended by all druggists.

Vegetable Salve and Temple Ointment
I have made a special study for three years of all kinds
of Scalp Diseascs. I first practised it in my own home as I
was told to do, and [ now find ita wonderful preparation. I
cure all kinds of Scalp Diseases, matter what they are. I
grow hair un Bald Heads and Bald Temples. 1 stop hair
from Failing Out instantly and from all kinds of Fevers. 1
also cure Dandrufl, Eczema, Tetter, Pinhead Eczema, Sore
and Itching Scalps and many other Diseases of the Scalp. 1
Grow Hair no matter what kind of ailment you may have. |
can prove wnat I have done in four months’ time for my sis-
ter, Lillie Page. This is her testimonial:
LADIES:—It is no more than fair and right to all con-
cerned that I tell of this wonderful cure. I have been a suf-
ferer from childhood of Pinhead Eczema. I have been to
some of the best scalp specialists, and also some of the best
physicians in Denver trying to get something to cure my
scalp, and stop my hair from breaking off, but they all failed
to do me any good. Mrs. Simpson had then completed her
study of thescalp. I then began to take special scalp treat—
ments from Mrs. Simpson, using her Vegetable Salve and
Temple Ointment. Now my hair has stopped breaking off
and my scalp is cured, and my hair is growing beautifully.

I recognize, ] assure you, the sincerity of your desire to
improve conditions in this city and in that respect we have
a common aim, which jg to make Denver a better city to live
in and a better city in which to do business. I stand for a
LIBERAL administration, but a DECENT city.
Mr. Early has been.a SUCCESS in private business and
willbe a SUCCESS with OUR business. He has lived and
paid taxes in Denver for 24 years and has never held public
office. He believes in dealing generously with all enterprises
that desire to locate in Denver and believes that every rail-
road that is well meaning should be granted a franchise to
come into our cijy to the end that employment may be fur-
‘nished more men and women. i

Gabaidce for
COMMISSIONER of PROPERTY
1 AM NOT A REFORMER.
I believe in equal rights to all, re
gardless of party, nationality or re-
ligion.
What we need in Denver is a con:
servative, business administration.
Mud slinging, factional fights, petty
quarrels and grand stand plays
amongst our city officials mUST
STOP. It hurts our city. It keeps
investore away, and without them we
may ns well close up shop. We need
factories and shops, and as long as
the present state of affairs exists. we
can never get them.
My policies will be printed and dis-
tributed in a few days, and if you
agree with me, then I ask your sup-
port.
Make a cross opposite my name.
Do not vote for three candidates for
the same office. It splits your vote.
You will find my name to be the
first one under the heading “Commis:
sloner of Property.”
