Your Word is Good as Gold, but it Takes Money to Buy---Pay Your Y. M. C. A. Pledge Promptly TWENTY-FIFTH YEAR. Number 45 thentic information on this subject. In fact I called up Mr. Wood at Douglas, Arizona this morning and mentioned this matter to him and he replied that he would certainly be very glad to correct such a report as he personally knew that it was not true. I am here on the ground; I know; I see. I make notes and few papers that have published anything at all of this fight and its results have given the people facts. Facts are what the press is supposed to publish and not street gossip—the same as some yellow journal. Paragraph 2 of the article I desire to correct is beyond belief among those familiar with border conditions and wholly untrue. Mexican Federal generals not only use the services of members of members of foreign armies, but at this writing the Mexican Federals are secretly seeking those familiar with machine guns and are tempting them with offers of $10 per day for their services. In summing up we find that the facts are these: No Negro troopers of the Ninth U. S. Cavalry are between fires; none are in a fix; none have joined General Ojeda; the Federal generals employ the services of as many foreigners as will enlist their services with them; and that Colonel Gonzales is not correct in his statement; and that an injustice has been done the members of the Ninth U. S. Cavalry an injustice which the associated press should be glad to correct and your paper to withdraw by publishing this note. Thanking you for trouble and kindness in advance, I am, BETTER FORGOTTEN A painting entitled "To the Highest Bidder," representing a negro slave woman with her child standing on the auction block, was rejected today by the Brooklyn Institute because it might "tend to keep alive the memories that had better be forgotten." The picture was painted by Harry Roseland, a Brooklyn artist, and offered to the institute by Charles A. Schieren, a former Brooklyn mayor. Mr. Schieren said that he would not protest the institute's decision, but the artist declared he would ask the art committee for a hearing. He insists that his work should not be barred except for a defect in quality, but that no such point has been raised against it. To The Editor: Permit me to correct an error of news item which appeared in your paper under date of April 10, 1913, and under the associated press despatch. This article is headed: "Negro Troopers Between Fires." The Ninth United States Cavalry Regiment has been on border patrol duty since September 13, 1912, and during that time the regiment has lost by desertion five men, three of whom have surrendered and the other two are reported to be within the limits of the United States. It is not often that the Associated Press news is disputed, but the representative sending the news as printed in your paper was certainly not careful in the gathering of his reports nor could he have been familiar with conditions along the border or with conditions in this regiment as to desertions. General Ojeda with forty-four officers and two hundred and ninety eight men crossed on the morning of April 13, 1913, into American territory and surrendered to the Commanding Officer of the United States troops at Naco, Arizona. Every one of the three hundred and forty-two men were seen by me. I was present at the surrender, accompanied them to the camp and was also present when a third count was taken of them. Daily my duties causes me to visit their camp. Daily have I talked with the officers and men, and have by each and every one been assured beyond a doubt that never at any time during the present or past revolution has General Ojeda employed the services of deserters, who claimed to have been formerly members of the Ninth U.S. Cavalry. In fact, he has never had the pleasure of a colored man serving under him. (Such was his answer.) Further not one of the men who crossed with that command were colored; not one of those found dead or wounded in the streets of the Mexican town across the line were colored. All of them were Mexicans and Yaqui Indians. General Ojeda was personally questioned concerning this report and he most emphatically denied ever having had a negro trooper from the Ninth U. S. Cavalry in his command. We still (April 24, 1913,) have General Ojeda and his men under guard at this camp and your representative could very easily visit here and visit here and secure first hand au- Very respectfully. very respectfully, EDWARD YORK, ist Sergeant, Troop A, . Ninth, Cavalry, Naco, Arizona DENVER, COLORADO, MATURDAY, MAY 31, 1913. The World Problem Monday evening, May 19, Dr. W. E.B. DuBois, Editor of the Crisis, of New York City, addressed the people of Kansas City on "The World Problem of the Color Line." Dr. DuBois was at his best and seldom has a Convention Hall crowd listened to a more logical or more convincing argument than that of the doctor. He said in part: "I will discuss for their relation to the one of the world's most nations of Europe are ships. The cost of window every Negro states for the next amount of taxes raise government the last wars or press this great expense to prepare and pay built up a civilization in races making it despise one another asear becomes a prose, the Japanese. "The next great problem this twentieth century wee men have tried to treat it is to make them helpless. As this failed with the women. Women must have these responsibilities. We start young men from New York women of the world, why no respect for the darken men. "The next problem is the way to mistreat the blacks that existed. But the problem of this, because of man's imor blood, and he owes it to them. We must not be done, but to go beyond. "Opportunity is not the opening of gates in that cities that might present the problem of work problems that concerns the led the Negro problem c are fortunate in being in millions of colored people. I will discuss four world problems: relation to the Negro problem, the world's social problems. Europe are constantly building the cost of one of these battles, recovery Negro college in the next fifty years. Of taxes raised each year by the government the most of them go to taxes or preparations for the future expenditure of money is due and pay for war, because civilization that despises all making it easier for the white people another. Hence the problem a problem of the Negro in Japanese and the Hindoo. Next great problem is the problem of the upstart sententury we find no great cities without we tried to treat the women as they treated the men helpless and then allow their friend is failed with the Negro even so it has for women must have responsibilities and the responsibilities. Women cannot be lifted up from New York, Paris and London to one of the world. Because these men come out for the darker women, but with no respect. Next problem is the problem of children. But the blacks that now the poor children in the problem of children becomes one of the man's imorality, that is, he leaves behind and he owes it to them to leave conditions. We must not have our children come to go beyond it. Unity is not the opening of gates to a humble gates in that human being, so that he will right present themselves. Problem of work and wages is another of the concerns the Negro. Until these social Negro problem cannot be settled. The Negro state in being in this country, where we can colored people and must be heard." "I will discuss four world problems and show their relation to the Negro problem. War is one of the world's social problems. The nations of Europe are constantly building battleships. The cost of one of these battleships would endow every Negro college in the United States for the next fifty years. Of the great amount of taxes raised each year by the national government the most of them go to pay for past wars or preparations for the future wars. This great expenditure of money is necessary to prepare and pay for war, because we have built up a civilization that despises all the darker races making it easier for the white races to despise one another. Hence the problem of war becomes a problem of the Negro, the Chinese, the Japanese and the Hindoo. "The next great problem is the problem of the uplift of women. In this twentieth century we find no great cities without fallen women. The men have tried to treat the women as they treated the Negro—that is to make them helpless and then allow their friends to care for them. As this failed with the Negro even so it has failed with the women. Women must have responsibilities and the powers to carry out these responsibilities. Women cannot be lifted up by sending out smart young men from New York, Paris and London to prey on the darker women of the world. Because these men come back with not only no respect for the darker women, but with no respect for any woman. "The next problem is the problem of children. It has been so easy to mistreat the blacks that now the poor children are being mistreated. But the problem of children becomes one of vital importance to us, because of man's imorality, that is, he leaves behind him his flesh and blood, and he owes it to them to leave conditions better than he found them. We must not have our children come up to what we have done, but to go beyond it. "Opportunity is not the opening of gates to a human being, but the opening of gates in that human being, so that he will realize opportunities that might present themselves. "The problem of work and wages is another of the world's great problems that concerns the Negro. Until these social problems are settled the Negro problem cannot be settled. The Negroes of America are fortunate in being in this country, where we can speak for the the millions of colored people and must be heard." TOBE JOHNSON APPOINTED Under the new admin isbit is the first to appo Tobe Johnson was a duties about June 1st isbit when he was she on the list as a first ne new administration, Commissione first to appoint a colored man. Johnson was appointed jailer and will out June 1st. Tobe was an appointe he was sheriff, and his excellent rist as a first choice. Under the new administration, Commissioner of Safety Nesbit is the first to appoint a colored man. Tobe Johnson was appointed jailer and will enter upon his duties about June 1st. Tobe was an appointee of Mr. Nesbit when he was sheriff, and his excellent record placed him on the list as a first choice. We congratulate Mr. Nesbet upon his appointment and his friendliness to the race. He has moved up a peg in our estimation, and his attitude toward us will be watched with interest. Many Negroes voted for him, and without their vote, the outcome would have been different. We hope the other officers will be equally as thoughtful, or even more so. Among us are many men and women who are capable of doing anything. Give them a chance and they will make good. FACTS IN THE CASE Reprinted from a Lincoln, Neb, paper, giving the thoughts of an unprejudiced mind of a white writer: We suppose the conviction of Jack Johnson for violation of the "white slave" law will be popular. Johnson is a dangerous man to be at large. He has been reckless with his automobiles. He added one to the low saloons of Chicago. He seemed to have an irresistable attraction for white women of a certain type, proved by the fact that he could marry a second within a half year of the suicide of the first. Johnson has been a bull in the china shop of civilization. To the shambles with him. But while sentencing Johnson let us be slow in visiting absolute wrath and condemnation upon him. The big black prize fighter could plead extenuating circumstances. We all admit that environment has much to do with a person's character. Johnson's progress toward a prison door has been the consequence of a peculiar environment, an environment made for him, or at least tolerated by many who now join in the hue and city against him. White society encourages an institution which inevitably forces men into fame and wealth by the force of sheer brute strength. The man who can "lick any man on earth" gains in a two hour fight what the average man of equal intelligence and probably higher mind cannot hope to earn in a life time. Jack Johnson without training in self restraint, without practice in the proper use of money, came into a fortune at the Reno ringside three years ago. With fortune came fame sufficient to turn the head of a man, to say nothing of a child mind like his. White vultures, men and women, gathered to divest him of his wealth. Others, fools rather than knaves, came to shower him with sickly sentiment. White men or women with centuries of civilization behind them usually make fools of themselves when lifted suddenly by the the rocket of fortune. What else could be expected of black Jack Johnson, only a generation or two out of the African wilderness, brought thus into contact with a highly sophisticated class? We created the environment that made him what he is, first having brought him---his ancestors--here by selfish State historian & Natural History Society the Denver Star FIVE CENTS A COPY ng News g the Race. force. He is little more responsible for his conduct than the beast led to the ring to be the central figure of a bull fight. Small right have we to feel anything but sorrow and pity over Jack Johnson, sorrow for our own mistakes and pity for his. A BIGGER AND BETTER PAPER The problem of publishing an up-to-date newspaper is no small one, especially in a city where live news are scarce. This company now intends to give to its readers, regardless of difficulties and expense, one of the best race papers in the United States. It is your paper; you pay for it, and we believe you should have a good one. We are communicating with several eastern writers and news services to furnish us weekly letters, which will put us in touch with hapenings of the race throughout the country. To carry out our plan we are forced to ask our readers' assistance. The practice of allowing subscriptions to run from one to five or ten years, we want to dispense with. The bill becomes large and oft times causes unnecessary discussions, hard feelings and loss of friendship. In order to avoid these things and to have our readers at peace and harmony, we are going to establish the custom of collecting fifty (50) cents every quarter, beginning between June 1st and June 15th. Those who have paid in advance will be given credit for such, and those who wish to do so will save 50c on the year by paying $1.50 in advance. All subscriptions are due this company from March 15. We hope our out-of-town subscribers will join us in this undertaking. Pay your subscriptions and help put Denver on the map. Grand Opera Given by Club No. 9 and Club No. 100, of Shorter Chapel, Tuesday, June 3, at Shorter Chapel. Admission 10c. Opera begins at 8:30 sharp. A big supper with hot biscuits will be served.

THE "PORO" SYSTEM of Scalp and Hair treatment is based on the la- test 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.

By CLEMENT RICHARDSON. Tuskegee, Ala.—With an eloquent commencement sermon by Dr. John E. White of Atianta and a stirring com- mencement address by Dr. Robert E. Jones of New Orleans, Tuskegee In- stitute closed {ts thirty-second com- mencement exercises Thursday. May 29. As usual, special trainloads of vis- ftors, both white and colored, came in from Montgomery, Opeleika and Bir mingham, Ala., while through the coun- try as endless caravan of wagons, buggies, horsemen and people afoot raced with sunrise in getting on the Tuskegee grounds and “fixed” before the exercises began. For a decade or so Tuskegee insti- tute bas followed the scheme of Illus- trating {ts students’ commencement speeches with some phase of the work the speaker bas done in bis trade. As the school bas about forty industries. nice picking is required in order to get around or to get the trade at which the student can work and talk or, rather, speak at the same time.

With this in view subjects of the kind following were discussed and 1! lustrated by the students: Lilla Washington, niece of Principal ‘Washington, graduating as a milliner and from the teachers’ professional course, showed how the various branches could be taught by means of common material. Choosing corn as ber material, she illustrated how this com mon product, suitable for use in city or country, could be made the basis of computation in arithmetic, subject matter for lessons in grammar, gor: rapby and reading and spelling. sbow- ing at the same time the student ac quiring at first hand knowledge of the growth and growing of corn and its many byproducts.

As he told how much and what feeds to give the ani mal to produce a good animal, to pro- duce a good ham and a good “mld ling,” the farmers sat up and took notice, as the saying goes, for they were discovering new methods where- ‘by ple raising in the south could be Gone on a paying basis. Of decided interest to the women folk in the audience was the planning ot a four room cottage by two sir! graduates, Nancy L. Thomas and Eth el Story, the former a gratluate In.cook. ing, and, the iatter In upholstering and handicrafts, With four rooms sta tioned on the platform, the first young lady showed how a spot should be se- lected on which to bulla a cottage, ‘what surroundings It should have, how the rooms should be altuated and how the furniture and utensils should be placed in the dining room and kitchen Her share in the cottage was brought - ‘York 4639 ai M.

An article appearing in Collier's Weekly and reproduced in the Repub- lican of May 28, under the heading, “Non-Assimilating Races Must Be Bx cluded,” dealing with the Japanese problem in California, did not forget to notify the Negro that the great dif. ficulty in being just to the Negro is because he has no home government to which he can appeal. It seems to me that since we are here, not by choice, and have fought, bled and died to help preserve this union, and have shown our allegiance to the American flag, that we at least should be given a square deal and not be assailed every time something turns up which is no fault of ours. We have proven our worth as soldiers and citizens, and all we ask for now is fair play, a square deal, and we will make good. Only give us a chance. THE WATER QUESTION. Now that Denver has won the de- cision against the water company to the effect that she does not have to buy its plant or renew the franclrise, we trust that the water question, at least that part, is forever quieted. The decision says in effect, Denver won in all of ‘ts contentions after a long drawn out and bitterly contested legal battle. The Public Utilities Commission, whicti body is made legal by the decision, have eight million dol- lars of the city bonus at its disposal, with the authority to secure a new wa- ter supply for this city; that is, in case they should not be able to buy the present plant for seven million dollars. We see little, if anything, in it for the Negro either way it goes, but we do think, if the present=eity plant, which involves Denver people's money, should be bought, if the same can be gotten at a reasonable figure. We are tired of litigation, confusion and uncertainty. Buy the water company’s plant, is our advice. THE ALLIANCE PROGRAM. If the People’s Sunday Alliance hau not had the credit of doing anything this year but the producing of this business symposium Sunday, its ob- ject was achieved Sunday afternoon. Business men came there full of live, upt-o-date, truthful facts, so hard and bitter to admit and swallow, but so true and necessary for us to know, realize and gather in order that we might close up the gap. No censure, no criticisms, no theories, but hard, plain, indisputable facts were present- ed; then, too, good information and ad- vice was given. The Star urges the Alliance to repeat the program at length at a large gathering. Mr. Ike Brown spoke on “Farming, its Hind- rances and its Advantages.” He re- viewed his experiences which’ were full of information for those intending to locate on a homestead. He said: “Seven years ago 1 begged a man to take up 160 acres beside me for 30c an acre and he failed or neglected to do it; today that land sells for $30.00 an acre and the man is doing the same janitor work today as he was then and owns less now than he did then. If you happen to die before your land is completed, your children can and will receive something, and not a part of a house or proceeds from the sale of a house, to be spent in a few days, as is the case of one living in the city.” “Coal Dealing” by Mr. Clarence Reeves was very practically given and nearly every one present was guilty in not doing all for our business men that we should. He showed how the big firms cheat their customers who get credit. ‘,Newspapers” by Mr. C. A. Franklin was well given and drove home some sledge hammer truths. More people ought to have heard him. “Real Estate” by Mr. A. A. Waller, and “Fraternities” by L. H. Lightner were well handled and we certainly, above all, ought to realize and appre- ciate that Denver has a fraternal in- surance company employing many of our race, whose NATIONAL HOMB is in Denver. They are worthy of your patronage; we say it unhesitatingly and after some investigation. Talk with Mr. Lightner on the matter, Rey. D. E. Over summarized the varying conditions and suggested a remedy. We need to know the truth, for it is only the truth that will make us free. All in ail, it was one of the best ef- forts of its kind that we have had, and we hope that the board of direc- tors of the Alliance will arrange for a more extended discussion of some of the subjects in the near future. At the close many friends contributed to the support of the Alliance as Den- ver's public forum, and the name of Mr. L. H. Lightner was added to the ‘membership, You will do well to keep in mind these monthly meetings of the Alliance and to watch “The Den- ver Star’: for the topics of discussion | and the speakers. THE FARM We have about 150 families living on farms in Colorado; 90 per cent, are successful and happy; 10 per cent. are not so fortunate because of conditions of soil, location, and lack of practical knowledge to combat those conditions. We will say for argument that these 150 farmers own thelr land—160 acres jeach—which would amount to 24,000 acres, and that they produce from their land crops averaging $10.00 per acre each year. Suppose a family con- sumes $120.00 worth vs farm products per year; then these 150 farmers would produce enough products to supply 2,00 families. The Negro pop- ulation of Colorado is reported to be 11,000 and we will put the purchasing number at 6,000; so you see that we as a class are not producing from the farming industry in Colorado what we consume. To do so would require 300 more practical Negro farmers in Colo- rado. Governor Ammons in his inaugural address, delivered January 14, 1913, sald that Colorado needs 150,000 more farmers to produce what we need for our own use. Of that number 00 should be Negro farmers to supply our demands. Gov. Ammons says also that we are shipping in from other states $4,000,000 worth of eggs, chick- ens, turkeys, ducks and geese per year. vust think of that. If all the Negroes in Colorado went into the poultry business, they could not sup: ply the demand for the products of that one branch of the farming indus try. When a race or a class of people dc not produce what they consume in one way or another, they are a dependent class and are usually called the bur den of a community. Investments in farming are surer than in any other enterprise, and more can be gained from a small in yestment in farming than in any other business. We will say, for instance, that a man with a family goes upon @ homestead of 160 acres and pays for: Piling ¢.0e-riceciaesoneieee- $10.00 Fencing <2 2......cceereeeeeees 50,00 Small house .........-..-...- 75,00 Team of horses and wagon.... 200.00 Grubstake for first year....... 100.00 Seeds and feed .........,..... 100.00 COwWinendy Sets ocrkcewee Ae + ve (0,00 ai Total invested .............$791.00 Suppose he plants crops for the first year as follows: 10 acres of corn worth........$250.00 1 acre garden truck for family use, Worth .................- 120.00 10 acres oats and alfalfa worth. 25.00 20 acres wheat worth......... 270.00 Produce from cow .......-.... 25.00 2 porkers worth .............. 25.00 Raises 200 chickens, ducks and turkeys ......eeeeseee eee ees 100,00 Bggs worth ....-...c:.eeee ee 20,00 Frat a1 hee aA ED ene te ment ..-.-.-.2-2+.-+1.+++ + $635.00 His investment for the first year is $791.00, ana his receipts from the farm $635.00, leaving a total on cash paid out the first year of $156.00. The sec ond year all crops and produce should increase at least one-third, which would make the receipts from the farm amount to $846.66 at the end of the second year, thus making in two years a total of $1,481.66 on an invest. ment of $791.00. ‘There ia no business that can be started in a city with 0 small a capital that will bring such large returns in two years. The fig ures which Ihave given arg taken from practical experience, and will ap- ply to almost any farming community in Colorado. Distance from railroad and market are to be considered. ‘There is no state in the union where practical farming is ag safe an invest ment as in. Colorado, becaise we are not now producing more than 10 per cent. of what we consume, and be cause there is a ready market for everything that is produced. Farm: ing in Colorado is the mainstay of cir- culation, When the farmer raises more than he consumes and sells the surplus, that money is put into circu- lation either through the banks or by purchase of new machinery and ma- terial to increase his earnings, and the merchant in town flourishes because of the ready supply of produce to. sell instead of haying to ship from other states at a much higher price. The demand is permanent, the supply un- stable, Such conditions are the rea- son why all people should be interest- ed in practical farming, We cannot all be farmers, preachers, doctors or lawyers, but each one is very essen- tial to the others, and neither can be successful without the full support of the others. ‘The most vital factor of our exiat- ence in Colorado has been neglected. If 10 per cent, of the interest that has Deen directed oye ee orado, we would be today the im promising state in the union because of our excellent soil, climate, and abundance of natural resources, People have just begun to realize that our most important interest. ha: been neglected and they are now rushing pell mell upon the land to eor rect thelr mistake and catch up witt civilization. In a state like Colorado, where there are 20,000,000 acres of government land. open for settlement that can be had for $16.00 per filing on 160 acres and 3,000,000 acres of state tand the can be bought for from $5.00 to $20.01 per acre, it seems to me that the in telligent classes of the Negro popula tion are overlooking a grand oppor. tunity to solve their own problem, anc bring up our standard of independenes and self-reliance. 0.

Owing to the discrepancies found in the business transactions of the Denver Independent Pub. Co. and the books kept by the retiring management while acting as editor and manager, we are compelled to appeal to all patrons holding receipts for job work during the years of 1911-12, and until March 15, 1913, for their immediate return. All subscribers, both foreign and local (especially the foreign) we appeal to send said company ALL old receipts given by or under the retiring management. In order that no future attempts to collect receipted bills and paid accounts may be made, and to save all further complaints, embarrassments and business extanglements, we will issue duplicate receipts in their stead promptly, giving full credit and acknowledging the same. This statement in no way has reference to nor affects the subscribers and patrons of the "Denver Star." Send receipts also for the New Years edition (1911) display of homes. A CORRECTION. The Star, through unreliable information, erroneously announced the death of Mrs. Nannie King-Johnson. Because of her high standing, her many friends and her supposed sudden demise, the Star printed the information as it was told to us just as we were going to press. We are glad to correct the mistake and cheerfully and sincerely hope for the recovery of Mrs. Johnson from her broken toe. Dr. S. P. Douglass, M.

New York Legislature Appropriater $25,000 For Emancipation Celebration. New York.—Governor William Sulzer has signed the Carswell bill appropriating $25,000 for an exhibition and celebration commemorating the fiftieth anniversary of the emancipation proclamation. The bill was drawn by Sumner H. Lark, editor of the Brooklyn Eye, and presented by Senator Carswell of Kings county, who granted every opportunity to Mr. Lark and his associates to get the measure through before the adjournment of the legislature. Governor Sulzer showed his interest in the matter in an unusually friendly manner by issuing an emergency order so that the matter might receive consideration in ample time for legislative action. The full text of the bill as passed and signed by the governor is as follows: An act to provide for an exhibition and celebration in New York city to commemorate the fifthth anniversary of the emancipation proclamation, creating a commission to conduct the same and making an appropriation therefor. The people of the state of New York, represented in senate and assembly, do enact as follows: Section 1. There is hereby authorized a commission to be known as the emancipation proclamation commission to arrange and conduct for the state of New York an exhibition and celebration to commemorate the fifthth anniversary of the emancipation proclamation. Sec. 2. The commission hereby authorized shall consist of nine members to be appointed by the governor. Any vacancy occurring for any cause in this commission shall be filled by the governor. Said commission shall be appointed by a full and complete exhibit, so conducted as to show the industrial, educational and religious progress of the colored people since the emancipation proclamation. This commission shall within thirty days after its appointment and upon notification by the secretary of state convene in the city of New York to establish a commission for the transaction of the duties devolved upon it by reason of this act. Sec. 3 The members of the commission shall receive no compensation for their services, but shall be entitled to the actual necessary expenses incurred while in discharge of duties imposed upon them by the commission. Such members may appoint a representative of his opinion for all services to be performed in carrying out the provisions of this act, and the commission may also provide for such directors, organizers and clerical assistance and office facilities as it deems necessary, but no salaries or expenses shall be incurred for a longer period than ninety days after the close of the exhibition. Sec. 4 The sum of $25,000 or as much thereof as may be necessary for the accomplishment of the above specified purpose is hereby appropriated out of any money in the treasury not otherwise appropriated for the purpose of this act. Such money shall be paid by the treasurer on the warrant of the comptroller, and the treasurer signify by the chairman and vice chairman of the commission. Within ninety days after the close of the exhibition such commission shall make a verified report to the comptroller of the disbursements made by it and shall return to the state treasury the unexpended balance of money drawn in pursuance of this act.
