Has Wonderful Chance to put Denver on Woodmen Map. Strong Insurance Company Backs Him Up.
A. C. Cash, who came to our city some ten years ago, has made himself felt as an organizer. When the True Reformers were in their balmiest days, when Denver could boast of ten fountains, when all the leading business, professional and tradesmen were connected with that organization, the fraternal spirit and enthusiasm was at its highest point in Denver. The American Woodmen, having carefully scrutinized Mr. Cash's church record at Zion Baptist church and after making such
A. C. CASH.
other neccessary investigations as they deemed proper and sufficient, hired him to do for them what he did for a foreign fraternal society. The Star feels proud of the American Woodmen, because its headquarters are in Denver; because it is of Negro brain and business acumen and has met the conditions of every Southern State Insurance Department and, further because only recently it bought $30.000 worth of Denver bonds.
We are proud of Mr. Cash because he has, a genius for organization and has made good along his line. We, therefore, take great pleasure in introducing the new fraternal organization formally to our readers and patrons. May you know them better and in turn may they know you better.
Why should men be valued according to accident of generation? This condition is certainly a lapse to barbarism deeper than any imagine. Men should not be condemned racially but individually.
The world shall learn that it is not the race but the spirit; not the constitution of blood or color of skin, but conduct that differentiates between men.—Rabbi Hirch.
The toad beneath the harrow knows precisely where each sharp tooth goes.—Old Proverb.
In Memoriam.
THE WOMAN WHO WAS THE LADY OF THE WORLD
Mrs. Ida D. Bailey died at Washington D. C., Feb. 8, 1908. Noble and brave hearted, race-loyal, true to principle, unselfesh, devoted race woman. None have yet come to fully fill her place in the struggle of colored Americans for freedom in the land of their birth—needed more now than ever as color line reaches Congress. The farewell message of Mrs. Bailey to Colored Americans:
"I leave this message for those who love me:"
Live for God.
Give your heart to Him and your life, if need be, for the emancipation of the Negro race in this land of his birth.
Eight race discrimination
Fight the "Jim Crow cars."
Lend a hand to Monroe Trotter; hold up his hands, for if you don't agree with all his methods, you know he is honest in this question. Hold up his hands.
God hates a coward; be brave men; be brave women.
I shall not rest in heaven, but look down from above, if I can, and continue my interest.
God bless my poor race, and lead them on through the this wilderness.
C. A. BURTON
Prominent Odd Fellow.
The congenial ex-District Grand Master of the Odd Fellows conferred the Patriarchal degree on ex-Grand Master John F. Davis of Silver Bow lodge, Helena, Montana. The service was very impressive.

Denver Needs A
Vigilance C
Vigilance Comi
Vigilance Committee.
A Call To Arms.
There is scarcely a community in the U. S. where a group of colored reside that ought to have its vigilance committee; some have them. Sometimes this committee is organized and has a name indicating its function. Sometimes it is organized for other purposes and becomes a vigilance committee on occasion. In other cases the committee has no regular organization or membership; it springs into being on occasion, but consists of approximately the same group of persons from year to year. The work of these vigilance committees is to protect the colored people in their several communities from aggression. The aggression takes form of hostile laws, ordinances, curtailment of civil rights, new racial discrimination, overtax or over severe enforcement of the law, curtailment of opportunities, etc. Sometimes this aggression is but the careless act of thoughtless folk and needs but a word in season to correct it. More often it is a part of that persistent underground campaign centering largely among white Americans of Southern birth, which is determine to so intrench the color caste in the U. S. as to make it impossible for any person of Negro blood to be more than a menial. Against both sorts of racial aggression organized effort is necessary. Many thoughtful colored people have sought to avoid this: to act independently and to refuse to meet organization by organization. This in most cases has been found impossible. The blows of racial and color prejudice fall alike on all, rich and poor, educated and ignorant and all must stand together and fight. The methods of these vigilance committees are various. The simplest action is the appointment of a committee of one or more to call on some official or person of influence; from this action extends to letters and the press, pamphlets, legislative hearings, mass meetings, petitions, etc. In a few cases threats and violence have been attempted, but these are at present exceptional. From this procedure on the part of tens of thousands of largely isolated groups much actual good has been done and much experience accumulated. The time is now evidently at hand to find and pool this nationwide experience and to systematize this scattered local effort into steady, persistent and unwavering pressure. As it is, unorganized local effort loses much time and energy in re-organizing for every new object; organized local efforts lack experience and knowledge of similar action elsewhere. Henceforth we must act together and we must fight continuously.
The object of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is to federate local committees among colored people in every community in the U. S.; to co-ordinate their activities, to exchange experiences and to concentrate the application of funds where the need is the greatest. May Crisis. In Denver such an important organization is greatly needed. Today along our public streets these signs are printed and impudently displayed with the greatest impunity, "We cater to white people only," at the Colonial theatre; "Colored trade not wanted," at the Paris theatre, a block apart on Curtis street; around the corner on 18th street below Champa street, "White Peoples' Restaurant;" in the next block above on Champa, "Nigger head bullets,' with a picture of a black face painted on a lump of coal. All this discrimination within a radius of two blocks along the throughfares of our city. What are we doing about it? What are we going to do about it? The answer is to form the above committee and do as directed as by Dr. DuBois and meet organization with organization. Then organize a local branch of that Crisis society here. We, in Colorado are in the greatest fight of our lives; we must fight to retain our civil rights, citizenship and political rights. Every day new aggressions are made against us and we must either fight together or fight apart. The Star says organize systemmatically with good substantial, cool-headed men of honor and integrity at the head. Eschew the politician, the truckler, the grafter and the notoriety-seeker. Organize for business and then do it. The Peoples' Sunday Alliance has a meeting at 2630 Welton street, Sept. 21. Let this meeting be a nucleus for the Vigilance Committee.
Interesting News Concerning the Race.
SOLDIERS MISTREATED IN THE PHILIPPINES
Members of 24th Infantry, Compelled to Labor Daily, Including Sunday--Work with Picks and Shovels in Mud and Water--White Soldiers Exempt from Hardships.
Special to The New York Age. It is asserted by soldiers of the 24th Regiment, U. S. Infantry, stationed at this point, that they are the victims of rank discrimination and injustice, in that they are relieved from soldier's regular duty and compelled to labor every day, including Sundays, with picks and shovels in the mud and water. It is also said that their tents are pitched in swamps where the water flows under the cots, and that the soldiers have to tie their shoes to the cot legs to keep them from washing away.
This regiment has been stationed here for three months and during that time have had to work night and day during some periods. The white soldiers are not required to do this work and some of them sit around and jeer and ridicule the Negro soldiers at work in the mud. There are 1,200 native prisoners at this station, and when the rain starts they are taken in. The native prisoners it is said, frequently ask the Negro soldiers if they are prisoners, and want to know why they have to work in the rain.
Conditions for the Negro soldier at this station are getting worse every day. The food is plentiful, but is half cooked, and hardly more than slops. The soldiers are faithful and willing and are trying to do their duty under these adverse circumstances, but they feel very keenly the humiliating discrimination from from which they are suffering.
Negro Girl's Big Tax.
A Negro girl ten years old will pay the largest income tax in Oklahoma. Sarah Rector, who lives just west of Muskogee, has an income of more than $112,000 a year.
It is the old story of the lucky allottee and the oil well Sarah is' the descendant of a Creed freedman. She had nothing to do with the selection of her allotment and probably has never seen it and does not know where it is. But it is 160 acres of land and upon it has been drilled the biggest producing well in the mid-continent field. This is what is known as the Jones Gusher, near the town of Cushing. The well is producing more than $2,500 a day, and Sarah gets one-eighth as her share.

Army, Navy and Post Office Service May Not Have Any More Negroes.
At a caucas of Democratic congressman, Friday night, to decide on the patronage policy, it was voted to dismiss all the Negro employees at the Capitol, and give their places to white men. This is to include the barbers and waiters, who are employed at the Capitol building and in the Senate and House Office building, as well as the messengers and laborers. From time immemorial the Negro barber and waiter have had undisputed monopoly of the barbering in the Senate and House barber shops, and of the waiting in the Senate and House cafes. These are, however, to be dismissed and white men put in their positions.
During the caucus one Southern Democratic congressman referring to places held Negroes which, in his opinion should be filled by whites, proclaimed that the niggers are all Republicans, and I never in my life saw a nigger Democrat. This statement is regarded here as a slam at the democracy of Bishop Walters and his coterie of alleged Negro Democrats who supported the election of President Wilson. In consequence of the Democratic caucus decision to make a clean sweep of Negroes employed by Congress there is consternation among the several hundred of them employed, many of whom have gray in the service. That it will work a hardship is known, but the Southern Democrat is in the saddle here, and he is rapidly recovering all he ought to preserve, and all the Northerners fought in the Civil War to take from him. It is but a question of a short time, it is believed, when this same Democratic anti-race policy will extend Negro Civil Service employes. Already one young colored woman has been dismissed from the Bureau of Printing and Engraving for refusing to accept and abide by the segregation rules, and three Negro male clerks in the Treasury Department were threatened with dismissal if they again used other than the jim-crow toilet rooms.

WIDELY KNOWN
BUSINESS MAN
Motto by Which A. 0. Smith
Has Won Success,
BELIEVES IN RAGE UPLIFT.
Many Sided Life of a Kentuckian Who
Worked His Way From Humble Sur-
roundings to Positions of Honor and
Responsibility—Public Schoo! Teach-
er, Tax Collector and Politician.
New Orleans, La.—Entering life Just
at the close of the war and using as his
guide Industry, honesty, thrift and re-
Mnbility, A. O. Smith has pushed his
way to the front and now ranks as one
of the foremost and best known men
of the race in this section of the coun-
try. He Is directly connected with
many enterprises for the development
and uplift of the race.
Mr. Smith was born in the hills of
Kentucky fifty years ago, his mother
being left a widow with seven children
to develop into manhood and woman-
hood, he being the youngest. As soon
as he was old enough he was placed in
school, where he made rapid progress
in his studies. Just how much time
was spent in school is not known.
Teaching school was to-him a high
position, yet he decided that he wanted
to be of more service to his people;
hence he found his way into Iowa and
soon became well known. He took
part in polities, believing that it was
the avenue through which to help bis
people. Step by step be advanced and
was recognized for his worth. During
the deadlock in the legislature of 1888
he was chief doorkeeper, and so well
did he discharge his duty that at the
close he was rewarded by the body
and holds today many testimontals
from the men who made up the legis:
lature.
In Des Moines, Ia., he was recog:
nized for service rendered and made
assistant tax collector, which was up

to that time the highest position ever
held by © member of the race in that
section of the country. It was a posl-
tion of honor and trust, which he filled
well, making many friends both in the
elty and out. His best recommenda.
tion was his ward, for when he told a
man a thing was going to be done it
could be relied upon, and this went
long toward making him a place in the
world. .
In 1804 he conceived the iden that he
could be of more service to his people
in another sgetion of the country where
he could perhaps better serve thelr
needs, hence he plunged right into the
south, going to-make good. He did not
come to idle away his time and, not
finding what he desired at the time, he
went into the railroad service as a por-
ter, which position he held for three
years, then Inter into the hotel bust-
ness, making a success of {t and at the
same time taking hold of everything
that meant the uplift of his race. He 1s
proprietor of the Chicago hotel in this
city.
Mr, Smith hns some very original
and practical ideas on how to conduct
large business enterprises which will
afford an opportunity: to the public to
sectire inore profitable eniployment, He
is working on plans now for several
lines of business which he hopes may
prove of value to the race in severn! of
the larger cities of the country when
put Into effect. He is widely known tn
the south and west and has many
friends among the foremost white men
in public and private life. In speaking
of his plans Mr. Smith sald:
“I consider that if the colored people
of the United States and the countries
séuth of us are to be anything they
must do something. ‘They must not ex:
pect to sit down and have others do for
them what they should do for them-
selves.
“We are turning out from our schools
and colleges every year thousands of
boys and girls, and if they are to have
something to do it {8 up to us to make
Places for them. With 10,000,000 peo-
ple all spending money, they can de
mand more recognition by uniting,
making places, and this will cause oth.
ers to seek them, and the stores that
now close their doors to negroes will
week them for the money they spend."

southwest end a writing room contain-
ing a large fireplace faced with pressed
brick. On the second floor there will
be found several rooms suitable for
Bible study classes and offices and a
good sized auditorium. ‘This floor plan
is so arranged that the auditorium and

formed of especially molded brick, with
bases and caps of brownstone. ‘The
second story contains French windows
with wrought fron balconies. The
building 1s conspicuous for the free use
of the flat or segmental arch.
Over the loggia entrance is a terra

Hall.” ‘The roof of the main building
is covered with first quality sea green
slates. The interior of the Y. M. GC. A

MOVEMENT TO
_ BENEFIT BOYS
How the “AF.” Cadel Corps
Idea Was Started.
FUTURE OUTLOOK BRIGHT.
latent tis itt ecksh at iota courte Nag Tee tee
regular Sunday School Lads to Re-
esive Attention—Views of the Father
‘ef the Scheme—How to Start a
Corps.
Nashville, Tenn.—One of the new
features brought forward at the re-
‘cent session of the Sunday school con-
‘gress held in Muskogee, Okla., was the
starting of the “A. BV" cadet corps
among loys who are hot regular at-
tendants of uny Sunday school. The
‘movement is already becoming quite
populur, und the directors of the con-
‘gress ure very much encouraged over
the future outlook for the movement.
Henry Allen Boyd, secretary of the
congress, says that the originator of
this feature got his inspiration from
the cuthusiasm displayed by small
boys ou the street, who often indulge
in playing soldier.
The father of the cadet corps idea Is
‘Dr. W. H. Crawford, superintendent
of the Second Baptist ehureh Sunday
schoo! in Austin, Tex., of which the
Rev. Dr. L« L. Campbell is pastor.
‘This school has the largest enroliment
of any in the congress. In speaking
of the work Dr. Crawford says:
“For years it bas been dawning
upon our minds that we were fast fac-
ing a crisis in our denominational life
when we would find ourselves without
‘strong men upon whose shoulders
would rest the respousibility of ex-
tending the Master's kingdom in the
World. We have noticed the scarcity
of men in our churches and the pre-
dicament of our cburchés in being
| hampered because of their Inability to
find proper material to man the va-
rious positions of trust.
| “We lave watched the various men’s
‘movements in this country, whose ef-
forts are bent largely on beading off
the impending. crisis. Both in church
and Sunday school the ratio of at-
tendance is easily five to one in favor
ot the female. Evidently there is a
cause producing this effect. and that
‘cause should be discovered and the
proper remedy applied. We are of the
opinion that we are not paying the
necessiry attention to the boy. and
hence the indifference of the man.”
| ‘The cadet movement. like all other
movements for good, is bent heaven-
ward, It seeks to create a wholesome
moral and congenial atmosphere
around the boy by inculcating in bim
many unique features which will
appeal to that Interest universal
among boys. The boy likes the spec-
taculaf, the aesthetical and the humor-
ous—that which enlivens and gratifies
bis notions and whims. He ts not
‘given to a great extent to the. consid-
eration of the serious side of life:
hence In order to win him we must
cate somewhat to bis peculiar traits,
but dm doing this so maneuver as to
fix within him at the same time those
baste principles upon which may rest
elementa of true manhood. This is
one of the things that is almed at in
| the organization of the “A. F." zadets.
| Another idea involved is to ever keep
in mind that the boy of today Is to be
the Man of tomorrow, and whatever
| the needs of this time or the needs of
the time to come as to disposition, hab-
its, Character, etc., should be molded
into the Ufe of the boy of today and
not walt until be becomes the man of
tomorrow, The cadet movement starts
in the Sunday school as a distinct de-
partment, subject to all rules and regu
lations of the school. This department
“its, character, ete., should be molded
one boys each, but all under the com-
mand of a captain. This division Is
made on the basis of size. Any boy
may become a member of the cadet de-
partment who will join and attend the
chan
~sage mercnant’s Timely Message or
Hope to Afro-Americans.
Mr, Julius Rosenwald, the noted mer-
chant and philanthropist of Chicago,
in @ recent address to the colored citi-
sens of bis home city, gave utterance
to the following sentiment which he
termed a message of hope.
Ile said: “Let me give you a mes-
size of hope, To quote the words of

The equality of rights before the law begets equality of opportunities. Equality of opportunities begets friends, confidence and security. Inequality of rights makes unequal conditions, which in turn begets injustice, discrimination and hatred. The logical end of hatred is murder. Race discriminations are the traditional methods of hatred of human beings. It's end is lynching, war and extermination. To say this thus bluntly and brutally is to invite strong denial. Race prejudice has often been professed by men of highest ideal and motive, who would shrink at violence o fany kind. But this is because such men are deliberately illogical, and their followers in the long run are not illogical, but carry their leader's doctrine to the bitter end. For instance, they are not entitled to the same privileges. But suppose they demand rights beyond their desert, then refuse them; they keep demanding, silence them by law; if legal means do not keep them in their place, mob law is justifiable. Thus the doctrine of race inferiority runs down to murder. Let us trace it in this country since the war. Negroes, being inferior, ought not to vote, said the reconstruction protesters. The nation, therefore, consented to their disfranchisement with the distinct understanding that all their other rights and privileges were to be preserved. But if a man is not fit to vote why educate him and make him discontented? Consequently education which was so successful that today there are 2,000,000 Negroes not even enrolled and practically half the Negro children in the land are not being decently trained in elementary schooling. True, but one will give them good industrial training, make them skilled workmen, so that they can nsave their money and buy property. No, answers the white workman, they will compete with me an dlower my wages. No, cries the home-owner, I don't want Negroes in my block. Very well, says the compromiser, segregate Negroes in a ghetto. But, answered the Negro, the Ghetto is in the worst part of the city, is unhealthy, ill-cared for, filled with prostitutes whom you segregate with us, and we can better our condition because we cannot vote. What then is the next step? Are we not harking right back to slavery? Is there any logical resting place on this downward path between a theory of inferiority and a theory of mob violence and extinction? No. The man who begins by saying, "This man is not entitled to equal rights with me," ends by either himself saying or letting others say, "Lynch the Nigger." What lies beyond if the nation, the state, the city will allow these attacks upon a struggling, persevering people to succeed? DUBOIS.

Fifty Years of Freedom Forecast Great Future.
POWER IN UNITED EFFORTS
Lessons From the Achievements of a Young Physician Who Has Gained Wide Distinction For Special Knowledge—Made Good as State Delegate to International Medical Congress.
Louisville, Ky.—With all the forces of organized professional and business life actively engaged in the various lines of work for the amelioration of conditions among the masses of Afro-Americans in the United States, greater things which make for manhood and citizenship may be expected of the race in the future.
Fifty years of effort, with many handicaps backed by true ambition, self reliance and unfaltering hope, have wrought wonders in the moral and intellectual condition of the colored race in America.
The success of Dr. Pinder M. Flack of this city is evidence of what one can do whose mind is full of hope and who believes in the great possibilities which lie in the distance for the man who knows how to overcome difficulties. This fifthth year of freedom should mean much to the race in moral stamina and encouragement. The story of Dr. P. M. Flack, which follows, is both interesting and inspiring: Dr. Pindar M. Flack, son of B. R. and Mary C. Flack, was born at Alexander, N. C., Nov. 15, 1878; attended the county schools from six to nine years of age, then took an academic course at Asheville, N. C. He entered Swift's Memorial college at fifteen years of age and finished the normal department at seventeen.
At nineteen he entered the medical department of Knoxville college and graduated therefrom at twenty-three. He immediately located in Louisville, Ky., and did a general practice of medicine for four years, during which he decided to specialize in surgery. In 1906 he gave up his practice temporarily and went to Chicago and took a special course in surgery and applied anatomy at the Illinois Medical college. now a department of Loyola university.
He returned to Louisville and began in a larger way the practice of surgery. Since that time he has been quite successful in his profession. He has filled the chair of surgery at the Louisville National Medical college for four consecutive years and has been officially connected with the Red Cross sanitarium for eight years.
In 1908 he was appointed by Acting Governor W. H. Cox as a delegate to help represent Kentucky at the international congress on tuberculosis, which convened in Washington. The sessions covered three weeks. He accepted and was one of the three colored delegates present among 5,000 from all quarters of the globe. He took an active part in helping to devise means for the work of that important body. While in the east he visited the following hospitals-for the care of sick colored people-viz: The Freedmen's at Washington, the Mercy and the Frederick Douglass* hospitals in Philadelphia. He studied their structure, their methods of sanitation and modus operandi generally so that he might carry back to his home city helpful hospital suggestions and to his collaborers improvements in surgical technique.
He is an indefatigable worker for the uplift of his people, being at present an active officer in his church, on the Y. M. C. A. board and president, of the Falls City Society of Physicians, Surgeons, Pharmacists and Dentists.
The five best players of the eleven, according to Mr. Henderson, are Captain Gray, Brice and Slaughter of Howard university and Scott and Warner of Hampton institute.
"To sin by silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and lust, the inquisition yet would serve the law, and guillotines decide our least disputes. The few who dare must speak and speak again, to right the wrongs of many."

Read Citizens, sign your name and address and mail to the editor of this paper.
PETITION
To the President of the United State
Hon. Woodrow Wilson,
White House, Washington, D. C.
Sir:]
This is to certify that we, the undersigned, are surprised and indignant that under your administration there should be any rules made by members of your cabinet to segregate employees of the national government by race or color. We protest against this as a plain insult, public degradation, and insufferable injury to Colored Americans, the establishment of caste in this free Republic. We petition you to reverse, prevent and forbid any such movement by your bureau chiefs, in accord with your promise of fair, friendly, just and Christian treatment of your Colored fellow-citizens.
This movement is being fostered by all the leading Colored Journals.

COUNSEL FOR ADVANCEMENT.
| Precepts Adopted by the Tuskegee Ne-
gro Conference,
‘The following declaratious of princi.
ples were adopted by the Tuskegee Ne-
gro farmers’ conference during its re-
zent session at.the ‘Tuskegee Institute
fn Alabama:
“At this twenty-second annual meet-
ing of the Tuskegee annual Negro con-
ference, fifty years after Abraham Lin-
soln set us free. we rejoice at the ev!-
dences we see around us of the pros:
ress of the people of our race,
“While we rejoice in the opportuni-
ties that have come to us with emancl-
pation, we recognize that complete
freedom can come to us only as we
gain the knowledge that will ft us to
use these opportunities.
“We therefore urge upon our people
everywhere, especitlly upon our texch-
ers and preachers, to see to it that the
masses of our people are giyen the
kind of education that will fit them to
be honest, industrious and law abiding
citizens.
“We advise all of our people throush
their local conferences, business
leagues or other organizations to urse
upon the proper authorities and alse
upon their own people the wisdom and
necessity of improving the school
houses, lengthening the school terms
and of securing teachers who are «ble
to fit the edueation in the schoolroom
to the needs of the community outside.
“We are gid to learn by the list
census that during the first fifty years
of our freedom something like 70 per
cent of our people have learned to read
and write. We urge especially upon
the farmers of our race to make use of
this knowledge. to read the: agricul
tural papers. make themselves a:
quainted with the best selentifie metl
ods of improving thelr lands, increas:
ing thelr stock and help to bring in an
era in the south when the farmer will
stop robbing the land and begin en
riching it
“In this connection we are glu! to
know that our farmers are makinz
progress, as Is shown by the presence
here today of a colored man who rals
ed 200 bushels of corn upon one acre
of land. thereby winning among 10.000
contestants the secoud prize offered by
the state of Alabama to the farmers
who raised the largest amount of corn
per acre.
“In conclusion we urge upon al! of
our people north and south to make
this fiftieth anniversary of our free:
dom the beginning of a more united
effort to the end that the progress of
the next fifty years may be even tore
rapid, more enduring and more wortliy,
of the respect of the world than that of
sho naetil
