The color of the Negroes is the result of the ultra-violet rays. The American Indian, according to Prof. Berthelot, derives his color from the red rays of the solar spectrum, while the color of the yellow races is the result of the yellow emanations. (4) BLACK BOYS IN BLUE The Mexican troubles have caused the transfer of certain colored regiments to the borders. A colored Pittsburg paper says: 'If the department would devote as much time to the defense of the Negro soldiers in time of peace as privilege of the colored boys to open was for their country.' "Time after time the Negroes of this country have petitioned the department for better treatment of the colored boys in uniform. We have called attention to the tendency at Washington to ignore the just complaints of the Negro soldier, but nothing seems to attract attention until the black boys are needed to open hostilities for Uncle Sam. "There is no doubting the fact that the Negro soldier is superior to any other man in the service. His record shows that beyond dispute; and there is no justification for discriminating against him in time of peace and making a here out of him in time of impending war. If he is a hero on the battlefield, let him have the treatment and consideration of a hero at all times. His bravery is worth as much in time of peace as in war. His loyalty cannot be questioned; Let him have the protection of the flag he defends." The Chicago Evening Post has this paragraph: ```markdown ``` "The Tenth Cavary, a Negro regiment is to be transferred from Fort Ethan Allen, in Vermont, to the Mexican border 'There is no color line in the service when the prospect of trouble appears,' remark the New York World. Which has an ironic pathos that is perfectly justifiable. Yet it is not only colored soldiers who are thought little of in peace and esteemed most highly in time of war.

Washington, Jan. 5—A thousand persons assembled in a local auditorium today and cheered Mrs. Bell Case La-Follette wife of Senator La-Follette of Wisconsin, during her address on "Race Segregation." "I see no reason why we eat food prepared by colored cooks, have them nurse our babies and live in intimate relation with them in this way and then object to them sitting beside us in the street cars and workrooms," said Mrs. LaFollette. Color Due To Solar Rays DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JAN. 10, 1914 Ministerial Union Elects Annual Officers. Never has Denver in all of her history of the different churches engaged in such a peaceful, harmoious and progressive meeting as it did when the Ministers of the city met and elected their Officers for this coming year. The personnel of the Union is as follows: Reverends A. M. Ward, D. E. Over, A. E. Reynolds, J. A. Thos. Hazell, R. L. Pope, P. J. Price, James Washington and S. L. Deas, representing the representing the various congregations of Baptists, Methodists and Presbyterians of the city, as well as attempting to solve the knotty problem of social welfare and moral progress. The community can well expect higher ideals in the Ministerial ranks, closer union with the different congregations and a more compact race solidarity than heretofore shown. As the congregation reflects the thoughts, ideas and feelings of the pastor, so the community reflects the thought, ideas and feelings of the Ministerial Union. There was not shown any bigotry, envy, personal aggrandizement nor the least denominational jealously, as the personnel of the officers will testify. Peace, harmony and prosperity were the slogan used by Rev. A. M. Ward, now Presiding Elder of the A. M. E. Church, who so graphically recalled the struggles, ambitions, hopes and reminenscences of the past efforts of the Union and encourage his fellow brethren by pointing out the great they could do in the future. The Union meets every Monday at 2:30 p. m., at the different churches, for a frank discussions of conditions and the welfare of the church and community. It is an inspiring body. Rev. James Washington, popular pastor of Campbell A. M. E. Church, unanimously elected President of Ministerial Union of Denver. Well liked, gentle, kind, hard working and aggressive. Has full support of brethern. The Star wishes him unlimited success. Rev. A. E. Reynolds, the silent, progressive pastor of Bethlehem Baptist Church charter member of the Union highly thought by his accociates for his good judgment and unrelenting persistency. Was elected Vice-President. Rev. P.J. Price, the impressive pastor of Central Rev. P.J. Price, the impressive pastor of Central Baptist Church; whose constructive work has been generally acknowledged by pulpit, press, as well as by pew. A mighty factor for good, always willing to help, and highly esteemed by all. Was elected Secretary. Rev. S. L. Deas, the latest pastor in Denver, who for his time has made wonderful progress with his church, Scott M. E. Church. While oet un acquainted, he enjoys the respect, good will and support of his brethern. Earnest, industrious and active worker. Also careful. Was elected Assistant Secretary of the Union. Bluff City Savings Bank, of Natchez, Miss., a colored enterprise, has been closed. The bank is not insolvent, but the failure of a white bank, in the same town caused a run upon the colored bank, and it was closed until the property in which the money was invested could be converted into cash. Colored contractors are doing a large part of the rebuilding of the section of Hot Springs, Ark., which was destroyed in the recent fire there A white contractor, who came from New Orleans with a few white workman, hierd colored men in addition. The white laborers complained and were told to work with the colored men or quit. Separating the Sheep. Human Brotherhood and Rights of Man Shown In the Testing Fire. Segregation and Its Bane Effects. The papers of the country are continuing to talk about segregation and yet as the Farmer, of Bridgeport, Conn., says concerning the action of the Connecticut Congregationalists: "The resolutions have attracted almost no attention. An incident of this kind goes to show how little the average person cares what is done to the Negro." The Evening Post contrasts the President's action in two celebrated cases: "Mr. Wilson's action in the Pankhurst case is in glaring contrast to his treatment of the Negro in the government service. It is one of the most difficult problems the President—any President has to handle, and it is intensified in Mr. Wilson's case by the fact that he is himself Southern born, that half of his Cabinet is Southern, and that Southerners dominate in Congress. It is all the more remarkable, therefore, that in handling it Mr. Wilson has been led into some, initial blunders not in seeing with his usual political instinct and sagacity, with the result that one of the conservative leaders of the race has recently declared that never before had he seen the colored people so-aroused and embittered." New England, and particularly Boston, has shown considerable feeling in the matter. The Boston Advertiser has had several long editorials. In one it says: "The excessive hurry of the Southern members of the Cabinet to demonstrate that 'the South is the saddle' at Washington, has seriously embarrassed the administration. Possibly as the result of the hasty orders of President Wilson, a few cases of outrageous segregation at Washington have been corrected, for the time being; but in most cases the matter has gone to far to be remedied, now, even if the administration were really anxious to restore the old order of things. The chief anxiety, now, seems to be not to create too great a public scandal, for the orders for the discharge of colored clerks still accumulate, wherever it appears that not much public excitement is likely to follow." In another it declares "that probably the only possible explanation" of President Wilson's attitude "if that of early environment, and the traditions of his youth. He is by birth a Southern, and it is plain enough that the race prejudice, which is an established and inviolable tradition in the South, was inherited by Woodrow Wilson, as a boy, to en extent which still tinges his views of men and things. In this respect, and to this ex- Human Brotherhood Shown In the Testation and Its Bane Effects. tent, he is as thoroughly imbued with race bigotry as Vardaman or Tillman. He believes it to be a shocking thing that a white man and a colored man should breathe the air of the same room. The 'Jim Crow' idea is, to him, the only sensible idea that a white man can take in his treatment of the Negro. He seems as rabidly prejudiced as any Southern brigadier to be found in Washington." The Boston Evening Record calls attention to the way in which this agitation is lining up the the Negroes' friends and enemies: "The agitation over the segregation of Negroes in the Federal departments at Washington is serving the purpose of testing, as it has not been tested in many years, the sentiment of white persons regarding Negroes, as a personal issue, not simply as a general principle of justice. The mass meeting to be held in Washington will further drive this test home. It is good to exalt the fine principles of brotherhood and the rights of man, and it will spice that exaltation with sincerity if men will set the personal example of fairness in treatment of Negroes everywhere —here in Boston as well as elsewhere." William . Borden, a young graduate of Princeton Theological Seminary, died in Cario a short time ago and left a bequest of $50,000 for mission work in Africa. Mr. Borden was a man of great wealth and had in the course of his life done much for missions. --- Grady Lane, a white man of Raleigh, N.

Residence, 2356 Humboldt St. The banquet given by the men to the ladies of the church was the most splendid affair of the kind ever seen in the city. Such gatherings as this under the auspices of the church mean much for the social welfare of the city. The church must not forget its obligation to society, any more than its obligation to the needs of the individual. The week of prayer, observed during last week, will result in great good for the work of the church. It was the launching of a three months campaign of soul-winning, which we hope to see culminate at Easter time in a great harvest of souls. The church is being prepared for the observance of city-wide prayer meeting, which will be held in all the churches on Wednesday evening, the 21st of the month. Every member and friend is requested to be present at that time. Sunday morning the pastor will preach from the subject, "The Trilumph of Faith." SHORTER CHAPEL'S NOTES. The pastor and Presiding Elder Ward preached to spledid audiences last Sabbath and the spirit of the Lord was present to impress. Mrs. Estella Wilson of Cincinnati, Ohio, was cordially admitted into Shorter's fellowship. Miss Jennie M. Hicks, our popular chorister, returned this week from Nashville, Tenn., where she spent the holidays most pleasantly. She will fill her place in the choir Sunday and will render one of her latest solos. The pastor will preach Sunday morning from the subject, "Our Neighbors," and Sunday evening he will deliver a special sermon to the young women; subject, "Lessons from Three Young Women of the Bible." Our winter revival will begin on Sunday, February 1st. Let the church begin at once to work and pray for a gracious visitation from the presence of the Lord. Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Stell, 119 23rd street, entertained the business meeting of the Allen Christian Endeavor League Monday evening and splendid reports were had from every committee. No department of Shorter is enjoying a more healthy growth than the League. The literature for the Home department of our Bible school was put into the hands of the class this week and this new supplement of the school has begun operations under most encouraging conditions. Every member of our congregation who cannot attend the regular school should enroll with this department now and get the benefit of the entire course for the quarter.

New York.-The annual meeting of the National Association For the Advancement of Colored People, held in the United Charities building Monday. Jan. 5, was attended by over 1,000 delegates from almost every section of the country. The fact that such a country wide protest has been going on against race segregation in the government service in Washington seemed to give vigor and greater firmness to the vast throng which attended every session. This association, which is the same that recently conducted an investigation on segregation in government departments in Washington, has been the most active advocate of the rights of our people and has perfected an organization which reaches important cities throughout the country, from the Atlantic to the Pacific coast. Its president is Moorfield Storey, a distinguished Boston lawyer, and among its directors are such well known people as Oswald Garrison Villard of New York, Miss Jane Addams, the social worker of Chicago; Charles Edward Russell, Miss Mary White Ovington of New York, Miss Lillian D. Wald, Dr. C. E. Bentley and Professor Joel E. Spingarn. The speakers at the annual meeting, which took up the question of segregation in all its phases, included Mrs. Belle C. La Follette, wife of Senator Robert M. La Follette; Dr. W. E. B. Du Bois of New York and Charles Edward Russell. Some new and significant phases of the fight against discrimination against colored people were brought out, and Mrs. La Follette's talk on the condition of our people in Washington was thrilling and of great interest. A full report of the past year's work and plans for the future will be published later. Interest in the Spingarn Prize. Much interest is being manifested in the offer made by Professor J. E. Spingarn in the spring of 1913 to give $100 to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, to be used for a gold medal to be awarded every year to the colored American who performs the finest deed during the preceding twelve months.

Persistent Worker For Advancement of the Masses. HONORED BY HIS ASSOCIATES Leading Physician of Mississippi, President of State Medical, Pharmaceutical and Dental Association and Member of the State Tuberculosis Commission. Meridian, Miss. — From an humble home in Macon, Miss., to becoming one of the leading physicians and surgeons in the state, with $75,000 worth of real estate, is the record of Dr. D. W. Sherrod of Mississippi, president of the Medical, Pharmaceutical and Dental association of the state. Dr. Sherrod was born March 10, 1869, in Macon and received his early school training there, graduating from the Macon high school. The fact that he had graduated from the high school and had been able to teach and was called "professor" was not sufficient. Teaching was a means to an end with him. He used the money received from teaching to take him through college. He had fully decided that he was going to be of some service to his country and to his race, and, believing that he should be thoroughly qualified, he continued his work in school. From the principalship of a large school he found his way to Fisk university and remained there until he graduated from the college department in 1896. While in Fisk university he made many friends among the teachers on account of his rare ability as a D. W. SHERBOD, M. D. student. Graduating from Fisk university, he returned to the schoolroom as an instructor for a short time only, because he had fully decided to study medicine. He entered Meharry Medical college with the determination to make good, and he was successful, for he stood in the front rank as a student, and so well was his work done in the classes that after his graduation he was appointed one of the instructors in Meharry, which position he held for three years and until he felt that he was ready to commence his career as a practicing physician. Returning to his native state, he established himself in his home city, Macon. He was fully prepared to go before the state board and passed a successful examination and was given special mention in the daily papers. Having become a full fledged physician it was fitting that he should return to the scenes of his early youth, to the town where he had attended public school, where he had played with the boys, the place where he had played marbles and ball, where he had enjoyed his boyhood pranks. He fitted up and opened a fine drug store, which was conducted with success. The people who had employed the white doctors sent for him. This created a little jealousy. He saw that it was growing, so he moved to Meridian. It did not take Dr. Sherrod long to get into the hearts of the people in Meridian. His reputation as a physician had preceded him. His drug store is well patronized and is conducted in first class style. He was appointed a member of the tuberculosis commission of the state, and the physicians, pharmacists and dentists of the state have recognized his worth by electing him for three successive years to the position of president. He is one of the worthy and substantial citizens of the state, being connected with everything that has for its object the elevation of his race. On the 20th of August, 1913, he was married to Miss Bessie Lena Williamson of Meridian, who is a graduate of Fisk university and who comes from one of the foremost families in the city. She is an accomplished and talented young woman. In addition to his property in Mississippi, Dr. Sherrod owns valuable property in New York city. Harvard Seniors Honor A. L. Jackson The senior class at Harvard university recently elected A. L. Jackson of Englewood, N. J., as class orator. Mr. Jackson is noted for his eloquence and is also prominent in athletics, being a crack member of the track team. He is the second colored man to receive such high honors by the vote of his classmates. R. C. Bruce of Washington was the first member of our race to be elected class orator at Harvard. BOLEY CITIZENS MAKE DENIAL Proposed African Movement In Great Disfavor. TRUTH ABOUT THE MATTER. Mayor Powell and Other Prominent Business Men Issue Signed Statement Warning Public Against "Chief" Alfred C. Sam, the Original Promoter of the So Called Gold Coast Scheme. Boley, Okla.—Mayor C. B. Powell, M. J. Jones, president of the Commercial club, and other prominent citizens of this town have signed and caused to be issued the following statement to the public in reference to one Alfred C. Sam. The document says: "We have had reports from various parts of the country stating that people have been advised that many of the best people of the town of Boley are following a movement to the Gold Coast of Africa. In order that those who are interested may know the truth we are issuing the following facts just as they are and for whatever they are worth to the public: "We regret in the first place that it becomes necessary to have to make a statement in which we are forced to defend ourselves from a false attack of one of the race. It would rather be expected that if we had enemies they would come from other sources. Yet we are frank to acknowledge that there is a man in this section who calls himself Chief Alfred C. Sam and who claims to be a native of the Ashanti tribe of the Gold Coast of Africa. "This man is working among our people here, seeking whom he may devour among a class of poor, aged, helpless and ignorant people who are, as a rule, the most wretched of all the people of our section of the state. The people who are following this man are a class who deserve rather to be helped than taken from. "This man Sam claims to be a divine healer of the sick, a prophet, etc. He also claims he is the chief of the Ashanti tribe of Africa and president of the Akim Trading company, which is to buy a ship and engage in trade in Africa and the United States. "He came to Boley a few months ago and represented that he was president of the Akim Trading company, then of New York, but since that time he has changed his place of incorporation to South Dakota. In the original company, one A. E. Smith of 81 East One Hundred and Twenty-sixth street, New York, was secretary, but Mr. Smith has refused to be responsible for the acts of the Akim Trading company or Chief Sam, and in the new company chartered in South Dakota this man Sam and his friends are the whole directory." "The sheriff of Okfuskee county has in his possession a letter from parties in Pennsylvania stating that three years ago this same man Sam came to that section selling shares at $5 per share and that he collected considerable money and left for parts unknown and that they had not heard from nor of him until one of the former victims saw in a newspaper that Chief Sam was playing his game in Clearview, Okla. "A representative of the British government has pronounced the scheme of this man Sam as a fake and has so stated in a letter to the governor of the state of Oklahoma, which was published in the daily papers, yet these people refuse to pay attention to the warning. These poor misguided people will not believe reports and continue to follow this man Sam blinoly and without a complaint. "The Fort Smith Record of date of Dec. 14 had a lengthy article stating in the main the facts we have stated above, but no one seems to care what Sam does to these helpless Negroes, since they will not listen to reason, and the better class of the people of the county, white and Negroes, believe it is well to get rid of a class of undesirable citizens. After the report came out that a ship was to sail from Galveston about the 15th of December, some of these people who are following Sam actually sold property which did not belong to them and property which they did not have. "They neglected their crops and followed the meetings of this man, and now they are homeless, out of money and camping out of doors in Weleetka, the headquarters of this movement, and the most of them are suffering and facing sickness and starvation, while Sam cares nothing about them or their welfare after he gets their money. "In all there have been about twenty persons from Boley who have sold out and are following the movement of Chief Sam. "C. B. Powell, mayor of Boley; W. L. Jones, postmaster; T. M. Haynes, Dr. J. L. Scott, B. Oliver and M. J. Jones, president Commercial club." Doctor Taylor Speaks to Hoboes. The new home of the Hoboes' association at No. 816 Callowhill street, Philadelphia, was opened recently with an address by Dr. C. A. A. P. Taylor, author of "The Conflict and Commingling of Races," who spoke on "The Under Man and the Irrepressible Conflict." The place will accommodate fifty migratory workers and was established by the Brotherhood Welfare association. It will be in charge of Will Quirke, secretary of the organization.

Resident of Salt Lake for 12 years, which time he spent in the study of music. A graduate of Salt Lake City Conservatory of Music. Spent two years studying and performing the art in Europe. Recent member of the All-Star Jubilee Quarterette of California, the musical attraction of the coast and adjacent states. Eminent accompanist and associate of the distinguished artists, Mesdames Hackley, Patti Brown and Black Patti Called by Redlands Review "the Black Paderewski." Pomona Progress styles him "America's most accomplished Negro concert pianist." San Jose Daily Mercury says: "Mr. Stewart at the piano was at his best and he astonished his hearers by his sylph-like touch as he played "The Last Hope." Santa Cruz Morning Sentinel says "As a singer and pianist Mr. Stewart can hold rank with our best performers." Marysville Appeal: "Sam Stewart, the baritone, pianist, soloist, received loud and long aplause at the conclusion of his selections." Prescott Herald (Ariz.): "Mr. Stewart, a musician and composer of music, a free, decided manner of touching the keys of the piano that is very entertaining. He plays the most difficult selections from the old masters with a grace and ease that is refreshing." The Austin Express: "He plays the most difficult selections from the old masters in a manner that is most pleasing." Madera Daily Tribune: "S. Stewart is an entertainer of unusual ability. Whilst he hasn't a double voice, he has a double talent, his voice and his fingers. His piano solos were a real treat." Inter-Mountain Republican, Salt Lake City, exalts this man: "He is a quiet, modest young man, still in his twenties, with a career before him, the beginning of and the prospects for the success of which no member of his race has ever had. Unlike the colored pianists of the past, Mr. Stewart is a musician possessing a technical knowledge of and understanding of the theory of music, combined with an adaptability to study and practice, which no other Negro musician has ever approximated. The technique is as near perfect as may be, his touch being as light as a feather and again as hard as steel. His interpretation is considered by those who have taken an interest in his work to be that of a master displaying the human emotions, the passions, the sorrows and the joys as easily and simply as a school girl at play. Mr. Stewart is without doubt the greatest living colored pianist." Citizens of Denver, this is the man the Hazell Chapter of the Westminster Guild will present to you Tues day night, 8:15 o'clock, January 27 1914. THE WATER QUESTION. At this time there seems to be a very acute controversy between the water company on the one hand and the Ublic Utilities Commission and the consumers on the other, as to real valuation of the water company's property and rights. Whether by cutting down the city's water taxes will be more of a benefit to Denver than lowering the present rates so that the direct benefit can come to consumers, or whether the public commission ought to do what the taxpayers of Denver have demanded of them, viz. to buy or construct a municipal plant, are the vexing questions. The water company is operating without any franchise and will not sell for eight million dollars. What does this matter to the Negro only as it touches his pocketbook? To have a municipal plant will give the consumers lower rates, it is promised, and the Negro, so far, has no representatives in the employ of the water company, so that from the racial interest in the company the Negro can't be easily harmed. However, as we have often said, we trust the water question can and will be ultimately compromised as to the water rights, physical valuation and all other questions now under discussion. The Denver Star collector will call at your door. Kindly receive him with a smile, pay him and wish him a long and prosperous year of most successful collections. Please co-operate with us in this matter. Tickets for the Bell-Brown contest can be secured at R. R. Walters' club on Curtis St., Elite Drug Store on 21st and Arapahoe Sts., and Keystone Cafe. --- The fifty-first anniversary of the emancipation was celebrated at the Shorter A. M. E. church Thursday evening, Jan. 1st. The program as arranged began promptly at 8:30 and was over a little before 10. As was to be expected from the known ability of the participants, the numbers on the program were rendered creditably the emancipation address deserving special mention. The Rev. Dr. David H. Fouse spoke in no uncertain words as to the importance of the occasion, not only to the Negro but to the nation and the world. He took the position that the emancipation was a great human event and therefore marked an epoch in national history and human advancement. His comment on slavery tended to show that the reaction of its brutalizing effect on the master class was as harmful as its direct action upon the enslaved. He paid a high tribute to the Negro who would turn away from the holiday festivities and lighter events to, mark the anniversary of so highly important historical event. His address dealt with principles underlying the occasion we celebrated, taking for granted that his hearers were intelligent on the main historical facts. His freedom of address and his clear cut, clean discussion of causes and effects were noted and favorably commented on by many of his hearers. The attendance was the only thing below par. This was due to several things, not the least of which was some mistake on the part of the management. But we propose to profit from mistakes and on the first of January, 1915, providence permitting, to have a bigger and better celebration than ever before. The People's Sunday Alliance, in behalf of the principle that prompts men to recognize and appreciate noble sacrifice, acknowledges a debt of gratitude to the Shorter A. M. E. church and its pastor for their contribution to the measure of success of the occasion. Their open door and active influence went a long way in making the evening enjoyable and profitable. The Alliance also thanks the other pastors who responded to the invitation and participated in the program, and likewise the members of the Azalia Hackley Choral club, who rendered service and their faithful and self sacrificing leader and all the other participants on the program. If you want a good laugh, attend Thursday night, Eureka Hall. Ladies especially cared for. Dance lasts till 1 a.m. Everybody come and have a good time. Program starts at 8, finishes about 10:30.

Kavanaugh In Discussing the Negro Problem Suggests Three Methods For Its Solution, Which He Believes Is Not Impossible to Accomplish. Chicago.-The speech of Judge Marcus A. Kavanaugh of the superior court in this city not long ago, in which he gave his views concerning the so called race problem, has attracted wide comment. It has been suggested by some of our people that the speech be printed in pamphlet form and distributed broadcast. That would be a wise thing to do, but for the benefit of the readers of this paper especially and the race generally the full text of Judge Kavanaugh's speech is here given. It was delivered before the Irish Fellowship club and is as follows: "Among the many grave problems pressing upon this people there is, it seems to me, one neglected question of crying importance: How much have we freed the Negro? The other day a semiprofessional concern advertised for a Negro girl cashier. There were sixty-four applications for that one position. The majority of the girls who applied had high school educations, because the Negro will make the most pititable sacrifices to give his children learning. These were neatly dressed, modest appearing and intelligent. The one who succeeded had made fifty-two other fruitless efforts to get a position. I do not like to let my mind follow the sixty-three unsuccessful young girls in the weary, heartbreaking search they are still pursuing, and yet it will be demanded of these young women that behind their dark, humiliated cheeks they keep white souls burning. To their infinite credit most of them will. This instance illustrates the attitude of the American public toward the Negro. Let a black man get work of equal rank among white brick masons, electricians, clerks, bookkeepers, and what happens? Every white employee will quit the job as though the place had been covered by a pestilence. There is not a great store in Chicago that dare put a Negro behind its counters, no matter The Rocky Mountain is high class. To those who never a game upon these tables would be and instructors at your service. how competent he may be. There is not a street railway that dares to put a Negro to work on one of its cars. The everyday story of a Negro hunting a house in which to live is filled with burning humiliation and injustice. And yet the Negro of pure African blood is rare; many of them are almost white—oppressed with white men's brains, cursed with white men's hearts, hopelessly consumed with white men's ideals and aspirations. 1 ask you this afternoon to put yourselves and your families in the place of an honest, respectable Negro, with his own wife and little children. To do that you will have to crush out all the strongest yearnings and highest longings of your hearts. Then see what a dismal place you have made of it. Think for a minute that your little children, no matter how wise they may become or how good they shall remain, must never hope for public esteem or general honor. What incentive remains behind your darkened lives? "When we complain of the Negro we should remember that one cannot measure the capabilities of a race by its lowest members, but by the attainments of its very highest. We have pushed the Negro out into freedom. Free to do what? To become a porter in a saloon or a waiter in a dining car. Which was better, the drugged contentment of the slave or the hopeless, endless humiliation and burning subjection of the freedman? If the Negro may not use his education it is a cruelty to educate him. If he may not use his freedom it was a crime to set him free. "Still he has progressed wonderfully. The general social and intellectual condition of the American Negro in the north today is vastly superior to that of the white inhabitant of any civilized country in the seventeenth century. Yet three generations ago he was a slave, a chattel, a thing. Not withstanding this, it was essential to slavery that the slave should feel himself physically and mentally a slave. Generation after generation this idea was ground into his soul. Let the general community today unite in its estimate as to any of us, and imperceptibly we will sink or rise to the limits of that estimate. If we brutalize a man we have no right to complain when he acts like a brute. To begin making a man respectable we must commence respecting him. To keep him honorable it is often necessary to honor him. "Do you realize that in spite of this handicap there are Negro homes in Chicago, and not a few of them, the equals in actual refinement to almost any white man's? Have you considered that there are working in this republic black men, and not a few, in the various professions that are the equals intellectually and in many cases the superiors of their competitors? One of the best lawyers in Chicago is a Negro, and a rich man bestows. The polite learning of the ages is familiar to him. He loves the best pictures and knows the finest music, but he may not take one meal in any decent restaurant. Suppose that man were to come in here today and sit at the table with us. Do you care to analyze your feelings toward him? And yet the bishop on his silken chair, the splendid old pone on his ancient throne is not nearer to God's great care and affections than this world exiled Negro. So embittered has this man grown against his country and even against his own race that there is no light left in the world for him. All this through no fault of his own, mind you, not because of anything he has done to us, but because of what God did to him. The only right way for you to judge a man is for you to put yourself in his place. But yourself in that man's place. The problem is not dying out. Every year it increases in intensity. "In 1700 there were less than 800,000 Negroes in this country; in 1860 more than 4,000,000; today every tenth person in this republic is a Negro, and his ratio of increase during the last decade was 11 per cent. They will tell you in the south they have settled the Negro problem. They have not yet begun to realize its awful importance to them. Terrorism never yet settled anything permanently. Only cold, that The Negro's hard justice can do this intelligence is growing in the south and hastening there to an awful moment when the two races shall stand fronting each other in open conflict—the one contemptuous, confident of being in the right and determined; the other race determined, desperate and revengeful. But that moment must never arrive. "It is absurd to blame the south for slavery. Slavery came to this country when it was recognized everywhere as proper and was salutary to both slave and master. It grew imperceptibly into an institution. Through an accident it became a necessity to the welfare of the cotton raiser. Before that the sentiment of the south was against it. In 1861, with one blow, the property and prosperity of the southern states were crushed. Put yourself in the southerner's place. His attitude today would be your attitude under like circumstances. It is our attitude in the north, only differing in degree, not in kind. But the time has come for big, brave men and women, north and south, to do something. I hold no brief for the Negro. I recognize his many faults. The traits inbred and inbred again through generations cannot be gotten out of the blood in a day. All I ask for him is justice—simple justice. Nobody is seeking for freedom of social intercourse with the Negro. But I believe that unreasoning prejudice should not prevent any woman or man in this country from filling any position he is able to fill—that every citizen may have freedom to freely use every gift with which God has endowed him. There is only one cure for this evil and that is the fine, eternal, heaven sent panacea for every social ill—pure, even handed justice. The solution of the problem is not impossible. Some one has said that, looking history through, evil is only good in the making. As Emerson says, 'Through the years and the centuries, through evil agents, through toys and atoms a great and beneficent tendency irresistibly streams.' "The south had the question settled once, and the north unsettled it. I think the highest minded, finest matured people in the world today live in this country below the Mason and Dixon line. I sometimes think that the oak of American manhood and the rose of American womanhood grow best there. Their point of view is a present almost the irresistible attitude of their history and situation. Still, it is terribly unjust and therefore temporary. "I propose three things: First, that we try to rid ourselves of unjust prejudices against the Negro; that heavy task accomplished, second, that we strive to influence our fellow citizens in the same direction, and, third, that we shall endeavor to obtain a national commission composed mostly of white men, north and south, to take evidence and devise remedies for this impossible situation."

Parks, the treasurer of Howard university, in presenting his annual report for the fiscal year of 1912-13 says among other things the fact that the current debt was replaced by a small working surplus does not indicate that the needs of the university were adequately met. The result was accomplished only by the utmost care on the part of the finance and executive committees in authorizing expenditure and of the president and secretary and business manager in administration. Sometimes it was impossible because of lack of funds to provide for very pressing needs. The treasurer says: Our experience emphasizes the importance of providing beforehand for each advance in expenditure. The increasing needs resulting from the growth of the attendance and the expansion of the departments and courses of study show the meagerness of our endowment even adequately to supplement the government appropriation. If the alumni and friends and the supporters of higher education throughout the nation would consider the facts concerning Howard university they would recognize the imperative need of providing an adequate endowment for an institution which has so signally demonstrated its importance by the result of its work. The foregoing shows a total expenditure for the year of $183,513.77. Of this the appropriation from the government was $92,000, or only about 50 per cent. It is a pleasure to acknowledge the progressive efficiency of my fellow workers in this office, including C. E. Lucas, assistant to the treasurer and head bookkeeper; C. B. Curley, cashier and bookkeeper, and Miss Alvesta P. Lancaster, clerk. Albert E. Park on Social Conditions. In his address before the American Sociological society and the American Economic association, which met in Minneapolis, Minn., Dec. 30, Albert E. Park, professor of sociology in the University of Chicago, gave it as his opinion that social conditions in the United States are tending to develop in the colored people a racial consciousness which will result in a Negro nationality having all things in common with other races.

To save a vast amount of correspondence, it is here stated that this paper does not publish resolutions of any nature, cards of thanks, lengthy obituaries nor notices of gatherings to which admission is charged, unless they are paid for. It seems impossible to bring the general public to a realization of the fact that a publisher is within his rights when he demands payment for the publication of matter that has no news value. The average individual or organization willingly pays the printer for "dodgers" or "posters" calling attention to an entertainment or a business, but he thinks a newspaper ought to advertise it free of charge. A society passes resolutions of condolence with instructions that a copy be sent to the family of the deceased and to certain papers. The subject matter is of interest only to a few individuals, but the newspaper is expected to give them wide publicity without charge. The bereaved family wishes to express its thanks to friends for services rendered. To save postage, a card is handed to the newspaper publisher with the request that it be inserted free of charge, of course. In time it may happen, as with The Advocate, that the paper discontinues publication. Then there is heard a chorus of "I told you so's", usually sung by those who, in addition to having availed themselves of its advertising space free of charge, are delinquent in their subscriptions. The Advocate has had sufficient experience of this kind to warrant the statement that it knows whereof it speaks; consequently, it will hereafter, without exceptions, publish only at the regular advertising rates communications of the nature referred to above.—The Advocate.
