HARRIS (Continued on Page 6) DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, FEB. 14, 1914 Deal Fairly For Denver's Good Name The enemies of the Denver Union Water company are leading the people into the wilderness, and keeping them there, in this water fight. And, withal, they claim to be your friends, and our friends. In short, they are loud in their protestations of love for the people. But they fail, most woefully, to tell us where we are going to be benefitted by wiping out a great system, which has for years supplied Denver with an abundance of water—conceded by all honest and fair minded persons to be the best and purest water supplied to any city in this country. They side-step the question when we ask them, "How much will a new water plant cost—the total cost?" and "What will be the result as to increased taxes upon the property holders—to say nothing of the cost to individuals for making connections with a new system?" But they shout loud and lustily, "Let us get even with the Water company for the extortions and impositions of the past!" That's mighty poor economy and yet, they tell us that they love us and love our city, and want to give us something nice and fine at a less cost than we are getting it now. The Star has already given its readers the other side of the question. It now presents the Retail side. To a man up a tree interested personally in neither side of the controversy except to play square and secure for Denver as a whole—and ourselves particularly—a progressive policy in providing water for domestic use for ourselves and our neighbors—and we include the whole of Denver's citizenry in the classification "neighbors"—the picture presents itself of a group of politicians—in the guise of friends—seeking to wreak personal revenge, and making us pay the freight. Here in Denver we have developed—in spite of ourselves—inasmuch as we have come to believe in the policy of municipal ownership of water for domestic consumption. We want to own water plant. Why risk the chance of utter and absolute failure in the construction of an entirely new plant, when one admittedly unexcelled anywhere in the United States, can be purchased at a fair, arbitrated price? The main point is to reach a basis of fair trading, and when that becomes known, give the Water company a price for its plant commensurate with its real worth, take it over, and operate it to the benefit of all. The Retail Plan seems to be the most reasonable and quickest method of settling this water problem. We believe that any colored voter who will cast aside any possible feeling that might be held against the Water company and will study the Retail Plan for Immediate Municipal Ownership carefully will have no doubt in his or her mind about the wisdom of casting a ballot for the Retail Plan at Tuesday's election. You Can Trust These Men The RETAIL ASSOCIATION Fought the Gas Company on the pressure question, and its members are fighting the Phone company on rates. They are independent. They are heavy taxpayers and water consumers. They are out of politics. They comprise two hundred of the best merchants in Denver. Can't you trust their judgment on a business question? That's what this water problem is after all. Will You Mr. Negro Taxpayer and Voter Trust These Men, or The Denver Post and Its Allies? Now Fellqw Taxpayers—WHICH:— THIS? THE RETAIL PLAN. Immediate Municipal Ownership of Present Plant at an arbitrated price, but not over $14,400,000 An Immediate rate cut of ten per cent and a prospective rate cut of 25 per cent under city ownership. No new taxes besides redeeming Denver's credit and self respect. THIS? LAN. Immediate arbitrated price, rate cut of ten per cent under city ning Denver's cre THE RETAIL PLAN.

No Race Restriction In Property Deeds. Los Angeles, Cal.—Race restriction clauses in property deeds were declared illegal by Judge John W. Shenk in handing down a decision against the Berlin Realty Co. Sometime ago Benjamin Jones and Mrs. Fannie Guatier contracted for a choice parcel of ground through the mails. Their letters contained checks to cover the first payments on the lots. In accepting the first payments, the company sent back contracts which contained the following restriction: "The said property shall not be sold to or be occupied by any person not of the white or Caucasian race." When the company heard that the would-be purchasers were colored, their checks were returned and negotiations brought to a close. Mrs. Gautier and Jones at once instituted legal proceedings to compel the transfer of the lots, Attorney Chas. S. Darden who represented the plaintiffs, declared that the restriction was a violation of the provisions of the 14th Amendment to the Federal Constitution and contrary to the public policy of the State of California. Judge Shenk coincided with his views. The principal stockholders in the Berlin Realty Company are Jews: Nashville, Tenn.—Henry A Boyd, Secretary of the National Negro Press Association is making plans to have the Executive Committee meet here Feb. 13 and 14. Editors and newspapers from all over the country will attend. The following declaration reached the Associated Press on Monday morning, as an address to the country: "Civilization makes every man his brother's keeper (protector,) but no man his brother's owner. "Whenever the accident of race, nationality, position, power, color or other physical condition enables one individual, race or nation to ignore or usurp the inalienable rights of another individual, race or nation, the equilibrium of civilization is distrubed and the progress of humanity interrupted. "Justice can only come to man when man is just. Liberty is for all or for none. "The fate of America and the Negro are inextricably bound together. The Negro has nowhere else to go. "We call upon our people to use all their powers to meet the ideals of civilization and the obligations of American citizenship. "Race cannot be substituted for fitness as a qualification for citizenship if the land is to remain 'bright with freedom's holy light." "We believe not only in the separation of church and state but that a man's inalienable right to earn his bread should not be confused with the privilege of his neighbor's table. Men may be patriotic fellow citizens without personal fellowship. "Finally, we ask for our people only a square deal, a man's chance to meet civilization's demands of manhood."

VOTE FAVORABLY ON RETAIL PLAN AND GET RESULTS VOTE FAVORABLY ON RETAIL PLAN AND GET RESULTS Purchase of Water Company's Plant Gives Immediate Municipal Ownership At a Fair Cost. Without knowing within several millions of dollars of how much the construction of a new water plant by the city would cost, but upon the broad assertion that it "will not cost over $,000,000," property owners in Denver are asked to start out on an enterprise of building a new water plant and take chances that the supporters of the new plant plan are good guessers. This is the most absurd of the many unreasonable, and at times, ridiculous proposals made to the voters of Denver by the "follow us" crowd that was gotten together from among the discontented primarily to back up a few who have set their hearts on revenging themselves, if life lasts, upon people against whom they have a deep-seated personal hatred for many years. And the pity of it is that this few, who have been more or less powerful in the past, are able to still exercise their magic upon a certain element, and lead them away from a sane consideration of the truth of the water situation, by continuing to pleach destruction and ruin. Denver demands and must have municipal ownership. We must have this in the quickest possible time and at the least cost. To buy the plant of the Denver Union Water company at its real value is greatly to be preferred than to enter upon the indefinite and uncertain plan of constructing a new plant. The Retail Merchants' proposition seems fair to all sides and with the added offer of the Water company of reduced rates pending purchase. Denver voters should have no hesitancy in deciding that they will cast their ballots for the Retailers' plan, and end this wa- **TEF A L MAY KNOW AND NONE MUNDERSTAND."** Shall we acquire immediate municipal ownership of the water supply system, as proposed by the retail plan, or shall we take a leap in the dark, not knowing beforehand just where we are going to land, either in expenditure of money, time, litigation, business depression and graft, by defeating the safest, quickest, cheapest, fairest and best way out of the situation? It is sometimes better to bear those ills we have than to fly to others we know not of, and it is always good judgment and excellent common ordinary business sense to stick to a certainty ($14,400,000) and shun all uncertainties. As a business man, we believe other business men are just as fair, honest, sincere and trustworthy as we are. Hence we must be lieve in the Retailers' Association and their men, their purposes and their work. Let no Negro be used to fight an honest plan on account of some personal hate, prejudice or feeling of any of the opposition. In this case, as we earnestly said last May, and as earnestly and sincerely do we say now that we favor the purchase of the water company's plant. As a fair business man whose capital is invested in Denver, what other position could the Star honestly and fairly take? Our main objection presented was the doubt of a 20-year franchise, which doubt has been completely removed from our minds by the Election Commission permitting the contract to be filed and attached to the franchise, which modifies the franchise. This action removes all doubt, suspicion and hesitation from the mind of the Star and is sufficient to remove such from any fair-minded person's mind. We unreservedly endorse the retail plan as the best, fairest and quickest way to settle the question, because you can't vote on the franchise without voting on the contract. "COME, LET US REASON GETHER." This water question is not a question of party politics, but one of importance to all citizens, irrespective of color, creed or kind, and should be dealt with accordingly. That the taxpayers and voters must do something to quiet and forever settle this agitation, both for and against the water company, so that Denver may grow and prosper, goes without saying. So much talk may have left your minds in some doubt as to just what is the NAMPA 2962 reet, Denver, Colorado $2.00 1.00 50 in rate, all subscriptions must be paid tion.

One has but to look at other cities with their cheap plants and they will find that the ultimate cost is and was more than $14,400,000, and the end is not yet. The local water commissioners have spent tens of thousands of dollars in searching for a new water supply for Denver. Now among the opposing people, a lot of willing speculators are trying to thrust their promotions upon Denver water users and taxpayers through its water commissioners. Water in plenty is assured as far away as 200 miles, some of it on the western slope, over the Continental divide. All reasonable and sane men realize the impracticability of carrying water so great a distance, even if the water were there—which it is not. We believe the retail plan is the best and for the sake of harmony and good will toward all, let us cast our ballot for it and end the needless litigation of condemnation proceedings, etc., and other freak notions now prevalent in our city. Let the Star warn all colored voters and taxpayers that eventually $14,400,000 will be paid out in lawyer fees, engineers' reports, etc., and yet the question won't be decided. So let everybody support the plan with their influence and votes. END THE WATER FIGHT IN THE RIGHT WAY. Any effort to becloud the issue in the water question should be resented in the minds of the voters. The muck-raking being done is a discredit to all connected with such program. What Denver wants—and needs most of all—is a fair and just settlement of the water controversy. A calm and dispassionate view of the proposition of the Retail Plan is what the voters should attempt to arrive at before casting their ballots on February 17. It is inconceivable that a group of Denver's most substantial citizens—merchants whose all is centered here in an effort to acquire reputation and standing as business men—would enter into a conspiracy to rob the people through support of a plan to give the city prompt municipal ownership of its water plant. After all the principal thing to be attained is to give Denver Municipal Ownership. The building of an entirely new plant cannot be other than a gamble from the start, and it assumes the aspect of a desperate plunge into the region of the unknown when one considers the fact that water is a scarce article in and around Denver just at this time. The failure of many of the big irrigation enterprises to develop into effective working concerns through their inability to supply sufficient water is evidence of the scarcity of that essential. The Denver Union Water company has been able to supply a sufficiency of pure, wholesome water to the city for many years, and unquestionably this company will fight through all the courts any attempt to take from them their claimed ownership of the water which they are providing for the city. Rather than risk endless controversy, which will throw the city into turmoil, over this water, and the enormous expense and waste of time in building an entirely new plant, let us buy the company's plant at a reasonable figure, fix it up where fixing is needed, permit the people of Denver to go on undistrust di ntheir pursuit of happiness and end forever this seemingly interminable warfare between people whose only purpose seems to be the venting of emmity grounded in years of personal hatred. The Retail Plan for early municipal ownership at a fair purchase price and includes a 10 per cent. reduction in rates while the final details of taking over the plant are being decided. GIVE DENVER CHANCE TO GROW Denver is a city of homes and home owners—that is one of the finest things about this city. It has fewer great mansions and more comfortable dwellings than most cities of its size. And there will be many more homes built in Denver if the city is given a chance to grow and prosper. There is plenty of room for them—that is another reason for pride and gratitude. The interests of the home owner and the home maker should be paramount. It is of utmost importance that our homes be protected and afforded every possible advantage. That is why The Star urges so strongly IMMEDIATE MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP of the water company's plant. It does not want to see the homes of Denver subjected to another six or twelve or twenty years of present conditions. It does not want to see the homes of Denver exposed to the peril of a typhoid epidemic. Undertakers are necessary, but The Denver Star does not want to see their business boosted while other trades languish. It does not want to see the home owners taxed and retaxed time and time again for the foolish and needless building of a new water plant. The Star wants the homes of Denver to get the benefit of an IMMEDIATE TEN PER CENT. REDUCTION IN RATES and speedy further reduction when the plant passes into the city's ownership. The Star wants to see the homes of Denver secure from the risk of epidemic disease. The Star wants to see the people who live in the homes of Denver prospering as the city prosperps, with a controverted issue settled once for all and our beautiful climate attracting thousands of tourists, and our reputation for square dealing bringing capital for investment in our industries. The Star wants to see the "to rent" signs coming down out of the windows of houses and stores and hundreds of new homes going up on our vacant lots. That is why the RETAIL ASSOCIATION LAN for IMMEDIATE MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP should appeal to you for support. The fight is for the welfare and health and prosperity of the homes of Denver, and if the home folks of this city will be true to their own best interests we will win the fight. [Name] GEO. D.

GREAT LEADER AND ORGANIZER Useful Life of Rev. Dr. John Simpson Jackson. ZEALOUS WORKER FOR ZION Friends of the General Financial Secretary of the A. M. E. Zion Denomination Expect to See Him Advanced to Higher Official Rank—Member of Important Secret Fraternities. Birmingham, Ala. — The Rev. John Simpson Jackson of this city, the general financial secretary for the A. M. E. Zion church, is a native of Forkland, Green county, Ala. He is forty-eight years of age and has been actively engaged in many important movements for racial advancement for a number of years. He received his early education in the primary schools of his home town, after which he entered Lincoln Normal university at Marion, Ala., from which he graduated in 1884. After returning home he taught school for ten consecutive years. Very early in life the quality of leadership was discovered in him. Therefore P. JOHN SIMPSON JACKSON. his career in the educational and political life of his state stands out conspicuously. He was at one time a member of the Republican executive board of his state. He was nominated twice by the Green county convention for representative to the state legislature. He was elected delegate to the Republican national convention held in Minneapolis, Minn., when Benjamin Harrison was nominated for president of the United States. But his career in the religious world has made him a prominent figure of his race. Converted in early youth, he joined Birdine A. M. E. Zion church and became an active and influential member, holding from time to time every office in the church to which a layman is eligible. Since being licensed to preach his rise in the church has been rapid, and he has filled the positions of pastor in Alabama, presiding elder in Mississippi, member of four general conferences and general financial secretary of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion denomination, which office he still holds. Unprecedented in Methodism at the general conference in 1912, held in Charlotte, N. C., was the manner in which Dr. Jackson held that august body three days in deadlock without losing a vote. As a preacher Mr. Jackson is able and impressive, a noted church builder and financier with but few peers. In 1908, as treasurer of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows of the state of Alabama and financial secretary of the A. M. E. Zion church, he was under bond for $40,000, making him perhaps one of the most heavily bonded colored men in the country. He is also a thirty-second degree Mason, a member of the Knights of Pythias and of the United Brothers of Friendship. Dr. Jackson has been married twice, first to Miss Louise Pearson, a member of one of the wealthiest families in the western part of Alabama. Six children were born to them, three of whom, Gertrude, Geneva and Robert, are now living. After the death of his first wife Dr. Jackson married Miss Pauline A. Huggar, a prominent schoolteacher, club and church worker of Mobile, Ala., Feb. 5, 1908. His real estate ownings are valuable in Alabama, New Jersey and Maryland. He owns a beautiful and spacious residence in Philadelphia, where he resided from May, 1908, to October, 1912. Since that time, through his efforts, the financial department of the denomination has been removed to Birmingham, Ala. Dr. Jackson is a director and one of the largest share owners of the Alabama Penny Savings bank, Birmingham, which is the largest bank in the United States operated solely by Afro-Americans. As a leader and organizer his influence for good has been felt in every position with which the denomination has honored him. His friends expect, to see him rise still higher in official rank in the church to which he has given the best efforts of his life.

Lord Decies discarded the curtained screen and had the musiciansing at his side in the dining room at 1436 Cherokee street.

VIRGINIA'S CHARTER NOT LAW FULLY REVOKED. Supreme Court Issues Restraining Order—Action of Supreme Lodge at Baltimore Set Aside. Washington, D. C., Jan. 31, 1914. The Supreme court, District of Columbia, on Friday, January 30, 1914, refused to grant the plea of the Supreme Lodge that the suit of the Grand Lodge, K. of P. of Virginia, be dismissed with costs on the plaintiff, and decided that the action of the Supreme Lodge, Knights of Pythias, N. A. S. A., E. A. A. and A. in session at Baltimore, Maryland, August 26-30, 1913, in revoking the charter of the Grand Lodge, Knights of Pythias of Virginia and ordering the dissolution, was unconstitutional and unlawful. It issued a sweeping injunction restraining the Supreme Lodge, the Supreme Chancellor or their agents anywhere in the United States from interfering with the Grand Lodge, Knights of Pythias, on account of any such alleged revocation of the charter. It forbids the issuance or circulation of any proclamation or letters by the Supreme Chancellor or his agents based upon the alleged revocation of the charter and dissolution of the Grand Lodge, Knights of Pythias of Virginia. Mr. Justice Gould announced that the question of the constitutionality of the tax levy by the Supreme Lodge upon the members of the several grand jurisdictions would be finally decided by the court. This will result in a complete review of the case by competent authority and the constitutionality of the enactment of the new constitution at Baltimore, Md., will also be settled. John Mitchell, Jr., Grand Chancellor of the Grand Lodge, K. of P. of Virginia; Thomas M. Crump, G. K. of R. and S., and R. C. Mitchell were present during the deliberations. The Grand Lodge was represented by Hon. Clarence R. Wilson, Paul E. Lesch, Esq., and James F. Minor, Esq., the latter making the argument, and the Supreme Lodge by Mr.' James A. Cobb and Henry E. Davis, Esq., the latter making the argu-ent. The following is a copy of the injunction granted the Grand Lodge, Knights of Pythias, of Virginia, at Washington, D. C., Friday, January 30, 1914. The decree was entered Monday, February 2, 1914. In the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia. Holding an Equity Court. Grand Lodge of Knights of Pythias North America. Save America.

A Franchise is any permit to a private concern to use public streets or any common property. The right to hang a banner across a street or build a passageway above an alley is technically a franchise. The Retail plan to settle the water dispute---while technically a very limited franchise---is; an effect merely giving the Water Co. a temporary right to continue using City streets and alleys until we can agree upon a reasonable price for the city to pay for its plant. The City may exercise the option and buy and take over the plant within the first year or at the end of any six months period thereafter. This was never intended to be a long term grant. The plan provides that both sides shall have an equal voice in fixing the price. The Retail Plan Means the first actual step toward Immediate Municipal Ownership not another 20-year franchise. The very meat of the Retail plan is City ownership. The permit is only temporary and can be ended just as soon as the City feels sure the price is right and is ready to take over the property. And in the meantime every user of water gets a 10 per cent. reduction in rates.

The report of the agents of the Public Charities association of Philadelphia on existing conditions at the Eaglesville Industrial School For Colored Children at Norristown, Pa., recently made public shows that the institution is sadly in need of proper management. The report says, among other things, that about half the windows in the building are without panes, that the walls are dirty, that the rooms are frequently cold and that one of the children stated that on occasions they slept behind the furnace in the cellar. As to the bedding, the report says that no sheets were found and that the pillowcases were filthy. As to the care of the children, the investigators reported that apparently they received none. In reference to meals, it is said that the children dine twice a day—breakfast, consisting primarily of mush, and the afternoon meal, consisting of vegetables. The investigators say they were told by Anderson a colored man employed about the place) that occasionally be "threw in some dough with the food, as it made the beans go further." The children are ragged in the extreme, and several of them are without shoes and stockings. Anderson states that about half of the children are without sufficient clothes and that practically none of them has any extra supply. The place is fithy, ramshackle and must be absolutely demoralizing to the twenty-six children that are at present quartered there. In several of the rooms the floors are littered with dirt. There are no rugs. The investigators appended to this report an extract from the forty-second annual report of the state board of charities, which they say is remarkable in view of the conditions at the place at the present time. This extract points out that the condition of the beds and blankets is due to lack of funds and not to neglect or carelessness. "The institution is doing a good work," the extract says. The investigators also append to their report what they declare a remarkable recommendation of the state board of charities that the institution should receive an appropriation. 1 THE "PORO" SYSTEM of Scalp and Hair treatment is based on the latest scientific and sanitary methods, effecting a healthy scalp thus promoting a growth of beautiful hair. The "Poro" preparations used in connection with the treatment are made and sold exclusively by myself, having the exclusive right to that name; and I alone, know the secret of the composition that bears that name. Our claim has always been that when the hair begins to grow as the result of the use of "PORO," it will continue to do so if only the scalp and hair be kept clean. This sanitary method of treatment is also having the desired effect in helping to prevent the spread of diseases, for it is a fact that hair in an unsanitary condition carries the germs of disease which often prove fatal to innocent persons coming in contact with them.

The Denver society circle was given a real treat in the form of a dancing party Wednesday evening, Feb. 4, such as social Denver seldom, if ever, witnessed before. A more beautiful, entertaining and elaborate affair could not have been conceived nor planned and executed, so perfect and unique in all of its particulars and variations, than was given by the "University Three," popular young men of the University club. It was a sight of beauty and grandeur to see our young social buds in evening gowns and courteously attended by our young men uniformly dressed, and all the more is the picture embellished when time, music, enjoyment and personages completely harmonize and form one full symmetrical measure of pleasure. The hall was beautifully decorated and the illumination of red, white and green lights cast a most brilliant hue which dazzled upon the lovely gowns of the ladies. At 9:30 sharp the grand march began and at the close of which the very attractive program souvenirs, furnished by the Denver Star, were given to each guest. The programs bore the monogram "U. C. B." enveloped in gold and gilded in green wreaths. A few moments were spent in colloquial visitations and securing dances, after which the heavenly strains of Morrison's orchestra were heard from behind the curtained screen, and the many happy couples gilded over the smoothly waxed floor to the tunes of "Where _id You Get That Girl" and "We Are Having Some More Time." The merry dancers were kept refreshed with assorted cakes and delicious ices of cherry and orange. This social ecstasy was beyond the expectation of the most sanguine. This social dancing party lasted four hours and the people had such a good and enjoyable time that they forgot that time was passing and were loth to depart for home, even when the strains of the ever popular orchestra played the old and familiar selection, "Home, Sweet Home." "P. A." HORRIBLE BLOTCHES OF ECZEMA Quickly cured by Dr. Hobson's Eczema Ointment. C. P. Caldwell, of New Orleans, La., states: "Mr. doctor advised me to try 'Dr. Hobson's Eczema Salve.'
