DISMISS OR DEMOTE NEGRO FEDERAL ORDERS.
Washington, June 19.—The political headsman is working overtime for this administration in decapitating Afro-American employees. Last week they got busy in the Pension Office and as a result six clerks were dismissed outright and four demoted in the number of Afro American would be dismissed and motted, an apologist for administration sent our correspondence denial referring to this publication as a "yellow newspaper" 1st of July is not her some twenty clerks have
The order made a splendid appearance and guided by G. S. Contee and Dr. P. E. Sprattin, arrived at the church on time. Masons believing in punctuality. The ladies in their beautiful costumes made a splendid setting for the occasion and St. John the Baptist Day 1914 will long be remembered.
Tenth Cavalry Praised By War Secretary.
New York. June 19.—The graduation exercises of the United States Military Academy, West Point, took place Friday, June 12. One hundred and seven cadets made up the class, but according to the unwritten law since the days of Major Young and Lieutenant Flipper there were no Afro-Americans among them.
The address of the day was delivered by Lindley M Garrison, Secretary of War, who waid high tribute to the conduct of the army in the recent crisis. He referred particularly to the avoidance of trouble on the Mexican border, where for 1,200 miles the Tenth Cavalry and other United States troops were doing "a duty difficult to do well as any that can be given to men to do."
"Fierce passions were aroused on both sides of the line. There was need for constant watchfulness and calmness. A slight mistake—a small indiscretion—would have had momentous consequences. And yet no such thing happened.
When Sunday dawned so beautifully upon Denver and remained an ideal day through out, the different branches of the Masons and their auxiliaries, viz Queen of Sheba No. 8, Heroines of Jericho, Lone Star Chapter No. 15 and Evergreen Chapter No. 36 O. E. S. and Rocky Mountain Lodge No. 1 and Centennial Lodge No. 4 F. & A. M., began to pleasantly anticipate the coming successful day of celebration of St. John, the Baptist's Day and it was not until after Rev Jas, A. Washington, pastor of Campbell Chapel, himself a Mason of the highest and truest type delivered that grand, logical, instructive and eloquent discussion of the principles of the Order in the form of a sermon, that the climax of this joy was completed. Dr. J. H. P. Westbrook gave a very interesting paper such as he has always given and received hearty applause as an evidence of the audience's deep sense of appreciation. Every member of the Order went away elevated and inspired to do greater service for humanity, after hearing the Thanksgiving service. The Masons, in charge of Capt Geo. S. Contee, Marshall and Asst. Marshall Dr. P. E. Spratlin, proceeded from their hall to the church, making one of the longest and most dignified lines of marches ever experienced in Denver. Of Centennial Lodge No. 4, Dr. P. E. Spratlin, Dr. J. H. P. Westbrook and E. C. Tumlin were the representatives, while Geo. S. Contee, Carl Wilson and F. L. Guinn represented Rocky Mountain Lodge No. 1.
The annual celebration of St. John the Baptist's day was held Sunday June 21, at Campbell A. M. E. church. The music rendered by the choir and especially the duet by Miss Brown and Mr. Clark and the solo by Mr. McVey, were sweet to the ear and uplifting to the soul. The paper by Dr. J. H. P. Westbrook was characteristic of the the doctor in thought and diction and many were the compliments paid him for his illustrations of Darkness and Light.
The master effort of the afternoon was the sermon by Rev. Jas. Washington, Past Grand Master of the jurisdiction of Iowa and pastor of Campbell church. For a genuine Masonic sermon with Masonic thought; Rev. Washington was at his best and his remarks to the sisters of H. of J. and the O. E. S. were something unusual and gave that branch of the order food for thought; Rev. Washington is a speaker with power
"Across the border,' he said, 'antagonists in arms were constantly clashing in sight and shot distance of our men. Friends and supporters of the of the respective sides were constantly seeking to use our territory as a means of refitting or outfitting hostile expeditions.
"The discipline of character, the self-restraint of training and the intelligence of our men met every emergency and passed through every test with an unblemished record."
We printed last week how Prof. Murphy was discriminated on the German steamer "Koenign Louise" traveling on the Hamburg Line and Wednesday despatches show that the steamer ran into another and many lives were imperilled.

FEDERAL ORDERS.
Washington, June 19.—The political headsman is working overtime for this administration in decapitating Afro-American employes. Last week they got busy in the Pension Office and as a result six clerks were dismissed outright and four demoted in salary. Those dismissed were: Mrs. Odey, Messrs. Mays, Lott, Smith, Brown and Dodson, while those reduced in salary were Messrs. Arnold Lawson, Robinson and Wood. All these were experienced and efficient clerks, but they happened to be Afro-Americans Early this week other Afro-American clerks in the Pension Office were tremblingly anticipating either reduction or dismissal.
The dismissal and reduction of this number in the Pension Office, following so quickly the demotion and dismissal of an almost equal number in the Post Office Department week before last, has caused much unrest among government employes here. On July 2 it is predicted that a num-
Department, while some may be reduced. When it was predicted in these columns sometime ago that before the first of the fiscal year a num-
As I was reading the Denver Star I noticed your appeal to the people and the names of the different lodges which made donations. I am not one of you in your fraternal circle, but I am one of you in heart and soul. In regards to Mr. Robert Harris I feel just as you do. In this case there should not be one person who fails to help but should give as he or she can. I think and know that in this particular case every colored man or woman should go to the extreme, for I know it would be an honor to our race. Another race in a case like this would respond liberally and money would be no object, and I feel just the same in this case and more so, for we are a race to which every finger is pointed and every eye scans. I am proud to enclose five dollars. I would give more but I have just had a surgical operation which cost me $175, but I always have a little left for a cause of this kind.

Through your generous publication of the Appeal without my solicitation I was able to secure from your subscribers many large and appreciable donations, and I, therefore, must congratulate you upon such a responsive subscription list, as well as, to recognize the great advertising medium of the Star.

ber of Afro American clerks would be dismissed and demoted, an apologist for this administration sent out in his correspondence denials, and referring to this publication as a "yellow newspaper." The 1st of July is not here, yet some twenty clerks have been reduced and dismissed, and the end is not yet.
Further discrimination is reported in the Agricultural Department. It is reported a young Afro-American women, Miss Matilida Bradley, of Chicago, reported here a few days ago in response to appointment as clerk in that department, Bureau of Plant Industry, having been certified by the Civil Service Commission from the eligible list. When she arrived it was discovered she was an Afro-American. To discourage her it is alleged she was assigned to work requiring expert and technical knowledge for which she was not certified and not examined for. Then the following day, so it is reported, she was not assigned any work at all, and neither has she up to this writing, simply being allowed to sit the day through holding her hands—a sort of solitary confinement—to so discourage her as to force a resignation, perhaps.

On Thursday evening, June 16th, the Mite Society with Mrs. Mae E. Byrd, chairman of the executive committee and Mrs. P. F. Done, president, gave the public a most successful enter-
tainment, being the occasion of the ushers' contest and prize drill. So highdf d popular interest run, that more people were in attendance than could be comfortably provided for. Mr. J. A. Walden proved to be the popular usher and was awarded a handsome gold headed cape. Mr. J. P. Perkins was a close second, bearing off a beautiful stetson and Mr. Wm. Robinson came in third for the umbrella. On account of absentees, Central's team declined to enter the contest, but the Shorter girls gave an exhibition in the Flower and Tambourine drills which charmed and pleased the audience beyond description. The receipts from the contest were $142.05. The success of this entertainment is due in no small degree to the uniting efforts of Mrs. Mae E. Byrd who made large sacrifices in time energy and means.
The closing exercises of Shorten Chapel teacher-training class, were held Tuesday evening last, when eleven of our teachers received diplomas from the First Standard Teacher Training Course. The address by Dr. D. A. Graham of Colorado Springs was a very strong and profitable one and was listened to gladly. In presenting the certificates, Mrs. Jean F. Webb, commended the class for its high grade of efficiency attained in studies prescribed. At the close of the exercise, tokens of appreciation were given by the class, the pastor receiving a beautiful watch fob and Mrs. Mary E. Wade, the president, a souvenir spoon.

DEARFIELD NOTES.
Mr. Thomas Stewart a recent graduate of the Veterinary Department of the State Agricultural College at Ft. Collins is a prospective purchaser of State School lands adjoining Dearfield. Dearfield will afford him a good opportunity as Veterinary Surgeon. Dr. Lowry, president of the College, speaks of Mr. Stewart in the highest terms as a student and as an agreeable citizen. Mr. Stewart graduated with high honors and was cheered to the echo by his fellow students. Dearfield welcomes Mr. Stewart and he may rest assured of our hearty co-operation and assistance. Mrs. J. F. Bruce, who was visiting with her husband and daughter in Denver for the past ten days, returned to her ranch this week. Her daughter is employed in the Millinery Department at Joslin's Dry Goods Store and will entertain a party of Young people at her mother's ranch in Dearfield during her vacation.
Zachariah Hooper and his son, Bennie, were visitors of their ranch east of town this week. Mr. Ben Hooper controls 320 acres of very choice land. He will begin his residence this fall. The Union Pacific R. R. Co. is building a regular station at Masters, Colo., Dearfield's nearest station. The Dearfield settlers petitioned for the station and asked for a colored agent. Get behind it and push, Denver citizens. Mrs. Estella Maddox, proprietress of Hotel Pricilla and the Grocery Store, made a business trip to Denver this week to attend to important business, pertaining to her ranch and purchasing new supplies for her store and hotel.
Mrs. O. T. Jackson, has loaned her piano to the Church. The services are quite city-like and very interesting. Many of the farmers are attending church services. Rev. J. A. Ramsey is a very able Christian Minister and his heart is in his work and is interested in our success.
Mr. Thomas Dillon, deputy secretary of State has donated the 1908 Colorado Statutes to the library at the Union Presbyterian Church of Dearfield. The farmers can go and post themselves on existing municipal loans. A copy also can be found of the State School Laws as it will not be long before a School will have to be established and it is well to post yourselves upon the State Laws concerning them.
Rev. Harrison, son of Mrs. Harrison, 701 Tennyson St., Denver, Colo., arrived in Dearfield from the south to build a house and make improvements for his mother to establish her home on her ranch, adjoining Mrs. Harvey Page and her two son-in-laws, J. N. B. Anderson and J. M. Williams. Mrs. B. J. Goodall entertained at dinner last Sunday, on her ranch, Mrs. O. T. Jackson, Mrs. Harvey Page and J. N. B. Anderson. A splendid country dinner was served. Fried chicken, home grown vegetables, strawberries, ice cream and cake, and yum, etc. Mrs. Goodall is a charming entertainer and her ranch is one of the best improved-in Dearfield.

FRANK JENKINS VICTOR IN BIG CHAMPIONSHIP MEET
Far Rockaway (N. Y.) Boy Swiftest Runner in Athletic League.
By two record breaking performances at the annual high school track and field championship meet on the public school athletic field in Brooklyn the second week in June. Frank Jenkins of Far Rockaway, N. Y., added new hurdles to his already brilliant record. Jenkins started off very calm in the mid-run, but suddenly took on speed which made him the winner by fifteen yards. He covered the distance in 4 minutes 35.45 seconds, elipting the old record of 4 minutes 40.3-10 seconds established by Young of Manual Training High school in 1907.
Following this splendid piece of running, the negro had come back in the half mile and in an exhibition of grit and pluck fairly hurried over the finish line, his last ounce of strength spent, in 2 minutes 31.5 seconds, obliterating the mark set by Abel Kriatn the Irish American A. C. runner, when he competed for Curtis High in 1000 making it home in 2 minutes 4.45 seconds.
Jenkins was the only colored boy running in the meet.
The Race Is Going Ahead in Alabama
According to a recent report in the
New York Times the colored farmers
own or control 5,100,000 acres of land
in the state of Alabama alone, or 350,
000 acres than they controlled in
1900 The colored farmers of that
state have under their control 3,563,
000 acres of improved land, and at
present they are farming 500,000 more
acres of improved land than they were
cultivating in 1900. In ten years the
number of Negro farmers increased
17.3 per cent, and now they own or
control one-fourth of all the farm
property in Alabama, having an aggregate
value of $17,370,000.
That's the time to have some ideal pleasure with a nice morning thought for Fourth of July. Just attend the popular .Cypressa Social Club's first annual picnic, July 3rd, at Bloemfield Park. Admission $1c. Watts and plum reg contest.
At the social of Columbine Temple No. 11, S. M. T., last Monday night at 2630 Welton street, a gang of boys. slipped up the back steps and stole fruit and cake and a glass containing $3.00 in nickles and dimes. The boys were traced and becoming frightened returned the money. Mothers take heed.
Mr. Ernest R. McKinney, for the past nine month in charge of the work of the Colored Y. M. C. A., has tendered his resignation to the Committee of Management to take effect July 1st, 1914. Mr. McKinney's plans for the future will involve the doing of Boy's work exclusively.
The Association outlook is now brightening up and the Management feel that the Department will be properly housed in the near future as an option has been taken on the Pinn property at 2800 Glenarm Pl. It is planned to have this building ready for occupancy lp September and in charge of a Secretary. Read The Star.

Strong Fight Against Racism
The fight against race prejudice by fair-minded individuals, organizations and by some government officials continues. At Albany, N. Y., on June 9 Attorney General Carmody made it known that steps would be taken through the district attorney's office to enforce the law forbidding discrimination on account of race, color or creed by proprietors of hotels, restaurants and others who maintain summer resorts. The law forbids the placing of advertisements or the publication of notices by the keepers of such places for public accommodation, to the effect that patronage will be refused any one on account of race, color or creed.

For the first time in the nation’s his:
tory a state department bas undertak-
en an exhaustive study of the indus
trial conditiuu of the Nerves within
its borders, uxing a member of the rice
who is an expert to do the work. The
bureau of industrial statistics uf the
state of Pennsylvania through Its chief,
Hon, J. L. Rockey, is the pioneer in
this matter. and it is hoped that bis ex-
ample will be followed in other states,
Dr. B. R. Wright, Jr., of Philadelphia
Ia the sociological expert who « uduct-
ed the investigation, which covered a
year and has taken up 195 pages of
type matter. ‘The report is entitled “A
Study of the Industrial Conditions of
the Negro Population of Pennsylvania,
and Especially of the Cities of Phila-
delphia and Pittsburgh.”
We learn in this study that the great
majority of Negro workers in the state
are immigrants from soutbern states,
chiefly Virginia. Maryland and North
Carolina. Statistical tables are given
which show that a larger percentage of
Negroes work in the state than whites,
that four times as large a percentage
of colored women are at work than
whites. While most of them are in uz
akilled labor, a great number have ev-
tered mew trades and professions that
were unknown to the race « half cen-
tury ago.
In 1912 there were ia\ Philadelphia Of-
ty-nipe practicing physicians, six phar
macists, tweaty-coe Geatists and in
Pittabargh tweaty-eight physicians,
seven dentists and eleven pharmacists.
‘These professional men represented
nearly every large inetitution in the
country.

‘There were also eighty-five colored
teachers tn the pablie echoole of Phils.

of teachers ranged from $30 per month
to $2,100 per annem. There were 1,108
businesses in Philadelphia and 355 tn

rants, 73 in the carpet. clagning busi.
mess, 71 grocers, 49 expressmen. 36
taltore, 36 cigar dealers, 34 employment
agencies and 30 hair culturists. The
study tells that 380 of these businesses
have $202,480 capital invested.
Business concerns among our people
pay as good wages for the same work
ae whites, There are 335 euch firms,
which employ 901 persons, paying »
total wage'of from $3 per week to $150.
‘and 322 firms paid each week $1.-
986.30 per week to Negro employees.
Says the author. “On this basis it is
estimated that the Negro Orms of these
two:¢ities pay in wages, chiefly to en-
ployees of their race. about $30,000
per week.”
Remarkable Achievements ef Women.
‘The women of the race are no longer

LIGHTHOUSE OF
BAPTIST CHURCH
Rev. Or. Moses Is a Shining
Star of His Denomination.
AUTHOR, ORATOR AND SAGE
His Hand, Praised by Literary
Critica.
Knoxville, Tenn.—The Virginia Theo-
logical Seminary and College, located
at Lynchburg, the pride of the Baptists
of Virginia, bas ‘furnished to the state
and country some of the strongest men
and women of the race, and they are
being heard from in all parts of the
country. Rev. Dr. William H. Moses.
pastor of the Mount Zion Baptist
church, Knoxville, 1s one of the bright-
est stars.
Dr. Moses is regarded as one of the
leading pulpit orators and speakers of
the race and has recently taken his
place among the leading Negro authors,
his latest book being “The Life of Our
Lord.” which 1s considered one of the
finest of its kind that bas ever been
written by any one. It ts told in an
interesting and instructive manner and
put so plainly that the smallest child
may understand and get an insight
Into the life of Jesus Christ. :
Dr. Moses comes from a family of
ministers. He is the senior of three
Baptist ministers, 8. A. Moses, pastor
of the High Street Baptist church. Dan-
ville, Va., and J. M. Moses, pastor of
Monumental Baptist church, Philadet-
phia. .
The young pulpit orator and theo-
Jogian was born in Charlotte county.
Va., Dec. 31. 1872 He was reared
largely by his grandfather, Richard
Morton. and being his favorite boy was
allowed the free use of his extensive
library. Mr. Morton was one of the
largest landowners in that section of
the country.
Tt is to the farm that Dr. Moses ts
indebted for his early work and prac
tical training, for at the age of four-
teen years he was performing a dif-
cult task of plowing with two horses.
‘and at the age of fifteen was able to
‘chop as much wood and haul as many
rails and cut as much grain ss the
average man in his prime Jt was
while thus engaged that he was cou-
verted and joined the Morrison Grove
Baptist church, Charlotte Court House,
Va. All this time he had not lost sight
of his studies, but kept at them all the
time.
It Is of interest to know that at the
age of. seventeen he was made over-
seer of the entire plantation of his
grandfather, and {t was in this posi-
tion that he earned money enough to
enter college. He had advanced suf-
ficiently to enter the Virginia Theologt
cal Seminary and College to. prepare
for his life's work. At the age of twenty
years he entered the schooh and: by
the timely assistance of President
Gregory W. Hayes, to whom he attri-
butes much of bis success, remainet
in school until he was graduated.
carrying off class honora. He Is today
considered the ripest scholar and abiest
graduate the school has turned out.
He imbibed the spirit of President
Hayes. x
During his school life he made «2
good record, and his ability was recox:
nizel by the Mount Zien Raptixt
cbureh, Staunton. Va., one of the hirz-
est churches in the state, which callek
him to the pastorate before he bad
completed his course at school. Dur
ing the ten years he remained In Stunn-
ton he erected for that aristocratic
congreeution a church costing $30,000
and a fine parsonage.
After much persuasion he was tn-
duced to accept # call from the Metro
-politan Baptist chureh of Pittsburgh.
He remained only a short time, be
cause he accepted the position of feld
secretary for the foreign mission board
of the National Baptist convention.
with Dr. L. G. Jordan. As a mission
worker Dr. Moses is said to have ex-
celled any other man In his denomina-
tion, and the amount of money he col-
lected for missions was larger by far
than the combined collections of ai)
misaionariea in the district employed
for the sane length of time.
Anide from his pastoral work und
missionary efforts Dr. Moses hus occu:
pled, among other high positions, the
office of corresponding secretary of the
Virginia Baptist convention. editor of
the: Baptist Statesman, trustee of the
Virginia seminary and collece. of Mor-

GET WISE. AN EYE OPEN TO THE
FUTURE.
In case the Union Pacific R. R. Co.
wants to put in a Colored Agent, who
can be @ telegraph operator and un-
derstand what that responsibility
means, what NeBro can hold down
the job. Get yourselves -ready, for
you know not the hour when these
opportunities may come to you. We
are likewise urging Negroes to take
the Teacher’s examination which will
be held in the various: counties in
order that when @ school will be es-
tablished in Dearfleld, the Negro will
be prepared to push his demands.
Don’t wait, but write or call up the
State Superintendent of Public” In-
struction and tind out from the data
she will gladly furnish you. We are
also urging that the men. farmers
and citizens of Dearfield, begin to
look into the laws of Municipal organ-
ization, the various officers duties,
ete. You must remember all that,
pioneer work falls now and rests
heavily upon your shoulders. What
are you going to do about it? Can
you or will you meet {t like men?
More attention should be paid by
mothers who have young daughters,
who go, or say they go to church, pic-
ture shows, etc. There is a sad neg:
lect being made by some mothers. A
hint to the wise is sufficient. The
Star is certainly chagrined by the
young element of Negro boys who are
loud and_boisterous at Five Points.
We recommend that the Juvenile De-
partment be notified. Ice Cream, mon-
ey and other valuables have been and
are being stolen by them. A hood-
lum {s a hoodlus and a theif is a thelf,
black or white, young or old, and they
have safe places for both kind. Let
us ‘help enforce the law by punishing
the guilty, no matter whose son it is.

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

NOTICES TO BE PAID FOR.
Owing to the increased cost of publication, it becomes necessary to make a nominal charge of 50c, payable in advance, for all Cards of Thanks, notices of condolence and Resolutions. The price of room rent, ads and other liners that are run on a monthly rate of 50c must be paid in advance as we are unable to carry them at so small a rate and pay a collector's commission. No items of this nature accepted without a cash payment.
LAST OPPORTUNITY TO BUY
Lots and tracts in Dearfield at prices
dated from Feb. 4th to May 4th, 1914.
Those who subscribed for lots and
were listed will have until June 1st,
1914, to take their lots at prices agreed
upon. After that time all lots and
tracts will be placed on the advanced
list. Now that the hotel, postoffice
and grocery store are completed and
the church established, it is quite natural that the prices would advance and continue to advance as improvements are made in the town.

The Candidacy of the Hon. H. C. Smith. The announcement that the Hon. Harry C. Smith of Cleveland, O., will be a candidate on the Republican ticket for the state legislature this fall has not only created great interest among the colored voters in Cuyaboga county, but the race throughout the state is interested in Mr. Smith's candidacy. The Ohio civil rights bill and the state antilynching law were each drawn up by the Hon. Mr. Smith and passed by his efforts while he was a member of the state legislature for two terms a few years ago. The Afro-American vote in the state is large, and Mr. Smith is well and favorably known to the white voters of the state. His chances for being nominated and elected should therefore be very good.
