Denver Star

The Denver Star ESTABLISHED 1888 TWENTY-SIXTH YEAR Number 45 The Everlasting Negro. Progressing Slowly But Steadily, Claim The Attention of Nation. St. Louis Advance, editorially in pertinent remarks observes: The temptation is irresistible to comment in the most drastic manner occasionally upon outrages and denunciations inflicted upon the Negro. Recently Louisville, Ky. has passed a segregation law duly signed by the Mayor and vigorously enforced by the police. But one of the main sources of trouble and inoperativeness of the segregation law in cities of the Louisville class is the home intimacy and menial connection existing between the white and the black residents of such town. The Negro as a house-servant necessarily does not only live in the same block but occupies the same house as the high-toned, non-come-at-able superior Anglo-Saxon for whom the Negro works. It is not infrequently the case where the same room and the occupancy. It is contended that residential and personal contact by proximity of homes etc., between the races contaminates the white man and depreciates property. No thought of this occurs when a Negro is sitting side by side with the daughter or wife of the white employer and driving through the boulevards of of the city. It is allowed that in the capacity of a menial he can live in the same block or the the house with the white man, whether the majority of the block or house are white or not, but in the capacity of a man, owning his own property and working for himself, he is utterly objectionable, he is an abomination. Freedom with its priceless blessings, manliness and culture all go for naught when they are labeled with a black skin. The black face is as tantalizing to some of our white fellow-citizens as the red rag to the bull, and it would be well for the white man to check the growth and spread of this color-irritation because at some time, unwittingly, it may lead some of them, like the rag leads the bull, to their own perdition. The colored people of Baltimore are making a manly and winning fight against segregation. They have beaten it twice and the colored people of Louisville could do the same thing if they fight in an unyielding and vigorous manner. "It is provoking" observes the New York Independent, "that whatever we want to do the Negro should be everlastly putting himself in the way "We do not possess our ideas, but are possessed by them; they master us and march us into the arena, where like gladiators, we must fight for them." Salon. J. K. Vardaman of the vitriolic strain in his new Tillmanic role in the Senate attempted to show his ignorance by attacking the Negro again this week in the Senate. It seems that the temptation to slur the almost friendless and defendless Negro in the August Senate is almost irresistible by some of the wise Southern Gentlemen, whose inflated intelligence is due to Negro labor and physical endurance. Here are their arguments; They begin along this wise; a northern paper defended discrimination. "A Negro is good enough to associate with a Negro. If not, why not? Why is not a 'Jim Crow' car good enough for a Negro to ride in, if it is just as good as the cars used by white people? Why is not a colored church good enough for a colored congregation? Why is not a colored school good enough for colored children? To say that they are not, is to join Governor Vardaman in declaring that Negroes are an inferior and criminal people." The Crisis observing answers the argument and logically deduces:—That a red headed man is good enough to associate with red headed men; that all persons with bald heads should ride in special cars; that all Irishman should bef orced to go to an Irish school, cripples debarred from Grace church—Why'not? Because the color of neither hair nor skin, no merely physical peculiarity and no merely racial difference, is sufficient to be made a basis of far reaching and positive discrimination and segregation in a democratic government; it is silly and dehumanizing; if Negro or Scotch or Welch people wish to unite in their own churches or schools, that is their business; but to force them to do so is unchristian and uncivilized. If separation on the basis of ignorance throws more Italians in one group than in another, that is a matter of learning, not of blood, and can be cured by schools. But for a sane, decent American here in the 20th Century to encourage in his paper (or in halls of Congress) with a defense of caste and discrimination based on nothing more than race and color shows the moral plane on which a certain class of American are living and attempting to influence and drag others. Under the caption "They are at it again, the ```markdown ``` DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JULY 11, 1914 Louisville Protests. Louisville, July 5. This afternoon in Quinn Chapel over 1,500 colored people attended a mass meeting arranged by the Louisville Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People to protest against the segregation ordinance recently past in this city. Dr. J. E. Spingarn, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the National Association, spoke in part as follows: "We believe that the segregation of property according to race distinctions offends both against economic expediency because the artificial restrictions it sets up will entail ultimate economic burdens out of all proportion to the apparent, and only apparent, depreciation that is at this moment the ground for legal segregation. It offends against political morality because it places a struggling race, emerging from slavery and economic dependence, in a permanent position of disadvantage in respect to other races which already holds the most advantageous positions. It is mere sophistry to say to bother us. In the most unexpected ways and places, he bobs up, stumbles in where he is not wanted and set agley the wisest plans of statesmen. One has to look out for him always. If some new scheme of public reform is proposed, the first thought is "chercheque Negre." Independent reviews the most recent intrusion of the Negro question in tee Senate, where it defeated the bill for the popular election of Senators (and the Woman Suffrage Amendment) and concludes; "The sole question why the Negro is so everlastly poking himself in front of every national discussion is because a dominant white oligarchy is trying to hold him unjustly in subjection in certain states. In other states, where the Negro is politically just like the white man he does not bother us. It is simply because certain states shut out the Negro that the Negro jumps up and says he does not want to be shut out in voting for Senators. If we cannot secure from Congress the privilege to elect Senators by popular vote, it is the Southern Negro, not the Northern Negro, that stands in the way. An injustice is always a nuisance; it always is ready to block reform. More than half the states want the right to elect Senators by popular vote, (and as many are in favor of woman suffrage) but others refuse to allow it unless the privilege is given to shut out the Negro vote. That is the block. That is the everlasting Negro." "Be it true or false, what is said about men often has as much influence upon their lives, and especially upon their destinies, as what we do. that there is no real discrimination because white men may not move into black neighborhoods just as black men may not move into white neighborhoods. Imagine the justice of a law which denied the right of poor men to borrow from rich men, and then, to make the matter wholly equitable, denied the right of rich men to borrow from poor ones! We white men hold all the coigns of vantage, and this legislation is merely an effort to prevent others from ever disputing our right to hold them. The result of such an arrangement can be only one to develop a permanently inferior civilization in our midst, which must serve forever as a corrupting force in the movement of the larger civilization of which it must continue to remain a part. A Prominent Attorney Visits the City. Attorney W. E. Henderson of Indianapolis, Ind., the Vice President and General Counsel of the Sea Bird Gold Mining and Milling Co., presided at the special meeting of the board of Directors recently held at the Oxford Hotel. The company has two colored men on the board in the persons of Mr. Archie Greathouse and Atty. Henderson. The rest of the company are white men who have one and one half thousand majority of stock. Oklahoma and Texas men are among the wealthy stockholders. The full board of directors were present and Atty. Henderson presided at all meetings. The report of the property showed an expenditure of $11,000 last year on the mine and the board decided to drift sinking a shaft 200 feet lower 200 feet lower before erecting a mill. The mine is located in "Golden Gilpin" County and has assays made outside of Denver, running $15 to $18 per ton. Experts declare this mine to be the best producer in the State. At each and every meeting held in the hotel, no prejudice was shown by anybody and first-class accommodations were given the attorney, whose opinions, advice and counsel were taken and followed to the letter. Atty. Henderson is a quiet, unassuming, positive man of character and doubtless his visit in this state will have a satisfactory impression upon some of the Coloradoans. He left July 4th for Colorado Springs. TO THE PUBLIC. Owing to the sunstroke of my husband, Allen Gullion, who now wanders around aimlessly and cannot find his way home ot 1220 So.

Gullion BAPTIST SUNDAY SCHOOLS HOLD LARGE CONVENTION New England Body Guests of the Messiah School, Bridgeport, Conn. Bridgeport, Conn.—The twenty-first annual meeting of the New England Baptist Sunday school and Baptist Young People's convention was held in this town at the Messiah Baptist church Tuesday and Wednesday, June 16 and 17. Immediately after the devotional services Tuesday morning the convention was called to order by the president, N. Barnett Dodson, who read the rules of order and appointed the various committees. Addresses of welcome were delivered by Miss Isabel Carter and Fred A. Stevens of the Messiah Sunday school. The response to these addresses in behalf of the convention was made by Mrs. Mary S. Tribbitt of the Cherry Memorial Sunday school of Philadelphia. After vocal and instrumental music the audience gave a liberal contribution in aid of the work and the convention was adjourned with prayer until 2 o'clock. The afternoon session was opened with the usual praise service which was led by Massachusetts delegates. The committees on enrollment of delegates and new schools made their reports which showed an increase over last year. The treasurer's report was also encouraging because of the large cash balance in hand and in bank after paying all expenses. The topic for open discussion was "The Mission of the Baptist Young People's Union." The discussion was led by a delegate from the Bethany Baptist Young People's union of Newark, N. J. An immense audience was present at the evening session, which was begun with devotional services led by delegates from New Jersey and Pennsylvania. The music for this session was rendered by the Messiah Sunday school and a quartet from the R. Y. P. U. of the Concord Baptist church in Brooklyn. The annual address by the president covered most every phase of Sunday school work and was a feature of the evening session. The general topic for discussion was "Christianity—How It Should Be Applied." This topic was opened by Mr. Rufus M. Meroney, a graduate of Yale and the secretary of the Carlton avenue branch of the Y. M. C. A. in Brooklyn. About fifteen delegates took part in the discussion. Wednesday morning, June 15, after the praise service, which was led by delegates from New York and Washington, an open parliament on Sunday school problems, which included the several departments of the graded Sunday schools, was held. The rest of the session was devoted to hearing reports from the various schools, standing committees and new business. When it came to the election of officers the rules were suspended, and N. Barnett Dodson of Brooklyn was re-elected president by acclamation. The other officers were elected by the adoption of the report of the nominating committee and are: First vice president, R. M. Dudley of Rhode Island; second vice president, F. A. Stevens of Bridgeport. Conn.; recording secretary, Mrs. Leta Beaman of New York city; corresponding secretary, Miss W. D.

The executive committee meeting of the Jeanes fund board was held in the rooms of the general education board in New York recently, with the following named members present: Dr. Booker T. Washington, chairman of the executive committee; Dr. James H. Dillard, president of the fund; Major R. R. Moton, secretary; Dr. S. C Mitchell, Richmond Medical college, Richmond, Va.; Hon. J. C. Napler, former register of the United States treasury, Nashville, Tenn. E. J. Scott, secretary of the Tuskegee institute, was on motion asked to sit with the board during its deliberations. The board controls a fund of $1,000, 000, the interest upon which, some $40, 000, is spent in the south each year among the rural schools for colored people. The report of the year's work was most interesting. *Ampton Alumni Association to Meet.* The twelfth triennial meeting of the Hampton Institute Alumni association will be held at the school in Hampton, Va., beginning Wednesday, July 15.

TUSKEGEE BOARD MEETS. Trustees of Noted School Encouraged. Dr. Washington's Report. New York City.-The annual meeting of the Tuskegee (Ala.) institute board of trustees was held at the rooms of the general education board of the Rockefeller foundation, in this city, the last week, in June. Among the members present were the Hon. Seth Low, New York city, chairman; Mr. Julius Rosenwald, Chicago; Mr. William C. Willecox, New York city; Mr. Charles E. Mason, Boston; Mr. C. W. Hare, Tuskegee, Ala.; Mr. William Jay Schieffelin, New York city; Mr. V. H. Tulane, Montgomery, Ala.; Mr. William M. Scott, Philadelphia; Dr. Booker T. Washington, principal; Mr. Warren Logan, treasurer, and Mr. Emmet J. Scott, secretary, Tuskegee institute, Ala. There were present also at the meeting Mr. Charles H. Gibson, chief accountant, and Mr. R. R. Taylor, director of mechanical industries, Tuskegee institute. Major R. R. Moton of the Hampton institute, Dr. James H. Dillard of the Jeanne fund board and Hon. J. C. Napier, former register of the United States treasury, were invited to sit with the board during its proceedings. The most important section of the board was the election of three new trustees, Mr. George McAney, president of the board of aldermen, New York city, succeeding the late Robert C. Ogden; Mr. Edward A. Bancroft, chief counsel of the International Harvester company, Chicago, Ill., succeeding the late Dr. John C. Grant of Chicago, and Dr. Alexander Mann, rector of Trinity church. Boston. The institute's budget for the year 1914-15, calling for an appropriation approximating $290,000 was approved. The effectiveness of the institute's work in the south in rural school building and its leadership in urging its students to develop farming colonies were matters of special mention. The report of Dr. Booker T. Washington, the principal of the institute, was listened to with particular interest, and his recommendation calling for a retiring fund for Tuskegee institute teachers and other matters of especial interest with regard to the institute's work during the past year received the special consideration of the board. It is the plan to print and circulate Dr. Washington's report as a separate publication early in the fall. The report shows that altogether the school has received from all sources during the past twelve months for current expenses, permanent improvements, additions to the endowment and for special purposes $473,764.92, an increase of $116,432, or 32 per cent, over the past year's receipts. The report of the principal and treasurer showed that 849 colored people had contributed toward the expenses of the Tuskegee institute during the past year. While it is not a matter legally or directly connected with the work of the institute, nevertheless a plan was launched at the meeting by which 1,750 acres of land have been purchased near the institute with a view of encouraging young colored men, preferably graduated from the agricultural department of the Tuskegee institute, to settle and become farmers. The money to purchase the land outright was provided, and the land is now being surveyed for the purpose of erecting houses on it for prospective purchasers. It is the idea to make a model Negro farming settlement. On the tract of land are already a gin, store and railroad station. In addition to securing the money for paying for this land, the money was subscribed to pay all the expenses in connection with operating the experiment for a given period. During the meeting of the board of trustees in New York city news was published in the New York newspapers that the Tuskegee institute is to receive $50,000 under the will of the late Mrs. Morris K. Jesup. BELIEVES IN FAIR PLAY. Miss Maud Reynolds Correcta Mistake Regarding Home For Wayward Girls. Roanoke, Va.—In a letter to H. C. Young, editor of the Newport News Star, Newport News. Va., Miss Maud Reynolds of this city makes the follow- ing statement regarding her connection with the Virginia State Federation of Women's Clubs: In a recent issue of your spicy journal it was stated that I am the founder of the home for wayward girls. I am not the founder of the home, not wish to take honors which do not belong to me. This institution is being established by the Virginia State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs under the leadership of Mrs. J. Barrett of Hampton, Va. I am simply one of the officers, working for the cause. I regret very seriously that this mistake has been published, and I do hope that the above corrections will place me in the proper light before the public. Respectfully. (MISI) MAUD REYNOLDS.

Mr. Jones gives an interesting ac- count of the enthustastic way in which our people in the cities which he visit- ed are co-operating in work for social uplift. In Savannab, Ga., committees have been formed to conduct big brother and big sister work, to promote recre- ational and amusement facilities for the young, to foster neighborhood im: provement by parents” meetings, in- spection of yards and homes in inter est of better garbage and trash dis- posal and cleanliness of bomes, and also to co-operate with the local as- sociated charities in providing rellef for the poor. ' The significant thing about the movement fm Savannah Is that persons in all walks of lfe— business men, professional men, house- wives, teachers and persons employed in domestic service—are, combining their forces without friction or class distinction for the common welfare of all. In Augusta. Ga., professors from Paine college, Hulnes college, of which Miss Lucy Laney is president: mem- bers of the fraternal organizations of the city and the professional classes have united in forming the Civic league, an affiliated organization of the A a i ‘Wrban league. They support three playgrounds, ‘urge the chaperonage of sumiier outings snd entertainments and are trying to secure colored visit- fg nurses to conduct campaigns against Oles and other disease breed- tug insects and are responsible for friendly visiting in needy neighbor hoods. The Neighborhood union of ‘Atianta, with Mrs. John Hope as pres Sent, bas divided the colored neigh: borbood into districts, over each of which a district leader presides.

THE DENVER STAR HAS MORE READERS THAN ANY OTHER NEGRO JOURNAL IN COLORADO. KNOWS HOW TO GET RESULTS Personal Story of the Labors of a Tuskegee Institute Graduate Among the People of Caroline County, Va. Hearty Co-operation in Effort to Secure Better Schoolhouses. Mrs. Nannie Lee Butler, who was graduated from Tuskegee institute in 1011 and is now serving as an industrial supervising teacher in Caroline county, Va., tells an interesting and prophetic story of the awakening of the colored people to the possibility of having, even under most adverse conditions, better schools, better homes and better community response to pressing needs. "Shortly after I took up my work as an industrial supervisor the state of Virginia, through the superintendent of public instruction, offered to provide the salary of a second teacher for every community that would build a two room school according to the state plans," said Mrs. Butler on a recent visit to Hampton institute. "I went into four communities and tried to show the advantages and wisdom of beeding this call. Each community that I visited, although it was poor, took up the struggle, and by personal contributions of work, money and materials all of the four schools, each costing $1,500 and having two teachers, have been built and occupied during the past year. "Sacrifices were made by our people to accomplish this result. At Bowling Green one man, whose property holdings are valued at only a thousand dollars and who has a growing family of eight to support, gave out of his weekly earnings in one year $250. How did he do it? Not all at once at some big rally. Sometimes at the freight office he would pay a bill for lime, cement or other material, and at the next meeting of the School Improvement league he would quietly hand the receipt to the treasurer. "One man who did the mason work gave one-half of his time free. Another man who lives in a shabby, rented tenement, contributed $5 of the $8 he had received for laying the cement floors of the porch. Still another man who did not have the ready money did have timber land, from which he cut and hauled logs to the mill and contributed the lumber cut from them. "To push the work more rapidly the women gathered at one school, and while the men of the community put on the weather boarding the women nailed on the laths on all the side walls and finished their tasks without a smashed finger. Many of the women who are helping to support their families by washing (and, I might say, that 25 cents is the price paid for an individual laundry in Caroline county) have time and time again contributed the whole amount to push along the work of school building. "Last year the colored people raised by contributions, without help from the school board, some $5,400 for buildings and school improvements. We are now striving to raise $6,000 to build four more graded schools. We are also striving to collect $200 to equip properly the workroom at Bowling Green, for wherever new graded schools have supplanted the one room schools we are endevouring to use the old buildings as workrooms in which will be taught sewing, cooking and housekeeping to the girls and manual training to the boys. Every school that has been reached has been awakened to the idea of doing something definite to improve conditions and to make the school buildings and grounds attractive. "Through the summer work we have been better able to reach the homes, and by teaching the children in their own homes we have been able to influence the mothers. Wherever possible mothers' clubs have been formed. They have for their purpose not the raising of money for the schools, but the changing of the morals and the manners of the children in the home, along the highway and in the school. "My preparation for work in this great forward movement I owe to Tuskegee. There from the big heart of Dr. Booker T Washington I learned the lessons of unselfharness and service. In sending me out to do industrial work he took me by the hand and said, 'We don't expect you to fall.' Thus he gave me inspiration to put into practice the lessons he had learned at Hampton and which he had taught me at Tuskegee." TWO SCHOOLS OF THOUGHT. Time to Unite All Forces For Racial Uplift, Save Dr. Seinberg. In his opening remarks as the pre- ading officer at the fourth session of the sixth annual conference of the National Association For the Advance- ment of Colored People, held in Balti- more from May 3 to 5 inclusive, Dr. Joel E. Spingara made the following significant statement concerning the duty of the leaders of the two great forces among our people which are working for the civil, educational and industrial advancement of the moca. Dr. Spingara said: "The colored world and that portion or the white world which is interested in its fate is divided into two factions or schools of thought. One of these, associated with the name of Booker T. Washington, believing that the American Negro's future must depend primarily on his ability to compete economically with his white neighbors, insists on the need of industrial training. The other, associated with the name of Dr. Du Bols, believes that the Negro must claim his full rights as man and citizen or stand to lose everything. "The time has now come when these two schools of thought must be brought together and made to see that they represent not opposing, but complementary, doctrines. The time has now come when the hosts of Dr. Washington's friends, white and black, must be induced to join the movement for human rights, not as an abstract theory, but because without rights, without an organization to uphold them, all the economic progress which the industrial training of the Negro during the last quarter of a century has produced will come to caught. They must be taught to see that by joining forces with those who are fighting their civil and political battles they are not false to the gospel of industrial education, but making its results count securely and beyond the danger of reprisal. With anti-Negro legislation becoming an increasing menace, north as well as south, all friends of the Negro must join hands or see their work rendered useless and their hopes blasted. "It may be that Dr. Washington himself may be precluded by reason of a delicate position from fighting segregation in cities and on farms, Jimcrow legislation, laws forbidding white teachers in colored schools and the like, but his friends can wage the fight for him, and in so doing they will not be betraying his interests, but serving and conserving them. All who believe in justice must fight under one banner, and that banner has already been raised by the National Association For the Advancement of Colored People, an organization with thousands of members, white and black, with fifty branches and locals scattered over the country from the Atlantic to the Pacific, a militant yet conservative organization that welcomes all who believe in justice and equal opportunity for all men regardless of race, creed or color. With malice toward none, we invite all who believe in these principles to join in our fight." MANY THRIFTY MERCHANTS Heights Reached by Our People In Business, the Professions, Trades, Agricultural Pursuits and Religious Culture In the Sunflower State. What the Women Are Doing. Topeka, Kan.—In my trips over the country seeking information respecting the status of the race in the business world. I have not, as it might be suspected, confined my visits exclusively to the south. I have taken in sections in the east where many of the race study Greek and Latin, with no expectation of ever tracing a Greek hieroglyphic or ever tracing the Latin derivative of an anglicized word. I have visited the middle west, where the hurry chase for the almighty dollar allows little 'if any rest. I have visited Kansas, the Sunflower State, which Igallis made famous by his matchless eloquence and, where "Sockless" Jerry Simpson essayed to stop its clock of progress with his wild, rustic theories. When I came to Topeka, I admit, I was not prepared to believe that the race in this section was making such splendid strides forward in the business world. The success the race is achieving out here in a business way furnishes a denial to the statement that it requires obstinate discrimination and segregation to usher the race into the business arena. In Topeka the Negro votes and his vote is counted. He has been honored with responsible offices. Out here his homes are not segregated and he has a pretty fair chance to prove his ability. There is a strong Negro business league in this city, and in all my travels I have noted that wherever there exists a strong, active business league we find the race is making wonderfully rapid strides along business lines. While in Topeka was the guest of John M. Wright, whose name and high standing are the pride of Topekans, white as well as black. He is a man that has been untiring in his efforts to push the race in Topeka to the fore in business, and in many other ways. There are forty-two lines of business activity in which our people are represented in this city, fifteen trades and six professions. Although Topeka has a colored population of but 5,000, the race has $150,000 invested in business enterprises and owns $700,000 worth of real estate. Kansas is a great farming state, and the colored farmers keep pace with the whites, for there are 100 successful farmers and twenty gardeners among them whose cultivated acres he closes to Topeka so we make them Topeka. There are seven physicians one dentist, two pharmacists, five lawyers, three trained nurses and three schoolteachers in repeat who make up the professional class and who with the pastors of the twenty-one churches diffuse culture the equal of that found in the social centers of the east. Here I found, as in many places in the south, our women crowding into the business world and competing most successfully with the men. Mrs. John M. Wright manages, with the success of a male impresario, a theater; Miss Lena Thompson is a successful baker, Mrs. C. M. Ray conducts a chriptyp parlor. Mrs. Elsie Clark leads in the millinery business, while Mrs. Guy manages an insurance office. There is a pretty fair recognition of the brother in black in the distribution of political plums, as is shown by the fact that the city gives employment to thirty, the county to four, the state to fifteen and the federal government to eight. The public schools of Topeka are most admirably conducted, perfect harmony prevailing and both teachers and pupils intelligently and enthusiastically responding to the demand for more and better education for the race. Professor John Harrison, a former Ohioan, is making wonderful success as principal of the high school. The board of education has given him a fine modern fireproof building. Professor Roundtree, principal of one of the grade schools, is also enthusiastically equipping colored boys and girls for advancement. Frequently one forms an opinion of the occupants of a home by the character of the books the library contains. Most frequently one judges a town by the character of the homes he finds. One is at once impressed with the neat, tasty and beautiful homes here owned and occupied by people of our race. These homes tell the story of progress being made by the race in Topeka, and the interior arrangement of these homes bespeaks the quiet refinement of their occupants. I met while here the irrepressible Nick Chiles, editor and owner of the Plaindealer. Mr. Chiles is one newspaper owner among us who is a living evidence that a newspaper can be made to pay. The Plaindealer has one of the most complete plants of any newspaper in the country and is located in its own commodious building on the main street. The editor and owner also possesses in fee simple a beautiful city home and a fine farm just out from the city. Bequests of the Late Addie Freeman.

Pioneer Effort by Citizens of Brooklyn to Aid Deserving Institution. Brooklyn.—The memorial benefit for the Howard Orphanage and Industrial school held in the Majestic theater, in this city, on Sunday afternoon, April 26, under the auspices of the Citizens' club, was the largest undertaking of its kind ever held in the interest of the institution. Mr. L. Hollingsworth Wood, president of the institution, presided over the literary program and in his usual earnest and painstaking way gave a brief outline of the present status of the work. Mr. Clinton Rossiter was chairman of the finance committee for the occasion. W. Frederick Trotman was chairman of the benefit committee, which consisted of the following named well known public spirited citizens of this city: Charles W. Anderson, Fred R. Moore, Edwin F. Horne, Sr., Mansfield B. Snevily, R. M. Meroney, A. D. Hampton, Clinton L. Rossiter, Frank H. Gilbert, Dr. E. P. Roberts, George W. Harris, L. Hollingsworth Wood, Frederick B. Watkins, Henry T. Mars, William Russell Johnson, Charles H. Lansing, Lester A. Wailton, Charles O. Thomas, secretary; N. B. Dodson, and Edgar C. McDonald, treasurer, Nassau National bank. The management of the affair by Mr. Trotman was masterly and businesslike and showed him to be a young man of broad experience in matters of financing large movements which require skill and adaptability to get results in a given cause. In the matter of advertising the benefit by the use of large placards on the stations of the elevated railroad and at other important points of public travel, the securing of the Tempo club, which presented the National Negro orchestra to furnish the musical program under the direction of Mr. James Reese Europe and his assistants, the influence and national character of the speakers and the place in which the concert was held, it was a pioneer movement which presages even greater things for the future. The speakers were Dr. Nathan Krass, rabbi of Temple Israel and director of the Probation association of Brooklyn, and the Hon. Charles W. Anderson, collector of internal revenue. Mr. L. Hollingworth Wood received a great ovation from the audience when Dr. Krass referred to his unselfish work for the maintenance of the Howard Orphanage and Industrial school. Mr. Wood is a true and tried friend of our race and a philanthropist to the manner born. The meeting has aroused new interest in the institution among our people, and they are more determined than ever before to give it personal and financial aid and to hold up the hands of such white friends as Mr. Wood in their efforts to make the school of great service to our race. & BROTHER Groceries ce .

The State Central Committee of the Republican party of Colorado and the Colorado Progressive Party League, and the voters respectively allied therewith, through their respective committee on conference, hereby declare that it is absolutely necessary for all loyal citizens of Colorado to unite in their political efforts this fall under the banner of the Republican party to escape the insufferable conditions tolerated by the party now in control of our state affairs. We renew our allegiance to that principle of our government which declares that all its inherent powers are of and for and flow from all the people; we recognize that it is not alone the prerogative but the duty of the rank and file of any party to sweep aside such of its leaders as attempt to prostitute this essential principle. We believe in the supremacy of the law as an essential principle of government by any people who would dispense social and industrial justice in their affairs. We recognize that the Republican party has always contended for and insisted upon the maintenance of law and order as a fundamental concept of government; and that, when in control of our state affairs, it has always judiciously and fearlessly exercised governmental authority for the complete protection of all the people, in their lives, their liberties and their property, as has likewise maintained social and economic peace. We believe that the lamentable condition of Colorado's civic interests impose the duty upon all her loyal citizens to rise above mere partisanship in the approaching election, and to unite for the common purpose of re-establishing stable conditions in matters of governmental and social concern. We refuse to quarrel with either capital or labor; we accord to each the right to bargain with the other upon all matters not of an exclusively governmental import. While labor may have a temporary difference with capital over any one of many correlated departments of industry, and a wise public opinion should be brought to the amelioration and solution of such friction, yet any attempt upon the part of labor to deny rights to capital, and vice versa, should be promptly rebuked by the sainty of the community; since without capital there is no call for labor, and without capital government will fall, for there will be absent the incentive to command cohesion and uplift. VICTORY NEAR-YET VILLA'S HANDICAPPED. The dispatches of this week say that Villa's men have been expelled from the rebel army, which means that Villa is also expelled. We in Colorado are wondering if that American germ, prejudice, has had its impressions upon Carranza and his followers. Notice here of late how Villa's army has been harassed and denied money, food and ammunition. See how his victorious, triumphal march upon Mexico has been impeded. Was it because that Negro lion of Northern Mexico had become too powerful? Did Wilson's administrative, Bryan, forsooth, inform the Constitutionalist delegates that it would never do for a Negro to take Mexico City? Look what effect it would have upon America's Prejudice and the Wilson administration! Keep that Negro in the background; we know he is winning and loyal to Mexico, but check him, handicap him, delay him by quarrelling; do something to hold that Negro back. We wonder if this kind of sentiment so prevalent in the United States, has spread and caught a lodging place in Mexico? The committee appointed by the chairman of the Republican State Central Committee of Colorado, under authority conferred upon him by the Executive Committee of said State Central Committee, met in conference at the Brown hotel, in the City and County of Denver on June 16, 1914, with the committee appointed from the Colorado Progressive Party League, and considered the matter of the union of the Republican and Progressive voters of Colorado in the ensuing general election.

At the postoffice in the city of Denver MISS THRASHLEY'S MUSICAL SUCCESS AT ZION. Zion Baptist church has never witnessed any higher class musical program than was given June 30 by our own Denver product, Miss Beatrice Thrashley, and her six advanced pupils. An evening with the masters demonstrated how the young musical talented students rendered with ease, grace, technic and gripping power most difficult classics. So full and expressive were the translations and interpretations of the authors' masterpieces that a silent but joyous expression of assent went through the audience. To Miss Thrashley, who has for years, under the most difficult and discouraging conditions, fought her way to the top, where all Denver gladly recognizes her as a masterful preceptress. When the young girls played such classics as Menuet by Paderewski, interpreted by Rebecca Smith; Czerwonky's Scherzino by THE MAYOR OF THE CITY OF NEW YORK Margueritte Clark: Sharwenka's Polish Dance by Ethel Henry; Rachmaninoff's Prelude by Galena Andrews; Chopin's Polonaise—C Minor, by Ruby Ames, and Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsody (No. 2) by Hazel Ames; and when these masterpieces are so well played that spontaneous ebullitions of praise and satisfaction are witnessed, one can easily feel proud in saying that the six advanced students are musical wonders. Their parents have every reason to be proud of them and of their teacher, Miss Thrashley, under whom they were. But this mention would not be complete if we failed to mention the Orpheus Choral Society and the vocal solos by little Thyra Morrison. Zion Baptist church certainly proved their loyalty to their own and a large crowd was the consequence. Denver feels proud of Miss Thrashley and it is the Star's sincerest wish that she will attain the highest round possible in musical training and education. She is ambitious and deserves every honor Denver can and ought to give her. The Denver Star feels proud of her work and that of her advanced pupils. Her musical classes are constantly increasing and every Negro owes to the Negro musician his or her support and should give it to them. Why not develop and give our money to our girls?

One of Denver's Foremost Teachers Marries Kansas Man. The history of social Denver records few if any prettier weddings than that which took place on last Tuesday evening at the beautiful home of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Sprague when they gave in marriage their sister, Miss Carrie S. Joseph, to Mr. Herbert J. Gleed of Lawrence, Kansas. The house was artistically decorated with sunilax, palms and flowers. A bower made of snow white flowers, with a background of stately palms, formed the appropriate spot where the ceremony was performed. Promptly at 8:30 o'clock, with Mr Valurez Spratlin presiding at the piano, Mrs. Clarence Langston sang "A Perfect Day." The song and the singing was in perfect accord with the happiness of the occasion. Immediately following, the joyous strains of Mendelssohn's wedding march were heard and the groom appeared, escorted by his best man, Mr. Macoe Spratlin, a nephew of the bride. Both were attired in the conventional black. The bridal party, headed by Mrs. Wm. Parks as matron of honor, descended the broad staircase. The color scheme of pink and violet was carried out in the costumes of the attendants. Mrs. Parks was pretty gowned in a French model of violet and white chiffon and net. The skirt was finished with a number of ruffles, giving a bustle effect, while the bodice carried the low surplice drape finished with a violet girdle and immense butterfly bow. She wore a becoming hat trimmed with pink roses, tied with French knots of violet velvet. Mrs. Parks was followed by Miss Bessie Owens. Her gown was pink pussy willow silk with deep flounce of lace and huge girdle and butterfly bow. Her Dilsey bonnet covered in pink ribbon and ostrich tips completed the picture. Miss Mosella L. Joseph, youngest sister of the bride, appeared next in a gown of violet chiffon over violet crepe with pink satin girdle, having a drapery which hung gracefully to the right; her hat was a dainty creation of white lace and ostrich tips. Each of these attendants carried arm baskets filled with pink and violet sweet peas, tied with tulle of corresponding color. The guests who had waited in breathless expectancy, were charmed by their first glimpse of the bride when she appeared on the arm of her brother-in-law, who gave her away for she was indeed a bride to satisfy the most aesthetic soul. She was radiant in an exquisite creation of bridal satin, tunic effect, with long court train. The drapery at the front was caught with a shower of French hand made roses, while the bodico of rich rare lace laid in pretty folds, surplice fashion, with satin drape. It was cut V neck and her voluminous vell of Brussels net was fastened in a Grecian effect about her head, her mass of brown hair showing to great advantage above the billowy folds of white net which hung to the end of her long train. She carried a gorgeous bouquet of sweet peas, with a shower of valley illies. The service was read by Dr. Ward. Mrs. Fred Gleed of Lawrence, Kansas, mother of the groom, who came to be present at the marriage, was superly gowned in black brocaded satin, en train. The happy couple left at 11:30 for Manitou Springs, amid a shower of rice and the proverbial old shoes to spend a part of their honeymoon. The bride, who has been a resident of Denver since a small child, comes of one of the best and most aristocratic families in the country. She graduated from Manual Training, high school, Denver, and has been a successful teacher of domestic science in Kansas City schools for the past five years. Mr. Gleed hails from one of the oldest and most highly respected families of Kansas, a young business man of sterling qualities. The gifts were many and useful, having come not only from all parts of the United States, but from friends in South America. Mr. and Mrs. Gleed will be at home after July 15th in "Corahurst," the beautiful bungalow which the groom built and furnished for his bride and named in honor of her mother, the late Mrs. Cora Joseph. Two states are rejoicing over this union while a legion of friends over the country join in wishing them a bon voyage as they launch out on the matrimonial sea. WEST VIRGINIA POLITICS. Republican State Convention Demands Enforcement of the War Amendments. Charleston, W. Va.—Some of the most prominent colored men in this state were delegates to the Republican state convention, which recently met in this city. There were important matters affecting the colored voters of the state to be considered. It was, therefore, very fortunate for the race that it had such men as the Hon. L. O. Wilson of Weston, T. G. Nutter of Charleston, E. J. Graham, Jr., of Wheeling and William W. Sanders of Charleston to represent the colored voters of the state. The many stand which these men took on this occasion should serve as an example to our people in other states. West Virginia was the first state to consider the recommendation of the Republican national committee, which in substance meant a reduction of the representation of the colored delegates from the south to the Republican national convention. Every colored delegate present realized the gravity of the situation, but most of them were puzzled as to what course they should pursue. It was at Huntington that Delegate L. O. Wilson of Lewis county met Delegate E. S. Graham, Jr., of Ohio county, and from Huntington to Charleston there only topic was "What shall we do?" Upon reaching Charleston Messrs. Wilson and Graham went into conference with Delegate T. G. Nutter of Kanawha county and William W. Sanders, state librarian, with the result that the following resolution was adopted: "The adoption of the recommendations of the Republican national committee by the Republican party of West Virginia in convention assembled is not to be construed as an indorsement of the election laws of the southern states unjustly disfranchising thousands of American citizens who in law and in equity are entitled to express their choice at the ballot box, and the Republican party of West Virginia in convention assembled hereby denounces said election laws as unjust and indefensible and demands that the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments of the constitution of the United States be enforced and the southern states' congressional representation he based upon the actual voting strength under their election laws." The Hon. Eliot Northcott offered a resolution to adopt the recommendation of the Republican national committee, cutting down the representation of the delegates from the south, which was seconded. It was at this juncture that Delegate Dr. L. O. Wilson secured the floor and in a masterly address offered an amendment in the form of the resolution above mentioned. The amendment was unanimously adopted. The same resolution having been referred to the committee on resolutions was reported favorably and made a part of the state platform of the Republican party. FOR NATIONAL PROTECTION. Independent Political League Prepares For Seventh Annual Convention. The seventh annual meeting of the National Independent Political league, to be held in August, will be in the nature of a national gathering of those colored Americans who believe that, in view of the great discrimination, proscription and persecution of colored persons as such, they should have a national organization of self defense and self protection, as every other racial class suffering from prejudice has. All colored citizens who believe that in every state there should be such a self protection organization and that these should be connected into a national whole are urged to attend and also to communicate their views on the subject at once to the corresponding secretary, William Monroe Trutter, at 49 Cornhill, Boston. The league hopes for a large attendance from all parts of the country, every church and every society being empowered to send delegates on the basis of a mainly agitation and use of the ballot. The place of meeting will be announced later.

JONES CAPABLE MAN ON THE JOB. Notable Work of Dr. Robert T. Burt In Clarksville, Tenn. Clarksville, Tenn.--There are few states of its size which have to their credit a larger number of business and professional men of wide influence and ability than is true of Tennessee. Her educational institutions, churches and agricultural interests are manned by some of the most experienced men and women among our people in this country. The largest publishing house in the world owned and operated by colored men is in this state. One of the best medical colleges and also one of the leading institutions of learning is the proud heritage of Tennessee. In this thrifty community we have one of the leading physicians of our race in the person of Dr. Robert T. Burt, M. D., a graduate of the Meharry Medical college, Nashville, Tenn. He is well prepared for the work which he is doing so successfully among our people. He is a postgraduate of the Harvard Medical school, a former president of the Tennessee State Medical association and former state vice president of the National Medical association. Dr. Burt's activities are many and varied. He is the surgeon in chief of A. B. ROBERT T. BURT, M. R. the Home infirmary in this town. It is the only hospital of any kind here. The Home infirmary is a two story brick structure of fifteen rooms and is a credit to the race. It is meeting the needs of the people in a most satisfactory way. In the business arena Dr. Burt is the proprietor of the magnificent office building which bears his name. It is a two story edifice made of cement and brick, containing twenty-two rooms. The Rudolph Hook company, a wealthy firm of white men engaged in the tobacco business, occupies offices in the Burt building. All the tenants in the building are white people except the proprietor and Dr. S. Jefferson. Dr. Burt is well and favorably known among business and professional men throughout the state. His success has been earned by hard work, and he knows how to encourage the young men and women of the race who are making the struggle upward against great odds.

AND CHURCHMAN BELIEVES IN HIS PEOPLE Scholarly Financial Secretary of the A. M. E. Church Pays Fine Tribute to Business Tact of Bishop Payne. Educational Work of the Denomination Covers Wide Field. Washington.—The great educational work that is being done by the African Methodist Episcopal church is largely stimulated by one of its most prominent laymen, who did a remarkable work for the denomination as secretary of education. In this position Dr. John R. Hawkins became one of the leading educators of the race. Having demonstrated his ability as a financier worthy of any office that his great denomination could bestow upon him, he was elected at the last general conference of this body as financial secretary and was the first layman to be honored in this manner by this connection. Dr. Hawkins is always the principal speaker at the educational congresses of the various conferences of the church, and in speaking recently of the remarkable progress the race is making along educational lines he said: "But the most striking feature of this subject is that which relates to the spirit of 'self help' manifested by the colored people toward establishing and maintaining schools for themselves, schools for our youths, with all colored teachers, colored presidents, colored trustees and supported by con- A. DR. JOHN R. HAWKINS. tributions principally from colored people. First among these is the African Methodist Episcopal church, which has set the pace for all other denominations in this field of work. "It was a bold undertaking on the part of Bishop Payne when he signed a contract to pay $10,000 without knowing where he could get the first ten dollar bill. But he knew that behind him was a great church with a following of loyal people with great hopes and great possibilities. That obligation was met, and since then this noble man has gone on from one field to another laughing at opposition, removing obstacles, overcoming difficulties and establishing and maintaining schools and colleges. "Today the church stands before the world with twenty-four schools, 5,575 students, 224 teachers and school property valued at $1,050,000. To maintain these schools it is necessary to provide for current expenses of at least $300,000, which is done by voluntary contributions from the members and friends of the church from year to year. "I do it not boastingly /when I tell to the world the story of our rise and progress, either as a race or as one special church organization of a certain race.' A better idea of what the A. M. E. church is doing as an organization may be had when I tell you that one of the greatest demonstrations of our financial worth is shown in the business of the financial department of the A. M. E. church. There has been reported to this office alone during the fiscal year for which I have just given an account $221,666.75, which represents an increase over last year of $13,315.84. "This item does not include any money reported at our annual conferences or for any purpose whatever except that classed as 'dollar money.' If we add to our 'dollar money' collections all the funds raised and reported at our annual conferences we will show a table of business for one year of at least $1,500,000. "I am sure this is a splendid showing for one church organization of a baby race. This is but a part of the Negro's contribution to the uplift of humanity, for in these fifty years the colored people have, with courage and faith in God and in themselves, come bravely to the alar of duty and laid upon it their contributions with unmeasured cheerfulness."
