TWENTY-SIXTH YEAR Number 47 Having been granted a three weeks leave of absence by the officers of Shorter Chapel, in company with Mr. Royal C. Brown, president of the Allen Christian Endeavor League, I left Denver, Thursday evening, July 2nd, via Burlington Route for Atlanta, Ga., the seat of the Young Peoples Religious Congress. Our first stop was in Kansas City, where we spent the 4th, witnessing the dedication of Ward Hall at Western University by Bishop H. B. Parks, the trustees and visiting ministers assisting. The new building is a $20,000 three story brick, thoroughly modern in construction and appointment. The meeting of a number of old friends here made a substantial contribution to our visit. Among whom were Drs. H. T. Kealing, W. H. Thomas, J. R. flansom, W. H. Peck, J. McDonald Revs: J. C. Owens, W. C. Williams, C. H. Payne, J. H. Smith, Mr. and Mr. C. A. Franklin and Mrs. Unity Hall. To all of whom we were obligated for courtesies shown. On Sunday at the morning hour, I spoke at Allen Chapel and at the First A. M. E. church, Kansas City, Kan., at the evening hour. On leaving Kansas City our fellowship was enriched by the pessence of Dr. W. H. Thomas, pastor of Allen Chapel, Mrs. W. H. Peck, wife of Presiding Elder Peck, and Mr. T. H. Johnson, president of Allen League, who were bound for Atlanta. At St. Louis, Mo., we were met by Dr. W. S. Brooks, the financial king of Western Ministry, and a committee of young people, who made our stay pleasant. After having been driven over the city in an auto, a charming luncheon was served at the Silver Grill, a strictly modern cafe, owned and operated by our people. We then went aboard the "Atlanta Congress Special," which had been provided for the accommodation of our delegation which at that time had increased to fourteen. On reaching Nashville, Tenn., the morning of the 7th, we were met by representatives of the local Sunday School and Leagues, who accompanied us to the new printing plant of the A. M. E. Sunday School Union, where breakfast and dinner was served free. The new building stands on the corner of Lee and 8th streets, and is 112 ft. wide by 162 ft. in length. It is, without question, the largest, most modern and best equipped printing plant owned and operated by Negroes in the world. A regular force of 50 persons was employed in the old quarters and among them is Miss Lamb, a Denver girl. The inspiration received from this plant more than paid us for the trip. Through the courtesy of the local committee automobiles were put at the disposal of our party in which we were driven to points of interest throughout ```markdown ``` ESTABLISHED 1888 the city. Our party now greatly augmented by delegates from Tennessee, Kentucky, Illinois, Indiana and other places, went aboard the "Atlanta Congress Special," at 8:45 p. m. and Wednesday morning we arrived in Atlanta, the Gate City of the South. Mr. Brown's assignment put him at Morris Brown College, while Rev. W. H. Brown and I were the guests of Mrs. ane Mise Gaines, wife and daughter of Bishop W. J. Gaines of sainted memory. Having been comfortably domiciled our next duty was to register and see who was in town. The registration office was located at the entrance of "Big Bethel church," a great stone edifice, accommodating about 3000 persons, where the general meetings were held. The movement was financed through a registration fee of 50 cents, upon the payment of which a delegate was given an official badge, a supply of stationery REV. R. L. POPE. and a 32 page program. Aside from this a number of other conveniences had been provided, An Information Bureau was in the office of the church. In the lecture room we found a U. S. Post Office with conveniences for correspondence, a Sunday School and League supply booth, well supplied with song books, Bibles, charts, black-board, maps and various other helps for the Sunday School and League. Also a firstclass cafe to serve the delegation. The Congress opened Wednesday evening with mammoth welcome service, when it become evident this gathering was to be one of the greatest in the history of the Race. Quiet hour service was held each morning at 6 o'clock, which was a source of great strength and lumination. Sectional conferences were held daily from 9 to 11:30 a.m., at Morris Brown College. The Minister's conference was in charge of Bishop L. J. (Continued on page 3) Denver Star DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, AUG. 8, 1914 Seventeen years ago, little did Mme. Lizzie DeNeal know or dream that by this time her ideas and methods of growing and treating the hair and scalp and her information about the equipment and accessories used in the development of beauty culture, together with her keen knowledge of facial massage, electrolysis, dermatology and its kindred lines, would ever force her into the business arena of life, where she would of necessity, become a business factor in the elevation of the financial and moral status of the Negro womanhood. Her first work was begun in St. Louis, Mo., and about 9 years ago she began to practice in Denver, and worked up a large and lucrative trade in the most exclusive residential district in Capital Hill, among the best white citizens of class and refinement. She soon found out that her knowledge of such a vast and comprehensive art was limited and more study was necessary along the line of scientific analysis of the normal and abnormal conditions of the scalp and hair, where brains could help the work and the work could help the brains. At that time she was restricted to the work of shampooing and manicuring. The science of hair health soon revealed that the art of hair dressing with eoiffures, wigs etc, hair weavings, hair dyes and electrolysis dermatology-all formed a part and each particular part in time would become a separate branch of itself. And so, feeling her inadequate knowledge to thoroughly handle each situation, medicinally, scientifically and from the standpoint of analysis in 1910, Mme. DeNeal entered the famous and world recognized college of Hair Dressers Manicurists, Dermatologiststs and Chiropodists, E. Burnhams's Beauty College, and graduated from the college after successfully finishing the prescribed course of instruction. Realizing now the truth in the poet Longfellow's words of the old sage, King Olaf, "Then said Olaf laughing "Not ten yoke of oxen have the power to draw us like a woman's hair!" She set about to study what special treatment in oil or tonic, would best effect and influence the growth of the hair upon the heads of Negro women. So by a combination of the tonic, only used upon Caucasian heads and an especially prepared DeNeal Oil thus her health hair food was consumated and the DeNeal Hair Health became a reality. She left Denver about two years ago for a larger and wider field and went to the Great Northwest. Before leaving Denver Mrs. Ida Cox-Holley was given a brief course in manicuring and scalp work and she was Mme. DeNeal's representatives in Denver. Mme. DeNeal began residence work in Seattle, Washington (American City) and Vancouver, British Columbia (Canadian City) more to study and compare the customs, habits and actions of the two cities to enable her to more accurately and correctly ascertain the true basis for a business venture. Her work became so well known that offers came to her from Montreal, Canada, Portland, Oregon and Spokane, Wash., to come there and establish a branch office. Thus her work has forced her on the lecture platform in Canada as well as in the United States. She demonstrates her secret which aids only nature in the growing of hair and beautifying of oneself. Her experiences have taught her how to profitably make toilet articles, cosmetics, hair dyes, and the now famous DeNeal "Hair Invigorator," "Hair Grower" and "Shampoo Powders." In response to several questions, the Mme. DeNeal speaking of the hair and conditions as effects humanity, There is no excuse today for either man or woman tobecome bald. When such a misfortune does occur, it is brought by lack of attention, through ignorance or carelessness. "If a man has long hair, it is a shame unto him; but if a woman has long hair it is a glory to her-St. Paul. Hair is just as much a physiological process as the beating of the heart; both depend upon circulating blood for their food, and when this is denied them, both cease to live. Hair can be cultivated and developed, just as any part of the body. An athlete proud of his arms, spends most of his time in feats re- THE WORLD'S FIRST WOMEN'S HISTORY MUSEUM quiring their use, and he develops a beautiful pair of arms, while the other parts of his body remain weak and unshapely. Constant attention given to an ordinary head of hair will, in nearly every case, make it thick, heavy and lustrous, just as proper attention given to the development of the body will greatly increase it in strength and symmetry. The loss of the hair is always a subject of great consideration and anxiety. While there are some cases of chronic and even hereditary baldness, I am satisfied that a large percentage of baldness is capable of being cured. Only when the roots are absolutely dead and extirpated can the case be regarded as hopeless. The remarkable and unprecedented growth in public favor of my system for the hair and scalp, and the success I am having in many almost hopeless cases has induced me to let the public know of 'My Remedies' and impress those who are affected by the loss of their hair with the necessity of taking care of the scalp and preserving their "Crown of Glory." And I therefore believe as Pope, race ensure and beauty draws us with a single hair." It is necessary therefore, to keep the scalp in a healthy condition, first by a clean scalp-hair will not grow in a dirty scaly scalp. Second, the proper use of the tonic and ointment, scientifically applied by the DeNeal method, will cleanse, invigorate and promote the growth of the hair. Such remedies as I have before mentioned will do the work." And further speaking of her future plans, she said: Atter returning to Seattle in about two weeks, I shall open up the DeNeal Hair Health College, where a course of study of the FIVE CENTS A COPY Letter To The Denver Star About the Fall Campaign. I am receiving letters and callers for help and advice in securing jobs and places to work in the coming campaign. I want to state through your valuable paper that, as my position is now under civil service, and the rules are so very strict, that I am not permitted to take any active part in a campaign, and I can assure you that it is a great relief to anyone holding a public office to be relieved of the responsibility of having to dabble in politics in order to hold their position from one administration to another. Since I have held my present position of messenger to the governor of the state of Colorado, I have never lost an opportunity to help any one of my race whom I deemed worthy, to get a position, or any advice desired by state officials and their departments. I have succeeded in opening up three very creditable positions as recognition of the Negro's support in the past three Democratic administrations, and there are other creditable positions available to our young people, but these will now have to be secured through civil service and the influence of the head of the department controlling the position. The time has passed for jobs to be handed out of some boss white man's or boss Negro's pocket on account of his boss's influence. Under the new system of campaign organization and nomination of candidates by the people by the primary vote, party lines are almost eliminated, and it behooves all persons interested in getting a job to get behind the candidate controlling the job you want. It is also to the interest of every Negro to support the candidates that you know are in sympathy with your race and your interests, allowing a degree of consideration for the general welfare of the public. Candidates who have given us recognition should be considered above all others, and under all circumstances, in order that we show recognized us and given us an opportunity to share in municipal and state government. There are as many different factions of our people as there are of other races, and all have their distinct and separate grievances and demands. For instance, one faction wants all the Negroes fired that are now in and their following put in, and his interest in a campaign is usually centered against some one holding a position, and his notion of campaigning is to stir up strife among the different factions instead of trying to unite the Negroes for one common interest along lines that will reach the wants and demands of all factions. I want to say that that kind of campaigning is not the kind to be countenanced by our people, as there are issues of more vital importance to the masses of the race that should be considered in this campaign than settling grievances between two or three Negroes holding petty jobs. There will be a great many important issues up during this campaign that the Negro is directly, as a class, interested in, and those issues will be thoroughly explained to the Negro voters through the Negro journals and from the pulpits, and no candidate should be supported who is not in sympathy with the issues that concern us as a race. I am glad the day of the boss Negro politician has gone, and that the "know it all" Negro with a $5.00 bill of some candidate has lost his influence. The new form of campaigning has placed the responsibility of educating the people in higher authority's hands, and the Negro press and the ministry are responsible for the destiny of the Negro's progress along political lines in Colorado. The candidate who hires a "curbstone Negro" politician to rent a hall, put out placards that he will speak, and that there will be ice cream for the ladies and plenty of booze for the dancers, good music and a general free for all good time, will not catch the Negro's vote this fall, as the Negro voter has read up on the new way and can judge for himself as to the sincerity of a candidate's talk and his, manner of campaigning among Negroes. The candidate who prepares a lot of booze and noise to attract you to his hearing will not do anything for your progress after his election. The candidate who contributes to our Negro press and our institutions, and makes a sane, common sense talk to our people in one of our churches and pays for the lights and the jailor's services, is a more safe candidate to be considered. What the leading Negroes should do is, after the primaries are over, to get together and make up an independent ticket out of tickets and use all influence to elect that ticket. There will not be a single candidate in the running but what some responsible Negro will know of his or her good and bad qualities. If a conference was held by our leaders, the masses would be advised as to who were safe candidates to support. This conference should not be called by any mass meeting, but by representatives from Church News PEOPLE'S PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH E. 23RD AVE. AND WASHINGTON ST. PASTOR, J. A. THOS- HAZELL S. T. B.

The Stereopticon Sermon for tomorrow night is taken from our Lord's parable, "The Talents." This is one of the most gripping lessons in the Gospels. Do not fail to be present. Our Sunday school attendance this summer is greatly in excess of any record ever made in the history of Zion. Furthermore the work is more thoroughly organized than ever before. t is a Sunday school that is modern. The children like to come. "There's a reason." The B. Y, P.

On Tuesday afternoon, Mrs. Eliza Dishman entertained about fifty of Denver's most exclusive society ladies. The occasion was a garden party complimentary to Mrs. Lizzie De Neal, who has been absent from our city about two years, and is passing through Denver enroute to Seattle, Washington. On the lawn were scattered rugs, hassocks, a hammock swing, all kinds of easy chairs and stools. These, with the beautiful bouquets of garden flowers gave an air of rest and pleasure. Delicious fruit nectar was served to the guests by Misses Clella Chapman and Batina Jackson. The afternoon was ideal and the charming hostess spared neither time, expense nor effort in arranging for the comfort of those present. The ladies in their pretty afternoon frocks, chatting pleasantly here and there, completed the beautiful picture. After serving a dainty lunch, beautiful mementos were given and the guests departed for their homes with the sweet memories of an afternoon profitably, as well as pleasantly spent.

Mrs. Ida Cox Holly assisted, the hostess in making it pleasant for her guests. LAID TO REST. Sad and impressive was the funeral ceremony of Mrs. George Hall, the pioneer society and churchwoman at Central Baptist church. So well liked and so highly esteemed was she that the whole block in front of the church was occupied with carriages and other vehicles. Her devoted friends paid their last mark of respect to her and her loss will be greatly felt, not only in the church, but in the lodges and in this community. No labor was too hard, no task too tedious, no honor or exalted and no affair too expensive for her church, her race and her family. Quiet, unassuming, faithful and industrious were the shining qualities so well recognized by all of Mrs. Hall's friends. The Star expresses its deepest sympathy for our brother in his darkest hour of sadness and bereavement, and we bid him remember that this world's loss is heaven's gain. LODGE DIRECTORY.

This conference was in reality a national affair, for there were present representatives from Detroit in the North and from Key West on the South; from Philadelphia on the east and Los Angeles on the West. Thirty-five states were represented and the delegation from some states exceeded a hundred. Editor Benj. Davis of the Atlanta Independent writing of the Congress said: "The Religious Congress now in sessions in our city, is to my mind the greatest gathering of its kind our Race has held. More than 2000 delegates and visitors are in attendance and incalculable good will doubtless result therefrom. It is not a gathering to collect money, for the financial end is kept in the back ground: nor is it a place to display political chicanery: there is no legislating, no elections. It is a great young peoples meeting, whose sole end is the development of efficient Christian workers, thereby to reach the unreached." Thus closed a remarkable gathering. Having accepted invitations to visit a number of charges in which I had labored, I bade adieu on Saturday afternoon to my western comrades, whose fellowship I prized highly and entered upon an itinery which included the following places.: Montgomery, Eufaula and Troy, Ala., Pensacola, Fla., Columbus and Athens, Ga., and Chattanooga, Tenn. At each place I met scores of friends and acquaintances and spoke once or twice to appreciative audiences. All the way from three to twelve years having passed since I visited these places, I was in splendid position to note the trend of racial conditions. From a study of conditions as I saw them I received three distinct impressions. 1. That race prejudice in the south is becoming more and more unreasonable and embarrassing. In Atlanta and Montgomery, our people take the rear seats on street cars and fill to the front, while in Chattanooga and Birmingham, Ala., they take the front ones and fill to the back. During the Congress an Atlanta conductor invited one of our delegates from New Orleans, who happened to be very fair, to a seat in the front of the cat. Imagine his chagrin, when she replied, "I prefer sitting with the members of my race." In the state of Florida where the Negroes have enjoyed larger liberties than in any other southern state, thru recent legislation, it is a crime for white teachers to instruct Negro pupils, and in terminal stations, Negroes have to purchase tickets through a separate window. I visited one town in the state of Alabama where the Negroes had to get on and off cars from a different sides to that for the other race. With these and a thousand and one other obstacles thrown in the path of the Negro, our surprise is not that he has not done better, but rather that he has not done worse. In the second place, observation led me to the conclusion: not to the conclusion. That, under touch of Christian education, race perjudice is being made a stopping stone to better things. In the state of Alabama where perjudice has been very sharp, but where Tus- kegoe Institute, Taladega College and other schools are located one can travel 25 miles without getting off land owned by Negroes, and in this state, the Alabama Penny Savings Bank, the Oldest Negro bank in the world, is located. About fifteen years ago a teacher in the public schools of Athens, Ga., resigned her position and applied for a school located in the Northern part of Clarke Co., about five miles from the city. She secured the position and set to work to build up a Negro community. Soon a beautiful two-room school house was erected and painted; night school was opened for the men and boys, farmers conferences were held, men and boys were organized into land-buying clubs, corn clubs, painting clubs, etc. Today in that settlement, where 15 years ago only 6 farms were owned by Negroes, 257 farms are owned and controlled byour people, and numbers of one and two room cabins have been supplanted by four, five and even eight room dwellings. One young man from that community is now a student at Hampton institute. Ten years ago there were about a dozen Negro Industrial Insurance Companies operating in Georgia. Hoping to put the Negro companies out of commission and get their business for white companies, an enactment was passed requiring all companies to deposit $10,000 with the state treasury for the protection of policy-holders. It was expected that this would sound the death knell to Negro Insurance in Georgia. But this served as a stepping stone to something better. Herndon's Company met the requirement, bought in the other Negro companies and today, Atlanta has even an old line life insurance company—the only Negro company of its kind in this country. Some months ago, a colored woman in the employ of a wealthy white family, developed a contagious disease. Her employees sought to get her into the city Hospital for treatment, but while there were plenty of vacant rooms, they were in the white ward, the ward for colored people was crowded; hence this sick woman had to be returned to the premises of her employer, and thus the health of this family was endangered. After having made several unsuccessful efforts to have the patient treated elsewhere, this wealthy employer exposed, through newspapers, the folly and cruelty of a city, christian by profession, failing to provide for proper treatment of a contagious disease because the skin under which it appears happens to be black. He demanded in self defense that the evil be remedied. The local newspaper took up the matter, subscriptions were taken, and there is now a $50,000 hospital in which the Negro citizens of that community are treated. And finally, I have been led to the conclusion that in the south, the Negro is found at his worst and at his best. There are millions of our people in the slums of cities and in rural districts who have made practically no advancement in civilization during the past fifty years. They are today in the same condition they were in when the Emancipation Proclamation was issued. They have remained in ignorance largely because of the adverse conditions under which they eke out an existence. It is this element that commits a large per cent. of the crime in the south, it is this element that makes "Jim Crow" cars on Sundays the frontier of torment, this is the element that makes the self-respecting Negro wish sometimes that he was not a Negro. But right over against this class of our people there stands another that is as noble as this one is ignoble, as thrifty as this is prodigal, as law-abiding as this is criminal and as good a citizen, as this is undesirable. It is a serious mistake to suppose that when you have seen the "tough Negro" you have seen the south. The best is still just ahead. In point of educators and great leaders, to see the south you must see such men as W. H. Crogman, Booker T. Washington, and J. W. E. Bowen. If it is the Negro business you desire to see in the south you must see such establishments as the Standard Life Insurance Co., of Atlanta, the Herndon barber shop with twenty-four chairs—said to be the finest in the world, the Amos Drug Co., the Rucker and Odd Fellows Buildings and the Morton Theatre. And even in politics a few of our people appear to good advantage. In Chattanooga, Tenn., I had the pleasure of dining with Mr. H. Tyrese, who is alderman from the fourth ward of that city. Knoxville, Tenn., also has as alderman a prominent Negro physician. And thus we shall find in every walk of life that over against the worthless is set the thrifty and cultured and against the criminal is set the honest and self-respecting. After all that may be said of the south, both pro and con, the fact still remains that no one can make a tour of Dixie and see the Negro as he is without being led to the conclusion that Negro has within him elements of greatness and that some day in the distant future Ethiopia may stretch forth her hands. The Alabama Dixie Line Railroad. The progress of the colored people of Alabama is attracting a deal of attention since the news of the Dixie Line railroad was given to the public. This railroad runs from Kowalaga, a thrifty town in the state, to Alexander City in the eastern part of the state, and is the first to be built and operated by our race in America. The Dixie Line connects with the Central Georgia railroad at Alexander City, Ala. Knights of Pythias Start New Lodge. The Knights of Pythias of Georgia are steadily increasing in numbers, influence and usefulness as a secret order. Grand Chancellor Bolen recently set apart a new lodge in Arcadia, Ga., with twenty-one members. Endowment Secretary F. M. Cohen and other members of the order from Savannah assisted the grand chancellor in setting up the new lodge, which bears the name Dorsether. Coachman For Judge Richard Parker, Who Presided at the Trial of the Here of Harper's Ferry, Tells Thrilling Story—Hale and Hearty at Seventy-six Years of Age. Alliance, O.—One of the most highly esteemed colored men in this city is Presley Dunwood, whose life story is a most interesting bit of information. His memory is intimately linked with the daring dash of John Brown of Harpers Ferry, which gave the tocosin of the bloody civil war. Presley Dunwood was the servant of Judge Richard Parker, the noted jurist, who presided at the trial of John Brown. In giving brief bits of information concerning his early career Mr. Dunwood says: "I was born in Clark county, Va., in 1838 and taken from my mother when one year old. At the age of seven I was 'hired out,' in 1851-2 being with a man named Isaac Gantz. In 1853-4 I was 'hired' to Henry Hose of Perrysville, Va. In 1855 I was with John Shumetz and in 1856-7 was 'hired' with a man named Henry Hess in Loudon county, Va. In 1857 there was a division of the men in some way, and I fell to the ownership of Judge Richard Parker of Winchester. Judge Parker had judicial charge of the courts of both Jefferson and Frederick counties. "John Brown with his handful of men came to the neighborhood of Harpers Ferry on Sunday, Oct. 16, 1859, and on Monday morning at 1 o'clock made his charge and by morning gained possession of the arsenal. There was fighting with much excitement up to 3 o'clock, when a company of Washington marines came up and captured Brown and his men. Brown had with him but eighteen men. "I believe he expected many more, but was betrayed. They did not show up as promised or anticipated. Hayward Shepherd was the first man to be shot in that day of turmoll. He was the toll keeper of the Maryland bridge, as it was called, Brown and his men coming up to Harpers Ferry from the Maryland side. Shepherd would not give up the keys to the bridge to Brown and his men, and he was shot. "The trial of Brown and the men captured with him was held at Charles-town, in Jefferson county. I had charge of Judge Parker's carriage and drove him to and from the courthouse to his home every day during the trial. I often saw John Brown during this time, but did not hear any of the evidence in the trial, as colored people were not allowed in the courthouse. We were given to understand that Brown and his men had attacked the government. I was told the life of the judge was threatened, but I never saw any trouble while driving to and from the courthouse. The trial of Brown alone fasted a period of three weeks and the trial of those with him about three weeks more—six weeks in all. "The men were condemned to death, and Brown was the first to be hanged. Seven men in all were hanged, the hanging having taken place on Dec. 2, 1859. John Brown's wife came and received his body. Parker was not in sympathy with the south in the matter of slavery, but had to do his duty as a judge. "Following the hanging of Brown and his men, slaves were sold rapidly, many owners realizing the probabilities the future held in store. After the election of Lincoln as president there was no sale for slaves at all." "At the beginning of the war I was pressed into the Confederate army and was with that army in the first battle of Bull Run. Following a big fight about Winchester, I was captured by a company of the Forty-sixth Pennsylvania volunteers under command of Captain Benjamin W. Morgan, and from that time on I was in the Union army, however, not an enlisted man. I was in the battle at Cedar Mountain, the second Bull Run fight, and saw much of the fight at Antietam. "After the war I accompanied Captain Morgan to Pittsburgh and worked for him for several years, he being engaged in business there, conducting a confectionery store. In 1868, knowing where my mother was, I brought her to Pittsburgh and was with her and cared for her until her death in 1901. A pension had been obtained for mother. My brother Jim was a soldier in the Union army, he being killed in the battle at Petersburg. "After mother's death I left Pittsburgh, coming to Lisbon, and for some years worked at the Hostetter House. Two years ago I came to Alliance from Lisbon with Claud Hasbrouck, and I have since remained here. I never went to school a day in my life, but can read and write, a good old Prebysterian lady at Winchester in about 1800 teaching me to read from the Bible and also to write. I have seen Abraham Lincoln, Johnston, Lee, Grant and others of the noted generals of that day. I have seen President Wilson's father and heard him preach, he having lived and preached in Virginia in that region where my younger years were passed."

HONORED IN NATIVE TOWN. Now Dr. S. L. Edwards Delights to Serve His Home Folks. Anderson, S. C.-The number of professional men of our race who, after obtaining their education, locate in their native homes to pursue their profession, as a rule is few. This is, however, not true of Dr. S. L. Edwards of this city, who was born and reared here and has his place of business only a few blocks from the house in which he was born. The general public points with pride to the fact that unlike many persons of prominence he is contented to live and do business among the people of his boyhood days, by whom he is honored and highly respected. After completing the public school course in this city Dr. Edwards pursued a course of study at Knox institute, Athens, Ga., and then entered the dental department of Meharry Medical college at Nashville, Tenn., where his ability was so pronounced that he was made a member of the dental faculty. As a professor in that department he raised it to a standard that has made it the envy of other dental schools. In 1909 Dr. Edwards appeared before the state board of dental examiners of South Carolina and had the distinction of passing with the highest average made that year. As a very young man Dr. Edwards always seemed to be fired with the determination to be something, and to do something for the race with which he is identified. The success that he has achieved in his chosen profession demonstrates that A. B. L. EDWARDS, D. D. S. he has not swerved from his original determination. He was married Nov. 16, 1910, to Miss Zadie M. Chancellor. He is a regular attendant at the meetings of the National Medical association, and his papers and discussions are always listened to with marked attention, because his practical experience has fitted him to speak with authority. On most occasions when he is visiting the state association meetings, and the annual meetings of the National Medical association, he is accompanied by Mrs. Edwards, who is greatly interested in these organizations and the part which Dr. Edwards takes in helping to make the program of the sessions attractive and instructive. The membership of the association is increasing, and public interest in its annual meetings is widely felt. PLACE FOR MAJOR YOUNG. Effort Made to Have Gallant Soldier Head New York Regiment. New York.—Representatives of the United Colored Democracy of the State of New York have written to Governor Glynn suggesting that Major Charles Young, United States cavalry, who is an officer at present detailed as military attache to Monrovia, Liberia, and assisting in the instruction of the Liberian army, be made colonel of the national guard regiment of colored militia authorized by the legislature of the state in 1913. Major Young is the only Negro officer of his rank in the regular army. He entered West Point in June, 1884, and will have completed thirty years' service next month. Under army regulations an officer can retire, with the consent of the president, after thirty years' service, and the prominent colored men of this city, who have been fighting for years for the privilege of organizing a regiment, plan to have Major Young detailed to active service after his retirement and assigned to organize the authorized regiment in this state. This plan would continue Major Young on his active service pay of $3,000 a year. Robert N. Wood is president of the United Colored Democracy, and the other officers include F. F. Peresett William H. Austin, James D. Carr John T. Thorne, D. Macon Webster Henri L. Smith, Cornellus A. Hughes Owen M. Wailer, W. W. Hanley, F. Q Morton, J. Frank Wheaton, Edmund O Austin, Samuel W. Jackson and Rufus L. Perry. The letter to Governor Glynn suggesting Major Young for colonel of the regiment was in part as follows: "The adjutant general has postponed organization of the colored regiment, owing to the fact that not a sufficient number of candidates passed the examination for officers. It has again been proposed that the regiment be commanded by white officers. I desire herewith to renew our objections to this proposal and to suggest a practicable means for the expeditious organization of the regiment in accordance with the plain intent of the statute that makes mandatory provision for it. "To place white officers in command of the regiment would be a clear violation of the statute. The statute provides for a colored regiment. Nowhere in the military law is the term 'regiment,' standing alone, used to describe only the privates and noncommissioned officers of such a military unit as distinguished from its commissioned officers, but everywhere in that law this term, so used, means the entire unit, including all officers in command." The letter also sets forth debates in the legislature to support the content that advocates of the new regiment act refused compromise measures providing for white officers. The letter continues: "Intelligent and disinterested colored citizens of this state do not now desire nor have they ever desired to have a regiment commanded by white officers. If we are not to have a regiment in which colored men may aspire to any rank for which they are fitted then we want no regiment."

The work of the eastern and western branches free public libraries for colored people in Louisville, Ky., is conducted by Librarian Thomas F. Blue along the most approved business lines. The library staff consists of five persons, with three trained substitutes. The library conducts an apprentice class for those desiring to enter library service. Applicants must have a high school education or its equivalent and pass an examination to enter this apprentice class. The class puts in three months' actual work in the library in all departments before students are placed on the eligible list for positions on the staff. The work of the colored branch libraries of Louisville, Ky., is unique, and until recently there was nothing like it elsewhere. Assistants preparing for library work with colored people have been sent to Louisville from other cities for training. Louisville is to be congratulated on what she has done for the advancement of the colored people through library work, and Mr. Blue on the splendid manner in which he has carried out the policies of the "librarian. The Rao is Geing 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 more acres than they controlled in 1900. The colored farmers of that state have under their control 3,562,000 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 17.2 per cent, and now they own or control one-fourth of all the farm property in Alabama, having an aggregate value of 187,278,000. ye oa ae fe csr fe pee aie eet RR rah Oy Aree TITRE CHAS.

On Wednesday evening, July 29, oc- curred one of the prettlest-aftairs of the season when Mr. and Mrs, Chas. ‘Montgomery gave in marriage their youngest daughter, Ruth Ida, to Mr. Ledyard Cornelius Jones. The house was beautifully decorated in the col- ors of pink and white and the rooms were lavishly adorned with masses of white foliage and huge boqucts of white and pink sweet peas?and car- nations. Just before the ceremony, which took place promptly at s:00, Mme. Lillian H. Jones charmed the waiting throng with her beautiful ren- dition of “Because,” after which ap- peared upon the arm of Mr, Eugene Montgomery, the brother, the xrace- ful bride, adorned in a creation of Parisian ivory satin and silk chantilly fringed with silver tinal. (A beauti- ful rinestone, itself a wedding pres- ent, together with a white rose in her coiffure, were worn by the bride, add- ing a most splendid effect. Little Harriet Montgomery carrled the ring in a silver tray, Mned with white sweet peas, and took a prominent part in the wedding processional, The ‘groom in conventional black closely followed, and Rey. Robt. L. Pope, in a simple and impressive manner Joined the happy hearts together and cemented their eternal lives with the ring. The many ‘guests partook of the swell reception which followed the marriage. The bride is the daughter of one of Denver's oldest and most representa- tive property owning citizens. She was born and reared in Denyer. The groom is also a Colorado product and is the popular son of mrs. Anna Jones of Colorado Springs.

NEED OF LAW ENFORCEMENT s dition and Color Gives “Rise to Un- usual Action on the Part of Southern Juriste. While the Bar association at Bir- mingham, Ala., is working bard o9 ways and means to revise the court Procedure whereby standards for prac- ticing attorneys will be raised and technicalities and, financial, political and social influence as. ap obstruction to law enforcement reduced to a mini- mum, two cases are causing wide spread comment and an increased sentiment for judicial reform, says the ‘New York Evening Post in a recent issue. One is the case of an obscure Negro, who was sentenced to fifty years in the penitentiary for robbing a fellow workman of 50 cents and was paroled by the governor because of ill health after serving twenty years. In striking contrast is the case of a highly educated and widely connect- ed aristocrat who, in the capacity of a trusted official, robbed the state of $100,000, was sentenced to ten years in the penitentiary, took an appeal and, after six months, has not yet been committed to state prison. ‘This contrast in its effect upon the public thought and demand for more equitable law enforcement is etrength- ened by the case of another Negro, who, upon purely circumstantial evi- dence, has been sentenced by a county jury five times to the gallows during a legal fight covering a period of four years, had his verdicts reversed and ‘remanded three times by the supreme court and is awaiting execution under a fourth ruling of the higher tribunal. Twenty years ago Frank Williarus, an lliterate and poverty stricken Negro working on the road, robbed a fellow workman of 50 tents. A Hale county jury sehtenced Williams to fifty years in the penitentiary. He made an excellent prisoner, having been a trusty for eighteen yesrs. His health ae way, and one of the judges of the supreme court recommended that he be paroled. This was recently or- dered by the governor after twenty ioe of the half a century sentence wus served. Williams is now sixty- five years old and very feeble. ‘Theodore Lacy, formerly chief clerk of the state convict bureau, who handled $2,000,000 a year of the state's revenue derived from the system of leasing convicts to coal mines and tur- pentine camps. was sentenced to ten Years in thé penitentiary for stealing $100,000 of the state's funds. Lacy is a grandson of the late United States Senator Edmund W. Pettus of Ala- bama, of Confederate fagie as 2 gen- eral and a political idol in Alabama. For a while Lacy lived high. Every- body like him. His conyival tempera- ment caused him to run short in bis accounts. Then he collected $100,000 in cash from the Montgomery banks ‘on checks signed by the president of the convict board, packed the money in suitcases and fled. for six months the state tried in valn to apprehend him and spent $10,000 in the work. Suddenly one night Lacy rolled into Montgomery in a high power motorcar, surrendered to the sheriff and an- nounced that he had returned to “face the music.” When arraigned he plead- ed that he had been promined a light sentence. possibly a pardon, if he would return and make a deal for restoration of the money. No part of it has ever been recovered. Lacy was visited in jail by a stream of prominent People and loaded down with floral tributes and table delicacies. After a sensational trial he was sentenced to ten years in the penitentiary, but an ‘appeal to the supreme court has been pending for months, and so far he has not‘served a day. ‘The case of Ervin Pope, a Negro who was convicted of murdering a white man on the testimony of a blacksmith who declared the peculiar marks in the mud from the shoe of a mule coin- eided exactly with unusual dents he made in shoeing Pope's animal, is wide- Jy cited in contrast with Lacy’s trial. Pope has been sentenced to death five times by the county court. Three times the supreme court reversed the verdicts, and once its own ruling, final- ly confirming the death sentence. Ap- Peal proceedings are again pending, and the case is going over into its fifth year. Contrasts between these cases repre- senting obscurity and poverty as well as race on the one aide and affiuence and aristocratic family connections on the other have largely increased the, force of public sentiment in its de mands for revision of the court: pro- cedure of the state and more equitable. and uniform s7stems of law enforce iment.

Miss Madree Penn and Maynard H. Jones Win Awards. New York.-The National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes announces the award of the prizes offered in the social science scholarship contest recently held by the league. There were two prizes of $50 and $25 to be awarded to the students of three of the Negro colleges who made the best standing in examination in elementary economics, elementary sociology and who presented the best book review of Devine's "Misery and Its Causes." The contestants answered ten questions in economics, five questions in sociology and presented a written review of the book. Students from the following colleges were in the contest: Virginia Union university. Howard university and Morehouse college. The contest was open to students also from Talladega college, Talladega, Ala., and Paline college. Augusta, Ga., but no students from these two institutions entered the contest. All of these colleges are affiliated with the National league and are co-operating in the effort to develop social service training for Negro youth. The first prize of $50 was awarded to Miss Madree Penn of Howard university, Washington, and the second prize of $25 to Maynard H. Jackson of Morehouse college, Atlanta, Ga. The following named persons wore the judges who awarded the prizes: Professor Jeremiah W. Jenka, New York university; Mrs. M. G. Worthington, New York School of Philanthropy, and Dr. George E. Haynes. Flint university, director of the National Lions on Urban Conditions Among Negroes. Large interest has been manifested in the contest, and the friends of the two students who have been awarded the prizes are rejoicing in their success.

If such a course was puruued you would see a mighty change in sentiment as to the Negro's interest in municipal and state government. The Dearfield settlers want roads, bridges, school houses and a range law to protect their crops from the stock of the large cattle owners. The Dearfield settlers have issues that are very plain and natural, and when the candidates of Weld county are confronted with the issues concerning the Negroes of Dearfield, there will have to be the same kind of an understanding before time to vote. The masses of the laboring Negro people are confronted with a united white labor organization which bars them from earning a living because they were born colored. These people will have to have an understanding with the legislation candidates and their county candidates before they cast their votes. The railroad train porters are confronted with full crew laws, etc., that threaten their jobs. Negro bartenders and porters have a grievance against the bartenders' union which is affiliated with the strikers' union, which has barred most all of the Negro bartenders and porters from employment in first class places. The grievance is of a very serious nature because the state is on the verge of being voted "dry" and the Negro loves retaliation, regardless of cost. The candidates have an adjustment in this grievance that must be understood before this class vote. COOK Negroes who are educating their children have a grievance because they don't feel that we, as a class of taxpayers, yet our just proportion of employment in return; and there are many other minor grievances that should be discussed by our people and the candidates questioned on these subjects, regardless of his or your party. For there is nothing in a party any more but a name; the real issue is within the privilege of the candidate, and it is your duty to work your political salvation out of the candidate as he or she is your representative after election. For that reason you should weigh the candidate for every office and know something from your own people of his or her fitness and principles to fill the office that is within your power to give. Is not that reasonable and fair? Let's wake up and get busy in time and look after our own interests in this new way of nominating and electing candidates. A LESSON IN LOYALTY. A business is a steamship bound for a port called Success. It takes a large force of men to operate this boat. Eternal vigilance is not only the price of liberty, but it is the price of every other good thing, including steamboating. To keep this steamship moving, the captain requires the assistance of hundreds of people who have a singleness of alm—one purpose—a desire to do the right thing and the best thing in order that the ship shall move steadily, surely and safely on her course. Curiously enough, there are men constantly falling overboard. These folks who fall overboard are always cautioned to keep away from dangerous places, still there are those who delight in taking risks. These individuals who fall off, and cling to floating spars, or are picked up by passing craft, usually declare that they were "discharged"—they say the captain or the mate or their comrades had it in for them. I am inclined to think that no man was ever "discharged" from a successful concern—he discharges himself. When a man quits his work—say, oiling the engine or scrubbing the deck—and leans over the side calling to outsiders, explaining what a bum boat he is aboard of, how bad the food is and what a fool there is for a captain, he gradually loosens his hold until he falls into the vast deep. Now, there is no one to blame but himself, yet probably you will have hard work to make him understand this little points. When a man is told to do a certain thing, and there leaps to his lips or even to his heart the formula, 'I wasn't hired to do that,' he is standing upon a greased plank that inclines toward the sea. When the plank is tilted to a proper angle, he goes to Davy Jones' locker, and nobody tilts the fatal plank but the man himself. And the way the plank is tilted is this: The man takes more interest in the passing craft and what is going on on land, than in doing his work on board the ship. So I repeat: No man employed by a successful concern was ever discharged. Those who fall overboard get on the greased plank and then give it a tilt to the starboard. If you are on a greased plank, you'd better get off from it, and quickly too. Loyalty is the thing!—Elbert Hub- UNION UNIVERSITY NORTH.
