The Denver Star ESTABLISHED 1848 TWENTY-SIXTH YEAR Number 49 Great Institutions for Racial Betterment Jubilant Over Liberal Sum Allowed Them Through Passage of Sundry Civil Bill and Executive Judicial Bill Amounting to $101000 and $66,000, Respectively. a number of much-needed improvements. Dr. Warfield, ever watchful of the welfare of Freedmen's Hospital, has a big card up his sleeve that will mean a ten-str ke for the institution and fill a long-felt want. Your correspondent will give the facts when they are released for public consumption. The expenses of the Hospital run over $100,000 per annum, the difference being made up in fees and allowances that come in from various sources. Freedmen's Hospital is the finest institution of its kind in the world under colored direction, and is one of the best-equipped hospitals in the country, regardless of race lines. It is worth over $750,000 and is pointed out as one of the "show-places" of the nation's capital. It is a monument to the colored man's capacity for and the management has received the highest commendation at the hands of the Secretary of the Interior, under whose department it comes, and from both Houses of Congress, who make the hand some appropriations possible. The District appropriation bill, which became a law a few days ago, authorizes $15,000 for the preparation of the plans for the new colored High School, which is to be located at First and N. streets northwest. The building is to be modern in every respect and will cost $550,000. The old M Street High School is to be converted into an industrial center, upon the completion of the new school. and will be one of the most complete institutions in the country for vocational training for colored youth. Arthur C. Newman, now principal of the Cardozo Vocational School, will be principal of the new department. The District schools are flourishing as never before under the painstaking guidance of Assistant Rosco Conkling Bruce. Washington, D. C.—Authoritative announcement is made of the engagement and approaching marriage of Ernest Davidson Washington, younger son of Dr. and Mrs. Booker I. Washington, and Miss Edith Meriwether, a handsome and accomplished young lady of this city, a member of one of the oldest and best families. It is stated that the wedding will take place at the home of the bride in this city early in Sept. Miss Meriwether is the youngest daughter of Mrs. Sara N. Meriwether, now a teacher in the public schools of Washington. Washington, D. C. - The officials of the two greatest institutions for racial benefit in this vicinity are jubilant over the liberal appropriations just allowed them through the passage of the District appropriation bill, the sundry civil bill and the legislative, executive and judicial bill, all of which carry in part the allowances of the general government for the support of these very helpful institutions. The outcome represents hard and intelligent work on the part of Prof. George William Cook secretary of Howard University, on the one hand, and Dr. William A. Warfield, surgeon in-chief of Freedmen's Hospital, on the other. The appropriation for How ard University amounts to $101,000 the same as last year. Nevertheless, a victory iscor fact that the bill as it left the House called for a $2,000 cut; but the tireless managerial genius of Howard "got busy" with the Senate and when the measure was finally agreed upon in conference, passed by both houses and signed by the President, the original $2,000 was found to the credit of the race's great school. The cost of administering Howard University is upwards of $200,000 per annum. The government furnishes something over 150 per cent of the running expenses. The remainder is made up from receipts from tuitions, dormitory and boarding fees, interest on a modern endowment, proceeds from athletic contests, concerts, etc. The most rigid economy in expenditures is required to bring the school on a firm foundation, in view of increased demands that do not always bring an increased income. The value of the Howard University plant is about $1,300,000 and the faculty numbers 125 instructors of the highest class. Freedmen's Hospital gets $66,000 from the combined bills mentioned above, Dr. Warfield is proud of the fact that this represents an increase of $6,000 over last year's allowance. This is an especial triumph, when upon all sides the demands of every government dependency were cut to the very bone, and the total appropriation of $12,000,000 carried very few increases over former years for anyone. In addition to the money allowed, Dr. Warfield was granted an automobile for official purposes, which will be a great convenience in transacting the business of the hospital. The increased appropriation will make possible Never in the history of the Grand Lodge of Masons has so much ardent enthusiasm, loyalty to the craft and devotion to the Masonic tenets and principles been demonstrated as was evinced at the 38th Annual Communication held at Pueblo, Colorado, last week.

FACING HARD CONDITIONS. There has never been a time within the 50 years of the Negroes' freedom in America when race pride and unity of effort on the part of all members of the race were in a greater demand than today. The race is now going up against conditions which it has never faced before. Having been introduced into this country as slaves, the Negro lived more than 200 years under the white man's protection. Notwithstanding he was often cruelly treated he had no responsibilities whatever resting upon him. Such clothes as he was allowed to wear and such food as he was permitted to eat; his shelter and doctor's bill were all provided by his owner. He had no mental worry. The only thing he had to do was to labor hard under the oversight of the white man and he was sure of a living. When freedom came to the colored man, he had nothing in the way of material substance with which to start life; out as a weak, ignorant and helpless race of people, he did have the sympathy of the nation North and South. Having been dispossessed of their slaves, the white people of the South started out to make the best of it, aud while they might not have been ever zealous in trying to lift the Negro into real citizenship, they placed practically no obstacles in his way. Many men and women from the North consecrated themselves to the development of the infant race, came South established schools and churches and spent their lives for and among the colored people. A little later the South began to take a deeper interest in their development. Having such favorable attitude of both North and South, made it possible for the Negro to make his unparalleled advancement. But these conditions are rapidly changing. The colored man in America cannot and should not hope to thrive in the future upon the sympathies of the white man North or South. He is being gradually left to stand upon his own merits. The northern white man is beginning to feel that the Negro as a race is getting large enough to walk, and he is gradually taking his hands off. Every year is marked by a decreasing R W. J. G. W., J.

FIVE CENTS A COPY. number of those large hearted men and women laboring among colored people. Each year finds them less disposed to make contributions for the Negro's advancement, A less sympathetic feeling is being manifested in various ways in the South, particularly in segregation ordinances that are being passed in many places in the South. Add to this the adverse effects of the great influx of foreigners to this country annually and one can get an idea of what the Negro is now facing. On the one hand the introduction of various kinds of machinery into industrial activities and on the other hand the introduction of foreign labor are forcing Negroes out of many of even the menial positions that they once held for a livelihood. Hence the race is earnestly calling for a quality of man and women which it has not heretofore produced in great numbers. The antebellum type with all due respects to them, without the discipline that heavy responsibility naturally gives, can not successfully grapple with the fierce problems of our days. The type of men and women able to thrive only by the grace and sympathies of the stronger race will not be able to survive in the future. The Negroes that present conditions are calling for and that the future is going to demand more uncompromisingly must be men and women of great strength, broad vision nerve: ingenuity and initiative. A people who can succeed, not only when conditions are favorable, but who can and will use the very obstacles in their way for stepping stones to greater achievements.—The Dallas Express. Don't Seek Sympathy Because You Are a Negro. "I do not seek or crave sympathy because I am a Negro; I do not seek or crave sympathy because I belong to an oppressed race; but I do thank God I belong to a race that has problems to solve; I thank God now that I can glory in perfecting conditions that are imperfect." So said Booker T. Washington in a recent address. We as a race are prone to seek sympathy and to constantly complain of things personal. The man or woman who whines gets nothing, not even sympathy. The world wants you to laugh, smile in the face of adversity and see how quickly it vanishes. Success brings success, look and talk prosperous even if you are not. Make a bold front fight every inch of the way and success is yours.—St. Louis Advance. According to Dr. A. J. Sloan of Omaha, tuberculosis is decimating the tribes of American Indians in all parts of the West.

NOTES OF THE ZION BAPTIST CHURCH. Twenty-fourth Avenue and Ogden St., Residence, 2356 Humboldt St. David E. Over, D. D., Minister. Interest in the Sunday Campaign prayer meetings continues. There has been a steady increase in attendance from the beginning. It is hoped that others who have not yet attended will become interested. Tuesdays and Fridays from 7:30 to 8:00 in the evening. Look up the places of prayer in the daily papers and select that meeting nearest in District 32. The summer just closing has been the most remarkable in many ways, in the history of our church. Attendance has been larger, offerings have been generous and many of our church activities have continued without a break. With the return of those away on vacation, the pastor expects the fall work to begin with an enthusiasm in keeping with this remarkable year. The Fall Rally is drawing near. Or the third Sunday in next month is the offering day. A few have delayed their pledges which we hope will be forthcoming before the first of the month. The pastor expects to be away during the first half of the month of September attending the National Convention which meets in Philadelphia, Pa. During his absence Brother Wallace will be in charge. The pastor expects the attendance to continue at the high-water mark. Mr. W. D. Wright, Jr., who was en- dorsed for the State Senate by the Denver County Assembly, desires to announce to the colored Democracy, his candidacy for the nomination on the Democratic ticket for the State Senate.

To this spiritual feast, we most cordially invite our colored pastors, with their congregations to come and share with us. To you who are not connected with any church, the invitation is equally extended. There will be a reception tent, conducted under the auspices of the 3rd Denver Seventh-Day Adventist church, to accommodate all who come. There will be no need for a basket. A lunch counter, and a dining tent will be amply fitted up, to supply all with food. Let us lay aside all denominational prejudices, and seek, a pure heart, which, in the sight of God, is of great price. J. W. OWENS, Pastor. 2917 Glenarm Place, City.

Foreign Mission Body Meets in Raleigh, N. C., Sept. 2. Raleigh, N. C.-Great preparations are being made for the annual session of the Lott Carey foreign mission convention, which convenes in First Baptist church in this city Wednesday, Sept. 2. Besides hearing addresses from prominent church workers, the convention will endeavor to raise $10,000 with which to continue the successful missionary and educational work that it is now carrying on in West Africa. A school and a mission house is now being erected in the interior of Monrovia, and it is expected that it will be ready for occupancy within a few months. The following from the Rev. W. H. Thomas to the Rev. Dr. W. M. Alexander of Baltimore, corresponding secretary of the convention, gives a slight idea of the work being done under the auspices of the convention. Dr. Thomas says: "The Rev. J. O. Hayes is faithfully assisting in the new work, and the Rev. G. D. Gayle is looking after the making of cement blocks for the new building. Without them we would find it difficult to move along with the work as successfully as we are. It takes much time and patience to build in this country, where there are no railroads and practically no other kind of roads. Only those who have had the actual experience of erecting buildings in Africa can know the difficulties attached to such work. The Rev. C. C. Boone is our medical missionary." Among the features of the session here will be the annual address of the president, the Rev. C. S. Brown of Winston-Salem, N. C., and a detailed report by Dr. Alexander, the corresponding secretary, on the work done and the needs of the convention. The convention was organized sixteen years ago and has raised over $50,000 for missionary and educational work in west Africa. A large part of the burden of the work has fallen upon the shoulders of the Rev. Dr. Alexander, who has filled the office of corresponding secretary since the convention was organized. The present officers of the convention are: President, C. S. Brown, D. D.; P. REV. WILLIAM M. ALEXANDER. vice presidents—Virginia, H. L. Barco, D. D.; District of Columbia, W. J. Howard, D. D.; Pennsylvania, O. S. Simms, D. D.; Maryland, Rev. A. Balls; New Jersey, Rev. E. D. Samuels; Tennessee, C. H. Johnson, D. D; North Carolina, Dr. W. T. Coleman; New York, W. M. Moss, D. D.; recording secretary, A. W. Pegues, Ph. D.; corresponding secretary, W. M. Alexander, D. D.; statistician, G. E. Reil, D. D.; auditor, A. A. Graham, D. D; treasurer, Rev J. H. Hughes. The executive board consists of A. Binga, D.; W. T. Johnson, D. D.; W. H. Stokes. D. D.; J. E. Jones, D. D.; Brother T. C. Walker, Rev. M. C. Ruz, Z. D. Lewis, D. D.; Dr. A. M. Moore, N. F.

Branch Work of National Association. The Portland (Ore.) branch of the National Association For the Advancement of Colored People is stirring up much interest in the work among both the colored and white people in Portland. The branch has held two very profitable meetings during the month of August. One of the judges of the circuit court has been invited to deliver the principal address at the public meeting to be held the latter part of August. The branch recently received a very encouraging letter from Mru. Nettle J. Asberry, organizer, with headquarters at Tacoma, Wash. Important Meeting of the Baptists.

Members of Progressive Secret Fraternity Called Upon to Show Appreciation For Work of Dr. James E. Mills, Through Whose Statesmanlike Efforts the Order Was Reunited. Norfolk, Va.—As the time approaches for the great Elks' convention, which meets in this city the latter part of this month, speculation is very pronounced as to the future policies of the order. As we look back over the fourteen or fifteen years of the activities that confronted the Negro Elk relative to his vital existence and compare them with the efforts of the present regime we are forced to admit that the personality of Dr. James E. Mills, past grand exalted ruler, stands out in bold relief as a principal factor in furthering the progress of this order. It is admitted that during his regime consolidation was accomplished and that the same is an acknowledged fact throughout the brotherhood. That the organization needs a man at its head well versed in its methods, one who can give to the order every function that pertains to its ritualistic workings, is an urgent demand, and as we compare the past with the present and view the many inactive lodges, numbering at least forty, it is essential that a man who is willing to work along these lines and bring in these lodges is the demand of the order, and Dr. Mills is at this time the one person to put this order in its rightful attitude as consistent with its principles. For fifteen years this organisation has been freighted with external and internal troubles, due to the attacks M. DR. JAMES R. MILLA from without and the recalcitrant forces within. Nevertheless the best results were obtained when Mills and Athkins swung into line, forming the long union desired, and settling through the courts the rights as to the copyright and who is entitled thereto. The final adjustment of this issue certainly was due to the untiring efforts of Past Grand Exalted Ruler Mills and his forces, and the prominent and effective organization of the Antlered Herd, as composed in tidewater Virginia, should be honored with this position there can be no doubt. To serve its best interest it is more than urgent that they at this time act together and work for the interest that best serves for the further and substantial progress of this order. No order can succeed unless it is headed by capable, intelligent and active leadership, one well versed in the affairs of that which he seeks to serve. In looking over the vast number of able men it goes without contradiction that Dr. Mills is the man to head the organization, and from all indications he will be given the rights of government, and once more the magnificent array of young men of this organization will have made its very best selection, and at the same time new energies will be injected into the order. That Dr. Atkins is in accord with Dr. Mills is well known, as their endearing friendship under any condition has always been adamant for years, for no better confidence was manifested as to the same than was advanced in the settlement of the differences between the Afro-American Elks of this country. As an organizer Past Grand Exalted Ruler Mills is known as the best, for when we recall the fact that from one lodge he made the order to sixty-five lodges throughout this country it is fitting evidence as to his ability to work. Mills for grand exalted ruler—at this time gratitude and honor demand it, aside from his natural ability for leadership. Virginia to Hold National Exposition. The promoters of the proposed national exposition to be held at Fort Lee, not far from Richmond, Va., in 1915 are making considerable progress in getting their plans before the country. Congress has voted an appropriation of $201,000 to be used in promoting the project to show the progress of the released race during fifty years of freedom. The Denver Star CHAS. S. MUSE, Editor. G.

Dear Fellow Comrades: The preliminary call for the seventh annual meeting of the National Independent Political League has already been published in several issues of the Guardian and other of our papers. The call, however, was issued before the exact date and place for the meeting could be determined. Now that it is settled as to when and where we shall convene, it remains only to announce the same and to add a brief word of earnest appeal to our people in all sections of the United States to awake and to get together in self-defense of their own most vital civil, social and political interests. Meeting Sept. 7,9,1914,Bethel Church, New York City. We feel peculiarly fortunate in being able to announce that the seventh annual meeting of the N. I. P. L. is to be held in New York City, in the new edifice of the Bethel A. M. E Church, of which the Rev. B. W. Arnett, D. D., is pastor. We are to meet on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of the 7th, 8th and 9th, just previous to the great National Baptist convention to be held in the city of Philadelphia. The determined purpose of the League is to assist in leading our Negro-American population out of political bondage, to wage perpetual and eternal war against any and all kinds of segregation based on race or color, and to restore the federal franchise to our oppressed brethren in the southern states. These needed reforms cannot, we believe, be successfully accomplished for us by our friends of other races. While we appreciate their interest and welcome their assistance, we know that "They who would be free must themselves strike the blow." We must, as a fundamental factor in the struggle, produce and follow our own leaders, and we must get together and work and fight for ourselves or we can never be free. Do this, our necessary part. Kill the Idea We are a Child Race. At any necessary cost and sacrifice we must educate the masses of our people to become an independent, race loving, people. The impressoin that has been deliberately built up and published world wide that we are a child race, and, therefore, are not to be dealt with as with other races, is a false claim that we must, as people, blow to atoms. This false impression has been studiously disseminated throughout this and other civilized countries, taken up and expounded by teachers, editors and politicians everywhere. Such damage in impressions of our people should begin to stir us to action. Aii Self-Respecting Men, and Women of Color. We therefore call upon, not only the members of the League, but upon all self-respecting men and women of color to co-operate and join with us in our struggle for equal civil, social and political rights as American citizens. Come to our annual meeting, join the League, or give it your moral and financial support. Let all who read this call do all within their power to start the ball rolling in their respective communities, form local committees, organize branch leagues, plan to attend the meeting, assist financially and in every other way possible. Let all churches, lodges, civic, literary and equal rights societies send delegates and let us demonstrate to the world that we are determined to become American free men. Yours for freedom, BYRON GUNNER, Pres. What effects the Colorado labor situation today and Negro will eventually effect the Negro in Wyoming and New Mexico, where Negroes work in the mines. Mr. Negro, how many times have you been made to feel proud of the homes you have bought through working in the mines, where you receive decent pay Will you or your brother throw away this opportunity, by refusing, neglecting, failing to register.

The miners demanded that their Union be recognized in the strike, as the first consideration. The question of the official recognition of any labor organization or labor union by any employer or employers of labor is a question not reached or controlled by law, but must be mutually desired by both employer and employee to become a recognized reality. In other words, if employers do not desire to recognize a labor union as an organization in the employment of members of that union, there is no law upon the statute books which can or will compel them to do so. The only conclusion that any reasonable and fair man can logically arrive at, is that the first demand of the unions recognition is one to be mutually agreed upon by employer and employee. Understand us to also say that if any individual workman in the employ of any coal mine owners desire to belong to a union they have a perfect right to do, under our laws and this right of the workmen should be recognized and upheld and not objected to, by any employer of labor. The right of the United Mine Workers of America to operate as a union in this state, as long as they are a legal corporation should be recognized. But when this organization is against the Negro every inch of it, when they are plotting to rob your wife and my wife, your child and my child, and selfishly and boastingly say, by their actions, that because of my race and color, I am to be preferred and my family is to be first considered. I say as a race man and race woman who belong to the proscribed class, that we cannot be in favor of any such unjust union. We therefore must stand with those who offer us a chance to live, grow, flourish and honorably cherish our families, beautify our homes and become good citizens. To us the recognition of the union meant and means starvation and injustice to the Negro and the demand was rightfully refused. SINK OR SWIM. SURVIVE OR PERI- ISH. THE NEGROE'S GREAT CHANCE TO KILL RACE DISCRIMINATION. Race Must do Service by Registering. We have urged Negroes to register in this campaign for the purpose of exercising their political franchise and providing a place for themselves and families in Colorado, as well as for the further purpose of ultimately restoring peace and confidence both through its citizens and neighbors to Colorado's fair name. In this activity they can and shall play a very valuable part. Big, broadminded and large hearted men must be elected to the legislature and the safe and sane legislation will of necessity follow the election. A good, capable and safe governor who will develop Colorado first, before any society or organization, must be given the reins of powcourageous Attorney-General who will enforce the law must be chosen from the ranks of the parties. Such men for such high and important positions of trust and responsibility, the Negro must assist in their selection. The Negro must never forget the business interests of this state, regardless of any "slickly sentimentality or grievances," which mean nothing. In this election is interwoep the Negroes future welfare and chance for a living in this state, whether anarchy and ruin or whether real tangible law and order shall rule, which? Whether labor unions or capable and sound business men whose very lives and souls and interests are all tied up and linked together in this state and have been for years—whether these representative and responsible men should employ whoever they please, whenever they please, etc., or maintain an open shop for the employment of all. Shall the man who earns and gets his pay dictate to the man who does the paying? Race hate, race prejudice and discrimination begins in the Unions and have extended down until they will tackle the public utilities next. Be not misled involved in this election, is the right of your own color, the Jap and all colors to earn a fair and honest dollar. Brothers and sisters in black, register now for your own sakes er. A well qualified and fearless and for the sake of the race. Vote in the primaries and there show your selection by showing your strength. Again for God's sake and your children's sake register. No, register, No. Vote. --- Results of Co-operative Effort in Nashville, Tenn. Local Business League as the Precursor of Wonderful Commercial Advance Among the Colored People in Tennessee Capital—Board of Trade Also a Great Tower of Strength. By RALPH W. TYLER. Nashville, Tenn.—There is a delightful aroma of culture pervading this Fiskalized city that is equaled only by the traditional hospitality of its citizens. I refer especially to the colored citizens. The atmosphere which dear old Fisk university has germinated here has produced some splendid men and women and invigorated activity. Nashville has a powerful lever for business progress among our people in its Negro board of trade, which evolved from its Negro Business league. I have previously stated that in every city I have visited where there exists a strong, active Negro business organization there one finds business progress. The Negro board of trade here, of which that most efficient business man, J. C. Napler, is president, is doing much for the colored people of this city. The Negroes of this city have $7,000,000 in real estate on the tax books in their name. Wonderful! They have $8,000,000 in cash on deposit in the local banks. Marvelous! They have two banks that are being efficiently conducted, which shows that the Negro, as a promoter of financial institutions, is no nondescript. The Dime Savings bank, of which Dr. R. H. Boyd is president and J. C. Napier cashier and guiding genius, is the oldest, and so wisely has it been conducted that were it to go into voluntary liquidation today it could pay depositors dollar for dollar and pay stockholders, including the 67 per cent dividends already paid. $1.95 for every dollar invested in its stock. Nashville has a Negro owned cemetery which, for size, beauty and the care taken of it, surpasses anything of its kind in the country. It has a pleasure park, purchased, improved and conducted by Preston Taylor, that has no counterpart in the country as to area, natural beauty, amusements and character of its buildings. Nashville is the home of the Baptist Publishing House, that wonderfully systematized plant, giving employment to 150 young colored men and women, which was founded by Dr. R. H. Boyd. It is also the home of the A. M. E. Publishing House, whose success has been made secure by Ira T. Bryant's efficient management. The largest nursery and horticulture plant in this city is the one owned and long conducted by Joe Brown and known far and wide as the Lischy nursery and greenhouses. The three days spent in this city carefully investigating every phase of Negro life, especially in business, convinced me that the 40,000 of our people in this city have registered a high water mark of business, of economical success equaled by but few communities and surpassed by none. Here you will find the race actively and successfully engaged as manufacturers, printers, publishers, furniture dealers, electricians, bankers, grocers, real estate agents, merchandising transfer, theatrical, architects, etc. Taken as a whole, this is a community of Negroes who are strongly religious, but who, as Dr. Boyd has urged, have put business into their religion. The religious intensity of the people here is evidenced by the fact that there are fifty-two Baptist, thirty-seven A. M. B., three Presbyterian, three Congregational, one Catholic, one Church of God, three Christian, one United Brethren and one Seventh Day Adventist churches, a total of 102 churches. There are thirteen public schools and five colleges, and these employ 147 teachers and professors. Sixty-two physicians preserve the health of the community, eight dentists look after the care of the community's teeth, and civil and ISSAC N.

Exclusive of the two banks there are twenty-five corporations in this city under Negro control. It would be pretty hard for any community, however, under the spur of leadership of such men as J. C. Napier, Dr. R. H. Boyd, Preston Taylor, Henry Allen Boyd, A. N. Johnson and Ira T. Bryant, with others, not to make great advance along all lines of helpful endeavor. A Negro population that can boast of possessing real estate to the value of $7,000,000 and cash in bank to the amount of $3,000,000 needs no other recommendation to convince the world that it is a desirable class or that the race is making commendable progress. Some of the other Negroes who are contributing most effectively to business progress of the race in this city are W. T. Hightower, W. D. Rucker, A. S. Rucker, W. G. Hyms, William H. McGarvick, Felix White, Eugene Price, H. S. Morton and Assistant Cashier Langston of the Dime Savings bank. As previously stated, the Negro board of trade, as an organization and each member individually, is a powerful lever for business progress of the race here in Nashville. AFFAIRS AT WILBERFORCE. Trustees' Resolution Would Halt Schoel's Progress if Made Effective. The writer of "Echoes From My Den," in a recent issue of the Southern Christian Recorder, makes some very broad statements in criticism of the board of trustees of the Wilberforce, O., university, the work of the bishops and presiding elders of the A. M. E. church and other men and matters pertaining to the management and work of this noted school. If what the writer of "Echoes From My Den" says is true, then the great A. M. E. church should call a halt on those who presume to dictate the policy of Wilberforce university, especially that part which has to do with the duties of the president in personally using his influence in raising funds for the institution's needs and the management of the program for the commencement season at Wilberforce. In speaking of President William S. Scarborough, under whose able administration the school has greatly increased its usefulness, enlarged its plant, put up splendid new buildings, and gained wide popularity among the leading educational institutions of the country, the writer of "Echoes From My Den," in part, says: "But I must tell you what they did for Mr. Scarborough. Why, they actually lost sight of that magnificent building in their effort to make him tell where he got all the money from and from whom he got it and forbade him getting any more if he didn't tell who gave it to him. And then they went a step farther. They passed a resolution forbidding the president from contracting any debt, however small, in the name of the institution. In other words, they 'resoluted' all the president's responsibility and prestige away and attempted to publish the same to the world." If the above is true and if it were put into practice at Wilberforce or any other school of the A. M. E. denomination it would paralyze the whole educational system of the church. Professor Scarborough never was a figurehead for any institution or set of men, and those who know him well may be sure that he is able to take care of himself and the interest of Wilberforce university notwithstanding the sweeping statements made by the author of "Echoes From My Den." The A. M. E. church is not likely to allow its institutions of whatever kind to retrograde through interference from any source. What the race needs in all departments of its activities in church, school and other agencies for uplift is competent. educated men and women who are willing to put the cause they represent forward instead of themselves. Until such a course is taken we cannot expect the best results from our efforts to achieve success along any line. Wilberforce university is progressive. It has a progressive president and an able faculty. Its students and graduates are to be found in all sections of the country among those of the race who are aiming high and among the leaders of thought and 4.

The greatest event that has occured this year out in Ellirya was the wedding of Miss Mildred Blanche Fisher to Mr. James R. Mason, on Tuesday, June 13th. There was only a few to witness the affair. The house was beautifully decorated and the bride also was beautifully gowned. On Friday evening, August 7th, Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Fisher gave a reception in honor of the newlyweds, while Mrs. Hattle Hickman highly entertained with Miss Beatrice Thrashly at the piano. String music was also furnished by Mr. Frank Taylor and Co. An enjoyable time was had and all of the guests wishing Mr. and Mrs. Mason much success through life. M.

Wood River Association Preparing For Big Celebration at Alton, Ill. Alton, Ill.-The celebration, of the seventy-fifth anniversary of the Wood River Baptist association in Alton Sept. 1 and continuing through the week is one of the most important events in the religious activities of the race in this section of the country for the early fall season. The Wood River Baptist association is the oldest Baptist association in the country, and the selection of Alton for the celebration is important because it was here Owen Lovejoy had his printing press, which was destroyed because he dared to advocate the abolition of slavery. This will give the people an opportunity to visit Lovejoy's monument and to learn something more of his work for the freedom of the colored people. The association is presided over by Rev. H. H. De Witt of Jacksonville, Ill., and Rev. E. H. Borden of East St. Louis is the corresponding secretary. Some of the leading preachers in the state belong to the association, and the executive committee has been careful to select some of the best speakers in the state to deliver addresses, among whom will be some of our prominent women. Governor Dunne has been invited and has accepted the invitation to deliver a special address. It will be the first time in the history of the association that the governor of the state has delivered a special address. A big crowd is expected on this occasion. There will be a Washington day, at which time Dr. Booker T. Washington, the wizard of the Tuskegee (Ala.) institute, is to speak. A parade will be held on this occasion by the Sunday school children and boy scouts. Children from St. Louis and surrounding towns will be present and take part in the parade. The president of the national Baptist convention, Dr. E. C. Morris of Helena, Ark., is to speak on national Baptist convention day, and on the same day Miss Nannie H. Burroughs, one of the most interesting characters in the race, will deliver an address. There are many other prominent educators and ministers to speak during the week. Rev. G. C. Mason, chairman of the local committee and pastor of the church where the celebration is to be held, says that the people are prepared to entertain 2,000 delegates and visitors and even more if they should come. "Alton has never had a real large convention among our people," he said. "and we are going to show the people what we can do. Of course we will be assisted by all the people of all the churches in Alton. We shall be glad to have them take an active part with us. Large delegations are expected from various points in Missouri." ROYAL CIRCLE OF FRIENDS TO HOLD ANNUAL MEETING Grand Lodge Convenes at Pine Bluff, Ark., Tuesday, Sept. 1. Pine Bluff, Ark.-Great preparation is being made here for the annual session of the grand lodge of the Royal Circle of Friends, which meets in this city on Tuesday, Sept. 1. This will bring to Pine Bluff perhaps the largest crowd of men and women that has ever assembled here in any kind of convention. The Royal Circle of Friends is one of the strongest organizations in the country among the members of the race and has attracted much attention. It was organized by R. A. Williams, M. D.; J. Williams, M. D., and Mrs. Lulu Blount. It is the most modern and progressive organization in the race and has a membership of 30,000 scattered in seven states and continues to grow. In the session will be some of the most noted men and women of the race present from all parts of the country. The grand lodge will be composed of doctors, lawyers, merchants, bankers, artists, stenographers, college presidents, editors, professors, teachers, ministers—in fact, every line of business, trade, profession or labor followed by members of the race will be represented at the session. The campus and buildings of Branch Normal college have been selected, and in the uniform ranks together with five circle bands will be in camp on the college campus. This organization holds up to the race a great future in that it is making places for the young men and women, and at the same time encouraging the boys and girls to educate themselves. It teaches the doctrine of self help, industry, honesty and thrift, and the man or woman who would eat bread or wear clothes must earn them or get out of the way. Dr. R. A. Williams, the president, is one of the leading men of the race in this country and is a successful physician. From his youth he has had a desire to do something for his race, and as a result comes the Royal Circle of Friends. The order publishes a good weekly paper. Already $200,000 have been paid out on death claims, and the order has now over $60,000, which is considered a good showing. New circles are being formed rapidly and an effort is being made to report not less than 75,000 members at the session Sept. 1. There will be a number of social features connected with the approaching session. The street parade and drill will attract much attention, and several prominent men will deliver instructive addresses. The image provided is too blurry to accurately recognize any text or graphics.

BRAY Passing of Old Regime Marked by the Adoption of a Resolution Which Makes the Office of Grand Chancellor a Situated Position—Activity of the Younger Members. New York.—The twenty-fifth annual session of the grand lodge, Knights of Pythias, state of New York, held recently at Carlibean hall in this city, was the most largely attended session in many years. Great interest was manifested in its proceedings from the opening day until the end of the three days' session. Sir Lee Crawford, grand chancellor, presided. A The credentials committee reported the following subordinate lodges which were represented by regularly elected delegates: Majestic, Progressive, Vernon, Washington, Ben-Hur, Excelsior, Arcturus, Pilgrim and Emmanuel, all of this city and Brooklyn, Lincoln. A. SIR LEE CRAWFORD. Douglas, J. A. Walker. Wilmore. Night- tangale and Zion of Westchester county, Charles Sumner of Syracuse and Da- mon of Utica. There were also eight other lodges represented. The part chancellor's degree was conferred upon twenty-six sir knights, the largest num- ber to receive this degree at one time in the history of the organization. The annual report of Grand Chancellor Crawford was listened to with great interest throughout its reading. When the grand chancellor had concluded his reading one of the most remarkable demonstrations ever witnessed in the grand lodge took place. Every man was instantly on his feet cheering Sir Crawford. For fully three minutes this continued. It was a grand ovation and well merited, for every one present agreed that his report was the most complete and encouraging resume of the progress of the order for one year that was ever presented to the grand lodge in this jurisdiction. This session marked the transition from the "old grand lodge," dominated for years by a small group of men of the old school, who were satisfied to let the "order" drift along in the same old rut so long as they were at the helm, to the "new grand lodge," ruled by the younger and more progressive set of sir knights, who were determined to revolutionize things and put new life into the order from one end of the state to the other. This young element was led and directed in the fight by that successful organizer from Westchester county. N. Y., Sir Paul H. Bray of Lincoln, No. 17, Yonkers. Among the most important and radical steps taken was the passage of the resolution offered by Sir Paul H. Bray placing the grand chancellor on an annual salary sufficient to enable him to devote his entire time and service to building up the order. The "reformers" felt that the time had arrived to place the Pythian order on a business basis in order that it might take on new life and grow rapidly. The following officers were elected for the ensuing term: Sir Lee Crawford, grand chancellor; Sir Adolph Howell of New York city, grand vice chancellor; Sir James L. Pinn of Syracuse, grand prelate; Sir D. A. Agys of New York city, grand keeper of records and seals; Sir William H. McFarland of Brooklyn, grand master of the exchequer; Sir John R. Hoyt, grand secretary of reserve fund department; Sir P. W. Jones of New York, treasurer reserve fund department; Sir C. P. McLendon of New Rochelle, grand medical registrar; Sir E. Richardson of New York, grand lecturer; Sir J. R. Harvey of Mount Vernon, grand marshal; Sir W. H. Smith of New York city, grand lodge attorney; Sir Paul H. Bray of Konkers, past grand chancellor; Sir F. F. Peresett of Utica, supreme representative; Sir Wilfred H. Smith, supreme representative to fill unexpired term of Sir H. Leigh Jones; Sir D. R. Johnson, Brooklyn, grand master at arms; Sir William Frohman, grand insurer guard; Sir B. F. Hutchings, grand outer guard; Sir Samuel J. Davis of New Rochelle, grand trustee.

GEO. W. ALLEN, THE PEOPLE'S FRIEND. 1. Geo. W. Allen, the present district judge of division one of the city and county of Denver, is a fair and square man all the way around, all the time, and upon each and every occasion. He has had more experience than any other judge upon the bench, he having served the people about twenty years. He knows Colorado and her various conditions—an erudite, painstaking judge who at once gets at the kernel of every law suit. His various labor decisions, pure food decisions, show him to be a friend of the poor man. His scale of justice never looks up to see the color of a man's skin, nor the texture of his hair, nor attempts to ascertain his religion or race, nor his financial condition before it operates. His past actions justify you voting for him in the primaries. Vote for your friend.—Adv. T. D. Foster A MAN WITH THE PUSH THE MAYOR OF BROOKLYN Candidate For Democrat Nomination Resolution unanimously passed at Teller County Democratic Assembly July 25, 1914: To the Democratic voters of Colorado we heartily commend T. D. Foster in his candidacy for the nomination for state auditor. During his many years' residence in Teller county he has proven his worthiness as a citizen, a high standing as a business man and a splendid capability as a public official. He has the unqualified confidence and respect of the citizens of Teller county. FOSTER FOR STATE AUDITOR. The friends of T. D. Foster of Victor, in this county and throughout the state, have determined to push him as candidate for state auditor before the Democratic assembly and the primaries. Mr. Foster has resided in the Cripple Creek district for eighteen years and has always been prominent in politics and as a business man. Starting as a plain miner, he has by fidelity and application become one of the leading business men of Teller county. For years, as alderman of the city of Victor, he was always regarded as the financial safeguard of the city. Mr. Foster served two terms as county assessor, in which position he made a most enviable record. During all that time he was chairman of the State Association of County Assessors, to which position he was elected soon after becoming county assessor. He soon became known throughout the state as an authority on taxation and it is due to his efforts. more than those of any other man in Colorado, that scientific taxation is so prominent in the public mind. Indeed, legislative committees, as well as two governors of the state, have largely rolled on him for advice in this particular. He is an excellent accountant, as well as a business man of high order, and is superbly qualified to discharge the duties of state auditor. The legislature of 1913 selected Mr. Foster as one of a committee of three to audit the books of the state auditor, and treasurer, and the report of this committee is said to be the most complete and exhaustive of its kind. His activities in behalf of the Democratic party and as a leading tax authority have given him a wide and popular acquaintance throughout the state. Genial, popular, competent and deserving, his friends predict his nomination and election—Cripple Creek Times, June 12, 1914—Adv. If you have moved, it is then necessary for you to register and change to your NEW address. IF you did not vote at the last election, you must register. The registration books in the basement of the Court House are open from Aug. 10th until Sept. 3rd. We urge all men and women who are eligible to vote at the primaries and election, to register early. M. Rhoady Kenehan CANDIDATE FOR State Treasurer The Dearfield Agency is now under the management of The Colored American Loan & Realty Co., who will make an honest effort to close out the Dearfield townsite and settlement in one year from date of July 4, 1914, the time limit, according to contract, to place every lot and tract in the colony with colored people. But if we find that it cannot be sold to colored people by that time, then we shall have to open it for sale to anyone who may desire to purchase, regardless of race. The transfer of the agency to the above named company was made because of the pressing demand made upon Mr. O. T. Jackson that takes all of his time at the Capitol. We wish to establish in this very desirable district a creditable Negro settlement that shall be governed by themselves exclusively. This land is located in one of the most fertile valleys of the state, and is provided with excellent opportunities in the way of railroads, water, soil and climatic conditions. This is an excellent opportunity to demonstrate our ability in handling municipal affairs, as well as to lend a helping hand in the development of the state. Mr. Harris, the state land appraiser, just returned from the settlement with a most excellent report of the progress that is being made by the farmers in general. Now is your time to buy, as this land will never be any cheaper. WE COLLECT FOR YOU.
