Malden, Mass., — Cyrus Byrd, aged 22, a negro, living at 136 Havard street, was discharged by Judge Bruce in District Courts today on five charges of breaking, entering and larceny. All five complainant claimed Byrd was the man who had entered their respective apartments early on the morning of Aug. 7 and stolen cash amounting to $70. In rendering his decision Judge Bruce expressed the opinion that identification of the complainants was uncertain by saying; "Witness are very often too willing to identify a man when he is held by the police." Howard Edison, Julian Davis, and William Hill testified that they played whist with Byrd in the latter's house during the time the larcenies took place. Hill said that when the game broke up he retired with Byrd, and neither knew anything of the trouble until Byrd was awakened by the police. President Wilson has promoted Richard Green, Colored, from messenger to clerk in the classified executive civil service of the Treasury Department for "especially meritorious service." Raleigh, N. C., Aug. 20. Our city is alive with excitement in anticipation of the Grand National Convention of Physicians, Dentists and Pharmacists which will be held here Aug. 25, 26 and 27. We are expecting visitors from every State. Special preparation along social lines are being made for this occasion. Accomodations for delegates as well as visiting ladies and gentlemen have bee narranged as Shaw University at the rate of $1.50 per day. The social affairs to be accorded the guests under the supervision of the Women's Department, are lawn fetes, roof garden parties, Japanese reception outings, trolley rides sight seeing tours, picnics, informals and hay rides. --- The eleventh annual session of the National Association of Teachers in the Colored Schools recently held in Savannah, Ga., was perhaps the most successful meeting during its organization. Twenty states were represented by some af the best men and women of each state. The program full of some of the most vital topics and was treated by men and women who were thoroughly acquainted with each specific phase of education. Major R. R. Wright and his local committee carried out their program without a single variation. The trolley ride on Friday, the elaborate banquet on Friday night, and the boat to Beaufort were all most enjoyable affairs, and were with out an item of expense to the delegates. The Beaufort citizens did credit to themselves by their reception and the elaborate shore dinner. Large local audiences, too large to be accommodated, thronged the meeting places at every session. The Mayor, in his welcome address sounded clarion note for justice and equal opportunities for every man without regard to race. Commissioner of Education, Hon. P. P. Claxton, who gave the closing address on Sunday afternoon, spoke to an audience, not only packing the theater, but backed across the side walks and street. Mr. Claxton although he had traveled several hundred miles and landed in Savannah just in time to give the address, was ready, and spoke out of the depths of his experience and learning. He contended for the education of all people. His address was most inspiring, and alone would have more than repaid any efforts to attend this meeting, Segregation The nation-wide protest against the segregation of the Negroes, which is being conducted by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and the Negro press is beginning to realize concrete results in an awakened sense of justice towards the Negro on the part of some of the white newspapers.

DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, AUG. 29, 1914 Native African Soldiers Fighting for France Against Germany-Turcos of Algeria Led French Advance Into Alsace-Lorraine-Repulsed Germans, Who Were Irate Because Beaten by Colored Men-One German Military Authority Discredited These Blacks, But Another Advised the German Fleet to Prevent Them Being Transported by France. Paris, France, Aug. 27, 1914.—Detachments of the famous Turcos, or native troops from the French colony of Algeria penetrated Upper Alsace today. The possession by France of "The Black Legions" has long rankled in Germany's mind and has been a factor in the eternal squabbles of years' standing between the two countries. While the Berlin government has never been very successful in Germanizing Africa, France, on the contrary, has recruited her armies from the Sahara and has made fearless soldiers from Algerian mercenaries. There are no better soldiers in their own way than the black and brown men, who, serving under the tricolor, have penetrated Upper Alsace. When fighting in their own country these men are accompanied by their wives, who do the cooking, nurse the wounded and bring cases of cartridges to their husbands on the firing line. The Turcos are almost constantly on active service in southern Algerian provinces against the roving tribes of Arab horsemen who continually harass the French troops. Half their officers are Frenchmen, the other half rise from the ranks of the natives. They are remarkable sharpshooters. Long ago the French government was convinced that the Turcos had the necessary military qualifications and turned to them to strengthen her forces. Today France can call upon some twenty thousand of these native troopers. It has been known for several years that France would use her black soldiers wherever it was necessary to defend her interests or honor. The Turcos have had considerable to do with the Franco-German troubles. A year ago General Von Berhardi, one of Germany's most prominent military journalists and a dictator of that country's military policy, acknowledged that France had strong reserves in the dark races of Africa. But with the acknowledgement he added: "Her arm there is by no means ready for a struggle with us." General Berhardi rather despises the black contingents. Another German officer of distinction, General Alfred Brenzig, has insisted in his writings upon the necessity of maintaining in the Mediterranean a strong fleet of German warships to intercept the North African troop ships which, supposedly, are to bring contingents to support France in war against her European foes. This warrior told Germany only last year: "We must have a strong fleet in the Mediterranean. The French military law of three years constitutes a distinct menace of war. Sooner or later we may expect an explosion in France whose results will be a war of revenge against Germany. The aim of our military authorities should be to prevent the transport of two corps of the army, 65,000 men, from Africa to France. The French have no ship of war which can compete with ours. France could not therefore destroy our naval divisions in the Mediterranean, which of course would be supported by the swift warships of Italy. Neither could the French fleet be depended upon for defending the transport from Africa. The transfer of the African regiments to France would be a slow process, and it is not likely that more than fractions of the two army corps could be landed in France. Captures Sprint Events. Howard P. Drew of the University of Southern California, wearing the colors of the Los Angeles A.C., and the acknowledged sprint king of this country, was the star performer at the athletic carnival held by St. Bartholomew's Church of Cambridge at the Caledonia Grove yesterday. The colored flier took the 100 and 220 from scratch. With the cream of the local sprinters competing at Manchester and South Framingham, the Springfield speed merchant had little trouble overtaking the field. The meet was conducted with speed with William C. Matthews, the former Harvard athlete, in charge. The games attracted a big crowd. Drew was credited with 94-5 seconds for the hundred, but the Caledonian track has never been properly measured and is considered many feet shorter than 100 in the dash line. The performances in the other events were only ordinary. The big event of the day outside of Drew's appearance was the relay race between the Excelsiors and the Gladiators, which the former won through the clever running of John Shelburne, the English High athlete. MUSKOGEE HOST OF BUSINESS MEN National Negro Business League Holds Big Meeting. President Booker T. Washington's Annual Address Is Crowning Event of First Day's Program at Fifteenth Annual Meeting—Time to Inaugurate New Policy, He Says. Muskogee, Okla.—The fifteenth annual meeting of the National Negro Business league was held in this city at Convention hall from Wednesday, Aug. 19, to Friday, Aug. 21, inclusive. The sessions were attended by delegates from local business leagues from all sections of the country. The program bristled with interest throughout the meetings as those who took part outlined their struggles and achievements in the various lines of business. The climax of the first day's program was the Wednesday evening session, when Dr. Booker T. Washington, president of the league, delivered his annual address. He, in part, said: "Throughout the world ten millions and more of black people in the United States are being observed and studied in a larger measure than is true of any similar group of black people in existence or perhaps that has ever existed. People from all parts of the world interested in the civilization of black people are coming to the United States to study the condition and the progress of the American Negro; for, after all is said, if there is any place where the Negro has a chance to show his mettle it is right here in the United States. "For this reason, as well as for the sake of ourselves, it is a matter of extreme importance that we not disappoint ourselves nor those who are studying and observing us. Within the fifty years of our freedom and even before physical freedom came great and almost marvelous progress has been made, but we must not rest upon the past. We must continue to go forward. "Before beginning the body of my remarks there are a few simple but fundamental things to which I wish to direct the special attention of each local league. These things I ask in order that the usefulness of the league may be still further felt among the 10,000,000 of our people. "First of all, do not fritter away too much time in your meeting in technicalities known as parliamentary rules. "Second.-Let each local league study the condition and needs of our people in its community and devote itself to doing that which will promote the commercial, industrial, educational, professional and moral life of our race in that community. "Third.-Have a regular time of meeting and always have a meeting at that time. "Fourth.-Strive to have a regular place of meeting, one that shall be attractive and convenient. "Fifth.-Have for each meeting a carefully arranged program that shall strike at some definite thing. A general program means little. Serving refreshments often helps. "Sixth.-Each local league should strive to gather into its membership every man and woman who is interested in any kind of honorable business, no matter how humble that business may appear to be. "Seventh.-Each league should have for one of its objects the bringing of the white man, by whose side we live, into friendly and sympathetic contact with the progress of the race. One way to do this is to invite successfully white men to visit and speak to the local leagues. The white man will help, and we will be helped. "I believe that the time has come when we as a race should begin preparing to enter upon a new policy and a new program. In plain but in emphatic words I want to suggest whether the time has not come when we should get off the defensive in things that concern us, present and future and begin to inaugurate everywhere an aggressive and constructive progressive policy in business, industry, education, moral and religious life and in our conduct generally. We must follow the teachings of the Master, when he said, 'Overcome evil with good.' "A general, however able, who contents himself with merely holding the territory that he occupies or merely devotes himself to defending himself against the assaults of the enemy is not the general who gains renown for genuine leadership or gains the confidence of the world. A general who occupies much of his time in explain- ing the weakness or the enemy or the unjust assaults or tactics of the enemy is not the general who wins many battles. So it is in business of every kind. "For example, the merchant who merely contents himself with holding his present trade without covering new ground in the way of increased patronage and trading in new territory is not the merchant who gets much of a rating for success in the business world. The merchant, again, who spends his time pointing out the weakness of another's business is not getting very far on the road to business success. All the energy you have to "knock" with, all the energy you have to voice complaints, coin that energy into improved methods of handling your own merchandise. "In few other parts of the world is there a greater chance for the Negro to get off the defensive through protection from the soil than is true in this section. As I have stated, in no other part of the United States is there greater opportunity for the Negro than in the six states adjacent to Muskogee—namely, Kansas, Missouri, Arkansas, Louisiana, Texas and Oklahoma. These six states comprise the greatest live stock and poultry section of the United States. About one-fourth of all the live stock in the country is in this section. This section is also great for poultry raising. The poultry owned in these six states is worth over $31,000,000 and is one-fifth the value of all the poultry in the country. "My own observation and statistics indicate that this is also one of the greatest farming districts in the United States. Almost 40 per cent of all the cotton raised in the country is produced in these states, and a great amount of corn, oats, wheat and potatoes is also raised. Here are, indeed, great opportunities for the Negro farmer. There are in the six states adjacent to this city 133,000,000 acres of unimproved land. This is an area of over 200,000 square miles. It is equal to the area of all the New England states, New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Pennsylvania and Ohio together. "In this great tract of unimproved land Negroes have the opportunity to settle and to bring up out of the soil, which is full of riches, cotton, corn, oats, wheat, poultry, horses, mules, cattle and hogs. These six states have a Negro population of 2,000,000. These Negroes have under their control as owners and renters about $300,000,000 worth of farm property. They own about 60,000 farms containing about 6,000,000 acres of land. The total value of the farm property, land, live stock, farming implements, etc., owned by the Negroes of these states is about $200,000,000. There is room, however, for improvement along all lines. For every Negro that owns an acre of land there are thirty-three who are landless. These thirty-three ought to get some of the millions of acres of unimproved land which are for sale. Let us get off the defensive. Let us stop the world from talking about the land we do not own, but about the land we do own. Get off the defensive by putting the world to talking about the thirty-three that do own land and not about the ones that do not own land. "Let your success thoroughly eclipse your shortcomings. We must give the world so much to think and talk about that relates to our constructive work in the direction of progress that people will forget and overlook our failures and shortcomings. Instead of giving people opportunity to explain why we failed to build a house let us build so many houses that the world will forget about the house that we failed to build. One big, definite fact in the direction of achievement and construction will go further in securing rights and removing prejudice than many printed pages of defense and explanation. "It is not well for us or our children that we should dwell so much on the defensive, with the negative side of life instead of the positive side. It is not well that our minds should be so continually centered upon our miseries or upon those who mistreat us. In the future let us emphasize our opportunities more and our difficulties less. Let us talk more about our white friends, and about our white enemies less. We do our children a lasting injustice when we feed them constantly upon the miseries of the race." "Let us talk about the man who has got a job and less about the man without a job. Let our fraternal and secret societies talk less about sickness and death and more about health and life. Let our societies spend less money in taking care of the sick and much more money in promoting the health of the race, and they will have to spend less on account of sickness and death. Instead of giving the world a chance to discuss the high death rate of the Negro, let us put the world to wondering why the Negro keeps so healthy and strong. Let us make health contagious in every community rather than disease. Church News PEOPLE'S PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH, €. 23RD AVE. AND WASHINGTON 8T. PASTOR, J. A. THOS- HAZELL 6. T. B.

Byron Gunner, president of the National Independent Political league, in his final message to the members of the organization regarding the coming annual meeting, says: "Dear Fellow Comrades—The preliminary call for the seventh annual meeting of the National Independent Political league has already been published. 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. "The meeting will be held in the Bethel church, New York city, from Sept. 7 to 9, inclusive. "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, 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. "At any necessary cost and sacrifice we must educate the masses of our people to become an independent, race loving people. The impression that has been deliberately built up and published worldwide that we are a child race and therefore are not to be dealt with as other races is a false claim that we must as a 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 damaging impressions of our people should begin to stir us to action. "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. Organize branch leagues, plan to attend the meetings, assist financially and in every other way possible. Let all churches, lodges, clic, literary and equal rights societies send delegates, and let us demonstrate to the world that we are determined to become American freemen. "Yours for freedom, "BYRON GUNNER, President." The Downingtown Industrial School. The coming school year at the Downingtown Agricultural and Industrial school at Downingtown, Pa., from present indications will be the largest in attendance of students in its history.

AMBITION OF THE LEADERS. Wisdom of Movement Recently Started Seen In Possibilities For the Material Advancement of the Race. Population Large Enough to Support Many More Business Establishments. New Rochelle, N. Y.-The colored citizens of this town, 1,800 in number, are solving their problems in a way that speaks well for their intelligence, industry and public spirit. They are almost as clannish as the Jews in their business relations with each other, and by and by they will have learned the lesson so completely of how to conserve each other's interest that every business and professional man of color in this enterprising town will be receiving his fair share of patronage from members of the race. There is now a movement on foot among its representative business and professional men to bring about closer union between the servers and the served so that the boys and girls who are being graduated from the high school and colleges will find a market for their intellectual wares. There are colored people enough in this pretty little city to support one or two first class groceries, a drug store, a general notion store, a butcher store, a bakery and ice cream parlor, a shoe store, a dentist and a good physician. As it is now some of the thoughtless among them are scattering their trade among foreign shopkeepers, who are making good profits out of their Negro customers, who, in turn, receive nothing except the winisome smiles of these shopkeepers and the stereotyped "Thank you; call again." It is gratifying to learn that the colored people are getting their eyes opened and are beginning to realize the importance of closer union, a better understanding of each other and of that neighborly feeling which is so helpful and beneficial to a people who are struggling to raise themselves in the scale of being. The clergy and the business and professional men of New Rochelle are working together harmoniously to bring about this end. Revs. Boddle and Slater, representing the great Baptist church and two of the largest churches of that faith in New Rochelle, are taking the lead in this movement among the people of their several churches. Rev. J. B. Boddie is perhaps one of the most influential clergymen in New Rochelle, and much is expected of him. The Methodist church, the A. M. E. Zion connection, is pastored by the Rev. Mr. Allen, a man of broad catholic views and of fine culture. He is a recent arrival in New Rochelle, but his newness on the field will be no bar to his activity in this reformatory and remedial work for Negro industrial, commercial, religious and professional advancement. Every man of brains in the race must realize by this time that the battle of the races is an intellectual one. Every intelligent man and woman among us certainly understands that the best use to which they can put their intelligence is in the direction toward which the progressive Negroes of New Rochelle are now bending their energies. Among these is Mr. Samuel J. Davis, the proprietor of the Davis Cash grocery, a well stocked, up to date grocery, employing two assistants ordinally and on Saturdays from three to four. Mr. Davis, taking Dr. Booker T. Washington's advice, "cast his bucket down here" and has not regretted it. He owns a three family apartment house in Horton avenue and other real estate and the largest and best stocked grocery store of any member of the race in New Rochelle, the others being owned by Smith & Braxton. The leading physician here, Dr. C. P. McClendon, is a graduate of Lincoln university and the University of Michigan. He has a splendid practice. He lives in his own house, where he has established a sanitarium for the treatment of patients who do not care to go to a hospital. It is a fine idea and when it becomes more generally known ought to prove a lasting benefit. There are a number of fine houses in New Rochelle owned by colored men. One of the prettiest of these is that of Mr. Emmanuel Eccles, a thrifty citizen and a practical farmer, who understands the art of tickling the earth and making it bring forth the increase. His house is located on Winthrop avenue and extends to Horton avenue. The land is all, except that upon which his house stands, under cultivation—a fine garden in the rear and flowers of many varieties in his spacious front yard to attract the eyes of passersby. Knights of Pythias Observe Field Day. The officers' league of the First regiment, uniform rank, Knights of Pythias of Pennsylvania observed field day at Olympic park, Pittsburgh, on Monday, Aug. 24. The attendance was large, and the various amusements planned for the entertainment of guests and visitors proved very attractive. The First Regiment band discoursed lively music throughout the day. The order in Pennsylvania is in fine condition financially and numerically and officered by capable and experienced men. Last and Best PICNIC of the Season LABOR DAY MON.

Newport News, Va.—What will prove to be a new epoch in the life of the Crown Savings bank of this city, which is headed by E. C. Brown and others, and which has for many years been a prominent factor in the commercial development of the race here, was the recent election by the board of directors of the bank of Mr. George Wesley Blount as director and general business manager. His election to this important position came by reason of his peculiar fitness for the same. Mr. Blount is one of the most popular and best known business men in this section of the state, which has been brought out through the institutions with which he as been actively affiliated a number of years. He stands high in the estimation of all who know him and his appointment to his present position is hailed with delight by his host of friends and admirers. He graduated from the academic and business departments of Hampton in- P. stitute and supplemented his training with additional study in business colleges in Boston. For six years he was an accountant in the treasurer's department at Hampton institute; four years assistant to Major R. R. Moton. Hampton's well known commandant; ten years a teacher of bookkeeping, practical business methods and principles in the business department of Hampton institute; member of the executive committee and corresponding secretary of the Negro Organization society of Virginia; member of the Business league and the Bachelors' club. The Crown Savings bank has been adding to its force from time to time people of thorough training and experience, and it is believed here in all circles that Mr. Blount is one of its very best acquirements. Such men are more needed by our business enterprises today than ever before in the history of the race. It is sincerely believed that the acquirement of his services will impart new life and energy into the business of the enterprise that has heretofore been a well conducted and prosperous institution. DR. B. T. WASHINGTON'S TOUR. Noted Educator to Make Three Days' Trip Through New Jersey. Orange, N. J.—The committee in charge of plans for the coming tour of New Jersey by Dr. Booker T.

We don't blame anybody for getting as much as they can for his or her labor, but have the Colorado miners been given a living wage? And in this connection we shall discuss whether the demand of additional pay for additional and varied work was well founded. In our judgment these two demands should be merged. The amount of money a miner can earn largely depends upon the amount of work he can or is willing to perform. The United Mine Workers of America, an organization which excludes black labor, have said all that the miners wanted was a "living wage and the enforcement of the laws affecting the coal-mining industry." What is a living wage for miners? The average wage earned by the individual coal miners working in all parts of Colorado, as published in the advertisements of the coal mine owners, we find to be about $4 per day, practically $105 per month, and working eight hours a day, or less, if they choose. This is said to include wages earned by good, bad and indifferent miners. The wages of some miners are said to run as low as $2.25 per day, while other miners individually earn over $7 per day. The comparison of the average coal miner wage for the entire state of $4 per day, with the wages earned by other classes of laboring men in Colorado who are equally skilled with a coal miner, shows that if the average wages of all coal miners in Colorado is $105 per month, they are now being paid in a wage entirely in keeping with the wages paid other classes of labor in Colorado. Imagine every negro miner receiving $105 per month, and more if he desires to earn it. Why our little city jobs of $50, $60 and $70 per month are knocked completely in the shade. Imagine again that this opportunity of earning this money is taken away from black labor completely and given over wholly to white labor, what a calamity would come to the black labor! Therefore, taking the miners at their published word, we believe that their original demand of 10 per cent in crease over the present Colorado scale, has already been met by the payment of the existing scale of wages for mining coal in this state, and which is higher in the net wages earned in any other state. So on these points we failed to agree with the miners about there not receiving a living wage. All the Star asks is let the black labor receive "this living wage" if white labor is dissatisfied. THE COMING LEGISLATURE. Our popular musician and leader, Mr. George Morrison and his famous string band and orchestra were notified recently at Elitch's Gardens, where they had a contract to play, sing and entertain for the summer, that their services were no longer needed after August 8th, because the Unions had notified Mrs. Elitch-Long that there would be a general strike if these musicians of color continued to work. The colored musicians were let out, of course, although they were refused permission to join the union and prevented from giving the continued general satisfaction that they were accustomed to give, entertaining in the Gardens. This is a very live, concrete example. This year thousands of dollars and much influence is being brought to bear upon the prospective candidates attitude in reference to the full crew law, and various other innocently looking labor bills to be introduced by the various unions. The mining laws will receive the greatest attention. Mr. Negro voters get registered not only for the fall election but the Nisbet recall will also come later. Don't you see how important your registration will mean to you and your race. This is our last opportunity to tell you to go to the County Court house and register. We have confidence in you to do it. Let our noble women take especial interest in this registration NOW, as it may mean Your bread and butter after while. FRESH VEGETABLES OUT OR GARDEN.

Delegates and Visitors In Large Numbers Enjoy Contact With Leaders of Religious Thought—President A. M. Moore Recommends Increase In Annual Funds For Educational Work. Durham, N. C.—From the singing of the first anthem by the augmented chorus of a hundred voices down to the last benediction there was an atmosphere of cordial fellowship and mutual co-operation in the legislation, deliberations and discussions of the state Baptist Sunday school convention, which met here recently. More than 500 delegates and visitors were present. Dr. A. M. Moore, the president, being incapacitated by a severe kick from his horse the previous night, was unable to officiate, and Dr. E. M. Brawley presided. Dr. Brawley with few but thoughtful words welcomed the delegates on behalf of the church and introduced Mr. C. C. Spaulding. Mr. Spaulding extended greetings to the convention on behalf of the colored citizens of Durham and introduced Mayor W. J. Brogden. The mayor is a forceful speaker, possessing a rare knowledge of the problems of Christianity, fortified by extended practical experience and a natural sincerity of purpose. His address was frequently interrupted by enthusiastic applause. Dr. E. E. Smith of Fayetteville responded to the welcome addresses. The annual sermon was preached by Dr. C. S. Brown of Winton, N. C. The president's annual address was read by A. L. Holsey. The address opened with a retrospective fore- thought, in which the work of the past year was reviewed. The need of cooperation and closer contact between the church and Sunday school and a suggestion offered that the fund maintained by the convention for the aid of deserving girls who are attending school be increased to $500 per year were also points of interest in the president's address. Dr. Moore favored a plan to help promote, control and maintain the theological department of Shaw university, making this institution the recognized head of the educational work in the state. He also favored institute work for Sunday school teachers in district conventions. Labor Day Picnic at Bloomfield Park—All kinds of sport, all day. Big Chicken Race. Particulars later.

FOR RENT BEAUTIFUL NIPPON HALL THE MAYOR The "Poro" preparations used in connection with the treatment are made and sold exclusively by myself, having the exclusive right to that name; and I alone, know the secret of the composition that bears that name. Our claim has always been that when the hair begins to grow as the result of the use of "PORO," it will continue to do so if only the scalp and hair be kept clean. This sanitary method of treatment is also having the desired effect in helping to prevent the spread of diseases, for it is a fact that hair in an unsanitary condition carries the germs of disease which often prove fatal to innocent persons coming in contact with them.

HE SAYS: “I am in favor of local option. I am a thorough believer in local self-government, and believe that every self-governing commu- nity which constitutes a sogial unit should have the right to contro] the matter of the nee withholding of licenses.”’ With his wonderful breadth of vision, President Wilson has been able to see, through the maze of prohibition fallacy, the growing tendency on the part of the American people to return more strongly than ever to the beliefs of the early American statesmen whose far- seeing wisdom was invoked in the formation of the government that has served as a model for alll liberty-loving races. He has witnessed the utter failure of state-wide prohibition to accomplish the result for which it was intended in Maine, in Tennes- sce, in Georgia, in West Virginia and in Kansas, where either the open saloon, without regulation, or the ‘‘blind tiger’’ and ‘‘boot- legger’’ have supplied the demand of the human ‘appetite, and where the evil of intemperance has grown by leaps and bounds. Despite the’ demands of the fanatics for more stringent prohibi- tory laws, the President has calmly watched the result of local option, where it has been tried, and has reached the logical conclusion that in that doctrine lies the solution of the liquor problem. MOONSHINERS Flourish in Dry Georgia, Ac- cording to Report of United States Revenue Agents Atlanta, Ga., July 29,—An Inereese of approximately 300 per cent in the number of illicit distilleries in Georgia since the “dry” law went fn- to effect 1s shown in a report sent to the Internal Revenue Department at Washington by J. H. Surber, revenue agent, for the fiscal year ending June 10 last. Surber charges the difference was caused by the increased demand for liquor, and says the moonshiners are getting $3 a gallon where they former- ly had been able to sell for only $1. SS ee INSANITY AND PAUPERI8M, KAN- 8A8 AND NEBRASKA. It is claimed by the advocates of state-wide prohibition that the probl- bition states over the country have not only less pauperism and less {n- sanity but less crime, on the averase, in proportion to population than the “wet” states, Kansas is the model “dry” state and Nebraska. her nearest netghbor, with like natural conditions is . Surber has jurisdiction —_ over Georgia, Alabama and Florida. In these states his men destroyed 1,301 stills and made cases against 1,- 153 persons, two of whom were wom: en, Georgia mountaineers operated 948 of those establishments, it fs said. In Georgia's Inst ‘‘wet” years only 480 “stills” were found by the revenue officers in Georgia, Florida and Ala- bama. Rev. Dr. Lyman Abbott says: “It was not the method of Jesus. He lived in an age of total abstinence 30- cleties and did not join them. He emphasized the distinction between His methods and those of John the Baptist, that John camo nelther eating nor drinking; tHe Son of Man came eating and drinking. He condemned drunkenness, but never in a single in- stance lifted His voice in condemns, thon of drinking.” ‘The following are the official statis. ties: ‘The federal census report of insane and feeble-minded in institutions | in 1910 (Bulletin 119), gives these fig: ures for Kansas and Nebraska: Insane in hospitals January 1, 1910: Kansas, 2,912; Nebraska, 1,990, Ad: mitted in 1910: Kansas, 906; Nebras ka, 411, Insane with alcoholic psy: chosis, admitted in 1910: Kansas, 70; Nebraska, 20.

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 texture 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. A Business Man For a Business Administration A. BARNETTE T. NAPIER OF GLENWOOD SPRINGS Candidate for the Democratic Nomination for GOVERNOR T. D. Foster A MAN WITH THE PUSH M. Candidate For Democrati Nomination STATE AUDITOR 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. 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 pri- maries. 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 relied 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. DOE6 THIS MEAN YOU? IF SO, REGISTER. 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. THE MISSING MAN 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. COLORED AMERICAN LOAN AND REALTY CO. 1027 21st St., Denver, Cole. WE COLLECT FOR YOU.

INFECTION AND INSECT BITES DANGEROUS Mosquitoes, flies and other insects, which breed quickly in garbage pails, ponds of stagnant water, barns, musty places, etc., are carriers of disease. Every time they bite you they inject poison into your system from which some dread disease may result. Get a bottle of Sloan's Liniment. It is antiseptic and a few drops will neutralize the infection caused by insect bites or rusty nails. Sloan's Liniment disinfects cuts, bruises and wounds.

IMPERIAL COMUS CLUB GIVES PROGRESSIVE DINNER. Something new in the line of social entertaining was given last Wednesday night by the Imperial Comus club. Denver was surprised with the first of its kind, a progressive dinner. Eleven members and guests first assembled at the residence of Mr. E. Robinson, 2214 Clarkson, and promptly at 8:40 o'clock, as had been scheduled, the merry party boarded four touring cars waiting to detour the route which had been outlined by the entertainment committee. The cars were consecutively numbered white, red and green, and the letters "I. C. C." and the word "Pilot" stood out in bold inscription on the first car. The merry train arrived at the first stop to partake of the first course, which was in charge of Messrs. Davis and Banion, and was served at the latter's residence. This course consisted of an apetizer and soup. The abundantly filled dishes were quickly reduced to empties and the "all aboard" signal was given and the party journeyed on to the second stop and enjoyed a delightful repast at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. L. George which had been voluntarily prepared by them. Every member feels very grateful to them for their unsolicited yet most highly appreciated courtesies to the club. This course consisted of chicken patties and salt sprays. Then the party, seemingly as anxious to ride as they were to eat, took a round about way which brought them to the place designated as the third cessation of revelry for honest boarding. That means that this course was heavy, and in charge of Messrs. Chas. Austin, Hamlet and Rice. We were very sorry that Mr. Rice was that night in the flower beds of California; even at that he would rather have been with his club. This course, which was artistically served, consisted of salmon croquets, tiny peas, potatoes and sandwiches, some being unable to store away as fast as others ate, while some danced until all had finished. Then to the west end of the city, where the party enjoyed the ice cream course in charge of Messrs. Baker and Woodard, near the beautiful illuminated boulevard on Cherry creek. There we found the Baker residence in the club habilliments. Then to the final stop of the proposed dinner circuit, the party journeyed to Park Hill, and at the residence of D. L. Thomas the last course in charge of Messrs. Robinson, Thomas and F. R. Baker, was leisurely enjoyed. This course consisted of cheese, wafers, coffee, mint and Virginia Dare. Then a ride to Inspiration Point and thence to Littleton wound up the party and all returned to their respective abodes. Those who enjoyed the club's hospitality were Misses Nina Kelly, Marguerite Groves, Maud Wright, Sidney Lacy, Gonzales Porter, Jennie Hicks, Hazel Robinson and Mesdames Ethel Crayton, Lela Davis and Lillian Collins.—Adv.
