Denver Star

The Denver Star Has The Largest Circulation Among Colored People. Get Wise and Advertise. The Denver Star ESTABLISHED 1888 Interesting Concerning the housed in what is probably the most complete school building for colored children in the South, recently erected by the board of education, S. F. Ashmore, superintendent, at a cost of $100,000. It contains 21 rooms, and besides the regular branches facilities will be offered for the teaching of practical domestic sciences. Mr. Hubert is a graduate of Morehouse College, Atlanta, and of Chicago University. For a while he was head of the natural science department of Tuskegee Institute. Mr. C. K. Graham, director of the Agricultural Department of the Hampton Institute, has announced that the annual Negro Farmers Conference will be held on Monday and Tuesday, November 9 and 10, 1914. A most cordial invitation to attend this conference is extended to all who are interested in rural life. The regular session will open Monday evening and continue until 4 p.m. Tuesday. During this time all visitors will be considered guests of the school and as usual will be furnished with beds and meals. There will be interesting exhibits of grain, forage, forage crop seeds, vegetables, cotton, tobacco, peanuts fresh and dried fruits, fresh cured and smoked meats, live and dressed poultry, products, domestic arts, domestic economy, handmade baskets, door mats and axe handles. On Tuesday there will be a plowing match, a live-stock judging contest, and a meeting of special interest to women. Beginning on Wednesay morning and continuing until Saturday, a special course of instruction will be conducted by the agricultural teachers. There will be regular classes each of these three days in tillage, corn, potatoes, hogs, horses and poultry; special classes in cooking and manual training. These classes will be opened to any person who cares to take advantage of such an opportunity. Each year the Negro Farmers and their wives have shown more interest and enthusiasm in the Hampton Farmers' Conference. This year is expected to surpass all previous conferences in the number in attendance and also in the high standard of quality and usefulness of the exhibit. Lillian Spuarlock, a ten year old colored child, was turned away from the Sherman School playground in Cincinnati, Ohio, where she had been accustomed to play, on account of color. --- GERMANS FEAR US. French Newspaper Says Kaiser's Soldiers Are Afraid of Colored Troops. One of the horrors of war has been discovered by a correspondent of a Paris newspaper. It has been noticed in instances that German soldiers held a great dread for the colored soldiers. The French Government has in the field a number of regiments made up of colored men from Senegal. These troops are on the order of the Tenth Cavalry in America when it comes to their fighting ability, and have proven to be of great aid to the French Government ever since they have been assigned to the war zone. The German troops are very unwilling to face these chargers, who know no fear when it comes to charging the enemies' lines. As a bit of strategy on the part of the French Generals, they have ordered most of their regiments to use burnt cork on their faces, and have imitated the Senegals in every way possible. In one instance before a charge was ordered the program was followed with a horrible yell to which they gave vent which seem to have had a considerable effect. On one occasion, it is related, a detachment of Germans turned tail and fled when they saw these "Christy Ministrel" Senegalese charging them. Company Organized Liberian Trading. Baltimore, Md.—in order to aid Liberian export and import trade, as well as to stimulate other activities in the little West African republic, the International Liberian Beneficial League is being formed. The plans for the project are in the hands of Dr. Ernest Lyon, the Liberian Consul General to the United States, and the headquarters for the projected organization will be in this city. Dr. Lyon has received the endorsement of prominent men and women of this country. Savannah Has New $100,000 School. Savannah, Ga.—John W Hubert, principal of the Farm School, White Plains, Ga., will come to this city Oct. 1 to assume principalship of the new Cuyler street grammar school. This school will be Negro Farmers. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, SEPT. 26, 1914 The Colorado Annual Conference Holds Thirty-Ninth Session at Colorado Springs. BISHOP H. B. PARKS of Chicago, Presiding. The thirty-ninth session of the Colorado Annual Conference held in Colorado Springs was, in many respects, a remarkable gathering. First of all, Bishop H. B. Parks, who presided over the session, was never in finer spirit and he never greeted the brethren in a more cordial manner than on this occasion. His manifest determination to uphold a high moral standard for our ministry even when it meant personal sacrifice to himself was beautiful and greatly endeared him to his brethren. Our local churches made splendid reports; Shorter reporting over one hundred accessions and $460.00 dollar money and Campbell Chapel, over one hundred accessions and $164.75 dollar money. Shorter not only reported the largest amount of any church in the conference, but her increase over all previous reports was also the largest, being $20.00. Reports from charges throughout the conference, with few exceptions, showed that the work is enjoying a healthy growth. The entertainment of the conference was all that could be hoped for. Rev. Spurgeon D. Davis and the Peoples M. E. church and the members of the Baptist church vied with Dr. D. A. Graham and Payne Chapel in seeing that every comfort was provided for visitors. The Peoples Church went so far as to serve dinner Friday for the entire conference. A strong spirit of brotherhood was manifested by members of the stronger race also. The Mayor of the city addressed the conference in terms which spelled WELCOME and the pastor of the First Methodist church not only welcomed this body to the city, but also invited the conference to supply his pulpit on the Sabbath, which invitation was accepted. The opening sermon was by Rev. D. R. Jones of Albuquerque, and the ordination, by Rev. John L. Wiiliams. Prof. John R. Hawkins of Washington, D. C., made a great address, Revs. J. W. Warren and W. H. Thomas also delivered splendid sermons. Revs. Robert L. Pope and Jas. Washington were returned to our local pastorates and Rev. A. M. Ward was returned to the district, for which Denver is justly proud. The number of ministers transferred both into and out of the conference was unusually large this year. Those going out were, Revs. A. H. Brooks to the Kansas conference, J. H. Brown to the Oklahoma conference, S. D. Lovell to the N. Missouri conference, W. H. Thomas to the New York conference, D. A. Graham to Spokane, Wash. Puget Sound conference, T. D. Cate, Anacoda, Mont Puget Sound conference and J. W. Warren to Kansas conference. Those coming in were Revs. John L. William of Seattle, Wash., F. L. Don ohoo of Spokane, Wash., Wm. Hawkins, of Jopkin, Mo., Jno. Adams of Butte, Mont., R. H. Heering and S. E. Newell of California conference. APPOINTMENTS.

Morris, when he called the seventeenth biennial committee, Grand United Order of Odd Fellows to order Monday morning. The greatest interest centers in the election of officers. The first test vote came Tuesday morning when the Morris forces elected the two secretaries by a vote of seven hundred and ninety-four for the Morris forces as against three hundred and ninety-nine for the Houston-Davis forces. Wednesday another test vote showed the Morris forces in control by a vote of seven hundred and ninety-eight against three hundred and seventy on the adoption of laws. Indications point to the utter defeat of the anti-Morris forces.—The Bee. --- For the first time in the history of the United States, the machinery of the government of 90,000,000 people is being used to humiliate and degrade 10,000,000 of its loyal and law-abiding citizens. In some of the departments of the Federal Government at Washington Afro-American employees have been segregated from their former associates and fellow workers and ordered to use separate retiring rooms. In some instances cages have been built to separate Afro-American and white government clerks. No other class is obliged to bear this badge of degradation. There is no warrant in law for these orders of subordinate officials. The facts have been brought to the attention of the Department heads and thousands of petitions, memorials and letters have been sent to President Wilson, but up to this writing he has not seen fit to rescind this infamous un-American policy. The clerks who have been humiliated by the segregation orders are in no sense wards of the government. They have won their places by examination and the government which they have so faithfully and efficiently served has no right to place upon them this badge of dishonor. It is not a question of social equality that chimera which so many Caucasians claim to fear of every citizen. Heretofore the attempts to degrade the citizenry have been the work of individual states in the southern tier: the Federal Government must be held responsible for this new attempt to establish that impossible thing, caste in a Republic. Honest fair minded Americans feel that the fair fame of our country is being trailed in the dust: they hang their heads in shame. We hold President Wilson responsible because in the final analysis the acts of his subordinate officials are his and he has the power to end this injustice by a word. We have not lost faith in the President and we believe that he will carefully consider the many protests which have been made and give the word which a Christian Statesman should give, that during his administration there shall be no segregation or discrimination on account of race, creed or color among the servants of the government -Ed. The Minneapolis Appeal. Attempt to Enjoin Citizens Club. Philadelphia, Pa. - Mrs. A. M. Sweet, who owns an apartment house at 420 South 15th street, has applied to Court No. 1 for an injunction against the Citizens' Republican Club the swell colored organization of this city, whose home is next door to the petitioner. She asks to have the club, as it is now conducted, declared an unbearable nuisance. FIVE CENTS A COPY. It is generally accepted that leadership is not a gift from God, but an acquirement created by man. That any individual who receives political or other special preferment, is a man destined to lead the people. Among Negroes political office constitutes real leadership, and among white folks, a Negro leader is the man who exploits their views with reference to worth and character of the Race. Both of these positions are erroneous. Neither qualifications as quoted above, constitutes, or rises to the dignity of real leadership. Leaders are born and divinely called to perform a special service to mankind. Lincoln was a true type of leadership. He was divinely appointed to discharge the work of emancipating the slaves. Thomas Jefferson had established the equaiity of mankind before the law, and made it divine that all men of right, ought to be free, and Lincoln was chosen by Providence to put these fundamentals of human rights into reality. There is absolutely not a single element of leadership in the self constituted who are posing around the country holding themselves out as leaders. A leader is not a man who takes from society, but a man who contributes something tangible to the welfare of the human family. Each generation contributes only one leader in a sphere, and all others are imitators, fakes and self-appointees. The Race is poor in real men and leaders, but overstocked with self-constituted fakirs and self-appointees. We have too many fake leaders. Too many men who have been appointed for us without proper regard for the fitness or equipment. A true leader can always have a following. The people are with him because he delivers the goods the people want and must have He always has an audience when he talks, because he talks about the things the people want to hear. The people love him because his heart and soul beat in unison with theirs. You can always tell the fakir because he goes to the other people to get his authority to lead us. Leaders are born and not made to order to suit or do the bidding of the Creator. There was a huge parade on Labor day by the colored branch of the International Longshoremen and the Cotton Jammers, an organization recently established in Indianapolis. Plans had been made to unite the longshoremen's parade with that of the Emancipation park, bringing out the entire Negro organization of the city into one parade.

Former American Minister Ernest Lyon, Who Now Represents the Liberian Government In the United States, Says Trade Relations With Africa Would Benefit Our People. BY FRANKLIN F. JOHNSON. Baltimore. — Plans' for a big international organization to aid in the development of Liberian trade relations with this country and the resources of the little West African republic are under way. The projected body will be known as the Liberian-American Emigration and Colonization society, and its membership will include prominent people in Liberia, the United States, the West Indies, Central and South America. Headquarters will be maintained in this city. The contemplated body has the indorsement of prominent Liberians, who express themselves as being very desirous that Americans manifest a deeper interest in their country. The perfection of plans for the proposed organization will largely devolve upon Dr. Ernest Lyon, the Liberian consul general to the United States. He served seven years as American minister to the little West African republic, and there is probably not a man in America who has a better knowledge of Liberian needs and conditions than he. It was largely through his efforts and also through his initiative that an American commission was sent to Liberia in 1908. The findings of this commission, together with first hand information furnished by Dr. Lyon, awakened the interest and sympathy of the United States government, and as a result Liberia was enabled to borrow $1,700,000 and an American, Reed Palge Clark, was sent to Monrovia to collect sufficient customs to guarantee the interest and sinking fund on the loan. The trade of Liberia is with European nations, Germany enjoying a monopoly. This trade has been de- A. B. CONSUL ERNEST LYON. stroyed since the outbreak of the present European conflict. The loss of this trade, both import and export, has been distressing to the country. The banking interests there are controlled by Europeans, and one of the largest, hitherto controlled by English capital, recently passed into German control. Liberians are beginning to regard America as their friend, and this interest has been heightened since the recent visit to this country of Hon John Lewis Morris, secretary of the treasury for the former country. In speaking of the proposed organization Consul General Lyon declared that it would mean the welding together of colored Americans and the people of that country and the beginning of deep foreign interests for the men and women of the race in this country. "Liberia needs our products," he said, "and especially so since the European war has stifled its sources of imports and crippled its export trade. Liberia exports ivory, palm nuts, rubber, mahogany and other products that would find a ready market in the United States. A big international organisation in which men and women of the race are interested could aid materially in bringing about the desired aim. "Liberia needs some of our strongest and most capable young men and women. It also needs the co-operation and sympathy of Americans. It affords a fine opportunity for colored Americans to take part in developing its trade and resources. "If colored Americans seize the opportunity as they should there would be no reason why vessels should, not be running direct from- New York, Baltimore or New Orleans to Liberia. The headquarters will be in Baltimore, where the movement for the establishment of that country began. Congress and the legislatures of Maryland and Virginia will be asked to make appropriations." Dr. Lyon has already received assurances from prominent persons that they would aid in any movement looking to closer financial and trade relations between the two countries. ZEALOUS BAPTIST LEADER. Success of Dr. W. H. Jernagin at Mount Carmel Church. Washington.—The Baptist denomination in this city is represented by many able, well educated and progressive ministers. The duration of their services as pastor of their congregations extends in some instances over a period of twelve, fifteen, twenty-five and thirty-five years. The church edifices in the main are well kept and have modern improvements. Financially they are in splendid condition, being liberally sustained by the free will contributions of the members and congregation. The Mount Carmel Baptist church was fortunate enough about two years ago to secure the services of the Rev. W. H. Jernagin, D. D., who has greatly helped the church forward along all lines of its aspirations and progress. Under Dr. Jernagin's able leadership the congregation purchased the church edifice in which President Wilson worshiped when he became a resident of Washington and until the property was sold to the Mount Carmel congregation in February, 1914. As a pastor and church financier Dr. Jernagin has been highly successful He is well and favorably known by the [Picture of a man in a suit with a tie]. REV. W. H. JERNAGIN, D. D. Baptists in the southwest, and since he became the pastor of the Mount Carmel church his good work and influence have been widely felt. He believes in giving the young people of his church a chance to use their time and talent in all the activities of the church, and thus they are trained in the doctrine and discipline of the church of their faith. Dr. Jernagain spent most, of his recent vacation traveling. Leaving Washington Aug. 2 he spent four days in Pittsburgh, attending the interstate conference of grand chapters of the Order of Eastern Star of the United States, of which he is interstate royal patron. As leader of that great organization he is planning with Mrs. Austin of Tampa, Fla., interstate royal matron, to bring about uniformity in the ritualistic work of the Order of Eastern Star and get all the grand chapters of the United States interested in the next biennial meeting. From Pittsburgh he went to Buffalo and Niagara Falls. His next stop was at Toronto, Canada, where he visited a number of institutions and points of interest. From Toronto he went to Kingston and the Thousand islands; thence to Montreal, passing through the great Cedar rapids and other places of interest. After spending some time in visiting the great churches and institutions in Montreal he continued his journey to Quebec, the quaint old historic city. There he visited many historic places. Short stops were also made in Richmond and Sheerwood. On his return to the United States he spent some time in Springfield, Mass., and New York city, where he visited the leading institutions. Dr. Jernagh returned home in time for the annual meeting of the National Baptist convention, which was held in Convention hall, Philadelphia, from Sept. 9 to 14 inclusive. He is doing a great work in Washington and takes an active part in all good movements for the advancement of our people. He is especially loyal to and outspoken in matters relating to the civil and political rights of the race as vouchsafed by the federal constitution to all citizens of this republic. Attorney F. B. Ranson Wins Case. The recent trip of Attorney F. B. Ranson of Indianapolis, Ind., to Jackson, Miss., whither he went to secure the release of a young colored man from prison, aroused much attention among the friends of his client, who is the son of a widow. Mr. Ranson was successful in his efforts, and the young man in question was pardoned by the authorities. The crime charged was for the murder of a white man, presumably in self defense. Mme. C. J. Walker of Indianapolis contributed the money with which to defray the expenses of the trial of the young man. New Weekly Paper in Orange, N. J. In Orange, N. J., where in the past no weekly paper published by a member of the race has been known to live for any considerable length of time. J. W. Mottley is making a success publishing the New Jersey Advocate. Mr. Mottley comes from the West Indies. He is very energetic, likes newspaper work and is building up a large circulation for the Advocate in the Oranges and other sections of New Jersey. He has already applied for admission into the National Negro Press association. [Portrait of a man in a suit with a bow tie, set against a decorative background with an American flag.] State-Wide Prohibition Harmful Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, noted educator, student and author, in his commencement address as president of Columbia University, June 3, 1914, said: "Probably the greatest waste recorded anywhere in human history is the attempt to do over again that which has once been done and found disappointing or harmful. If the lessons of history as studied were really learned and hearkened to, the world would be saved an almost infinite amount of loss, of suffering and of discouragement. When this college was young the word that rose oftenest and instinctively to the lips was liberty. Men were then everywhere seeking for ways and means to throw off trammels which had been placed upon them by institutions of long standing, but which were found to hamper them at every turn and to hem them in on every side. Liberty in those days meant freedom of conscience, of speech and of the press; it meant freedom to move about over the world, to seek one's own fortune under strange skies and in foreign lands, there to live the life that one's own mind and conscience selected as most suitable. Liberty was then the watchword. Standing in his place in the convention during the fateful spring of 1793, Robespierre pronounced this definition of liberty, which is almost the best of its kind: "Liberty is the power which of right belongs to every man, to use all his faculties as he may choose. Its rule is justice; its limits are the rights of others; its principles are drawn from Nature itself; its protector is the law." Certainly his thought on this fundamental question of liberty was clear and sound. We have moved far away from his view of what is important in life. There has grown up in America an astonishingly widespread belief in the value of regulation and restriction, not only as a substitute for liberty, but directly in opposition to it. That against which the leaders of the race revolted a century and more ago is now pressed upon us in another form as a desirable end at which to aim. Not liberty, but regulation and restriction are the watchwords of today. Just as the driving force of an engine is to be found in the steam chest and not in the brake, so the driving force in civilization will be found in liberty and not in restriction. It is worth your while to take note, therefore, that while liberty is now in the foreground of human thinking and human action, it cannot be long kept out of the place which of right and of necessity belongs to it." A VOTE FOR STATE-WIDE PROHIBITION IS A VOTE AGAINST LOCAL OPTION VOTE "NO" ON STATE-WIDE PROHIBITION THE COLORADO BUSINESS MEN'S HOME RULE LEAGUE UNREGULATED DISTILLING OF LIQUOR WOULD RESULT FROM STATE-WIDE PROHIBITION. To the Editor of The Sun—Sir: You have recently published many statements concerning the traffic of whiskey and drugs in Sing Sing and the local prisons and penitentiaries. And in yesterday's issue of The Sun you gave prominence to an account of a petition for prohibition made by the convicts of a Pennsylvania prison to the members of the Legislature. The article states that "it is certainly a wonderful argument against the liquor traffic." How can any members of a State Legislature or of Congress who advocates either state or national prohibition seriously expect that it can be enforced among the free people in any state, or in the United States, if it cannot be enforced among prisoners absolutely under restraint behind supposedly impregnable prison walls? For under a national prohibitory law, according to Congressional Hobson, home distillation will be per- OPINIONS OF EMINENT DIVINES. Very Rev. Dr. D. J. Hartley, Little Rock, Ark: "Everyone knows that there are many saloons that are perfectly orderly and law abiding, where people go to drink their beer in peace with congenial companions, and where a drunkard is scarcely ever seen. Have J., as a minister, any more right to interfere with the business of such a place than the saloon-keeper would have to disturb the peace of my congregation while at workside!" mitted, and consequently the secret sale of whiskey will follow. Moonshine stills now operated at a great risk in competition with legitimate distilleries, just for the sake of saving the revenue tax, will have the entire field to themselves under prohibition. Their output, however, will be inferior to that of the legitimate distilleries, for the modern distilleries eliminate the fusel oil and alcohol other than ethyl alcohol. But this requires a large plant not easily hidden, as moonshine stills must be. On the other hand prohibition will completely stop the brewing of beer. Beer such as our public has been accustomed to cannot be brewed on a small scale. To make a good, wholesome and palatable article requires the best technical appliances of the modern brewery. In other words, all the evils of intemperance, far from being banished, will be multiplied when people can no longer obtain the mildest fermented drinks containing but 3 to 4 per cent of alcohol. Whiskey with 40 per cent of alcohol and more will be obtainable everywhere, but of a very deleterious quality—Brooklyn, July 8, F. Jones Jr. From the New York Sun, July 16, 1914. Bishop Gallor, Tennessee: "Many people thought State-wide prohibition to be the ideal remedy. Instead of calling to their aid some experts on the subject and having laws framed that could be enforced they forced through the legislature a measure that has lead to civic desperacy. It is impracticable and its violation is productive of bidden and shameful evils. You cannot pass laws that way.

REPUBLICANS GET TOGETHER. In an harmonious meeting at the Brown Palace hotel, the Republican state central committee and all the leading Republicans of the state got together and elected the Hon. Philip B. Stewart state chairman, which of itself was the greatest political move of the campaign. Mr. John F. Vivian, whom all the colored men know to be a man of his word and honor, was elected secretary. The Star feels justly proud of this selection of good men to conduct this most important campaign. Now that all internal dissensions have been settled, organizing and preparatory steps will be taken to roll up the biggest Republican majority given to any set of men in Colorado. Nothing but a big Republican victory this year will suffice. Everybody get on the band wagon of Republicanism. The State Republican Central Committee met Tuesday in the ordinary of Brown Palace hotel and organized by electing Hon. Phil. B. Stewart of Colorado Springs state chairman, Mrs. Timberlake vice-chairman, and Hon. John F. Vivian secretary, and adopted a vote-getting platform. W. B. Townsend and Mrs. Alice D. Webb, president and secretary of Denver colored Republicans, were invited to be present and to participate in the organization. Later they were called into conference with the leaders as to the work to be done among the colored voters during the coming campaign. Mrs. Odessa Singleton of Indianapolis, Ind., after a five weeks visit to this city, left for her home Thursday of last week. Miss Singleton was highly impressed with the western scenery and the hospitality of the people. She took a trip over the famous Moffat road among her many side trips. The Denver Star has no quarrel with anyone. Everyone who can and will work for the success of the Republican party this year is quite welcome to work. Suffice to say that there is no use in the Negro dividing himself in many parts in order to furnish or accommodate leaders. However, if some can work for Republicanism better alone or with a certain few than with one united body of men and women, the Star says, work, work, WORK, as long as it is for Republican victory. Yet there must always be and there will be this time a recognized leader who will look after the welfare of the Negro voters. The Star does not intend to fight Republican leaders or members, but intends to use its strength for Republican success. Will you do as much by putting away your little hammer? FAITHFUL REPUBLICAN WRITES TO STAR. WILL SUPPORT PARTY THIS YEAR. To the Denver Star. In last week's Star, under the title of "Our Organizations," an article appeared purporting to advise "two organizations whose object is personal benefit." Twenty years ago the Colored Women's Republican Campaign Club was organized. It has enrolled upon its books men and women of integrity whose work and worth in religious, fraternal, political and club circles has never been questioned. Since its organization it has ever been a potent factor in every campaign, working quietly but effectively in every district in the city. Parlor and public meetings are held to stimulate our people to register and vote and to take an active interest in the government of our nation, state and city. Whenever and wherever possible, members of the club have been given employment during the campaigns, and I defy any man, be he black or white, to say that employment thus secured was not honestly and evenly distributed among the members of the club. Our organization is not now, nor has it ever been a rival to any other organization. We are doing our work in our own way and are not begging unity or guardianship from any paper or organization. We believe in the righteousness of republicanism which whenever successful insures peace and prosperity to all of the people, and upon this platform we will work for Republican success.

SALT LAKE INSPIRATIONS. A Complimentary Innovation. Salt Lake City, Utah, stands high in the list of those who, in the face of all opposition, have demonstrated their ability to "do things," the moral conviction to shatter the idols of prejudice, and to adopt a commendable standard worthy of emulation. Two years ago colored girls were placed in the theatres of Chicago as ushers. The test was experimental and the eyes of the suspecting people were turned to those places of amusement critically, certain that the theatres had adopted a plan of huge impossibilities. The future, however, does not always disclose its results; and after a lapse of two years, we find the girls seriously holding on to their new-found duty, the performance of which has so much impressed the manager and patrons that Seattle was soon in line for colored ushers, and just recently the Utah theatre of Salt-Lake installed them. Mrs. Beulah O'Brien was instrumental in the establishment and selection of the beautiful and intelligent array of girls in the Utah house, and with her in charge and Miss Valentine Pearson captain of the upper floor, we look forward to a permanent home and occupation in this new venture. The manager has expressed himself as being entirely satisfied, and we are hopeful of good results. Now, girls, you on whom the honor has been conferred, "make good" and remember that all who may have the good fortune to follow you will have to be subjected to your standard of morality and good behavior. Other houses and more cities will be claimed by us if your actions, your department, your strict attention to business, can bear the imprint of approval from your managers and patrons. You all have the ability and we are confident of your success. Let this be a real live issue, and when we express our gratitude to those who have been kind enough to open this avenue to the race, our kindly remembrance to those who had the courage to forge to the front and the tenacity of purpose to make good, will live forever. We deserve recognition, and when the day comes that the barrier of opposition is removed, we should double our efforts to prove to the world and to the prejudiced few that it was not lack of ability, but of opportunity, that prevented us from making good. To the managers of the various theatres in Chicago, Seattle and Salt Lake City, through whose efforts this system was inaugurated, we extend our deep and sincere gratitude and trust that these girls whom you have seen fit to install in your houses, may give such satisfaction that through your recommendation the doors of other theatres may be opened to admit them. A movement of this sort must perforce redound to our credit, and help to eliminate the differences and the prejudices that are so often inflicted upon the innocent. Chicago, Seattle and Salt Lake City are already accounted for, and we hope that ere long Denver may line herself up in this noble cause. Who will be next? 2 PHILIP B. STEWART Who will bring Republican success to his party. S. E. COOK. MAKING HEADWAY IN SUNNY SOUTH Success of Afro-Americans San Antonio, Tex. MANY THRIFTY MERCHANTS Local Business League Sets the Pace For Co-operation and Concentration of Forces In Lone Star State Metropolis—Great Advance In Education and Religious Culture. San Antonio, Tex.—One is struck with astonishment at the sight of two colored policemen patrolling the principal business street in this city. A colored policeman, even in the northern cities, because of his scarcity attracts attention, but to find one in a Texas city causes astonishment. But this is not the only thing colored which causes astonishment when one has made a tour over and through San Antonio. Church edifices, school buildings, business blocks and pretty homes possessed by colored citizens here incite one to marvel at progress being made by the race in this city. San Antonio has more good homes occupied by colored people than any other city in the country. Shacks which one frequently sees in many cities occupied by the poorest class of the race are almost unknown here, and because of Dr. J. T. Walton one of the most successful colored builders in the country, having erected nearly 400 homes here for his race these modern homes, whether pretentious residences or modest, well appointed cottages, displace the insatiant and uninhabitable shacks. Many of these—nearly 400—homes built by Dr. Walton he sold after completion to members of his race; others he has rented to them so reasonably as to make it possible for every member of his race who must rent to live in a neat, modern home. This city has a colored population of 15,000, practically one-third of the city's total population. There is a decided Mexican air about San Antonio, the descendants of the Aztecs being numerous in this city, which was thoroughly Mexican before the United States annexed Texas. The relation, however, existing between whites and blacks and between blacks and Mexicans is perfectly cordial and mutually helpful, friction being reduced to such a low minimum it is hardly observable. The colored man down here is aspiring to economic independence, and this is shown by the number of business establishments now in existence. There are two drug stores, both of which are fine and well conducted establishments; a steam laundry, life insurance company, real estate, plumbing, poultry farming, automobile trucking, printing, undertaking, tailoring, contracting and groceries are a few of the business activities in which men of the race are engaged in this city and in which they have invested a considerable amount of capital. The local Negro Business league here, of which Dr. Walton is president, is a strong factor in inducing members of the race to engage in business and to patronize those already in business. There are four public schools for colored children, and they are among the best school buildings I have seen provided for colored pupils in the south. The colored teachers here receive the same salary as white teachers for the same grade of work, and this, being so unusual in the south, is another fact to excite astonishment and approval in San Antonio. There are nineteen colored churches here—eight Baptist, four M. E., two A. M. E., two Catholic, one Episcopal and two Church of God. There are thirty-two colored teachers, ten physicians, two lawyers and three dentists, one of whom is a woman. Dr. Walton, who has done so much for his race in this city, was a practicing physician up to within six or seven years ago. Seeing the need of decent homes for his race here, he began building homes on a small scale, being his own architect and contractor. The demand for modern homes increases, he gave up the practice of medicine, a profession in which he was a great success, and turned his attention to business. Although possessed of a fine competency, culture and youth, Dr Walton has been so busy building homes for his race he has never stopped to contemplate building a home for himself. It is estimated that the colored people of this city control $350,000 worth of real estate and that they have $150,000 invested in business enterprises, such as enumerated in this letter. A fine U. B. F. temple, with an auditorium and office rooms above and storerooms on the ground floor, was recently plotted, of which W. Sidney Pittman was the architect and Wyndom Brothers of Birmingham, Ala., the contractors. It is a fine building, thoroughly modern and one to which the race can point with pride. Among the men of the race here who co-operate with Dr. Waiton in an effort to improve both the business, educational and civic condition of the race are: H. C. Chids, Dr. William Drake, H. D. Parker, John A. Grumbles, F. E. Lewis, Emmanuel Madison, G. W. Bouldin, J. O. Robinson, Professor S. J. Sutton and Messrs. Blackson WALTON ON PROTESTS. Former Age Editor Wants Race Title Respected. New York.—Lester A. Walton, one of the managers of the Lafayette theater in this city, who was until quite recently the managing editor of the New York Age, takes the New York Sun to task for not capitalizing the noun Negro when using it to designate the Negro race. Mr. Walton's letter to the Sun is as follows: To the Editor of the Sun: Sir—A news article in the Sun of Aug. 21 reads in part as follows: Narragansett Pier, Aug. 20.—An air pageant and folk festival were given this afternoon by a chorus of Indian and negro singers from the Hampton institute. * * * "Roll, Jordan, Roll," Swing Low, Sweet Charlot," My Lord, What a Morning," My Old Kentucky well known negro song heard, while the Indians gave their tribal dances and ceremonial chants. In making mention of "a chorus of Indian and negro singers," "negro songs" and "Indian chants" I note that you see fit to use the capital "I" in the word "Indian," while you make the word "negro" a common noun and fail to dignify it with a capital "N." Why such a marked distinction should be made between the two words I am at a loss to understand. The uncompromising insistence of our publications to designate the Negro race by using a lower case "n" in "Negro" is already giving our etymologists and genealogists no little trouble, and if this practice continues additional complications are bound to arise. Whether general use of the lower case "n" in "Negro" is due in the main to usage or otherwise, it seems that in this particular instance, in this progressive age and era of great reforms, when a determined effort is being made to right all wrongs, kindly consideration should be given a race comprising one-tenth of the total population of the United States, a race strictly American in every respect. Negroes who are proud of being Negroes and who are proud of being Americans native born do not look kindly upon such distinctions as made in the Sun of Aug. 21, for the drawing of such a distinction appears to them as an uncalled for disparagement of the Negro, in which right is sacrificed for usage or what not. Let the Sun be one of the influential journals in the United States to urge that the "N" in Negro be capitalized, not as a matter of sentiment, but as a matter of right and justice. COLORED MEN ARE BUSY. Race In New Jersey Represented In Almost Every Occupation. Washington. Very few of the race have any conception of the great number of occupations in which you will members of the race. There is hardly an occupation known to the United States that the race is not represented in either as owners and operators or laborers. I have just compiled a brief summary of occupations showing the number of men and women of the race employed in them, and the number of men and women of the race who are owners, managers, clerical employees or laborers in these occupations. For instance, in agriculture there are 2,857,732 Negroes employed as follows; Cranberry growers; 3; dairy farmers, 208; farmers, 877,705 florists, 116; fruit growers, 306; truck gardeners, 4,466; nurserymen, 25; turpentine farmers, 113; vine growers, 1 Employed as foremen or managers in agricultural occupation, either for white or Negro owners, the race is well represented. As cranberry bog foremen there is but one Negro employed, but as dairy farm foremen or managers there are 15; farm and plantation foremen. 1,540; truck garden foremen or managers. 68; greenhouse foremen. 4; nursery managers. 7; orchard managers. 41; turpentine foremen and managers. 146 As agricultural laborers there are 1,360,460 members of the race employed in the United States, and as bookkeepers, stenographers and clerks connected with agricultural occupations there are forty-one young men and women of the race employed: while as blacksmiths, stationary engineers and machinists employed on farm or plantation there are 416 sons of Ham employed. Farming has been much exploited of late, and the "back to the farm" movement has helped many to believe that but few of the race were engaged in farming, that is comparatively few, and as to forestry, no reference has been made whatever, yet in forestry 25,056 Negroes find employment. Of this number 181 are owners; 14 are managers; 111 are bosses, overseers or foremen; 17 are foresters; 13 are bookkeepers, stenographers or clerks; 21 are blacksmiths and 96 are stationary engineers. Employed as choppers, log drivers, sawyers, saw filers, scalers, teamsters, tie cutters and lumbermen there are 24,903 Negroes employed in the forestry occupation. So far as agriculture, forestry and animal husbandry is concerned, the number of the race employed as owners and as managers and foremen is especially very encouraging.

If ever Five Points was stirred with a musical event, it was the “Musical |Competltive Extravaganza” given at ‘Fern hal} laSt Friday night by Page, Carrie, Carter and Wade of the Five Points Amusement Co. Long before the curtain rose the house was packed and the audience was entertained by the Morrison orchestra. The only un: usual happening during the evening was the complete loss of Mr. Wade's fingers “in his olio and announce: ment” when his phianges got mixed up with his voice and broomstick in the war song, the saddest feature on ‘the bill. The vaudeville bill was good and the young men deserve great credit for getting together the musi- cal talent which was in reality a com- ‘petitive attraction. The following were responsible for the excellent evening’s entertainment: Mr. C. B.

Advocate's Editor Calls Halt on Journal Reporters. Editor E. D. Cannady of the Portland (Ore.) Advocate in a recent editorial on the attitude of the Oregon Daily Journal and some of that paper's reporters, says: "Editorial expressions of the Oregon Daily Journal have always been fair and just, but some of its reporters ought to be muzzled for the good of the community, especially the fellow who reviewed the circus performances and referred to the two splendid colored bands as coon bands. "A coon is an animal that walks on our legs. Some are white and some are black, but none of them have been known to master the art of music. The Journal editor or the manager of the paper should get rid of a fellow of this callier at once or give him a stern lesson in decency and common sense." Equity Congress Hears General Miles The recent visit of General Nelson A. Miles to the equity congress in Harlem, New York, formed a very interesting part of the propaganda which has been conducted for some time to secure recognition of colored men in the fire department, on the police force, and in the national guard. To further these objects the equity congress of New York was formed in 1910, and it was before the members of this body that General Miles spoke. The general was met at Lenox avenue and One Hundred and Thirty-fourth street by a large detachment of the United States boy scouts, commanded by Major R. C. Wendell, and a detail from the Spanish war camp was also present as escort in charge of Commander Hamilton H. Biunt, a former United States army captain who saw service in Cuba and the Philippines. our Clothiug Cleaned, Pressed or 6105 and We Will Call DISH TAILOR H HOTEL; ladies' Suits Made to Order for are furnished.

J.-The East Orange social settlement, though but a little over a year old, is one of the powers for good in Essex county. It is under the auspices of the ladies' guild of the Munn Avenue Presbyterian church of East Orange, N. J., of which the following ladies are the officers; Mrs Geo. R. Howe, president; Mrs. Cyrus Hitchcock, secretary, and Mrs. Dr Charles A. Groves, treasurer. For fifty years the Munn Avenue church has taken front rank in its uplift work for colored people all over the country. One-hady of the guild has been especially nuturing in her work for the settlement, Mrs. M. L. Cook. In April, 1913, the services of Mr. and Mrs. W. P. Burrell of Virginia were secured, and through them the settlement was organized and placed in practical operation. The purposes as taken from the Settlement folder give a clear idea of the work of the settlement. It says: The East Orange social settlement is conducted for the betterment of the community life of the colored people of East Orange. Its purpose is to help people to help themselves, to extend a sympathetic hand to those who may, because of circumstances, feel downtrodden and oppressed, to hold open the door of hope to every worthy colored boy and girl and to reclaim those who are erring. The settlement house is a model of neatness and cleanliness, and in itself is a powerful object lesson to the many children who come within its portals daily and who are pleased to call it home. Habits of cleanliness, thrift and self respect are inculcated, and the children of the settlement are taught to be jealous of their good name. Each child who is enrolled becomes a part of the settlement family, and Mrs. Burrell becomes the "little mother," while Mr. Burrell is the "big brother" of every one. As no two children are alike in disposition and requirements, a careful study made of every child in order to find out how he or she may best be helped. Race pride is taught through the study of prominent examples of Negro manhood and womanhood. The children are taught that here is hope for them and that they will be rewarded according to their merit, in spite of their color. The model flat, or home, as it might better be called, shows that a home can be clean and healthy though humble, and that one does not have to sell himself to the installment man in order to be happy. The settlement teaches that it is better to watch the cost of high living than to be bothered about the so called high cost of living. Through its cooking classes it shows how one may live well and yet cheaply. The doctrine of self help underlies all the work of the settlement, and the children are taught to depend on themselves for success in all things. The settlement seeks to help not only the children, but the parents are also visited in their homes and timely suggestions made as to how they may make the most of life for themselves and their little ones. The sick are visited, the hungry are fed, the naked clothed and those in distress of any kind receive a helping hand. The influence of the settlement for good is recognized on all sides and the judge of the children's court of Essex county has commended children to its care and supervision. THE J. E. SPINGARN MEDAL Announcement of Conditions Upon Which It Shall Be Awarded. Dr. J. E. Spingarn offers to furnish annually a gold medal not to cost more than $100, and to be awarded for the highest or noblest achievement by an American Negro during the preceding year, upon the following terms and conditions: The board of directors of the National Association For the Advancement of Colored People shall select five persons, who may or may not be members of that board, as the committee of award, and this committee shall have full charge of the awarding of the medal, and its decision in regard to all matters connected with the med, al shall be final. Preferably at the annual conference on the Negro, held under the auspices of the National Association For the Advancement of Colored People, this medal shall be awarded, with appropriate ceremonies, to the man or woman of African descent and of American citizenship who shall have made the highest achievement during the preceding year in any field of elevated or honorable human endeavor, and the committee of award shall decide for itself in each year what particular act deserves the highest acclaim, and nothing in this section shall be understood to limit their choice in any way to any one field, whether that field be intellectual, spiritual, physical, scientific, commercial, educational or any other. The committee of award may withhold the award of the medal in any year if no achievement seems to merit it an award, and in that event the committee may employ the money as withheld for the creation of one or more medals the following year or years, to be awarded as a second, third or other prize in accordance with the same principles. The committee on award consists of Bishop John Hurst, chairman; Hon. William Howard Taft; Dr. James A. Dillard; John Hope and Oswald Garrison Villard.

Tuskegee Institute, His Alma Mater, Proud of Him and His Record—No Question, However Taxing to American Statesman or Publicist, Seems Too Difficult For Him. New York. — Everybody's Magazine for September, 1914, published in New York city, contains the announcement that its first prize of $500 for the best letter on the subject. "What We've Learned About Rum, or Rum and Remedies," has been awarded to Isaac Fisher, formerly of Vicksburg, Miss., but now of Tuskegee institute, Alabama. Of his essay the editors of Everybody's Magazine say: "The article below is selected by us from some 9,000 letters as the best all round discussion of rum. Certain other letters have presented more extensive scientific analysis, but have confined the discussion to particular phases. Others have been brilliant in literary quality, but lacking in logical progression and care in the statement of facts. The letter below (Mr. Fisher's) sums up the facts about rum with admirable comprehensiveness and a telling directness of style and offers some remarkably same suggestions." What will send a thrill of pride through the hearts of all colored people beneath the flags of many nations is the fact that Isaac Fisher is a Negro, whom every colored man, woman and child may proudly claim as brother. If any man in America deserves the title "doctor of philosophy" it is this man, because he has done again and again more work in the philosophic exposition of economic questions of worldwide importance than any university has ever required of a candidate for the doctorate. His past record fully bears out this statement. Without even mentioning a large number of contests in which he has been winner and in which the prizes were less than $10, this man, a Negro, a Tuskegee graduate. In nationwide contests with the best brains in America of all races, has been prize winner some twenty or more times, and he has won on the following subjects, either one of which contains original work of the quality—higher than the quality—of the theses required by universities from candidates seeking the degree of doctor of philosophy. "What We've Learned About the Rum Question," $500. "German and American Methods of Regulating Trusts," $400. (Alone and unaided Mr. Fisher had to master in a few months sufficient reading knowledge of German to be able to write this essay.) "Ten Best Reasons Why People Should Go to Missouri," $100. "A Plan to Give the South a System of Highways Suited to Its Needs," $100. "Scales and the Housewife," $50. "Digest of the Uses of Adding Machines," $20. "The Relation Between Manual Training In the Public Schools and Industrial Education and Efficiency." $10 "The Most Practicable Method of Beginning a Reduction of the Tariff honorable mention. (This essay was upon the request of its chief examiner sent to the United States tariff board for its use.) These are only the big essays Mr. Fisher has written. At the recent meeting of the Associated Advertising Clubs of the World in Toronto, Canada. Mr. Fisher's paper on "Advertising and Selling" was selected by the committee on awards as one of the "forty-nine best on the subject," thereby giving him a winning place in the first international contest he had entered. Tuskegee institute, his alma mater, is very prend of him and his record. He is one of her most loyal sons, and nothing seems to give him greater pleasure than to say that he owes everything to Tuskegee. He has studied in no other school. It may be that the race has not fully realized the real significance of what Mr. Fisher is doing for the race in his own way and line. In verity he is blazing a broad trail for us all in a direction and with a success not true of any other colored person, and he is a master in his line. No question, however taxing to the American statesman or publicist, seems too difficult for him and the thing which makes glad the heart of every loyal Negro is that, how ever enlighten and learned the other competitors and writers, when Mr. Fisher, working under his famous not to, used with telling effect in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch essay and in the essay on rum—"Get the Truth"—turns his mind to the analysis of a question, judges who do not know his race almost invariably place the results of his investigations, his essays, his philosophy, at the head of all those who compete. What the colored people want Isaac Fisher to do now is to prepare some books for and about the Negro—some enduring works that colored children may read and be helped: some deathless classic that will inspire the race through all times. He is at present editing the Negro Farmer at Tuskegee institute. Cleaning, Pressing, Repairing and Dyeing Goods Called tor and Delivered Establihed 1904 DOS.

SHAW, OF DALLAS, One of the most handsomely appointed luncheons of the season was last Wednesday night when Mrs. John Nelson entertained in honor of her house guest, Mrs. W. H. Shaw of Dallas, Texas. Cards were played at four tables until 12 o'clock, when the guests were told to come into the dining room. When the doors were opened silence prevailed for a few moments, as everyone was spellbound. The table, which was set for 22, was one round of beauty. Fern leaves and baskets of sweet peas formed an attractive centerpiece, while shaded candies graced each corner. Eight courses were served by the little Morris sisters, who were attired in eyelet embroidery. Around the banquet table were gathered Mrs. W. H. Shaw, Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Carey, Mr. and Mrs. Wesley Morrison, Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Green, Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Crenshaw, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Eaton, Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Howard, Mesdames Troutman, Callaway, H. Coleman, C. Brown, E Stone, Morris, Harding, and Mr. Tom Troutman and Mr. Jno. Nelson. At cards Mrs. H. Eaton was the winner of first prize, Mrs. W. J. Carey second, Mr. Wesley Morrison third, while Mr. J. C. Crenshaw captured the booby. In the wee, wee hours of the morning the guests were loth to depart after declaring they had spent an evening as only Mrs. Nelson knows how to arrange, and welcoming Mrs. Shaw to Denver again. "P. A." Denver has another new and modern business enterprise. Mr. E. V. Cammel and Mr. D. M. Hudson have recently opened an up-to-date and modernly equipped undertaking parlor at 2807 Welton street and are prepared to give the people the very best modern service in that line. This new firm desires to inform the public that they are here to serve the people and kindly solicit their patronage and assure polite service to all. All persons who, at any time, may be numbered with the unfortunate in the way of bereavement from the loss of their loved ones, will do well to consult this firm and get facts and particulars as to their ability to serve the public.—Adv. LAID TO REST-ODD FELLOWS SAY LAST RITES. Rev. Jas. Washington Officiates. Sadly but impressively was the march of the Odd Fellows and Masons who paid their last respects to our pioneer brother and friend, John R. Hallowell, last Tuesday, to Campbell A. M. E. church, where Rev. fas. Washington officiated. His worth and high esteem in which he was held by his friends and brothers was shown by the beautiful floral offerings. Rev. Washington, himself an Odd Fellow and high Mason, preached a very instructive, helpful and thought-filled sermon. All of the fraternity sat up and took notice of the duties, obligations and responsibilities as shown by the sincere pastor. The whole community mourns the loss of John R. Hallowell. May his ashes rest in Rev. J. H. Brown, D. D., is in the city and will preach at Campbell A. M. E. church Sunday at 11 a. m. and attend the service at Shorter Sunday evening. Dr. Brown is en route to Oklahoma, having transferred from the Colorado conference where he has served for ten years and is well known by a host of people in Colorado. He leaves the conference at his own request. While his many friends regret exceedingly to give him up, he goes to a field of bright prospects and great possibilities. Dr. Brown has a son-in-law who is a man of high rank in Oklahoma; also a daughter, who has been teaching in Douglas high school in Oklahoma City, Okla., for nine years. Dr. Brown's family is in Ogden, Utah, where he has pastored for the last two years. REV. STEPHEN B. F. LOWE ENTER- TAINED AT CONFERENCE. While a guest of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Embry, 802 North Walnut, and during his brief absence from the sessions of the conference, Rev. Stephen Lowe, one of the officials of Shorter church, was royally honored by both the host and hostess. Included in the number were Mrs. Chas. Banks, wife of a Mound Byou bank, also Mr. and Mrs. Garretts. To complete his social popularity, Mr. Frank J. Lager, secretary of the Trustee Board of People's M. E. church, took an automobile parly to Manitou, consisting of Mrs. Kelly of the Springs, Miss Margaret Alexander and Delegate Caille M. Thompson of Campbell, and a more pleasant time was never enjoyed by anyone. Rev. Lowe is all smiles and deeply grateful for the favors shown and social recognition given him and the Denverites.
