Denver Star

The Denver Star Has The Largest Circulation Among Colored People. Get Wise and Advertise. The Denver Star ESTABLISHED 1888 The papers formerly known as The Statesman and The Independent, have been merged into The Denver Star TWENTY-SIXTH YEAR Number 57 DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, OCT. 17, 1914 FIVE CENTS A COPY Rev. Quincy Ewing, a Southern Caucasion, Born and Reared in Mississippi, Shows the Policy of the South is to Keep the Afro-American in Inferior Status. Why is it that in every Southern city no Negro is allowed to witness a dramatic performance, or a baseball game, from a first-class seat? In every large city, there are hundreds of Negroes, who gladly pay for first-class seats at the theater and the ball game, were they permitted.to. It can hardly be that permission is withheld because theaters and baseball games are so well attended by half the population that first-class seats could not be furnished for the other half. As a matter of fact, theater-auditorium and baseball grandstands are seldom crowded; the rule is, not all first-class seats occupied, but many vacant. Surely as simple as moving from seat to seat a makeshift screen in a street car, would it be to set apart a certain number of seats in the dress-circle of every theater and in the grandstand of every baseball park, for Negro patrons. The reason why this is not done, is perfectly obvious; it would be intolerable to the average Southern man or woman to sit through the hours of a theatrical performance or a baseball game on terms of accommodation with Negroes even with a screen between. Negroes would look out of place, out of status, in the dress circle or the grandstand; their place, signifying their status, is the peanut-gallery, or the bleachers. Consider further that, while no Negro, no matter what his occupation, or personal refinement, or intellectual culture or moral character, is allowed to travel in a Pullman car between state lines, or to enter as a guest a hotel patronized by white people, the blackest of Negro nurses and valets are given food and shelter in all first-class hotels. and occasion neither disgust or surprise in the Pullman cars. Here again the heart of the race problem is laid bare. The black nurse with a white baby in her arms, the black valet looking after the comfort of a white invalid, have the label of their inferiority conspicuously upon them; they understand themselves, and everybody understands them to be servants, enjoying certain privileges for the sake of the person served. Almost anything the Negro may do in the South, and anywhere he may go, provided the manner of his doing and his going is that of an inferior. Such is the premium put upon his inferiority; such his inducement to maintain it. A training school for delinquent colored youth has been established in Harris County, Texas. By Rev. Quiney Ewing But we are very far from needing to rely upon any general consideration in support of the proposition advanced above. It is supported by evidences on every hand, waiting only the eye of recognition. Scarcely a day passes but something is said or done with this end in view, to emphasize, lest they forget, the conviction for both white man and Negro that the latter is and must remain an inferior. Let me instance a few such evidences. Consider, first, the "Jim Crow" legislation in the manner of its enforcement. Such legislation is supposed to have for its object the separation of the races in trains, street cars, etc., to save the white people from occasional contact with drunken, rowdy, illsmelling Negroes, and to prevent personal encounters between the whites and blacks. Members of the different races occupy the same cars, separated only by absurdly inadequate little open-mesh wire screens, so tiny and light that a conductor can move them from one seat to another with the strength of his little finger. Needless to add, these screens would serve to obscure neither sound, signt, nor smell of drunken rowdies, who sat behind them! In summer cars, black and white passengers may be separated not even by a make-believe screen; they are simply required, respectively, to occupy certain seats in the front or the back end of the cars. In Birmingham, Alabama, the front seats are assigned to Negroes in all closed cars, and the back seats in all open ones. Why the front seats in the one case, and the back seats in the other, it is not easy to understand in the light of the letter and alleged spirit of the Jim Crow law! The underlying purpose of the law is clearly not the separation of the races in space; for public sentiment does not insist upon its fulfilment to that end. The underlying purpose of it would seem to be the separation of the races in status. The doctrine of inequality would be attacked if white and black passengers rode in public conveyances on equal terms; therefore the Negro who rides in a public conveyance must do so, not as of undoubted right, but as with the white man's regulation. "This place you may occupy, that other you may not, because I am I and you are you, lest to you or to me it should be obscured that I am I and you are you." Such is the real spirit of the Jim Crow laws. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, OCT. 17, 1914 Carlson, The Man OF The Hour. "With All Our Might For Every Right, With Right To Live Is Right To Work." Republican Party Negroes Greatest Hope. GEORGE A. CARLSON, Republican Candidate for Governor, believes in good roads, and in his opening speech of the present campaign he went on record as strongly favoring constructive work in the up-building of the State, chief of which was the construction, maintenance and improvement of the highways. This emphatic endorsement of the good roads work in Colorado meets with hearty response from citizens all over the state regardless of party. The Republican State Platform endorses good roads, and Mr. Carlson's statement not only reiterates what has been said by the Republicans, but brings the work before the public in a manner in which no other candidate has presented the subj His declaration in favor of good roads, as quoted from his Denver speech, follows: "From now on, Colorado must live in the future and not in the past. This is a time for a builder and not for the destructionist. Colorado must begin to cash in on her possibilities. To do good roads are necessary. The farmer must be brought closer to his market; the miner, closer to his mill. There is a growing national feeling in favor of seeing America first. Because of the war abroad, this movement has been given added impetus. Citizens who formerly sought recreation abroad and who have planned trips to foreign shores are now visiting the beauty spots of our own country. If Colorado will prepare herself to accommodate this influx of visitors, a large part of the millions, now spent at the show places of Europe, will be spent in Colorado, the show state of America. Why shouldn't this be true? Here, dozens of mountains that proudly and majestically raise their peaks to heaven, are the equal in magnificence of the Jungfrau and the Matterhorn. Our skies are the bluest in the world. Our sunsets are as rich and sublime as those of the Bay of Naples. Our air is pure, our sunshine is bright. Mountain streams, tumbling and rushing down to meet the placid rivers of the plains, teem with jumping fish and direct the footsteps of every sportsman towards Colorado. Here are canyons so deep the sun has never penetrated to their bottoms. The magic of sun and air and the pines of our hills give health to the invalid. Our plains are tertile. The earth's crust is a veritable treasure house. Build a network of the finest roads in the world into every corner of the State. Show our unequaled resources to the traveling public and the visitor will become a resident, build a home and invest money here." What Patterson thought of Thomas in 1900. "Forgetful of everything he has advocated, blinded by ambition for a seat in the United States Senate he threw himself into the service of the great corporations." What Thomas thought of Patterson in 1900: "Your enmity to corporation designs is a pursuit that seems to be profitable. It falls upon all them that do not seek the shelter of your clientage. Is it not possible, Mr. Patterson, that in your eagerness for my undoing you measure me unconsciously with your own personal standards." Will Patterson tell the people of Colorado the difference between Julius Aichele, "The Grafter," as he styled him years ago and Julius Aichele, Patterson's candidate for the state senate? Is Tom Hyder a better man to represent the people of Denver in the house of representatives now than he was as a Speer henchman when Patterson called him every objectionable name when Speer was Mayor of Denver? Why is a candidate for political honor as Patterson now sleeping in the same bed with whom he as a private citizen has often charged with being fit subjects for the penitentiary? Incidentally, will Patterson kindly state why as a member of the United States Senate he voted to give the waters State historian & New ural History FIVE CENTS A COFF. Let The People Rule And Decide Nashville, Tenn.—This city will witness the gathering of what is probably the most important gathering a moong colored churchmen ever held in this country. It has been called by a number of leading members of the M. E. church, and there will most likely be considered some plans for the colored membership of the church assuming what may be called an autonomous relation with the white element of the denomination. The meeting is to take place on or about Oct. 22. Wet or Dry, will enforce their will, says Carlson. Star Quotes His Exact Words "One question a great many of you are seriously considering is the dry amendment. I don't want a single voter to have a shadow of doubt in his mind of my official couse, and private views on this question. I shall vote for a dry Colorado. This has been my conscientious conviction for many years. A majority of the voters will determine whether this state is to be wet or dry. If the state is voted dry, I pledge the people that I will keep the state dry. If the state is not voted dry, I The committee, which sent out invitations for the meeting is headed by the Rev. W.

Urge Colored Men to Regis- Baltimore, Md.—Sharp criticism of Republicans who are elected to office in Maryland and then fail to give recognition to the colored men who iaded them in making their goal, was voiced by several speakers who attended a meeting at Republican headquarters last week to discuss plans for getting the full colored vote registered. Some of the Republican leaders were alarmed at the fact that only 5,000 colored voters registered at the first sitting two weeks ago. This number was considerably augmented by the registration this Tuesday and Wednesday, however Dr. Ernest Lyons adverted to the fact that Governor Goldsborough, a Republican, had given the race practically no political recognition and added that the reason the Progressives polled the majority of the colored vote in Baltimore in the presidential election in 1912 was because Republican leaders in Maryland usually forgot all about voters after election. The Rev. W. M. Alexander and others spoke in a similar vein, but pledged themselves to get upwards of 20,000 colored voters on the registration books in this city. GOV. GEO. A. CARLSON will enforce the laws as they are. The liquor interests will be fully protected in the rights that the law gives them Democratic leaders in this campaign are advocating local option' Seven years ago, when a Republican legislature was passing the present local option bill, it met with the solid opposition of the same Democratic leaders. Their present candidate for Governor fought the local option bill in the columns of his paper. of the Rio Grande River to Old Mexico? Patterson! Inconsistency One and Inseparable The insurrections in Colorado have cost the State $3,000,000. Patterson has supported every insurrection occurring in the state. The annual interest now paid on those insurrection bonds would construct all of the buildings built annually at every institution in the state. The Republican Party presents state sovereignty as the only state issue and protection as the only national issue of the campaign. The Shaffroth Democratic administration ran behind its income $316,424,36 each year. Every Republican administration has paid all of its current expenses and left money in the treasury. Under Democratic administration Colorado is under the control of borrowed troops. we are in the hands of a Federal Receiver. Elect the Republican ticket, send back the Federal soldiers, show our ability to maintain state sovereignty and prosperity will return to our doors. No man is allowed to work and support his family under Federal control of Huerfano and Las Animas counties unless he lived there preceding the strike. Seems to be "the kingdom of Las Animas" whether under Jeff Farr or President control. November 3rd is the day to open the gate through which we can "turn the rascals out."

After singing "Jesus Savior of My Soul," they burst in upon the pastor with arms laden with meats, groceries, vegetables and preserves. A lovely evening was spent and many expressions were made by the members of the Stewardess Board as to the esteem and high regard in which they held their pastor and wife. Before Rev. and Mrs. Washington could recover from the festivities of Friday evening, at nine o'clock Monday evening in the far distant was heard the strains of "There's a Stranger at the Door." As the strains grew stronger and stronger there was a rap at the door and a host of members and friends of Campbell rushed in upon the pastor and his wife. After making their way to the dining room and relieving themselves of their burdens, very appropriate speeches of presentation were made by Mesdames G. A. J. Spires and Maud Lee, to which the pastor made a brief, pointed and touching response. A very delightful luncheon was served after which the guests departed, having spent one pleasant evening of mirth and song, leaving the pastor and family to look through the large assortment and abundant supply of groceries, fruits, vegetables and preserves.

Milton Waldron in his "peace sermon" at Shiloh Baptist church in this city on Sunday, Oct. 4. In part said: "President Wilson is a good Bible student as well as a good politician. His proclamation calling upon the American nation to pray for the cessation of the European war proves that he has studied patiently and faithfully the holy Scriptures as well as the history of mankind or he would not have seen the necessity of coupling contrition and confession of sins by this nation with its petitions for mercy upon other nations. The president's call to prayer is not only a great state paper; it is a wonderful treatise on prayer and is worthy of a permanent place in the religious literature of the country." Dr. Waldron used as his text the following passages of Scripture: "Pray one for another" (James v. 16), "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give unto you" (John xiv. 27), "Acquaint now thyself with God and be at peace, thereby good shall come to thee" (Job v. 16). He said: "This is the first time in the history of America and no doubt the first time in the history of the world that the head of a great nation has called upon that entire people to pray that war may cease among other and distant nations with whom it was not in conflict. Surely a new day and a new hope are dawning for our own country and the other nations of the earth. The doctrine of brotherhood of all men is beginning to assert itself, and nations as well as individuals are realizing that they are their brothers' keepers." The speaker said: "The kaiser has been urging the people to 'pray God to give victory to our side.' Abraham Lincoln during the civil war urged the people of his country to pray God that we may be sure to be on his side." This latter prayer is the one which we and the belligerent nations need to pray now, and it is the only petition which is sure of an answer. "Calamities drive individuals and nations to the heart of God." It is said that there are three times as many people attending church now as there were before the European war started. While the conflict across the waters is awful and must be deprecated by every one yet it is not an unmixed evil. It is teaching men that only God can give an abiding peace. "The terrible war raging in Europe is bringing to the minds of men, as nothing else can, the awful consequences of national sins. Each one of the European nations now at war has been guilty of great crimes against God and humanity, and they are atoning for these sins in the blood of the best of their sons. God makes the wrath of men to praise him and the remainder he restrains. We do well to pray for our brethren across the ocean, and as we pray let us confess our own sins and the sins of our nation and turn from them and make amends for the numberless crimes this country has committed upon the weak of our own land, or God will soon begin to make an inquisition for blood in this country."

Washington through New Jersey has been the means of calling public attention to many historical facts concerning the activities of the colored citizens of (he state in the past and of showing what those of the present are doing. It bas also centered attention on the great Possibilities open to the race to be come large landowners, thrifty farmers and leaders in education, business and civic movements. ‘The group of small but thrifty com. munities in the southwestern part of f a a wae ee i oe J rs Pee OO BY) Pee 4 ae ae | eas | +o Essex county, known as the Oranges, has a population of 100,000, of whom 10,000 are colored. ‘These communities are rich in their association of early colonial and antebellum history. The Negro was not an inactive or silent spectator during those stirring times. He participated in every struggle and bravely bore his part in the long con- test for liberty of the American colo- nist. The battles of Springficld and Orange mountain colony and other Rev- olutionary struggles have indelibly re- corded his bravery and valor. During the civil war New Jersey sent more than a regiment of brave black boys and several battalions in the late Span- ish-American war. These undeniable facts prove the loyalty, devotion and patriotism of the Negroes of New Jer- sey in every crisis concerning the safe- ty of the Atnerican flag. In the civic affairs of the state be has played well bis part. Contesting against every unfair advantage and race proscription, he has maintained himself and gathered the small crumbs of opportunity together and still contin- ues to rise and retain a place among the struggling and progressive masses. In the Oranges he has accumulate? nearly $500,000 in real estate, no! which be inherited or received inv quest, but bas acquired by sacrifice and labor. Negroes own many large and beautiful church buildings. an Old Folks’ home and several fraternal and business buildings. In the charitable work they have contributed vers large- ly in proportion to their means. Shortly sfter the war an old colored woman gave her earnings of many years to the work of the temperance cause. and the imposing structure at Main and Commerce streets, Orange, valued at more than $50,000, stands on the site bought by the savings of this old pioneer woman, who bequeathed her estate for that work. There re- mains much yet to be done in this fair commonwealth that these people may have a fair chance in the battle of Iife. ‘Those that have located in the agricul- tural districts have done well. Many own large, productive farms and ‘each year, by their push and industry, add to thelr possessions. S The men who organized themselves into a state committee for the purpose of making the trip of Dr. Washington and his party a tremendous success were imbued with race pride. They were eager for their guests to see the achievements of the race in the state and for the people of the state to see and hear Dr. Washington, who was In- troduced at one of the meetings by & \wealthy and infuential white man as one of the truly great men of America. The leading spirit in organizing the various cities and towns for the trip was W. P. Burrell, head of the social settlement work for colored children In East Orange. Mr. Burrell was the executive secre- tarygof the state committee, and upon bisa devolved the task of arranging for dates aud places for all the meetings. In thin he was ably assisted by Mr. James N. Vandervall, chairman of the tour committee, together with the lo cal committees in the various towns. There was work enough to have kept several stenographers busy for many weeks, yet this progressive man of great energy and mental strength did practically the whole Job. In speaking of howgthe state organization was per- fected @itr, Burrell very wittily says: “Phere was a convention held, and only two persons were present. 1 made Mr. Vandervall chairman, and Mr. Vandervall nominated me for sec- retary, and the meeting adjourned.” Mr. Burrell is a born organizer and knows how to handle large crowds He was the soul of wit throughout the tour and made a good impression upon everybody. He is doing a splendid work in East Orange in the conduct of the sociul settlement work. He has had many years’ experience in baudling the ree- ords of large business and fraternal concerns and is thoroughly competent as an investigator of conditions among our people in the work to which be and Mrs. Burrell are giving their best energy, brain and skill. Mr. Burrell by a master hand linked the eleven cities and towns visited by Dr. Wash- ington and his party into a chain of perfect correspondence, so that the sebedule from the start was kept in the minutest detail. ‘The local committee in each town was on hand to receive the visitors, entertain them and then deliver them to their associates In the next place to be visited. In many instances the conveyances used were owned by the members of the committee represent ing the colored people, and, on the other hand, the white people furnished their autos and other rigs for the use of Dr. Washington and’ his guests Credit is due every man who co-op erated in the work, but everybody agrees that the Hon's share belongs to Messrs. Vandervall and Burrell, chair. man and secretary respectively. : é = - e f Ce Te rere, ES ve ba : ben not ca! os 7 i DP j a 6 : we im : rig f $ DRINK CAPITOL BEER | DENVER’S PRIDE : ‘The purity of Capitol Beer is demonstrated by its superior flavor | end strength-giving qualities.

Philadelphia, Pa.—There are many young women In this city who are mak- ing good and at the same time inspir- Ing others to go forward along all lines of useful endeavor and in this way are helping to work out some of the many hard problems whieh confront our peo ple. In this number is to be found Miss Georgiana H. Sherman, who is consid ered a musical wonder. Miss Sherman, though young in years, has had quite a wide experi- ence. By her ability and singleness of purpose she has advanced to the front. She was born in Williamsport, Pa., and received her carly training In the pub- lic schools of her native town. After finishing the common school course she attended the Dickinson seminary, where she took a thorough course in music. In 1909 her parents moved to this city, and Miss Sherman entered: the Royal Conservatory of Music, where she took a course in artistic piano play- ing. She made good use of ber time while studying music, being one of the collectors for the National Benetit asso clation of Washington. As in music, she was a success 1s a collector. Miss Sherman has accompanied some of the leading singers in this section of the country. In the fall of 1913 she ac- cepted a position with the Southland sextet, America’s premier Jubilee com- Pany. With this company she toured Michigan, Indiana and Ohio, making great hits for herself and company. While on the tour Miss Sherman re- ceived many press comments, as well as popular applause. She is 4 lover of sacred music, in which she specializes. She possesses a rich mezzo soprano voice and aspires to become an ora- torio singer. She is a member of the Cnion Baptist chureb here. Since her return from the west she has been active in chureb work.

Issued His Paper Daily During Recent Odd Fellows' Convention. The National Negro Press association extends congratulations to J. Thomas Harrison, editor of the Cambridge (Mass.) Advocate, on his success in issuing the Advocate daily during the recent convention of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows held in Boston. Mr. Harrison has long been considered one of our most progressive newspaper men of the younger set, and his recent venture confirms the high estimate of his ability to do things worth while. The great number of delegates and visitors to the convention were greatly surprised when they found the news of the convention in the Advocate every day. They at once became interested in the man who had the courage to make such an undertaking, and many sought the office of the sprightly little weekly which had the spunk to make its appearance every day. But this was in Cambridge, the historic New England college town, and the man behind the gun a persistent advocate of the possibilities and manhood rights of his race. What Mr. Harrison has done along this line others may do when the occasion presents itself. One by one our business men are beginning to launch out further into the arena of constructive effort. They are learning that up through difficulties is the way to success, and it is fitting that the race press should lead. The Advocate flies the national colors at its head and the name of the press association in a box at the head of its editorial page. Large Parochial School In New York. Large Parochial School In New York. The opening of a large parochial school for colored children in New York the latter part of September by the mother superior of the Sisterhood of the Blessed Sacrament created unusual interest among our people in the city. The enrollment is 360 boys and girls. Other schools for colored children fostered by Miss Catherine Drexel, which were opened on the same date, are one each in Boston, Cincinnati and St. Louis. The total number of schools directly under Miss Drexel's financial supervision is sixteen in various parts of the country. The four schools opened in September, including a home for the sisters in connection with the school in New York, cost over $300,000. Indian children are also admitted to these schools on the same basis as the colored children are. Manager Newport News Star Resigns. H. C. Young, who has been serving in the capacity of business manager of the Star at Newport News, Va., for some time, has resigned. In speaking editorially of Mr. Young's leave taking, Editor Matt N. Lewis of the Star says: "With this issue of the Star, Sept. 25, our manager, H. C. Young, severs his relation with this paper and goes back to Norfolk to take up the work which he left when he came to us. We are thoroughly convinced that newspaper men who make a success must be born to the work and the practice, but increase their innate efficiency. All we can do is to hope that we may be able to find the person who shall be able to take the management of the Star office and carry it on as efficiently and successfully as Mr. Young has done during the several months he has had the management." Big Victory For Anti-saloon League. At the September election in Virginia the Anti-saloon league of the state won a great victory over the Liquor interests of the state. The law against the sale of intoxicating beverages in the state goes into effect the 1st-of November, 1916. Women Christian Temperance unions through out the country are rejoicing over the victory of the Virginia organization and will fight the liquor sellers in their respective communities with renewed determination. FOREMOST IN BUSINESS How Mme. C. J. Walker Is Helping Women of the Race. Boston.—Among the noted business women from a distance who attended the recent session of the great convention of Odd Fellows were Madam C. J. Walker of Indianapolis, Ind., and Miss Lelia W. Robinson of New York. Both women have won distinction in their chosen line of business and have opened up opportunities for other women in various parts of this country, the West Indies, Bermuda and Cuba, to enter the business arena. Madam Walker believes in the doctrine of self help, for she has worked her way up from the plantation in the south to a place in the front rank of the race's business women. She is always ready to encourage and assist those of her race who are industrious and who are willing to make a sacrifice of pleasure in order to better their condition. She is actively engaged at the present time in building out of her income a school in Africa. She also gives liberally to the various charitable institutions of Indianapolis and has given five scholarships to students at the Tuskegee (Ala.) institute, of which Dr. Booker T. Washington is president. It is said that the number of women whom Madam Walker has made it possible to engage in businesses of their own is 2,000. She attends a large number of the big conventions held by our people, both religious and secular, and is therefore well known among those who are doing things worth while. STATISTICS SHOW THRIFT. Occupations In Which the Race Is Engaged Exclusive of Farming. By RALPH W. TYLER. Washington.-Quite recently I gave the number of colored men engaged in agriculture, forestry and animal husbandry in the United States. The number, especially of those who are owners, managers or foremen, must have proved a revelation. That the race does not confine its operations exclusively to the farm, but extends its operations practically to every other industry, is shown by the number employed, either as owners, managers, foremen or laborers, in the extraction of minerals and the like. Engaged in coal mining there are 40,623 members of the race employed. Of these twelve are owners or operators, two are officials of companies, eight are managers or superintendents, 116 are bosses, foremen or overseers, seventeen are bookkeepers, cashiers or accountants, eight are clerks, four are draftsmen, one of whom is a woman; fifteen are electricians or electrical engineers and thirteen are mining engineers, the remainder of the more than 40,000 engaged in coal mining being distributed as laborers, car builders, machinists, drillers, drivers, motormen and the many other occupations associated with coal mining. In copper mining there are 282 members of the race engaged; none as owner, official, manager or superintendent, but at least one as a boss. In this branch of mining, however, there are three engineers who are identified with the race. In gold and silver mining there are 302 Negroes employed, two of whom are owners and four of whom are mining, civil or mechanical engineers, while the balance employed are distributed among the various other departments of gold and silver mining. There are 5,379 members of the race engaged in ore mining, fourteen of whom are owners or operators, one as manager or superintendent, nine as bosses, foremen or overseers, one as mining engineer and ten as stationary engineers, the remainder being mechanics, clerks, motormen, laborers and various other employees. Engaged in lead and zinc mining there are 27S members of the race, three of whom are mining or mechanical engineers, seven are drillers, and the remainder are laborers and skilled mechanics. Engaged in quarrying there are 10.348 colored men, thirty-eight of whom are owners or operators, four as managers, thirty-nine as foremen or overseers, four as clerks, fifty-eight as stationary engineers, two as inspectors, fifty three as blacksmiths, seven as carpenters and the balance distributed among the skilled laborers and unskilled laborers connected with quarrying. I have ascertained that in the oil and gas well industry there are 266 colored men employed, six of whom are owners, two as bosses, eight as engineers, eight as drillers, seven as tool dressers, the remainder being engaged in common labor or other occupations connected with drilling for oil and gas. In the production of salt, oil and natural gas—namely, employed in the factories or refineries—there are 208 colored men, one of whom is an owner, three as bosses or foremen, eight as coopers, while the remainder of the 208 employed are engaged as skilled and unskilled laborers and in other occupations required in the production of salt, oil and gas. In all there are 62,755 members of the race engaged in the extraction of minerals in this country, a number that testifies to the fact that the race confines its efforts to no one single occupation. Questions Candidates For Questions Candidates For Congress. The National Association For the Advancement of Colored People, New York, has sent the following questionnaire to all candidates for congress of the Republican, Democratic and Progressive parties: Will you, if elected, vote against any measure abrogating the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments? Will you vote against segregation in the federal service, presidential segregation in the District of Columbia, segregation in jimcrow cars in the District of Columbia? Regardless of whether you advocate racial intermarriage, will you oppose the passage of a law making such marriage in the District of Columbia invalid, since the enactment by states of such laws has led to the degradation of Negro women and children? Do you under any circumstances justify lynching? Do you favor the enforcement of clause 2 of the fourteenth amendment to the constitution? The association requests an answer to the above from each candidate by Monday, Oct. 12. John Woodson Appointed Fireman. John Woodson, who recently passed a successful examination as a candidate for the New York fire department, has been assigned to duty by Commissioner Adamson. Mr. Woodson was third on the eligible list of civil service applicants. He will work on truck 106, at 124 Greenpoint avenue, Brooklyn. Mr. Woodson is perhaps the first Afro-American to receive an appointment to the fire department in New York city. New Branch of Advancement Society. The Newark (N. J.) branch of the National Association For the Advancement of Colored People held a big public meeting at the Bethany Baptist church in Newark. Thursday evening, Oct. 8, at which Mr. Oswald Garrison Villard of New York was the principal speaker. Rev. Dr. R. D. Wynn, pastor of the church, presided. The meeting was largely attended, and much enthusiasm prevailed.

Lumbago is a form of rheumatism, and yields perfectly to Sloan's, which penetrates quickly all in through the sore, tender muscles, limbers up the back and makes it feel fine. Get a bottle of Sloan's Liniment for 25 cents of any druggist and have it in the house—against colds, sore and swollen joints, rheumatism, neuralgia, sciatica and like alliments. Your money back if not satisfied, but it does give almost instant relief. THE GRAND THEATRE'S WEEKLY PROGRAM. Cut Out and Paste on Wall for Temptation." 3 reels, 1 single.

Huff, who has offices in the Kittredge Building in this city, is silently and modestly forging his way to the front in the professional world. His remarkable and almost miraculous success in so many cases will soon place his name among the most eminent physicians of our Race in the country. Dr. Huff is a product of Memphis, Tenn., and is an embodiment of push, energy and skill. Endowed with a keen insight into the anatomy of the human body, he is highry fitted for the profession, which as been his life study. Dr. Huff graduated from Meharry college, Nashville, Tenn., in 1902. He began his practice in hls home state, later coming west to Colorado, where he has enjoyed an excellent practice during his ten years' residence in Pueblo and Denver. That he is accomplishing a great work in this community is evidenced by the testimonies of scores of people, who have been cured of diseases pronounced incurable and who are living monuments of the skill and ingenuity of this aggressive and popular physician. Affiable in manner, courteous in his dealings, close application to his work are also attributes to his unlimited success. The following card of thanks from a grateful mother is a sample of the many expressions of appreciation of services rendered by this medical genius: I would feel that I was very ungrateful, if I did not take this method of expressing my gratitude for the caltention given my daughter, Miss Irene Stewart by Dr. S. A. Huff. Owing to a severe cut in the right arm above the elbow, she was taken to the County hospital for treatment. The injury grew rapidly worse, blood poison set in and amputation of the arm declared necessary and her life despaired of. Leaving the hospital my daughter placed her case in the hands of Dr. Huff and he has not only saved her life, but her arm also, which is rapidly healing. Again I thank Dr. Huff and pray for his unlimited success in his chosen work. Yours respectfully, Julia Hammond, Pueblo, Colo.
