You know that were all the sons of English who are led in Canada, the United States, Australia, India, South Africa, they would starve. You would never have been bills a week in circulation than there have been white people to use them all. The use of them has been given to Negroes. But when the number of white families shall equal these there shall be more for the Negroes. When this country shall have 150,000,000 whites, millions of peoples will have to leave it. There will be in the future as great an emigration from this country, as there has been to it. Lest We Forget--Spirit of Lincoln. We Must Keep Alive the Fire of Self-Sacrifice and Protection. (W. B.

National Negro Business League Selects Kansas City After careful consideration of many invitations from different cities of the United States, the executive committee voting under the grape clause of the Oklahoma Constitution. This is an experience every country comes to the Greeks outgrew Greece, the Romans outgrew Rome, the English outgrew England. Vast China overflows with 950,000,000 people; great India, has 350,000,000 with animal families. Starvation is the only thing that keeps population down, and every country reaches a conviction from over population in which a stranger could not be tolerated in it. At present Mr. Bruce you and your people have a certainty, a great country. It would be hard to find or make another. The whites are conspired to keep the Negroes in such an anomalous political and social relation as will make it easily practicable at any day to freeze out your descendants. Ask yourself the question, even did they not drive you out how could you stay here with ninety percent of the race starving? It could not be? Why the streets of city in England hold each thousands of unemployed, and one third of England's population are supported by the public purse. I say to you if you remain a stranger in this country for 25 years more you will be frozen out altogerher. This is a serious matter that calls for an awakening and settlements by the Negro people. It will be easier to keep a country for your descendants than to get one. During the administration of Mr. Taft you should have taken steps to secure the repeal of all the exclusions which mark you a as a "stranger" and demanded recognition of your membership in the American family. P. S.—You can readily see that if originally 3,000,000 Negroes had been allowed to transmit 3,000,000 acres to their descendants to add to and transmit this in the course of 200 years, they would have owned fully half the country. Likewise if even 1,000,000 mulattoes inherited in white estates in the course of 100 to 200 years they would have inherited and accumulated together $10,000,000,000 of white property which through their blyod ties, would have descended to Negroes or been transferred by intermarriages So early the most important of all questionious the whites faced was that of keeping Negro blood from inheriting in the land lest it inherit, and inherit till it inherit the country. BRUCE GRIT ON LIVE ISSUES. Continued from January 1911 I will not go back to the causes of colonization. You well know that were all the millions of English who are settled in Canada, the United States, Australia, India, South Africa, they would starve. They would never have been born had their progenitors been forced to stay in England. The fact is that so strong is the force of provocation, that any one race of mankind would quickly populate the earth. What keeps down population is want of means to feed the children. So long as there is abundant means to feed them marriages are early and prolific of offspring, and population increases in geometric ratio. So soon as the population equal the means of subsistence it is held to a fixed number by a reduction of marriage and diseases of privation. So well have European Countries learned this fact, that has become fixed in the science of political economy as the Law of Malthus which says that the population of any country will out grow its means. Every country in Europe has had to colonize its excess population. For several hundred years the United States, being undeveloped has afforded settlement to these excess populations of Europe resulting in a period of immigration. But all those white people, who colonized America knew that were the United States ten times as big as it is, in time it would fill up and overflow with population, as does Europe. Then will come a period of emigration from this country. Against such a day of excess white population the whites have made the most stringent provision that Negroes shall have simply the right of tenants only in the country not the right of liens. All the practices and discrim tary right in the country—strangers "separate" from the family. As long as all this country was not settled, and there was an excess of means over population the Negro in right of possession could tolerate this anomalous situation But I wish to point out the serious Serious consequences of longer remaining in it. Five dollars a week is a living for a person or family. Now just as the number of acres of ground in the United States is a fixed number, so the number of $5 bills a week in circulation is a fixed quantity. So far there have been more acres of ground and more $5 (Continued next week) DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JAN. 22, 1916 Lest We Forget-- Spirit of Lincoln. We Must Keep Alive the Fire of Self-Sacrifice and Protection. Editor Star:—Why the colored citizens of Denver do not show their graditude for the annuity of the day which made the race free and for which act the great emancipator was assisinated is the occasion of regret. The perils of the Civil War and the achievements of peace which have come to this government during the past sixty-three years have risen from and out of the time honored dohument we call the construction and its amendments. The framers of the Constitution held tenaciously to the following truism: "All men are created free and equal and endowed with certain inalienable rights—among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." A construction of the Constitution which was readily denied by the slave holders at the South who, were dissatisfied at the limits in which they were proscribed in the exercise of their ownership and control of slaves; and demanded that the territories of Kansas, Nebraska and the great Northwest ern territory back to the Pacific Coast should be open to the propagation of slavery which demand was denied. Then the South, in its insatiate demands for more territory in which to extend slavery withdrew from the Union of States. Just before that time Abraham Lincoln, was chosen president by the Republican Party which, was organized in the year of 1854. He entertained a different view of his duties and power under the Constitution of the United States from those entertained by James Buchanan, his predecessors who said, he had no power to suppress rebellion and to coerce States seceding from the Union. Jefferson Davis the prime mover of rebellion secession and supporter of slavery, was at that time in Conference with the leading rebels and secessionists at the South, as to the best means to promote and extend slavery and to take the Southern States out of the Union, if the North did not agree to the demands of the South. Roger Proyor of Virginia told Davis "to strike the blow" (meaning war) for said he "the moment blood is shed Old Virginia will make common cause with her sister states of the South." Gilchrist, the anarchist of the Alabama legislature "told Davis, to sprinkle blood in the faces of the people of that state, or Alabama would be back in the in less than two days." The next day the blow was struck—blood was sprinkled in the faces of the people a most horrible war began Sumpter was fired upon! The news was hailed with joy throughout the South, but with dismay to the people at the North, Mr. Lincoln to protect the Union was compelled to call for 75,000 soldiers to put down the rebellion. The war continued for two years without much advantage being gained by the Union troops, because the South had four millions slaves part of whom were in the war fighting with and by the side of their masters against the Union with a large portion of slaves were at home raising the necessaries for the rebel army. At this juncture dark clouds of disappointment hovered over the people of the North. Mr. Lincoln, was convinced that to suppress rebellion, coerce secession, restrict the power of slavery and to save the Union, it was necessary to emancipate the slaves; accordingly after ninety days notice to the South of his intentions—if the South did not lay down its arms and come into the Union. On the first day of January 1863 finding that the South still rejected his offer was still in rebellion against the Union of States, he issued his proclamation declaring all slaves free in the rebellious districts at the South. The parents of the writer were beneficiaries of that immortal proclamation, and draws in his mind a picture of the proud bird of American, as it soars away from the dome of the Capitol at Washington, with the glad news in its talons—proclaiming that on today a Nation has been redeemed, a people regenerated and freed from bondage! I imagine I can hear the clanking of the chains as they fell from the limbs four million, human beings, and the glad echoes which came up from the Southland we are coming—we are coming, Father Abraham four hundred thousand strong! Up North in the presence of their benefactors, in the home of the free and the brave; after brief enjoyment of the crude blessings of recent freedom they were startled with the horrible news that Mr. Lincoln had been assiminated! The heart of the ex-slaves must have been trained with untold anguish and grief—the world hesitated to believe the sad news, all eyes were bathed in sympathetic tears and then looking to the deep expanse of heaven, the ex-slaves cried, Lincoln Assassinated?

National Negro Business League Selects Kansas City After careful consideration of many invitations from different cities of the United States, the executive committee has accepted the one extended by Local Business League of Greater Kansas City. The meeting will be August 16-17-18. The executive committee has decided that it will also be appropriate and fitting that the first night. Aus. 16th session, be devoted to memorial exercises in honor of Dr. Booker T. Washington, founder and first president. Mr. Nathaniel T. Velar is being considered as a candidate for a place on the Board for the Revision of Taxes, a county position. He has formerly been a school director and chairman of the Health Board of East Pittsburgh, and has always been active in politics.

Mr. Roosevelt sent him to Tuskegee. not be! I think I hear the mutterings of the disenthralled and then they cried aloud, O, Lincoln, would to God thy perilous condition could have been made known to us—we would have rushed like a tempest to thy rescue and would have restored thee to the bosom of thy family and the nation unharmed or we would have paved the way for a fiercer conflict. Mr. Lincoln and his immortal emancipation proclamation have both filled their missions the one in its peace in the archives of the nation as a historical document to serve generations to come, while Mr. Lincoln is in the paradise of God and in the company of Love Joy. Adams, Wilberforce, Sumner, Grant and a host of other patriots whose lives were consecrated to the cause of freedom and humanity and who now look from the battlements of heaven upon a free but unhappy race of people. It is the greatful duty of the Negro race on the first day of January the Anniversary of the day which made the race free to commemorate that day and do honor to the name of its dead liberator. Our children should be taught that it is their sacred duty to weave garlands of greeu for the ever loving memory of our martyred president, emancipator and benefactor--Abraham Lincoln. PRESIDENT PARDONS MEM WHO BARRED NEGROES AT POLLS Washington, Jan. 17 — Frank Gunn and J. J. Beal, Oklahoma farmers, who as election officials were convicted in the federal courts of intimidating negroes and preventing their voting under the grandfather clause of the Oklahoma constitution, were pardoned today by President Wilson. The supreme court held the grandfather clause unconstitutional. The pardons were said to be based on the assumption that state officials evidently told the grandfather law valid, and the two officials in enforcing it acted in good faith. What's the difference in the effect of a conspiracy, whether a man acts in good faith or bad faith if their object is to bar the Negroes from voting and Negroes are actually barred unlawfully. There is no difference in a Klu Klux Klan as it operates in the South and the Night Riders of Missouri. All are in good faith but are illegal. This straw will show Negroes which way the President's wind blows. DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENT TURNS DOWN NEGRO FOLLOWERS Washington, D. C.—President Wilson has decided definitely that he will not be able to nominate a colored man for recorder of deeds of the district, to fill the vacancy that has existed for 18 months, and that he will give the position to a white man, believed to be a resident of the District of Columbia. In place of the recordership, he will seek to find three or four other good places to bestow upon Colored Democrats. The president made his position known today to Bishop Alexander Walters, head of the third Episcopal district of the A.M.E. church, which includes the churches of that denomination in the District of Columbia. Bishop Walters is President of the National Negro Democratic League, which gave the administration loyal and effective support in many of the pivotal states in the last election.

The pastor will occupy the pulpit at both the morning and evening hour tomorrow, using as his subjects "A New Conscience and an Ancient Evil" and "The Law of Non-resistance," respectively. Dr. R. A. Randolph preached a splendid sermon before our congregation last Sabbath morning and, as usual, he was heard gladly. The public installation of the officers of the Ushers' Club was conducted Monday evening by the pastor, which was followed by the annual banquet. On other occasions the ushers have performed some daring social feats, but the five-course dinner Monday evening easily broke all previous records. Happy is he whose good fortune it is to sit at meat at our ushers' table. Messrs. H. N Green and Joseph Lewis won new laurels as chefs. There is no auxiliary of our church that is more attractive and is rendering a larger service to our congregation than the Ushers' club. This club numbers twenty-five and we are proud of every one of them.

The Association is deeply grieved at the death of Mr. Clarence E. Langston, who passed away at St. Luke's hospital last Tuesday morning where he had been taken for treatment during the last days of his illness. Mr. Langston had been with the Association for about five years and was recording secretary of the Committee of Management. Like his associates on the committee and others connected with the organization, he labored diligently for its welfare. His funeral will be held at the Church of the Redeemer next Sunday afternoon at two o'clock. The larger boys have established a wireless station in the building and will soon be ready for business. There are ten of them in the club, and they are very enthusiastic over it. Robert Jefferson is chairman of the club and is doing his best to develop it along progressive lines. In spite of the severe weather, 27 boys were present at the boys' meeting last Sunday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock. Mr. George Wattles of the Central Association was the speaker and told the boys about "The Four-Square Boy," who, he said, was the boy who wanted to help someone else. At the meeting next Sunday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock, Frank Jones will recite and Atwell Rose will sing. At the men's meeting at 4 o'clock an impromptu program was rendered, several present taking part. This was necessary on account of the fact that the speaker scheduled did not appear on account of illness. appen. Rev. Dr. F. T. Bayley, pastor of the Plymouth Congregational church, will speak next Sunday afternoon on the subject, "A Man's Chance." It is well known to all that Dr. Bayley is one of the best friends the race has in Denver, and there will no doubt be a large number present to hear him on this subject. The "Get-Together Social" of the senior members and larger boys, which was to have been held on Tuesday evening, was postponed until next Tuesday evening, the 25th, owing to the death of Mr. Langston. Refreshments, including the musical program, will be free, and all members are requested to be there. Y. W. C. A. NOTES.

BIG VICTORY FOR THE RACE. Commission Votes Down Clarence Poe's Race Segregation Plan. ‘The university commission on the southern race question, which held it- meeting at Durham, N. C., recently voted down Clarence Poe's proposition for race segregation with a decided emphasis, ‘Mr. Poe's proposition included three parties to the race problem, as follows First, the Negro; second, the wealthy or professional white man unaffected by Negro competition: third, the poor laboring white man who does and mus! face such competition. “I would not have less sympathy or thought for the Negro, but more for the disadvantages white man.” says Mr. Poe in his pleas to keep alive the flames of race preju dice. “1 hope your commission will study this third factor and also inquire {1 separate grouping does not encouraxe better Negro leadership and communi ty life. Also make a study of mulatto traits and achievements as distinguish ed from pure Negro and inquire te what extent mulattoes are increasing.” Meeting of Fittssurgn womens Gluns.

E. church by Richard Allen | CELEBRATION AT BETHEL ea | One of the most briliant celebra- tions of the fiftieth anniversary of ae Freedom was held on Sunday, January 2nd, at Bethel Church, Chi- cago. Illinois, under the auspices of the Fellowship League. The church was crowded many minutes before thre» o'clock with a seemingly enthusi- astic audience. Interest was plainly written on every face which is al- ways the case when A. H. Roberts is the hero of the day. Promptly at three o'clock the mammoth chorus opened the celebration with a song which seemed to shake the building with its splendor. Then the presi- dent of the Fellowship League, Ida B. Wells, gave a brief survey of the work of the League. The work of Ida 1, Wells is well known by the race eople of Chicago. | After remarks by two or three other prominent people and selections by the marvelous chorus, the main ora- tor of the day, A. H. Roberts was an- nounced. No need to say he was greeted with great applause for it is a known fact that he is one of Race's foremost orators of today. He began bis oration by telling what the Eman- cipation Proclamation means today and what it meant when first declared. How many of the slave holders cried when they received word from Pres!- dent Lincoln to read the Proclamation to their slaves! And how the slaves rejoiced when they heard that they were free. The praises of God were rung all over the plantations by the voices of the slave and the song “Free ot Last’ was rung throughout the slave lands. Mr. Roberts said from ‘hat time on the Race has been dig- |ciug for themselves. Out of the bon. jage of slavery has sprung the bril- Ei ant Race to today, of which we should all be proud. Every race but ours has had something to start with and in spite of that fact we have risen to marvelous heights and are still rising, He said that what our Race is great- [ty in need of is cooperation. In. the |recent mob event that occurred in |Oklahoma, those two colored men | would not have been spared from the |clutehes of the frenzied mob, if the | Race men and women had not cooper jated with each other. That is what we need—stickfastness and stick to |sether. The Race of tomorrow is in ve hands of the young people of to day. It is up to you whether there nall be advancement or decay, You nung men and women are the future eaders of the race, it is up to you ,all this race discrimination continue or shall it cease? Mr. Roberts explained the thirteenth and fourteenth amendments and con- cluded his oration with futher appeals ‘to the Race. The celebration was well ‘worth attending and I hope that it \oft as large un impression upon the other members of the audience as it did upon me. A. M. NORTON.

You are mindful of the fact that the Birth of a Nation solidified the Negroes af Denver as never before. Some definite and decisive actions were taken and valuable results ac- complished. The play had not got- ten out of the city until a few schem- ing politicians laid plans to divide and disrupt the Negroes’ temporary unity. What did they use? Lincoln's birthday is coming, as is the honor- able Frederié Douglas$; so now,~cer- tain politicians have planned to cele- brate Lincoln's birthday in three dif- ferent places. Think of using the _ birthday of sucha great. man, who meant so much to us in our great hour of need, as a political trick or trap to catch the unsuspecting Ne- grees! Put the motives and actions of these psuedo politicians to the test by asking and answering these ques: tions concerning them: Who are they, anyway? What do they repre: _sent in business, social life, industrial activity, or what have they to lose? Are they in polities? If so, for how long and for what purpose? Have they ever given you a job, or in fact have any of them ever benefited any- body but themselves? Will your fol- lowing them give them a greater hold to grab an office, when we have many deserving widows, young women and men, capable and honest, who really deserve our encouragement? Are these would-be representatives honest and fearless and can you trust them in a crisis? Did they lay down when you and I were fighting the Birth of a Nation? Why should they bob up now, if not to further the ambition of some white politician who has de ceived the Negroes? Have these men ever sold out and will they not now sell out for a messenger job? Is no Secretary Ramer’s appointee the only man who stood up manly for the racc and did not lay down and us a conse quence received commendation fron his employer? What are the qualifi cations of these would-be leaders, it point of knowledge, intelligence, ex perience and accomplishment? Wha vision have they, what have they tc offer you? The Star has set its face in the right direction and. with your assistance, intends to take the meas ure of men who aspire to be “bosses.’ We may have to show up our friends if they are wrong; we may have to criticise our enemies severely if they persist in stabbing the Negro race in the back for messenger jobs, a chance to handle a little money or to sell the race out. Negroes of Denver and Colorado, this coming campaign will be the flercest and closest ever ex- perienced in Denver and Colorado. Negro traitors within and without the race will be shown up. So the Star asks you to patiently watch, wait and weigh all your actions carefully be- fore doing anything political. If you divide the Democrats will win; if you split the party vote and give it to a weak man, the Democrats will still win; so again the Star ad- monishes you to wait, watch and in- vestigate. Let the politician do the talking and YOU do the THINKING and ACTING. Wait—you can't be harmed. Nc ‘one connected with the Star is a job seeker, job-holder or aspires for a job We are for Jobs and positions fo OTHERS. That's where we stand Who else can and will say as much? QUR SUCCESS IN MUSI! James Reese Europe Gives Secret ot Alice teken too’ Abtnined:. eee ee ere | New York.—In reply to # correspond- ent of the New York Evening Sun who asked the question, “Why does society ‘prefer the Negro unusician?” Mr, James Reese Europe, the well kuown com- “poser iid orchestra leader, says ‘This is @ question receutly asked by one of your correspondents whose let: ter on the subject was the subject of editorial comment in a recent issue of the Richmond ‘Times-Dispateh If the Negro musician enjoys any preference at all he does not enjoy !t solely because of his color. In this oc cupation, as in all other desirable oncs here in America, the Negro’s color is a handicap, and wherever he achieves success he does so in the face of doubly severe competition. In certain branches of his occupation the Negro musician has been successful—in furnishing en- tertainment at dinner parties, recep: tons and other social functions similar in character, and in furnishing dance music. For work of the former kind his services have always been in de- mand because of his unfailing good ua. ture, his genial, kindly humor and his versatility. Until recently those who engaged in this. work were for the most part untrained musicians who relied solely on their natural talents for suc: cess. In the last few years, however, a new type of Negro musician has ap- peared. His appearance 1s due to the widespread popularity of the so called modern dances and the consequent de: mand for dance music of which the distinguishing characteristic is an ec: ‘centric tempo. Such music usually ‘takes the form of a highly syncopated /melody, which in the early period of its development was known as “raz ‘time” music. Since the dance is born ‘of muste it 1s quite apparent that the | modern dance is a creature of the syu- ‘copated melody. ‘Thus a new field has| been opened to musicians {n which this new type of Negro musician has suc: ceded, His success has been due to his efficiency, and his efficiency is due ‘to several facts, He fs a natural musician and throws himself Into the spirit of his work with spontaneous enthusiasm, so that the music rendered by a Negro orchestra rarely has the mechanical quality which fs fatal to dancing. ‘The Nexto has a superior sense of rhythm, pectl- Jarly adapting him for dance music. “The art of playing the modern synco- ‘pated music is to him a natural gift. He excels in the use of the guftar, ban Jo and mandolin, instruments. which are now being generally adopted hy or: chestras playing dance music to obtain the “thrum-thrum” effect and the cc centric, accentuated beat so desirable in dance music, and he was the first to discover the availability of these In struments for such purpose. In addition to his natural talent in the above respects the modern Negro musician is well trained iu his art. Te reads readily, memorizes marvelously well. Interprets naturally and not only understands the principles of technique in the use of his instrument, but fs re: markably skiliful in execution, as is to he expected when one considers that the Negro possesses a rare faculty for arts requiring physical skill. Perhaps it Is fair to say that the Negro has con: tributed to American music whatever distinctive quality it possesses. Cer. tainly he $s the originator of the bigh ly syncopated melody so much in favor today. It is therefore only natural that the Negro musician should interpret this musie best. Some years ago in Cole J. Johnson's show, of which the writer was musical director, there was a number contain Ing a peculiarly syncopated passage which not a single white orchestra ever succeeded in playing correctiy. while colored orchestras played it with- out effort, unconscious of its intrica- cles Such preference as the Negro mu- sician may enjoy {s therefore due to efficiency which fs the result of 1 nat- ural inheritance. It is also true that he 1s applying himself to the serious study of his music. Many of the mem- bers of orchestras are arrangers and composers. Thete are ten or fifteen such men in this city who have attain- ‘~d a high place in thefr profession. ITHE TUSKEGEE CONFERENCE. peer For Annual Meeting of Farm- ‘ers Had Many New Features. In order to put new life into the Tus- kegee Nexro conference, Dr, Booker T. Washington's last suggestion to the conference committee was thee there should be a variation of the usual pro- gram for the conference in 1916. Ac- cordingly, the exercises which’ began at the institute on Wednesday, Jun. 19. 1916, were very much different from former programs. Tt has been the custom to have the visitors to theconference go to the chap- el at 10 o'clock in the morning on con- ference day and listen to the reports made by delegates from various com- munities. Instead of this, visitors were taken to the agricultural depart- ment and to Dorothy ball from 9 to 12 ‘o'clock, a, m., to witness speéial dem- onstrations and exhibits, While the exhibits and demonsira- tions in the ugricultural department were intended for all, the exposition at Dorothy ball was specially intended for womeu. A real school for the old- er people and other visitors to the con- ference proved to be a real personal benefit. ‘Whe agricultural department gave demonstrations in farming, trucking, eanning and fruit growing, and in ani- mal groups there were illustrations in the case of dairy cattle and the manu- facture of dairy products, selecting and feeding farm animals, diseases of farm animals and thelr treatment. In the handicraft division there were dem- onstrations of making doormats out of cornshucks, reseating chairs, muttress making, horse collars, table mats and various pieces of household furniture. ‘The following is the program for the workers’ conference on ‘Thuraday, Jan 20, in the academic assembly room, from 10:30 a.m. to 1:30 p, m.: “The Better Housing of Negroes,” the tople being divided into two parts, “Urban or City Housing Conditions” and “Itural Housing Conditions." Under the first were discussed (a) “Housing Conditions and the Urban Death Rite Bor Ne- groes,” (b) “Some Examples of What In Being Done to Improve Urban Housing Conditions” and (ec) “Agencies Which Can Assist In Improving Urban Honsing Conditions.” Under “Rural Housing Conditions” the discussion was (a) “Housing Con- ditions and the Rural Death Rate For Negroes,” (b) “Housing Conditions and the Rural Labor Supply” and (® “Agen- cles Which Can Assist. In Improving Rural THonsing Conditions.” ‘The health demonstrations were beld by ‘Tuskegee justitute health department. GOOD WORK FOR EDUCATION. Bishop Greer Presides at Session of eee ies UOhurer i snetieitE ‘The work that is being dore'toward the industrial education of the colored race in a dozen schools scattered throughout the south by (he American Church Institute For Negroes was de- scribed at the recent meeting of the so- clety by the Kev. Robert W. Patton before 400 women interested jn social betterment work. Dr. David H. Greer, Episcopal bishop of New York and president of the in- stitute, presided at the sneeting, which was held In the assembly hall of the Colony club in New York, and intro- duced the speaker. | The Rey. Mr. Patton in part said: “It cost the nation $10,000 per capita aud a million lives besides to emanci- ‘pate the slaves. But emancipation ts not freedom. And after the bitterness of the reconstruction period in the ‘south, which should be called the re: destruction period, a group of men in the north and south decided that this was so, “The Church Institute is freeing the slaves at $100 cach by giving the Ne- gro the freedom of mind and body which le deserves.” ‘The reports of the past year's work showed that much good had been accomplished. ‘Lhe In- stitute conducts a divinity school, two academic — schools, tive — industrial achools, two hospitals and a training achiool for nurses: Sam M. Lucas Dies in New York. In the death of Samuel M. Lucas in New York on Monday, Jan, 10, the Face loses its oldest actor and song composer both i age and point of service. Mr. Lucas was born in 1841 and was the first colored artist. to play the part of Uncle Tom in that fa- mous play “Uncle ‘Tom's Cabin,” which shows the injustice and hor- rors of human slavery. Ie also had the distinction of being the first actor of our race to play before Queen Vie- toria. Like Will Marion Cook, Bob Cole, the Johnsons and Walkers, Sam Lucas, as he was known, had a long and successful career on the stage. He began his theatrical career at twen- ty and was active almost to the day of his death. Concord Church Loses Aged Member.

We have urged that the Negroes organize and speak through their organizations. They have done that. They have appealed, petitioned, yea, begged for consideration by and from the State officials. The Star's advice to all Negroes is to not join any kind of a club or an organization. Beware of any and all politicians. Just stop, wait and think for yourself. Weigh all matters carefully before you act. There is dirty work in the wind. Watch and Wait. MANY CHILDREN HAVE WORMS. Worms are a common childhood aliment. They make children irritable, nervous and restless, besides robbing the body and mind of proper nourishment. Watch your child. Examine the stools and at first signs of worms give your child a treatment of Kickapoo Worm Killer. They kill the worms act as a laxative and expel the worms and poisonous waste, tone the system and help restore your child's health and happy disposition. Only 25c at your druggist.

UMPhene mate 7702) THE IMPORTANCE OF ORGANIZATION United Action For Welfare of Race |s Urged. MUST FIGHT OWN BATTLES | By N. BARNETT DODSON. Judging from the efforts and achieve- ments of the colored people during 1915 who are connected with the vari ous organized bodies for business, edu- cation, philanthropy, legal rights un- der the laws of the country, religious adherence, home ownership and peace- ful relationship with the other races, greater progress should be made by them in 1916. If up through diticul- ties is the way to success the leaders in the many movements for uplift should be well qualified by past exper!- ence to avold former mistakes! and in- spire thelr co-workers. However dark the way, however dit- ficult the task, let the race press on. Half heartedness never wins battles, uor does cowardice force an enemy to ‘retreat. Courage, endurance, patience these are the tests by which we have ‘already maintained our equilibrium up from Slavery to our present status as citizens of a republic the lke of which in fits benefits to mankind the light of civilization has not yet reveaded. With the lynching of colored citizens on the increase in the south, Clarence Poe of North Carolina advocating race segregation on the farm and in cities and with the head of the nation refus- ing to appoint a competent colored man to the office of recorder of deeds in the District of Columbia solely be- cause of color, i {t not high time that the race should organize more thor oughly for self preservation? Surely this fs not the time for indifference nor a weak and halting attitude on questions of citizenship rights. The right of petition, lawful agitation and self defense are still extant. Let us use them for our own and the good of humanity in general. ‘The honorable Albert E. Pillsbury of Boston was right when he said in an address at Faneuil hall: “The fate of the colored race is in its own hands. You will get your rights when you are fit to hare them. for when you are fit to have them you will take them, and until you take them you are not fit to have them. “There 1s a fatal lack of what may be called the faculty of organization, the ket together and stand together. Do you suppose that two millions of Irish- men or Hebrews could be treated in this country as the Negro {x treated? When you have learned that unton ix indispensable and division is fatal your cause {s won.” Speaking through its stalwart corre- sponding secretary the National Equal Rights league takes up the same line of thought as Mr. Pillsbury lias enun- cuted and says: “The history of man in civil soclety has been to a considerable extent the history of such prejudice and maltreat- ing by the stronger against the weaker. The progress of what, for a better name, we call civilization has been largely the struggle of races and classes against oppression, injustice, proserip- tion, and then overcoming race and class discrimination. Especially have races and classes of individuals been deprived of freedom, self government and equality of rights. “Human progress has been written in terms of the struggles, the Sghts, which oppressed races und classes have made with ultimate success to secure to the individuals thereof free- dom and equal rights with the indl- viduals of the dominating races oF classes. Human beings have been shown to possess an instinct for Ib- erty and a passion for free and equal government. ‘The people with these attributes are rated the highest and are the most respected. “Search the history of these strug: gles of races and classes, whether for a national existence or for relief from race and class proscription and for pos- session of full freedom, equal eftizen ship. industrial rights, and you wil! find history records in nearly every case where the race or class has over: come oppression and held its ground one great fact. That fact is that these members of # race or class have had to win by organization to that end. “They have united on the ground of ¢ommon unfavorable treatment and, organized among themselves, have ex- tended the organization throughout the whole proscribed clement, haye chosen officers, leaders of thelr own, held or ganization meetings, attacked and fought in an organized way. ‘The race or class has not secured independence or abolition of proscription and disa bilities through individual work or fights or through financial or material success by individuals. History proves this of opposed races or classes since before Greece down through modern European and American history. | tel npr ate allimchiaprmtetentmdle | 8 in Ato: the case that accepted principle of suc- ees for oppressed classes has come out of the world’s struggles. “Who would be free themselves must strike the blow.’ This means that the chief nec- essary factor of enduring success is or wanization by, for and under those whose rights are denied. “If ever there has been an oppressed ‘and proscribed race and class our col- ored Americans in the United States of America are such a race or class to- day. In the south they are, because of an admixture of African blood, dis- franchised, in some cases held in peon- age; in the border states and southern states denied equal rights, segregated by law, frequently lynched. Even in the north they are in practice denied service in places of public accommoda- tion and resort; by law degraded and Droscribed in the south, by custom pro- scribed civilly in most of the north and by the federal government itself segregated at work in the national cap- ital in some government butldings. “More significant is it that caste dis- crimination is growing in degree and territory. ‘This ts the situation of ten or twelve million citizens entitled to equality by law, enslavement of whom was abolished over fifty years ago, fol lowed by enjoyment of full rights. Surely these colored Americans come under the proved principle, “Who would be free themselves must strike the blow.” They are in the category of classes’ struggling against oppres sion and unequallty. As we have stat ed, such races and classes as have overcome oppression have had organ zations of their own. According to history, we cannot succeed unless we have such on a national scale. There is no historical precedent whereby without it colored Americans can pro tect their equal citizenship.” BUSINESS LEAGUE TO MEET AT KANSAS CITY, MO., AUG. 16 Executive Commivten cr National Rady Accepts Local League's Invitation. After 2 most careful consideration of the several invitations recelved from different sections of the country for the next meeting of the National Ne- gro Business league we are authorized by the members of the executive com mittee to announce that the league has decided to accept the invitation ond. ed by the Local Negs sague of Greater Kansas Gn,, Mo. ‘The meeting will be held Aug. 16, 17 and 18, It appears that the Business league has selected x inost opportune time to hold {tx meeting in Kansas City, for as Mr. Fortune J.

INFLUENCE OF HAMPTON. Miss Bertha Conde Delivers instructive Address at Neted' Virginia School. eRe ile pe reste apg eteie | art meetgean i ass seagate ‘The name Hampton when applied to the Hampton (Va.) Normal and Agri cultural institute is n name to be con Jured with, From this school went possibly the first, and certainly the best, prepared yroup of colored teach ers who served faithfully in the coun try schools not many years after the close of the clvil war. ‘The Influence of the Hampton institute has been and is a blessing to humanity. One of the most recent and helpful additions to the institute 1s a branch of the Young Women's Christian associn- tion. It has brought some interesting speakers to the school. Recently Mis# Bertha Conde, senior student secretary of the National Y. M. C. A. board, spoke to the school at the chapel serv- ice. She told the students a little about the World's Student Christian federation, which 1s composed of stu dents in all parts of the world, and urged them to give in their lives the answer to the question which people everywhere are asking today, “What {s there In Jesus Christ?” Miss Conde said that Christ is on trial today, as he was in Pilate’s time. ‘As Pilate had the power to release him or to crucify him, so have we, and we must decide which we are going to do. Pilate heard voices saying things against Christ, ‘and their voices pre- vailed.”" Ambition, pride and selfish- ness are the voices that drown the cal! of Christ today. and we must not let them preyall, but must come out clear- ly and allow him to be the greatest power fn onr lives.

MAN OF LIBERAL EDUCATION Minister of Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church In Thrifty Virginia Town Evinces a Deep Interest in Municipal Affairs—Member of Odd Fellows, Masons and Organization Society. Roanoke, Va.—One of the important factors in racial development in this section of the country is the Rev. Dr. L. L. Downing, pastor of the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian church, probation officer and vice president of the Virginia Negro Organization society. He is making his contribution to the race along practical lines. The Rev. Mr. Downing claims as his birthplace Lexington, Va., where he was born just a few years before the surrender of Lee, so that after the emancipation of the slaves and the schoolroom was thrown open to the little boys and girls of our race he was just old enough to be among the first to get into the public schools of Lexington. He was a diligent student and made good use of his time. Beans anx- PETER H. REV. L. L. DOWNING, D. D. lous to further prepare himself for his life's work, he entered Lincoln university. It was while in the preparatory department of Lincoln that the ability of young Downing was manifested. For four years he stood at the head of his class, and his general average was so high during the four years that he was given a scholarship in the college department. He made good in his work and in 1889 graduated from the college department with honors. He felt that he was called to the work of the gospel ministry and at the same time felt a call to prepare for that work and entered the Theological seminary, determined to make ample preparation for his calling. He graduated from the theological department of Lincoln in 1894. While he was a student in the theological department he taught Latin for two years in the preparatory department of the same institution. He was considered a good instructor and was offered a permanent place in the schoolroom, but preferred to follow his calling. He received from Lincoln the degree of bachelor of arts, bachelor of sacred theology, and in 1906 the institution conferred on him the degree of doctor of divinity. Dr. Dowling was not without class honors, for in 1887 he won the sophomore gold medal for the delivery of an original oration. Finishing his school work, he found his way to Roanoke, Va., where he took charge of the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian church in 1894 and has remained its minister ever since. In July of 1894, when he took charge of the church, it was a small mission with seven members, but prospects were bright for a larger membership. The services were then held in a hall on Sixth avenue, but now the congregation owns a beautiful church building on Fifth avenue, entirely free of debt. Speaking of racial development, Dr. Downing has figured in the affairs of state and has been for the past nineteen years a member of the Republican city committee, being the only member of his race in that body; hence when it comes to the affairs of the city he ably represents our people. It is not surprising that he should be appointed the first probation officer, and he is doing his work so well that it has caused the city officials to take special notice of his work. In the fraternal organizations he is an Odd Fellow and was for a long time district grand master, and now he is the grand master of Masons for Virginia, to which position he was elected at the last session, held in Fredericksburg. He is being heard from in the fraternity, rendering great service to the craft. Dr. Downins has the distinction of being a commissioner to the general assembly of the Presbyterian church three times in succession and has been for a number of times moderator of the presbytery. THE VOICE OF OUR NATION. Views of a Philadelphia Organization a Problem of Equal Rights The Cosmopolitan Literary and Liberal league of Philadelphia in its declaration of principles as announced by its secretary, Dr. Caesar A. A. P. Taylor, makes the following statement in its discussion of legal rights for all American citizens without regard to race or color: This nation at its birth saluted a startled and listening world by announcing the sublime and glorious truth that "all men are created free and equal and endowed by their Maker with certain unallienable rights, among which are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." Its voice then was as the trump of an archangel, summoning hoary forms of oppression and time honored tyranny to judgment. Crowned heads heard it and shrieked. Tolling millions heard it and clapped their hands for joy. It announced the advent of a nation based upon human brotherhood and the self evil. Dent truths of liberty and equality. Its mission was the redemption of the world from the bondage of ages, and yet, despite this announcement, it was a nation but half free. It started all right in theory, but it was hypocritical in practice. Moses, the greatest of all lawgivers and legislators, said while his face was yet radiant with the light of Sinai, "Whoso stealth a man and selleth him, or if he be found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death." The destroying angel has already gone through this land to execute the fearful penalties of God's broken law. The representatives of the nation have bowed with reverence to the Divine edict and laid the ax at the foot of the tree and thus saved succeeding generations from the guilt of oppression and from the wrath of God. Statesmen, jurists and philosophers most renowned for learning and most profound in every department of science and literature have testified against slavery, while宗师 thus brought its costliest golden treasures.

It has aimed its fierce lightning and loudest thunder at the strongholds of tyranny, injustice and despotism. From the days of Balak to those of Isaiah and Jeremiah, up to the times of Paul and through every age of the Christian church, the sons of thunder have denounced the abominable thing. The heroes who stood in the shining ranks of the hosts of the friends of freedom and progress, from Cicero to Chatham and Burke, Sharp, Wilberforce and Thomas Clarkson and Curran, assaulted the citadel of despotism. The orators and statesmen of our own land, whether they belong to the past or to the present age, will live and shine in the annals of history in proportion as they have dedicated their genius and talents to the defense of justice and man's God given rights. The solution of the whole problem involving both the white man and the black man is simple justice, a recognition of the fact that the rights of the humbleest citizen are as worthy of protection as those of the highest. Apply this method and the problem will be solved. And whatever may be in store for this nation in the future, whether prosperity or adversity, whether there be foes within or foes without, whether there shall be peace or war, based upon the eternal principles of truth, justice and humanity, with no class having cause for complaint or grievance, our republic will stand and flourish.

He never held a political office, never influenced an election that is known of, never yielded to the delusion that salvation comes by votes, but where shall one match in a contemporary career the sum of his accomplishment in thirty-five years for this country?
