Don't sign any paper or petition unless you understand what you are doing. Watch and The Denver Star ★ ESTABLISHED 1888 TWENTY-SIXTH YEAR Number 123 der, "Insulting gestures, largely, or acts," or other offences or misbehavior: And Be it further resolved, That a copy of this resolution be at once mailed to each of the newspapers in this city, with a request for its publication; one or more to each of the National political committees Socialist, Democratic, Republican and Progressive parties-and one or more copies to each of the present presidential aspirants, accompanied with a request for an acknowledgement of the receipt of the same." After quoting Abraham Lincoln's reason for Negro suffrage, to wit, because "In some trying hour of need" he might be relied upon "to help us preserve the Jewel of Liberty in the Diadem of Freedom" (a prophecy already fulfilled) the Col. could not understand why the present admirers of our martyred President could see any thing but evil—any thing but "a bald, black lie"—in the movie called "The Birth of a Nation." Referring to the war in Europe as resulting from Germany's refusal to join the International Money trust, (a "credit money" trust, organized by private corporations for private profit) and that country's success in obtaining from the Turk a shorter and cheaper route to the commerce of India and the Orient (by way of Bagdad on the Tigris river) than that enjoyed by the English by way of the Suez Canal, Col. Morgan made it quite plain, that but for race prejudice in Europe the millions now giving up their lives there "For God, and Home and country" could never have been induced to do it. There fore, he insisted that our first step in "preparedness" against foreign foes, should be one that will enable us to get rid of our own race prejudices. Otherwise, a foreign war could only mean war amongst ourselves, sooner or later. Referring to the Klu Klux Klans now so popular that in some sections they are protected by franchise from the State, he reminded his hearers, that when only the other day "a white lady" of San Diego, Calif. "kidnapped" her husband's chauffeur, (a Negro) and ran off with him to Salt Lake only the lady's honesty saved the Negro. Had such a fracas occured in any of the Southern States, even "a woman's love" could not have saved the poor fellow, who would have been burned at the stake it for no other reason than a "warning" to Negroes that they must not be kidnapped' by white women, and a hint to white ladies that they must not tell the truth in such cases—for 'the honor' of their sex, and country. And then he declared it to be his abiding conviction that, 'what the world of today needs, above every (Continued on page 4.) THE IMPENDING WORLD'S CRISIS. Our readers will, of course, understand our pleasure to be permitted to print the following resolution submitted for the approval of the Churches of God, and of all other Societies in sympathy, as well as of all right minded men and women, by Col. Morgan at the close of his talk last Sunday night, at Zion Baptist Church. "Whereas, Modern discovery and invention is at this hour rapidly assembling all the races of mankind—all nations and peoples—in one congregation; And Whereas, In the providence of God this republic--The United States of America—has been raised up to be at once both a crucible, for refining the minds of men, and a melting pot for all races, in demonstration of all Scripture that "of One Blood" hath the Father created us all to dwell together in harmony, that we may be "fruitful, and multiply and replenish the earth, and subdue it;" And Whereas, The Constitution of the United States, as of all the States expressly provides that none of us shall "be deprived of Life, Liberty, or Property" except by due process of Law; And Whereas, A presidential election is soon to occur, and it is imperative that those chosen to administer so sacred a trust as the government of this people, ought to be able to serve truly in accordance with the will and the purpose of the Ever Living God, therefore: Be it resolved, That we will support no candidate for any office, National or State, who is not pledged in writing to give himself and all that he hath, if needs be, in support of such necessary legislation by Congress; the several Legislatures of this Union; the several municipalities of the States and by both Federal and State executive and judicial powers of the same, as will specifically and definitely accomplish the following ends, to wit:— First, The complete elimination of any and all discrimination of every kind in our laws, and in their administration, against any race or class of our people on account of nativity, color, or condition, Third, The prompt supression of all Klu Klux, or other Klans or Societies, wherever found, that assume and exercise the functions of sovereignty in the trial, sentence and punishment of persons charged with rape, mur- Caught In Own Trap. Light Turned On. Politicians Hastily Organize to Corral Carlson Votes. Star Calls Trick. IN TIMES LIKE THESE, GOD GIVE US MEN. "If you use my name or statements which mean me, I shall meet you upon the street and take it out of your hide." Under the pain of bodily injury and the peril of having our heads punctured, the STAR comes out this week boldly and defiantly attacks the methods and principles of these office holding, office seeking and money expecting, self constituted leaders, whose premature actions openly brand them as "peanut politicians." Just as we have said before that, sooner or later, few political parasites would be forced to show up their hands. Appearing in the morning paper, Friday morning, the names of a few men headed by two brainy messengers, Jackson and Campbell, appointees of Gov. Carlson, assisted by some others announced themselves as a precinct committee to organize and corral the Negroes of Denver and Colorado for Gov. Carlson, so that these two messengers might have a strangle hold on their jobs. They have even had the unlimited nerve to appoint committee men and women to represent certain precincts. We will give you our reasons why the STAR cannot support such deliberate insults to the intelligence, manhood and womanhood of Denver and Colorado, and we repudiate their actions. Without a campaign or primary, who authorized these ambitious messengers to organize for the people when there is no issue before the people? Did they go out of their way volunteer and attempt, in a dark corner of the basement of a certain barber shop, long before Lincoln's Birthday, to organize themselves "to lead" the Negroes in the coming primary, when even the white politicians had not yet announced themselves? Were they so fascinated with self importance that in a hurried attempt to corral Negroes for Carlson they forgot to remember that "messengers" never lead the people but that the people lead "the messengers?" Who furnishes the money, for whom and for what purpose are they organized especially; if they are under civil service? Is it the purpose of Gov. Carlson to so use his servants as to have them fool the Negroes and afterwards reward only his faithful henchmen who did his bidding? For these messengers to become politically active, they can be fired for pernicious political activity so say the civil service rules. Who are these men, what have they done for either Denver or Colorado, or even you or I, that they should now presume and assume to yoke upon themselves this terrible responsibility of leadership of 15,000 Negroes of this state, whose many varied ideals, pursuits of happiness, interests and conditions are so complicated and complex? If they had qualifications to be other than messengers, why did not their bosses recognize their sterling qualities when they were appointed? If their bosses failed, neglected or refused to see and recognize their supreme ability and leading qualities of mastership in them, why should they force themselves upon us, yea, down our very throats? Upright men and women will you stand for this insult? To be more specific the STAR in the interest of the Public good gives more reasons by first sincerely declaring that it has no personal feeling against J. W. Jackson, messenger No 1, as a man and citizen, we rather him and admire him as a fraternal brother. We foguht hard to land him, and he thanked us for it. But when he, as a politician and leader who attempts to cram down our throats messenger No. 2 with whom he was such a bitter enemy until recently, and then after adding insult to injury, further attempts to corral 15,000 Negroes, sell and deliver them, bag and baggage, for the retention of these messengerehips, The STAR rebels and says that these messenger jobs come too high for Negroes to pay such dear sacrifices. Dear reader do you think that their bosses really asked these messengers to go out and organize your people and then at a stated time deliver them over to us or to anyone we might designate? If they did the sooner we gently but firmly inform them that Colorado Negroes will choose their own leaders the better. According to their importance should the messengers follow the people or the people follow the messengers, in other words, should the Elephant follow the band or the band follow the Elephant? Which? What has messenger No. 1 done for Denver and Colorado to entitle him to become our leader? Let the facts tell the story what has he really done? Point out one single success in politics, outside of getting himself a job, he has accomplished? If you cannot, then he is a dismal failure in politics. Assisted by others, will you let him thrust himself upon you and blast your deserving hopes for others, just because he happens to work for the Governor? Did he not plead civil service rules two years ago when he was filling under the democrats a different position than he has now? He would not let his name be used publicly then, why so bold now? Is he a coward or a brave man? Has he ever in a crisis, put his job at stake for the Negroes, as did Geo. Gross, who for his manly courage recieved the plaudits of Secretary Ramer or did he sneak away and hide himself until the storm was over? Can you really trust him, will he lay down when the fight gets hot and his job is put in a balance? What is his history, has he a yellow streak? While J. W. Jackson is a good man and citizen in politics he is for J. W. Jackson first, last and all the time. Is not this the truth? If we're wrong we'll gladly give him credit where he has merited it. So from the record of messenger No.1 we solemnly declare unto you that he must follow the people or plead civil service. MESSENGER No. 2 INCOMPETENT. WHY? As to messenger No. 2, the STAR is unable to find out accurately from any responsible source the exact time, when he blew into Denver, but our first attention has been called to him as a waiter at the Republican club after he had acted as a soda dispenser. Then from waiter he became messenger to Lieut. Gov. Harper and with the aid of Ed Allison (his Friday) and Henri Hinkle, and yet while a stranger to Denver's needs and people, he seized the nomination as a representative on Republican ticket instead of Dr. P. E. Spratlin, an old Republican war horse, who had been agreed upon and slated by messenger No. 1, as the Negroes choice. Then came the bitterest time in our experiences while in Denver, when he, through deception and false representation assisted by an old respectable citizen, organized and became editor of the Denver Independent; the fireworks swiftly followed, ask the doctors and the members of the Episcopal Church, as was also shown in a brilliant speech in the McClain case wherein he would trail blood from his home to the city hall etc. After leaving the Independent, he sued the company for his and his wife's services, the company asked them to account for $1823 of the company's money, the suit is still pending. He soon became messenger to C. J. Pitcher, the Negroes staunch Democratic friend: After leaving there he visited Missouri in interest of the American Woodmen and after being here and there he was finally ushered into the last job of Messengership under a Republican Governor without doing any work but for self evident reasons. This prize came the next day after the star chamber basement proceedings. From the reasons we have given you, the STAR absolutely refuses to have these messenger leaders to attempt to fool the Negro voters without the light being turned on them.

A Corageous Bishop Rebukes Graft Birmingham, Ala.—Before the North Alabama conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, Bishop J. W. Alstork of Montgomery who is presiding, let it be known in no uncertain language that he could not be in fluenced in his work by any special gifts or offerings and discouraged that practice on the part of the ministers in the conference. He told the ministers plainly that the only thing that could commend them would be faithful service in the church and race. "Making me special donations will not help at all," said Bishop Alstork. "I would rather not have them, and I can not discourage the practice too emphatically. In the first place the preachers in a Negro conference have not enough money to be making the bishop presents, and in the second place, the church has provided for the bishop. For my part I am perfectly satisfied with the provision the church has made for me, and I am expected to serve it and my God. I can neither be bought nor sold, and will not be influenced in the performance of my duty one iota by such gifts." Church News CENTRAL BAPTIST CHURCH, Corner Twenty-fourth and California Streets.

POPE, B. D., PASTOR. Shorter was in her glory last Sabbath with Rev. John Adams, D. D., of Pueblo, as gospel messenger. A magnificent audience turned out at the morning hour and a splendid crowd at evening and on both occasions this man of God delivered a most inspiring message. While in the city, Dr. Adams spoke before the Y. M. C. A. and delivered an able address at the Lincoln day celebration at Shorter Saturday evening. Our pastor's sermon topic tomorrow at eleven will be "The Life for Others." At the evening hour the Allen Christian Endeavor League will render its annual program which promises to be unusually interesting. See program in another column. The Lincoln day celebration held Saturday evening under the auspices of the Citizens' League succeeded far beyond our most sanguine expectation. Aside from some of the best talent of the city, the program included two out-of-town speakers, Dr. John Adams of Pueblo and Mr. Duncan of Glenwood Springs. This advanced step taken by Editor Rivers and other members of the Colored Citizens' League met with a most hearty response as shown by the large and representative audience which was in attendance.

Race For Blessings of Liberty. Mrs. Catherine Fields-Gay of Hampton, Va., has written the words and music for the "Freedmen's Hymn," which was recently sung at the emancipation celebration by the Hampton institute choir, under the direction of R. Nathaniel Dett. The stanzas of the hymn follow: Freed by thy gracious hand From slavery's dismal thrall, I wait thy word or thy command To gladly render all— All which my powers control To spread abroad thy name, To show thy work as manifold And set each heart afame. With ardor for thy praise, Let all the welkin ring. While freedmen, as their voices raise, Their thankful worship bring. Great God, we sing thy praise For thy redeeming hand, For the great arm which thus didst raise And freed a darkened land. And do thou still defend Us in our rights as men. Restores, protect, and to the end Thy will be mine. Amen. New Home For St. Jude's Parishioners.

Endews Homemakers’ Clube With Thousands to Teach the Domestle Arte—Scheme to Build Homes Fer Principals and Teachers of Coneell- dated. Rural Scheols. ‘The general education board in New York on Tuesday, Feb. 8, included in connection with its annual appropria- tions for the various educational insti- tutions the following schools conduct- ed by the colored people: ‘The Calhoun school, Calhoun, Als., $5,000; Fort Valley high and industrial echool, Fort Valley. Ga., $2,000; Manas- sas Industrial school, Manassas, Va., $2,000; from the Anna T. Jeanes fund for employing industrial teachers for Negroes, $10,000; for homemakers’ clubs among Negroes in the south, $16,- 250, divided among states as follows: Alabama, $2,750; Arkansas, $2,200; Georgia, $2,000; Kentucky, $1,500; North Curolina, $3,500; Tennessee, $1,- 800; Virginia, $2,500. Homemakers’ clubs are organized throughout the southern states by the state agents for Negro rural schools, co-operating with the industrial teach- ers supported by the Jeanes fund. ‘They are neighborhood clubs formed for the purpose of Instruction in cook- ing and housekeeping. ‘The girls and their mothers are brought together after school hours at the school bulid ing by trained teachers of sewing and cooking and other domestic arts and are there taught the elementary prin- ciples of good housekeeping. ‘The general education board has also appropriated $25,000 to assist con- solldated rural schools in bullding homes for principals and teachers in connection with the schools. ‘The improvement of rural education in America depends on the consolida tion of rural schools more than on any other single thing. A difficulty arises, however, because when five or «ix one room schools are brought together the Uttle villages and the open country do not afford satisfactory homes for 80 many teacherr In consequence, teachers who would otherwise be willing to teach in rural schools are driven to seek positions in towns. The general education board is to try an experiment for the purpose of solving this problem. The board proposes to co-operate with the author: ities of consolidated rural schools a0 as to build a comfortable home, adjotn- ing @ school, for the principal and teachers, and they hope that this home will simultaneously serve as a labo- ratory for the teaching of good house. keeping to the girls in the school. ‘The first experiments will probably be made in the northwest. ‘The general education board has been constituted for the year 1916 as follows: Frederick T. Gates, chair man; Wallace Buttrick, secretary; E ©. Sage and Abraham Flexner, asstst- ant secretarien; L. G. Myers, treasurer; I. M. Dashiell, assixtant treasurer. Members, Frederick T.

Employees of National Baptist Pub- lishing Home Hold Prayer Meeting. It is not often that one hears of a business concern having a chaplain or holding a half hour or more religious devotions before entering upon the work of the day. The National Baptist Publishing Louse, founded many years ago at Nashville, Tenn., by the Rev. Dr. R. H. Boyd, bas such an official and holds such services daily among its employees, and the Rey. Dr. W. S. Piington is the chaplain. Upon reaching the publishing house for duty each employee goes directly to the chapel, where worship is imme- diately begun. They have an organist. and among the employees are some special trained voices; in fact, the en tire institution is one mammoth chorus. On one occasion when the late Dr Booker T. Washington was in Nash: ville ‘winding up his speaking tour of ‘Tennessee the schools at which he was to speak did not like the idea of hav: ing the student chorus sing because there had been no time given for prep aration. When Dr. Boyd was informed of the situation he took the employees of the publishing board and placed them on the stage at the Ryman auditorium. where Dr. Washington spoke, and they sang national Baptist songs, written arranged and printed by Negroes. and it ts sald that better music had never been furnished and better singing was never heard. Dr. Washington, in the midst of his addfess, patd a special compliment to the publishing house force. ‘This com pliment, ‘he declared, was deserving. because they came directly from thelr work and were not ashamed to face am audience which on that night complete- ly filled the Ryman auditorium and was estimated at 7,000.

Scholtz Drug Stores for years educated the Denver public with efficiency and good service by hiring Negro soda dispensers. Not long ago a break came and white boys were put in, but the good service and efficiency followed the Negroes to other stores as the result of Mr. Scholtz's kind educational school of soda dispensary. Every boy has made good and colored boys hold down three different places as the result. They are making good too. Denver feels proud of the record the boys have made in Boulder. Just as Scholtz won from others because of efficiency and good service, so his stores have lost and will continue to lose. We understand that the white boys had a "big crap game" down in the cellar at the central store. The Negroes never enjoyed such a luxury as that in the number of years they worked there. It is very gratifying to know that some one else besides yourself knows, feels and sincerely appreciates your efforts in trying to help lift the race up to a higher standard.

And he completely won the hearts of his aduence when he declared, that "a battle of ballots is vastly less barbarous and destructive of the fruits of labor, than one of bullets." He therefore begged his hearers to seize their opportunity, now, while they enjoyed the ballot, to unite as one, having none other than the mind of The Christ, and to strive with out ceasing to rid our beloved country of the greatest hindrance to the coming in of Gods kingdom—race prejudices. As a first proof of such unity, he expected to see the Negro race in the United States going to the polls hereafter, "with malice toward none and charity for all to vote as one for such candidates, and only such as will carry out in good faith, and at whatever cost the will of God when He made all peoples and nations 'of One Blood' to dwell together in harmony.

OTHER NEGRO NEWSPAPERS COMBINED. MISS SPENCER GETS PLACE AT NEW YORK TRADE SCHOOL National League's "Big Sister" Worke Appointed as Placement Secretary. The National League on Urban Conditions Among Colored People announces that its effort to secure the appointment of a colored placement secretary at the Manhattan Trade school has met with success. Miss Naomi B. Spencer, former Big Sister worker of the league, has been appointed to this position and began her work the first week in February. Miss Spencer's office will be located at the Manhattan Trade school, Twenty-third street, near Third avenue, New York. It has often been said that employers do not object to giving work to colored girls, but that the white employees frequently refuse to work by the side of the colored girls. Furthermore, it has been claimed that the colored girls, although trained to some extent, work more slowly and turn out a smaller product for the usual time engaged in work. But the most serious aspect of the situation, so far as the colored girls are concerned, is the fact that many of these girls who start out to learn trades lose their ambition before the courses of study are completed and therefore apply for positions not sufficiently prepared for the job or do not enter the vocations for which they began preparation. The results of these unfavorable conditions are seen in the fact that only 21 per cent of the colored women in New York city engaged in gainful occupations are working in skilled and semiskilled trades, while 75 per cent of the white women engaged in gainful occupations are working in skilled and semiskilled trades. Furthermore, those colored women who are trained find great difficulty in securing continuous employment, and, if successful in securing reasonably permanent positions, they do not get advancement commensurate with the ability they display. Miss Spencer will interview employers of girls and women in shops and factories and advise with the colored girls in the trade schools individually and in groups for the purpose of enlarging their view of the industrial field. By this personal touch with the girls it is hoped that she will develop in them greater ambition and determination to meet the conditions as they are and to persevere until they become more proficient and are considered by their employers indispensable and by their associates in their work desirable companions in labor. Miss Spencer will devote some time to work in the Washington Irving High school and in co-operation with the visiting teachers of public schools that have large numbers of colored girls in attendance. She will attempt to direct those girls above the 6B class who plan to leave school before graduation toward some vocational training, with a view of having them take up such lines of study as may suit their inclinations and adaptabilities. Another step in the direction of real achievement on the part of the National league is the fact that its associate director, Professor Eugene Kinclek Jones, has been appointed to membership on the placement committee of the Manhattan Trade school. The organization deserves great credit for the work it is doing among our people in the various parts of the country. DUBOIS ON MILITARISM. Crisis Editor Speaks at New York Republican Club Luncheon. At a luncheon discussion held by the Republican club in New York on Saturday, Feb. 5, Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, editor of the Crisis, selected for his subject this question. "Are the people of the United States progressing in the realization of liberty, equality, fraternity and justice?" In the course of his remarks Dr. DuBois in part said: "We seldom think for ourselves, and when it comes to great crises like the present we're a lot of sheep. We've been accustomed for many years to criticise the people of Europe for their expensive armaments and the tre- Fresh Fish, Oysters, Salt Smoked, Dried and Canned Fish.

The very same thing. "The people of the United States have less liberty now than formerly. There, was a time when we had equality in this country, but we are getting farther and farther away from it all the time. Today we have classes of people, classes founded on difference of income, difference of education and various other differences—even making class distinctions in the teaching of our schools. "We're going back to the ideals of every imperial government the world has ever seen. We still mouth certain things about liberty, but they mean nothing. "The United States can be a democracy, but it is not. It can be a center of brotherhood, but it is not. It can increase the liberties of the human mind, but it is not doing so. It can go far to decrease the inequalities of mankind, and there is our opportunity." PRAISE FROM GOVERNOR. Willis of Ohio Lauds Race—Will Never Unhold Objectionable Film. In an address at Cincinnati recently Governor Frank B. Willis of Ohio told an audience of 2,500 colored people that the decision of the state board of censors, in barring from the state of Ohio a film reflecting on the colored race, would be upheld by the governor in every respect. Continuing his speech, Governor Willis said: "I think it is not in harmony with Ohio ideals, it is not in harmony with the ideals of citizenship and good government, that there should be presented any sort of entertainment, by motion pictures or otherwise, that tends to reflect on any portion of the citizenship. In spite of all the great achievements of the race in the last fifty years, there are yet those in our midst who are willing to see a whole race insulted so that a motion picture concern may make a few paltry dollars." The chief executive told of his visit recently to Springfield, Ill., and related how he saw, with tear dimmed eye, the spot where Abraham Lincoln in his famous debates with Douglas declared that "a house divided against itself cannot stand." He quoted from the address of the martyred president. The civil war, he said, was a conflict for human rights. "Never was there a war when the life of the nation was at stake that the black man was not there," said the governor. "If this nation got into trouble, as chief executive of this state I would call upon you, and I know every one of you boys would respond. On the bloody battlefields the colored soldier has proved himself equal to his white brother. "Never was the hand of the Negro raised against the flag. The Carnegie hero fund this year gave a score of medals to black men and women. The colored people own 200,000,000 acres of farm land and rent an equal amount. And then some say they have no initiative. They sold $250,000,000 of farm products. And does this indicate that they are thriftless? You can take care of yourselves. All you want is a fair chance." Governor Willis said that the finest music he ever heard was from the lips of colored singers, and some of the finest poetry was written and recited by the late Paul Laurence Dunbar of Ohio. "The colored people have 3,000,000 children in school, and the number is growing every day. You do not believe in race suicide. You have no such highfalutin notions." The meeting at which Governor Willis spoke was held in the Allen temple of which the Rev. Charles S. Williams is the minister. In introducing the governor the Rev. Mr. Williams said: "There are three great governors of Ohio whose names shall live forever. As long as Ohio lives in the family of states there will remain the memory of the sainted McKinley. "Always there shall be the courageous and well beloved, in spite of insidious attacks, the courageous and great, the plumed knight, fighting for human rights. Senator Joseph Benson Foraker. To make it a holy trinity we have the brave, that scholarly and well prepared man, that future president of the United States, Frank B. Willis." FOR RHEUMATISM. As soon as an attack of Rheumatism begins apply Sloan's Liniment. Don't waste time and suffer unnecessary agony. A few drops of Sloan's Liniment on the affected parts is all you need. The pain goes at once. A grateful sufferer writes: "I was suffering for three weeks with Chronic Rheumatism and Stiff Neck, although I tried many medicines, they failed. Fortunately I heard of Sloan's Liniment and after using it three or four days am up and well. I am employed at the biggest department store in S. F. where they employ from six to eight hundred hands, and they surely will hear all about Sloan's Liniment. —H. B. Smith, San Francisco, Cal.— Jan. 1915. 25c in Druggists. FOR BHEUMATISM.

The Star was glad to note the rep- resentative Republicans who attended the banquet at El Jebel temple last Saturday night. A general good time was had and the cordiality witnessed there made the participants enjoy more the festivities of the occasion in like manner and spirit as did all the rest. No distinction as to tables nor services was experienced, not even hinted. It was indeed a grand gathering of 900 men and women who met and listened to sweet music, to the flow of oratory and feasted on good things.

C., Appeal For Financial Aid. ‘The Mather Industrial school, Beau: tort, 8. C., was founded forty-eight yeurs azo by Mrs. Racbel Crane M:ther of Boston. For thirty-five years she guve her life and means to the work. Her death occurred at the school in 1903 at the age of eighty. Mrs. Mather was a woman of great ambition. and she did a noble work here for our peo- ple, Mra. Mather was succeeded by Miss Sarah E. Owen, who has labored for thirty years most-ardently for the ad- vancement of the colored people'of the south. She faithfully fulfiied the du; ties of principal for sixteen years and is still with the institution as a mem- ber of the faculty. ‘The campus of the school contains two and two-thirds acres of ground beautifully located on Beaufort bay. Some very desirable land adjoining the campus and hitherto unavailable 1s now thrown upon the market. If Mather school would extend her stakes, which she must do to increase the ef- ficlency of her work, the purchase of this land 1s a positive necessity. ‘There are 30,000 colored people upon the island and adjacent islands with- out an education, while the schoo! ses- sion iu the plantation districts is but one to three months. Mather school offers strong academic and domestic sclence courses. Her graduates have made excellent records as schoolteach ers, dressmakers and homemakers. ‘The Mather school earnestly desires to give double the number of young women the opportunity for educational advantages. but this step forward 1s dependent upon additional land and a new: building, which the management desires to add as soon as sutlicient funds are available. ‘The trustees of the school, with its faculty, appeal to all friends of educa tion for financial afd in order that enough ground may be purchased dur. ing the spring and summer of 1916 and buildings erected to accommodate the increasing number of worthy young colored girls who desire to get an edu- cation. The trustees will be thankful for any amount. Those who may care to help individual students might like to know the cost per school year, which the faculty announces as being only $36, Miss Carrie A. Hunt is the efli- cient principal of the school and Miss Harriet L. Davis 1s the treasurer. IN WASHINGTON’S MEMORY. Pardee chelate tenet Neath: Alaa gee Institute Is Succeeding. ‘Tuskegee Institute, Alabama.—One of the encouraging developments in the campaign for the Booker T. Washing- ton memorial fund for the perpetuation of the work of Tuskegee institute 1s to be found in the generous expres- sions of interest and approval that have come from all sources and sections. ‘There 1s no lack of interest on the part of white people or black people, north or south, east or west. Dr. Washington enjoyed the friend- ship and good will of citizens through: out the country, and now that it 1s proposed that the institution which he founded shall be preserved as « nation- al memorial these friends have come forward to pledge their continued in- terest in and support of the work for which he gave his very life. When the news of his death was flashed over the wires the chairman of the institute board of trustees tele- graphed, “The trustees will not fail you in your hour of need.” When this message was published in the newspapers a southern white man Js quoted as having sald, “Yes. and the xouthern white people wi!l do their part to see that Booker Washington's work goes on.” Now, if there have been any ques- tons as to what the colored people in- tended doing toward the preservation of the work founded by Dr Washing- ton it is only necessary to refer to the numberless letters from colored people sent to Tuskegee after his death pledg- ing thelr support and promising contrt- butions toward a Washington memo- rlat fund. ‘The present campaign in the interest of the fund will afford these good friends an opportunity to contribute toward the perpetuation of the work of Tuskegee institute. The trustees have decided that a part of the con: tribution from the colored people shall xo into a permanent memorial-—that 48. a building, a statue or a monument of some other character. ‘The campaign to ralse $250,000 from among the colored people 1s on.

HIS RISE TO PROMINENCE New Orleans Boy Who Began Life as Brick Mason Became Recognized Labor Leader—Makes Good as Pastor and Is Indored For Financial Secretary of A. M. E. Church. New Orleans.-New Orleans has furnished to the African Methodist Episcopal church one of its ablest preachers and business men in the person of the Rev. Charles E. Brooks, D. D., presiding elder of the northeast New Orleans district, who is recognized as a leader of his people in the south. Dr. Brooks was born in New Orleans in October, 1808, shortly after the emancipation of the slaves; hence when he reached school age there were to be found in this city good public schools for children of the race. He entered the public school under Professor Arthur P. Williams, who is now on the teachers' pension list of the city. Young Brooks made rapid progress in the public schools and when he finished was sent to Southern university, which was then located in this city. Dr. Brooks got down to hard work in the public school, making each day J. REV. C. R. BROOKS, D. D. count for advancement in his studies. He was an active young man, and, while it was his desire to have a good education, yet he had a desire to be useful in life. He not only trained his mind in the common school and college branches, but became a first class practical brick mason, and when he finished school he followed his trade for a long time. Being a man well trained, he soon became the labor leader in this section of the country, and when he reached his majority, twenty-one years, he was the guide of 800 men, who regarded his opinion and respected his leadership. He brought to them increase in wages and recognition that they had never had before. The capitalists of New Orleans were always ready and willing to confer with this young man. The fact that he was at the head of such a large number of men brought him into prominence; hence he became a political leader in his early life. He was connected with the Republican party. While he was leader in the Thirteenth ward, yet his worth spread throughout the state and all over the country. Twenty years ago Mr. Brooks felt called to the ministry. He was already a member of St. Peter's A. M. E. church. He had developed as a class leader, a worker in the Sunday school, a trustee, a steward, and it is said of him that he at one time was the sexton of the church, thereby filling every position in the church. In the Sunday school while acting as superintendent he was loved by all the children, and his was regarded as the leading school in the city of New Orleans. It was under Presiding Elder Charles Augustus and Bishop J. H. Armstrong that he entered the active ministry in Thibodeaux, La. It was at this point that he was admitted to membership in the annual conference on trial and went step by step until he was ordained elder by Bishop James Anderson Handy of Baltimore, starting out in the mission work, then to circuits of the churches, of which he has pastored some of the leading charges in the conference. His worth was recognized, and, being kind to all persons, he won many friends. Brave and fearless, he was ever ready to fight the battles of the mission preacher as he is today, and this won for him a warm place in the hearts of the people. Just as soon as he was in the conference long enough he was sent as a delegate to the general conference, and the second time he went as the leader of his delegation. He believes in progress among the ministers, also believes in the young man making his place in the church and state. The Louisiana conference not only elected him at the head of the delegation, but is asking for his election to the position of financial secretary of his church. In this request Mississippi has joined, and other states and delegates are falling in line. He will go to the general conference next May with many of the state delegates in his favor. EMPIRE FRIENDLY SHELTER FOR GIRLS GAINS FRIENDS General Ballington Booth Speaks For Worthy New York Institution. New York. — General Ballington Booth was the chief speaker at the January meeting of the Empire Friendly Shelter For Girls, held at the headquarters in this city. For some time both the general and Mrs. Booth have taken a keen interest in the work and have given it material assistance whenever it was necessary. In the summer of 1915, when the development of the institution was hindered in one way or another, the announcement that Mrs. Booth would speak for the cause brought together a gathering of over 2,000 persons. So strong was Mrs. Booth's appeal in behalf of womanhood and so fervently did she appeal for sympathy and support for the institution that a good collection was taken up at the close of the meeting. The work has grown to a point of more than passing recognition as a social factor, and the number of girls to be cared for are demonstrating their desire for advancement. The need of the home is commending itself to the various charitable organizations. General Booth was shown through the shelter by the superintendent, Miss Grace P. Campbell, and the president, Mrs. M. C. Lawton, before leaving this meeting. He expressed himself as being highly pleased both with the home and its management. He told of the many social activities in which he is engaged and spoke especially of the homes for self respecting, wage earning boys and girls. These two institutions, he said, were particularly near to him. One of the accomplishments of the meeting was the formation of an advisory board of representative and influential men and women, with General Booth as chairman. It was the consensus of opinion of all present that the influence and cooperation of General Booth, together with those associated with him, will mean a step far in advance for the institution. At present there are fifteen girls in the home and seven or eight infants. The domestic work throughout the home is done by the inmates and in a most faultless manner. Calls are frequently made for help from the shelter, and wherever they obtain employment they give general satisfaction. Cases from the various courts are turned over to the home and are satisfactorily disposed of. Girls from Brooklyn, Manhattan and vicinity as well as New Jersey are received into the home. On the board of management are some of the most representative men and women in Greater New York A group of members of the Abyssinian Baptist church, of which the Rev. Dr. A. Clayton Powell is the minister, recently gave a pound party for the benefit of the home. KANSAS BARS FILM PLAY. "Birth of a Nation" Mirepresents the Nation and the Negro Race. A Topeka (Kan.) dispatch states that the state board of censors has barred the film, "The Birth of a Nation," from showing in the state of Kansas. The report also says that following the showing of the film to an invited audience W. D. Ross, state superintendent of public instruction and state movie censor, rejected the film entire. Then the state appeal board, consisting of Governor Capper, S. M. Brewster, attorney general, and J. T. Botkin, secretary of state, sustained the state censor, after hearing the arguments of H. A. Sherman, manager of the film company. Superintendent Ross issued the following statement: "The picture is rejected because it is not proper, is not instructive, and from its false title through its tissue of misrepresentations of the north, the Negro and our country's history to the final culminating travesty which pictures peace on earth and good will to men as the outcome of passion, of hate and murder, it is vicious and immoral—immoral not alone in the parts that are sexually suggestive, but in its whole revelation of race prejudice and sectional bitterness." Manager Sherman announced that he would take the case to the courts and get an injunction, sometime between now and the time the reel is scheduled to be shown in Kansas City. A Good Reason.

POPULAR WITH THE MASSES Left to Provide For Himself and Other Members of His Family at an Early Age, Dr. Cornelius S. English Carried a Heavy Program of Responsibilities in His Upward Struggle. Mobile, Ala.—The Rev. Cornelius S. English, D. D., is a recognized leader of the Baptists of Mobile county, in this state, and has won his way to prominence by hard work, backed up by industry and push. He represents what a man can do if he will only use his opportunities and ever be ready and willing to help his fellow man. Dr. English is a native of Alabama, and he was born on a farm in Dallas county in 1869. He has used his time to good advantage. He was among the early pupils of the public schools of the county, under Lawyer Walter Cane, who when his health became impaired abandoned the practice of law and entered the educational work in the public schools. Young English soon demonstrated that he had the ability to carry a pro- [Name] LEV. DR. C. S. ENGLISH. gram of heavy studies, and his teachers encouraged him in his efforts. He remained in the public school until he had finished the prescribed course of study. During his preparation to enter college his mother died, and it became necessary for young English to go to work in order to help in the support of his sisters and brothers, who were left in his care. A younger sister was placed by him in Selma university, where she remained until she had completed the course. In the meantime Mr. English employed private teachers and continued to study himself, making wonderful progress. While working on a farm in 1880 he was converted and joined the Baptist church, where he took an active part in the church and Sunday school work. He filled every office in the church, such as sexton, superintendent of Sunday school, teacher, deacon, clerk and pastor. All of this was but preparing him for his future work in the ministry. It was while working on the farm one day in 1899 that he felt that he was called to take up the work of the gospel ministry, and while for a long time he considered that it was not the thing for him to do, yet he could not divorce the thought from his mind. He tried to get rid of the idea of preaching by engaging in other work, but could not. Finally he informed his pastor of his intention to enter the ministry and soon afterward preached his first sermon. It was a great sermon, and he soon received authority from the church to preach. Eight months after his call to the ministry he was called to a church in Mobile, Ala., with a membership of about 150. After pastoring the church for one year he found two other churches wanting him in the same city, so he advised them all to unite into one large church and named it the Delaware Street Baptist church of Mobile, of which he is still minister. The membership of this church is now nearly a thousand and continues to increase under his leadership. He has charge of the Baptist church in Pascagoula, Miss., and one in Bay Minette. The clergymen of Mobile and vicinity have recognized his worth to the race and denomination and have elected him to the position of moderator of the Mobile Sunlight Baptist association, which is one of the largest in the state. He was elected to the position six years ago, and it has been on the increase in popularity and influence among the people ever since. Dr. English believes in doing things worth while; hence under his leadership has been brought into life the Mobile Baptist academy for the training of boys and girls. This school is young, yet it is growing and is developing young people along religious and educational lines. Dr. English is much interested in the work of this school and looks after its interest in many ways. Whenever there is any movement for the uplift of the race Dr. English is sure to be found in the front rank. Welton Fruit and Vegetable Market 2621 Welton Street Phone Main 5943.

Feb. 7. 1916 Hon. W. B. Townsend, Atty., | Denver, Colo. Dear Sir; We have watched with peculiar interest the manly fight you so wonderfully waged against the Birth of a Nation play. Indeed you are lauded throughout Afro-American: ism today. We are informed that the same play is being invited here in early spring. [am now putting on a fight against it. But 1 believe our victory here would lie in the passing of a city ordinance against such plays, and especially when we have a standing with the City Council 1 want to ask of you the favor of sending me a copy of the wording of the ordinance you had passed in Den- ver. If you can do so, you will have done the race a great favor in this part of the far West 1 am thankfully yours, 8. B. BAILEY, Attorney at Law. AT THE Under Management W.

Because Mrs. J.C. Brown of 2804 Welton St. rented for $11.50 a certain house belonging to the Conaway- Rogue Realty Co., thru the efforts of Mr. Harry Cowell of the Colored American Realty Branch, when the Five Points realty man wanted $15.00 per month, the Star is becoming anx- jous to know whether colored people at Five Points are forced to pay more for rentals. The best way out 1s: Any time you cannot get what you want, phone the Colored American Realty Co. Any insults or embarrass. ments, let them bear It; it’s in the business. If you go and get insulted you are alone injured. Why not rent thru a colored man anyway?
