Denver Star

The Denver Star ESTABLISHED 1888 The papers formerly known as The Statesman and The Independent, have been merged into The Denver Star TWENTY-SIXTH YEAR Number 140 DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JUNE 17, 1916 FIVE CENTS A COPY 24th Infantryman Writes From Mexico I am still in Columbus. The driver and I have a week's layover to repair the machine which is greatly in need of a general overhauling. Believe me, this is some place. When I left it, it was a very small town, and now it is a good sized place They have put up automobile repair shops, and several new large buildings where you see signs "Colored trade not want ed," and we are down here trying to protect their homes and lives. It is certainly disgusting to see the way these crackers act. The United States Army is a farce. When the Twenty-fourth Infantry hiked into Mexico, they were fullpacked, the white soldiers were lightpacked. They are now in Mexico, drilling every morning from one to three hours in the hot sun and sand storms, about two miles from camp. There are several truck-trains here, and one of them holds the record for making the fastest time in Mexico. It is a white company's truck with colored drivers and is called the "Flying Squadron." The colored soldiers are well treated by the Mexicans, but the white soldiers do not seem to get along. I had a long talk with a well educated young Mexican who asked me what I was fighting for. I could not answer the question. He said. 'If I had the four colored regiments, I could give the United States a long run.' I saw in Collier's or Leslie's where the longest hike made in Mexico was by the Sixteenth Infantry—twenty six miles. That is all wrong The Company L, Twenty-fourth Infantry, made thirty-two miles in one day, full-packed." ooo heartlessly curious spectators? The moral collapse involved in such an event is worse for a nation than the loss of a battle. "What happened in Waco is also a lesson in Americanism. If burning alive the meanest culprit to gratify a sudden racial passion is Americanism, who wants to live or die for Americanism? If that black savagery represented the spirit of the American people, no one in his heart could say, 'America first,' to the immigrant from European shores. "We need occasionally to go back of 'rights' and preparedness' and 'Ameticanism' and ask if we have the realities of the simplest civilization in this blessed land of ours." ★ Who Wants to Live or Die for Americanism, Says the Springfield Republican, If Burning Alive the Nearest Culprit is Americanism? The recent lynching at Waco, Texas, brought forth many stern rebukes from the white press, but the following clipped from the Springfield, (Mass) Republican, is hotter than a "Krupp gun broadside." Here goes it; read it carefully: "The rights of American citizens seem very sacred, particularly when the citizens happen to be in backward Mexico in a region infested with bandits, or on the high seas traveling on a luxurious British liner threatened by enemy submarines. Our press excoriates Germany for drowning Americans off the coast of Ireland without warning, and war for a time has seemed imminent to the end that an American's rights should not be violated with impunity. "A Negro boy in Texas also had the rights of an American citizen. The fact that he was at home instead of in Chihuahua or on a British liner off the coast of Ireland made no difference. Yet what happened to the Negro boy? Having been duly convicted of crime and sentenced to death under the laws of the state of Texas, he was entitled to be executed in the conformity with the law and established justice. But a mob seized him, saturated his clothes with oil and fiendishly burned him to death at the stake. "Who will intervene in behalf of the violated rights of that Negro boy? What government will send notes to the chief magistrate of Texas protesting that the rights of an American citizen have been violated, and demanding redress and assurances that an act of such shocking inhumanity will not be repeated? Will Texas be threatened with invasion because the rights of an American citizen, under the constitution of the United States, are not safeguarded within its borders? To ask such foolish questions is to anthem. "The Waco horror is a lesson in 'preparedness.' Will such atrocities cease when our standing army is doubled or tripled or quadrupled in size, and the national guard, 'federalized,' reaches a half million or a million men? Would the greatest navy in the world prevent a Negro boy in Waco from being soak ek in oil and cast into the flames to burn alive before 15- SPREAD OR CURB PREJUDICE, WHICH? Tinkham Speaks Against Segregaflon. Boston Congressman Delivers Sterling Speech Against Legal Segregation of White and Colored Children in District of Columbia Juvenile Institutions. The house in committee of the whole house on the state of the union had under consideration the bill (H. R. 8348) to amend an act entitled "An act to create a juvenile court in and for the District of Columbia," and for other purposes. Mr. Tinkham—Mr. Chairman, I sincerely trust, as a true and sincere believer in the principles of our Constitution and in its assertion of the equality of all men of whatever race or whatever color, that this amendment will not be adopted. Does the honorable Representative from Florida (Mr. Clark) think he is upon the soil of Florida and legislating for it? Does he think he is in the South? Does he think he is upon territory the inhabitants of which believe in the proscription and persecution of any race or creed, or upon territory which denies the equality of man because of race or color? Does he not know that he is upon national territory which denies any such difference; upon which there is no such difference. Does he not know such legislation as this House should pass for this territory which belongs to the Nation should represent national ideas; should represent not sectional thought and sectional prejudice but national ideals? To a little further develop the principle involved, I assert that upon this national territory, the District of Columbia, which does not belong to Illinois any more than it does does to oregon, when this House passes legislation for it that legislation should and must be in conformity with national spirit, national principles, and national thought. Mr. Tilson—Mr. Chairman, what the gentleman from Massachusetts (Mr. Tinkham) has so well said seems to me a sufficient argument why the amendment as a whole should be defeated. An attempt at segregation, such as is here made, should not be permitted to succeed in this House. It is unwise, uncalled for, and as the amendment is written can not be enforced. Write a letter teanking the Hon. Congressman Tinkham of Boston, who spoke so strongly and favorably in behalf of humanity. At a time and place where it was sadly needed. Then write Our Colorado Congressmen and ask them to defeat H. R. Bill 8348 "an act to create a Juvenile Court in and for the District of Columbia etc." We cannot see how our Congressmen can or will favor such an amendment abroad when they do not favor such at home. The Star asks their cooperation in wiping out all color and race distinctions which had to discriminations with injustice as its ultimate end. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JUNE 17, 1916 Masons Lay Corner-Stone for the New Central Baptist Church. Grand Master Rector Assisted by Masons and Eastern Star will Officiate Sunday Afternoon. If ever Denver has had her religious and fraternal circles stirred with fraternal enthusiasm and religious fervor, it is now in the great anticipation of the corner stone laying of New Central Baptist church, the future leading church of Denver. Old and young, educated and illiterate, high and low all join in to make this sacred service a memorable one. Reparations have been laid by the Masons and their auxiliaries for weeks, every society and organization has been invited to be present and all will be there, with the Masons, regularly uniformed in their spic and span regalia, taking the lead. Sunday will be great rally day for "New Central." Not a dollar is owed on the edifice which has reached one story above the ground with a deep cellar excavation all properly set with pillars etc. Every old Denver citizen who knows the struggles, the sacrifices, the heartaches and sorrows of Central silently congratulate her in her hour of temporary triumph in progressing this far in religious activity and advancement of the Master's Kingdom. Go early and get a good place because the crowd will be large and eager to hear our Grand Master and new set of officers. He may legislate in Florida as Florida public opinion may allow, but he can not legislate upon national public opinion will permit, at least without a most powerful protest and the strongest contest with all of the real Americans, the true Americans in this House who recognize and believe that an American citizen is entitled to every American right with out any inequality or discrimination, whatever his color may be or his creed, whatever his wealth is or his poverty, or whatever his strength is or his weaknes. If you adopt this proposed amendment and segregate by law the Negro and the white, you will upon this national soil recognize differences of race and of color which the Constitution in its spirit and in its words has said should never again be done by the National Government or by national legislation. You will be making law for national territory which is unnecessary, uncalled for, and offensive to a majority, perhaps to at least two-thirds of the States of this Union to whom belongs this national territory, the District of columbia. This amendment should be decisively and overwhelmingly defeated. This Congress, in 1916, so many years after the national question involved in this amendment has been decisively and forever settled, should by the detest of this amendment place the seal forever against any retrocession into medievalism, against any race persecution, and announce to the States of this Union that never again shall a Member of this National House propose by any law to proscribe, needlessly offend, or publicly outrage a race which is as truly American and entitled to every American consideration in law and in treatment under the law as any man who sits upon the floor of this House, or who has ever sat upon the floor of this House representing a great, free, liberty-loving American constituency. Oklahoma Negroes And The Registrars Oklahoma City, Okla. — Roscoe Dunjee of the Black Disoatch, in applying to Peter McCormice, registrar in the second work of this city, for registration as a qualified voter, insisted that under the race classification he be entered simply as an 'American.' McCormick demurred and declared his belief that the election of officers would not accept any such entry, adding to Dunjee, "I believe it will disfranchise you." Editor Dunjee insisted, however, and declared his willingness to pay the price to find out if the State of Oklahoma would disfranchise Negroes because they register as Americans. Declaring that he was acting under instructions, this same registrar McCormick asked all Negroes applying for registration the insulting questing, "Have you ever been convicted or a felony?" Not securing results from this question, he changed later to "misdemeanor" instead of "felony." At Clearview, the registrar in one precinct just simply refused registration to all Negroes, declaring, "I'm not registering niggers." In other cases, registration was refused to all voters who were not registered in 1914 altho hundreds of young men have only attained their majority since that year, to say nothing of qualified electors who at that time were living in other State historian & Natural History Society FIVE CENTS A COPY. N. A. A. C. P. APPEALS FOR MONEY FOR LOU- ISVILLE "JIM CROW" FIGHT Denver Branch To Do Its Duty. Give Something. The Supreme Court of the United States has restored to its docket for reargument before a full bench the case involving the constitutionality of the Louisville segregation ordinance, argued April 10 before seven Justices. Chief Justice White gave no explanation for the decision to have the case reargued, but it is believed that the Court is about evenly divided on the question. Not only the fate of Louisville, Baltimore, St. Louis, Dallas, and Oklahoma City hangs in the balance; if this case goes against us you will see the wave of segregation sweep on with redoubled vigor; the cause will be set back at least a generation. The case has already cost the Association close to $1,000 notwithstanding that our President, Moorfield Storey, gave his distinguished services. A bill for $308 has just just been received from our Louisville attorneys; and the reargument means another heavy obligation. The Louisville Branch has already contributed over $400 and has just had to raise another $400 in killing the Jim Crow street car bill. I believe every branch of this Association will want to come to their rescue. If we win here will win in every city in America. As little as $10 from each branch will help a lot. Make it $20 if you can. To hold a rousing mass meeting and raise as big a fund as you are able for our legal work, would be best of all. This is your fight, and we stand or fall together. In accordance with the above the Executive Committee of the Denver Local at a regular meeting last Tuesday night directed that I should isaue a call for all members of the Association in Denver to meet at the residence of Mrs. Mary Holmes 2139 Curtis next Thursday night at 8 o'clock to consider this and other important matters to come before the body. Refreshments will be served. In addition, the governor of the State, Robert L. Williams has aided and abetted this discrimination by asserting that all who resorted to the courts for relief would be arrested-Age. Church News SHORTER CHAPEL. Washington and Twenty-third Sts. REV.

Telephones, York 6007, York 9377. A splendid day was the experience for the congregation last Sunday. The pastor's sermon in the morning was both inspirational and corrective. The entire service was made tender by the presence of the Spirit. Two persons united to the membership during the day. The special offering lacks a few dollars of reaching the $1,500 mark. There are yet other offerings to come. In such generosity at a time of financial stringency is characteristic of the Zion people. The Sunday School picnic is set for the third Thursday in the month of July. This outing will be fully up to former years. Sports of various kinds and classes will make up the program. Next week full announcements will be made. On Thursday evening, July 5th, the Young People's chorus will give its first recital. Prof. Whiteman, director of music for Denver's public schools, is prepared to present a genuine surprise to the community on this occasion. It is wonderful how these young folks sing! A very rich and variated program will be presented, and those fortunate to get seatings in our large auditorium will consider themselves fortunate. The admission fee is 25 cents. The Western Baptist Association will meet with the Central church next Tuesday evening, June 20th, continuing till Friday night.

Mrs. Rosalie Ward will be the hostess this Sunday afternoon, assisted by Miss Bettina Jackson. The outdoor party of last Monday evening was a huge success. The night was clear and warm and a goodly number repaid this first outdoor effort of the Association. The Association committee were in charge. Mrs. Johnson is chairman of this committee. The next meeting of the Association will be the business meeting the first Monday in July. We will have only two night meetings a month during the summer months. The Vesper services are held every Sunday afternoon from 4 until 6 p. m. Tea is served from 5 until 6 p. m. at this meeting. Our president, Mrs. Lydia Smith Ward, is with us again and was at the Lawn Social on Monday evening. We are indeed glad to have her guilding hand and earnest spirit to lead us. We will hold a joint meeting at the Peoples Presbyterian Church on the last Sunday in June. The Rev. Dr. McNeil of the Central Presbyterian Church will be the speaker. Y. M. C. A. NOTES. It was nearly nine o'clock last Saturday evening when final game of croquet was finished. Ross and Jones were matched against Lightner and Sims. Champion King was indisposed, and could not play but one game. It was almost any man's game until near the close, when by a fortunate run Lightner became a rover, after which the chances of Ross and Jones faded away like smoke. Early in the evening Bell and Lightner had defeated Sims and King in a rather sensational game, when it seemed as if everything was lost. Next Saturday afternoon, other games will be played, all professional or semi-professional players being in the games. The men's meeting will be held next Sunday afternoon at four o'clock as usual. The Rev. C. B. Wilcox, pastor of the Asbury M. E. Church, will be the speaker. Dr. Wilcox is one of the ablest ministers of Denver, and his address will be worth hearing by all. The meeting will be opened to all men. On Sunday, District Supt. S. A. Stripling will preach morning and evening. Holy communion at evening service. Quarterly Conference Saturday at 8 o'clock. Funds Needed For the Slater School. The trustees of the Slater Industrial and State Normal school at Winston Salem, N. C., are making strenuous efforts to raise $12,000, necessary to meet the offer of the state for a similar amount. Professor W. A. Blair, secretary of the school, has recently written to several prominent men in New York who have formerly added the school financially asking that they assist the institution in raising the $12,000 needed. The trustees ask all friends of education to contribute something toward the amount named. The school is one of the best among our people in that section of the state and is worthy of support.

NATIONAL URBAN LEAGUE BROADENS SCOPE OF WORK Executive Secretary Jones' Report on Trip South Is Encouraging. New York.—Eugene Kinckle Jones, executive secretary of the work of the National Urban league in cities, returned to this city recently from a trip extending through a period of three weeks to cities of the south. He visited Atlanta, Augusta and Savannah, Ga., and Richmond, Va., where the league has affiliated organizations. He also spent several days in Jacksonville, Fla., and Washington, where he began movements which will eventually result in the formation of permanent organizations affiliated with the league. The Neighborhood union of Atlanta, with Mrs. John Hope as chairman, maintains a social center in which boys and girls' clubs are conducted. In connection with this work campaigns are held in the interest of better health, cleaner yards and streets, better educational facilities and more efficient handling of cases of juvenile delinquency. In Savannah, Ga., Sol C. Johnson, editor of the Savannah Tribune, acts as chairman of the local organization. In addition to the regular activities of the Savannah branch of the league, school races are being held in May at which the attendance will probably be larger than $000 persons. This organization is now in search of a competent, trained social worker who can take charge of the activities in that community. Likewise the organization in Augusta is in search of a worker and plans during the present summer to conduct three playgrounds for colored children. Mr. Jones addressed public gatherings at Bethel Institutional church in Jacksonville, Fla., held under the auspices of the Jacksonville Federation of Colored Women's Clubs, Miss Eartha M. M. White chairman. The co-operation of eight organizations in the formation of a central clearing house for social work among colored people in this city is assured. Mr. Jones also addressed a representative conference called by Dean Kelly Miller at the Carnegie library of Howard university, in Washington. Dr. J. H. N. Waring was selected chairman of the committee on organization. Plans for the development of the work of the league in Detroit, Mich. have been completed. Mr. Forrester B. Washington, 1915-16 "fellow" of the league, who is completing his training at the New York School of Philanthropy and Columbia university in June, will take up his duties on June 5 as secretary of the Detroit work. The principal activities in connection with this movement are the improvement of housing conditions through reduction of rents and securing of more adequate housing facilities for colored people and the enlargement of industrial opportunities both through the securing of better training for colored workmen and opening new lines of employment for them. All of the organizations in connection with the league throughout the country held health week meetings in May. Good Hope Baptist Church Out of Debt. The pastor and members of the Good Hope Baptist church, Pittsburgh, have succeeded in raising sufficient funds to pay off the mortgage debt of the church. A banquet followed the burning of the mortgage the first week in June. THE DENVER STAR HAS MORE READERS THAN ANY OTHER NEGRO JOURNAL IN COLORADO. Your Credit Is Good WITH THE KORTZ JEWELRY CO.

J. GRIFFIN'S UPWARD CLIMB How a North Carolina Boy Won His Spurs. PAID FOR OWN EDUCATION. Early Struggles and Subsequent Success of the Principal of the High Point (N. C.) Normal and Industrial School—Growth of Institution Founded by a New York Society. High Point, N. C.—North Carolina, like the other southern states, is contributing its part to the racial development. It has produced some strong, intellectual men, both in the professions and trades, and especially in the educational field. In the schoolroom is to be found Professor Alfred J. Griffin, principal of the High Point Normal and Industrial school, which is one of the best in the state. It is doing a fine work for the development and training of the young people. This institution was started in 1890 by the New York yearly meeting of Friends. At its head was the Rev. Frank H. Clark of Massachusetts, who was one of the men who desired to help the race by contributing their M. B. ALFRED J. GRIFFIN. services to the training of the boys and girls. He remained with the institution about four years and resigned to return to his home, having placed the institution on a good footing. At this point the board of trustees saw fit to call into service a member of our race in the person of Professor A. J. Griffin. He took charge of the work in July, 1897, and when it was announced in the fall that school was ready more applied than could be accommodated. Professor Griffin was born in Edgecomb county, N. C., and spent his early life, like most of the young men and boys, on the farm. It was soon after the close of the war. As soon as he was old enough he was placed in the country school by his parents, and it was soon discovered that he was a bright boy, capable of rapid advancement. After three years in the country school his parents sent him to the Tarboro high school. This was just twelve miles from his home, and he put his feet in the road and walked it. He would spend the week in Tarboro, but just as soon as school closed on Fridays he would start back home and remain until Sunday afternoon, and then he would walk back to school, bringing his food for the week with him. As soon as he was far enough advanced to teach a country school he taught in the summer, earning a little money, and by this means was able to enter St. Augustine's College institute, Raleigh, N.C. He remained in this school for five years, graduating in 1892 at the head of his class. It should be inspiring to the young people to know that Professor Griffin had a widowed mother, whose means were limited; hence he had to work his way through school. During his entire school life in St. Augustine he had few clothes, and he was kept busy patching them to make them last. When the time for his graduation came the other members of his class had new suits, and this young man had to have something new also, so he went to a nearby rag shop, bought a suit of clothes for $1.50 and paid a tailor $1.50 to trim them down to his size. A pair of secondhand shoes from a secondhand store, and then from the same rag store he purchased some underclothes. The clothes were all new to him, even if they had been used before. Rigged in clothing that had been used before, this young man stood up, the valedictorian of his class. So well did he do his work that the board at St. Augustine offered him a position at $25 a month, which he accepted and held for five years, when he was called to the High Point Normal and Industrial institute. The equipment consisted of five acres of land one frame building and the principal's cottage. The cottage is the only building left of the older buildings. Taking hold of the work with a determination to win, Professor Griffin nineteen years ago went about to make improvements. He purchased ninety-two acres of land, erected two large brick buildings, one laundry, a workshop, one industrial building and car penter shop. The literary course stands second to none.

DELEGATES ARRIVE ON TIME Much Important Work Ahead For Sessions of Great Religious Body Meeting For Three Weeks at Bethel Church—Bishops and Delegates Present From West and South Africa. By WHITTIER H. WRIGHT. Philadelphia. Without a doubt the most interesting convention that has ever been held in Philadelphia among our people is the general conference of the African Methodist Episcopal church, which convened at Bethel A. M. E. church, this city, on Wednesday, May 3, to hold for three weeks. Already delegates in large numbers have put in their appearance. The delegates from Africa arrived last week. Among them were Rev. H. M. Steady and Rev. H. G. Knight of West Africa and Rev. Luckie of South Africa. Each day large numbers of delegates, ministers and friends are arriving. As this convention marks the centennial anniversary of the founding of the A. M. E. church organization by Richard Allen, large numbers are anxious to witness the celebration. There will be 548 delegates in attendance, including fourteen bishops and thirteen general officers. This conference will present many interesting features for discussion. Among the great questions that will be discussed are the return of Bishops Johnson and Heard from South Africa and West Africa, respectively. These P REV. R. B. BROOKS, D. D. two bishops were elected in 1908 to serve twelve years on the African field. Some are advocating their return to America, while others insist on their remaining another four years. The church is anxiously awaiting the at come. As to election or nonelection of more bishops, sentiment is greatly divided on this great question. It is rumored, however, that the board of bishops will recommend that more bishops are not necessary. This rumor has excited unusual interest, and many are opposed to this course should such rumor be true. Proper care for supernumerary preachers, widows and orphans. Some are in favor of establishing a central missionary bureau for the care of such persons. Others have different recommendations. The proper provision for the educa A. A.

The unification of the publishing houses and the moving of the publishing interests to Nashville, Tenn., are propositions of great moment. It is the opinion of quite a number of the delegates that this will be one of the most interesting issues to be discussed at this meeting. Everything, however, seems to be in favor of transferring the publishing interests to the Nashville house, reserving the present quarters of the Book Concern as a depository and for the printing of the Christian Recorder. There are candidates or aspirants galore for the bishopric. It seems that every southern state wants a bishop elected from that particular state, and practically every northern district has put a choice before the conference. Among those prominently mentioned for this high position are Dr. W. A. Fountain of Georgia, Rev. R. B. Brooks of Florida, Dr. J. C. Caldwell of Tennessee, Rev. S. P. Felder of Mississippi, Rev. G. W. West of Alabama, Dr. W. W. Beckett of South Carolina, Rev. G. W. Porter of Tennessee, Rev. W. Sampson Brooks of Missouri, Rev. A. J. Carey of Illinois, Rev. M. W. Thornton of Massachusetts, Rev. C. C. Dunlap of Pennsylvania and numerous others. Dr. R. R. Wright, Jr., editor of the Christian Recorder, who is chairman of the committee on entertainment, is keeping very busy. He has already announced many of the features for the entertainment of the delegates. A grand historical pageant of Negro religions, entitled "The Star of Ethiopia," written and managed by Dr. W. E. B. Du Bois of New York, will be given at Convention hall on three nights, May 16, 18, 20. On the program appear the names of some of the ablest men of the race. RELIGIOUS WORKERS MEET.

The Star's name has been handed promiscuously by certain persons who claim the authority to speak for the Star on political matters. The Star desires to inform all persons—particularly the politicians—that no one outside the Editor, C. S. Muse and the Assistant Editor, Geo. G. Ross, are authorized to speak for the Star. Many false impressions and falsehoods are studiously circulated to deceive and mislead men who want to do the honest thing. The Denver Star desires to let a few people know that it approves of the good work the Five Points Speer club did—the only organized body that openly worked for the Mayor. It deserves to be recognized, for its claims are just. To slight or make light of the work done by this organization will cause a serious mistake, which may prove hard to rectify. We are with them. Their works have spoken loud. The action has been passed to the victors. What will they do? The Great Western Federation of Baptists convenes June 20th at Central Baptist Church. Great expectations and much interesting work will be the fruitful results of their deliberations. The Star welcomes these Baptist divines to our city and may their stay be both pleasant and profitable, not only to them but to the citizens of Denver as well. Supreme Court Justice Hughes was the successful nominee to carry the Republican banner this fall for the Republicans, with Fairbanks as his vice. The Star knows that Justice Hughes wrote the opinion in the Oklahoma Grandfather case knocking out the law and while Governor of New York, he made an excellent record. We hope that he will be elected. The Denver Star: The De Agrado Club met at eight o'clock last Friday evening, June 9th, at the home of Misses Oresa and Odena McCullough.

Armstrong and Loyal Worker For Nearly Twenty-five Years Succeeds Major Moton as Commandant. Knows How to Handle His People. By W. ANTHONY AERY. Hampton, Va.—"Big Brother!" This is the affectionate nickname which the Hampton institute students have for Allen Wadsworth Washington, now the associate commandant of cadets, who is officially known as Captain Washington and will be the successor of Major Robert R. Moton, who in turn is the well known principal elect of Tuskegee institute. Growing boys are keen judges of character, and whom they follow others do well to understand and appreciate. Some years ago it used to be said that if Hampton had done no more than train Booker T. Washington it would have paid for itself many times over. Recently the nation, especially the south, has been rejoicing that Major Moton, another distinguished graduate of Hampton, would soon take up Dr. Washington's heavy burden at Tuskegee. Today the friends of Hampton and of Negro education are rejoicing that another self made, Hampton trained man, Allen Washington, will become the commandant of cadets at Hampton, where he graduated in 1891, a product of the pioneer work of General Samuel Chapman Armstrong. Allen Washington came to the Hampton school, on the lower peninsula of Virginia, from Gloucester county, a [Picture of a man in a suit with a tie]. CAPTAIN WASHINGTON. county which is well known on account of the large percentage of colored people who own their farms and their homes, law abiding and thrifty. They have won the respect of the best white people because of their industry and good character. Mr. Washington entered the Hampton institute night school and became what is called a "work student"—that is, he worked by day at manual labor and then went to school for two hours on five nights of the week. In 1880 he finished the harness maker's trade and then spent two years in the Hampton day school, academic department. After his graduation he was employed by day in the harness making shop and at night in the commandant's department. During the next year his time was equally divided between the harness shop and the commandant's office. Little by little he became more active in the disciplinary work and soon found his full stride in handling boys and handling them with sympathy and still with firmness. How does a colored man handle his own people? To answer this question so far as Captain Washington is con- --- THE LEADING NEGRO FRATERNAL SOCIETY Home Offices, Arapahoe Building, Denver, Colo. $12,000,000 INSURANCE IN FORCE MEMBERSHIP in The American Woodmen affords— OPPORTUNITIES for fraternal association, PROTECTION in case of sickness, PROTECTION in case of accident, PROTECTION in case of old age disability, PROTECTION for your family in case of death.

Captain Washington is indeed a big brother to the 500 Negro and Indian boys who are being trained at Hampton for leadership in school teaching, farming and mechanical industries. He is friendly, but emphatic, in his administration of discipline. He is willing to put the facts squarely to boys, and he expects them to do their best. Even when he has to send away an occasional boy he gives the best kind of advice and has in this way started many boys on a higher path. Whether as a farmer, an oysterman, a harness maker, a disciplinarian or a trusted officer in some organization Allen Washington has always retained his native simplicity of speech, his sincerity and his spirit of racial good will. As an officer of the Hampton school Captain Washington has taken part in many educational and financial meetings which have been held to create new interest in Negro education. He has traveled far and wide, speaking on behalf of Hampton and the ideas of education for which Hampton stands. He knows southern conditions. HOWARD ALUMNI TO HOLD ANNUAL REUNION JUNE Much Valuable Information Given In April Issue of the Record. Washington.—The April issue of the Howard University General Alumni Association Record is perhaps the finest number ever issued from the press of that famous institution. Special care was exercised in the April number to set forth the activities of the alumni both at home, in the university and abroad. The definite aim and purpose of this issue is to lay a foundation for an accurate and complete record of the alumni, now numbering between 2,500 and 3,000, for the semicentennial publication, year 1917, when Howard university, which was chartered in 1867, will reach its fifthth year of service and usefulness in the higher education of the colored youth. This edition of the University Record is limited and is sent out first to the alumni whose addresses have been verified as accurate. Preparations have already been begun for the annual reunion and alumni day on June 7. The committee of arrangements will present many brilliant features. The quinquennium feature, which has proved so popular for the past three or four years on account of its rotation in series of five years of those participating and having charge, will be used in the coming reunion. Nearly fifty years ago, March 2, 1807, the charter for Howard university, this city, was granted, and in the half century has sent into the world upward of 3,000 well equipped men and women as teachers, preachers, dentists, doctors, lawyers and laymen, many of whom have made their impress on the community in which they have lived. Every graduate of this well known educational institution is requested to at once communicate with the alumni secretary, care the university. The General Alumni Association of Howard University, through its officers, publishes the alumni number of the University Record, the official publication of the university. Its forty-eight pages for April contain matter of interest and outline the plans for the celebration of the alumni reunion on June 7, 1916, and also notes the preparation for the semicentennial celebration, March 2, 1917, and reunion of the alumni on June 7, 1917. The "quinquennium" list, showing a roster of the graduates from Howard university in 1871 and also the five year periods since, is one of the interesting features of the alumni number of the University Record. This list contains the names of many prominent citizens well known throughout the entire country. Howard university will celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of its charter March 2, 1917, by signal service in Washington, and concurrent celebrations will be held in many localities throughout the country by local alumni. The alumni number of the Record is edited and compiled by Financial Secretary Robert A. Pelham and President Shelby J. Davidson, the former a well known newspaper man. It contains the announcement of a new plan adopted by the Alumni association to insure rotation of the "reunion honors."

Y. - Unusual interest was created at the session of the general conference of the Methodist Episcopal church being held at this famous resort on Tuesday, May 9, when Bishop Isaiah B. Scott, the only colored bishop of the church notified the subcommittee of bishops of his intention to retire at the close of the present session of the general conference. Bishop Scott may read his retirement from the floor of the conference, or he may hand it to the subcommittee to read with its report. The conference will be in session practically the whole of May. The other colored delegates to the conference upon hearing of Bishop Scott's intention held a caucus and decided to propose two candidates as Bishop Scott's successor. They are the Rev. Dr. J. W. E. Bowen of Atlanta, a professor at the Gammon Theological seminary, and the Rev. Dr. R. E. Jones, editor of the Southwestern Christian Advocate. The colored delegates desire Bishop Scott's successor to be a bishop with full powers, but it is expected that this request will be resisted on the floor of the general conference. The reason given by Bishop Scott for his request for retirement is that the health of one of his daughters will not permit her to live in Africa, where he has been stationed, and that the enforced separation from his wife and family, who live in Nashville, Tenn., makes it undesirable for him to retain his present office. Bishop Scott is about sixty-two years old and in normal circumstances would not be retired until the general conference nearest his seventy-third birthday. He was elected bishop for Africa in May, 1904, and his Episcopal residence has been in Monrovia, Liberia. It is believed that he will be retired on a pension of $1,500 a year. Bishop Scott's retirement and the determination of his friends to demand the election of a Negro bishop with full powers to take his place add material interest to the affair. Good Year at Georgia State College. Savannah, Ga.-The twenty-fifth anniversary of the Georgia State college is being celebrated in connection with the annual commencement exercises of the college, which began here on Wednesday, June 14. The school year has been a very successful one and there were graduated from the college, normal and industrial departments about fifty students. The baccalaureate sermon was delivered by the Rev. Dr. Charles T. Walker of Augusta. Addresses were delivered by Mr. James W. Johnson of New York, Bishop Benjamin Kelley of Georgia and Dr. R. R. Wright, Jr., of Philadelphia, who is the son of Major R. R. Wright, president of the Georgia State college. Miss Vann Resumes Newspaper Work. One of the most efficient young women engaged in newspaper work in the south is Miss Annie Mae Vann of the Norfolk (Va.) Journal and Guide. Miss Vann is a member of the National Negro Press association, attends its various meetings from time to time and has been of great assistance to the members of the organization by giving them the benefit of her large experience as a subscription agent, in which line she is considered an expert. It is therefore a bit of good news to learn from the Journal and Guide that Miss Vann has again resumed her activities after a slight setback on account of eye trouble.

Lewis, well known Boston lawyer and Harvard graduate, speaking at the recent commencement exercises at the Hampton (Va.) institute, in part said: "I am happy in paying my first visit to the shrine of Negro education in America. Here the education of the race began. Here the first great moral impulse to the progress of the race within the last half century was received. Let us imitate the example and patriotism of the Japanese during this festival season and open our hearts and our lives to the spirit and influence of our ancestors—the men and women who made Hampton, and through Hampton another race in America. "Whether you teach a school, follow the plow or build a wagon, remember that you are an example for your fellows. Teach others not only by your words, but by your example, how to cultivate thrift and dignify labor, how to improve their minds and how to build happy homes and fill them with love and honor." The Rev. Dr. Herbert B. Turner, the school chaplain, preached the baccalaureate sermon, taking as his theme Paul's words, "I press on." Dr. Turner said that the class motto, "Bend to the oars though the waves dash high," expressed strong determined effort toward that which is highest and best in life in spite of difficulties. He said, "You go forth prepared, not finished," and urged the class to constantly press forward for the best things, to use difficulties as a challenge, and, as General Armstrong did, to put God and country first, themselves last. In the annual competitive drill of the school battalion of cadets the cup was won by Company D, under the leadership of William D. D. Dickey of Beachon, Ga. The judges were Captain J. M. Coward and Captain F. L. Fenton of Fort Monroe, Va. Major William R. Smith of Fort Monroe reviewed the battalion and presented the cup. Other activities included several concerts—one by the student band clubs, one by the school band under the direction of Professor W. M. O. Tessmann, bandmaster; one by the following visiting artists: Helen Elise Smith, pianist; Florence Cole Talbert, soprano; and Daisy Tapley, contralto.

Splendid Results Obtained at Institution In Ohio. OUTLINE OF FUTURE PLANS State Auditor Pays High Compliment to President W. S. Scarborough For Efficient and Economic Management of the University—Commencement Exercises Will Be Held In June. Wilberforce, O. The present scholastic year at Wilberforce university has been one of constant effort on the part of its president, Dr. William S. Scarborough, and the faculty to make it the most successful in the long and eventful history of the institution. While not all has been accomplished which the president desired nor have all the plans for future development matured, the results are highly gratifying. The students have made good in their studies, and the commencement exercises to be held in June will afford a period of satisfaction and joy to faculty, students and the board of trustees. The slogan now is a greater Wilberforce university, and in keeping with it provision has already been made for several new buildings, some of which, according to arrangements, will be erected this summer and fall. Among the first buildings to be erected will be a gymnasium, a central recitation building for all class purposes and a hospital. Buildings for other purposes which are much needed and for which plans will be perfected are a science hall, a college chapel, a conservatory of music and an administration building. The fact is not generally known among the great majority of the colored people that the first organized effort for the education of our people was perfected at Columbus sixty-nine years ago. At that time there was organized and established what was then known as Union seminary. The establishment of Union seminary crystallized nine years later in the establishment and incorporation of Wilberforce university, fittingly named after William Wilberforce, who was England's greatest abolitionist, at Tawawas Spring, now Wilberforce, O. just three miles out from Xenia and fifty-five miles from Columbus, the point at which the first organized effort with in the race was made for the education of the race in this country. Thus, by this establishment of the Union seminary in 1847 at Columbus and the establishment of Wilberforce university at Wilberforce, Ohio became the cradle of Negro education in America. Union seminary long since became a mere incident in the history of the race and the history of education in the United States, but Wilberforce university stands today the pride of the race. It is impossible to estimate how much Wilberforce university has contributed to race advancement. It has radiated hope and aspirations and ambition to every section of the globe. It has been the great conservator that has ameliorated the condition of the race in this country and softened prejudice on the part of whites to a point where the true American white man abandons the idea of restrictions for the American idea of swinging wide the door of hope for those who half a century ago were suffering slaves. Historical references become delightful reminiscences when the enlarged present and the far greater future attract attention to some feeble effort of the long past that has materialized into a great realization. Thus it is with Wilberforce university, once but an acorn, that has grown to a great oak, whose history is dear to the Negro race. Inseparably associated with Wilberforce university are those who composed its first board of trustees, among whom were Salmon P. Chase and Bishop Daniel A. Payne, the most famous of all Negro prelates, who became president of Wilberforce and served until his death. Wilberforce university is the only exclusively conducted institution for the education of Negroes by Negroes in this country, to which the federal government details a regular army officer to instruct its young men in military training. By reason of this a graduate of Wilberforce becomes eligible, according to the rules of the war department at Washington, to take the examination required by the government to become an officer in the United States regular army. There are only two schools in Ohio where military instruction is given under supervision of a regular army officer detailed by the United States government—the Ohio State university at Columbus and Wilberforce university in this town. The Ohio state auditor in his report paid a high compliment to the efficient and economical management of Wilberforce by its present officers when he stated that "the per capita cost of each student is the lowest of any institution for manual training and higher education in the state." Again, in the clearest possible way, he gave one of the prime reasons why Wilberforce has done and is doing such a great work when he said: "Here there are no artificial distinctions created by wealth. There is no indulgence in social prodigality. The students are a homogeneous body, all enjoying the same privileges and opportunities." NEW BEGINNING FOR TUSKEGEE Principal Moton Enters Upon Duties With Courage. CO-OPERATION IS HIS PLEA. Washington's Successor Reviews History of Early Struggles at Institution Made Famous by Late Apostle of Industrial Education—Praise For Patriotic Americans. Tuskegee Institute, Alabama.—The thirty-fifth annual commencement exercises of the Tuskegee institute were held on Thursday, May 25, in the presence of great throngs of people from all sections of the country. While there was much interest manifested in all the proceedings, the height of interest and expectation hinged about Major Robert Russa Moton, who was installed as the principal of the Tuskegee Institute. Major Moton's installation address was listened to with the closest interest and attention. He said in part: At a time when racial misunderstanding and sectional strife resulting from the civil war and subsequent reconstruction had reached an acute A. B. MAJOR ROBERT R. MOTON. stage, when well meaning men were trying to find an adequate method or racial readjustment, a southern white man, one who had strong southern feelings, who saw the great need of the Negro here in Alabama and the south, this man, who was filled with a desire to help our race, wrote General Samuel C. Armstrong, the founder of Hampton institute, asking that he send a colored man to Tuskegee to begin a work on the Hampton plan. That day in July, 1881, when the modest, quiet, unassuming young man, Booker T. Washington, reported with a letter from General Armstrong, his former teacher, and was cordially received and welcomed to this community by Mr. George W. Campbell was really the beginning of a form of co-operation the scope and effectiveness of which was destined to command the respect and admiration not only of this nation, but also of the entire civilized world. Combination of Important Elements. Here met the three elements—the north, the south and the Negro—elements that must be taken into account in any genuinely satisfactory adjustment of racial relationships. It was natural for white men to be considered as important factors in any and all adjustments and problems, whether educational, business or otherwise. Up to this time the Negro had usually been the problem and not an element worthy of any serious consideration so far as any first hand contribution he could make toward the solution of any large social question was concerned. These two men, representing the two extremes of sectional sentiment—Mr. Campbell, a former slave owner, the south, and General Armstrong, a former officer in the Federal army, the north—both broad in sympathy and wise in judgment and entirely void of any selfish motives, both actuated by a sincere desire to reunite the nation in spirit as well as in purpose, both patriotic American citizens—these two gentlemen united their forces for the prime object of lifting the burden of ignorance in the south. Mr. Campbell wanted a Negro to undertake the work, and General Armstrong knew of at least one Negro who could do the work. These two farsighted men, agreeing on a united purpose for the common good of humanity, began a co-operation which has been strikingly characteristic of Tuskegee institute and a co-operation vitally necessary for the permanent betterment of the Negro race in our country. Helpful Moral and Material Support. The Tuskegee institute from the very beginning has had a moral and material support and backing from Mr. Campbell and other white people in this community without which this institution would have been impossible. No one knew and appreciated this fact more than did Dr. Washington, and no one could have been more grateful than he was. There were also colored men who stood loyalty by the founder of Tuskegee institute in these early days. 2623-25 WELTON STREET The cleanest, cheapdst, best and most accomodating store in Denver.
