Denver Star

Brooks & Bowen, Fern Hall, Oct. 24th. Entertain Our Guests The Denver Star ESTABLISHED 1888 TWENTY-SEVENTH YEAR Nowata, Okla., Gordonsburg, Tenn., and Cuthbert, Ga., Mobs Run Riot Within the last few days five colored men are reported to have been lynched in the South. At Nowata, Okla., two men, accused of being implicated in the killing of a sheriff, were taken from the jail and lynched in front of court house. At Gordonsburg, Tenn., two men were lynched who had been arrested in connection with the murder of a white man. At Cubbert, Ga., a man was lynched who is alleged to have shot and killed the sheriff. Some members of this mob are alleged to have shot and killed an innocent man while the latter was at work on a plantation. Oklahoma Mob Hangs Two. Nowata, Okla., Sept.—Two colored men, accused of being implicated in the killing of Deputy Sheriff James Gibson during a jail delivery here today, were taken from the jail by a mob to night and lynched in front of the court house. A first attempt to lynch one of the men immediately after their capture was frustrated by the Rev. Perry E. Pierce, a Methodist minister. The mob dispersed but public feeling was not allayed and the mob reformed later, with the announced intention of lynching the two men, who had been returned to jail. When the prisoners had been taken from the jail short work was made of putting them to death. One of the men, John Foreman, alleged to have been the man who killed Gibson, was wounded when taken into custody and was not molested, but the unwounded colored man was seized by the mob, which had grown to large proportions, and a parade thru the principal streets began. When the mob reached the Methodist Church a large tree offered the opportunity which the rope suggested. "Let's lynch the Negro on holy ground!" shouted some one. Rev. Pierce, attracted by the screams, appeared and pleaded with the mob not to perpetrate the lynching, but his effect did not save them. Nashville, Tenn., Sept. Two colored men were lynched at Gordonsburg, near here to-day by a mob that broke into the jail there. The men were dragged thru the streets to the outskirts of the town, where they were bound to trees and shot to death scores of persons firing with rifles revolvers and shotguns. The cause of the arrest and lynching was the murder of a white man named Bud Burns, Saturday night. Cuthbert, Ga., Sept.—Pete Hudson, a colored man, alleged to have shot and killed by a posse in a swamp some distance from here today. Feeling over the shooting of the sheriff was so high that citizens had urged that military be brought here from Macon. This afternoon Hudson was fired upon by his pursuers and he returned the fire. It was thought that Hudson had companions, but he was alone when found. He had been killed by a possemen during an exchange of shots, it is believed. Elijah Sturgis, who had worked on the Harris plantation, thru which the posse went in pursuit of Hudson, was also found shot to death late to day. It is probable that a member of the mob shot this innocent man. Paducah, Ky., Oct. 16.--An infuriated mob of more than 500 persons stormed the county jail here shortly after noon today and lynched two Negroes within two miles of the city. After the bodies were cut down they were thrown on a burning brush heap and cremated. One of the Negroes, Frank Kinley, was accused of having attacked Mrs. Etta Rose last Friday night. The mob took him to the Rose home, two miles from the city, and she identified him as her assailant. The other Negro, Jessc Thornhill, was hanged because he bodily declared that he would have committed the same crime. The mob which lynched the two Negroes formed early this morning. With its ranks constantly increasing as it marched to the jail, the leaders demanded that Kinley be turned over to them. The sheriff turned in a call for the police reserves, Judge Reed of the circuit court was also sent for he came hurriedly and addressed them for more than an hour, speakers from the ranks of the mob came forward and talked in the Negroes behalf but they harrangued the crowd to finish the task begun, rendering all aid powerless in the face of the mob's overwhelming numbers All during the forenoon the disorder and turmoil waxed hot and many Negroes were beaten on the streets. The sheriff, in the meanwhile, had tried to get his charge away for safe keeping, but failed. The climax was reached shortly afternoon when the mob broke the bonds of restraint and took out the Negroes who were taken in automobiles to the Rose home. There Kinley was identified. After they were hanged to a tree the bodies were cut down a fire started. The bodies were thrown in the flames and more wood oiled on. Then, its work completed the mob dispersed and straggled back the two miles to the city. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, OCT. 21, 1916 Retired With Honor After 20 Years Service. Loved and Respected By All. Captain Silas H. Sohnson died at his home, 1721 Marion street last Sunday afternoon at 2:45 at the age of 66 years. Mr. Johnson had been a respected citizen of Denver for 35 years having moved to this city from St. Louis, Missouri in 1881. He served as Deputy Sheriff in that city for three years prior to coming to Denver. In 1895 Captain Johnson was appointed a member of Engine Company No. 3, and in 1897 was appointed captain of the company and served with credit in that capacity until his retirement in January of this year. He was known as one of the most fearless and capable fire fighters in the service. Efficiency, reliability, and Promptness were the keynotes which he so successfully utilized in bringing Engine Company No. 3 up to such a high standard. He had taken active part in some of the most desperate fires in Denver as well as having been highly honored in the demonstrations and celebrations of the Fire Department. He is survived by an only daughter, Mrs. Lottie Cowell. He was a loyal and devoted member at Rocky Mountain Lodge No. 2320, G. U. O. of O. F. and was very active during its earlier history in Denver. He attended nearly every B. M. C. for the past 20 years. He visited and attended the Grand Lodge at Spokane last September and while in Seattle, Washington the white firemen honored him by showing him over the city and other places in an auto. Wherever he went whether east or west the fire com P panies would vie with each other in honoring him. He was also a member of Shorter A. M. E. Church and was a man who wore a white hat underneath which was that broad smile which never came off even in death. He was loved and respected by the entire community. His funeral occured from his residence, Tuesday afternoon and many beautiful floral offerings were the silent spokesmen of the high esteem and respect in which his memory is sacredly cherished Loved and honored by his frienès, respected and esteemed by his acquaintances, distingnished and celebrated at home and abroad, Captain Silas Johnson, a true race man left an enviable record behind for others to emulate. He has gone and his place can never be filled in this community. May he sleep in peace. Atlanta, Ga.-More than four hundred thousand dollars of the money collected from all the people of the state, colored as well as white were appropriated by the Georgia legislature which recently closed for the use of white institutions in the state, with no appropriation that will benefit the Negro. With more than a million Negroes in the state, the only institution for Negroes which is recognized by the state is Georgia State College for Negroes at Savanah, and the $8,000 which was annually appropriated for the school originally came from the Federal land scrip fund, and was the sum taken from Atlanta University because white members of the faculty of that school refused to take their children out of classes with the Negro students. So that it is only what is appropriated in excess of $8000 for the Savannah school that comes from the state treasury. Some of the items included in recent appropriations for white institutions are: Georgia Normal College, Valdosta, $20,000; Georgia Normal and Industrial College, Milledgeville, $50,000; Rebecca Confederate Cemetery, $500; Milledgeville Confederate Cemetery, $1,000; State Normal School, Athens, $100,000, and Georgia Training School for girls $12,500. Among the colored citizens of Atlanta who have expressed themselves in regard to the unfair and unequal distribution of the people's taxes for the public use, Dr. H. R. Butler, one of the pioneer Negro physicians, a large proper owner and taxpayer, commented as follows: "If the State really meant to do the square thing by its colored citizens it would have and support an agricultural school in each of the eleven Congressional districts and a home for the ex-slaves at some central and healthy place in the state. It is not a commendable sight to Georgia and the other Southern States to have these poor old ex-slaves who have spent their best days laboring for their old masters and making crops to feed the armies of the South. If the Confederate soldiers are entitled to a home supported by the State, I hold the ex slave who worked and fed the Confederate soldier is equally entitled to a home supported by the State. "It is never wrong to do right, but in some things it is hard to find the man who is willing to take the responsibility upon himself to dare to do the right. Thus it is in this case; where is the member of the Legislature who (with God and himself) will dare to take up this matter and drive it thru because it is right?" FIVE CENTS A COPY.

Perhaps no man enjoy or has enjoyed the exceptional distinction now given to Theodore Roosevelt by friend and foe alike. Regardless to his many mistakes Teddy still holds fast to the heartstrings of the public. His strong magnetic personality will not let you down it and for that reason the Republican party has selected him to put some THE MUSIC OF THE MUSIC OF THE MUSIC ginger in our Colorado Campaign which has lacked enthusiasm and initiative.

We cannot help but quote what he said, on preparedness in his great Speech in Chicago, when he said. "I ask that we prepare ourselves within, and we cannot prepare ourselves within unless we also prepare against danger from without. I ask you to prepare so that we may secure peace for ourselves and for others, not the peace of cowardice nor the peace of selfishness, but the peace of righteousness and of justice, the peace of brave men pledged to the service of this mighty democratic Republic, and through that service pledged also to the service of of the world at large." "A thief that will steal for me will steal from me when to his advantage" said Roosevelt. The Hon. Chas. E. Hughes, Republican candidate for president, recently said to a delegation of colored men in New York City. "I am and always have been friendly in my feelings to the colored people. I have expressed it in this city at a meeting held with reference to Dr. Washington. I know the burdens and problems of your people. In what I say as to brotherhood and opportunity denied to none because of race, in that word race I include the colored American and am mindful of your problems. "There are parts of my career I cannot bring into politics, but in the position that I have taken is to be seen my principles as to equal right the Americanism for which I stand."

Telephones, York 6007, York 9377. The enthusiasm manifest in the church relative to the Golden Jubilee is abundant assurance of the success of the gigantic undertaking. There were more than 150 persons at the general committee meeting last week, every one of whom is determined to make this the greatest event of the kind in the history of our city. While the occasion is the celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of Zion church, we do not consider this a church activity, but a community enterprise. We therefore invite the fullest cooperation of all our friends in setting forth fifty years of racial development in this community. Committee meetings are held every Friday night and any friend is free to join us in these activities. The chorus, under Prof. Whiteman, is doing good work.

Hubert, who has charge of the Brooklyn office of the league, says: "In our Brooklyn work we come in touch with a large number of boys and girls from time to time who are seeking jobs. For instance, within the first two weeks in September last we had thirty-one applications for work. These consist of those who are seeking employment as well as some who are seeking to improve their present employment. It is therefore along such lines as indicated above that we are bending our most earnest efforts." SHORTER A. M. E. CHURCH Cor. 23rd St. and Washington Ave. Phone Main 7058.

To the Editor of the Denver Star: As I have been a subscriber and well wisher of the Statesman, later the Denver Star, for nearly 15 years continuously, I think I have the right to ask you certain vital questions pertaining to the election of the Governor of this state. You have declared in public print that the Star will not support Mr. Carlson because of the wrongs he did our race. You have advised us not to vote for him. What better person than Mr. Carlson, as bad as you paint him, have you to offer the Negro voters? Is it enough to tear down without building up? Since you are opposing Mr. Carlson so strongly, would it not be better practical wisdom and politics for the Star to advocate someone in his stead as good or better than him? Permit me to suggest to the colored voters, a man who has lived in Colorado nearly a quarter of a century, who has been one of our eminent Supreme Court jurists and against whom no man has aught to say—that man is Hon. Julius C. Gunther. I have known him intimately and worked for him eleven years and I can truthfully say that I would not want to work for a better man. He has always given his record as a Supreme Court Justice and if you can find one place where he has even hinted at discrimination against our people, condemn me with your bitterter denunciation. As a citizen of 18 years in Denver, well known to my fellows, I feel that I would not only do our friend, Mr. Gunther, an injustice if I failed to speak of this at this time, but I would show ingratitude and cowardice. You have said a friend was a friend, Democratic or Republican. Unless you think all Democrats are devils and hate you, and all Republicans are angels and love you, and if these things mentioned are true, why should you not come out and support a man who has never made a promise to you he has broken, never mistreated our race and is willing to give us a square deal. If a man is a man, a friend a friend, I appeal to your broadness of spirit, your inclination to make and win friends, to support Mr. Gunther for Governor. (Signed) FRED BROWN, 1365 Josephine St POLITICAL PLUMS AND THE STAR Let all the world know that the Star is not looking for anything from Mr. Carlson's administration if he happens to be so fortunate as to win. We have received nothing in way of compensation for the expense incurred by us two years ago. The same men are at the helm, with the same story, "poor man's campaign," yet money is being spent right and left, but not so that the Negroes would receive any benefit from it, directly. "Donate your services to your party" is the slogan, but somehow greater recognition is given those who work and get pay than those who are so loyal and devoted and sacrificing as to donate their valuable services. If a Negro Democrat who openly fought Mr. Carlson can be retained, if another erstwhile Democrat can receive a messengership over the protest of loyal Republicans, what need you expect from your voluntary service? If Negro service to the Republican party and to the Governor deserves no more consideration than that, we advise you Negroes to stay at home or go on the Hill and earn your $2 a day. The Star has counted the full cost of sacrifice and opposition it will incur by making this manly fight for the race. It keenly realizes that a RACE paper must STAND BY the RACE first and then partisans, if at all. So you may tell the world that the Star is not looking for any plums but only for a square deal, for which we will contend to the last ditch. The Star would rather oppose Gov. Carlsen in a manly way on a principle and go down in defeat, than to swallow our principle of protest against injustice, indifference and neglect by the Governor, lay down, and win with our support. Negroes, you must be men and women with principle, or persons without principles regardless as to what happens, favors or flowers or troubles or trials. How can you expect real men and women to respect you when you will lay down because you might lose two messengerships? Are these messengerships worth more to the race than resenting wrongs? Better by far for our race to lose the messengerships than gain them at the $2.00 1.00 .50 inch rate, all subscriptions must be paid us sent to subscribers are lost or stolen, or when due, inform us by postal card cate of the missing number.

The Star has been protesting by fighting such wrongs. You must either stand with him against the Star, your only race paper, or with the race paper against him. Which? It is up to you to decide. If this campaign did not include the election of the presidential electors and our Republican Congressmen, the Star would advocate out and out a plan of protest which would be more effective than our present plan. We cannot afford to jeopardize the Republican national ticket nor the election to Congress of Republican Congressmen. Every Negro who votes for Wilson ought to be examined for brain troubles. What has the Republican party done toward acquainting you with the personnel of the State Assembly? How many Georgia, Texas, Missouri and eastern Democrats, who have changed to the Republicans, are now sailing under the colors of the Republican party, with all their hatred and race discrimination? How many? Do you know how they stand on matters touching our race, full crew bill, Jim Crow schools, etc., and union labor and the like? Don't you think it is about time to find out? Who can vouch for any of them? Because they are on the Republican ticket, does that rob them of their prejudices any more than being on the Democratic, Socialistic ticket increases prejudice against the Negroes? We Negroes must sooner or later face the real issue of making friends regardless as to party. Let us only elect men who will not use their power against us when in office, regardless as to who they are, where they come from or what religion they serve. If elected, will they work against us and will they use their influence so that we can be let alone, is the only question which should be paramount in our minds.

Selection of Well Known and Successful Attorney For Senatorial Honors Furnishes Big Surprise In Political Circles—Amply Qualified by Education and Ripe Experience For Position Sought. By N. BARNETT DODSON. Francis H. Warren, the well known and successful lawyer at Detroit, Mich., without effort on his part won the nomination for state senator in the Third senatorial district at the primary elections held in Detroit in September. Attorney Warren's opponents P. A. were two prominent white men. The Detroit Journal gives the following account of how the vote for the three candidates stood. The Journal says: "The man State Senator Jim Hanley will have to beat if he wants to go back to boss the job in Lansing has just discovered that the Democracy of the Third senatorial district has commissioned him to make the contest. In an idle moment Francis H. Warren, busy attorney, dropped into the county clerk's office, gave up $4 and became a candidate for the Democratic nomination. Then he forgot it. He even went out of town, nor did he return till the primary elections were over and people had ceased talking about them." "Lawyer Warren met Judge Hulbert, who said to him: "I think you've been nominated for state senator." "Can't be,' and Mr. Warren laughed. 'Never tried for it, and the other candidates were mighty good men." "The tabulation of the returns was consulted, and this was what it showed: Frank R. Hamburger, secretary of the Detroit Association of Credit Men, 359; Francis Rosenthal, attorney, 251; Francis H. Warren, 1,273. "The Democratic candidate has at least a platform, business administration and economy. He is no mere band wagon follower. He has ideas, and one of these is that every old resident of Michigan should be relieved of that nightmare of the common people, the fear of destination in old age, by means of a pension. In fact, he has already begun to give effect to such a plan with an initiatory petition for a constitutional amendment to pave the way. "Then he would relieve business and labor of taxation as much as possible by gradually reducing the imposts on the fruits of industry and making the unearned increment in land values bear its just share of the burdens of government. The Third district includes the First, Second, Third, Fourth and Sixth wards." Francis H. Warren was born at Sarnia, Ont., in 1864. At the age of four his parents became residents of Saginaw, Mich. Young Warren attended the public school at Saginaw until he was fourteen, at which time he was compelled to leave school in order to assist his parents in earning a living for the family. His first experience in business was gained at Mackinac Island, Mich., in 1887, where he established a barber shop, restaurant and a laundry. In the early nineties Mr. Warren became involved in several lawsuits on the island. He did not get what appeared to him to be a square deal in the courts. After adjusting his legal affairs as best he could Mr. Warren began the study of law in 1896, as he says, for self protection. In 1900 he entered the Detroit College of Law, from which he was graduated with the degree of L.L. B. in 1903 and was admitted to the Detroit bar and on March 6, 1912, to the United States supreme court. Attorney Warren has been identified with economic reforms, such as public ownership of public utilities, old age pension, taxation of community values etc., for a number of years. He is a thoroughgoing advocate for a full and complete application of the American doctrine of equal rights to all, irrespective of race, creed or color. Success of the Rev. Edgar E. Ricks at Roanoke, Va. RESULTS OF YEAR'S WORK Important Elements of Character and Thrift Exemplified In the Career of a Virginia Minister Whose Services In Many Good Movements Have Endeared Him to the People. Roanoke, Va.-The Rev. Edgar E. Ricks, pastor of the First Baptist church in this city, is doing a good work among his parishioners and is also active in all good movements for the civic, moral and business advancement of the race. He was formerly M. B. REV. ROGAR R. RICKER the pastor of the First Baptist church in Washington, where he met with much success. He has been in charge of the First Baptist church here less than eighteen months, but he has accomplished big things through the hearty co-operation of the members. The Rev. Mr. Ricks is a native of Raleigh, N. C. He attended the public schools and the St. Augustine Episcopal school in his native home and afterward the public schools at Washington, whither he moved with his parents while yet a boy. After completing the public school course he entered the theological department of Howard university, from which he graduated. He supplemented his theological course by studying Greek and Hebrew under Professor LaFountaine and an extension course from the Lasalle university at Chicago. The Rev. Mr. Ricks has held many prominent positions in the work of the church and other good movements. He has served as second vice president of the Christian Endeavor union of Washington, president of the Alumni Association of the Theological Department of Howard University, trustee of the Stoddard Baptist Old Folks' home, of the Alley Improvement association and the day nursery, of the Anti-saloon league of Washington. He has a wide reputation as an ardent temperance advocate and was the only colored delegate from Washington attending the meeting of the National Anti-saloon league at Columbus, O., in 1912. He served for two years as the corresponding secretary of the Interdenominational union of Washington. He was recently elected for another term as a member of the advisory board of the Bethel Literary and Historical society at Washington. Rev. Mr. Ricks was the first pastor of the St. John's Baptist church, Arlington, Va., where in less than six years a modern church edifice was built on the main thoroughfare at a cost of nearly $7,000, which was nearly paid before he resigned to take charge of the First Baptist church. West Washington, where he remained for eight years. The bonded debt of $8,000 was paid and over $2,000 in improvements were made. During his pastorate unfermented wine and individual cups for use at the communion service, the envelope system, hymn books with responsive readings, a W. C. T. U. and a wide awake Christian Endeavor society were among the results of his efforts. Rev. Mr. Ricks resigned the pastorate of the First church at Washington to become the pastor of the First Baptist church here. He recently completed his first year as pastor. Among the many things accomplished during the year is the purchase of a $3,000 pipe organ, built in the church and paid for. Mr. Andrew Carnegie, through the efforts of Mr. Ricks, contributed $1,000. A modern steam heating plant has been installed, displacing the hot air furnace which heated the building so poorly that for thirteen years services were held in the basement of the church during the winter season Electric lights were put in the basement and extended to the rear of the main auditorium. The entire interior of the building has been painted and new lavatory facilities installed. Modern methods of doing church work are now being used as suggested by the pastor. The First church is one of the largest in this state of Virginia. The Rev. Mr. Ricks is a thirty-second A Talking Machine Free Gramophone With every 30 new yearly cash subscribers to "The Denver Star," at One Dollar and a Half a year, or for the total amount of every 30 cash yearly subscribers, who pay in advance from their expiring date, One Dollar and a half each, "The Denver Star" will give a Talking Machine, delivered to your residence, to each and every person who brings in the total cash amount of the 30 subscribers paid in advance.

Color Line Engages Attention of Protestant Episcopal Church Conference. The question of electing a bishop of their own race, now being agitated by the members of the Episcopal church among colored people, will soon be decided by the general conference of the Protestant Episcopal church. There are said to be 198 churches, with a membership of 19,998 and 250 ministers, on that denomination among our people. The consensus of opinion seems to be that if these churches cannot get fair and equal treatment under the present system of government in the Episcopal church it is better that a sufficient number of bishops be elected from their membership to serve their churches. NATIONAL EQUAL RIGHTS LEAGUE'S ANNUAL MEETING Wiliant Race Organization Issues Ringing Appeal For Justice. Washington. - The National Equal Rights league at its ninth annual meeting, held in this city in connection with the national citizens' rights congress from Oct. 4 to 6, adopted the following declaration and appeal to the country: The National Equal Rights league appeals to the voters of the United States to sustain in each and every state of our country the principles of equality of citizenship, equality of opportunity in federal civil service employment, equality of protection in the administration of justice, equality of freedom in the use of the ballot and equality and fair play in industrial pursuits. Equality of human rights in this country should not be destroyed by the continued enforcement of unreasonable human tyranny at the south. Work in the civil service should be equally open to all without the application of methods that result in race discrimination, race segregation and race humiliation in work or wages to any citizen. We warn the voters of the country against the power of the labor unions, which have grown both formidable and dangerous within the last few years. For more than thirty years these organizations have done what they could to stave all persons not members of the labor unions and have also excluded colored laborers therefrom. A vote for any candidate for state or national office who favors race segregation means a vote for the destruction of equality of citizenship in the north, east and west, as well as in the south. Such a vote means the complete choking of equal opportunity in life's struggles. It means the establishment of a rigid caste system directly adverse to 10,000,000 and applied to industrial pursuits and operated so as to exclude and prevent the class under the ban of southern race prejudice from participation in gainful occupations. It means an indorsement of the present propaganda of race segregation and race humiliation in the executive departments of the government. Our government is founded upon the principle of equal freedom and exact justice to all men, but we now have just the opposite to equal freedom and exact justice to ten millions of loyal colored American citizens. We have been told that the race segregation in work and wages, race humiliation and race insult in the executive departments of the government were inaugurated by subordinates, yet they have not been disturbed. Owing to the alarming extension of color caste, reaching even the right of domicile and invading the federal government, we, as Americans, declare our opposition to the whole policy of race separation, for color in public and semipublic institutions, whether for education, recreation or what not, in places open to the public for accommodation or resort, as undemocratic and un-American, increasing and perpetuating race prejudice and constituting essentially a denial of equality of rights and destined to make of colored Americans social and civic outcasts.

The large number of applicants for admission to the West Virginia Collegiate institute for the coming term indicates that there will be a notable increase in the number of new students when the fall session opens on Wednesday. Sept. 20. President Byrd Prillerman has thoroughly demonstrated his ability and capacity as an educational leader of the first order by his splendid management of the affairs of the institution. The fact that the school has been raised to college rank has created great interest. Many of the new applicants will enter the college department. It is said there is no other institution in the United States especially for the training of colored youth, that gives a college course in vocational training or that places the same emphasis on vocational training as is placed on the academic studies at the West Virginia Collegiate institute. For this reason students who have wanted a college course in home economics, agriculture or any other vocational subject were compelled to attend some college or university in the north or west. This places the young colored men and women seeking an education to a great disadvantage, for the reason that they cannot usually secure dormitory accommodations at these institutions, their expenses are extremely heavy, and they are in a great measure deprived of the advantages of social life. There are several graduates of the collegiate institute pursuing vocational courses in northern colleges that would have taken the course at their own state school had such provision been made at the time of their graduation. There is no other Negro college closer than, 500 miles of the West Virginia Collegiate Institute. President Prillerman says: "The earning power of the Negro laborer of West Virginia is greater than that of any other state in the Union. A large number of the Negro population of West Virginia is in the coal fields. Since they do not find much opportunity for investment of their earnings in real estate, they are willing to invest in the education of their children. "The governor, the state board of control, the state regents and other state authorities have shown such interest in the education of our Negro youth that the administration of the West Virginia Collegiate institute and Negro citizens generally feel that the institution has greater opportunity for usefulness than most other similar institutions in the country." When President Prillerman took charge of this institution seven years ago its largest enrollment to that time had been 235 students, with a faculty of twenty-two teachers. This year, 1916, it enrolled 382 students and had a faculty of twenty-five teachers. For the year 1908-9 the state appropriation for salary and wages was $17,450; for 1915-16 it was $21,500. In these seven years the student body has increased 625 per cent, while the faculty has increased in number only 41-6 per cent, and the state appropriation for salary and wages has increased only 231-5 per cent. All the departments of the school have been strengthened, one year has been added to the academic course, the name of the school changed, the college department added and a summer school for teachers maintained each year. Seventh Mourns Death of Williams. David R. Williams, who died the first week in October, had been an employee of the Seventh regiment, national guard of New York, for forty years. Mr. Williams grew up with Company K and was well known in military circles throughout the state. Major Charles E. Lydecker ordered the flag lowered to half mast over the Seventh regiment armory during the funeral services held for Mr. Williams on Sunday, Oct. 8, in recognition of the faithful services of the deceased and for the high esteem in which he was held by the members of the regiment. Form Republican Club at Lakeland.
