The Die Is Cast, Let Us Face Facts
Men's Mistakes Make Opportunity For Others. Star Supports Judge Gunter As The Best Choice for Governor
This is a day of actual living activities. There are no shams in living life, something must be doing all the time, either upward or downward. What has the Negro gained these past two years thru his political suffrage and influence? Has what he has gained commasurate in pay for what he has lost thru neglect or indifference or suffered? Has it paid really? Answer. Really has the election of Mr. Carlson benefited the Negro race or the representative Negro? The education of the Negroes of Colorado ranges from and consists of the University. Collegiate, High and Grammar school. They have worked hard, developed much in finance, morals, civic pride, intellectuality, philanthropy, culture and refinement and as a great body, they weilded their influence for the Republican Party in general and Gov. Carlson in particular. And as a reward to these professional, cultured men and women, Gov. Carlson, out of the abundance of his big heart, has given the race, the generous recognition of two messengerships, to encourage the sterling qualities of the race in its advancement upwards!!
For a Republican to give messenger jobs to men fitted for higher and better things or to give our bright and best representative women maid jobs, when they are capable of better and more representative things, does not look well for the donor and his estimate of the ability and quality of the Negro race. How are we ever going to show our friends and enemies that the same kind of education taught in their public schools and which makes them aspire produces the like effect upon us.
The greatest trouble in our nation and in Colorado both with the Democrats and Republicans is that they fail, refuse and neglect to keenly realize and appreciate that ten millions of Negroes who have in one generation changed from a slave to a free labor system, re-established family life, accumulated one billion dollars in real property including 20 million acres of land, and reduced their illiteracy from 90 to 30 percent, deserve and must have political recognition, justice, opportunity and a voice in their own government. My fellow citizens and readers, whether you agree with us or not the facts remain so evident and recent deeds done under our late Mayor Speer speak so eloquently that it does not require a philosopher or a statesman to see a light in a sky long shrouded in darkness. All that is needed is a clear vision and a mind free from the cob webs of ancient history and traditional prejudice. The sensible, thoughtful Negro will develop his individuality by emancipating himself from party slavery far enongh to see good in other men who happen to be upon other tickets. They will wipe out that aged party debt paid so long ago to the Republican and permit themselves to vote according to the dictate of their own conscience. Because the profound and intelligent Negro sees that in case of success when these impending dangers of Jim Crows threaten to deal with us as a racial mass, and not as men, recognized by worth and merit that he can rightfully go to democrats and republicans and ask for the stopping of these wrongs on a different basis than if a racial mass voted one way. Negroes of Colorado we need friends more than we do a republican or democratic governor. Let us look after the Negro first. In choosing the least of two evils—a man without principle and word supported by a party of principles or a man with principle, and word supported by a party without principles—choose the man with principle and word, for if he be honest he will give you a square deal. In choosing the best of two political leaders, the unbiased Negro will surely choose Julius C. Gunter, a man who has never promised anything, never broken his promise nor duty to any class nor has ever discriminated against us when he would have.
Nearly a half century ago the talent of American citizen ship was given to the Negro. Wherein to day, after voting like wooden blocks all these years, CAN HE REALLY show an increase of his powers as a citizen? Can he? Answer, Mr. Blind Republican. Almost by gradual steps backwards as the Republican party has pushed onward, forward, have the Negroes descended lower and lower in the scale of American citizenship. The National Democratic party is partly responsible as the sole agent of his retrogression; yet we know and you know except for 16 years, nearly the absolute power, has been in the hands of the Republicans Whether in that clause apportioning direct taxes and representations the sole judge of the several states, or in that
which makes the House of Representatives the sole judge of the qualifications of its own members or in the clause which guarantees to each state a Republican form of Government there is ample law in the Constitution. It is not legislation nor declarations in the political parties platform we need, but an honest form and unyielding desire and effort to enforce the law already written.
NOTHING BUT SHARE WORDS.
President Wilson, speak before the citizenship convention, urged a "square o' for the immigrant and manded that America be the finest example of the jects and ideals that g promote the standards of world.
This the Republican party in many instances has failed to do. We know it, you know it, and they know it until the claims of the Negro have been looked upon as a joke. There are two kinds of sins—the sin of omission and the sin of commission and the standing by and not doing those things which ought to be done is just as capable as the doing of those things which ought not to be done. Summing up the relationship of the black men and women to the government under which they live, we have to confront disfranchisement of our voters, lynching of men and women federal Jim crowism by President Wilson, race segregation of all sorts in all public and semi public institutions, as well as public carriers, domiciles and residences and in all places open to the public, as unchristian, undemocratic and un-American, we note the attempt made to create, and per petuate race prejudice. In Colorado with residential segregation hanging over our heads, with Republican officials permitting such plays as the Birth of Nation to be brought in our state to intensity our relations with white neighbors. What shall we do?
In this State campaign it is not so much Democrats or Republicans as it is segregation and injustice against those real men who will with us help us to fight this curse down.
Colored Attorney and Wife Ordered From Sleeping
The Honorable Perry W. Howard, attorney- at-law Jackson, Miss., and president of the National Negro Bar Association, and wite were returning from New York to their home at Jackson, Miss., on September 24, and had enjoyed their lower berth from New York until they reached the confines of Kentucky when a burly train conductor, about 10 o'clock in the night, ordered them to the day coach upon the complaint of two white persons in the sleeper and they stubbornly refused to go, and for a time a sensational moment ensued. But they stood their ground and stated that if they were moved to the day coach it must be by force, as they were inter-state passengers, and held both their sleeping car and train tickets.
It was learned that the com-
plaining parties were from
Texas, and one of their kicks
was that they had to take an
upper berth when "Niggers"
had a lower berth.-Freeman.
NOTHING BUT SHAM WORDS.
President Wilson, speaking before the citizenship convention, urged a "square deal" for the immigrant and demanded that America be kept the finest example of the objects and ideals that go to promote the standards of the world.
"We ought to be careful to maintain a government at which the immigrant can look with the closest scrutiny and to which he should be at liberty to address this question: 'You declare this to be a land liberty and of equality and of justice; have you made it so by your law?'
"I believe America should exalt above everything else the sovereignty of thoughtfulness and sympathy and vision, as against the grosser impulses of mankind. No nation can live without vision, and no vision will exalt a nation except the vision of real liberty and real justice and purity of conduct."
Natural born Americans were warned by the president to examine themselves carefully to see whether they have burning in them the true light of America which they expect to show to these foreigners. If a "square deal" for the immigrant why not a square deal for 10,000,000 American Born citizens who are hounded and humiliated, discrimi- nanted against and often mobmurdered because more or less African blood flows in their veins? The president is the leader of the Democratic party which has displayed the greatest zeal in enacting discrimi- nating legislation and the president himself has santi- ored the most infamous racial discriminations which were wholly outside the law.
The president's rhetoric is perfect, but those who have suffered from the enactments of the Democratic party and the president's approval of unjust and unlawful and un-American practices, naturally doubt his sincerity. His beau tiful words are but bunk.
The Georgia senators have been asked to appear before the Supreme Court at the rehearing of the Louisville, Ky. segregation case. There are said to be 8,000 vacant houses in Louisville on account of the segregation law.
The segregation order referred to on-page 300 of the October Crisis was quickly revoked through the interference of Senator Martine of New Jersey, the President's political foe, and other Western senators.

VOTE HUGHES AND FAIRBANKS
Send Republican Congressmen
Behind Them Put Your Heart, Prayers and Life if Necessary.
We have almost come to the end of our journey toward the final decision which you are to make November 7th. This plea is made to you, and each of you, as thinking and well respected and intentioned voters and citizens.
After fifty years of suffering, sacrifice and denial of the so called American freedom in this country, what is the prevailing condition today of our Colored American population? Briefly, it is this: Our civil rights have been rendered almost futile; we are shamefully curtailed politically; we are denied equality before the law; we are not allowed equal industrial opportunities; our property and our very lives are not at all secure; and "the black horrors and fiendishness of lynching and burning of our men and women," Colored Americans continue unabated.
While our Federal Government's indifference toward all these injustices is but little less than the nullification of great war amendments. Throughout the Southland and to more or less extent in the North, the increasing millions of our fellow Colored-Americans are being more and more reduced to the pitiable condition of political serfs and social outcasts.
If our Colored Soldiers being ruthlessly murdered in Mexico, our men and women burned and hacked in Kentucky, Georgia and Texas and our property being destroyed by Jim Crowism. as well as, our President forcing his prejudice into our government crystallizing and attempting to perpetuate it by "Federal Jim Crow orders", if such conditions do not stir our bleeding souls and our loyal blood, what under heaven can do it? Under Pres. Wilson we have been kicked out of federal appointments denied industrial opportunities, not allowed the freedom of speech and press, the civic and political rights have been taken from us, our property and lives have been insecure and if any Negro could vote for such a man, he needs to be flogged and returned to slavery.
Again, in this fierce era of controversy and bloodshed; cannot we turn to our only ray of hope, President Hughes and Fairbanks with our votes November 7. We know the South is in the saddle at our National Capitol, rushing headlong with a most reckless disgrace of the feelings and rights of ten millions of loyal, but oppressed Colored Americans.
Colored Americans on November 7, let us begin our second half legal freedom by preserving that freedom, by the enjoyment of identical civil and political rights with others, by securing that exemption from galling discriminations in public life, which were bought at the price of billions of treasure and of the health and lives of millions of white and Colored patriots.
By voting Hughes and Fairbanks in let us face the forces of prejudice and of the Bourbon South and spurn the bribe ever offered for voluntary segregation, honor the deeds of the abolitionists and refuse to sell our birthright for a mess of pottage.
KEPT HIS WORD
Mayor Speer has filed supplemental papers to modify the sweeping order in the "Birth of Nation" case decided by Judge Butler (Rep. Judge) sometime ago which was to the effect that the play did not arrouse race hatred or prejudice. Since the allowing of the play, attempt has been made to segregate the Negroes in this city.

Attention has been called to the fact that the militia which responded to the call of President Wilson came from the North and not from the South. None came from North Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, Mississippi and Alabama, and only 500 from Louisiana.

He is a master at the piano. He will

Elocution sketches from Shakespeare, Longfellow and Paul Lawrence Dunbar, by Albert Ross, of Law-Oratory department of Michigan University, revealed a wide range of talent, from the sublime to the ridiculous, and so captivated the audience that they recalled him for three encores."—Ann Arbor.

WOMAN'S POWER FELT IN POLITICS—COLORADO HAS HER WOMAN'S CLUBS.
The National Republican Party has for the first time in its history recognized the voting power of the Colorad woman by establishing at Chicago, Ills., Colored Women's Hughes' Republican Headquarters.
This Bureau is fully equipped with responsible and representative Colored women in charge: Mrs. Elizabeth Lindsey Davis, the well known club woman, is Chairman; Mrs. Ada McKinley, Secretary, and Mrs. Fannie Barrier Williams is in charge of the Publicity Department. The party recognizes that one of the most interesting and significant features of this campaign is the fact that there are 60,000 Colored women in the thirteen suffrage States who can cast their vote for president of the United States and in some States they may hold the balance of power.
This Bureau hopes, through the Colored press, clubs, churches and other organizations to reach a large number of the colored women in the Suffrage States and urge them to cast their votes for Hughes who stands for equal rights to all me nreardless of color.
Yours truly,
ELIZABETH LINDSAY DAVIS,
Chairman.
Let us make friends by picking out our friends who will and can help us now and later. Mass Meetings, resolutions and seeing this or that official when the trouble is on, won't help, now is the time to "get and have an understanding about the welfare of our race" and not after while. Protect and preserve yourself. Fight your own battles and when in need of help, call upon the person whom you have befriended, no matter what is his or her politics if she or he is in the position to help in the time of need.
COLORED NATIONAL Y. W. C. A
SECRETARY VISITS DENVER.
Miss Eva D. Bowles, a national secretary of the Young Women's Christian Association, arrived in Denver this week and is making her first official visit to the Phyllis Wheatley Y. W. C. A. club, located at 318 25th St. During her stay in this city Miss Bowles is to be the guest of Mrs. Hattie B. Payne, 2420 Clarkson St., and will be at home there to all women and girls interested in the Y. W. C. A.
Miss Bowles hails from Columbus, Ohio, and for many years has been interested in educational work of her people. She began her work in the colored Young Women's Christian Association in New York City, New York about ten years ago as its first general secretary. She has successfully held her position on the secretarial force of the National Board, Y. W. C. A., for nearly four years.
For many years Mrs. W. A. Hunton, wife of the dean of the colored secretarial force of the Y. M. C. A. in America, labored in the interest of the Y. W. C. A. among colored young women and was the special worker of color on the secretarial force of the National Board. Thru her efforts nearly eight years ago a young woman in the person of Miss Elizabeth Ross, now Mrs. George Edmund Haynes, became our first national student secretary. After two years when she resigned to get married, Miss Cecelia Holloway became her successor. She married two years later and was succeeded by Miss Josephine V. Pinyon, who served for four years, resigning recently to become teacher in Summer high school, Kansas City, Kansas.
It was about February, 1913, that Mrs. Hunton's dream was realized in the appointment of Miss Bowles on the secretarial force of the National Board for colored Y. W. C. A. work in cities.
The Phyllis Wheatley Y. W. C. A. club is glad to welcome Miss Bowles and invites the public to attend our first anniversary celebration at the People's Presbyterian church where Miss Bowles is to be the speaker at 8 p. m. Monday evening, Oct. 30. An informal reception will follow in the Association rooms across the street.
Miss Bowles will also speak at the Vesper service at 4 p. m. Sunday. During her stay she will survey the field and the possibilities of the Y. W. C. A. work among our women and girls in Denver.

Y. W. AND Y. M. C. A. BIG UNION
SUCCESS
Sunday afternoon was one of the greatest religious successes ever witnessed in our city, when the W. Y. C. A. and the Y. M. C. A. joined hands and met at the Presbyterian church with Rev. Orr as the speaker. To those who had attended such 4 o'clock meetings in the East, this was a sweet reflection of those good bygone days, as Rev. Orr swayed his attentive audience to and fro with the simple gospel of Jesus' life and saying "I am the light of the world." These religious organizations should be encouraged to have these meetings often and the public should take advantage of these wonderful opportunities. We did not see any personal workers, male or female, during and after the appeal to the sinners, which doubtless could have been productive of much good. The Star has been greatly benefited by such meetings. Have more.
CHANGES DUE TO EUROPEAN WAR
Effect of the Great Conflict Upon the Negro.
NEW AVENUES FOR SERVICE
Wilson Jefferson In Entertaining Article Predicts Better Times For the Colored Workmen In the Absence of Foreign Laborers—Abundant Supply of Labor South Cause of Low Wages.
In discussing the effect of the European war on the Negro in a recent issue of the New York Evening Post Wilson Jefferson in part says:
The present war has brought the blacks of the British and French colonies to the front. Up against the varying fortunes of war and on foreign soil, they have proved both apt and tractable. These countries are not unaware of their strength and hardihood and of the uses to which this strength could be put in the great work of rebuilding their destroyed cities, industries and railroads.
France particularly will need them solemly and, judging her by the past treatment of her black citizens, will not hesitate to use them freely. However, our more immediate concern is with the American Negro, and it is chiefly of the effects of the war upon him that this article wishes to treat. Heretofore the workers in our mines, on our railroads and in the shops and factories have been recruited almost wholly from Europe. This army of people which swarms to our shores at the rate of over 1,000,000 a year has now practically ceased to come at all. For the present they cannot come on account of conditions over which they have no control. In the future, on account of their depleted populations, the countries now at war will no doubt frame laws to keep at home the able bodied survivors of the conflict.
If the war lasts another two years, or even if it ends sooner, this country will be almost entirely dependent upon the Negro of the south for its supply of unskilled labor. This supply of labor is plentiful. Like the market of Europe, the black man of the south wants to better the conditions under which he works. He is not satisfied with his wages, with his status in society or with the homes and neighborhoods he must live in. He is eager to avail himself of opportunities to labor under better conditions.
The picked Negro laborer makes the best unskilled worker in the world. The south will acknowledge this. But the south has not profited by this labor to the extent that it is willing to pay for it a decent, living wage. Negro wages in the south are a standing disgrace. The Negro has been at the mercy of the employer class of the south. And this wage scale for Negroes has, next to liquor, been a prolific cause of crime.
You cannot blame a man much for not wanting to work for $3 or $4 a week in the hot sun of the fields or in the malarial brickyards or at the lumber camps. Petty thieving, where there is a chance, grows out of petty wages. It has not been on account of its poverty that the south has paid the black man so poorly. The wage has been low because the supply of labor has been plentiful. Only in recent months have there been signs that this supply might be drawn upon by the east and middle west to the detriment of southern industries.
In the south the poorer whites will be forced to do some of the harder tasks of the shop and field and will be forced to do what they have never hitherto done - fit themselves for housework and other work calling for more or less personal service. And it will all work to the Negro's gain. The employer will not be able to get along without the help of both, and the white worker will not be willing to work for the Negro wage.
Some of the trades in the south offer an example of white and Negro co-operation. In them Negro and white unions affiliate for their mutual protection. As a consequence, in the building trades, for example, the wage compares favorably with the scale in other parts of the country. Among unskilled workers there will be unions and affiliations of a similar nature and a much higher wage scale will prevail as a result.
Nothing has hampered the Negro more as a race than the inability of its great body of workers to make a decent living. From the beginning he has been dependent upon a cold and indifferent white south, which has always been willing to feed him and to praise him (as servants), but never willing to pay him very much in the way of wages. The Negro is rapidly learning that $10 a month and regular habits are infinitely better than $15 or $20 a month and irregular habits.
There will not be much difficulty attending the effort of the Negro to adjust himself to the discipline of the shops and factories and business places of the north and west. Only those of us who live very near to their struggles know just how indifferent has been the average southern employer to the needs of his workmen. The laws give these men absolutely no protection. The bulk of them are as capable and live as clean lives as do a corresponding class among any people. They are as ambitious. Given a fair chance they will, no doubt, prove more efficient as all around workers than any class of foreigners.

WHERE THE STAR STANDS.
In answer to the query made concerning our stand on Judge Gunter and with the paramount idea that we are trying now to put into office person who are kindly disposed toward us and will not use their influence with those who unjustly wrong us, The Star makes the following reply: First, subtract from, or strip Governor Carlson and Ex-Supreme Court Justice Gunter of their titles and their party affiliations, view their actions while in office and compare records. We now have two white men, each candidate for the same of office, to be judged by Colored voters. Realizing that a white man is a white man and as such holds certain ideas as to all Negroes and eliminating the common term "white," we then reduce them to all men candidates—Messrs. Carlson and Gunter. Both men served as officials in the state and have made their records. Because of the peculiar conditions surrounding Mr. Carlson's election, he made certain pre-election promises concerning the Negroes, touching a square deal and equal and exact justice to the Negro voters. Mr. Carlson was elected upon these pledges so made to the Negroes. Has he kept them? He has not. But on the contrary, he kept a Colored democrat nine months in office, supposed to be given to a Negro Republican. He went outside of his party and hunted up a half Negro Republican and half democrat who did not contribute one solitary thing to his election and gave a job over a worthy porter, Clarence Holmes, and over the protests of his followers. He ignored our women in appointments. On the other hand, Mr. Gunter made no promises to keep. His decisions were fair to us, not a hint of prejudice in any of them or pledges to any Negroes when he was a candidate for office. He had none but in the case of Harry Cowell, Guardian vs. Casualty Insurance Co., when State Chairman Milton Smith of the Democratic Party, Attorney for the Casualty Co., boasted how he was going to win because Mr. Gunter was a democrat, and Harry Cowell's lawyer was a republican with Negro clients. Judge Gunter wrote the decision in the case giving victory to the Munday girls whom we all know and love for the record as teachers they have made. If Judge Gunter had had a "yellow streak" it would have shown there. From all we can gather after a careful and close examination into the record, is that he is a non-assuming, polished gentleman of Southern extraction. He is big hearted and broadminded, so everybody testifies. So The Star is willing to take a chance from a racial point of view on the man Gunter in preference to the man Carlson, who has broken faith with us. When in office if Mr. Carlson, in giving out plums, thought so much of his Negro democrats that he wanted to convert them into republicans, ignoring his friends who supported him, why should not we make friends with white democrats whom we can look in the face, with whom we can rub with cah and call on to assist us righting our wrongs? Why? We do not believe that all Republicans love Negroes and that all Democrats hate Negroes, but we believe in men first with principle and not so much in men standing upon or tied to principles. An honest and true man on bad principles will be square to all, but a dishonest man tied to good principles, still remains dishonest. In taking the position, we ignore party and cleave to what we think will serve the best interest of our race. To all of those people who are so blind, so wanting in real courage in meeting and resenting wrongs properly, to all who want to swallow Carlson, who helped Nesbit, who insulted us in spite of our fight for him, to all of those who approve of Mr. Carlson ignoring our women, whom we love and think as dear and sacred as any women on earth, to all of those too timid and afraid to look Mr. Carlson in his face and tell him he wronged us and because you did we will oppose you at the polls; to all those who expect the Republican party to do the fighting for us, which we ought to do for ourselves; to all of those who think they can win rights, proper recognition and respect of their white low citizens by silently, peacefully protesting and then laying down when it comes to stand up and out, as a target of abuse, and misrepresentation, like all real men have had to do; to all those who disagree with us, we say that we trust that you will see the real light and the Negro race's interest first before Nov. 7th, and like men in solid ranks resent the insults offered. If two messengerships are the prices you deem dearer than real manhood and womanhood, you take Carlson, his messengerships, and we will take Gunter and real manhood and womanhood.
Dear Readers: Do you know upon the republican ticket there appears the name of Robert Harris for the legislature and that he is the man who introduced this famous "anti-tipping bill" which forbids porters, waiters, maids, etc, from accepting tips. The Sar's advice is to kill him. This law strikes directly at us. Will you vote for him when you know him because he is a republican and against some one else whom you don't know because he is on the other side of the fence? Let the Negroes look out for their friends whom we will need, as the State Constitution and Laws are being threatened to be changed. Safety first!
In answer to the query made concerning our stand on Judge Gunter and with the paramount idea that we are trying now to put into office persons who are kindly disposed toward us and will not use their influence with those who unjustly wrong us, The Star makes the following reply: First, subtract from, or strip Governor Carlson and ExSupreme Court Justice Gunter of their titles and their party affiliations, view their actions while in office and compare records. We now have two white men, each candidate for the same office, to be judged by Colored voters. Realizing that a white man is a white man and as such holds certain ideas as to all Negroes and eliminating the common term "white," we then reduce them to men candidates—Messrs. Carlson and Gunter. Both men served as officials in the state and have made their records. Because of the peculiar conditions surrounding Mr. Carlson's election, he made certain pre-election promises concerning the Negroes, touching a square deal and equal and exact justice to the Negro voters. Mr. Carlson was elected upon these pledges so made to the Negroes. Has he kept them? He has not. But on the contrary, he kept a Colored democrat nine months in office, supposed to be given to a Negro Republican. He went outside of his party and hunted up a half Negro Republican and half democrat who did not contribute one solitary thing to his election and gave a job over a worthy supporter, Clarence Holmes, and over the protests of his followers. He ignored our women in appointments. On the other hand, Mr. Gunter made no promises to keep. His decisions were fair to us, not a hint of prejudice in any of them, or pledges to any Negroes when he was a candidate for office. He had none but in the case of Harry Cowell, Guardian vs. Casualty Insurance Co., when State Chairman Milton Smith of the Democratic Party, Attorney for the Casualty Co., boasted how he was going to win because Mr. Gunter was a democrat, and Harry Cowell's lawyer was a republican with Negro clients. Judge Gunter wrote the decision in the case giving victory to the Munday girls whom we all know and love for the record as teachers they have made. If Judge Gunter had had a "yellow streak" it would have shown there. From all we can gather after a careful and close examination into his record, that he is a non-assuming, polished gentleman of Southern extraction. He is big-hearted and broadminded, so everybody testifies. So The Star is willing to take a chance from a racial point of view on the man Gunter in preference to the man Carlson, who has broken faith with us. When in office if Mr. Carlson, in giving out plums, thought so much of his Negro democrats that he wanted to convert them into republicans, ignoring his friends who supported him, why should not we make friends with white democrats whom we can look in the face, with whom we can rub elbows and call on to assist us righting our wrongs? Why? We do not believe that all Republicans love Negroes and that all Democrats hate Negroes, but we believe in men first with principle and not so much in men standing upon or tied to principles. An honest and true man on bad principles will be square to all, but a dishonest man tied to good principles, still remains dishonest. In taking our position, we ignore party and cleave to what we think will serve the best interest of our race. To all of those people who are so blind, so wanting in real courage in meeting and resenting wrongs properly, to all who want to swallow Carlson, who helped Nesbit, who insulted us in spite of our fight for him, to all of those who approve of Mr. Carlson ignoring our women, whom we love and think as dear and sacred as any women on earth, to all of those too timid and afraid to look Mr. Carlson in his face and tell him he wronged us and because you did we will oppose you at the polls; to all those who expect the Republican party to do the fighting for us, which we ought to do for ourselves; to all of those who think they can win rights, proper recognition and respect of their white fellow citizens by silently, peacefully protesting and then laying down when it comes to stand up and out, as a target of abuse, and misrepresentation, like all real men have had to do; to all those who disagree with us, we say that we trust that you will see the real light and the Negro race's interest first be fore Nov. 7th, and like men in solid ranks resent the insults offered. If two messengerships are the prices you deem dearer than real manhood and womanhood, you take Carlson, his messengerships, and we will take Gunter and real manhood and womanhood.

Vote for Amendment 4 and 7. Vote against all rest.
Will the Negro pocket his pride, hat in hand, with a characteristic grin of a messenger and slink back to the very one who betrayed him?
Deserted by a Republican Governor, undesirable, and not wanted in the National democratic party, which way shall the Negro turn his face in this campaign, and whither direct his steps? Over yonder on the hill of progress is the sun-glinted camp of race loving, free, independent and sacrificing Negroes who cannot be bought off nor bull-dozed into cowardice or treachery to the race. Waving proudly above the camp is the banner inscribed "Justice, friendship and opportunity for all and we invite into our ranks men and women entirely without regard to their creed, birthplace or color of skin." Should the Negro go in and enroll or still hanker after the broken promises of that Republican Governor? Will the Negro simply use common sense instead of mere sentiment remembering that a white man is a white man regardless as to his party? In this busy life of competition with labor unions pitted against us, federal "Jim Crowism," city residential caste discrimination threatened, is the Negro so blind and sentimental that he cannot see that in progress and advancement, that this is an opportunity to rebuke the political treachery of our Governor and assist in increasing our civic betterment? Is the Negro of Colorado so deaf that he cannot hear the voice of self-interest and self-protection calling and urging him to join Progress and Opportunity and honorable peace?
What have we to gain by casting our vote against Mr. Carlson for Mr. Gunter? Everything! What have we to lose? Two Messengerships!
The Negro cannot expect the Republican party or any other party to do his own fighting. The Republican party must take of itself, so must the Negro. Segregation must not get into Colorado.

The sum of the suffrage is this: Half the governed, even in cultured lands, have no voice in their government. This is wrong. From now until November, and probably then, you may have a right or you can at least help right this wrong. Will you do it? Remember, one step toward the abolition of unjust race discrimination is the abolition of unfair discrimination because of sex.—Crisis.
President Wilson opposes the granting of woman suffrage because Negro women might benefit by it.

Mulnix Figure Wizard Candidate for State Treasurer Calls Numerals by First Name and Makes 'Em Stand in Line.
"If your Harry E. Mulnix were not serving the people of his state, and should be in the market for a job, he could have one as figure expert for any of several insurance companies, and at a salary about five times what he is now getting as auditor or will get when he is elected treasurer."
It was the head of an Eastern insurance company, visiting in Denver, who volunteered this statement, and in it he sized up Harry Mulnix's capabilities better than they could be written in a serial story.

Harry Mulnix is reckoned a veritable wizard at figures. He has lived with them all his life—as state treasurer in 1895-6, then as public accountant, and for the last two years as state auditor. He knows those figures by their first names, and he can line them up and make them perform, but always correctly. In the state house he is the fountain head of figuring knowledge. In his head, waiting for his tongue to call on them, are all the statistics and figures of state—salaries, appropriations, receipts of departments, disbursements, cash on hand, surplus—everything. And often is he suddenly called upon to give out information, doing so with accuracy and without consulting books.
When he was born in Pennsylvania that state probably didn't realize that it was giving to Colorado one who would know more about arithmetic and higher mathematics than the men who invented those pleasing pastimes. It was thirty-eight years ago that he came here, engaging in the contracting business, only to have his ability recognized with the position of state treasurer in 1894. It is a rather singular coincidence that after twenty-two years he should be the unanimous choice of the Republican assembly for the same office he had filled so ably.
After his term as treasurer he took up public accounting. This carried him over the entire state and he has a handshaking acquaintance with thousands. He knows every phase of state government, his office force is a perfectly balanced, polite and efficient organization, and his own absolute reliability is embodied in the word which often goes through the state house: "Ask Mulnix: he knows."
HOW ONE CAN VOTE FOR HUGHES FOR PRESIDENT AND GUN- TER FOR GOVERNOR?
Because of the many telephone calls and inquiries at the office as to how a voter can vote against Carlson and still vote a Republican ticket, we publish the following. Be sure you place a cross (X) opposite Hughes' and Fairbanks' names and place an (X) opposite all the Republican electors, also one opposite Wm. N. Vaile for congressman and a cross (X) opposite Justices Bailey and Gabbert, and then turn and leave blank, unmarked, Mr. Carlson's name, but place the cross (X) opposite Judge Gunter's name. Then place a (X) opposite Moses E. Lewis, Harry Mulnix, John F. Ramer, Ollie Thorsen, Leslie M. Hubbard, Mrs. C. C. Bradford, and opposite the names of Carpenter, Starkweather and Williams for State Senators. The instructions, together with the Star's marked ballot, will come in our next week's issue. The Star's ticket will be a ticket which will look out for the Negro race. We selected the names only after a careful search of the records of the candidates. We therefore recommend these names to you with the completed list next Saturday.

RESOLUTION OF CONDOLENCE
Denver, Colo., Oct. 14, 1916.
Whereas, God in His mysterious way has visited the home of our worthy treasurer, Bro. Charles A. Burton, and taken unto himself his beloved wife;
We can only say and hope she is transformed to one of the brightest "angels encircling the throne of God."
We, the officers and inmates of Naomi Household of Ruth No. 4130, sympathize with you in the hour of your bereavement. We know that to all this hour of sadness must come.
But to us who believe that all things work together for good to those who love the Lord, there springs in our hearts that blessed hope we have for the future. Which forces us in the hour of sadness to say, "My hope is built on nothing less than Jesus' blood and righteousness."
Therefore, be it Resolved, that we bow in humble submission to the will of Him who doeth all things well, and in the language of the poet, say:
"Why should our tears in sorrow flow When God recalls his own?
Their toils are past, their work is done;
Then let our sorrow cease to flow, But let our hearts in every woe still say,
Thy will be done."
Be it further Resolved, that a copy of these resolutions be sent to the bereaved family and one be spread on the minutes.

The Social Phenomenon of the Season. Mrs. Julia Calloway Triumphs in Glory.
For the first time in the history of Denver, Mrs. Julia Calloway, assisted by some of her choicest friends under the name of "Paris de Ville" gave one of the most social extraordinaries ever witnessed in Denver in the form of an electric ball. Words fall in the grandeur of the decorations of streaming interlacing ribbons of gold, green and vari-shaded purple and red, beneath, above, and prominent among which were small colored electric lights displayed with telling effect by the Colorado Electric Wiring Co. But that man in the moon with his big broad smile of welcome, joy, happy, gladsome expression of united mirth, can never be erased from your memory, as it shone with exquisite pleasure upon the hall so softly lighted. To these ecstasies add the beautiful strains of the lively, tuneful and excited "Nobody 'Round Here Loves Me." "Pretty Baby" and "Walkin' da Dog," now and then interspersed with the dreamy, swinging latest Spanish waltzes, "Dreamy Missouri Girl." "Might Like a Rose" and "Farewell to Thee," and you can have but a faint idea of the rare charm, so ideal, so rapturous, yet so full of imaginary actualities. The enchanted and captivating moonlight seance filled with thrills of joy and merriment, caused the audience to cry for more, more and more. Mr. Kelly, Morrison's trombone artist, played his new song entitled "The Largest Leaf I ever saw on a Limb," while the drums and violin looked on. To say the Paris de Ville club did grand is putting it mildly. All hats off to them. Fried fish was generously served. Ha! Ha! Ha!
Mrs. Nellie Irby of 29th St. who has just returned from a short visit to Mobile, New Orleans and Birmingham, Ala., on account of the serious illness of her father, has returned the picture of health.

Prominent Kansas Lawyer Wields Potent Influence.
BORN ON FARM IN TENNESSEE
Rise of an Ambitious Country Boy Who Worked His Way Through School and Achieved Success In the Legal Profession—Highly Esteemed by Both Races at Wichita, Kan.
Wichita, Kan.—One of the strongest advocates of equal justice to our people in this section of the country is Attorney E. P. Blakemore, who enjoys the confidence of the people of both races in Kansas. He has made a good record in his profession as well as along other lines which mean the uplift and progress of the race.
Attorney Blakemore was born in Crockett county, Tenn. His boyhood days were largely spent on the farm until his parents moved to Nashville, where he had the opportunity of attending the public schools.
His early impressions of manhood were received through the advice and instruction of President Braden while a student at Walden university, which was then known as the Central Tennessee college. He was an unusually bright student, and President Braden took great interest in him. After finishing the normal department at Walden he took up law in the same school, graduating with honors in 1903, and then started out to make his mark in his chosen profession. He was proud
A. S. B.
of the fact that he had worked his way through school. His father was a Methodist minister of very limited means. Young Blakemore started out in life without money, but with a few friends who knew him while a student in school, who gave him much encouragement. He did not remain in Nashville. He went to a strange city, among strangers, to start life. He began the practice of law at Indianapolis, Ind., after taking the examination and was admitted to the bar. He secured an office and hung out his shingle. Little by little he worked up a clientele. With his practice and practical knowledge of things, after two years he went to the Indian territory, locating at Okmulgee, which was the capital of the Creek nation. He remained there for six years, during which time the Indian territory was admitted into the Union as the state of Oklahoma.
Lawyer Blakemore was considered among the best practitioners in Oklahoma, saying nothing about race or color. He was persuaded by some of his friends to come to Wichita, Kan., one of the most progressive cities in the west. The people were calling for progressive men such as Lawyer Blakemore had become. His ability soon became known, and his services were sought by all classes of people. His clientele grew, as well as his popularity.
An unusual thing in the life of this young lawyer is his great courage under trying circumstances. He is one of the local attorneys for the street railway company of that city and also for the Arkansas Valley Interurban Railway company. He is the first member of his race to hold a position of this kind with the company, and he is making good. He is demonstrating the fact that it is not the color, but brain, that counts in the great battle of life, for, as he says, knowledge knows no color.
Among his personal friends is Mayor O. H. Bentley. To show the influence of the man, he secured thirty automobiles in Wichita, Sept. 27, and carried Bishop H. Blanton Parks and the entire Kansas African Methodist conference for a ride through the city and suburbs. Mr. Blakemore headed the line, and the next car carried Mayor Bentley, Commissioner Schell and Bishop and Mrs. Parks. In the next were the presiding elders and representative of the press, Charles Stewart, and in the other wars were ministers and their wives.
In August, 1911, Mr. Blakemore married Miss May June of Pine Bluff. Ark., who was a teacher in the branch Normal college and one of the best trained women in the city. They have a beautiful home in Wichita in one of the best sections of the city.

COLLEGE MEN DISCUSS THE SOUTHERN RACE QUESTION
University: Commission Asks For Lar
grate share of School Funds.
In its first open letter to college men of the south, issued early in 1916, the university commission urged them to unite their efforts with those of the press, the pulpit, the bar, the officers of the law and all other agencies laboring for the elimination of the monster evil of mob violence. These agencies have labored diligently and with substantial results, as it indicated by the decrease of the average annual number of lynchings from 171 for the decade 1889-95 to seventy for the decade 1909-15. Nevertheless the commission wishes to reiterate its appeal with renewed emphasis, knowing that the eradication of so virulent a social disease as the lynching mania can be effected only by the prolonged and vigorous efforts of sane and patriotic citizens.
In this letter the commission wishes to direct the attention of college men to the educational aspect of the race question, inasmuch as the solution of all human problems ultimately rests upon rightly directed education. In its last analysis education simply means bringing forth all the native capacities of the individual for the benefit both of himself and of society. It is axiomatic that a developed plant, animal or man is far more valuable to society than the undeveloped. It is likewise obvious that ignorance is the most fruitful source of human lills. Furthermore, it is as true in a social as in a physical sense that a chain is no stronger than its weakest link. The good results thus far obtained, as shown by the Negro's progress within recent years, prompt the commission to urge the extension of his educational opportunities.
The inadequate provision for the education of the Negro is more than an injustice to him; it is an injury to the white man. The south cannot realize its destiny if one-third of its population is undeveloped and inefficient. For our common welfare we must strive to cure disease wherever we find it, strengthen whatever is weak and develop all that is undeveloped. The initial steps for increasing the efficiency and usefulness of the Negro race must necessarily be taken in the schoolroom. There can be no denying that more and better schools with better trained and better paid teachers, more adequate supervision and longer terms are needed for the blacks as well as the whites. The Negro schools are, of course, parts of the school systems of their respective states and as such share in the progress and prosperity of their state systems.
Our appeal is for a larger share for the Negro on the ground of the common welfare and common justice. He is the weakest link in our civilization, and our welfare is indissolubly bound up with his. Many means are open to the college men of the south for arousing greater public interest in this matter and for promoting a more vigorous public effort to this end. A right attitude in this as in all other important public questions is a condition precedent to success. For this reason the commission addresses to southern college men this special appeal.

CHISUM IS VINDICATED.
Governor of Oklahoma Pardone Editor
Cenvipinted of Criminal Libal.
Oklahoma City, Okla.-Members of the National Negro Press association and friends of Melvin J. Chisum have been showering him recently with congratulations since it became known that the governor of Oklahoma has issued a pardon to Chisum. The pardon was recommended after a thorough investigation of the cases against him. In his findings Hon. J. M. Crook of the pardon board says: "Melvin J. Chisum was wrongfully convicted in the county court of Logan county and wrongfully charged with criminal libel, although he published articles in the newspaper he was conducting and editing in reference to Langston university.
"There were serious scandals in regard to the conduct of the students at said university. Chisum published the facts in reference to such conduct. The publication was strong, but no stronger than the facts justified. This department regrets to admit that upon investigation it found in each instance the facts to be exactly in accord with Chisum's charges.
"It is a fact that President Page was peremptory relieved of his position in the university ten days after the first statements of Chisum in his paper, and it may be that the exposure of the situation over there by Chisum led to such result. But it must be considered that in the exposure of such conditions deleterious to public health or moral safety the press is always and invariably a most potent weapon."
