To be or not to be---Men or Monkeys. Vote your Interest Tuesday and Make Friends. TWENTY-SEVENTH YEAR Number 160 FIRING THE Stand by your Guns. D To be or not to be---Men Interest Tuesday Not that any appreciable number of our people will vote the National Democratic Ticket, but for fear that even one would so far forget his manhood and his duty to those who are suffering with him as to cast a vote for Wilson, it is well to refer them to the record made in the past three and a half years by him and the party he represents. From an intelligent, business-like white man's point of view, the present administration is the worst in the history of this country. Roosevelt sums it up as follows; "Wishy washy." They had no definitely outlined policy when they took the reins of government, so could not be expected to evolve something out of nothing. They have floundered around, stealing the thunder of first one party and then another, and and trying to make capital of it until they have disgusted the smattering of intelligent voters in their ranks. This great railroad strike that was heralded to take place, rain or shine on Labor Day, was nothing more or less, in the minds of many people, than a big political move on the eve of election. That congress was bulldozed and rushed into making an eight-hour hastily is regrettable, as it gives to unions an impetus they otherwise would not have and a license to push their demands, right or wrong, to a favorable finale. Unions are all right in their place, but their place isn't running the government, and the chances are that the incoming Republicans will let them understand this in a forceful way. As American citizens, we are as much affected as any other class in the welfare of the country, but when on top of this we have added treatment that would not be accorded a dog, we have double the reason for using our power to overthrow such an administration. Wilson, a rank southerner at at heart, surrounded by such demons as Tillman, Blease, Hoke Smith, Vardaman and the like, has nothing good in store for any citizen with a dark skin, and in all fairness it can be said we have about as much use for him as we have for his satanic majesty. There has been absolutely no excuse, save downright prejudice and cussedness, for his contemptible treatment of the Colored people, since the first day he stepped into office he fostered segregation everywhere, the most harmful, however, being in the government departments at Washington, the very last place where restricting the rights of the most humble citizen should be tolerated. Granting that there was a slight excuse for casting a vote for Wilson some four years ago because of his promises, can a sane man today after a glance at his record, the blackest, as far as we are concerned, that any president of any political faith has made, cast a vote again for him? We think not; and some millions of other people think likewise, as the count Tuesday's election will show. Four years of misrule is quite enough at one sitting and it is four years more than the Democratic party should ever have been allowed the reins of government. Wilson's exact words to Negroes in his pre-election camp paign speech were, "if elected, I would do exact justice to the Negro without prejudice and unsparingly." Segregation and the rankest kind of discrimination were followed by a wholesale dismissal of nearly all Negro office-holders. Positions of honor heretofore capably filled by Negroes are now held by white men. Thousands of dollars in salaries due to dismissals and reduction in ranks of the Colored officials who were discriminated against by the Wilson regime because of their color are gone. Wilson not only broke every promise he made but he has added insult to injury. While the Wilson administration has practiced the segregation of Colored and whites, it took good pains to send poor Southern white men, as ministers resident to Haiti, a Negro republic and Hawaii besides attempting to send one to Liberia because of the fat salaries. This is segregating "unsparingly" with a vengeance. The South is governing the United States under the Wilson administration. President Wilson is southern, five members of his Cabinet are from the South, southern men are chairmen of seventeen out of eighteen great committees in the House of Representatives, including the Ways and Means Committee which formulated the Underwood low Tariff Law. With a population of one-fifth of the coun- DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, NOV. 4, 1916 LAST SHOT Day of Reckoning is Here. or Monkeys. Vote your and Make Friends. try's people and one-seventh of its wealth and less than one- fourth of its area, the South under the present Democratic administration, is master of the North, the East, the Middle West, and the far West. The Democratic party is a sec- tional party. He thinks as a Southerner, acts as a Southerner and the discussions of his attitude have brought out his backhanded treatment of the Negro in diplomacy. At the outset much was expected from him on account of his supposed temperament and environment. He was expected to be at least fair, but in no case has he measured up true to form. He stalked the Negro as the hunter would an animal, and sought every opportunity to destroy his rights. Wilson Dishonored Dead Heroes When the white marines were killed at Vera Cruz, the President went to Brooklyn to attend the funeral and spoke with utmost feeling of the flag of the country for which they had given their lives. But when the Colored troopers of the famous Teenth Cavalry, fighting against overwhelming edds, displaying heroism seldom equalled, died for the same flag and the same country at Carrizal, and their remains were brought to Washington for interment at Arlington, the President was conspicuous by his absence. He was asleep in the White House and did not desire to be disturbed. Self-respect needs cultivation and encouragement, not repression. The Wilson policy, wittingly or unwittingly, designedly or undesignedly—but we believe it to be wittingly and designedly—in its application to the Colored American has been aimed at the weakening and extinction of his self-respect. This then is the reason for the race's opposition to Woodrow Wilson. It is vital and deep-seated. Wilson Inspired Segregation Movement. While Woodrow Wilson was a candidate for the presidency he made promises to the Negro that were fairer than any ever given by a candidate for that high office. In his letters to Bishop Walters, he promised them civil rights and privileges such as they are guaranteed under the Constitution, but as soon as he was elected he repudiated every pledge he made them and submitted himself absolutely to to the counsel of the most vicious southern Negro baiters such as Tillman, Vardamann, Helfin and Hardwick, who have shaped his policy in dealing with the Negro race. Inspired by the example of President Wilson, in segregating the Negroes in the Government departments, Negro baiters throut the country were encouraged to undertake the segregation of the Negroes by restricting their property rights in the large cities. Baltimore, Louisville and St. Louis, in the order named, fell into line with President Wilson, in this most infamous of all forms of reprisal against the progress of the Negro race, by adopting segregation ordinances. In Baltimore and Louisville, the segregation ordinances were enacted by Democratic boards of alderman, In St. Louis, a Republican board of aldermen refused to enact the ordinance, which was carried later at a special election, only to be enjoined by a Republican federal judge. In Denver, a mixed Council of Democrats and Republicans under Mayor Speer apparently refused to introduce this "Jim Crow segregation bill" before our City Council, altho a strong Carlson Committeeman, Cohig was back of the bill. Colored men and women of Denver and America, we must arise! Those who vote and those entitled to vote must strike for their rights, justice and liberties. This is a campaign for the restoration of the rights, privileges and immunities that we have heretofore enjoyed under the Republican Administration of the National Government. Four years more of President Wilson will mean our complete elimination from American politics and civil rights. We submit that the man who is ready to die for his country at Carrizal, is fit to serve his country at Washington; and that the man who is fit to be buried in the National Cemetery at Arlington, is fit to serve his country in the Capitol of the Nation. Stand or Cringe. Resent or Swallow. Would you have a Serpent Sting You Twice in the Same Place? Miss Bessie Simpson of 22-37 Cleveland Place said that while working next door to them in the spring of 1915, with her own ears, she heard Gov. Carlson say to his wife and another friend who were in the back yard discussing Negro help, "that he (Carlson) had nothing for Negroes to do." Mr. Carlson's same idea is carried out when his Committeeeman Cohig, headed a delegation to the City Hall in an attempt to introduce that "Jim Crow Ordinance." Did he not say by his action in keeping one Negro democrat in office and appointing another half democrat, that as far as he was concerned "all Negroes looked alike to him, regardless as to his duty to his supporters? Pray, what kind of sentiment did he show toward our women and our race when he completely ignored them? If you forget all else you must remember that Gov. Carlson forgot his exalted position in this state and mixed up in our city fight taking sides with Nisbet who insulted, slurred and humiliated Negroes. Are Gov. Carlson and his supporters really back of this residential discrimination? Did he and his political wiseacres inaugurate this vicious beer amendment so that the Governor could be a hero for prohibition? Was this liberal party headed by one of his employees a political trap to catch the unsuspecting voter who favored temperance? Negroes, do you approve of all these things? Our messenger leaders declare an unalterable determination to pursue along certain lines of submissive conduct which has produced eminent peril to the race and which now invites segregation and threaten us with ruin at our very door. Has a grin, a submissive policy or complete surrender ever planted and nurtured a manly thought in anyone, or won any principle upon which real men and women stand? Nisbet insulted you and you resented it; Gov. Carlson has neglected and ignored you and your women. Will you stand humiliated, disgraced and thus destroy your race rather than lose favor with a few republicans hungry for an office? Resent or swallow, stand or cringe and bend your knees low. Will some of our women argue, excuse or explain the wrongs, neglect and insults to the race and to them for the men who did it? If the Star in fighting for the race is and was right when it fought Nisbet, certainly it is still right when it opposes the Governor who upheld and aided Neasbit. FIVE CENTS A COPY. TWO VIEWS ON EDUCATION It is evident that Republicans and Democrats have widely divergent views on the subject of education. This is what Charles Evans Hughes, Republican candidate for president, has to say about the matter: "No possible concept for the advancement of the colored man excludes education. His hope lies not only in the education of himself, but of the race with which he is thrown in contact. Culture is supposed to be a foil for prejudice—a crucible wherein the dogmas of contra racial aversions may be tempered with cause and effect and from which justice man to man may emerge. Education should produce fairness, frankness, a basis upon which races and men may meet with common understanding." Senator Ben Tillman of South Carolina, a leading Southern Democrat holds a very different opinion, as will be seen from the following excerpt from one of his speech es: "Educate niggers?" repeated the senator, and then he laughed. "Say there is only one nigger in 100 that can stand an education. The first thing that an educated nigger wants to do is to preach the Gospel. If not that he wants to practice law or teach school Somebody has got to pound it into their heads that they were put on earth to pick cotton, and that's what they'll have to do in the South, You certainly have made a mess of the nigger in the North. It's mighty seldom that a nigger becomes educated. He gets a sort of veneering and wants to associate with white people and when he learns that he can't he drops the veneering and becomes just a plain nigger. A nigger is a nigger, and you can't make anything else out of him. It will come mighty near being war if the fifteenth amendment is not repealed." The women who vote for Gov. Carlson do it knowing they are fighting men and women of their own color who are trying to win respect and confidence of their tellows. Accept no excuse they are against you and the race and you cannot get around it. It is now up to you. Let every Negro do his full duty at the polls. Vote for Gunter, otherwise you swallow your women's insults, pocket your self respect, play the coward and quitter and rock the boat of friendship and opportunity. Having been given the ballot for us to make friends, do we have to depend upon democrats or republicans to make our friends? This Is Our Fight And Let Us Make It. Gov. Carlson has never denied he appointed a messenger and then "Jim Crowed" him. Vote Gunter or leave blank. Church News BETHLEHEM BAPTIST CHURCH. 3148 Lafayette. Phone Y 7647. REV. A. L.

O., member of Council College of Organists, member of Council & Examiner, N. S. P. M., in speaking of this musical satellite of the first degree, says: "Indeed I consider Dr. Gower one of the very best organists of the day." It is worthy of note that Dr. Gower has given over 100 organ and piano recitals in Denver, which have been attended in the aggregate by 150,000 people, whilst hundreds of people have been unable to gain admission thereto.

Remember that the charges made by the Star against Mr. Carlson Jim Crowing at the Capitol, about our women and about his appointments, have never been denied by him by letter, speech or otherwise, and they therefore stand as admitted and you, my fellow citizens, should find him guilty Nov. 7 by voting against him or not voting for the governorship at all. Better vote against him; it means more to the race. Better go down in defeat protesting than to win by humiliation in order to save two messengerships. With your U-vote torpedo Wilson, send him into political oblivion. He has deceived us and added insult to injury. Wilson is worse than Ben Tillman, who openly wronged the Negro, openly confessed it and then openly admitted that his course of action was wrong. Vote against all the amendments except the insane amendment, No. 4. Vote yes. Captain Silas H. Johnson died at his home, 1721 Marlon 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, Mo., 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. FRENCH SUPERVISOR Mrs. Lottie Cowell. He was a loyal and devoted member of 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 twenty 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 companies would vie with each other in honoring him. He was turnkey at the county jail in St. Louis county at Clayton, Missouri, and he served the office well and reflected much credit on himself as well as his superior officers, but the trip that deeply impressed him and which was filled with sweet memories of former friends and eventful activities, social and fraternal, was his trip to attend the Odd Fellows' Grand Lodge in 1915. In Oakland, California, at the home of Sam Cook, seventeen Odd Fellows, with the "Denver colony," celebrated their arrival, with Captain Johnson as the chief spokesman. It was always a source of pleasure for him to remember his friends and the attention shown him at San Francisco, Los Angeles and San Diego. 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 occurred 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 friends, respected and esteemed by his acquaintances, distinguished 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. A FRIEND IN NEED IS A FRIEND INDEED. VOTE FOR ALL OF THE STAR'S FRIENDS. SHALL JIM CROWISM SPREAD TO COLORADO?

Likewise, could he not have Jim Crowed the colored clerks? Simply because a man is a Republican doesn't always mean that he is a colored man's friend or without prejudice. In conclusion, we will offer further proof that it is the individual and not the party who is friendly or otherwise to us, and we will mention a few of our most prominent Democratic statesmen. Thomas Jefferson, "the father of Democracy," regarded slavery as a moral and political evil and set the example by liberating all slaves held by him. Such men as Andrew Jackson, Ben F. Butler, the late Hon. Lyman Turnbull, an Illinois Democratic Chairman of the Judiciary Committee of the U. S. Senate, drew the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments to the Constitution, and was supported by Sumner, Wilson, Wade and Harlan in his fight on the floor to enforce those measures. (Brockett's History of Great Men, page 423) So the Negroes' freedom, God's best gift to man, came from the mind and pen of a Democratic benefactor. Edw. M. Stanton, Secretary of War in President Lincoln's Cabinet, also a Democratic benefactor, directed the union military organization in its protection of the emancipated slaves. (Brockett's History, pages 202 and 288.) Solomon P. Chase, Secretary of the Treasury in President Lincoln's Cabinet, a democrat, advised the use of Negro troops. (Brockett's History of Great Men, page 180.) President Grant, in a special message to congress, said: "The 15th Amendment, which makes four million of people voters, is of grander importance than any other one act of the kind from the foundation of our free government." The attempt to put the colored Knights of Pythias out of business in the South (and if successful, in time would have affected all colored organizations in the United States alike) was a bold plot to retard the great progress of the race. The judgment of the Supreme Court of Georgia was reversed and the cause remanded for further proceedings. This was done by Chief Justice White of Louisiana, a Democrat. Thus you see we have had many good and true friends who were Democrats. Speaking in the present tense, we still have many good and true friends who are Democrats; one of them, the Hon. Julius C. Gunter, Democratic candidate for Governor of Colorado.

Heckendorf NILE JUDGE The time is now ripe for us to show our resentment of the vast and many insults that have been forced upon us by the P. P. P. (PEACE AT ANY PRICE PROFESSOR) in Washington, D. C. There are many well known reasons why DARK AMERICA should support and bend every effort to get all the support possible for Mr. Hughes and Mr. Fairbanks, for President and Vice-President, respectively, of the United States, and that it is quite unnecessary for us to use the space to go over it again. Now, if we are going to outlaw one man for Jim Crowing and ignoring us in Washington, why shouldn't we outlaw the man who Jim Crowed and ignored us in Colorado, where we are directly affected? Mr. Carlson is of the same lik as Mr. Wilson and both would have been first class Simon Legrrees, back in the early 60's, as was definitely proven by Mr. Carlson's utter disregard for our women and the Jim Crowing of the colored employees of the state. We cannot swallow his insults, even though he is a Republican, any more than we can Blease, Vardaman or Tillman's. An insult is an insult, be it Republican or Democrat. Then again, where we are most directly affected by legislation, we should support the MAN with the PRINCIPLE, not the principle alone, for without the man the principle is lost; all principle and no man to enforce it is as bad as no principle and no man. Stop and figure a moment. Have not the State Democrats always done more and taken us more seriously than the Republicans? Think a bit and you can only give one answer: YES. Likewise, have they not done more in the city and county for us than the Republicans? We have twice as many colored city employees as we had a year ago, and it was all thru the efforts of the Hon. Robt. W. Speer, a staunch Democrat. If we do not support the people who show their appreciation of us in that way, we are as bad as the Jim Crow agitators ourselves. Now, as to the segregation bill that has bobbed up here. It is sure to come again, so let us strengthen our side by voting for MEN whose thoughts and ideas jibe with the city administration, who have proven to be friendly to us. You must realize that if a bill of that character was to get as far as the Governor's office and Mr. Carlson was presiding there, 'tis certain that he will (as has been proven by his past activities) coincide with the bill. Now, let us not let a few dollars or a promise of a job or two interfere with the interest of our home. Why, one of the strongest Democratic office holders did more for us when we really needed help than the Republicans. For instance, a few years ago a white woman was found murdered in the North Side bottom, and a colored man was arrested for the crime and taken before Chief of Police Armstrong (a Democrat). And the Denver Post (the paper with a heart and soul?) came out in fragrant head lines and sald Denver needed an old time Southern lynching. And Chief Hamilton Armstrong's reply to the Post was for them to send the whole Post staff and all its hirelings down there and that he would cause a trail of blood to be left from the City Hall to the Post building. Afterwards the woman's husband was convicted of the crime. In direct contrast, we have the stand taken by Mr. Alexander Nesbit, a Republican, in our fight against the Birth of a Nation, and also the small amount of protection he gave Dr. McClain when he was having trouble over his residence in East Denver.

The Utica Normal and Industrial school at Utica, Miss., begins its 1916-17 school year with a large enrollment. Principal William H. Holtzclaw has been busily engaged the past summer in an effort to raise funds with which to install a larger and better plant for heating and lighting purposes. He has been quite successful in personally raising much of the amount necessary to cover the cost of the new equipment. Mr. Holtzclaw is doing a splendid work of education among the colored people of the section in which the institution is located. About $2,500 will enable the principal to complete payment on the heating plant. The school appeals to the friends of education who are able to contribute the amount needed for the above purpose so that the principal may be relieved of some of the financial burden and thus devote more of his time to other matters of school management. Baptists to Found School of Theology At the recent annual meeting of the national Baptist convention, held in Kansas City, Mo., it was decided to formulate plans for the establishment of a theological college for the education and training of young men and women for the ministry, home and for elegn mission work.

More than $50,000 is available in subscriptions and cash with which to further the movement as soon as the plans are completed and a desirable site is located. RID YOUR CHILD OF WORMS.

As a people we are facing a serious political crisis in Colorado and it is time for us to be alert to resist injury and to grasp advantages. Our civil and legal rights are being menaced, contrary to the fundamental laws of the na- tion. A new slavery has arisen in the West—with the entering wedge in Colorado—in the form of segregation which is almost as vicious as the old slavery. If it were wrong to seize and take property without due process of law and destroy your happiness and liberty in the days of old, it is wrong now. If it were true in those days that all men were born free and equal in the essential human attributes and possibilities, it is true now. Class, race, and color caste and distinctions are just as invidious and unjust now as they were then when America struck for her freedom. Tyranny has not lost one fota of its hatefulness and men today will still sacrifice their honor, lives, property, their all, that the cause of liberty and absolute equality might live and that their children might be free, whether the conditions are caused by a Republican autocrat or a Democratic demagogue. We have fought and must fight against proposed laws and official rulings and orders which discriminate against us because of our race and color. We are fighting to overcome that sentiment which apologizes for or justifies such laws and orders. We ought to be able to count upon every Negro in Colorado for our support. We are in the midst of a perilous crisis and we need friends. We will not shirk, shun nor dodge duty, as we have, years ago, come to our manhood as a people. Hereafter, let it always be understood, as in the case of other races, that the Negro will only vote for any party so long as that party puts up fit candidates. We will not vote for any man who jus- tifles, apologizes or attempts to enforce Southern discrimination. Our Balee was given us as a weapon of our protection. The world respects men who know their rights, fight for them and cannot be imposed upon with impunity. He who scrapes knee, bends and grins will ever be that kind of a lacky. We must have our rights before we can, as citizens, do our fully duty. In Amer- ica self respect is sustained by being kept on a plane, civil and political, with all other citizens. All kinds of discriminative laws are bad, whether disfran- chisement, Jim Crow cars, Jim Crow schools, or Jim Crow residential dis- tricts. They are pernicious in principle, mischievious in operation and not a praiseworthy object in any section of them. Honest and fair men should condemn them without mercy or quibble. To make and perpetuate a preju- dice as legal, or to make stealing legal, does not make either moral, and true men will see with unprejudiced eyes. We are against any administration that encourages or gives influence to sycophancy and attempts to crush out ambition and self-assertion. We must understand now, as on next Tuesday, that no alliance be made in this campaign save the alliance of freedom, equal- ity and true friendship in time of need, and no peace which does not rest upon the safe and permanent basis of executing justice between man and man, We want all that belongs to a full fledged American citizen, no more nor less. We are in earnest. We cannot be cajoled nor bulldozed. We can- not be bought off and under God we will be heard next Tuesday at the polls when we vote Hughes, Vaile and Gunter. The colored man is an unhyphenated American, a loyal, law-abiding and industrious citizen of the U. S., and as such is greatly interested in the wel- fare of this government and its citizens. His blood has been shed for this country in every war in which she has ever been engaged, even including the late “unpleasantness” with Mexico at Carrizal. As a true and devoted Amer- ican citizen, he is earnestly concerned in the continued security of this Amer- ican nation. For that reason is it mainly that he has heard that cry of Margaret A. Benton, correspondent of the Post, who was ravished, mistreated and who later escaped after being taken captive by Carranzistas. She makes this final appeal to American men: “No white-skinned American woman in Mexico knows when the evil eye of someone in power in the territory dom- inated by Carranza will fall on her.” A nation might be excused for not pro- tecting its men who are in foreign lands; but even the savage protects his women wherever they are. America, under Wilson, protects neither. “Now go with me to the Southland, hear the shrieks of the women prepared for a burning or lynching. Under both the Democratic and Republican presidents and Democratic governors, these heinous offenses have been perpetrated in America. Rapes upon bodies of Negro women and girls go unpunished. If Negro men resent it, they are killed. Yet such a death is sweet to them as the price to protect their womanhood. Look upon the statute books and you will find miscegenation laws which are put there to preserve race purity in the South by establishing double moral and legal standards, and you can ob- serve how white men can and do live in concubinage with colored women there, having children by them with impunity; that they live in lawful union with white women in their world and in unlawful union with black women in their world at the same time, producing in consequence a vast number of mixed bloods every year. You and I know that if Negro women had the same legal redress against white men which white women possess, by action for seduction and bastardy process, and that if these white culprits could be forced legally to support their Colored children, could be brought to book by the criminal law for adultery and fornication with colored women, there would be vastly less intermixture of the races in the South than is going on there at present under Mr. Wilson's regime, and that the South is opposed not to illicit intercourse between the races, but only to legal sexual relations between them. Knowing how our women have been butchered up, our young and innocent girls spoiled with impunity, this plea of this unfortunate white woman who has suffered what thousands of our women and girls have suf- fered without protest of the American Christian civilization, bestirs your souls, arouses your manhood, kindles the flame of American patriotism to protect American women pleading for protection of their honor, no matter of what color, even if the Mexicans might have been paying America in her own coin. In defense of American womanhood, did not the American Negro soldiers die at Carrizal and many more soldiers and citizeris of color are now ready and willing to show the world, America and President Wilson that Negro men will die to defend, protect and preserve virtue, whether found in a white, brown or a black woman. Has President Wilson's conscience and Southern chivalry become so scarred and seared with Negro rapings, burn- ings, and lynchings that he {s just as unwilling to defend the women of his own race and protect American property on land and on sea? The three past Democratic administrations gave the Negro voters more just recognition for the proportion of votes received from the Negroes than the Republican party had given during the entire history of the party in the State. Up to eight years ago there were elght janitors and one lady clerk employed in the State House. Gov. Shafroth retained the eight janitors and added a messenger to his office; the Secretary of State placed a colored mes- senger in his office instead of a lady clerk; the Auditor placed Father Bruce in his office as file clerk; and Gov. Shafroth placed a watchman in the min-| y eral department, whom the Republicans removed as soon as they took office] 5 and filled the position with a white man. t The most important assistance given the Negro in this State was in the| r establishing of the settlement of Dearfield, where sixty Negro families have| established their homes upon twenty thousand acres of good fertile Govern-| i ment land and are building a municipal government of their own. ce The Democratic administration has made it possible for us to have a|¢ school with a colored girl graduate of the Colorado schools for a teacher, at a salary of $50.00 per month for nine months of the year.

Negroes, he is our friend, has shown it, and now let us stand by him. God knows we need friends, ‘The Star opposed Mrs. Mary C. Bradford last election because we thought and were informed that she favored separate schools. When in office, Mrs. Mary C. Bradford and her efficient corps of assistants were responsible, mak. ing it possible for Miss Katie White, one of Colorado's representative young lady graduates of Bast Denver High school, to teach in our mixed schools in this state. Miss White is teaching today and will be when you cast your vote. ‘The Star therefore asks for Mrs, Bradford your support. Don't we as a race owe her something? On the other hand, what has Miss Helen Wixson ever done for our ambitious colored teachers, outside of flattering them? Facts are facts. What has she done? Remember, we work for as many Democratic friends as we do Republicans on the hill and we see no difference in thelr treatment. Why not help the fellow that helps you, help the race and thus fight our own battle and solve our own problem? Put your friends into office. Remember you are fighting the proposed segregation law which will be initiated after Nov, 7, now. Be sure you vote so as to make friends for Negroes. Let all else go. Kill segregation at all cost. Neither the Republicans nor Democrats can do it alone, so let us join and have them do it jointly. We must have a friend at court. Proper in- fluence, wisely and effectively used, can do more than conferences, mass meet- ings and political posts. Let us be sensible and fight our own battle. We need more friends after election, when we fight segregation, than we need officials. Better face shot and shell in battle than be a groveling, sneaking coward outside of the ranks. Party platforms don’t relieve grievances; it takes true and honest men oft-times bigger than the platforms. Understand, the Star is not fighting the Republican party as a party, but we are fighting certain Republican individuals who are fighting and have fought our race, For the Presidential Electors: Charles Boettcher, David R.

Starkweather and John Red Williams; Representatives, Baer, Maloney, Crow. ley, Linton, Yeager, Anderson, Ferguson, Garrett, Rhoads, Meyer, Willison and Proske. Mr. Walter C. Heckendorf is a young, ambitious lawyer with honors from his many scholastic activities. He is well qualified for the position of Juve- nile Judge. He promises to stay in Denver and look after business. We be- lieve in giving the young men a chance. He will make good, so we are ask- ing your support. It is up to us to build the hope and aspiration of those who struggle under the anarchy of hate, race prejudice and discrimination, and of those who are capable of grasping opportunities for themselves and the future gen- erations. Fearing that the Republican party, as a party, cannot prevent such hostile legislation, hostile race decisions and unjust official orders from our Republican Governor, as came from Commissioner of Safety Nesbit, whom we|: supported, and Judge Butler, who permitted the Birth of a Nation to show— || all of which was hostile and inimical to the Negroes’ interest, and that caste|| bill would be introduced (anti-tipping bill by Harris) and passed by our next |! assembly, therefore as a precautionary measure, the Star has taken it upon|‘ itself to try and help them look after the Negroes’ interest when it comes to|! the matter of segregation. We hope to save them some embarrassment. For | that reason only have we tried to win friends and helpers to ald us when we need them. We expect every Necro to join in with the Star and support our| , worthy object. 5 fs SHALL SACRED COLORADO'S SOIL HAVE JIM CROWISM? If what Migs Bessie Simpson. a respectable member of Shorter A. M. E church, said about what she had heard while working next door to the Gov. ernor, concerning his feeling toward colored people, is true; if what Mrs. Isn- bella Stewart said about Mr. Cohig of Ogden 8t. precinct, chairman of the Carlson forces, being one of the prominent leaders in the Jim Crow move- ment at the City Hall, dividing us in black and white blacks, is true; if it ts true that Gov. Carlson approves of his supporters’ action against Negroes; does it not then follow as a reason, since none of these charges have been denied by anyone, that a Negro Democrat is the same to him as a Negro Re- publican, regardless as to whether the Negro Republican helped him in office or not? Believing then that the Governor has race feeling, is it any wonder that he ignored our women all thru the state? There is only one question in jour state campaign for Negroms to weriously consider, and that is whether the sacred soll of Colorado shall be polluted with Jim Crowism, created and perpetuated by law? Tuesday you must answer this question with your votes, remembering that everybody elected to office {s a white person and that it is up to you to pick your white friend who is friendly disposed to the race. Only aid those who can and will aid you when you need them next spring. This is our fight, a fight to put in power our friends and at the same time Wwe must fight our own battles. No matter how fiendish, whether man or woman or child is burned, lynched or mutilated, where is there one protesting voice, in pulpit, in press, upon public rostrum or in their secret fraternal meetings? Not one will come to our aid or rescue. We think in the words of Shylock: “A thief gone with so much and so much to find the thief, and no satisfaction, no re- venge, nor no ill luck stirring but what lights upon our shoulders; no sighs but of our breathing, no tears but of our shedding.” You see this is our fight for respect and to live decently and unmolested. —_-e_—_—————havertiosment, Mulnix Figure Wizard Candidate for State Treasurer Calls’ Numerals by First Name and Makes ’Em Stand in I ina “If your Harry BE. 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 im ft he sized up Harry Mulnix's capabilities better than they could be written im a serial story. | mt a”) | ; rs | he Nit ] } bo } | . | a “then, cyilnix is reckoned @ veritable wizard at figures. He has lived With them all his Iife—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 eee names, and he can line them up and make them perform, but always cor- Tectly. 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 fig. ures of state—salaries, appropriations, receipts of departments, disbursements, cash on hand, surplus—everything. And often is he suddenly called upon to sive out information, doing so with accuracy and without consulting books. When he was born in Pennsylvania that state probably didn't realize that {t was giving to Colorado one who would know more about arithmetic and higher mathematics than the men who invented those Pleaking pastimes. It Was thirty-eight years ago that he came here, engaging in. the contracting business, only to have his abiiity recognized with the position of state treas- urer in 1894.’ It is a rather singular coincidence that after twenty-two years he should be the unanimous choles of the Republican assemibly 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 @ handshaking acquaintance with thov- sands. He knows every phase of state government, his office force fs a per: fectly balanced, polite and effictemt organization, and his own absolute relin- bitty is gmbodled in the word Which often goes through the state house! “Ask Mulnix; he knows.” i. 5s (Advertisement) STICK TO YOUR FRIENDS CLOSELY. HELPED RACE. Dearfield, Masters P. O., Colo, November 1, 1916. Dear Friends: I did not intend to take an active interest in any individual candidate in this campaign. My intention was to work in the interest of the entire Demo- cratic ticket, since such a splendid set of candidates, all of whom are person- ally known to me, has been nominated. But Mr. Leslie E. Hubbard, who is @ candidate for Attorney General, nas proved himself to be such a good friend. of our people that I did not feel that I would be doing justice te our race Jf I did not give his candidacy my personal attention in return for the many favors he has rendered myself and people while I was messenger to the Sar: ernor, There was never a time that I have called upon Mr. Hubbard for dd- vice or assistance for the settlers of Dearfield but that he has always in the most willing and cheerful manner rendered us valuable assistance, ‘The office of Attorney General of this State is second only to the Supreme Court of the State, and he is the Governor's chief advisor on all matters per- taining to the administration. The Attorney General fs the first to pass upon the constitutionality of all laws passed by the legislature. We should be in- terested in the person who is a candidate for the important office of Attorney General and yote for the man whom we know is our friend and will not en- courage segregated legislation.

He is a graduate of Yale University and of the University of Denver and has practiced law for fifteen years.

He declared that he would protect them in évery right guaranteed them by the Constitution. "Many. of the colored people, led by ‘some of the brightest thinkers In tho race, accepted his pronunciamento for its face.value. He was a man of edu. cation and It was presupposed that he wax removed from the petty preju- dicen of the dull and the ignorant. They had reason to believe that his pre-election word would yteld 100 per cent in redemption after his election. ‘Candidate Wilson's word {s still out and has gone to protest in President ‘Wilnon’s clearing house. Contrary to his promise to deal out to the colored man a fair hand of equal justice, he haw succeeded in three years in de- stroying what it has taken the Re- publican party fifty years to construct in the way of clvit rights for colored citizens. ® FOR REGENTS OF THE UNIVER; Sry OF COLORADO oye (eta for Twe)_cSiamis [rnowas © BARNARD — een ee || foRACE m mAniAna — penne | eel | a cl lamwa woucort van | Rpm!

He swept the platter clean of the colored man’s connection with public service or responsibility, thus flying in the face of the record of his own party when President Cleveland con- sistently adhered to the custom of reu- dering unto Caesar the things that were Caesar’s—positions that the Re- publicans had accredited and deliv ered to the colored race for thirty years. And again we say to the colored voters thruout all the civilized states that the coming election means more to us as a people than any in the past thirty years. It is not a question of the Democratic party going into power with a Grover Cleveland in office; it is a question of the Democratic party going into power with a man in office who not only does not stand with the Uberal Democrats of the North, nor even with the broader minded Demo- crats of the South, but who fs one in sentiment and practice with the Hoke Smiths, the Vardamans, the Tillmans and the Cole Bleases, the men who openly declare that the Negro should have no part or participation in the government, It rests then upon the colored vot- ers in all these states where their votes will be counted and count for something, to do all within their pow- er to help defeat Woodrow Wilson. The Colored Citizens’ Gunter State Club, with headquarters in the Elks’ Hall, 2540 Washington, have held sev- eral rousing meetings and will have a number of Denver's best political workers in the field on election day, as well as those who are at present giving gratis service toward the elcc- tion of the state and county tickets. While this organization repudiated Mr, Wilson's reelection to the presi- dency, they felt it unnecessary to agi- tate against him, knowing the fact that the colored citisena of America have been solidly opposed to him.

WIN Raat eee anges ee area: Saturday afternoon the champion- ship croquet tournament was con- tinued. The contestants were Sims and Bell vs. King and Lightner. The games were exciting from beginning to end. Sims and Bell started in a mighty flash and in the early stage of the first game were confident that they would lead their opponents back to the home stake. But before the game bad far advanced the clever gen- eralship and accurate shooting of King and Lightner showed that their opponents were outclassed and had not even the slightest chance to win. Lightner did much sacrificing during the first part of the game in order to give his partner, King, a long lead. Taking the advantage of every oppor- tunity, King soon became rover. ‘Then it was about all over for that game. as Lightner in his next turn of play came from the lower stake to the home stake and there fell down on an easy shot, but in his next turn put his partner out and went out himeelt. To tell of the second game would be to repeat the description of the first. Sims and Bell can be congratu- lated for their gameness, but at the close of two consecutive games, hay- ing been defeated in both, they were compelled to acknowledge that they had met their masters. Sims, stung by the defeat in the doubles, challenged Lightner “best two of three” in singles. The chal- lenge was accepted and the game was ‘on, which lasted about fifteen minutes and resulted in a “whitewash” for Sims. As this first game was nearing the end, one Lawyer Ross appeared on the scene and asked for the win- ner, only to suffer the like fate of his predecessor, Sims, hungering for just one game, with the shades of night falling fast, started the second game with a dogged determination to win. ‘But, as in the first, met lis Water- Joo” by the accurate and timely drives of his opponent. And thus ended a pleasant hour of sport If you swallow the Republican ticket whole, you will swallow Robert Har- ris, who has twice introduced the antt- tipping bill against all people who re- ceive tips, especially Negroes. Don't vote for Robert Harris, the Republican Representative. Pass the word on. Think of such sentiment coming from a young educated girl of this twentieth century. The worst kind of a Republican on the Republican ticket is better to me than the best kind of a Democrat on the Democratic ticket.” That is to say that Nisbet, as bad as he was, and tho a Republican, is far More preferable to this colored wom an than Chief Armstrong, who we all know, tho he is a Democrat, or thar Wm. Booth, a weak candidate on the Republican ticket, is better to her than Mayor Speer, a Democrat, who has done so much for the city and is known ali over the United States. That's bad logic and miserable reas- oning. . Vote the Star’s ticket; take it in booth with you.
