The Denver Star ESTABLISHED 1888 The papers formerly known as The Statesman and The independent, have been merged into The Denver Star TWENTY-NINTH YEAR Number 5 DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, SEPT. 1 1917 FIVE CENTS A COP NEGRO SOLDIERS AND DEMOCRACY HOUSTON AFFAIR ONE OF MANY-KELLY MILLER QUOTED "We hold these truths to be self-evident:—That all men are created equal that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed." The hungry longing of the hnman race for freedom, had never before found utterance in such terms. The down-trod den, the vanquished, these had vaguely wondered, concerning the cause of their situation, resentment of their condition had, very often, in the world's history, led to outbreak and violence and blood-shed, but, generally, the wars which had been waged by the victims of oppression and tyranny, had been waged in behalf of a change of masters, rather than to abolish and do away with arrogant power. But a declaration, still more astounding is contained in the few lines which I have repeated; this is that governments derive "their just powers from the content of the governed." This thought, more than all the others, contains the germ of that truth which mankind has since been struggling to enforce in the world. The Negro feels that he is not regarded as a constituent part of American democracy. This is our fundamental grevance and lies at the basis of all of the outrages inflicted upon this helpless race. It is the fundamental creed of democracy that no people are good enough to govern any other people without their consent and participation. The English are not good enough to govern the Irish, nor the Russians the Finns, nor the Germans the Belgians nor the Belgians to even govern the people of the Congo without their consent. Men are not good enough to govern women without their consent just as the white race, or the black or the red or the brown people are each respectively not good enough to govern the other without that other's consent. And just as long as the black man or any man of any race is excluded from participation in the government of the city, state and nation just so long will he be the victim of cruelty and outrage on the part of his dominant white fellow citizens who assume lordship over him. Preiodic outbreaks of lawlessness are but the natural outgrowth of the disfavor and despite in which the race is held by public opinion. The evil is so wide spread that the remedy lies in the hands of the national government headed by our president who has recently declared in his message to the Pope on peace which to be permanently established must be based upon justice' and fairness and the common rights of mankind. Pray what kind of an American democracy, justice and fairness is that? A democracy which cannot protect its citizens in the U. S. especially its soldiers fighting to uphold and sustain that government, has no business to go outside of the U. S to maintain that which is not at home. Such a democracy is a failure and should be cast aside. A democracy which supports the doctrine of "Lynch the Nigger", Jim Crow' the Citizen humiliate the honest laborer is a democracy doomed to failure. Why send Negro regulars and drafted men to democratize the nations of the earth if that democracy leads them to delight in the burning of human beings after the manner of Springfield, Wa co, Memphis and East St. Louis and to experience the denial of citizens' rights such as is practiced in the Southern States while our democratic nation looks helplessly on? America adds nothing to the culture and civilization of the world by such a democrocy. When the Turk practiced barbarity and outrages upon the Armenian, the German upon the Belgian and the Russian upon the Jew, American voices went up in one frantic protesting wail, because these outbreaks seemed not have been the spontaneous ebullitions of popular feeling but with apparent governmental sanction and approval. The nation or state must be responsible for what its citizens permit either thru omission or commission. And Texas is therefore responsible for what has happened in Houston. These same outbreaks will happen anywhere as already lynchings have happened since the East St. Louis affair, in Georgia, Louisiana, Pennsylvania and Montana. Speaking of the recent soldier citizen occurrence in Houston, Tex. between Negro soldiers and White citizens the Star makes the following observation. In the first place these en counters and clashes between soldiers and citizens are where seem to inevitably follow where the soldiers gather in war times obsessed with national importance. These outbreaks are not limited to Southern States, they have occured in Illi- DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, SEPT. 1 1917 nois, Kansas, Delaware, Ohio Indiana, Colorado, Washing ton and other Northern States. But in Texas where a democracy exists that is so weak and futile that it cannot prevent burnings, lynchings and wrongdoing against its weaker citizen, the Negro; where the white primary exists and sever prominent cities in the state have enjoyed the Southern as al time, how could you expect this same Texas or American democracy to protect, defend or even give Justice to black soldiers, guilty or innocent, when accused of violating the Southern policies by refusing to be jim-crowed, insulted and called "Nigger Soldiers"? Numerous complaints had been made to the U.S. officers by the men; they seemed powerless to stop the injustices, even though Southern policies, so the men when egged on, harrassed and forced to abandon all hope of justice from the government whose uniform they were wearing, set about to protect themselves. The Morning News of Saturday seemed to think that tose S. troops anywhere in the U.S. "betrayed ignorance or indifference to local sentiment" on the part of those responsible for troop movements. Why should the United States cater to the South when the Negro is concerned and not cater to settlements pro-German which oppose the "draft" measures? America has given the rallying cry for the present world crisis, but this shibboleth will be robbed of instant meaning and power, unless it applies to the helpless within our gates. If the sons and grandsons of the heroes who battered down the walls of slavery a half century ago could be made to feel with unreserved certainty a renewal of the moral energy which urged their fathers to that high resolve, they would, with heightened enthusiasm for humanity, demolish Teutonic bulwarks of oppression across the seas. The Twenty-fourth Infantry was there on the border for that purpose. Doctrine is more than deeds, if it be sound doctrine. Deeds are the outgrowth of doctrine. Doctrine lives forever with persistent potentiality. Doctrine rules the world or throws it into confusion. The power of words is far greater than the meaning of the author. It makes no difference what lay in the minds or practice of the statesmen of Greece. They planted the seeds of democracy and all mankind will become the beneficiary of the sowing. The intendment of the signers of the Declaration of Independence boasts but little. That document will stand for all time as the gospel of human liberty When America speaks of the democratization of the world and the liberation of mankind, she is setting up a standard to which the whole world must rise in the ages to come, despite its attitude at the present time. It may pe far from the purpose of our present day statesmen, newspapers and public officials to admit the Negro into this democracy on terms of equality with the rest. But in spite of the purpose of this statesmanship, this must be the ultimate good of human democracy. A democracy of race or class is no democracy at all. It is with projected imagination that the Negro will endure until these high-sounding phrases have borne their full fruition. Any other class of the American people under the strain and distress to which the Negro has been subjected would imitate Job's distracted wife and curse the white God and die. The Negro will neither curse nor die, but grin and live—albeit beneath that grin is a groaning of spirit too deep for utterance. The Negro of this country says to its country as did the boys of the Twenty-fourth Infantry in Texas "Tho you slay me, I will serve you". With such a fine spirit and demonstration of true loyalty and without having their side of the affair heralded to the public and to the world and with only one side of the painted picture viewed, the Star says to all, "Suspend judgment on our brave black boys, at least, until there can come thru an unprejudiced source their side with explanations and defense. Give Us Colored Commander for Colored Troops. Twelve million Colored Americans, loyal and true, den and that this valiant and tried soldier be given the opportunity to lead our men to which his services and proven agility entitle him. The Monitor urges the race to make a united appeal to President Wilson that opportunity be given Colonel Young to serve our country to the limit of his strength. We believe that such an appeal will not be in vain. Colonel Young believes himself to be physically fit to leab troops. He expresses his determination to do all in his power to keep himself physically fit and mentally alert to serve his country when his country shall need him. President Wilson, Commander in Chief of the Army, twelve million Colored Americans respectfully petition you Sir, to give our race a General in the person of Charles Young and to give him command of colored troops, and we pledge you our honor that our country will thrill with pride at the valor of the troops under his command. Give us a Colored Commander for Colored troops. Our loyalty merit this recognition So saves the Denver Star. Let every Negro paper copy. His country needs him now The Colored troops to be mo bilized for the country's defense want his leadership State historian & Nat ural history Society FIVE CENTS A COPY. NEEDED BUT NOT WANTED IN AMERICAN DEMOGRACY, COLOR OVERCOMES ABILITY The Negro has demonstrated repeatedly, much to the discomfiture of his many white friends, that he is able to qualify in any requirement in almost any walk of life save the changing of his skin. In many instances the Negro's application has been perfectly satisfactory both in quality and quantity of his workmanship as well as in the required amount of training but the embarrassment has come to him and his white friends when he has shown up on the scene with a face other than that which his inquirers supposed he had. The Negro who was the occasion of so much disturbance at Schenectady, New York, was a perfectly competent machinist. No one could disqualify him on that. He did not lack brain. But he had too much color and color was not his fault. They admitted that Mr. Edmondson's application was in the regular form and told him that his qualifications as an engineer were all right but that the applicant must be able to use French. Thereupon to the dismay and the discomfort of the recruiting officers young Edmondson spoke French most fluently and accurately. Truly the recruiting officers were up against it and they simply had to stop buffing and admit that what they wanted were only white engineers. Thus the Negro is putting to shame those who insist on discriminating against him for no other reason than his color. Our government is fighting a war for democracy but it is certainly doing it with great inconsistency. One of the attractive pieces of advertisement urging men to enlist reads: "Enlist today in the United States army for the war only." A patriotic colorman seeing that notice offered his services. He stepped into the recruiting office and into the recruiting office and secured one of the circulars and read "Pay $30.00 per month and up, must be white between ages of 18 and 40." It is a strange democrack that will refuse a man whatever his qualifications because he is black and accept some because they are white. The circular which our friend read concluded: "Be a patriot if you want to fight for your country." Are all patriots white? - Exchange. Recently the government called for volunteers for the Second Reserve Engineers in Colorado. Thirty-four made application at Pueblo. Four of these men were recommended by the President of the Missouri Pacific Railroad. One of the four recommended by the President of the progressive Missouri Pacific Railroad was a young colored man whom the President knew was qualified in every way for the position of engineer which the government desired. When Mr. Robert R Edmondson, a Tuskegee graduate, appeared at the recruiting office the recruit- ing officers were non plussed The Beautiful American Woodmen Offices --The Pride of Denver. Employs Twelve. As indicated by the above photograph the very beautiful and well equipped offices of the American Woodmen are visited by many admiring visitors. Each is loud in praise of same. These as compared with other offices of a similar nature surpass almost all others in general equipment and fur- nishings. The office force, clerical help etc., make a splendid showing, especially because of the efficient help as represented in said force. The more than five hundred delegates, men and women of the highest intelligence from every part of the Southern and Middle States, seeing these offices were pleased to express their convictions that it is one of the very best owned and controlled by our people anywhere. The Denverites as well as the great American Woodmen Order should feel complimented to possess such an office. Church News CAMPBELL CHAPEL AFRICAN M. E. CHURCH, 23rd & LAWRENCE. E. M. WARD, Minister.

Sunday morning the pastor preached a most interesting and profitable sermon on "Unity." The large congregation gave expression to its enjoyment in generous and hearty commendation. The response was generous in the evening to witness the last of the series of summer stereoticon lectures. The pastor's subject was "Sin," which was illustrated with 27 powerfully descriptive slides. That the lesson was searching was evident from the fact that at its close four persons came forward for membership, one of whom sought baptism. The month of August closed with a high water mark for both attendance and offerings during a summer season. During the day nine persons, Sisters Emma Ownes, Etta Potts, Sadie Spates, Eustashia Carter, Isabella Marshall, and Brothers E. L. Nothington, John Blackers, J. D. Marshall, Albert Melton, were added to the membership, two coming for baptism. CHURCH OF THE HOLY RE DEEMER. Twenty-second Avenue and Humboldt St. The Rev. Henry B. Brown, B. D., Vicar.

"The silent protest" parade of 8,000 Negroes in Fifth avenue was characterized by perfect orderliness except for the possible offensiveness of some of their banners," said an editorial in the New York World. "It was impressive beyond the measure of most parades as being a public demonstration by a race against oppression by another race under a democracy. It was thus a human document of a different kind from the customary processions of white marchers, whether strikers, Socialists or suffragists. "What occurs on Fifth avenue is seen not alone by the city, but by the whole country, and the sight of these thousands of men, women and children of color marching silently for sympathy cannot fail to give their organized appeal for justice the widest possible publicity. "To that extent the parade was a conspicuous success. What it will accomplish in securing a remedy for the treatment complained of is another question. Will it curb human passion in industrial centers or modify prejudice? At least it should induce the people of the United States to take thought seriously of the conditions which have actuated this public demonstration by Negroes and tend to influence public sentiment in behalf of even justice to the race. "Negroes cannot be held wholly blameless for race riots, nor are they entirely guiltless of provoking the discrimination from which they suffer. But they are mostly industrious, sober and patriotic. The trouble makers among them are notoriously few, and the height of the injustice toward them is in holding the race responsible for the acts of the individual. That is a test the white race does not apply to itself, and the best way to improve the relations of the two races is to cease to apply it to the Negro." Come, Workers, here was a teacher; and the lessons he taught was good: There are no classes or races, but one human brotherhood. There are no creeds to be outlawed, no colors of skin debarred; mankind is one in its rights and wrongs, one right, one hope and one guard—John Boyle O'Reilly and Wendell Phillips.

When we have all we require for the development work, which tunnels and trams should be completed within 6 or 9 months after the required amount of money has been raised, it is safe to predict that we should be paying dividends within 8 to 10 months or less than a year after our work has been completed. We are going to put in a gravity tram to shoot the ore to the bottom of the hill from the before-men- tioned dump, which will only cost us 25e per ton to put in the ears, as compared to the original cost to us of $8.00 per ton for carrying same down the mountain side on jacks or burros.

WE HAVE TWO developed mines 1% mile from Silver Plume, comprising two tunnels about one-fourth of a mile each in length, from which we have been shipping silver values rang- ing from $50.00 per ton to $100.00 per ton, since the 24th day of last December. We are now extending these workings to get larger shipping capacity. Number 6.. WE ALSO HAVE A LARGE DUMP, which in sizé covers more space than the new Denver Post Office Building, containing a great many thousands of tons of ore already mined and ready for the smelter. It is interesting to note how this dump occurred: In the early days of mining, when they kad no railroads and no smelters here, silver ore had to be shipped by ox-carts to Omaha, Nebraska, thence by rail to New York, and then by water to Swansea, Wales, to he treated in the smelter there. The freight and treatment charges on same cost $90.00 and over per ton, so all values that ran ton or less was thrown on this dump as waste. Today the same ore can be treated, including freight charges not* to exceed $5.75 per ton, which should give us an average profit of about $8.25 per ton and should alone return to each stockholder many dollars for every original dollar invested.

The very high grade ore that comes from this district and the very important fact that there have been no mine failures of proper ties opened in the Silver Plume Dit trict, all had a bearing on my decision to invest all the money I possibly could in your company and advising my friends to do the same.

Replying to your request for infor- mation regarding Silver Plume Dis- trict _as a producer of Silver Ore, would say, this camp is known as one of the richest Silver producers in this country, and is particularly tamous for the richness of its ore and extent of its ore deposits, which seem almost inexhaustible, as some of the earliest Producing mines of this district are still among the largest shippers of high grade ore. The shipments from the before- mentioned district {s onw averaging over $80.00 per ton, which is probably the highest average for Silver and Lead ore of any mining camp in the country, which is also one of the largest producers. Another favorable condition of this district is the absolute lack of failure, every mine so far as my knowledge extends, having an exceptional suc- cess, a large number who started in a small way have produced millions al- ready. The richest and largest pro- ducers being located on the Republi- can, Sherman and Democratic moun- tains. Present developments Indicate that Silver Plume will soon be the greatest lead, zins and silver camp in the coun- try. I believe the Silver Plume Consoli- dated Mining Company's properties are ideally located and great possibili- tles are ahead of them. Very truly yours, TALLMAGE KYNER, Pres. Board of Mines and Commerce an} EXPERIENCE AND KNOWLEDGE DESCRIBE VALUES. Pere! ek June 25, 1917, MR. A. J. CONWAY, I have been acquainted with the mines upon Republican Mountain, above Silver Plume, Clear Creek County, Colorado, since January, 1872, having operated mines there from that time to the present, living at the foot of it many years, as well as at George- town. I thus have a personal and in- timate knowledge of the output, as well as the discovery of many of the mines. The ores which have been extracted from this mountain have been of an unusually high grade in silver. Many tons exceeding one thousand sunces silver per ton have passed through my hands. It is true that rich ores have also been taken from the adjacent mountains, but there are none which have a record of as high a general average from a like area. In addition to mining I did a great deal of assaying in the early seven- ties, as well as purchased ores for shipment to Europe, therefore this statement is made not from hearsay but from practical experience. In 1872 the cost of shipment of ores to England, including the treatment charge there, was about ninety dollars per ton, so that ores of less silver con- tent than one hundred ounces per ton, could not be shipped; amalgamating and chlorination mills at Georgetown at that time treated some of the less rich ores, but I think it is safe to say nothing less than fifty ounce ore was saved, everything else being thrown into the dumps. I make these statements with the endeavor to state correctly as far as human imperfections of memory about observations and experience of be- tween forty and fifty years ago permit, and the natural proneness to exagger- ation which time so frequently devel- ops, im regard to happenings of the past, and believe that what I have said is fair and not overestimated.

We quote from Saturday morning's "News" the following from the Editorial "Colored Troops in Texas": "A circular has been going over the North to inflame the Negro race against the whites in consequence of the outbreak made against Negro workmen coming North as a result of the newer economic conditions created by the war. This circular is garish in tone and appealing to an element among the colored population in most of the cities. It is called the 'initial skirmish, inaugurating a war of races unless colored people are treated better.' It is declared that the 'dark-skin people, the world over, want a repositionment—redisribution of the earth's surface' and it is urged that 'in the North we can vote but can't work; in the South we can work but can't vote.' "The people responsible for this stuff are the worst enemies of the colored people in this country and they ought to be prosecuted for instilling dangerous doctrine into the minds of their ignorant followers, for we cannot believe that the great bulk of the negro people, who are intelligent, are in sympathy with such a gruse. "There was no excuse and there can be no excuse offered for what took place at East St. Louis and it was significant that the whole nation was opposed to the outrages persecuted and called for punishment of the ringleaders. This work is under way by federal and state officers." The News has grown eloquent over the circulation of this circular, when the I. W. W., Anarchists, Socialists and every other class has for years made the same circulation among their class and what has the News to say to the raising of this class consciousness? Did the circular tell the truth, and is the News willing to answer to the truth? The Star believes in a square deal for every body and does not believe in a government whose principles are based upon deceit or lies. Either have pure democracy or no democracy. It is but hollow mockery of the Negro, when he is beaten and bruised and burned in all parts of the nation and flees to the National government for asylum, to be denied relief on the grounds of doubtful jurisdiction. The black man asks for protection and is confronted with a scheme of government checks and balances. mental checks. It is needless to attempt to place the blame on the helpless Negro. In the early stages of these outbreaks there was an attempt to fix an evil and treacherous reputation on the Negro race as lying at the basis of lynching and lawlessness. There are Negro criminals as there are white criminals. The Negro possesses the imperfections of his status. His virtues, as well as his failures are simply human. It is a fatuous philosophy, however, that would resort to cruel and unusual punishment as a deterrent to crime. Lynching and injustice toward the Negro has never made one Negro virtuous nor planted the seed of right doing in the mind of a single American citizen. The Negro should be encouraged in all right directions to develop his best manly and human qualities. Where he devises from the accepted standard he law. But as long as the Negro is held in general despite and suppressed below the level of human privilege, just long will he produce a disproportionate number of imperfect individuals of evil propensity. mails or even the mail. To regulate the Negro to a status that encourages the baser instincts of humanity, and then denounce him because he does not stand forth as a model of human perfection, is of the same order of ironical cruelty as shown by the barbarous Teutons in Shakespeare, who cut off the hands and hacked out the tongue of the lovely Lavinia and then upbraided her for not calling for perfumed water to wash her delicate hands. The Negro is neither angelic nor diabolical, but --- --- merely human and should be treated as such. The lighter and stronger races are coming in contact with the weaker and darker ones. The stronger breeds of men are relating themselves to the weaker members of the human family in all ends of the earth. How does it happen that in the U. S. alone of all the civilized lands, these atrocious outrages are heaped upon the helpless Negro? When in the West Indies, where Negroes outnumber the whites 20 to 1, rape, lynching and unjust practices have scarcely yet found a place in the local vocabulary. Even in Brazil, under a Latin dispensation, where a more complex racial situation exists than in U. S., racial peace and good will prevail. Then America enjoys the evil distinction among all civilized nations of the earth of taking delight in murder and burning of human beings. Now where else do men, women and children dance with ghoulish glee and fight for ghastly souvenirs of human flesh and mock the dying groans of the helpless victim which sicken the air, while the flickering flames of the funeral pyre lighten the midnight sky with their dismal glare. KELLY MILLER The Denver Star, in its effort to recommend various investments and enterprises for its own, has carefully investigated the reports, statements of the Silver Plume Mining Co. in the Foster Bldg., and have too, with Mr. Waller, Dr. Ford and Mrs. Horn, become one of their boosters and well wishers. The Star claims for them that they show an unusual interest in trying to put before our people especially the good investment and the strong points held by them. Somebody is going to make money and their stock is so held up that they cannot make money unless the company makes money. Silver is up now and the latest way of treating low grade ore gives us the assurance that the millions of tons of low grade ore already mined and thrown years ago upon the dump will be a very helpful factor in making this company a strong winner—not a quick winner, but eventually a sure winner, is our belief. The section of the country near Idaho Springs and Silver Plume where there have been few if any failures, strengthens our present knowledge that the veins already uncovered in their tunnel drive will easily redound to the substantial credit in dividends and not so far in the distance. So we are urging all who can make investment to consider the Silver Plume Consolidated Mining Co. and investigate. Call up and then do your own thinking. We recommend the same to you.

The league's building is without a doubt the only place in this big city offering the equipment and facilities it is provided with, and without doubt also shows the rapid strides of the United Civic league, which was founded by John M. Royall and a few other loyal citizens in 1913 for elective representation throughout the state of New York and the nation and for political justice and an equal administration of the laws. The large and lengthy basement can be suitably arranged for athletic events or for business purposes, while the main floor consists of reception and reading rooms and a large auditorium for entertainments and social functions. On the second floor there are four extra large light rooms for office use with steam, light and janitor services included. Adjoining these to the rear are the large bathroom and the manager's room. The third floor has three finely furnished, large, light, airy rooms for gentlemen lodgers by day, week or month, and off these are a large dining room, pantry and kitchen, which are occupied by Caterer Watkins for serving business men's lunches and catering to special parties. The United Civic league's motto is "Pulling Together." and the officers are John M. Royall, president; W. H. Willis, first vice president; J. E. Earlas, second vice president; Joseph L. Pritchard, treasurer; Henry D. Dolphin, secretary, and W. G. Isaacs, financial secretary. Board of governors are Benjamin F. Thomas, chairman; B. H. Lewis, vice chairman J. C. Thomas, Sr.; John A.

Cleveland, O.-A genuine Buckeye welcome awaits the hundreds of delegates and visitors who will be here to attend the annual session of the grand lodge of Improved Benevolent Protective Order of Elks, which will be held in this city from Aug. 26 to Aug. 30. Local Elks have provided many diversions for the entertainment of the delegates and visitors. While there is much speculation and rivalry about the election of officers for the ensuing year, it is generally believed that Armand W. Scott of Washington will be re-elected as grand exalted ruler. Among the lodges clamoring for the honor of entertaining the 1918 session is Monumental lodge of Baltimore. This lodge is one of the largest in the order, has probably the finest home in the country and sends a large delegation to Cleveland in an effort to capture the next convention. Cuyahoga lodge of Elks and the local temple of Daughter Elks are making great preparations for the entertainment of the convention. The Rev. Riley Woodward of Portsmouth, Va., grand chaplain of the order, will preach the annual sermon at Cory M. E. church, Thirty-fifth street and Scovill avenue, Sunday evening, Aug. 26.

These beautifully engraved cups will be presented to representatives of these respective cities during the annual meeting of the National Negro Business league at Chattanooga. Tenn. Aug. 15, 16 and 17. The Atlanta committee to which the first prize has been awarded presented a most interesting report, which shows how it worked with the aid of twenty-five local organizations and employed 211 active workers. H. H. Pace is president of the Atlanta committee and Mrs. John Hope general chairman. The campaign in Sallisbury, N. C., was conducted under the general direction of the Sallisbury Colored Civic league, Mrs. W. F. Kelsey president. The work of the New Madrid committee was conducted under the direction of the Colored Home Protection league, Rev. J. W. D. Mayes president. The reports from Nashville, Tenn.; Calhoun, Ala., and Evansville, Ind., deserve special mention, and it is the hope of the officers in charge that the AND MAIL TO 1837 Arapahoe Street, Denver Colorado reports of the committees named by the judges for prizes and for special mention may be put into booklet form as guides for the observance of future clean up weeks. Chattanooga is wide awake with interest and activity preparing for the meeting of the league. The program, which is now nearing completion, includes a long list of successful business men and women, whose stories of struggle and success will make the session one of inspiration to all who may be present. Various communities are already arranging for special delegations, and the railroads are co-operating by offering reduced rates and arranging for the special care and accommodation of the delegates and officers.

Enlistment Committee Issues Lengthy Statement. WHAT SOME FOLKS BELIEVE Report on Condition of the Field Attacks Validity of the Rev. Dr. Boyd's Claim to Ownership of Publishing Board—There Is Only One National Baptist Convention. Chicago.—The enlistment committee of the National Baptist Convention of America, the Rev. Dr. L. K. Williams of this city, chairman, issues the following statement as to its findings on the condition of the field: "The committee can in all truth state that its observations confirm the current belief that a majority of the people in the United States are with the National Baptist convention. Let none hesitate to believe this, for it is absolutely true." The committee has found that the people who are with the Boyd convention, many of them, are good meaning Baptists, though misled and misinformed. Many believe that Dr. Boyd is the father and sole patron of the publishing idea, that he began and crystallized with his own brain and money the enterprise and that the National Baptist convention for these reasons is cruel and heartless in its efforts to control the National Baptist publishing board. They believe that since he began the project with his own means he is the most sorely persecuted man in all the world. "The committee has shown such persons that the convention began and partly crystallized the publishing idea and enterprise before it knew Dr. Boyd. And as this has been shown good people who have been misled and misguided on this point have shown a disposition to stand for denominational or conventional management or ownership against board or individual management and ownership. Ownership of the Publishing Board. "The committee has found another class of good people who think that the publishing enterprise is already a denominational or convention concern and that there is no need of the present agitation. We have shown them that the convention thought that the publishing board was a convention on a denominational affair, that Dr. Boyd had so stated the same for years, but he refused to obey the orders of the denomination, given through the convention, and had at last refused to turn over to the denomination the publishing enterprise as ordered by the convention in its annual meeting in Chicago. "The committee has also found some in the ranks of the Boyd faction who believe that peace can be obtained through remaining there in watchful waiting and contending for a compromise. The committee has shown such that it is the spirit of Christianity to strive for peace, but peace with justice, righteousness and the ascendancy of truth. The committee has also shown that after ten years of efforts to adjust things Dr. Boyd first dragged the convention and denomination into the courts of this city. "There is still another class in the ranks of the Boyd faction who is there for the 'leaves and fishes'—the commercial and purchasable class made up of a class of ministers who desire honors and who have signally failed in everything committed to their hands. For instance, one of the most reputable ministers in the ranks of the Boyd faction said the other day he was there because he had some books he wanted printed and some one had agreed to print them for nothing if he would take the stand he was then taking. Another one said he could get his way paid to and from certain meetings if he took a certain course. Another one said the Boyd convention was the convention for little men, as all the big men remalned with the National Baptist convention. Confusion Exists In Several States. "The committee has also found that local differences in certain states have influenced a few to ally themselves with the Boyd convention. This is significantly true of Illinois and Texas. The committee has also discovered that not a single regular state convention has approved the Boyd convention. They have formed small splits in some states—namely, Mississippi, Oklahoma, Tennessee and Arkansas—but in these states or most of them 95 per cent of the Baptists remained loyal to their respective old time regular state organizations, which conventions maintain yet their allegiance to the National Baptist convention. "In Texas the new convention, which split off from the regular convention in Dr. Boyd's church in San Antonio some years ago, the convention of which Dr. Boyd is yet a member, is with him, they say, out of local pride and in self defense, but many of the men of this convention, good men, are displeased and restless over such a lineup. In Kentucky and Virginia the conventions have not reversed their old time former allegiance to the National Baptist convention, and the fact that they have not reversed themselves indicates their true attitude. In Virginia, a so called neutral state, the foreign mission money was voted the other day to the National Baptist convention, voted to it in the presence of Dr. Kern and over the protest of Rev. T. J. King, the secretary of the Boyd faction. "The committee has had in view one thing—Tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing else but the truth." It has gone forward imbued with the spirit of the convention it is endeavoring to represent. It believes kids: 'Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you tree.' "It has attempted to show the people that the Boyd faction or the board convention which meets in Atlanta in September can in no wise be counted a properly constituted Baptist convention, because Baptist conventions, when properly organized, are made up of messengers appointed by Baptist churches or Baptist organizations already existing and recognized; that the messengers thus appointed must bear credentials showing their appointment and authority to organize in the name of and for the denomination; that after the organization is formed as stated above it must be recognized by Baptist bodies of equal or co-ordinating rank; that the Boyd faction or the board convention which be attempted to organize at Chicago had no credentials or authority from any Baptist organization to organize a convention, but instead were appointed as messengers to the National Baptist convention, if to any. If they say they were authorized to organize—which they cannot say and prove—they will show themselves to be willful usurpers of power in all that they did or attempted to do in the National Baptist convention in Chicago the first day of its meeting." One National Baptist Convention. The committee has said now since the Boyd convention was not authorized and since no Baptist organization of equal rank, such as the National Baptist convention, the Southern Baptist convention and the Northern Baptist convention, has recognized it it is plainly evident that it is not a Baptist organization, and it therefore cannot by any rule of reasoning be considered the National Baptist convention. "Once more we have shown also that the Boyd faction, or board convention, does not itself claim to be the National Baptist convention of America. Look at its name. Here it is, National Baptist convention, 'unincorporated,' while the name of the convention is the National Baptist Convention of America. The committee has expressed its wonder why, in the formation or evolution of this board convention, it did not loose the post appendage, its tail—'unincorporated,' a very strange thing for a convention to possess. "This tall—unincorporated—is a new thing in connection with the name of a Baptist convention, but some of the Boyd followers said to us it was to show that our convention was incorporated and theirs was not. To them we have said Dr. Boyd proved in his paper syndicate before we went to Chicago in 1915 that there wasn't a word nor line nor resolution found anywhere in the records of the National Baptist convention authorizing anybody to charter said convention. We have told them that the National Baptist convention in its session at Chicago and Savannah refused to adopt the charter, and we concluded by asking them if the convention, as Dr. Boyd stated, did not order a charter before and has not approved once since it has been secured how can you or Dr. Boyd say now ours is an incorporated convention? Charter Opposed by the Convention. "We have told them that we were the only convention, according to Baptist precedence, according to the reputed vote upon the resolution offered by Rev. Brooks, which Dr. Boyd said indicated the opposition of the convention to the charter, according to the Bennett Resolution, according to the statement and visit of Dr. Booker T. Washington, made at the Armory hall the very night of the day of the supposed split; according to the verdict of the northern baptist and southern Baptist conventions and according to the verdict of the Council of the Federated Churches of America. We have said and proved that there is but one, only one, National Baptist convention, and it will meet in Muskogee. "The committee has shown that the Boyd convention's seeming opposition to charters is specious, a filmy pretext, illogical and designed to prejudice and mislead the unwary. We have shown that the National Baptist publishing board has chartered the National Church Supply company, all under the control of him who in words utters vehement protests against charters. The committee has also shown the people that if our convention was chartered it was orderly, regular and more nearly and truly Baptistic than a chartered board could be. We have shown them that conventions are bigger than boards, that Baptists believe in majority rule, that majority reside in conventions, register their will there as they do and cannot in chartered boards. "On this point the committee has produced and presented the charters of the Northern and Southern Baptist conventions and the expressed willingness of all their boards to obey the will of their conventions. On the other hand, we have shown the insubordination and selfishness of one of our boards, showing that out of seven in the convention, only one, just one, attempted to withdraw and form a board party or a one board convention. The committee has told them while that board's charter shows it to be subject to the national convention, its rules and usages Dr. Boyd has sworn that it does not belong to nor is it his board, amenable to any convention, but says it belongs to the Baptist denomination. Your committee has informed the people and led them to see the deception and duplicity that this play on words contains. They have been able to show that the word 'denomination' is an abstract thing, a concept, only an intangible, impersonal ideal something that cannot hold or control any property." DO YOU WANT HAIR?

A very pretty home wedding took place at the residence of Mrs. A. S. Travers, 2427 Emerson street, Tuesday evening, when Miss Myrtle Marie Travers, older of two daughters, became the bride of St. Elmo Brady, Ph.D., head of department of science at Tuskegee Institute. Rev. A. M. Ward of Campbell Chapel African M. E. church officiated. The wedding was a genuine surprise to guests, consisting only of relatives and intimate friends of the bride, who had assembled to meet Professor Brady (the groom) of Tuskegee Institute. The bridal party entered the parlor at the strains of Mendelssohn's wedding march, played by Mrs. Georgia K. Smith. The bride was attired in a handsome creation of white gaberdine, the waist of which was pretty adorned with tiny peals and wore a white hat trimmed prettily in lilies of the valley, and carried a beautiful bouquet of bridal roses. Miss Mosella Joseph and Miss Ruth Travers, the latter an only sister of the bride, were the attendants. Mrs. Alice Travers, mother of the bride, acted as escort for the groom and W. H. Black, an uncle, gave the bride away. Miss Travers is a Denverite and graduate of the Denver High school. She specialized for teaching at Emporia, Kansas, the Kansas State Normal and one year of normal work in Denver. She is admired by all who know her for her sweet personality. She was employed last year as teacher at Tuskegee Institute. Alabama she succeeded so well that she is slated to return for the ensuing term. It was at Tuskegee Institute that she met Prof. St. Elmo Brady, the head of the department of science. Professor Brady, the groom, hails from Louisville, Ky., where he received his early education, graduating from the High School in 1903. He entered Fiske University and received his A. B. degree in 1908. He was immediately employed as Instructor in chemistry at Tuskegee Institute and rose gradually to his present position there—head of the department of science. He received his M. A. and Ph. D. degrees from the University of Illinois where he was a Fellow in Chemistry, matriculating there while on leave of absence from Tuskegee Institute, 1914-1916, when he received his latter degree, doctor of philosophy. Prof. Brady is the author of three papers in abstract which appeared in publication with Dr. C. G. Derrick of the division of organic chemistry. He appeared before the American Chemical Society in two papers on "Original Research" and is a member of the PhiLambda Upsilons. Prof and Mrs. St. Elmo Brady left Wednesday noon and will spend their honeymoon in Louisville at the home of the groom's mother. They will be at home to their many friends on the beautiful grounds of Tuskegee Institute after September 15. The bride's traveling dress was a midnight blue chiffon broadeloth and she wore a black velvet feature hat, under which she looked pretty, to say the least.
