The Denver Star ESTABLISHED 1886 The papers formerly known as The Statesman and The Independent, have been merged into The Denver Star WENTY-NINTH YEAR Number 5 DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, SEPT. 8 1917 FIVE CENTS A COP NO NEGROES IN THE FIRST DRAFT GALL Washington, D. C.—Until the War Department determines upon a policy with regard to quarterling Negroes of the National Army at cantonments in the South, Negroes chosen under the draft will not be called to the colors. This course is due to protests from Southern States following the race riot at Houston, Texas. The War Department feels it will not send Negro troops to Southern camps until it has had time to consider the situation. One of the reasons for not calling Negroes in the first contingent of the draft is that some of the cantonments have not been completed. There must be segregation of the races in the mobilization of the men drafted under the conscription law for the Natural Army. These were the terms of an order regulating the matter wired from Washington to Provost Marshal Gen. E. H. Crowder to Adj. Gen. James H. McCord today. Killed in Self Defense John Little Shoots When Attack Isaac M. Ledbetter, 40, a Negro, was shot and instantly killed by John L. Littie, also a Negro, at the Denver & Rio Grande Railway company's shops, West Eighth avenue and Navajo street, shortly after midnight this morning. Little surrendered to the crew of the police ambulance. He asserts he shot in self defense, after Ledbetter had struck him over the head with a shovel following a trivial quarrel. The bullet struck Ledbetter in the left temple. Both men were employed in the cinder pits at the railway shops and had been close friends until the quarrel arose which, according to Little, precipitated the shooting. Ledbetter's body was turned over to Coroner Horan, who will hold an inquest. Led better lived at Twenty-first and Curtis streets. Little is married and lives at 606 Mariposa street, and is well thought of and always regarded as a quiet and peaceful citizen. He is a prominent mason. Dloyd, Fla.—Nathan Moseley and Willie Green, Negro farm hands, among the first men drafted in Leon County have multilated themselves to escape serving. Borrowing a shotgun, the pair went to the woods, and shortly returned, Green with four fingers of his hand shot off below the elbow. ★ TWENTY-NINTH YEAR MISS ALBRITTON AT PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH SEPT. 11 Musical Denver to Hear Singer Just as we would want other cities to turn out to hear our singers who are struggling to win fame in the musical world just so the Star is urging that musical Denver hear Miss M. Minnie Albritton, rightfully designated California's mocking bird, who is at present an advanced student in the Boston Conservatory of music. Youthful in appearance, matured in the execution of her wonderful singing, techinal in her outstanding featured phrasing, marked by her pleasing tonic expressions of such rich and rare quality, reaching her higher registers with remarkable ease and very little effort makes her such a musical personality that one longs to hear her give expression to her musical soul. We appeal to all lovers of music to encourage her by their presence and support. Let all Denver welcome this deserving young musical woman. Our girls and boys will sooner or later be touring the country and in as much as ye have done it with the least of these my singers. ye have helped the race upward that much. Color Line Ignored at U.S. War Camps Washington, Sept. 4-How color lines have been ignored in the assignment of Negro troops in the drafted sections the national army is revealed in general orders issued to day, showing the war department's intention to apportion the Negro troops evenly where possible in all cantonments. The order provides that in every cantonment there shall be one Negro infantry regiment where sufficient personnel is available. Protests have been made against quartering Negro troops in certain parts of the South., but no modification has been made. The order is taken as an indication of what the war department will do in disposing of similar regiments in the national guard camps. Washington, Sept. 3.—A regiment of 2,400 Negro steve dores for foreign service has been authorized by the war department to meet the demand for experienced men to hand le war supplies for the American expeditionary force in France. Recruiting officers, especially those in Southern seaport cities, have been instructed to seek men for the regiment. The army also wants Negro cooks and will give good pay to even inexperienced men if they have capacity and are willing to learn. OUR PRESIDENT SUFFER, YET WE STAY AND SUPPORT We appreciate the fact that in these trying days when almost dictatorial powers, as a war necessity, have been conferred upon President Wilson that there is one element in this country who regards as treasonable any honest expression of criticism, and any honest expression of difference. Suffering as our race has suffered at the hands of this National Administration—made to pay the full penalty for the color of our skin by the Southern oligarchy President Wilson ushered into office and into power—we cannot comprehend that we are guilty of a misdemeanor when we dare to voice a rebellious note against our unjust treatment—when we dare to enter a plea against discrimination—or when we dare to utter a warning against further violation of the Constitution by denying to us that which it explicitly confers—EQUAL RIGHTS. It daring to object to being crowded into the chasm of ostrasism—it daring to utter our protest against discriminations, unjust and brutal, that find no authorization in the Constitution or its Amendments—if daring to contend for what is right and just—for what our fathers fought for and for what the Constitution unequivocally grants to us—is a misdemeanor, then we have committed, and are now committing, a misdemeanor, and we are proud that we have the courage to oppose injustice All that the race had achieved in fifty years of arduous struggle, you became the instrument which lost to them, in one short year, all these achievements. Your splendid letters and speeches written or made from time to time, gave hope and assurance to foreigners far across the sea, but not once could you find time to utter even a sentence of condemnation of the lynching, burning, mobbing and denial of suffrage, our race has been forced to suffer. Never did Russian autocracy more effectively ignore the pleas of the Russian proletariat than have you ignored the pleas of twelve million Colored people, natives of this country. The Russian Cossacks rode down and murdered, with fiendish delight, the defeoseless Jews at Kishinev, while the world stood aghast with horror, but their Czar uttered no reproach, and assured no punishment. The Red Necks, the deprived of America's civilization at East St. Louis, with torch in one hand and gun in the other, charged the Colored district of that Sodom and Gomorrah, and did not withdraw until smouldering embers told that all Colored homes were destroyed; until lifeless forms, some half charred in the burning, wrecked homes told that a half a hundred Colored men, women and children had fallen victims to the mobs fury. The world stood agast with horror, but our President uttered no word of reproach, and assured no punishment. Your draft systera, Mr. President, will make available nearly a million Colored men for the trenches over in Europe, but it makes available NOT A SINGLE MAN TO PROTECT OUR RACE right here in America where the democracy we helped to create OUGHT TO BE safe for humanity. Our men will go into the trenches over in Europe, Mr. President, and fight peoples who have ever and always treated those of our race as men, rather than serfs. We will go at your command, because you are assumed to represent the spirit of democracy—because you are the president of this, the country, our country, we will ever defend to our last expiring breath, and to our last drop of blood. But you will pardon us, Mr. President, if we say, and say it believing it down in our heart, that never has there been a president of these United States to occupy the White House under whom our race has suffered more and been more retarded in its advancement, than President Woodrow Wilson. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, . SEPT. 8 1917 That strong defender of true Americanism, the Cleveland Gazette, edited by Hon. H. C. Smith, a man of whom all Americans may well be proud, printed an editorial in a recent issue which is so accurate an exposition of the costly blunder the colored people have made in failing to fight for their rights that we reproduce it. We trust that every reader will read it carefully and ponder over the truths expressed: "It has not been so very many years since the adoption of the war amendments of the Constitution and the beginning of a systematic effort on the part of our enemies to nullify the effect they were expected to have and its subsequent good. Since these efforts at restriction began, they have grown and multiplied rapidly and much of it has been due to our refusal to fight the issues raised with all our resources, before Before your first election, Mr. President Wilson, you solicited the support of our race on the assurance that if elected you would really be the president of all the peoples. Your letter to the late Bishop Alexander Walters, who, hypnotized by your siren song of sympathy, supported you, gave positive assurance that if elected president the race would be treated as other American citizens, and NOT as a conscripted and proscripted people. South distranchising constitutions have come, separate or "jim crow" railroad and street cars, "peanut" galleries in the theatres for our men and women, separate bars in saloons, "jim crow" city parks, swimming pools, "jim crowism" in dental offices, churches, Y. M. C. A.'s. etc. Indeed, there is apparently a desire for a segregation of races in Heaven, if some of them ever get there. These things have all crept upon us since emancipation and the elevation to a citizenship supposed to be equal to that of all other Americans. We have lost ground, South and North, because we have not fought, and when we have resisted, have lacked leadership, while other supposed leaders have played into the hands of our enemies. As a racs, we have been burlesqued, abused and humiliated by the thoughtless (some members of the race), as well as by those hostile to our interests, simply because there was lacking proper resentment on our part and a determination to take a stand for our rights with all the power at our command. When you assumed office, Mr. President Wilson, you made indecent haste in removing from office all Colored men who had creditably administered their offices. They did not object to going, and neither did the race, because of the mutation of politics, but you absolutely refused to appoint other Colored men in their places. To this the race did object, and this refusal of yours, Mr. President, was absolutely contrary to your letter to the late Bishop Walters. When you became our chief executive, you followed your hasty dismissal of efficient Colored office holders with segregation of the race in various governmental departments and bureaus. Although the race had labored side by side in the various offices, with white men and women, pleasantly; and without the least show of friction, the bourbon Democrats from the South whom you installed in office, and without prohibition on your part, segregated the race.

Progress Made In The East St. Louis Riot Case After a thirty days' grind the St. Clair county grand jury returned indictments a gainst 102 persons, 82 whites and 22 Negroes. In returning its verdict the grand jury brought out the following facts: 100 persons were killed and 245 houses burned in rioting. The estimated loss by fire was approximately $300, 000. Indolent officers, over awed by cowardly inclination remain inactive. Union labor created aversion to the Negro, causing race hatred. Shooting of policemen, a plot of mob leaders to gain sympathy, Automobiles that caused trouble were riddled with buckshot. occupants known but no arrests made. Plans to mob Negroes were openly held on Monday, but no ar rests made by official to fore stall the terrible carnage that followed. Lack of respect for law in East St. Louis. One rioter, S. L. Shultz, has plead guilty to the charges of rioting, conspiracy and assault with intent to commit murder in the circuit court of that county. He was sentenced to an indeterminate term of one to fourteen years in the penitentiary on the latter charge and to five year term on the conspiracy charge. like creature on earth. To such aggressive MEN,unjust restrictions will in the end yield and break down,because they will ever refuse to recognize them. In cases of luxuries of life such men will not accept the limitations though they greatly desire them and have the price demanded. In the case of necessities, they will fight restrictions and limit as far as switch in their power,the demand for them.

Important Meeting Held in Washington—Prominent Educators Speak. No more important or worthy organization could possibly have graced the spacious rooms of the Twelfth street branch of the Young Men's Christian association, Washington, than the Association For the Study of Negro Life and History, which held its biennial meeting at the branch on Wednesday, Aug. 29. Prominent men and women from many states were present, and the program was both entertaining and instructive. Among the speakers were Professor Monroe N. Work of the Tuskegee institute, Professor Benjamin G. Brawley, dean of Moorehouse college, Atlanta, Ga.; Dr. Carter G. Woodson of New York, who is the editor of the Journal of Negro History; Professor Kelly Miller of Howard university and other persons of prominence. If the achievements of the race in education, science, religion and business are to be properly recorded it must be done by members of the race.

Says You Back Home ON CAFE Denver, Colo. we marvel at the attitude of the president of the United States, who takes official notice of abuses and race discrimination in every part of the civilized world, and yet he absolutely ignores appalling riots and murders of citizens of his own country. This silence raises the question whether President Wilson does not actually approve lynching when the victim is colored. We warn him that continued silence may seriously cripple the efficiency of this nation in the European war. Applicants For Army Fail to Pass Test.

Foremost among the large number of well educated young men of experience and healthy moral stamina to whom the race must look for adequate representation, advice and guidance at times like the present is Dean William Pickens of Morgan college, Baltimore. Professor Pickens stands upon an eminence in preparation and scholarship which overlooks several years of diligent effort on the part of a well qualified man who has done yeoman service for racial advancement. From this height he has caught the vision of racial struggle, need and hu- JOHN H. HARRIS DEAN WILLIAM PICKENS. We justice for which we are striving. He knows our handicap and is striving in schoolroom and upon the public platform to assist in the amelioration of the unnatural conditions through which the race is groping its way. Practically setting aside leisure from education work and home comforts, he is spending the time assisting in the many movements extant for the opening of lesser opportunities for the masses of our people. Professor Pickens is now making his third speaking tour for this summer. Stirred by the East St. Louis riots, Dean Pickens accompanied and acted as spokesman for the Baltimore delegation which carried its protest against lynching to Washington. He appeared before Vice President Marshall, Speaker Champ Clark, senators and representatives of the house for the purpose of getting federal action against lynching mobs and also in support of Congressman Dyer's Joint resolution (118) calling for national investigation of lynching and punishment of lynchers. From July 15 through till the 22d he made a tour in company with M. L. M-Coy, principal of the Virginia College and Industrial institute at Petersburg, Va., through the Shenandoah valley, speaking in the interest of better and larger educational facilities for our people. The speakers were given much attention, and their message was received with enthusiasm. Professor M-Coy is making the influence of the institute felt throughout the state. Returning to Baltimore and the north, the dean spent a few days with his family at Atlantic City, N. J., and then proceeded to Cleveland, where on Thursday, Aug. 2, he delivered a most informative address on "The Relation of informing address on The Rise of the American Negro to the Present World Crisis." This address embodies the true meaning of the kind of democracy for which America is fighting. The speaker shows in this address breadth of statesmanship and learning adequate to grapple with and master to a satisfactory degree the many intricate problems which confront America now. Sunday, Aug. 5, Professor Pickens addressed a great throng at Toledo and proceeded to Chicago and other points in Illinois, where he spoke to enthusiastic crowds of white and colored people. The boys at Fort Des Moines got a message to the dean asking him to visit their military training camp before leaving for the southwest. Leaving Illinois, he went to Bluefield, W. Va., where he extended his intellectual powers to great heights in a masterly address before the Chautauqua on Friday, Aug. 17. The dean will conclude his speaking tour at Muskogee, Okla., before the National Baptist convention, which meets on Thursday, Sept. 6. It has been the custom of the National Baptist convention for many years to have Dr. Booker T, Washington, who was a Baptist, deliver the chief address at each annual meeting. Dean Pickens is not a Baptist, and in this particular the convention shows that it is broader than mere denominational affiliation. It is seeking light on all the great religious and civic movements; hence it invites the sage of Morgan college to express to the American people our achievements, hopes and aspirations. Teacher-Students at Hampton From Many States. Attendance of Hundreds of Ambitious Men and Women at Summer School of Popular Institution Is Evidence of Its Widespread Influence—List of Who's Who Among Them. BY WILLIAM ANTHONY AERY. The Hampton institute summer school has attracted strong men and women who are doing constructive, educational and community work in fifteen states and the District of Columbia. The enrollment has reached 427 (men, 74; women, 353). The significant and widespread influence of this enrollment is shown in the following distribution by states: Alabama, 23; Arkansas, 15; District of Columbia, 1; Florida, 4; Georgia, 31; Kentucky, 26; Louisiana, 14; Maryland, 16; Mississippi, 14; North Carolina, 80; Ohio, 1; Pennsylvania, 2; South Carolina, 10; Tennessee, 15; Virginia, 159; West Virginia, 16. The general education board of New York has assisted 123 leaders in education (fifty men and seventy-three women) in reaching the Hampton summer school. The numbers from the different states are as follows: Alabama, 15; Arkansas, 15; Georgia, 15; Kentucky, 15; Louisiana, 14; Mississippi, 13; North Carolina, 11; Tennessee, 15; Virginia, 10. Leaders In Training School Work. Approximately one-third of this number is engaged in county training school work, which Dr. James Hardy Dillard, president of the Jeanes and Slater boards, refers to as "one of the most important forward looking movements in education;" one-third in county industrial supervision work and one-third in institutional management work. Dr. George P. Phenix, vice principal of Hampton institute, who is the director of the summer school, counts it as particularly significant that there are at Hampton sixty-nine principals of schools, sixty-six supervisors, thirty-nine special teachers and nineteen matrons. Carroll R. Reed, superintendent of schools, Amherst, Mass., is giving for school principals a course in school administration, in which he is discussing from the modern point of view in education the problems of the elementary school. Work of Misses Touytellot and Lyford. For matrons of schools two courses are being offered. Miss Ida A. Touytellot of Hampton institute is giving a course of hygiene for those who have direction of the physical welfare of young people. Miss Carrie A. Lyford of the United States bureau of education is giving a course in institutional management. The course in hygiene includes such topics as health and heredity, hygiene of the home, hygiene of adolescence, physical and mental hygiene of dress, school hygiene, contagious diseases, emergencies and first aid. The institutional management course discusses such problems as the relation of home economies to food questions in dormitories, what constitutes a well chosen ration, cost of feeding, problem of marketing, problem of storage, kitchen equipment and labor saving devices, sanitation in the kitchen, disposal of garbage, kitchen gardens, working schedules, accounting and keeping of records, table equipment and service, sanitation of dwellings and surroundings, equipment of rooms, laundry management and problem of discipline. Enrollment of Who's Who at Hampton The enrollment in some of the courses has been unusually large—for example, agriculture, arithmetic and arithmetic methods, chair caning, civics and community work, cooking, institutional management, manual training, physical training, principles of teaching, school administration and sewing. A complete "Who's Who" of the Hampton institute summer school would fill several columns. Here are some of those who are attending: Mrs. Rachel L.

BURTON CAPABLE BUSINESS MAN. How Cyrus R. Foster Has Risen to Prominence by Thrift. BY CLEVELAND G. ALLEN. Philadelphia. -Some one has said that up through difficulties is the way to success. This saying is applicable to and most strikingly brought out in the career of Cyrus Raymond Foster. He is a fine example of what it is possible for one who has courage and ambition to accomplish under adverse circumstances. Mr. Foster believes in his race and has always cultivated a desire to build up a business in order that he might employ numbers of his own people and thus aid in the development of an army of business men and women who would give the race a permanent foothold in the commercial world. He is one of the leading photographers of this city. His studio is splendidly equipped and is one of the show places of the city. He employs several well qualified assistants in order to render quick and reliable service to those who may need any work done in his line. The success that has come to Mr. Foster reads like a romance and is the A. CYRUS RAYMOND FOSTER. result of a determined and dogged ambition to succeed.

C., where he remained until his senior year, and then he came to Philadelphia. He landed here without friends, but soon found employment in the hotels of this city, and while working in this capacity he was inspired to enter a more dignified profession and found employment in a photographic studio, where he began the study of commercial photography. In order to have an opportunity of acquiring the profession he began work at $5 per week, but so apt was he in mastering the details of the profession when he left he was getting a salary of $25 per week. He later went to Chicago and found work in the Rembrant studio and made a study of electric photography. His first venture was in Chicago, where he opened a branch studio, which he kept for about a year. He decided to go to Charleston, W. Va., where he opened the Oriental Art company, and the business grew to such extent that agencies were established throughout the country. He married Miss Dora Davis of Danville, Va., to whom he ascribes a great deal of his success. The strike among the miners in 1909 brought about such a depression in business that he was forced to seek a new field, and he then returned to this city. He stands high in his profession, being a member of the Photographers' Association of America, the Photographers' Association of the Middle Atlantic States, as well as being an influential member of the Union Baptist church and Bethel lodge No. 47, one of the most prominent of the Masonic order. He owns a beautiful country home and other property here. Mr. Foster is a man of rare parts and is one of our most substantial men. NO EXPERIMENT NEEDED. Bell's Idea of Protection For Colored Americans Is Amusing. William O. Bell's suggestion about the United States buying the Congo state from Belgium after the war and then offer to the colored people of America a free homestead under the protection of the United States reads like a fairy tale. To assert that the writer is an idle dreamer would be begging the question. The Negro race in America is at home. It does not have to seek the protection of the United States in a foreign land as an experiment.

JOHNSON SPEAKS FOR RAGE Petition to President and Congress Asks That Lynching Be Made a National Crime Punishable by Law—Nation Cannot Fight Battles of Civilization In Blood Smeared Garments. Washington.—Negroes of the nation carried to the White House Wednesday, Aug. 1, their protest against the atrocious attacks made upon their race at East St. Louis and other industrial centers recently. They appealed to President Wilson through Secretary Tumulty to speak "some public word" that would give hope and courage to the colored people of the United States. Mr. Tumulty listened to the reading of a petition and promised the delegation, which was headed by James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the National Association For the Advancement of Colored People, that the matter would not be neglected. The remarks of Mr. Johnson, spokesman for the delegation, in addressing Secretary Tumulty were as follows: "We, the committee of the Negro silent protest parade, in which 15,000 colored men, women and children took part on Saturday, July 28, in New York, come to present to you, and through you to the president and congress, a petition for redress of certain grievances. We come representing not only the Negro silent protest parade, but the colored people of Greater New A. E. H. HON. JAMES W. JOHNSON. York and the sentiments and aspirations and sorrows, too, of the entire Negro population of the United States. "We come representing 12,000,000 citizens whose devotion and loyalty to the nation have never been questioned—12,000,000 citizens who, when the present storm broke over our land, took their unqualified stand with the original American stocks that landed at Plymouth rock and Jamestown. "We feel that in coming to you we are well within our rights—the right given by birth, the right given by labor and the right given by loyalty. We feel, further, that it especially fitting that we come at this time, when the heart of the nation is so deeply touched by the cause of democracy and of humanity. "We come asking that the president use his great powers to have granted to us some.repress for the grievances set forth in our petition, and we come, further, praying that the president may find it in his heart to speak some public word that will give hope and courage to our people, thus using his great personal and moral influence in our behalf. And to these ends I have the honor to read and respectfully present the following petition: To the President and Congress of the United States: We, the committee of the Negro silent protest parade, representing the colored people of Greater New York and the sentiment of the people of Negro descent throughout this land, come to you to present a petition for redress of grievances. In the last thirty-one years 2,867 colored men and women have been lynched by mobs without trial. Less than half a dozen persons out of the tens of thousands involved have received any punishment whatsoever for these crimes, and not a single one has been punished for murder. In addition to this mobs have harried and murdered colored citizens time and time again with impunity, culminating in the nearly a hundred innocent, hard-working citizens were done to death in broad daylight for seeking to earn an honest living. We believe that this spirit of lawlessness is doing untold injury to our country, and we submit that the record proves that the states are either unwilling or unable to put down lynching and mob violence. We ask, therefore, that lynching and mob violence be avoided, and punishable by the laws of the United States and that this be done by federal enactment, or, if necessary, by constitutional amendment. We believe that there can be found in recent legislation abundant precedent for action of this sort, and whether this be true or not, no nation that seeks to fight the battles of civilization can afford to march in blood amused manners. We believe that the immediate action by the congress and the president of the United States. Rev. F. A. CULLEN, Chairman. JAMES W JOHNSON, Vice Chairman. JOHN E. NAIL, Treasurer. Rev. Charles D.

Army With Banners Asks For Justice to Race. NEW YORK IS IMPRESSED Spectators Read With Interest Claims of Marchers as Expressed by 15,000 Men, Women and Children-Khaki Clad Soldiers and White Haired Veterans In Line. With the beating of muffled drums as their only accompaniment, approximately 15,000 Negroes-men, women and children-marched on Fifth avenue. New York, from Fifty-seventh street to Madison square in what was announced as a silent protest parde. Flags of the allied nations were carried by the marchers, and many printed placards were borne. The women and children were given the place of honor in the formation and were clad in light colored dresses. Several automobiles, with prominent Negro clergymen and officers of Negro organizations, were next in line. The Children's Banners. A delegation of boy scouts carried placards in the section devoted to the children. Some of these bore the legends: "So Treat Us That We May Love Our Country," "Give Us a Chance to Live," "Suffer Little Children to Come Unto Me" and "Thou Shalt Not Kill." Almost half of the marchers were women, and many of these carried banners expressing such sentiments as "Our Music Is the Only American Music," "Pray for the Lady Macbeths of East St. Louis" and "The Great Contradiction—Love of God and Hatred of Man." The men marchers, like the other participants in the parade, looked neither to the right nor left. Many of them were clad in the khaki of the American military service, and here and there might be seen a white haired veteran of antebellum days keeping step with the young men of his race. The banners displayed in this section were more emphatic in their sentiments, prominent among them being: "Cafn, Where Is Thy Brother?" "We Were First In France; Ask Pershing," "The First Blood For American Independence Was Shed by a Negro-Crispus Attucks," "Race Prejudice Is the Offspring of Ignorance and the Mother of Lynching," "Put the Spirit of Christianity Into the Making and the Execution of Laws," "We Are Maligned as Lazy and Murdered When We Work." "Ten Thousand of Us Fought In the Spanish-American War" and "Repelled by the Unions, We Are Called Scabs." The circular calling on the Negroes of New York to join the parade of protest read: "We march because by the grace of God and the force of truth the dangerous, hampering walls of prejudice and inhuman injustices must fall. "We march because we want to make impossible a repetition of Waco, Memphis and East St. Louis by arousing the conscience of the country and to bring the murderers of our brothers, sisters and innocent children to justice. "We march because we deem it a crime to be silent in the face of such barbaric acts. Evils Protested Against. "We march because we are thoroughly opposed to jimcrow cars, etc., segregation, discrimination, disfranchisement, lynching and the host of evils that are forced on us. It is time that the spirit of Christ should be manifested in the making and execution of laws. "We march because we want our children to live in a better land and enjoy fairer conditions than have fallen to our lot. "We march in memory of our butchered dead, the massacre of honest toilers who were removing the reproach of laziness and thriftlessness hurled at the entire race. They died to prove our worthiness to live. We live in spite of death shadowing us and ours. We prosper in the face of the most unwarranted and illegal oppression. "We march because the growing consciousness and solidarity of race, coupled with sorrow and discrimination, have made us one, a union that may never be dissolved in spite of shallow brained agitators, scheming pundits and political tricksters who secure a fleeting popularity and uncertain financial support by promoting the disunion of a people who ought to consider themselves as one." Some of the Banners Displayed. Although a banner criticising President Wilson displeased the police, they raised no objection to these: "Make America Safe For Democracy," "India Is Abolishing Caste; America Is Adopting It," and "Memphis and Waco, Centers of American Culture." One banner carried near the head of the procession read, "Your Hands Are Full of Blood." Those in the parade represented every Negro organization and church in the city. They marched, however, not as organizations, but as a people of one race, united by ties of blood and color and working for a common cause. The grand marshal was Captain W. H. Jackson. Directly behind him marched the executive committee, composed of the Rev. H. C. Bishop, the Rev. F. A. Cullen, James W. Johnson, the Rev. Charles D. Martin, Fits W. Mottley and John E. Nall.

My dear Co-Worker: I have good news for you. God is answering our prayers. I appeared before the Rules Committee of the House of Representatives, Friday, August 3rd, and that night Congressman Dyer phoned me that the Committee was wonderfully impressed and had decided to recommend that the Resolution, begging Federal Investigation be taken up by Congress. Now, we must win. God will help us if we help ourselves. Keep at it! WORK! PETITIONS! PETITIONS! PETITIONS are the things that will prove that there is countrywide sentiment and determination back of this demanding that an end be put to mob violence. Now, I will not rest until every Congressman is appealed to to take a stand for justice and protection. Will you get men to sign these Petititions in ink, and you divide the number and send them directly to the members of Congress from your State? Send them to men in the House and in the Senate. See that the work is neatly done so as to reflect the intelligence that there is back of this movement. Tell our people to take pride and pleasure in this. Get influential white friends to sign some of them. Give them the literature and urge them to see their patriotic duty in saving America from mob violence. Get signatures. Every Petition counts. Fill out the inclosed memorandum and send it at once, to me. This memorandum goes to Congressman Dyer. He wants to keep close tab on what is being done by the Colored people themselves. Send each Congressman one of the inclosed tags. Write a very short letter, telling him you know he is going to hear the voice of his fellow countryman, pleading for justice and protection. Make it bristle with patriotism, but make him feel that this country is facing a problem at home that is no less serious than the problem abroad. Work with us in this. Pray with us and we will win.

We know of no instance that a Colored man or Colored committee or board has actually been called into a council of war to participate in the discussions of what the vital needs and resources of his people were. We know that the Negro, next to the Indian, is the original American. He has been here several centuries which cannot be said of any other race except the Negro. He is patriotic to the bone.

At present he finds plenty of comparatively lucrative employment which might not last always. Never having had the requisite knowledge of saving, he is now a great spender. To the limited extent to which he has saved money he has never learned the best use of it or how to handle it. As a manufacturer, trader, banker, shrewd stock broker, he is almost a nonentity. He has not learned scientific and commercial organization and co-operation. But now is the accepted time to turn a new leaf. Now is the time to save money. Now is the time to plan to start factories and stores. The present war will impoverish the white people the world over. At the close of it new economic conditions will present themselves. In the new shuffle the colored American may find economic opportunities never presented before. But for him to take advantage of those opportunities he must have capital and business knowledge. Therefore, let him now take up the study of economic questions. If denied an opportunity to do one thing for our country and flag, let us go right ahead making changes and forcing opportunities in other directions.

PUEBLO HAPPENINGS One of the prettiest weddings of the season was solomonized August 15th, when Miss Camila King became the bride of Mrs. Thomas White. Bethlehem church was artistically decorated with cut flowers and palms, and was crowded to its capacity. Promptly at 8:30 Mrs. Vivian Norman, gowned in a bewitching gown of blue chiffon taffetta, began playing "Oh! Promise Me," which Mrs. Ruth Eaton sweetly sang, she wearing grey crepe de chene with coral trimmings. The little flower girls, Marie Moore and Helen Goode, in white and pink, and Ruby Goode and Martha Moore in white and blue, proceeded the bridal party. The bridemails, Miss Blanch White and Miss Jimina Quillian, were handsomely gowned. Miss White in white net and carrying sweet peas; Miss Quillian in white with quill trimmings, carrying orchids. Little Clark Moore resembled a big doll as she proceeded down the isle carrying the ring in a big white lily. Mrs. Lily King, the matron of Honor, was gowned in white charamouse and wore a large picture hat. The bride entered the church on the arm of her brother, Mr. Walker King. She was a picture of loviness in a creation of white charamouse, carrying illies of the valley and American beauty roses; her veil was caught with orange blossoms. The groomsman, Mrs. Willie Long of Colorado Springs, entered the church followed by the groom and best man, Mr. Henry Elliott; all were attired in conventional black. Rev. Henry performed the impressive ring ceremony, after which Mrs. Normon struck up Mendelssohn wedding march as the bridal party left the church. The reception was at the home of Mr. and Mrs. King. The happy young couple are at home to their many friends at 1816 W. 17th St., where Mr. White had already prepared a palatial home. Mrs. Henry Elliott presided over a handsomely appointed breakfast Thursday morning, at which Mrs. Sherman Jones of Chicago, occupied the seat of honor. A basket of sweet peas formed an attractive center piece. Covers were laid for the honor guest, Mrs. Johnson of Lincoln, Neb. Miss Porter, the Grand Matron of the Eastern Star, Mrs. Julia Cottrell of Cripple Creek, Mrs. Robinson of Great Bend, Kan., Mrs. E. C. Thompson, Irene Johnson, Ruth Eaton, Ida Payne and the hostess. COLORADO SPRINGS. COLO. One of the most beautiful parties of the season was given by Misses Lella and Clara Seymour when they entertained with a "yellow breakfast," for their sister, Mrs. Thomas Wilson of Seattle, Washington, and their cousin, Mrs. Jerry Taylor of Atchison, Kansas. Those present were Mrs. Wm. Seymour, Mrs. Andrew Middlebrooks, Mrs. Sallie Maxwell, Mrs. Christian Hall of Colorado Springs, Mrs. Florence Dale Achison, Miss Olivia Porter of Oswego, Kan., and the guests of honor, Mrs. Jerry Taylor and Mrs. Thomas Wilson. An elegant breakfast was served and each left declaring the breakfast a great success. Yellow was the color scheme. Mr. and Mrs. Oliver Seymour enjoyed having visited with them. His mother, Mrs. Wm. Seymour of Colorado Springs, his sister Mrs. Ida Wilson of Seattle, Wash., and Mrs. Ella Taylor of Atchison, Kansas, a cousin, all have departed to their homes after an enjoyable time. Mrs. Ella Seymour of Colorado Springs, and Mrs. Maud Turner of Emporia, Kansas, were visitors of Mr. and Mrs. Oliver Seymour. CASPER, WYO., DOTTINGS. Grace A. M. E. Church held services at the residence of Mrs. Jas Henry, 342 W. Center St. J. O. Minor, pastor, made brief remarks which was very inspiring to all present, and resulted in adding five new members to the church. Mrs. A. J. Lyles rendered music for the choir. She was at her best. Mrs. A. J. Lyles has been ill, but she is at her post again, we are glad to welcome her back. The church is progressing spiritually and financially. Mrs. Wm. Anderson attended service Sunday night. We were glad to see her return to Casper after spending some time in Denver, to improve her health. Many glad greetings was extended to her. She is ready to take her place in the choir again. We are very pleased to say that our race is making good in Casper; some are holding positions that is a credit to the race. Mr. G. H. Smith holds the position as baggage checker at the Northwestern Depot, and is well thought of by the N. W.

C. Dyer in H. J. Res. 118 as speedily as possible. DEARFIELD. By N. BARNETT DODSON. In speaking of the success of the recent session of the National Negro Business league we should not overlook the fact that it was due in a large measure to the faithful work of Corresponding Secretary Emmett J. Scott. From the very inception of the organization Mr. Scott has been the one individual who has kept the members and the general public informed of every important movement fostered by the league from year to year. The record of life membership, the work of the executive committee, the time and place of each annual meeting and the task of getting up a program with speakers representing nearly every phase of interest or business in which our people are engaged has been Mr. Scott's. He is the business league's little "steam engine," and during the past eighteen years of the league's existence has pulled into the station of every business, professional, religious or social rendezvous of the race throughout the nation. When Dr. Booker T. Washington began the delivery of his last annual address before thousands of both races at Boston in August, 1915, he said: "Before uttering a single word of my annual address I want to thank Mr. Scott for the success of this meeting. The credit for this program and the bringing of so many successful business men and women together at this session of the league belongs to Mr. Scott." Dr. Washington was right. What he said of Mr. Scott then is true of the secretary now. Not only the members of the league, but the entire race, owe Mr. Scott a debt of gratitude which can only be paid in part by remaining loyal to the principles of the league as enunciated by Booker T. Washington. THE SEPTEMBER CRISIS. Current Number of Militant Race Journal Reaches High Water Mark. The September Crisis carries a twenty page supplement, with photographs, of the East St. Louis massacre, as investigated by the National Association For the Advancement of Colored People. The cover is the first of a series of art drawings from life of Negro types in the United States by Frank Walts. The editorials include "More Suggestions," "Awake, America!" "The Black Bastille" and "A Plan For the Southern Immigrant." The "Looking Glass" is an account with pictures of the Negro silent protest parade on Fifth avenue. New York, July 28. A poem, "Again It is September," by Jesse Fauset, with a drawing by Laura Wheeler; "The So Called Black Peril In South Africa," an article by Alice Werner; "Negro Soldiers," a poem by Roscoe C. Jamson, with an illustration by Carlton Thorpe, and "The Ragtime Regiment," a story by Henry Davis Middleton, are all of great interest. In "Men of the Month" are featured Ridgely Torrence, the playwright; Rev. J. A. Bray, general secretary of education in the C. M. E. church; Miss Mary Cromwell, the first colored woman to receive the degree of master of arts from the University of Pennsylvania; the late Rev. J. E. Smith of Chattanooga, Tenn.; Alderman L. B.

The three male escorts became real knights of honor to the eight female adventureshes, who made up that party of eleven, had the time of their lives. It was tarry awhile for the feast of good eats, climb, and work out the various patents of nervous kodaks, and beat a hasty retreat for the lunch baskets, for plies, cakes, chicken—oh! my, and watermilion, too. You talk of the Alps and your Pike's Peak—there is no comparison with dear old Fisher's peak. The party composed of such personages as Mr. Ervan Cruter, guide, of Forbes, Colo.; Mr. Charles Jones, of the immaculate mule steer, also of Forbes, Colo; the Rt. Rev. I. Harrison Wallace, the popular pastor of the St. Paul's Baptist church, Trinidad; Miss Novella F. Patton of Wiley University, Marshall, Tex.; Mrs. Ethel Render, of Kansas City, Mo.; Mrs. Leatha A. Campbell, and that very amiable daughter of hers, Miss Gertrude Campbell; Mrs. Lillian L. Brown, Misses Tresser and Nina Mason, Madam Hattie E. Woodson, all of Trinidad. On Saturday morning Trinidad was honored to have as visitor and friend of our needy girls, in the person of Mrs. E. E. Whitfield, Field Secretary of the National Training School, Lincoln Heights, Washington, D. C., who remained over Sunday to pay a visit to each of our city churches. Grace A. M. E. Chapel and St. Paul's Baptist Church. A generous response was given to the claims of that school, $16.25 was contributed by the St. Paul's Baptist congregation at the evening hour; Grace A. M. E. came fully up to all expectations. The services at St. Paul's Baptist Church. 1st Sunday, reached high water mark, both in point of spiritual awakening and generous response in offerings and obligations. The pastor seemed to be at his best at the 11 a.m. service. A masterly sermon on the rich young ruler, was delivered to a splendid audience, which gave expression in generous and hearty commendation. Many visitors and strangers were present. At the 3:30 hour found Rev. I. H. Wallace at Lester, Colo. where he was asked to preach to a crowded house, with an overflow that contented itself by crowding the door and windows. Subject, "The Mission of Christ." The preacher's words found open and responsive hearts. All went away helped and blessed for having came, though from miles around. A hasty return for the monthly communion service was made and a happy privilege was that of the St. Paul's church in that service. On Tuesday night, Sept. 4th, the reorganization of St. Paul's Bible Class, which has been on its summer vacation, was suddenly and unceremoniously broken into by a number of friends from the Grace A. M. E church and members and friends of St. Paul's church sought and carefully planned a surprise birthday party in the basement of St. Paul's church and forced an adjournment of said class, to the surprise and delight of the pastor and teacher, who soon afterward became the joyfull recipient of many useful articles as remembrances of friends and admirers. Mr. and Mrs. Johnston Seymour gave a handsome shirt; Rev and Sister R. H. Mackey, linen towel and pair of silk hose; a very delicate pair of white silk hose by Miss Gertrude Campbell; a box of three linen shallow hemstitched handkerchiefs, by Mrs. John L. Brown; a box of toilet (Rexall) soap, by Mrs. James Johnson, and a box of silk and lisle, black, hose by Madam Hattie E. Woodson. A contribution of a dollar by three widow friends of Grace A. M. E. church: Mesdames Booker, Steele and Harris. Last, but by no means least, a birthday, three-story cake, of many colors, by Mrs. Fannie A. McAlpin, and her very splendid daughter, Mrs. L. E. Ecles. The Rev. Wm. Hawkins, pastor of Grace A. M. E. church, was all smiles, with the ladies of both churches. A splendid type of Christian gentleman. A friend and brother, and preacher. P. S. Word has just come that Miss Novella M. Patton, the 17-year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John H. Patton, of 113 W. 4th St., was seriously stricken with nervous prostration. Miss Patton has shortly returned from a prolonged visit with friends and relatives at Pueblo and Colorado Springs. The St. Paul's Baptist Choir will remember their choirster lies dangerously ill, with sympathies of this entire section. CALL FOR RACE CONGRESS. Great Meeting Scheduled For New York Sept. 18 to 20. Loston.—That colored people of the country have been brought to their feet by the Memphis lynching, East St. Louis massacre and Chester (Pa.) riots, is shown by the interest taken in the call issued for a "speedy getting together" at New York by Byron Gunner, president of the National Equal Rights league, President Gunner has already received word from representatives in a dozen different states who are going to attend the tenth annual meeting of the league and the second annual race congress under the league's auspices, to be held for three days. Sept. 18, 19 and 20, at Mother Zion church, West One Hundred and Thirty-Sixth street, New York city. Our newspapers all over the country are announcing this national colored equal rights convention in their columns, and the editors are working with vigor for the formation of local equal rights committees that are to send delegates. The call has been given such wide publicity, the invitation being open to every organization as well as the equal rights league, the oppressed in every country in the civilized world have met as a group and put forth their case and their demand, except we colored Americans. Thoughtful citizens everywhere see that the race will be judged by the attendance at this national race congress. Every community that has not already formed a citizens' equal rights committee to send delegates is urged to do so. Three full weeks remain in which to do so. The last race congress brought men and women of all positions and all organizations together in close conference. It is ten times as critical now for the race as formerly. President Byron Gunner of Hilburn, N. Y., and Corresponding Secretary William Monroe Trotter of 34 Cornhill, Boston, are receiving many letters on the convention and will answer all inquiries.

Diggs headed the delegation, which asked for an opportunity to do something in bringing the war to a successful issue. They pledged their support and co-operation. After organizing the section he will name an executive committee.

AMPA 2962 PHONE YORK 4039-J DENVER, COLORADO A man with a rifle DON'T GAMBLE HERE ARE A NUMBER REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD BUY STOCK IN THE "SILVER PLUME CONSOLIDATED MINING COMPANY:" Number 1. WE HAVE LARGE PROPERTIES of great richness located near Silver Plume, Colorado, 52 miles from Denver, where your money will help to develop the richest silver mining district in America. Number 2. WE HAVE TEN CLAIMS, APPROXIMATELY 100 acres, in which there has been over $25,000 development work done consisting of a number of tunnels showing surface values on the out-eroppings with well-defined mineral lodes, with development which will open immense lodes of ore. Number 3. MR. JOSHUA BUXTON WORKED just one of these 10 claims for 20 years and supported a family of 18 in grand style, working an average of one day a week. Number 7. WE HAVE NOW RAISED A substantial amount of money. 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-mentioned dump, which will only cost us 25e per ton to put in the cars, as compared to the original cost to us of $8.00 per ton for carrying same down the mountain side on jacks or burros. Our capacity should be 100 tons per day when this Aerial cable transfer is in operation. Number 8. THE MANAGEMENT and officers of this corporation are gentlemen of broad affairs and large business experiences, who have many thousand dollars of their own good money in Number 4. WE HAVE STARTED a tunnel, 400 feet below these ten claims, which, when driven 700 feet, will cut all of the 10 lodes and should open up large deposits of very rich silver ore. Number 5. WE HAVE TWO developed mines $ \frac{1}{2} $ mile from Silver Plume, comprising two tunnels about one-fourth of a mile each in length, from which we have been shipping silver values ranging 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 size 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 had 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 be 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. I hereby subscribe for.....shares of stock of THE SILVER PLUME CONSOLIDATED MINING COMPANY at FIFTY CENTS per share, fully paid and non-assessable, with no individual liability to stockholders. EVERY MINE A SUCCESS—WHY SHOULD NOT YOU BE LUCKY? THE PEERLESS FILM AND PRODUCTION COMPANY, THE SILVER PLUME CON. MINING COMPANY, Denver, Colo. Replying to your request for the reason I invested in stock of your company, wish to say that after a very thorough investigation of your company during which time I spent nearly a week going over your properties at Silver Plume I found that all the statements you made were not only true but conservative. I was greatly impressed with the efficient management and splendid location of your Lone Wolf claim on Republican Mountain, which I am reliably informed is one of the richest mountains in silver, lead and zinc deposits in America. The very high grade ore that comes from this district and the very important fact that there have been no mine failures of properties opened in the Silver Plume District, 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. I consider I am doing my friends a favor when I tell them of your company as I do not see how you can fail to show earnings of over a hundred per cent. per annum or your entire capital stock. Number 7. WE HAVE NOW RAISED A substantial amount of money. 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-mentioned dump, which will only cost us 25e per ton to put in the cars, as compared to the original cost to us of $8.00 per ton for carrying same down the mountain side on jacks or burros. Our capacity should be 100 tons per day when this Aerial cable transfer is in operation. Number 8. THE MANAGEMENT and officers of this corporation are gentlemen of broad affairs and large business experiences, who have many thousand dollars of their own good money invested in the development of these properties, and who will safeguard your investment as well as their own and give you the biggest run for your money you ever received in your life. Number 9. IN THESE 13 PIECES of property altogether comprised of 3 parcels of property merged into one consolidation, makes a gigantic and attractive proposition for investors, when you stop to think that there has never been a single mine failure on the North Mountain of Silver Plume in the history of that great mining camp. Number 10. ASK THE FOLLOWING LADIES and gentlemen what they think of this Company: DR. JUSTINA A. FORD, LILLIAN HORN and MR. A. A. WALLER, who, after investigation, HAVE INVESTED substantial amounts of money in this Company. What they think of the property, of the management, of the investment and the exceptional rare opportunity. Number 11. THE TIME TO BUY STOCK in a Company of this kind is NOW, while the property is in a state of development. Our stock is now selling at 50c a share and should be selling for $1.00 per share in less than 90 days and we feel that it is a safe prediction to say that this stock ought to sell around $5.00 per share in a few years. Buy now at 50c per share. EVERY DOLLAR'S WORTH you can afford. Make your reservations AT ONCE for cash. Time payments accepted. Get in NOW while the stock is low and watch your investment grow. WHERE HEALTH, WEALTH AND PLEASURE CAN ALL BE FOUND. THE GEORGETOWN BOARD OF MINES AND COMMERCE. MR. A. CONWAY, Denver, Colo. Replying to your request for information regarding Silver Plume District 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 famous 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 beforementioned district is onw averaging over $50.00 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 success, a large number who started in a small way have produced millions already. The richest and largest producers being located on the Republican, Sherman and Democratic mountains. Present developments indicate that Silver Plume will soon be the greatest lead, zinc and silver camp in the country. I believe the Silver Flume Consolidated Mining Company's properties are ideally located and great possibilities are ahead of them. Very truly yours, TALLMAGE KYNER, Pres.

I have been acquainted with the mines upon Republican Mountain, above Silver Plume, Clear Creek County, Colorado, since January, 1572, having operated mines there from that time to the present, living at the foot of it many years, as well as at Georgetown. I thus have a personal and intimate 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 ounces 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 seventies, 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 content 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 between forty and fifty years ago permit, and the natural proneness to exaggeration which time so frequently develops, in regard to happenings of the past, and believe that what I have said is fair and not overestimated.

Gafford of 406 Maple St., San Diego, Calif., who was in Houston visiting during the recent soldier-citizen riot, passed thru Denver and gave a thrilling account to the Denver Star of the actions which took place. He never justified the soldiers' action, but he said that these actions had been preceded with insults, harrassments from the time they unloaded until they were taken from the city. One instance was, while they were unloading, one big Texan asked why they had on U. S. uniforms, that the place for "Niggers" was in the cotton field. He was immediately knocked down. His opinion was that the men stood all any real man could stand. 25c admission to the Albritton concert. People's Presbyterian, Tuesday night, Sept. 11th.
