TWENTY-NINTH YEAR GIVE US COLORED COMMANDERS FOR BOYS The Monitor of Omaha 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 lead 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. His country needs him now The Colored troops to be mobilized for the country's defense want his leadership Twelve million Colored Americans, loyal and true, demand that this valiant and tried soldier be given the opportunity to lead our men to which his services and proven ability en title him. President Wilson, Commander in Chief of the Army twelve million Colored American 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 merits this recognition, So says the Denver Star. Let every Negro paper copy. New York City,—In the investigation of the affairs of the late Mrs. Maude A. King, murdered recently in a mysterious manner at Concord, N. C., it was discovered that more than a million dollars had been squandered by Mrs. King and her secretary in a few years. One discovery was made showing Mrs. King had lost $60,000 in a few nights "shooting craps." Columbus, O.—Dr. Leroy Bundy is vigorously resisting extradition to East St. Louis, Ill., before the Governor of Ohio. At a second hearing Ex Attorney General of Ohio, Timothy S. Hogan, represented Dr. Bundy. The case is now before Governor J. M. Cox. Dr. Bundy is charged with having furnished arms to covered men during the recent riots at East St. Louis. Stuttgart, Ark., Sept. 26 Four white men, believed to be I. W. W. agents, were taken from the county Jail here early today by a mob of 150 rice farmers, who administered a whipping and applied tar and feathers to each of the men and drove them from town. The men had been arrested on a charge of inciting laborers to cease work. The Denver Star ESTABLISHED 1888 NEGRO GUARD SHOOTS WHITE INTRUDER Boulder, Colo. Gentile, a worker on a threshing machine died at the hospital here the other day from a gunshot wound inflicted by a Negro guard last evening at the Western Light and Power company's reservoir near Louisville. Gentile, who was an Italian with an imperfect understanding of English, was walking thru the files as a short cut to town. Cliff Alsop and Henry Tabbs, Negro guards, were on duty at the reservoir. When they saw Gentile ap proaching they hailed him. But he kept on, and after the third hail one of the guards fired. Gentile was shot thru the abdomen, the bullet making a deep gash. The coroner here has decided upon holding an inquest The shot, it is stated, was fired, by Alsop. Negro home guards were placed at the reservoir, when company C of Boulder was withdrawn. There has been some teeling at Louisville over the placing of Negroes at the reservoir, and it has grown in intensity since the shooting. Neither of the Negro guards has been arrested. Arcadia, La. Sept. 24.—Jno. Lewis, a Negro, and his mother were killed and several whites and Negroes were wounded here yesterday in clashes between white and Negro families. The trouble started when Pierce Dance, white, and Lewis started to settle a quarrel with pistols. Dance was disarmed by Lewis after being wounded. Later friends and relatives of Dance and members of the Lewis family met in a bloody fight in which the Negro and his mother were shot to death. Sacramento, Cal.—The oldest resident in the State of California lives in Broderick. He is Washington Jackson Brinson, and he resides at No. 510 G. street. Brinson is 107 years old. He is colored If his present state of health is any criterion Brinson will live several more years. He is an agile as a man half his years, and can do a day's work without suffering from the after effects. He attributes his good health to clean living. The aged man has a vivid recollection of early history of the South, and has a fund of interest, stories about historical incidents. Athens, Ga.--Rufus Mon crief, colored, thirty years old was lynched near Whltehall for attacking a white woman His body was found hanging beside the road. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, SEPT. 28, 1917 WHAT'S THE NEXT STEP, WHO'LL MAKE IT? WHAT'S THE NEXT STEP, WHO'LL MAKE IT? WHAT WILL THEY DO WITH US? There is a question concerning us, right now, which seems to give some people much concern. It is not whether the Negro is loyal or not but rather how far will the powers that be make use of our unsophisticated patriotism. Granting that our Government loves us (as step children if nothing else); granting that it intends to fair play us, which we have every reason to expect, is it not true that there is a sentiment crystalizing among our enemies inimical to the Negroe's prospective trip across the waters as Uncle Sam's standard bearer? Stories have been circulated under the following caption. To which we say: Bosh! In the meantime, the Negro proceeds with his program of loyalty but not without the discerning eye of the statesman. To his government he says: Send me to France and I will uphold the flag: I will distinguish myself and country; I will bring glory to my race as defenders of this so-called world Democracy, hoping that in some way this new record will attract the fair attention of those who govern. Maybe I can make a good impression on my country's allies abroad so that when the war is won and England is rewarding and improving her Colored Dominions and France is reconstructing her black units, perhaps these two truly democratic countries may induce mine to adjust its race problems on the only practicable basis, which is justice and equality of citizenship for all. To those who seem elated over the possibility of the Negro not sharing his usually big honor in the present war are reminded that over 600,000 black troops fought at Verdun! True, they were under other ensigns still they were black. To the sworn enemies of the Negro and those who cannot digest the idea of Negro officers not even for Negro soldiers these questions are asked: Do you oppose us because you think the Negro might present a bolder type of soldier? Or do you fear the Negro will offer a higher embodiment of Americanism? Do you think that the Negro will, by his deportment and valor, be able to refute some of the false conceptions regarding us that have been sown by our fair but prejudicial American friends? These we would ask and more. Does anyone imagine that the Negro's position will not be substantially altered for the better in this country whether he goes to war or not? It is clerarly understood that he is ever willing with that, "I'll go where you want me to go" spirit. Then, it is not his fault that he does not die on the ramparts of the battle-fields of France. But truth has its own propaganda. In this case it says: The Negro's position must be altered. For my sake, he must be hated more or loved more. He must either be more obnoxious or more pleasantly tolerated by those who have always opposed his progress. Those who do not want the Negro to participate in this war, how do they like the idea of the Negro's enforced stay-at-home proposition where he will have nothing to do but get fat off better jobs and read the casualty list (of course weepingly) off the other fellows? No unenviable position after all, looking at it from a selfish standpoint. But the Negro wants to deserve and preserve. But in fighting, he wants to fight like a man. He wants to feel that each bullet sped on its way has a definite purpose in bringing to his own the very blessings of Democracy. Above all, in wearing the uniform of his country he feels more than ever the dignity of manhood and citizenship and he receives with small grace any untoward limitations hate or jealousy would place upon him by those who wear the same blue or live under the same flag. Oh! Its great! Every paper you read nowadays is teeming with treachery being discovered in this country here and there, high and low. Treasonable literature, plotters and anti-American schemers are being apprehended every day. Amid all this Negroes are sitting serenely but watchfully waiting in their undeniable position of truth and its sincerity. After serving honorably in every war of his country; after suffering the worse forms of oppression, without showing any particular spirit of revenge; after producing no anarchists, dynamiters of homes, no assassinators of Presidents, no traitors to Old Glorp, he is even doubted in some quarters! The only new note I can find in the Negro attitude is that he means to ENJOY what he fights for and that if he protects him, to which I say Amen, all the time. - Kan. City Sun. THE NEGROE'S RIGHT TO WORK, AND WHY Within the past two weeks hundreds of men, women, boys and girls have paraded the streets as strikers, yelling seemingly for the sake of yelling, protesting against their union and its principles form a part of their employment contract. In these parades, especially those of the packing house employes, were many Negroes who were also yelling but who looked, in spite of their yells, as if they felt out of place and the onlookers thought so, too. There is oftentimes some unwritten history about public affairs and in the case of the Cudahy Packing House strike it was gleaned from inside source that the trouble started because a large number of Negro women and girls were recently employed there and the foreign white girls objected to working at the same bench with them and complained because the Negro girls on account of their strength worked faster than the white girls and made more money. The foriegn girls struck, the men went out with them and it is the common opinion that the strikers demand that their union be recognized was their hope to oust the Negroes from the good jobs. The Armour strike was said to be wholly unwarranted and it was largely the ignorant foreign employes with a small vicious native element that went out. The strike was a surprise to many because the Armour policy has been very liberal to its employes, and one thing certainly can be said of this house, it has al ways given the black man a square deal. Many a Negro who has spent years in the service of this house is now drawing a pension and living the remainder of his days out of want. A large number of Negro women and girls are also employed at this house some of whom are doing light work and making good wages On one occasion several hundred strikers threatened to rush the gates and drive out and beat up the employes who refused to strike. Some of the loyal black men were given weapons of defense to guard the doors. These black boys entered fully into the warlike spirit and after addressing the advance guard of the "hunkie" strikers in lan guage suitable to the occasion, invited them to come on so they could shoot h-1 out of them. Nothing happened. During the strike the employes were served a dinner. No different fare, no separate seats. After the settlement the employes, black and white men and women, received a FIVE CENTS A COPY. TRAIN PORTER KILLED BY DRAFTED SOLDIERS Camp Lewis, Wash., Sept. 26.—Four hundred and sixty six men, all but twenty seven of them from Butte, Mont., are held under guard today and a sweeping military inves tigation is in progress as a result of the death of "Texas" Harris, a Negro porter, who was killed in a drunken brawl Monday among members of the national army while en route here. Major General H. A. Green, commanding the Ninety-first division here, also appointed a board of in quiry to determine who sent 100 quarts of liquor to the train before it left Butte. When the train reached here yesterday the cars were a ver itable shambles, with blood stains marking the seats and the railroad furniture wrecked Many men were suffering from cuts and bruises, and up to a late hour several still were under the influence of liquor. The discovery of a revolver in the possession of one of the men resulted in a whole sale search, in which 175 revolvers, some of them loaded and others with two or three discharged shells in the chambers, were found. The men were oreeed to throw their firearms in a corner of a rail road station and then were marched to the barracks, where they were placed under close guard. letter thanking them for their loyalty and each letter contained a check for $10. New history has been made for this house by giving faith ful Negroes responsible jobs as watchmen. One Negro, after viewing this check and letter, said the only way the strikers would be able to get him out of Armours' would be to take him out dead. The trend of events which we cannot always forsee and the power of destiny over which we have no control seems to be giving the Negro an important industrial footing not only in the South!and but all over this country. It will be wise for him to secure a firm and permanent foothold It is well that he discuss intelligently what relation he should sustain to the industrial strikes of other races so as see whether his action in in the matter will make him win or lose. Some one in authority and competent is need ed to advise him. Who can who will?—Kan. City Sun. Church News THE ZION BAPTIST CHURCH, 24th Avenue and Ogden, David E. Over, D. D., Minister. Telephones, York 6007, York 9377. Two large congregations greeted the pastor last Sunday. It was evident that the morning's message on "Character" was genuinely helpful and presented with a delivery which caught and held attention. At the evening service the pastor gave the report from the National Baptist Convention at Atlanta, Ga. The report recited the incidents in the most successful convention in the history of our mighty denomination. and gave such interesting side lights on social and economic conditions at the South as to fill the vast audience with optimism as to the future of the "problem," which, as the pastor said, is now in the very cruz of solution. For that part of the community who desire a mid-week devotional service of real inspiration and power an invitation is extended to meet with Zion on Wednesday evening at 8 o'clock. There is a welcome and hearty fellowship. COME! If you desire to once witness the entire membership of a great church gathered for morning worship, come to Zion on the morning of the 7th of October. HOME COMING DAY WILL BE OBSERVED and every member and friend is expected to be there. The pastor will preach from the subject, "A Prospect and Its Opportunity." You will enjoy this.

This is our Annual Sunday School Rally Day, which this year we propose to make a Home Coming Day for the entire congregation and church. The Sunday School at the morning hour is planning to see 500 persons present, and at the 11 o'clock hour we desire that every member and friend of Zion enter with us into the morning worship. What a wonderful sight it will be to see every person on Zion's roll, who is in the city and physically able to be present, in one vast congregation of worshipers. The plan includes the sending of automobiles to convey every aged and infirm person to the service. All those whose work hinders from attending the morning worship are urged to secure, if possible a half holiday for this great occasion. It will be a fine and inspiring for Zion church, as well as the community, to once see itself together. Our friends will also be welcome as we will have nearly 1,100 seatings. The program will also be in keeping with the occasion and the day. The pastor will preach from the subject "A Prospect and Its Possibilities." There will be music, great music, in chorus, congregation and solo, both instrumental and vocal. Our great auditorium will be decorated as it has never been. The community knows that when Zion plans to do things it may expect something unusual. Fur thermore, it will be on hand to see You cannot forget the date, Sunday, October 7th; it will be published every week, and everybody will be talking about ZION'S HOME COMING AND RALLY DAY.

NAMPA 2962 1917 PHONE YORK 4039-J A Musician DON'T GAMBLE Speculate or take chances. Don't try to get rich over night. Put your money in a safe, sound and profitable investment. Prudence and thrift are admirable qualities. They are traits that should be cultivated. Saving is essential to a comfortable old age, but thrift should not be confused with miserliness. A sock full of pennies well invested will return several socks full of coin, while if the original savings are hoarded, it will retain its size until eternity, but never take on greater bulk. Courage is a fit companion for thrift, and the two working in double harness will attain results that either could accomplish alone. The real big men of today are men who have never shrunk from taking a chance. They foresaw the possibilities of a venture, cast timidity aside, invested their savings and drew big rewards, while their timorous grothers kept on saving their pennies, bewailing the "good luck" of the man who dared. The treasures of the earth would still remain uncovered were it not for the men who were willing to take a chance. Had mining been left to the timid, we would not be enjoying the use of the precious metals for money or jewelry, or the baser ones for the common utilities of life. THE MAYANES The above shows the dump of ores and value of years of accumulation of low grade values. It is already mined and on top of the ground. Look, see and think. The man who looks deepest, thinks fastest, goes the farthest. A lost hour is a lost chance. Getting started is the first essential of getting anywhere. This dump having assay tests made on all sides gives a flattering future. Assays from this old dump have varied from 20 to 1731½ ounces of silver per ton with sufficient lead to pay the cost of transportation and smelting; and this is not surprising, as the cost of smelting and shipping ore in the early days of The Snowdrift Mining Co. operations cost $90.00 per ton, making ore worth less than $100 per ton valueless, while this same ore can now be loaded, shipped to Denver and smelted for less than $6.00 per ton. While this condition was unfortunate for the early operators, the rich ore dumps left by reason of the crude methods employed by the pioneer miners, means sure profit without risk for the investors and mining operators of today. Statement of Daniel Peters, superintendent of Snowdrift mine, March 15th, 1880, to Gen. E. M. McCook of New York: "At the time I worked the mine, I never saved ore that paid anything less than $100.00 per ton, my orders being to throw anything on the dump pile which ran under that amount. I have been in Colorado ten years and consider this one of the best in the state. The title of this mine is the oldest in the district." General McCook was President of Snowdrift Company and ex-Governor of Colorado.

Dear Sir: Replying to your request for information as to the average value of ore shipped from the Silver Plume district, wish to state that about 75 per cent. of the ore handled through this office comes from Silver Plume and at the present time is averaging over $80.00 per ton. This camp is known as one of the richest camps for silver in the country, and while this was true in the past, the shipments of today show that she has not lost any of her reputation. As far as I can remember there have not been any failures in any company here in handling silver properties. I believe that in the near future this camp will be the greatest Silver, Lead and Zinc camp in the country. Hoping that this information will be of the right service for you. I remain. P. P.

BUXTON Mining Contractor. Silver Plume, Colorado. June 15th, 1917. The Silver Plume Consolidated Mining Co., Denver, Colo. Gentlemen: I was born and raised in Silver Plume and having worked in the mines of this district for over 14 years, I am thoroughly familiar with the history and workings of all the mines of the Silver Plume district. The famous bonanza silver mines of this district that have produced so many fortunes for investors and owners have all been worked for a great many years through tunnels that cut the mountains for a great many miles in every direction and yet there is no indication that any of these mines have been worked out and some of the oldest mines are producing more ore now than when first discovered. The above statement seems more remarkable when the fact that no mine of this district has ever proven a failure is given consideration. The group of ten claims of the Silver Plume Consolidated Mining Company on Brown Mountain give more evidence in the outcroppings and the quality and character of the ore taken from your upper tunnel, now about 100 feet in length, of being a bonanza strike of unusual size and value, than any of the mines in which I have ever worked and I have worked in every rich mine in this district. The fact that ore worth over $1,000 per ton has been taken from your Buster tunnel, still so near the surface, is evidence to any experienced miner that practically unlimited wealth awaits only the proper machinery and equipment to extract it from the ground. One advantage you have over any of the other companies operating in this district, is not only the richness of the ore and the width of the veins, but the very unusual size of your very valuable properties, which I believe are fully twice as large as any of the workings in this district. Wishing you every success, Yours truly, JAS. M. BAXTON. Groceries, Provisions, Hardware, Mining Supplies, Paints, Ooils, Etc. Tobacco and Cigars. Silver Plume, Colo. Silver Plume, Colo., June 15, 1917. The Silver Plume Consolidated Mining Company, Denver, Colo. Gentlemen: It has been a mystery to me, why Silver Plume, the richest silver mining camp in the United States, is so little known to the investors of the country and why even the residents of this town has no chance to invest in and receive some of the profits of these tremendously rich mining properties in the surrounding mountains. Almost unbelievable fortunes have been taken from the Rocky Mountains tains surrounding Silver Plume, but practically all of the mines are owned by rich companies who keep all the profits for themselves. The Silver Plume Consolidated Mining Company is the first company engaged in mining in this canon which has ever given the small investor an opportunity to share the tremendously rich profits of this district which has never known a mine failure.

SLOGAN—"STOP LYNCHING AND MOB VIOLENCE BY LAW." WHO GOT THE MONEY FROM SOLDIER AUDITORIUM DANCE? The Star attacks and expects atacks in return from every source high, low, wise or unwise, in its active effort to better Denver. We fight in the open a foe worthy of our steel looking him square in the eye; but we loathe a low, sneaking, truckling, honest, conscienceless and characterless coward who strikes at a real person in the dark with an unsigned article. Sneaks, deceivers and backboneless cowards always use a "non de plume" or use a name other than their own. The Star only asked a few pertinent questions relating to the finances of the "advertised and much-heralded reception" which afterwards turned out to be a dance, in 23 lines, and in the other paper, 111 lines were used in advice, "attempted fun" and criticism seasoned high with an "infallible" ego and without one word as to who got the money, what was to be done with the public's money and whether the officers or the men were to use it to buy property, pay for their taxes, pay house rent or to use it for recruiting purposes or to buy athletic goods or dainties for the members of the battalion. We merely asked a few questions touching the ticklish question of the disposition of the finance and to our greatest surprise some unnamed, unsigned sneakish coward "yelped" as we insisted that men whose past public and private record for handling the finance be put in the position to handle the money. We can imagine just who was hit. We ask again if the people who attended the dance are not entitled to know who "got the coin" or how and between whom were the proceeds divided? The Star does not ask nor does want any of the credit of giving that dance, but we shall hope to report to you soon. We do not notice articles from cowards who are too scared to sign their names.

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.

Will you get men to sign these Petitions 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.

MAKE HAY WHILE THE SUN SHINES. NOW IS THE TIME. The Outlook, Inlook and Uplook. The Negro battalion in Ohio to be led by Col. Young, has been mustered out. The Negro officer and soldiers have been shown by this administration that their services are not wanted. They have volunteered and have been flatly turned down and must wait until they are drafted. Americans are making this a color line war on this side of the water, since that is so and the white man is in power is grappling with a powerful enemy in a ruthless war, let us turn our minds, hearts and activities to other vocations in life. 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. Tho' a laboring man distinctively, yet unwelcome in labor organizations, he must still furnish indispensable brain and brawn to and for our industries, now and after the war. 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. 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. Keep moving; "Perge Modo;" only go on conquering and making our way up the hill. WHO IS LOOKING AFTER THE MONEY TO BE RAISED FOR THE COLORADO COLORED BATTALION? The Star says now that only responsible people whose records for honesty, truthfulness and square dealing is clear and vouchsafed, should be entrusted with the handling of the money gotten from the public under the advertised plea and that a checking account should be inaugurated and a report made to the people of the expenditure of the money. In other words, the Star thinks and says that the people or public should know whether the money went to the officers, the men or for recruiting purposes and who raised the money to go finally into what persons pocket. We shall use every effort to ascertain "who figured in the pie" and report to you. FREE PUBLIC OPPORTUNITY SCHOOL, 13th AND WELTON. Opens Sept. 4 and Continues to June 5, 1918.

MOVE FOR CHRISTIAN UNITY Host of Its Supporters Ready to Defend Thrifty Institution For Women and Girls Under the Able and Successful Management of Miss Nannie Helen Burroughs. The property of the National Baptist convention will quite likely be the center of interest during sessions of the convention, which began at Muskogee, Okla., Thursday, Sept. 6. Powerful interests are at work, sowing distrust and pointing at petty technicalities in the management, in order that grave and sweeping changes might be accomplished, the ill effects of which may be felt for years to come. The National Training school at Lincoln heights, Washington, is rounding out its sixth year with a record of which a much older institution might be justly proud. The bulletin on Negro education, compiled by the United States bureau of education, on page 154, refers to this school as one of the best managed schools in the country. The record of the work accomplished by its graduates is a credit to the race and an honor to the denomination. The following shows concisely how absolutely this work is united with the National Baptist convention. Article 9 of the bylaws reads: "No long as the Women's auxiliary and the National Baptist convention shall foster the institution the executive staff of both conventions and the secretaries of the boards shall always be members of the board of trustees. At their first meeting the trustees shall divide themselves into classes by alphabetical arrangement of states as nearly equal as possible; these classes to serve one, two or three years respectively, but all trustees to continue in their offices until their successors have been elected and signified acceptance thereof. Subsequent elections shall be for the term of three years unless in the case of vacancies, which shall be filled for the unexpired term of the class in which they occur." Can anything be more cooperative than this? The National Training school has reached its high degree of efficiency under the able direction of Miss Nannie H. Burroughs, loyally assisted by the faithful women of the auxiliary and others. The National Baptist convention as represented by the men has been sadly barren of results. For twenty years it has been building a seminary for the youth of our country, and still this is but a figment of the fertile imaginations of our strong men. While men dreamed dreams and had visions, the women under God have presented a living reality, a visible monument and a source of inspiration. God forbid that their wonderful work should inspire jealousy, incite envy or breed avarice. The National convention as such has contributed but little, if anything, toward the financial support of this work. There seems to be a deep laid plan to depose Miss Burroughs and place her in the worst possible light. Notable Society Event at Lorain, O. The marriage of Miss Wilhelmina Jackson to Robert L.

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. ASK ONLY EVEN JUSTICE. Negroes Who Paraded In New York Unheld by New York World Upholsty by New York World. "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 wildest 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." VANDERVALL IS OPTIMISTIC. Plenty of Room In New Jersey For Migrants From the South. Commenting on the change of residence of so many colored people from the south to the north and west, Mr. James N. Vandervall, a well known influential and well to do business man of Orange, N. J., says: "The sudden influx of thousands of southern colored laborers to Newark, the Oranges and New York instead of creating a problem may prove a blessing. "There is room enough on the fertile plains of New Jersey for many thousands who are willing to work. With care and good judgment the colored people who came to this section from the south can make a handsome living in the farm and eventually become large handholders." New and Repair Work. .

Noted Chicago Surgeon Delivered Principal Address at Recent Dedication of the Tawawa Hospital, Connected With Wilberforce University. --- --- The recent dedication of the Tawawa hospital at Wilberforce university marks another step in the direction of adequate equipment for that famous higher institution of learning, so ably presided over by its president, Dr. W. S. Scarborough, Dr. W. A. Galloway, president of the board of trustees, presided at the exercises, which were timely and impressive. The program consisted of organ voluntary, invocation by the Rev. E. A. Clark, "United Liberty March," Losey, by an orchestra; remarks by Dr. W. A. Galloway and Professor W. A. Joiner, superintendent of the commercial, normal and industrial department; song, "Out In the Field," French, Charles Polnts. The dedicatory address was delivered by Dr. Daniel H. Williams of Chicago, who is the most noted surgeon of the colored race in America. Dr. Williams is one of the surgical staff of St. Luke's hospital, Chicago. He not only delivered the chief address at the dedicatory services of the Tawawa hospital, but was present also at the graduation exercises held in Galloway hall. A duet, "Gondolier," Hoffman, was very sweetly rendered by Miss Askew and Mr. Bard. After remarks of appreciation by President Scarborough the exercises were closed with the benediction. ```markdown ``` Denver, Colo.

FACTORS IN RACE BUILDING Extraordinary Facts Relative to Grade and Curricula of Our Schools Revealed In Government Specialist's Report—Of Higher Institutions Only Three Warrant University Rank. The section of Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones' report dealing with higher institutions of learning for our people shows that Dr. Jones by no means feels that agricultural and industrial education are the only forms of training required for a people numbering more than 10,000,000. He does feel however, that there are a number of institutions which are impairing their value by trying to maintain collegiate departments at the expense of their secondary training when the great bulk of their students are of only secondary grade. He urges emphatically that such institutions either give up their college courses entirely and devote themselves to the development of their secondary work or merge their college department with those of other institutions in the same position, so that a faculty and equipment really adequate to fill collegiate standards may be created. Howard university, Flisk university and Mehlary Medical college are, he says, the only three institutions which warrant classification as universities. } Main 7007 a deal, subject to good title, whereby Montgomery County, Kansas, and with following property: Five producing gas plant supplying the town of Wayfully equipped with tankage, power, properties in Nowata County with large wells, with full lease equipment, and operating on the lease.

The eleventh annual report, Just issued, of the Negro fresh air committee, 13, East Sixty-sixth street, New York, tells of the struggle during the poliomyelitis epidemic last summer to keep Negro children in good physical condition and to get as many as possible of them away from the city. There were no day excursions last summer, and thirty-seven small boys who had been examined and were ready to go were stopped because of the infantile paralysis, but eleven girls from six to twelve years of age went to Deposit, N. Y., for four weeks, their board and fare being paid by the Tribune fresh air fund. Twenty-two persons of sixteen years and over spent two weeks each at St David's home, White Plains, N. Y. one adult spent one week in the country, financed by the Association For Improving the Condition of the Poor; two others spent two weeks, their expenses being paid by Mariners' temple and ten others were given a week by the Association For the Blind. Two hundred visits were made through the summer by Miss Henrietta B. French, visitor. At the end of the summer $200 not needed for board money was put into the slowly growing house fund. This summer mothers and babies are at Elmsford, and a camp is in preparation for the older girls at Palisades park during August. The Tribune fresh air fund and the Verona camp for boys will care for their usual groups. If the committee can obtain $3,000 by next year there is a prospect that it can get a house of its own. It already has one in prospect; $300 will cover administrative expenses for this summer. All other gifts will go into the house fund. The Ellis Oil Co. 10,000,000 Shares - Par Value 1c.

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 misformed. 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 or 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. --- 919 19th Street Low Capitalization, Capable Management and Sufficient Acreage are the Factors to consider.

Invest In WYOKLA NOW REASONS WHY Denver, Colorado NEW YORK IS IMPRESSED Spectators Read With Interest Claims of Marchers as Expressed by 15,000 Men, Women and Children—Khakil 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 parade. 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: "Cain, 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 danger- ous, hampering walls of prejudice and inhuman injustices must fall. "We march because we want to make impossible a repetition of Waco, Mem- phis and East St. Louls 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 tollers 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, Fitz W. Mottley and John E. Nail.
