REPUBLICANS CHOOSE NE-
GRO FOR ALDERMAN
The aldermanic candidate has quite an interesting history. James C. Thomas, Jr., was graduated from the city schools and Cornell University, where he took high honors as a scholar and made an enviable record as a member of the university track team. His father is an undertaker, who has amassed a fortune that is said to approach $1,000 000. Young Thomas was admitted to the Negro York bar in 1912, and was a delegate at large to the Constitutional conversion of which Hon. Elihu Root was chairman. Mr. Thomas lives at 2229 Fifth avenue. He is a candidate for alderman from the Twenty six district of the Twenty first Assembly district. Mr. Thomas' lead his nearest opponent by 150 votes.
Race men and women of the district held a hugh rally and parade last Thursday night, paying tribute to signal victory won by the candites of their choice. It is said that many race men say their can didates will win in the November election.
Six hundred seventy-eight Negroes who have been in training four months at Fort Des Moines officers' training camp, received their commissions in the national army today. One hundred sixty were commissioned captains, 320 first lieutenants and 198 second lieutenants. These new officers will command the seventeenth division of the national army, which is composed entirely of Negroes. Among the men graduated to day are non commissioned of ficers of the various Negro regiments of the regular army many of the veterans of the Spanish American war.
Twelve hundred and ninety eight enlisted men of the Negro Cavalry stationed at Fort Huachuca have subscribed $130,350 to the Second Liberty loan.
El Centro, Cal., Oct. 12. More than 150 men, women and children arrived here from Texas to aid in harvest ing the crop. They are employed by the Timken Ranch Company. An effort will be made to induce them to establish permanent residence. The recent lynching at Houston is partly the cause.

TWENTY-NINTHYEAR
TILMAN'S STATE INDICTS LYNCHERS OF BLACKS
York, S. C.—When Rev. W T. Sims, a colored preacher of this place, advocated equal justice to all in the administration of the affairs of this country, referred to the deplorable Memphis lynching of a member of the race, and the East St. Louis barbarity of the whites there, other members of the race, inimical to his interest spread the news among the irate whites that he was encouraging disloyalty to the Government, and a mob of laboring men, under the pretext of upholding loyalty to the Government, attacked the conscientious preacher with the result that his death followed shortly after. The Grand jury in session here last week, after a thorough investigation of the charge of lynching returned true bills charging complicity in the lynching against Meek McGill, post master of Hickory Grove and Carson Lattimore, policeman of that place They were placed in jail and have made statements will incriminate certain Negroes with the lynching. The action of the state authorities in bringing to justice these officers is a source of favorable comment throughout the state. It is stated that the Government authorities have urged a larger investigation of the lynching and it is due to their efforts that these individuals were indicated.
Seventy Negroes, drawn from the various counties for service as a part of the first increment to the national draft army, will leave different points of the state Oct. 27 for Camp Funston. Word to this effect reached Provost Marshall John Evans yester day from Washington, and he immediately wired local boards to prepare the men for the trip.
Previous plans called for the dispatch of the Negroes to Camp Dodge in Iowa, where no white troops are stationed.
Fourteen of the Negroes will go from Pueblo and the remaining selected men from other counties.
Mr. Evans received word from Provost General Crow der yesterday that the follow ing appeals taken from the state appeal board for district No. had been denied: William Ira Pilcher and Jack C. Moonmaw, Boulder county; Ralph U. Crosby, Lincoln county; Clyde M. Winn, Morgan county, and Howard C. Schaefer, Phillips county.
Frank Buckner, Negro, the only Trainer of the Chicago White Sox, received $500 as gift from the team, when they won the world championship.
Editors's Note—The Government is about to commission several hundred colored men who have passed successfully through the reserve officers' training camp at Des Moines, Iowa. These men will be used in regiments made up of men of the same race. The colored soldier has long been recognized as a good fighting man and the records of the school promise well for his work as an officer. This interesting article deals with the work in the school.—Leslie's Weekly.
"And there will be some black men who can remember that with silent tongue, and clenched teeth, and steady eye, and well-poised bayonet, they have helped mankind on to this great consummation!"
With these resounding words of Lincoln still ringing as a slogan in the minds of sons and grandsons of slaves and freemen, on October 15 an event will occur of tremendous moment to the colored race in America. For the first time in the history of this country hundreds of the picked colored citizens of the United States will join the National Army as officers to lead colored troops. For the first time colored men will be viewed from a military standpoint on a plane of equality with commissioned officers of the regular army. This is one of the most significant innovations which the current conflict has created in American affairs. It is the greatest opportunity for social advancement which has ever come to colored men in America.
On June 18 at Fort Des Moines, Iowa, a reserve officers' training camp was opened exclusively for the benefit of colored men under the command of Col. C. C. Ballou, with Lieut. Col. Charles W. Castle as second in command and head of a staff of Regular Army instructors. Over two thousand colored men responded to this opportunity. They foregathered from every corner of the country. They were the leaders of their race, splendidly equipped men both mentally and physically. Doctors, lawyers, clergymen, architects, designers, civil engineers, college instructors, school teachers, college students and successful business men from every State in the Union applied for admission. They grasped eagerly the opportunity extended to them. For the privilege to serve they fairly glowed with a gratitude heart moving in its sincerity. Truly there is no color in patriotism.
Out of the whole number who applied for admission 1250 men ranging in age from 21 to 42 were accepted for military training. Forty per cent. of those accepted were found to be college graduates and the remainder were all well educated men. In the number were sixty teachers and graduates from Tuskegee Institute alone. Practically every high school and every college in America from Harvard to Leland Stanford was represented. In one squad of sixteen men alone were found four lawyers, one physician, one dentist, one architect, one electrical engineer, one city engineer, two clergymen, one railroad man holding a college diploma, one hotel waiter holding a high school diploma, and three students from the University of Iowa. Two hundred and fifty of the best educated men from the four Negro regiments of the Regular Army were included in the enrollment.
By the process of selective elimination the original enrollment of 1,250 was reduced to a little less than one thousand men. During the period of final examinations held the last week of August about 160 more of the least capable were weeded out. Many of these excused men were dismissed, however, not because of their failure to absorb the business of war, but for minor physical defects too slight to prevent their acceptance for the camp and too great to enable them to qualify for commissions. Thus over eight hundred conscientious and earnest Negroes remained, men of the highest moral integrity and the greatest mental aptitude, the greater number of whom were heartily recommended for commissions by the boards of officers who supervised the final tests The total number recommended will receive the cachet of military rank conferred by the U. S. Government. Colonel Charles Young, the only colored officer in the Regular Army, graduated from West Point in 1889 and now in command of the 10th U. S. Cavalry, addressed this body of colored reservists at Fort Des Moines recently. As he

Negroes given fighting chance to overcome prejudice in Army. Eyes of the world on American Negro Soldiers
looked over the stalwart, rugged fine appearing body of men of his own race his heart swelled
looked over the stalwart, rugged fine appearing body of men of his own race his heart swelled with conscious pride, for he felt that a great hour of victory was fast approaching in the social emancipation of his people. For nearly thirty years he himself had stood alone.
"The hour is arriving in which your qualities of leadership will be tested," Colonel Young told them. "A test of your character and worth as citizens as well as leaders is approaching. Tomorrow the eyes of the whole country will be upon you. Young will be given the chance not only of independent initiative to lead your own, to prove your valor and to do your duty nobly, but a chance to strive to do that duty as finely and as splendidly as any white man has performed his duty. Out of your number should spring a leader the country may well be proud of."
Camped in one of the most modern Regular Army posts the country, built less than ten years ago at a cost of nearly a million dollars, these colored reservists are enjoying an unusual privilege. They are housed in the regular barracks of the post. Transportation, uniforms, equipment, rations and $100 a month pay have been granted them. Camp was to have been broken up on September 15 after a period of three months of intensive training. But before that date arrived and after recommendations for commissions had
sive training. But before that date arrived and after recommendations for commissions had been made, the Secretary of War directed that the date of graduation be deferred until October 15, thus granting to colored reserve of ficers four additional weeks in drill and war games.
This extension of the period of training was decided upon because the full division of colored men drafted for service will not be mobilized until late in October. Furthermore, instead of concentrating the entire division by the War Department to as sign one regiment of colored troops to each of the sixteen infantry divisions called for training in the sixteen cantonments throughout the country Thus every cantonment will
eventually be the recipient of a regiment of drafted colored men under the command of eolored officers. Though seg regated from the white troops and housed in their own barracks, they will enjoy absolutely every privilege granted to regiments of white men in the same camp. It has been deemed both expedient and desirable to drill drafted colored troops in close proximity to white troops in order to bring about the most successful results.
The courses of instruction at Ft. Des Moines have been practically the same as those given in the sixteen training camps for white men. The original three months of intensive training consisted in instruction in the duties common to officers of all arms in infantry drill, physical drill, care of equipment, manual of bayonet, manual of saber, signaling and semaphore, musketry training, guard duty, organization of regiment and field service regulations. Every aspect of actual offensive and defensive modern trench warfare has been practically demonstrated. Trenches have been constructed and during the past few weeks of additional training detachments of men have taken their places daily in the dug outs and on the firing lines. Supply stations and hospitals have been constructed. A miniature camp paign with elaborate war maneuvers has been in progress.
The commandant, Colonel Ballou, now ranking as brigadier-general in the National Army, stated recently that "the spirit of the camp and the officers assigned to duty as instructors left nothing to be desired." The staff of West Point instructors on duty consists of selected officers who are pre-eminently efficient. The senior instruct or, Lieutenant Colonel Chas. W. Castle, now promoted to the rank of colonel in the National Army to command the 360th Regiment of Infantry, has had a remarkable experience. Keen, acutely intelligent, conscientious, capable to a degree, deliberate, cool, a man of poise and quiet power a stern disciplinarian, he is still patient, just, forbearing, human and paternally kind to those under his command No wiser choice could have been made to guide the training of colored men.
Early in September, 550 enlisted colored men were received at Fort Des Moines in a special hospital camp for the training of a Negro medical corps. The members of this corps, like the infantry officers, represent every section of the country. Among them are several hundred practicing physicians and a number of student doctors who originally enlisted in the officers' training camp but have been transferred to the corps.

CHURCH NOTES.
A congregation, the size of which
was hardly in keeping with the beau-
tiful weather, greeted the pastor last
Sunday morning. The subject, “Union
With Christ,”" was eloquent and
searching. As the shafts of living
truth, as liquid fire, reached the hearts
of the audience the result was convic-
tion. Seldom is our great congrega-
tion more visibly moved.
At the evening service the topic
was evangelistic and netted five souls
for the Kingdom: Sisters Minnie An-
derson, Edith Crump, Brothers T. B.
Mills, Jesse Terrell and John Waters
being those welcomed to the mem-
bership.
The pastor is now laying great
stress upon -attendance at mid-week
prayer meeting. The response for the
fall has not been quite up to the hope
or expectation. During these fine
evenings let us not forget to turn our
faces toward the House of God for an
hour's devotion. We look to see one
hundred present next meeting.
Especial mention is made of the
Laymen’s League which is meeting on
‘Tuesday nights and in which every
man should be enrolled. This is a
fine movement and looks eventually
to stirring men to their rightful part
in the Kingdom's enterprise. Breth-
ren, let's be present next Tuesday
night. We close at 9:15 sharp.
Every woman is welcomed to the
Bible Class for women on Thursday
afternoon at 2:30. When our people
more fully learn that their Christian
life and prosperity are bound up with
a knowledge of God’s Word, their
search after the truth will be instant.
A special meeting will be held next
‘Thursday afternoon to be addressed
by two speakers on National Food
Conservation. No woman can afford
not to be present.
Among our sick is numbered Sister
Willa. Epright, who returned from
New Mexico about ten days ago very
ill, She is now much improved. Sts-
ter Toombs is gaining in strength and
ig able to leave her bed. Brother Cur-
tis Harris is also recovering. The
friends may visit him at 2914 Califor-
nia street. Others who were reported
recently are convalescent. ~*

A PRAYER.
Let me do my work each day, and
it the darkest hours of dispair over-
come me, may I not forget the
strength that comforted me in the
desolation of other times. May I still
remember the bright hours that found
me walking over the silent hills of
my childhood or dreaming on the mar-
gin of the quiet river; when a light
glowed within me and I promised my
early God to have courage amid the
tempests of the changing years. Spare
me from bitterness and from the sharp
passions of unguarded moments. May
I not forget that poverty and riches
are of the spirit. Though the world
know not, may my thoughts and ac-
tions be such as to keep me friendly
with myself. Lift my eyes from the
earth and let me not forget the uses
of the stars. Forbid that I should
judge others, lest I condemn myself.
‘Let me not follow the clamour of the
world, but walk calmly in my path.
Give me a few friends that will love
me for what I am; and keep ever
burning before my vagrant steps the
kindly light of hope. And though age
and infirmity overtake me, and I come
not within the castle of my dreams,
teach me still to be thankful for life,
and for time’s olden memories that
are good and sweet; and may the
evening's twilight find me gentle still.

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 Congress-
man Dyer phoned me that the Com-
mittee was wonderfully impressed and
had decided to recommend that the
Resolution, begging Federal Inyesti-
gation be taken up by Congress. Now,
we must win. God wil help us if we
help ourselves. Keep at it! WORK!
PETITIONS! PETITIONS! PETI-
‘TIONS are the things that will prove
that there is county ie sentiment
and determination back of this de-
manding 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 protec-
tion. Will you get men to sign these
Petitions in ink, and you divide the
number and send them directly to
ihe 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 re-
flect the intelligence that there Is
back of this movement. Tell our peo-
ple to take pride and pleasure in this.
Get influential white friends to sign
some of them. Give them the liter
ature and urge them to see their pa-
triotic 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 let-
ter, telling him you know he 1s going
to hear the voice of his fellow coun.
tryman, pleading for justice and pro-
tection.” Make it bristle with patriot-
ism, but make him feel that this coun-
ey 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.
Yours for a True Democracy,

Dr. Moton and Others Tell at Hampton's Services How Late Head of Institute Strove to Serve Others—His Was Truly a Career of Accomplishment and Victory.
By WILLIAM ANTHONY AERY.
Hampton, Va.—Hollis Burke Frissell, beloved principal of Hampton institute for nearly twenty-five years, and Samuel Chapman Armstrong, his soldierly predecessor, now rest side by side, as once the loyalty worked by day and by night to give all men, regardless of class or race, a new conception of education, "education for life."
The funeral service, simple and impressive, which was held Wednesday. Aug. 8, in the Hampton Institute Memorial church and in the small school cemetery, in memory of the life and work of Dr. Frissell, brought together on the lower peninsula of Virginia hundreds upon hundreds of thoughtful white and colored people, who paid tribute to one of America's leading statesmen educators.
Dr. Moton's Tribute.
Dr. Robert R. Moton, Hampton's former commandant, present principal of Tuskegee institute, delivered a forceful address on Dr. Frissell's service to the nation. Dr. Moton said:
"This life which has gone out from us so recently is today manifesting itself in the acts and thoughts of other lives, of black men and red men and men of the white race also. I have never known and you have never known a more patient, a more simple, a more earnest, a more unselfish, a more Christlike character than Dr. Frissell. He was able, as no man I have ever known, to hide himself absolutely behind the great cause for which he worked. He thought nothing about himself, but he thought always of how he could serve.
"The keynote of Dr. Frissell's life was the note of service to one's race, one's country, one's God. It was not narrowed down to one or two races, but it included the human race—mankind wherever there was a chance to serve. Dr. Frissell's memory will always be revered by the millions of Negroes whom he helped and by millions of white people, north and south, through whom he served and by thousands of Indians for whom he worked.
Life of Victory.
"We should thank God for the great victory which is Dr. Frissell's and which is ours—the victory over prejudice, over selfishness, over littleness, the victory of patience, of simplicity, of life and of service. May those who are privileged to work for Hampton always be controlled, whether as true

tees, teachers, students, graduates or friends, by this spirit of unselfish service to our fellow men." Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones, specialist in the education of racial groups in the United States bureau of education, Washington, D. C., formerly associate chaplain at Hampton institute, read the prayer which Dr. Frissell himself offered less than two years ago at the funeral service of Dr. Booker T. Washington. "Thanks be to God, who giveth us the victory"—with these words Dr. Frissell opened the service held in memory of Hampton's most distinguished graduate. These words were repeated again and again as an expression of Dr. Frissell's victorious life.
Favorite Hymns.
The Hampton school sang with rare feeling two Negro religious folk songs—"Swing Low, Sweet Chariot," and "My Lord, What a Morning"-which were dear to the heart of Hampton's principal.
The Rev. Laurence Fennlinger read appropriate selections from the Scriptures, and the Rev. Dr. Herbert B. Turner offered the closing prayer at the church service. Scores of floral pieces covered the casket-mute witnesses of the affection of white and colored people. The flowers were carried from the church to the cemetery by Hampton graduates.
The funeral procession was headed by the well trained Hampton institute band. Then followed the Hampton cadets, the girl students, the funeral car, the flower bearers, officers of Battery D, Virginia field artillery and hundreds of Dr. Frissell's friends from far and near.
The service at the grave included the committment of the body by the Rev. Herbert B. Turner, prayer by the Rev. Laurence Fenninger and the singing of "My Faith Looks Up to Thee." "Taps" was sounded by Hampton's bandmaster, and again the battalion moved to the quickened step of martial music.
LOYAL IN PEACE AND WAR.
What a Northern Paper Says About the Colored American.
Commenting editorially on the protest of the colored citizens of New York against lynching the Newark (N. J.) Ledger in part says:
"The Negro has had ample cause for bitter complaint not alone because of the East St. Louis outrage, but also because of other outrages of which he has been a victim as a result of race prejudice.
"The American Negro has seldom been found lacking in courage and patriotism when called upon to serve the country. He is not found today among the disloyal, but, on the contrary, is ready and anxious to do his share to save for the world the freedom won for him by the Union armies fifty-five years ago.
"Despite many handicaps and drawbacks the Negro has steadily advanced from the lowly position he occupied before the civil war. There are exceptions, of course. There are the lawbreakers and the shiftless, but that is not a good reason for condemning the colored race as a whole and subjecting the innocent and law abiding colored man to outrage.
"The colored man has a place and an important place in our cosmopolitan population, and he is entitled to fair play and to all the encouragement and aid that can be given to him."

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 neither 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 image shows a large, flat, grassy area with a steep slope. The ground is covered in patches of grass and some areas appear to be bare. There are no visible buildings or structures in the immediate vicinity. The sky is dark, suggesting it might be nighttime or early morning. The terrain is relatively flat with some gentle undulations.
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 173½ 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 snow 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.

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.

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.
I am with you, as you can win only success. Yours truly,

WHERE THE STAR STANDS, AND WHO GOT THE MONEY?
The Star promised a prominent factor in the war council (Negro) that if
it did not/help the battalion it would not “knock” or fight the formation of the
battalion. We have earnestly endeavored to keep our promise and our word
as to the battalion. We have at all times and do now favor the battalion or
even the companies formed, but we did object then and do now to the recruit-
ing officer named. BUT WE KEPT SILENT UNTIL ADVERTISEMENT for
an event which afterwards turned out to be a dancé advertised “for the ben-
efit of the Colored Colorado battalion.” Then we asked that certain persons
whose past records for honesty, truthfulness, etc., be put in charge of the
handling of the money so that the money would finally go as advertised. We
drew fire from a masked enemy and after requesting a report from the spe-
clul private secretary and treasurer, we wrote to the Governor and asked him
to see that some kind of an itemized report be made of the $700 in gross taken
in and of the $400 expenses of that dance given at the Auditorium. As that
place was donated and as we understand half of Morrison’s Orchestra expense
and Queen City Band expense was donated, we are at loss to see how the $400
was used up in “expense” andwe gently but persistently asked about it so the
public could and would know. While we strenuously disagree with the Gov-
ernor in his appointment, yet we bow to his desire in silent protest, but we
did ask him and do ask him now to hold up his appointment until an item-
ized report of receipts and expenditures be made. Good, reliable information
has come to us that such men as Mr. Verner Z. Reed, Mr. Welborn, president
of the C. F. & I, andMr. FE. E. Stackhouse, besides many others, including some
banks and corporations, made certain donations. The Star only thinks it fs
fair and right since none of this money was handled by the advertised secre
tary and treasurer whose names appeared upon the circular letters, that the
names or the amounts be made public so that they might know that the Negro
appreciates their kindness and encouragement. As far as we know, none of
the companies received a dime of the money raised. Now, dear readers, we
haye been threatened with withdrawal of business support by some, loss of
personal friends whose judgments we appreciate and whose friendship is ten.
der to us, if we did not lay down or off” speaking of whom got the money. When
the itemized report is so that we can print it, as far as The Star {s concerned,
we are thru with that entertainment. But as long as the report is forthcom:
ing, so long will we dig and try to get the report. If this matter is passed by
unnoticed when the N. A. A. C. P. and the Club Home and Day Nursery will
have their affair, and ask the White public to respond, will not this have some
effect upon those who gave and did not see a report made as to how the money
was spent? ‘The Club Home and Day Nursery last year made a report to the
public in White papers; why did not these people?
Either the conduct and operations of the recruiting officer selected to
“raise” four companies of men and not to “raise” money by the “dance route”
4s right, just and proper, or {t is wrong and should be condemned. Either a
report should be properly made by the properly advertised officers supposed
to have handled the money or such a report to which the public was entitled
should not have been made. If the public was entitled to know who contri-
buted and how much, who spent it, who received the cash finally, then The
Star fs right in asking that such a report be made and not for some reason be
kept secret. If the abovevconditions are not true and correct, then Tho Star
is wrong and will frecly admit our mistake. We leave the matter for you to
judge, ‘who got the money?” And why all this commotion was made to know
who got the money?

SLOGAN—“STOP LYNCHING AND
MOB VIOLENCE BY LAW.”
AWAITING THE GOVERNOR'S
ACTION.
The Star announces that it has no
as yet received any accurate report
of that $700 in gross distributed ir
such a Way as to cause the public t¢
inquire, “Who got the money” from
the dance given under the guise of
a “grand ‘military reception” and
“drilling contest” for the “benefit of
the Colorado Colored Battalion?” We
have asked the Governor and General
Baldwin to defer all action in the way
of the appointment of Captain of the
recruiting officer until the accounting
is made. We think that not only Den-
ver is interested but that the State
of Colorado is vitally interested, who
collects money for one purpose and
uses it for another. Negroes of the
State of Colorado and Denver, do_you
really know what was said to Com-
missioner of Supplies Bailey to get
that great Auditorium free? Now will
you sit idly by and let a thing lke
that go without showing your disap-
proval? We have now and before now
called your attention to these matters
and if the Governor and General Bald-
win are willing to set thelr seal of
approval upon such actions by rati-
fying and confirming them by the ap-
pointment of him, as captain, The Star
is surprised and places the full re-
sponsibility upon them for such. acts.
We can see very little difference in
this case and in the Overmyer case.
The accounting in one case was de-
manded and certain action was taken
when it was not granted. The Star
thinks the principle of accounting is
the same in both cases. Therefore,
as we close, we ask: “How was that
$400 expense money” split and “who
really got the money and wants to
keep it from the public as a secret?
Somebody has fooled somebody, while
somebody got the money. If you want
to know who really handled and_got
the money ask the various officers?

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 administra.
tion that their services are not want-
ed. They have volunteered and have
been flatly turned down and must
wait until they are drafted. Amert-
cans 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 power‘ul enemy in
a ruthless war, let-us turn our minds,
hearts and activitiec to other voca-
tions {n lite. We know of no instance
that a Colored man or Colored com-
mittee or board has actually been
called into a council of war to par-
ticipate in the discussions of what the
vital needs and resources of his peo-
ple 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 indus-
tries, now and after the war. At
present he finds plenty of compara-
tively lucrative.employment which
might not last always. Never having
had the requisite knowledge of sav-
ing, 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 scien-
tific 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 condi.
tions will present themselves. In the
new shuffle the colored American may
find economic opportunities never pre-
sented before. But for him to take
advantage of those opportunities he
must have capital and business knowl-
edge. 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 direc-
‘tions. Keep moving; “Perge Modo;"
only go on conquering and making our
way up the hill.
Will any person knowing the where-
abouts of Mrs. Rose Young, formerly
of Elbert, Colo., please send such in-
formation to the Denver Star? An
inquiry has been made.

best workmanship on this contest

an education in the public schools in
the town where he was born. It was
in youth that his ability ax a leader
was demonstrated among the boys, and
during thelr play days be was often
selected as the professor of the school.
After completing the grammar grade
he went to work with his father on
the plantation. His first job from
home was at a sawmill, getting 90
cents a day.
It was while working in the mill
that he heard of Booker T. Washing-
ha :

{ ton and Tuskegee institute, and it came
to him that if a boy could get there,
whether he bad money enough or not,
he would be given an opportunity to
work bis way through school if he was
| industrious.
| He reached the Institution as green
as you could find a young man. He
| was a full grown man. He went be-
fore Professor Houston, who looked
| at this young man and then without
| examination assigned him to a prepar
atory class. This proved to be tov
high for him, but he told them if the.
would give him a few weeks he would
pull himself up to the class. ‘This was
granted him, and ft was soon discov
ered that he had not only worked him,
self up to the class, but was actually
in the lead.
At the close of school bis first year
he got a Job in Birmingham working
in the blast furnaces, which was too
much for him, for he was so anxious
eave: nbieea co leteraaael treed
ucation and finish at Tuskegee that
he did not eat sufficient food, and this
resulted in chronic indigestion, which
kept him out of school a whole year
It was after spending a year out of
school trying to regain his health that
he went to Tuskegee in the summer,
and in the three months in the summer
he made up the whole year's work.
It had never occurred to him that it
was a disgtace to be poor, especially
)when in pursuft of an education. He
‘often found ft necessary to borrow the
clothes of his roommate to keep up a
good appearance. Near the time of his
graduation he was back in his board
bill and was notified that unless his
board was paid tt would be necessary
for him to stay out of school. It was
then that his roommate suggested that
he write to a man in New, York who
would perbaps help him out. In re
sponse to a letter sent to New York
came a check for §50, which was a
loan.
He graduated and, having attracted
the attention of Mr. Washington dur-
Ing his school life by the delivery of
an address, was selected as fleld agent
for Tuskegee, which position he held
for four years, receiving high com:
mendation from Dr. Washington. Ie
was said to be the most successful
fleld ugent that was on the road for
Tuskegee Institute. He restgned the
position one year ago to accept the
principalship of Voorhees Normal and
Industrial school, which is a little
Toskegeo within itself, ‘The school
was founded by Miss Elizabeth Wright,
and at her deuth tt was presided over
by Professor Martin AJ Menafee, the
(®ensurer, who is still with the school.

FOR THE

| oof the United States that Ireland is a distinct nation, deprived of
her liberty by force and held in subjection by England by military
| swear slovec’ AsvAmerica has antered tho war: foc tne pteasrvation
of democracy and the freedom of small nationalities, this Govern-

of peoples held in subjection, whether they be under the jurisdic-

| holds from any nation the God-given right of freedom, the only final
i settlement must be the complcte independence of Ireland.
America has the right, by her entry into the wat, to demand it
from England, not in the Peace Conference at the close of the war,

We therefore respectfully urge upon the President and the Con-

(@ most inadequate. So long as the ele.
mentary school facilities are insufli-
cient every kind of education above
@ie elementary grade is seriously
handicapped and the well being of the
community is endangered. The possi-
bilities of night schools for adults
should receive serious consideration as
one means of overcoming the large
amount of Negro illiteracy
“Secondary Schools and Teacher
Training.—The primary !mportance of
secondary schools for colored people
lies in their contribution to the much
needed supply of trained teachers for
the elementary schools. According to
the state records, over 50 per cent of
the colored teachers in public schools
have an education less than the equiv-
alent of six elementary grades. This
lamentable condition can be corrected
only by a system of public secondary
schools with provision for teacher train-
ing, theory and practice of gardening
and manual training. Much effective
help could be obtained through the ac-
tive co-operation of the public sec-
ondary schools already organized. One
of the most hopeful movements toward
teacher training and secondary educa-
tion is the plan to multiply county
training schools.
“College and Professional Educa-
tion. —The education of Negroes in
America undoubtedly requires institu
tions that are genuinely of colleze
xrade. The first step in the realization
of this need is the agreement that all,
shall combine in an effort to develop
few well selected institutions. 4 pro-
gram for such a co-operation is sug-
gested in the chapter on ‘Colleze Ed-
ucation’ in this report. ‘The second re-
quirement of success in this direction
is the determination that every college
activity shall be adapted to the de-|
mands of modern society. Medical ed-
ucation is already centralized in two
institutions, so that those interested in
that profession may give their ald with- |
out question. It is highly desirable
that some co-operative effort shall also
be made to improve the standards ot
schools for colored ministers, No phase
of Negro education has been more neg-
lected. v
“Though there are a few very effec-
tive institutions devoted to the agricul-
tural and mechanical education of the |
Negroes, they really constitute only a |
beginning of the supply needed. The |
number of their graduates ts at pres:
ent only enough to prove the value of
the type. An adequate supply will be
possible only through the combined ef-
fort of public and private resources

PAUL MASSINGALE FREED.
Through the action of the District
Attorney, W. E. Foley, filing good and
sufficient reasons for dismissing the
assault to kill, assault to injure and
assault and battery cases, wherein a
soldier was the prosecuting witness
against Paul Massingale, he was dis.
charged and given his freedom without
a contest, This case has attracted
much attention because the defense
was self-defense in repelling an at
tack by a soldier who tried, in com-
pany with two others, to force Paul
to relinquish his seat to a white lady
Paul was the only Colored on the
car and one of the three soldiers in
an attempt to throw him off the car
because of his refusal to get up was
severely stabbed. At once the N. A

and succeeded in getting him out on

of the case, was assisted by Lawyer
