THROUGH THE SILVER SAN JUAN

Durango, Oct. 27.-William Jen-
nings Bryan took the San Juan coun-
try by storm today. Wherever he
spoke all business was suspended,
schools We're dismissed and there was
a general outpouring of the people.
Whatever their political pursuasioa
may have been, there was only one eX-
preston, and that was one of large
undeniable heartiness in the reception
of Colonel Bryan and of all that he
said. Throughout the day the Lord
of Life beamed brightest benedictlons
on Colonel Bryan's itinerary, and to
see the leader standing with barred
head in the sunlight his strong intel
ligent face doubly illuminated from
the light within and from the burn
ing son was an inspiration to behold
him. His speeches everywhere We're
marked by that charming yet lofty
simplicity characteristic of the man.
Whoever heard him understood.
For the few minutes allowed him
each address was remarkably inclus-
i've. He went to the quick heart of
every vital issue. He was vivid, de .
finite and satisfactory. On whatever
he touched his position was ultimate,
conclusive absolute. In whatever

place in this wonderland of nature
there was in the man greatness tai
lying to the grandeur of the scenery;
not that he is a deity to be worshiped
but that he is a man to be admired,
honored and respected as woman
might be loved.
Louis X. Kossuth fought and lost :;
his sword was surrendered and the
flag of lost cause laid down. Kos
suth lived on, the same splendid gen
eral in the love OF his people and the
admiration of the world. William
Jennings Bryan fought. not for Bry
an, but for the people, against the
money kings. He was delayed, not
defeated; his war and the war of the
people goes gallantly on. A skirm-
ish may be lost but the ultimate out
come is certain. He will fight with
theshilt when the sword is broken,
and he will live, as the peoples cause
will live. when all who fight today
shall sleep in the dust of their armor.
Under the circumstances, said SEN

Herbert J. Butzow, of Chicago is
the name of the man who appears
above. He is riding from New York
to San Francisco, on wager with the
Monarch bicycle people, for $500. He
started without money and is earning
his way across the continent. doing
trick bicycle riding.
This morning on Fourth street But
zow gave an exhibition of trick riding
which was a revelation to many peo
pie. He did marvellous things, such
as anyone would have thuoght impos
sible to do with a wheel.
This afternoon he again gave an
other exhibition to much larger
crowd than he had this morning and
what he did in the line of bicycle
riding was wonderful indeed.
Butzow dresses like tramp and
his make up is a wonderful one.

HUMAN RIGHTS PARAMOUNT.

The speech of Gen. Dyrenforth be-
fore Bethel Literary Society Tuesday
evening was the ableSt utterance from
a Caucasian that has been heard upon
local rOstrum in many moons. The
General was a soldier, and a good
one, too, and his theme bore upon the
splendid work of his Negro comrades,
paying an unqualified tribute to their
courage and patriotism. He took the
ground that the highest law Of our
land was the Constitution, and that
the federal government had a perfect
right to intervene when the explicit
provisions of that document were open
ly violated by any state. He explained
that the object of the Union Veterans
Union, of which he Is commander-in-
chief is to mass the soldier vote on
the side of fair play for all citizens,
and secure to-day by the ballot the
results that were fought for by bullets
in the late rebellion. The address
indicated that there are true white
friends left who have the manhood
to speak out against oppression, and
the tenor of the talks following 1t
showed the the Negro himself was
being aroused to action. The race
should see to it that only the staunch
advocates OF pOlI1cdI anu civil equality
are allowed to set foot in the halls of
Congress in such districts as we are
able to determine the result. The par
amount issue with us is not tariffs,
trusts nor monetary standards is
human rights, pure and simple. We
need a few patriots like Gen. Dyren-
forth on guard at the Capitol. Will
the Negro voters of the North be
watchful enough to find them and elect
Of party, clique or
clan? Now is the races opportunity.
Pledge the republican candidates for
Congress in your district to vote for
remedial legislation for the righting
of our wrongs-or search out some
body who will serve your purpose. The
Union Veterans Union are on the
winning scent.

CAUCASIAN CHRIsTIANITY-BAH!

Religion, or more strictly speaking,
christianity, is at a discount in the
classic city of Baltimore. The aristo-
cratic First Presbyterian Church of
that place, for two years past has had
a singer in the choir, a Miss COnstan-
tina Brown, whose sympathetic voice
was greatly admired, and her interpre-
tation of sacred music caused many
lofty heads to bow in feTyent prayer.
She came and went quietly, conducting
herself in all respects as a perfect
lady of culture and refinement All
was well-untiI a Tumor was sent
afloat that she had a few drops of
Negro blood in her veins, that she was
tie daughter of Rev. H. ]. Brown and
a teacher in a colored public school.
This. being confirmed upon inVestiga-
ton, made all the difference in the
world. and Miss Brown hau to go. The

SATURDAY. OCTOBER a5, 1909
AT THE HEAD OF THE CLASS.

For upwards of ten years The Col
ored American has enjoyed a prosper
Gus existence in the city of Washington,
Sailing has not at all times been as
plain as we would like it, but the
cheerful support of friends, the sub
stannal aid of many patrons, and our
admitted excellence by enemies have
combined to make our lot quite
happy one.
We have chosen to conduct a clean,
wholesome and up-tO-date newspaper,
free from abuse, scandal and petty
personalities-one that could be read
with profit in the family circle, and be
as interesting to the denizen of far
away Vladivastock as the resident of
Washington and America.
The Colored Americans scope is both
national and local-giving each it's
proportion, and aims to perform as
best it can, the function of both the
newspaper and the magazine. It's opin-
ions upon men and issues are fresh and
fearless, and it is too independent in
tone to be considered a party organ,
standing up at all times for the best
interests of the whole people. We
prefer to look upon the bright side Of
things. and as a means of inspiring
each week to present a record of the
achievements of one or more Negroes,
who have won distinction in some
useful calling. The popularity of this
feature is a proof that it is appreciated
by those capable of forming an un-
biaseC. estimate of its value. That our
success has evoked admiration is elo-
quently attested by complimentary
letters from all quarters of the globe:
that it has provoked some jealousy
and not a little envy among small
critics here and there occasions no sur
prise. as fault-finders and pull-backs
are found in high and low places, and
strong and continuous campaign Of
education will be necessary to bring
them up to the proper standard OF
thought and morals.
Little is to be expected of the really
ignorant, but the presumably intelli-
gent persons who permit their malice
to overthrow their judgment, are with
out excuse for their attitude toward
progressive journalism of The COlored
American type. A notable case in
point may be found in a Georgia news
paper. from the pen Of a Washington
correspondent, who has for years been
a beneficiary of The Colored Ameri-
cans generosity. and whose present
ingratitude causes temporary wonder

SURGICAL TRIUMPH.

For probably the first time In the his

operation. The patient lost both the up.
per and lower eyelids In burst Of
fame. The accident left both eyeballs
entirely unprotected, and there was
grave danger Of the patient losing his
sight.
The case was brought to the atten-
ton Of Dr. Thomas several months ago.
and he ut once began the attempt to
graft four new eyelids. The skin used
for the grating was taken from the
hip OF the patient.
1t was necessary to proceed slowly.
but the experiment was successful from
the start. Today the patient has -four
new eyelids, which perform the normal
Iunctlons nOtufAly.
The case has attracted widespread
interest among medical men. A lead
Ing ophthamOlogist snid that while eye
lid CHATTING was not new operation,
this was the first time. NO far as his
knowledge went. that an entire set had
been replaced successfully.
The chief danger In the loss OF the
