WEIGHED IN THE BALANCE.

One of our journal subscribes to
the opinion that the Negro does
not deserve all that he thinks he
ought to have. 1t points out that
he does not save his earnings; he
IS not careful to impress the world
that he belongs to the highest type
of man.
The paper thus supports our the

race press and race pulpits at the
present time is to make war upon

SENSATIONAL LEADERS.

The colored people of Denver
could do without sensationalists in
any line. A sensation loses its
force as soon as it becomes known
that there is no reality behind it,
and the perpetrator of sensations
becomes ignored and despised, as
soon as it is learned that his bold
pretensions are merely skin-bound
infiations which the prick of a pin
will cause to collapse. Sensational
leadership is one of the dangers
menacing the welfare and the ad-
vancement of the Negro. There
are number of men and women
scattered over the state who have
been blessed with intellect, but, un-
fortunately, overbalanced with ego
tism, who are continually striving
to spring some desperate idea or
movement affecting the race and its
oti uSSito, WHICH, Will lOT OQce, dU
least, startle somebody and draw
attention to its projectors, such are
those who advise desperate meas
ures in retaliation for conditions
that arise in the city; those who ad-
vocate the protection of the indi-
vidual charged with crime, regard
less of his guilt; and those who
would annihilate prominent mem
bers of the race who do not choose
to be identified with every doubt
full project inaugurated in the name
of the race. Every man should be
allowed to go about his business
in his own way and when it comes
to the business of the public or the
race, the last man to be followed
or trusted is the one who would
pass censure upon others greater
than himself, because they can not
bring their superior talents and
achievements down to his level of
sensational conceit. The race can
well spare the misplaced fervor and
brilliant egotism of its sensational
leaders.

Every peg in the Roosevelt Cab
met fills the hole tight. They are
all big, brainy men, thoroughly
representative Americans. They
are all self-made men, famous in
their homes for their clear-headed-
ness and exceptional professional
or business attainments. The ship
of state was never safer than with
its present crew.
The Colorado statesman., 1905-07-29

No Republican in Colorado can
afford to repudiate the Roosevelt
railroad regulation policy. If this
policy is not carried out by the
Republicans it will be by the
Democrats to the detriment of
both the railroads and the state.

ling extent, our race is abusing the
liberties which it already possesses.
We sincerely believe that if all of
the serious minded and therefore
really deserving Negroes of Colo
RADIO (and there are many such)
would make up their minds, as an
essential to self preservation and
race salvation, to mercilessly corf-
demn and constantly oppose the
wanton vice and general unworthi-
ness inherent in all of our conduct,
there would be a vast improvement
IN the race in the next year. We
have many good traits and some
Negroes are doing exceptionally
well, but it is the general condition
to which the newspapers are calling
attention. The white man is max
ing war upon the Negro in many
insidious ways, and in some in
stances we are losing ground, he
cause we are unable and unfit to
hold it. As the newspaper points
out, it is not sufficient ground for
total discouragement, that we are
being deprived of guaranteed
rights, for this is world in which
men and races are compelled to de-
serve and defend what they pos
sess and hope to enjoy. The Negro
who stops for moment to contem-
plate the vast amount of earnest
and determined energy which the
white man is expending in Colo
RADIO to advance his standing and
maintain his supremacy individ-
ually and nationally, will practi-
cally realize that the Negro has got
to wake up or practically get out
of Denver. The white man is not
going to carry the Negro up with
him. There are no indications that
he takes any such charitable view
of what he calls the "white man S
burden. - The Negro has got to
get up and hump" swim or sink.
We are living too easy. We are
not serious enough. Our play
hours are too long, our business
hours too short. We are too mar
row in our vision and too wise in
our ignorance. We have got to get
down upon a more simple and
therefore a more stable foundation.
Money saving and industrial activ-
ity, clannish support of race enter
prises, honest business and stern
determination to promote fairness,
encourage virtue and to condemn
and punish vice, depravity, profit
gacy and all the weak and unwor-
thy characteristics which we have
been covering up and tolerating are
imperative duties whose neglect
condemns us all How are these
principles to be instilled into the
minds of the people? That is a Sc
rious question. We believe it de-
pends upon those already of So
ber turn of mind. The complaints
of the press or of individuals can
do no good unless some action is
aroused. The remedy does not lie
in big, snowy conventions, where
men display their oratory and their
poverty. 1t is a matter for COM
munities to take up. The sober
men and women who think of these
things should get together and
plan. Cooperation, not in a sin
gle business effort, but in the sup
port of enterprises already estab-
lished or to be started, would be a
thing worthy of long discussion and
earnest trial. Educate and elevate
the social and business ideas of the
people, and lead and teach them by
the most practical and worthy of
examples.

KIND HUSBANDS a FAlLuRE
Recent Events Seem to Tend Toward
Such Conclusion.


Within year there have been sew
eral suits for divorce brought by wlve
who have complained that their only
reason for wishing release from the
bonds Of matrimony was that THEN
husbands were too kind, permitting
them to have their own way at all
time, and seeking to crafty and not
deny or defy their whims and ca
prices. The most recent case was re-
ported few days ago, when bride
OF three months returned to the home
of her parents. That man could be
too kind to his better half has been
regarded by some persons as new
idea. but 1t is not.
The views of many OF these women
were expressed by one of the char
acters in Captain Marryat's "Midshp-
man Easy" published in 1886. Don
Rebeira says:
MY mother had but to speak and
every wish was granted; refusal
was unknown. You may say: What
could she want more? l reply that
anything to a woman Is preferable to
Indifference. The immediate consent
to every wish took away, in her opin-
ion, all merit in the grant. The value
of everything Is only relative. and in
proportion to the difficulty OF obtain
Ing 1t. The immediate assent to ev-
cry opinion was tantamount to in
suit; it implied that he did not choose
to argue with her.
ut Is true that women like to have
their own way, but they like at the
same time to have difficulties to sur
mount and to conquer Otherwise
half the qualification is lost Although
tempests are to be deplOred. still Il
certain degree Of oscillation and mo-
ton are requisite to keep fresh and
clear the lake of matrimony. the wa
tiers of which otherwise soon stagnate
and become foul. and without some
contrary currents Of opinion between
n married couple such s,agnation must
take place"

say in favor Of the strenuous as
