To the General Public:
We, the Afro-American Ministerial
Union Of Denver, Colorado, wishing to
make clear our position relative to the
Colored Orphans and Old Folks
Association of Colorado, now operat-
ing home for the care of orphans and
old folks in this city, now located on
Zuni street, in that part of the city
known as Jerome Park, take this meth
cd to set ourselves properly before
the public.
First-We wish to state that the
Ministerial Union has been besieged
and importuned from time to time to
take up this matter in our several
churches and give it our unstinted
support. The Union has been criti-
cized by both races for their seeming
neglect to cause so worthy, until we
decided finally to investigate the basis
of operating the Home and consider
the wisdom of supporting what
seemed to us to be private institu-
ton; this, together with some unsav-
ory remarks about the management of
the Home made it rather delicate
matter to consider. Mr.. w. R. Rhodes,
the manager of the Home, came before
the Union and made detailed state
ment, from which we CLEANED the fol
lowing facts: First, that the Asso-
citation is chartered under the name
and title mentioned above; second,
that the title and contracts to all real
ty holdings are vested in private indi-
viduals and not in the name of the
Association, as the general public has
been made to believe.
That there is need of such an insti-
tuition, no one of the Union doubts,
and hence they requested a conference
with the board of directors for the
purpose of hearing the charter read
and of understanding the relation of
the general public to the Association.
The time and place of the conference
was agreed upon, but neither the
manager nor any of the board of di-
rectors met the conference.
ne Ministerial Union was RELIABLY
informed that Mr.. w. R. Rhodes open
ly charged the Union with trying to
get possession of the name chattels
and real estate belongings of the prl-
vate individuals of the Association.
We take this method to inform the
public that the Union had no such de-
sires. We were only trying TO defend
the general public and see that their
charity was appropriated to the pur-
Iose for which it was intended
The Union now feels that if this is
a public institution, controlled. and
supported by the charity of the public,
there should be held public meeting
and the real condition of the institu-
tion made known, and we demand the
same.
REV. ]. S. PAYNE,
President.
REV. A. NJ. WARD,
Secretary.

TAFT AND SHERMAN CLUB TO
RATlFY.
Republican National Campaign Banner
to be Raised Early in Colorado by
Enthusiasts Unfriehtened by
"Dou DAYS."

Enthusiasts Unfriehtened by
DOG Days"
The early bird catches the federal
worm. The Colorado Taft and Sherman
Republican club will hold a ratification
meeting at the Coliseum hall on Mon
day night. This shows a good deal Of
courage in the dog days" but the
''old guard" is not to be feazed by
little warm weather. The club was
organized by A. NJ. Stevenson, d. c.
Bailey, George l.. Hodges, John A.
Holmberg, John W. Springer, Walter
B. Lowry and other Republicans. Mr..
Hodges is president and Mr.. Steven
son is the guiding spirit A number of
vice presidents, leading off with Sena-
tor Simon Guggenheim, have been
named. Each county is represented in
the vice presidential roster.
Among those who are expected to adj
dress the meeting on Monday night are
c. c. Hamlin of Colorado Springs, ]. w.
McCreery of Greeley, Mr.. Stevenson,
Mr.. Springer and President Hodges.
1t is evident that the promoters of
the club are determined to be in ahead
of everybody else in upholding the
| Taft-Sherman banner and this is all
right. A little rivalry in these dull
days will do no harm.
OF course every Republican is for
the presidential and vice presidential
candidates and for the whole state and
local tickets. This is a presidential
year. AS an auxiliary to the Republi-
can state organization the club can be
of good service.-Denver Republican.

JAPAN Will NOT
fight UNCLE sam

An exceedingly interesting and in.
structive address on the relations Of
japan and the United States was Civ.
en- before the Ministerial Union this
forenoon by Rev. J. II. De Forrest,
DID,, Christian worker of thirty.four
years standing IN Japan, whose mt.
mate acquaintance with most of that
country's foremost military men and
diplomats places him in a position to
speak NTH authority.
TIC speaker brought out very
Strongly the point that Japan feels
more friendly towards the United
States than towards any other nation,
not even excepting her ally, England,
and that the rumors that Japan was
contemplating war against America
were absurd. The reason for Japan's
friendship he gave as follows: the fact
Japan peacefully, while any other ma
ton under similar circumstances
would have used force: the magnifi.
cent line of diplomats who had been
maintained by the United States at
Toxic, whgere they had often prevent.
ed other powers from taking agrees.
sive steps: the fact that thousands of
| Japanese who had been educated In
the United States, felt friendly to.
wards that country on account of kind.
" treatment received there: that the
United States was the only country
which had ever returned an indemnity
to Japan; the sympathy shown by tho
United States during the war with
Russia; the prompt relief which came
from the United States during the
| time OF famine which succeeded tho
wor; and finally because the United
States was the first nation to recog.
nize the right of Japan in Korea.
DIR. De Forrest spoke strongly on the
attacks made by Representative Hob.
son on Japan. II was amazed at the
delugc of malicious SANDER circulated
against Japan, he said. especially
were the attacks of Hobson the sill.
