MOST DESPERATE
FOOTBALL GAMF !
OF The StAy
Will be Played Saturday Where Salem ;, !,
High Schools Meet to Settle an Oh p;s.'. -

On Saturday tomorrow the bi,
annual football contest between Sa
lem and Eugene high schools takei
place In this city on Willamett,
field. This game marks the climax
toward which both of these teami
have been working since the openinl
of the season. No doubt the larg
est crowd will be out Saturday tc
see this game that has been out for
number of years. The Salem high
school students are preparing to 20
on masse and occupy a section of
the grand stand. A good rooters'
club has been organized which will
back their team to the finish.
Eugene high school is running an
excursion for the game, and over
100 visitors are expected to accom-
pany their team, also with an organ
lied rooters' club to vie with the Sa-
lemites.
This game has been firmly estab-
lished as an annual affair, and the
big game of the season for these two
leading Willamette valley high
schools. In previoas games Eugene
seems to have been a triffe in the
lead, but neither team has ever de-
featad the other OF their home
field. In 1905 the two teams played
a tie gsrme in Saleml. and later In the
season Eugene won at Eugene. In
1905 Srlem won at Salem, and aspiin
later were defeated aT Eugene LAST
year Ebgene carried on the victory
on the Eugene field. and tomorrow
will tell what the 1908 score will be.
These scores show honors divided
pretty evenly.

have the strongest team they have
ever turned out. They have lind

NEGROES AT THE STATE FAIR.

Among the exhibitors were Jno
d. Reeler, of Mason City, who
showed some very fine poultry; W.
M. jackson, of Fremont, Neb., who
had three splendid speed horses
Prof. Charles Glover, of Spring
field, ILL.,, who had three beautiful
High School saddle horses; Thos.
Bass, of Mexico, Mo, who had a
whole stable full of some of the
finest bred horses ever exhibited
on the grounds, nine head in all,
including every class from ordinary
roadster valued at $500 each to the
highest GRADE Of High School
horses valued at $1,000 each, and
last but by no means of least i'm
portance by way of demonstrating
the remarkable Advancement the
race is making, Henry Taylor, of
Buxton, had On exhibition hand
carved wooden images of Booker
II Washington, Paul Lawrence
Dunbar, Abraham Lincoln and
number of others of the great men
of our nation. Unquestionably
the greatest amount of money was
represented by the exhibits of Mr.
Bass, which were estimated as be-
ing worth over $4,000, and with
which, out of fifteen entries. he
won ten firsts, four seconds and
one third prize, and still complain
ed that he had not received all he
was entitled to. Truly the Negro

some before deciding to cast his
lot with his new found friends" in
this campaign and on the coming
election day. This slipping loose
of tire mask in West Virginia gives
a glimpse Of the true Democratic
attitude toward him that surely
will keep the Negro from falling
into the trap that has been set for
him. Everything the Negro has
in the way of civil rights came
to him from the Republican party.
TO that party he must look for
anything that is to come to him in
the future. The Democratic party
has done nothing for him but to
kick him and defraud him at ev-
cry turn of the road. The hairy
hand which sticks out in West
Virginia is sufficient evidence
that there is TO be no change in
the party policy.-Exchange.

MASONS
TO BUILD TEMPLE

The project of erecting Mason
ic temple in Boston which has
been under consideration for two
year by the colored Masons of the
state, received an impetus by a
proposition that colored Masons
all over the country contribute to-
ward its expense, and erect it as a
memorial to Prince Hall, the
founder of Masonry among people
in this country.
This suggestion was made by
Col. James Lewis of New Orleans
at a meeting of grand lodge officers
of about % colored Masonic ur-
isdictions at the home of William
Lloyd Marshall, grand master of
Prince Hall grand lodge in New
tonville.
Col. Lewis said: while there
is "a monument over the grave of
Prince Hall at Copps Hill burying
ground, still this monument was
not erected by the colored Masons
of the United States; it was erect
ed by Prince Hall grand lodge of
Massachusetts. One hundred years
have passed since the first Negro
grand lodge of Masons was estab-
lished in this country, and we ask
you Massachusetts craftmen to let
us in on the S1C0,000 building
proposition, and we will send you
the money to build it, and if that
is not enough money we will send
you more, as the tribute of colored
Masons all over the country"
At the conclusion of this address
the matter was carefully discussed
with the result that the gaand Off
GERS present agreed that immediate
ly upon their return home they
would lay it before their several
Jurisdictions so that within a year
work can be commenced upon a
permanent structure for regular
colored Masons in Massachusetts.
A site is already under considera-
ton.
Past Grand Master Boyd of
Cleveland, Ohio submitted prop
osition that each jurisdiction be
asked to send a stone block to

THE HAIRY HAND.

The insincerity of the Demo
Gratis in their play for the Negro
vote is well illustrated by the
platform of their party in West
Virginia.
"We favor" say the West Vir-
ginia Democrats, 1.-The enactment
of law requiring common carriers
engaged in passenger traffic to
furnish separate coaches or CON-
partments for white and colored
passengers.
This is the jim-crow proposition
in all ite original splendor.
But this is not a marker to what
follows. Continuing, the West
Virginia platform says: "Believ-
ing that the extension of the cleo
tive franchise TO a race inferior in
in telligence and without prepara-
ton for the wise and prudent ex-
ercise of a privilege so vital to the
maintenance of good government,
was a mistake, if not crime com.
mitted by the Republican party,
during the reign of passion and
prejudice following the civil war,
for political ends and purposes,
we declare that the Democratic
party is in favor of so amending
the constitution as to preserve the
purity OF the ballot, and the cleo
torate of the state from the evil re-
suits from comforting such power
and privilege upon those who are
untitled to appreciate its impor-
tance, as it affects the stability
and preservation of good govern
ment."
There is about this one COM
mendable feature. 1t is honest.
Here are expressed the true senti-
ments of the Democratic party
with respect to the Negro. The
colored man will do well to ponder
The Colorado statesman., 1908-10-03

The Rev. Lena Mason, a colored
woman preacher, who through her
preaching at the Parkside avenue
Jumbo" tent caused a split
among the Negro Baptist preach
ers of the city, collected SlA,7S0
during her mopth of services.
This is the total amount which
was deposited in bank from day to
day, and which during the last
week was divided between Mrs.
Mason and the Rev Chas. Black
well, who brought her to this city
to conduct his Chautauqua meet
ings. Mr. Blackwell is the pastor
of the Central Baptist Church,
Twenty third and Lombard streets.
Because Mr.. Blackwell allowed
Mrs. Mason to preach under his
auspices lie was expelled from the
Baptist Minister'S Union of this
city, which, does not recognize
women as ordained ministers.
Mrs. Mason came here from Louis
vile, Ky. AT the time of his ex-
plusion Mr.. Blackwell declared
that he was not at all disturbed
over the matter. He is one of the

North. Perhaps he even now has
an embryonic plan. If he has set
his heart to this task it would ex-
plain many things that have SEEM
ed inexplainable in the past. 1t
is certain the country would eager
ly receive any project he might
unfold, and if it appeared he had
found the solution untold resources
would be at his command. The
Carneeies and the Rockefellers
would be shown a use for their
millions that would make the
building of libraries and the en-
dowing of universities seem fool
ish things. There are many Ne
gro leaders who are just as an
xious for a solution of the race
problem as any white men, and
upon the cooperation of these Mr..
Roosevelt could count, provided he
evolved a plan that promised So
luton without injustice to the Ne
gro. 1t goes without saying Mrs
Roosevelt would not seek injustice
to the Negro.
There never was a time when a
greater task awaited the coming
of a man. 1t Mr.. Roosevelt has
in mind that he may be the man
awaited, he will find his fellow
country-men eager to give him a
trial.

ROOSEVELT
May Seek Some Solution of the Race Problem at the
Fountain Head Study Negro in Mid Africa
Door of Hope Now Closed.

there is ever the dread prospect of
race conflict, the cruelist, most
ruthless warfare man ever engages
in. The best of the Negroes do
not aspire to social equally. To
this the white man especially the
white man of the South, will not
concent. Nor, is denial of politi-
cal equality confined to the South.
In the s,orth the Negro may vote
and hold minor offices, but Mass
achusetts, nor Ohio, nor Montana
would suffer Negro to be COVER
nor nor send him to the senate of
the United States. The Negro
enjoys rudimentary political rights
in the North because he is not
there in sufficient numbers to con-
stitute a political menace. If he
were there is no reason to doubt
that Massachusetts would go as
far as Mississippi in determination
to prevent political domination by
the Negro. No thinking man
blames the Negro for desiring po-
litical equality. Thousands of
them are educated and honest and
much more worthy of enfranchise-
ment than thousands of white
men who enjoy full political rights.
There are scores of Negroes equip
ped in mentality and character to
fill the highest places in the land.
Legally and theoretically they have
just as much right to political per-
ferment as the white man. Prac-
tically the Negro is an outcast and
an alien, and will always be. 1t
was President Roosevelt who de-
clared the door of hope should not
be closed to any man because of
his race or color. He made some
unfortunate attempts to live up to
his declaration, but in his heart
he knows that in America the
door of hope is closed to the man
in whose veins flows the tainted
blood of Africa. And he knows
that it ever will be closed.
When Mr.. Roosevelt made his
rash attempt to compel the South
to accept the Negro as political
equal he was unripe in statesman
ship and probably had given little
thought to Americas greatest prob
lem. That he saw the impossible
ity of his course is evidenced by
his having abandoned it. The
South resented his early program
and denounced him as a meddler
Is it possible the implusive med
dler with a thing he did not un-
derstand may be the Moses who
will lead the way to light? There
are not lacking evidences that for
the past three or four years Mr.
Roosevelt has been at work on the
problem. He has conferred with
Negro leaders, with southern white
men and with thinkers of the
