Booker T. Washington Addresses the
Denver Teachers Club.

The members of the Denver Teach
ers' Club, who heard the address de-
livered by Booker T. Washington yes
terday afternoon, are now able to un'
derstand why many capable judges
consider the great Negro the foremost
of American educators. The big audi
ence, which filled every seat in the
auditorium of the East Side High
school and many of whom stood dur
ing the entire address, was held for
nearly an hour to the closest atten-
ton, not by the eloquence of the
speaker, for Mr.. Washington is not an
eloquent speaker, but by the fact that
a man who had a mission and who be-
lieved in his mission was pouring out
his very soul for their benefit.
After listening to an address by
Booker T. Washington. 1t is hard to
believe in the existence of the Negro
problem. Any open-mindcd person
who listens to the plans which this
man has evolved for the uplift of his
race, who sees what broad, clear
minded view he takes of the Negro
question and how readily he admits
that ultimate settlement of the prob
lem rests not with the white but with
the black race, cannot but feel that
were Booker T. Washington a type,
and not an exception, there would in
deed be no Negro question to settle.
Industrial Education" was the sub
ject of Washington's address and the
lesson he had for the teachers was
the study of things as we'll as of
books" Although the illustrations
used and examples of results cited
by the speaker were all taken from
his school at Tuskegee, the impression
nevertheless was conveyed to the au-
ditors that as far as educational meth
DDS are concerned there is much to
learn from Booker Washington, who
saw the great need of his people along
educational lines and started out to
provide for that need by establishing
an educational institution which is to-
day the model industrial school Of the
world

We have heard the most construc-
tive lecture ever delivered in Denver,
and we should not discuss it to death,
but act at once on the inspiration OF
DR.. Booker T. Washington's advice.
There are 10000 Negroes in Denver,
and if each should subscribe for 10
shares of The Negro Townsite and
Land Company's stock and pay one
dollar down, and one dollar monthly
for nine months, in less than 80 days
DR.. Washington's advice would be in
action, and the foundation for the fu-
ture of our children, now in the pub
lie schools, would be. laid.
Let every Negro who subscribed to
the capital stock of The Negro Town
site and Land Company's stock come
forth and make good his subscription
and let us get busy, as the opportunity
is passing.

COMPANY.

custom for the bridegroom to pay
sum to the brides parents, and in
case the parties cannot agree the

WOMEN FEAR TO

Interurban Depot Assembly
Place for Large Number
Of Drunken Men.
The POLICE ARE CENSURED
THE POLICE ARE CENSURED
THESE INTOXICATED LOAFERs
ARE PERMITTED TO LEER At
PASSING WOMEN AND ADDRESS
INSULTING REMARKS.

Residents of South Eighth street,
especially women, who are in the habit
{ using the street as thoroughfare
after night, have complaint to make
against the police and the traction
authorities for allowing drunken men
to leer around in front of the station
after night awaiting for an interurban
car to take them home. The practice
has become rather prevalent of late
and while it is not especially danger
Gus for women to pass such men in
this condition, it is very annoying.
1t is believed that the scenes around
the station will even be worse after
the expulsion of the saloon in Preble
county, January Is.
Last evening particularly striking
instance of such an occurrence took
place about O'Clock. One lonely
drunkard was standing in front of
the station SO drunk that he could
hardly stand still, while leaning
against the building. Two women
came past the station and the man
stumbled out toward them. Had 1t
not been for a man appearing on the
spot almost Immediately. 1t is probable
that trouble would have resulted.

President elects Only Com
ment on Withdrawal Of
Brother Charles.
SEES A POLITICAL CHANGE
INDEPENDENCE OF ACTION TO
BE ENCOURAGED ~ REPUeLi-
CANS AMONG THE DEMOCRATS
IN THE SOUTH.

Augusta, Ga, Jan. beyond the
remark that the withdrawal Of Charles
p. Taft from the senatorial contest In
Ohio in favor Of Theodore r. Burton,
was a move in the interest of party
harmony. President-elect Taft would
say nothing on the subject. It was.
he said, q matter regarding which any
statement made should naturally come
from his brother Charles P.
Another conference was held yester-
day at the Taft cottage on the subject
OF the best means to take advantage
at the proper time OF the real senti
ment in the South which favors q po-
litical change. Charles H. Sheriff.. of
the National Business Mems league. OF
New York, was one OF the conferees,
while Messrs. Taft, Hammond and
Hitchcock were the others. This
statement was dictated by Mr.. Taft in
tho presence OF the conferees, and Is
given to the public as showing the ex-
act situation with reference to the mat
ter:
THE conference between Mr.. Taft
and Messrs. Hammond, Hitchcock and
Sheriff. in reference to the action to
be taken with view to the organiza-
ton Ct the real sentiment in the South
In favor Of q political change in that
section resulted satisfactorily in a
plan agreed upon by all parties.
1.-THE republican organization is to
be maintained in all the states and eff
forts made to increase the ranks OF the
republican party as fully as possible.
With the purpose. however, of secur-
ing the assistance of those who do not
desire to ally themselves with the re-
publican party as republicans, but only
wish to act Independently Of the DEM
ocratic party in national campaigns, 1t
was thought best to secure the names
of those who would take charge of this
Independent movement In each state
with a view to their subsequent organ
ization at time when such political
action would be opportune.
THE impression which has gone out
that in the previous conference any OF
the conferees were in favor of giving
up the movement was erroneous. The
question what names clubs to be or
ganized in the future should bear Is
q mere matter of detail, in respect te
which no decision was reacher."
Henry w. Taft is here from New
York, for few days Of golf. The
president-elect admits that his brother
who is two years his junior, is the bet
ter player, but in saying SO he adds
that when playing with him, ''Harr,
always plays like a professional"

Don't Blame
Your Stomach
When Without Exertion Or Cost You
Can Enjoy Meals And Cure
Dyspepsia.

Don't blame your stomach or your
luck when your meals declare war on
your system.
When the stomach won't do it's
work IL is because it cannot.
When foul smelling odors come from
your stomach. when the head aches
and the sourness of mouth every morn
ing makes you hate your breakfast,
when dreams and nightmare assail
you, don't give up the fight.
This is the appeal of nature, and 1t
should be heard.
Over-eating, late suppers, poorly
chewed food. too rich pastries and un-
der-done cooking are some of the caus-
es of the stomach's ill health.
When the stomach is busy it press
es and churns all the liquid matter
from food and with it's juices dissolves
into liquid form or pulp everything
which comes into it.
If such food be poisonous it effects
the juices. attacks the stomach, goes
into the blood and weakens the entire
system.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will di-
gest a full meal easily without mater
ial assistance from the stomach. They
will restock the gastric fluid with all
the clements needed. They build up
the blood. destroy sour taste, bad
breath. belching. stomach and bowel
trouble and quickly restore natural
conditions.
One grain Of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab.
lets will digest 1000 grains of food in
the stomach or in glass vial without
aid Of the human digestive apparatus
The method Of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets are the methods Of Nature.
They contain every requisite for the
stomach and digestion. After a meal
one of these little tablets when it en-
tiers the stomach mingles with the
juices, attacks the food and digests it
It removes the fermented and decayei
mass. lying stagnant there and eases
