Why Colorado Should Send Hon. l.
N. Stevens to Congress.

A congressional nomination very
gratifying to friends of just and
progressive government Is that OF
Hon. |. N. Stevens, who was select
ed for Congressman-a -at-large by the
Colorado Republican convention.
Mr.. Stevens has for years been
conspicuous for his splendid loyal
ty to the basic principles of free
and just rule. He has bravely
fought political corruption and the
public-service corporation corrup-
ton which is the backbone OF the
boss and the dynamo of the money
controlled party machines. He was
too much a fundamental thinker to
imagine that there could be any
thing like clean, efficient or popu-
lar representative government
while the great natural monopolies
were in the hands of private cor
porations, and to make popular
this vital issue he wrote The Ltber-
ators. which, while being a fascin-
ating and wholesome love romance,

Durham, N c., Oct. 12.-Mrs.
Erskine Hahn, of New York City,
addressing the students of the
National Religious Training
School here, a Negro institution
declared today that only 43 per
cent. of colored people in the Uni
ted States is illiterate, compared
with 83per cent. ten years ago. Her
point was made to show the steady
advance of education among Ne
groes. The school has an enroll
ment of more than 100. Today
was the opening of the fall term.

Decatur, Ala, Oct. ia civil
case in which two Negro lawyers

defendant and in which the plain

defendant Negro lodge, and all
of the witnesses were Negroes. has
Just been decided in the Morgan
county law and equity court here
before Judge Thomas W. Vert,
the Judge and jury being the
only white people in the case.
Lydia King brought suit against
the colored grand lodge knights
of Pythias of Alabama to recover
5000. The plaintiff was represent
ed by Fl. V. Cashin, Negro law
yer of Decatur, and the lodge was
represented by E. A. Brown, a Ne
gro lawyer of Birmingham. The

Is also the DeSC novel advocating
public ownership of natural monop-
olies that has appeared for propa-
ganda purposes.
Mr.. Stevens also recognized the
vital Importance at the present time
of securing for the people the tools
of Democracy, to the end that they
may at all times be in position to
make the government responsive to
their wishes. For years he has ably
advocated Direct Legislation, as he
has also woman s suffrage.
He is man of broad and states
manlike vision, lawyer and jour
nalist of marked ability, and is pre-
cisely the kind of man we need in
the next Congress. Colorado will
honor herself and confer benefit
on the nation by electing Mr.. Stew
ems to represent the Empire State
of the Rockies, which druing the
past year has made the most envia-

has marked the history of any
American commonwealth in recent
years.-B. o. Flower, in The Twen-

LORD BRESSEY

other yachtman may hope to equal,
the distance traversed being over
$4,000 natural miles.
During his last cruise, Lord Bras
scy paid an extensive visit to Canada
for the purpose of studying immigra-
ton problems. a soc;oiogist and poll
tical economist whose views have
weight with British ofIicialdom, Lord
BiTssey on his tours has always com
bined business with pleasure, and his
inyetigations in far lands bordering
on all the seven seas ltave served to
solve many interesting problems.
Lord Brassy holds that the problems
of unemployment and pauperism
which now confront Great Britain viii
find their best solution in sending the
young people to western Canada, Aus
tralia and other unsettled portions OF
the Empire. On his travels he has
acquired data regarding thousands of
men who were veritable paupers In
England-men apparently doomed to
the extreme poverty or crime-and
who in new lands have acquired posi-.
tions Of respect and comparative
wealth.
