in his high-browed, wise-acred way,
that it was silly for negro to have
any fixed political or moral principles.

his race is concerned, he lives in
sibeyic realm, a gracerial sphere. In
the present cricis we need men who
will stand up and speak out for un-
trammeled citizenship. but the jibes

Spilled propagandists are blessing,

wise to shun the Establishments Of
such as he, for
Their friendships but a lurking snare,
Their honor's but an idle breath,
Their smiles the smiles that traitors

Their love is hate, their life is
death.
There is much more that could be

COMMENTS ON THE NEGRo's
"BEAST IN THE JUNGLE"
To the Statesman:

To the Statesman:
Since the cessation of that remark
able serial, "The Beast in the N.
grO's Jungle" short comment will
perhaps be in order 1t is certainly
remarkable for its long, drawn-out,
disconnected maudlin plant Also,
for its choleric, obscure, and inde-
ciprehable innuendoes. The colored
citizens of the state and Denver have
shown patient forbearance to say
the least That is commendable.
They have permitted this comingling
of child-like prattlings and demented
chickering's to pass them by like the
idle wnds which they respect not"
And shall attempt no defense Of
them; they do not need it.
There is no fair-minded thoughtful
person who will deny that the colored
people of Denver compare favorably
with similar populations in the coun-
try. They are possessed with the
short and long-comings like the rest
Of common humanity. If there is any
thing peculiar in the social structure
of the colored citizen of Denver, or
a peculiar beast in the jungle, as o.
T. ]. would have us believe, 1t seems
to be the general opinion that it is
one of those grunting roofing beasts
from nearby mountain town, with
an Unsuitable appetite and a slight re-
gard for cleanly conduct. 1t is in
conceivable to anyone with ordinary
intelligence how he received faily
good position without any claims to
having merited it, and afterwards
was taken up by some Of the minis
ters and other good citizens and put
at the head Of a scheme Of his own
invention, and backed it to an extent
with their money until they were
forced to doubt his judgment or In
tegrity, or both. When it is remem-
bered- that this would-be imitator of

ARTISTS AND THEIR WORK

A interesting exhibition which
~ opened yesterday and will con-
tinue until the evening of De-
cember 81 is that of so portraits and
sketches by Mrs. Caroline Rixford
Johnson, which are on view at her
studio in Pierce street This display
is of twofold interest, because of its
being the first collective one neld by
the artist since her return from Eu-
rope and because it shows a wide di-
veFslty of subject and of trea tment,
including in its range sketches OF
Paris and of Switzerland and Mexican
scenes, as well as a few more than in
teresting bits of landscape from nearer
home One of the most pleasing of
these is picture of Portsmouth square
before the fire, done in oils and bring
ing out all the picturesquenes and
charm of the place. Another is of the
chestnut street hill, a glimpse of coun-
try set down in the midst of the city
and crowned by its old home rem
nant of former greatness. The place is
an odd one and strikes the passerby

charm, and this impression Mrs John

The Criminal Fish Trust

The members of the fish trust who
did not escape by the immunity bath
route have been fined $3.50 each. or
$4,000 for the eight. And yet the evf-
dence showed that to keep up prices
the fish trust had destroyed hundreds
of tons of good fish which hungry men
and women of this city needed for food.
One can scarcely conceive of a greater
economic crime. The members of the
fish trust, to put it mildly got off
lucky. BY the way, despite the in
adequate punishment, we must compli-
