The Colorado statesman., 1912-04-13
DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY. APRIL 10

tured families of Negro ministers,
lawyers, physicians, and business
men of Harlem as it does against
the ignorant and vicious element
of Myrtle avenue. Negroes find
that respectability is hardly re
commendation to impartial treat
ment, and that even the willing
ness to pay higher rental does
not often secure houses in desir-
able localities.
This opposition has expressed
itself in various ways. In some
cities it has been effective through
agents and owners. When the
real estate agents or owners could
not or would not prevent a Negro
invasion of block or neighbor-
hood, sometimes the white tenants
and householders have gathered
their belongings together, like the
Arab, and as silently moved away.
In Baltimore the opposition has
become consciously organized and
secured city legislation, while in
Kansas City recently it sank to
violent criminaiity, and used dy-
Mantle to wreck residences inhabi-
ted by Negroes.
And what is the sequel of this
segregation within the city? In
many cases it means less effective
police protection; in others it
means unpaved or poorly paved,
unswept streets; absence of ade-
quate sewerage, ungathered gar
bage, and the lack of other sanitary
requirements. 1t often causes the
respectable and decent to be un-
able to protect themselves and
their families from contact with
vice and crime, because the blocks
in which the respectable and dis
reputable may live are limited. 1t
means in some cities poorer
street car SERVICE for the Negro
section. 1t frequently leads the
white community to an unjust
judgement of these neighborhoods
as may be seen by the sobriquets
of Little Africa, ""black bottom"
''nigger town." and families who
live in these ighborhoods are all
Jumped by popular opinion into
one class.
The last but not the least ser
ious result is that the better ele-
ment of white people and the bet
ter element of colored people are
thus entirely removed from neigh
borhood contact; they know hard.
ly anything of their common life
and tend to become more hostile
toward each other tnan toward the
strangers without the gates.
Now, with this permanent mi
grafton and decided segregation
there is developing and crystaliz-
ing Negro world that in many of
the cities has life almost sepa-
rate and apart both from white
people and from, the life of the
white community. In the North,
where larger liberty in some lines
obtains, the home life, the church
life, and much of the business life
of Negroes and separately conduc-
ted. In the South, with separate
street-car arrangements in prac-
tically every city, with separate
coaches on railroads, separate

.SKAGWAY'S FAMOUS
 DOGMOBILE IS HERE

Harry Yeomans, the owner of skag- ways world.renowned dogmobile, will be in Juneau for some weeks, having been summoned here for jury duty
 Harry felt so badly, when he con templated leaving the motive power of his remarkable road wagon alone in the far Northern city that he brought the pair of big yellow dogs down to Juneau.
 Once the resolve had been made to bring the motive power he realized that there must be some provision made to exercise the dogs so he bun dled up the wheels with their pneu- matic tires and they are also here.
 Some fine morning when the beau tiful blind goddess on the hill gets tired of Harry's company Juneau will have a rare treat. Mir. Yeomans in- tends to contrlve an ambulance of some sort, having in part at least the glory of Skagways treasure if not a counterpart of the famous carriage. When finished the elite of Juneau's "4OO." yea, even sweet young society buds, will be invited to enjoy an exhil- arating ride with the speed maniac,
 Harry says that this is no idle per sihage-the dogs are here; the pneu- matic tires are here-the pretty girls are here. All that is needful is the opportme moment,

PORTLAND CITY HAS
 A MINING SECTION

Frank Doverspike, who recently ar rived from Stewart, B. C.. has gone on a short trip for the purpose of looking over some mining property. Mir. Doverspike Is an old Alaskan from Nome, who drlfted down into the Portland canal country.
 Mir. Doverspike, has according to well known Alaskans, who have been on the property, one of the biggest mining properties in that section. It is a large lead of silver galena gold ore, running very high in silver, with $1OO to the ton in gold.
 While the property is across the line in Canadian territory the only methods of ingress and egress is by way of Portland City on the American side. Portland City is at the mouth of Salmon river and the mining sec. tion is on that same stream across the boundary line about a mile and half. Stweart City is just across the canal on Canadian territory and at the mouth of Bear river. This stream too forms a large mining sec. tion which has attracted considerable attention to Stewart

HOPE
 OF HOLDING ON

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1S.-There is little probability that any of the re- cess appointments rnade by President Taft will be confirmed by the Sem ate, and these include officials of all grades from a judge of federal court to postmaster. The Democrats in the Senate will see to this, 1t is de- clared, and some of the Progressive Senators - notably Poindexter, of Washington-are in sympathy with the Democrats.
 It is pointed out that whenever a Republican administration has come into power they made short shrift of the Democratic officials, replac- ing them with Republicans with all possible haste; and the Democrats are just as hungry for office as ever were the Republicans.
 So it is said every appointment that has been made by President Taft will be held up in the Senate until Presi- dent Wilson has assumed office.
