RooseveIt,s Candidacy

1t is a mistake-Roosevel candid
acy.
1t is mistake against Roosevelt
himself, against President Taft,
against the Repub' lean party, against
the country.
Roosevelt wants to be president
again-that is the whole story. 1t is
a candidacy which has ambition as its
basis, its superstructure and its whole
shooting match"
Roosevet's place in history was Sc
cure up to last Saturday. There is no
great crisis to lead him into the
breach at this time We believe that
he is due to fall outside the breast
works, battered and SCARED, and that
he will never look the same" again.
No man in the history of our country
was ever given three terms in the
presidential chair, and no man should
be thus honored except possibly in a
crisis like war where there was
great unfinished work to be complet.

Roosevelts candidacy will tend to

PAY OF TEACHERS

Prof. ]. F. Messenger OF the Uni
versity of Vermont and one of the
leading educators of the state makes
a suggestion in regard to payment OF
better salaries to competent teachers.
Prof. Messenger is the dean Of the
University of Vermont summer school
which does a great work in aiding
teachers to fit themselves for their
duties. He writes as follows
1t is generally agreed that the sala-
ries of teachers should be higher than
they now are in most places in Yer
mont. 1t is also agreed that In order
TO keep abreast of the educational
progress of the times the teaching
force should improve. Would 1t not
be a simple business proposition to
make the increase in salary condi-
toned upon the improvement OF the
teacher? In other states a plan has
been tried with great success. The
school officers say to the teacher,
Prepare yourself better and we will
pay you HnOIt. hc lSaShSl VIM
can take a year off and attend a col
lege or normal school may return to
her position and receive better pay
Few teachers can afford to do this.
The next best thing is to use the va
cation. A teacher who spends six
weeks in school Is worth more to the
community. She is usually glad to
improve herself If she can afford 1t
II the district can raise her salary
would it not be advantageous to Offer
her one or two dollars a week more
| If she will spend six weeks in a sum
mer school for teachers? The com
munity thus gets immediate returns
for the outlay, and the teacher gets q
recompense for the time and money
she spends.

A very pretty but extremely slender
girl entered a street car and managed
to seat herself in a very narrow space
beween two men. Presently portly
colored nanny entered the car and
the pretty miss, thinking TO humillate
the men for their lack Of gallantry,
arose.
"Aunty," she said with a wave OF
her hand toward the place she had
just vacated, take my seat"

colored woman, smiling broadly; but

PURE SAVAGERY.

The extremes to which feeling
against Negroes is amply illustrated
by the lynching of man inside the
Wyoming penitentiary who was
charged with rape. 1t is hardly con-
ceivable how men under lock and key
surrounded with armed guards could
do any act contrary to penitentiary
rules without the connivance and as
sistance of the prison officials. The
lynching is a terrible Indictment of
the officers of the law of Wyoming.
Were it only that it might be soon for
gotten. But note how in the daily
press of Denver, and we presume the
same is true of other cities, there is
an appeal to race feeling made by
writers who tell of the narrowed feel
ings of the Wyoming convicts when
they found themselves confined with
in the same building as the black
rapist. A lot of cultured ladies, or
or intelligent, high class men, might
revolt at such proximity, but it is
ridiculous to ascribe fastidiousness to
convicts some of whom are doubtless
guilty and under sentence for the
same crime.
The truth is that public sentiment
has not yet preferred to respect the
law where a Negro is supposed to
have transgressed, it has chosen to
satisfy it's blood lust. 1t has chosen
to feed its race hate. 1t is willing to
gloss over it's savagery with excuses.
The American people are the moral
support of the negligent Wyoming Of
ficials and the fastidious Wyoming
convicts. Mob murder in this case
was not due to any fear that the
guilty man would escape.
1t is a dark prospect indeed when
such acts as this can be committed
and a thousand times the worse be-
cause there is no active sentiment to
brand them for what they are.

WEDDING BELLS.

On last Saturday afternoon at p.
m. at the residence of the brides
brother and sister, Mr.. and Mrs. C. D.
Kemp, on Welton street, Father
Brown united in holy matrimony Miss
Vinita Kemp Westfield and Ernest
Maxwell Parks. In preparation for
the ceremony the home had been
beautifully decorated. The parlor was
embowered with autumn leaves and
grapes, with the musician, harpist
surrounded by palms. The friends,
gathered early and after the cere-
mony held an impromptu levee up un-
til o'clock when Mr. and Mrs. Parks
went away on bridal tour including
Oklahoma and Missouri points.
The bridal party consisted of the
bride, looking very sweet in marqui-
sette over pale pink satin, trimmed
with real lace. She carried a boquet
roses. The brides maid was Miss
Lena Barnes, who was beautiful in
gown of chiffon over white satin
and carried boquet of pink roses
Mrs. Fannie Clark, the matron of
honor wore a handsome creation of
pale green satin and carried Ameri-
can beauties. The brides brother,
Augustus Westfield was best man..
Mr.. Kemp gave her away and every
one in Denver seems to have remem-
bered them with wedding gift so
numerous were they. The larger gifts
began with a brass bed and $50 in
money and the list included silver
ware, linen, china, costly and useful.
They will return to the city about
October 70.

NOTES OF THE ZION
BAPTIST CHURCH

Tomorrow will be the winding up
of Zion's Annual Rally, which with the
gleanings we expect to get at that
time, will make total of s1,50OOO.
When all things are considered this is
one of the most successful rallies
Zion has ever held. There is no ques-
tion that there are more good people
out of work; the cost of living is
higher and it is harder to get money
this fall than at any other period in
the history of Denver for many years
The pastor and the boards desire to
commend the membership for the
loyalty and spirit of sacrifice which
were shown in this effort.
We are to be visited tomorrow by
DR.. Charles Stewart, one of the truly
great men of the race. Mr.. Stewart
| is one of the most forceful men before
, the American people and is the only
Negro who is a member of the great
Associated Press, which position he
has held for many years. DIR. Stew
art will occupy the pulpit at both
morning and evening services and at
3 o'clock in the afternoon will ad-
| dress meeting for men only at the
church
1t is hoped that no man who can find
| it possible to attend will miss this
afternoon meeting. DR.. Stewart can
appeal to men as few speakers can
and no man who hears him can re-
ceive other than a great benefit. The
subject is, whole Men or Fragments
which,"
Monday evening DR.. Stewart will
deliver his famous lecture on the race
question, "Sambo Waxed Fat and
Kicked" This lecture has been given
in all parts of this country and has
never failed to delight and instruct
the large audiences which are always
eager to hear this brainy black man.
Remember that the admission is free.
1t will be interesting to the friends
of Zion to know we have information
from the Calvary officers that they
expect to break ground for the buiic-
ing operations on the new church at
sixteenth and Downing the middle of
next week. With good weather it is
hoped that the building can be rushed
to completion, which means that
Zion will be in line for an early move.

evening closed with refreshments,
topped off with some of Mr.. and Mrs.
