We desire to congratulate Denver
on securing our new Y. NJ. C. A., and
almost in the same breath thank DR..
Moorland, the international secretary,
for his tireless efforts so generously
given in this behalf This movement
has demonstrated beyond a doubt
that the Denver Negroes are gener-
Gus, businesslike, altruistic and far
seeing and that they will and can put
their hard earned dollars together
for their general welfare. The only
requisite necessary is that the men
involved will be businesslike, honest
and straight forward in their deal
ings, sticking together to promote,
foster and develop that noble cause.
Denver needs Y. NJ. C. A. and her
very best and representative men
whose honesty, integrity and life's ac-
tions have never been questioned,
should lead the movement.
Again we congratulate the noble
women whose broadness and perspi-
cacity have shown that in Colorado.
women not only vote but give their
money as freely as men. Another
vile post past in our development,
and we are getting closer together.

In this home, on which since it was

part of the machinery by which the
typographical union takes care that
no one Of its members ever becomes

union has a. pension system for those
who are over 60 and have been men,

substitution of arbitration for strikes
Is the purpose Of the union. It is an
