How Three Women Made a Butcher
Uncomfortable.

In the February Woman's Home
Companion appear an account Of the
amazing work that is being done to-
ward reducing the cost Of living by the
Housewives League, an organization
composed Of 100000 women who have
found that they can get better prices
If they study the market reports in the
newspapers and use this information
when they 80 TO make their purchases.
Following is an extract:
AT recent meeting in one district
where much family marketing Is done
over the convenient telephone wire,
three league members discovered that
they had paid three prices for precise
ly the same cut Of lamb chops on the
same day. Each had been charged ac-
cording to her ignorance of the market
conditions or what the butcher figured
she would stand forl Not one Of those
women know what she should have
paid for lamb chops, Not one of them
had read in the morning papers the
current prices for meat at retail, But
before the league meeting was over
they know what they should have paid
and how to find out each morning Just
what meat or any sort, in any cut, was
selling for.
"The meeting did not pass resolu-
tions condemning the butcher, nor did
It discuss the relation between the
high cost Of meat to the expectation
Of cattle to England The three women
who had paid three prices for the same
cut Of meat, quietly formed themselves
into a committee and went straight
from the meeting TO the butchers
shop. Now con you imagine how the
butcher felt when, armed with the
comparison and the price they should
have paid, those three customers en-.
tered his market together and demand
ed an explanation? And do you think
that any home-maker who attended
that meeting and listened TO the eype-
rences Of her neighbors will ever fail
to look at the morning market reports
and prove TO her butcher that she
seems TO know?

old fight between the fishing interests
of Oregon and Washington may break
forth anew.
The move to do away with seining
on the upper Columbia, is said by
those who are supposed to be behind
the scenes, to be part of an old-time
feud between I. II. Taffe, fishwheel
man, and F. A. Seufert, a fisherman,
these men having been at fishing
"outs" for years, it is said, and It is
further claimed that Taffe is behind
the bill to do away with seining to
catch Seufert.

posed to seeing a change in the closed

Inc following editorial appeared
in the Dallas Morning News, the
leading Democratic Daily, is one
of the fairest statements the Colo
RADIO STATESMAN has ever noted as
emanating from a Bourbon press:
We beg leave to call Gov. Col
quits attention to Newspaper
report which recites that in Har-
rison County last Tuesday a mob
caught Negro named Anderson
and hanged him to tree, and at
terward fired on two Negro prison
ers who were being taken to Jail,
killing one of them and wounding
the other. What crime was i'm
puted to Anderson, the Negro who
was hanged, our own report does
not state, but it informs us that to
the other two Negroes, one OF
whom the mob slaughtered, the
lheinous crime of hog-stealing was
imputed.
Gallantry, like charity, ought to
begin at home; wherefore it has
occurred to us that before mobiliz-
ing our militia to fight spectors
across the Rio Grande Gov. Col
quit would do we'll to make sure
that there are not occasions and
conditions at home to enlist all
the energy and resources he can
command to protect human life.
Gov. Colquitt is sorely narrowed
and horrifed by atrocities that
have been committed in Mexico
while our own State is not infre-
quently the scene of atrocities that,
in some respects, are even less de-
fensible, since we can plead no
such dire circumstances as those
that beset the Moxicans.
We venture to say that the num-
ber of men and women who have
been murdered in Texas within
the last twelve months is three or
four times as great as the number
of Americans who have lost their
lives in Mexico throughout the
two years Of that country's troub-
les. Yet Gov. Colquitt's vision
has become so disordered that this
small splotch of American blood in
Mexico excites him into all sorts
of ludicrous capers, whereas the
steadily widening and deepening
pool of American blood within the
confines of this State is apparent
ly imperceptihle to him. The
slaughter of Americans in Mexico
tremendously perturbes him, but
the slaughter of larger number

BERT WILLIAMS GOING
TO LONDON

Bert Williams, the comedian,
who has been the principal feature
OF the Ziegfeld "Follies" produc-
tions for several years, is going to
cline overseas, where the color
line is not so strictly drawn as it is
in this country.
Recently contracts were signed
which will make Mr.. Williams the
star of the new American Revue to
be produced at the London Opera
House.
Lillian Lorraine, who has also
been a Ziegfeld star in many OF the
productions OF the festive F'lorenz,
will, too, be a member of the cast
of the London Opera House Revue.
Clifford Fisher, the manager OF
the London Opera House, has
been IN this country making
arrangements for the coming pro.
duction at the big theater Oscar
Hammerstein built in the English
metropolis and he has induced both
Mr.. Williams and Miss Lorraine
to affix their signitures to contracts
calling for their appearance in his
new .revue.
Williams was guaranteed by
Manager Fisher that he wonld bt
treated lust like a white man
and absolutely no prejudice woulo
be shown against him because o.
his color. He is to be featured il
all the advertising, have his pic
ture in the papers and see his
name in big electric signs in from
of the house.
Ziegfeld as soon as he Learned
that Mr.. Williams was to leave the
"Follies," issued search warran
for Frank Tinney, and when thai
comedian was discovered he was
notified that the "Follies" manager
would exercise the option which
he holds on his services immediate
| ly. This means that Tinney will
have to cancel his vaudeville en-
gagements and join the "Follies'
Company at once.
Miss Lorraine is being rehearsed
by Gus Sohike in special aci
with large chorus of pretty girls
and this act is to be one of the fea-
lures of the London Opera Revue.

known to be The Colorado Com

to act for the commercial and social
intereat of Denver and Colorado,

ness and unite the trade and in
fiuonces, and retain a greater pro-
portion of the circulation of our
earnings among Negro business
and build up those worthy and
capable, to the extent of furnish
ing employment.
The Colorado Commercial Alli-
ance will not engage in any bust
ness, as an organization. Its
principal aim will be to encourge
cooperation and encourage others
who may desire to engage in any
kind of business, anywhere in the
city or state.
The Association has established
headquarters at 1025-2l ST., where
all kinds of information will be
furnished and the public is invited
to attend the Monday evening
meetings, where discussions will
be INDUCED in on all subjects, con
cerning our progress.
The Associated membership
fee is but S1.OO per year and every
Negro doing business in Denver
and Colorado should list their Bus
mess with the association and get
the valuable literature that is to
be circulated, concerning the op-
pertunities for establishing much
needed business for our accom-
modations and advancement.
