Colorado State P~enitentiary.
Hon. N. c. Crews, Dear Sir: / am
enclosing herewith a copy of a decis-
ion handed down by the supreme court
of Colorado in regard to my case,
which was hastily tried in district
court of Otero county at La Junta,
Colo, in July, 1911, where l was in
stantly convicted and sentenced to
death and my aged father, a man OF
near SO years, was also convicted as
an accomplish and sentenced from 30
to 80 years at hard labor in state pen
itentiary. | was sentenced to death
for. protecting my aged father and
mothe2,,N.n their own home, and my
life at the cost of the lives of the two
brutal, inhuman, prejudiced, Negro
hating, lawless policemen who were
assaulting my mother and father, and
seeking to murder me.
But after being denied a new trial
by the judge trying my case, my at
torney, Ex-Judge Lyman l. Henry OF
Pueblo, Colo, assisted by w. B. Town
send, attorney-at-law of Denver, Colo,
aided at great expense by good citi-
zens of both races and members of

and my fathers, Prudent lodge, No. 6,
A. F. and A. M, Kansas City, Kas,,
1 succeeded in getting our case to the
supreme court, which readily reversed
the judgment of the lower court, and
granted me a new trial which will
500 come.
Now, dear sir, the fight has just
commenced as the prejudiced class in
that community are determined that
the sentence imposed on my father
and myself be carried out, and they
will use every means in their power
to gain their hellish ends, and to
thwart all in their desire to see me
get justice. l appeal to you for 1nan
cial aid, if you a assist me in any
way through the columns Of your pa
per, or otherwise, to meet the finan
cial demands involved, it will be great

Degenerate Tribes.

A stranger can scarcely imagine a
more degenerate looking specimen Of
humanity than the type Of Indian
found on the northern Pacific coast
to-day. Many different tribes exist
on, and in the vicinity Of Vancouver
Island, the majority being engaged in
fishing pursuits, and they have ac-
quired most of the evils OF civiliza-
tion, with few Of its advantages,
which has brought them to miser-
able state.
A few Of the more wealthy-or less
law Indians own good sailing
boats, but 10 is a common sight to

is 1T ANY WONDER?

Man drinks whiskey that clogs
the valves; he drinks beer and
that clogs the wheels; he downs
lemonade, ginger ale, buttermilk,
iced tea, coffee, and what not,
and then wonders why the boilers
do not burst. If you should take
an OK and put him through a like
performance, he would be dead
in a month. The simplest and.
plainest laws of health are out
ragged every day by the average
man. Did Adam smoke? Did Eve
wear a corset? Did Solomon chew
tobacco? Did the children of
Israel make for a beer garden
after crossing the Red Sea? Did
Rebecca chew chocolate bonbons
and ice cream and call for soda
water?
Adam was the first man, and
was made perfect from head to
heel how long would he remain
so after eating pie before going
to bed? Suppose he had slept in a
bedroom fve-by-seven, with the
windows closed down, the doors
shut, and two dogs under the bed?
Suppose Eve had been laced up
in a corset, worn tight shoes,
hobble figleaves, and sat up all
hours of the night eating chicken
salad and Welsh rarebits and try
ing to keep on four pounds of
dead peoples hair?

GOOD NEWS

Dear Friends: - Maybe you
would like to know that Mr..
Pearson's "other half" is also
editing a monthly paper, called
Good News It is quite different
from The Fool-Killer, and some
of you might not like it, but if
you want to send fifteen cents for
a years subscription, or get up a
club of five or more at ten cents
each, Pm satisfied you'll have no
kick coming against me. Good
News is a non-sectarian religious
paper, same size as The Fool.
Killer, and stands for the pure
and undefiled religion of Jesus
Christ and the Whole Truth of
Gods Word. As long as The Fool
Killer lives, the proceeds of Good
News will be used in charitable
and religious work. Also along
with your subscription or club
send me a~good list Of names (of
women preferably to send sample
copies to-not very many from
one postofice-and I'll appreciate
it. Address:

things every day and calling it

And the worst of it is that

job The Fool-Killer has ahead of
it!

Strange as it may seem, The
Fool-Killer does not believe in
killing people-literally. It on
ly wants to kill out the foolish
ness in people and let everybody
live and be happy. Can you
find any fault with that?

like the spirit of the meek and
lowly Nazarene? Well, I should
say not!
Every man who writes or
speaks against making America

outburst of abuse and dire threats
from the miserable, maul-headed
nuts of the Romish rabble. I get
letters every little while warning

nal lies" and quit telling things
on the Holy Roman Catholic
Church, The howly humbugs
are going to take it upon them
selves and see to it that I am put
out of business, and if they can't
do it one way they will another.
They will indict, imprison, shoot,
beat and burn such Infamous
heretics as I am, just like the
now famous alleged Knight Of
Columbus oath says they will. Of
course they claim that the oath
as printed and circulated is a
forgery, but it corresponds so
we'll with recent acts of the
blood thirsty gang that it must
be true. If it isn't genuine, why
in the devil are they trying so
hard to make their conduct
measure up to it's specifications?
The Roman Catholic church a
Christian institution? Lord pity
anybody who is fool enough to
believe it. The intolerant spirit of
mob and murder that prevades
the whole heathenish hangout is
good and sufficient proof that
none of the spirit Of Christ abides
in it.
When did Jesus get mad and
curse and abuse those who op-
posed him and threaten to do
them some bodily harm?
When did Jesus lead a mob Of
ruffians against a peaceable
citizen and beat him nearly to
, death?
When did Jesus lock up a gang
of women in a dungeon and allow
nobody but Himself to visit them?
When did Jesus defy the civil
authorities and refuse to be
governed by the law Of the land?
When did Jesus take. a poor
Widows last dollar to pay Him
for praying her innocent dead
baby out of hell?
When did Jesus live in a gilded
mansion costing fifty million
dollars, with an army Of slaves tc
do his bidding?
When did Jesus wear roya.

At tho Empress.

The show at the Empress, the MUIR
ray Musical Comedy Co." was can
celled yesterday by the mana cement
after the first show. Manager Jones
made an announcement to the effect
that no company not up TO the STAN
dard, could play his house and made
a hit with the audience, when he said
that he would rather close his house
than play such a show. At the night
show the house was packed to the
doors to see the vaudeville that Man
ager Jones had provided for them.
Taking into consideration the short
time the management had to secure
this show it was very good. The acts
consisted of the following: Honey Boy
Wintergreen, black face comedian;
Johnny Jones and Holmes in harmony
singing; Moran and Van, man and
women singing and dancing act;
Baby Eugene, marvellous four-year-
old comedian.
The same show will appear today
and tomorrow as it will be impossible
to get new acts in before Thursday
when Manager Jones has booked four
acts of the best vaudeville for the re-
mainder of the week. Starting Monday
a first class tab" show has been Sc
cured and one that will DO credit TO
any house. Three reels of the very
best pictures will complete the pro-
gram.

The Smart Set,

If you can imagine a neer- do-well,
an iIliterate and shiftless negro try
ing to palm himself off as a president
of a thriving and illustrious CoIored
Republic and at the same time aspir-
ing to social and political honors, you
can get a fair idea Of the plot of
the new musical comedy, THE Wrong
Mr.. President" which is booked as the
next attraction at the opera house
on Friday Jan. 2Srd. The piece is
in three acts and we are informed that
there is not a duh or listIess mo-
ment throughout. It is to be inter
preted by THE Smart Set Company,
an organization composed of colored
artists, who have won their spurs as
entertainers out Of the beaten path.

the burden Of the fun rests. Whit

this particular production, which, by
the way, was written by himself, his
talents are said to have unlimited
sway. Whitney has earned through
hard and indefatigible work a most
enviabIe reputation and from all ac-
counts in his latest concoction of med
ody, song and mirth he lives up to
his well earned popularity. He has
associated himself this season with a
cast of forty players all capable in
their respective lines of endeavor. His
leading assistants are Homer Tut and
