FACING THE LIONS.

The election of the Hon. Hubert
Work as the Senator from Colorado in
the place OF Sen. c. S. Thomas (Dem. }
is a matter OF exceedingly vital CON
cern, not only to the Republican par
ty in the State but in the Nation as
well. II in the coming elections, the
Republicans of this country sustain
a net loss Of only three United States
Senators. the Democratic membership
in the Senate becomes so increased
that it will be impossible for the Re.
publicans, under the most favorable
circumstances, to secure majority
in that body until March 4, 1919. This
means, should a Republican be elec.
ted in 1916, that he would be con.
fronted with Democratic Senate for
ut least the first two Years of his
term, Senate hostile tn his policies
doubtless attagonlstic to his admin
fstration, and blocking the way oi
all affirmation legislation. Why. thus
embarrass the coming Republican
President and his administration
when true Republicans can now set
tie all doubts as to the future?
For instance: No tariff law protec
tive to American industries could be
enacted until after March A. 1919
| four years hence and then some-ant
! the busihess and labor interests o.
the country for that period of time
could receive no relief from the In
! furious effects of the present Demo
I cratic tariff law. The Star wants tt

to it and for that and other reason
is why we must elect DR.. Hubert Worl

DENVER STAR RECEIVES LET
TER SFROM VOTERS.
Glenwood Springs, Colo.

Mr.. C. s. Muse, Editor Denver Star
Dear Sir: Let me first thank you
for your very able and timely editor
ial of Oct. Bird inst. in answer to the
stand that the Sunday Alliance" has
taken concerning the candidacy OF
Senator Patterson for governor Now
| wish to be plain in the matter and
have no fight to make upon the Sun,
day Alliance" and have at all times
entertained great respect for that or.
ganization, as the Alliance in times
past has done some great and noble
things and today l believe the organ
ization is in position to do much good
in the future. Yet | cannot convince
myself why the Alliance should be
overshadowed by a Patterson influ-
ence" only, as many other men have
done noble and great things for US,
politically and otherwise. have
never heard of any political appoint
ments for Negroes secured by the
learned Senator while there, nor any
thing save his manly defense of truly
democratic principles. Now many
other men believe with me that we
should not be classed as "ingrates" or
enemies to the race, because we don't
think like the dominating influence
of the Sunday Alliance. ! have often
wondered if the Sunday Alliance tina:
endorsed Patterson is composed now
of that kind of stuff it consisted of
when Rev. Jno. Ford was pastor Of
Zion. Senator Patterson when a
member Of the U. S. Senate demon:
strated to the world that he was not
our enemy; not only while editor and
owner of the News and Times, but at
all times, he stood out ready to de-
iend US when defense was necessary
But because Senator Patterson has
shown his friendship for us, as you
SO ably stated, is no reason why we
should blindly vote for him NOW,
when by so doing we have no assur-
ance that it will benefit us in the fu.
ture, The union organizations, to
which the Senator has pledged his
support at all times and under all
circumstances, has stubbornly fought
the Negro, attempting to prevent him
from properly providing for his fam,
lily. Hence l must say that 1t is to
the best interest of the Negro to vote
for and support the nominee of the
party that stands for fair play and
an equal chance to work and live
And for that reason | heartily agree
and concur with the Star in the sup
g port of the Republican party from tor
to bottom.
Respectfully,
w. H. DUNCAN.

Dallas, Texas, Oct. 7, 1914.
My dear George:
Enclosed herewith | hand you
check for s1.5O for my years sub
scription and trust you will pardon
delay in my sending it to you.
| note, by your last two issues, that
you are having considerable factional
fighting among my people over the
recognition of the different clubs. For
mercy sake, plead with them to all
unite and stand for the Republican
party at this particular time in the
state of Colorado, for if they look
around over the state and the city OF
Denver and see the depressed condi
tions that now exist, under the pres
ent administration and union labor
they can readily see the necessity OF
overthrowing the party responsible
for this sad condition. With me, like
Phillip B. Steward of Colorado
Springs and Jno. F. Vivian of Golden
! feel assured that if they are given
the proper support from former Re
publicans of my people. that there
will be fair divisions and favorable
consideration given my people, should
the party win. I agree with you that
this is not the time for personal griev-
ances to take the place of party af-
fliations.
Trusting that you and the more
conservative men of my race may be
able to keep them in line by careful
persuasion, and from time to time in
your valuable paper pointing out to
them the mistake they would make
if they proved traitors at this time to
the party, am, as ever,
Yours very truly,
HARRY COWELL.

We are pleased to congratulate the
representative men and women OF
Color upon the splendid recognition
being given us by the Republican Par
ty through the State and County
Chairmen the Hon. Phillip B. Stewart
and George Steele. Much work on
the part Of some Of our best men had
to be exerted to convince them OF
the necessity of permanent organ
ization, and they finally gave recogni-
ton to our representatives on each
of the executive committees. Not only
that but they have provided for a
headquarters and have already put
nearly so people to work at wages
ranging from 50 to IS per day.
Complaint has been made to us that
some of the big Negroes" when hired
to do canvassing work at a certain
wage per day (for. 8 hours), were
found home making pies; doing wash
ing. some down shopping; yet drew
their days pay. The Star is against
this sort OF practice and has pledged
itself to publish the names of those
who "shirk" this time. There are too
many good honest people who will
give value received for the chance to
work. Let us all be fair nd honest
and deliver the goods" because much
in the future depends upon our activ-
ity and success. We thank the broad
hearted chairmen for their recogni-
tfon and kindness.

THE CREED OF THE COUNTRY

81 believe that the country which
God made is more beautiful than the
city which man made; that life out of
doors and in touch with the earth is
the natural life of man. I believe
that work is work wherever I find it,
but that work with nature is more in
spring than work with the most in
tricate machinery. I behave that the
dignity of labor depends not Only up
on what you, do, but on how you do II;
that opportunity comes 20 boy on

Mr.. Benedict Priestly, writing from
Newark, n j., to the New York World
says that General Hughes. of the
Canadian militia, reports that 1000
citizens of the United States wish n
enlist in the Canadian army which l.
to be sent to Europe to fight the Ger
mans and that most of these United
States citizens are southerners. Then
Mr.. Priestly goes on TO give Englan
a dig" because of her friendly attitude
toward the south during the civil war
period, which shows that the civ,l
war feelings are still ranking in the
breasts of some people. Mr.. Priestly
says: well, why shouldn't tn
help England? Did not England help
the south during the civil war. and
did not hundreds of thousands OF Ger
mans fight in the Union armies AMI
help overthrow the Confederacy ?
You cannot blame the southerners for
wishing to repay the English for their
help and at the same time take re-
venge on the Germans for the great
aid they gave the Union cause. "
The southerners here referred to
were all born since the termination Of
our civil war and perhaps know very
little of England's good offices to The
south during those perilous times. but
they no doubt feel grateful TO Eng
land for that for other causes also
for it was the sons of the mother
