REPUBLICANS GET TOGETHER.

In an harmonious meeting at the
Brown Palace hotel, the Republican
state central committee and all the
leading Republicans of the state got
together and elected the Hon. Philip
B. Stewart state chairman, which of
itself was the greatest political move
of the campaign. Mr.. John F. Vivian,
whom aH the colored men know to be
a man of his word and honor, was
elected secretary. The Star feels just
Iy proud Of this selection of good men
to conduct this most important cam
paign. Now that all internal dissen-
.sions have been settled, organizing
and preparatory steps will be taken to
roll up the biggest Republican major
ity given to any set of men in Colo
rado. Nothing but big Republican
victory tbis year will suffice. Every
body get on the band wagon of Re
publicanism.
The Denver star., 1914-09-26

The Denver Star has no quarrel
with anyone. Everyone who can ana
will work for the success of the Re
publican party this year is quite well
come to work. Suffice to say that
there is no use in the Negro dividing
himself in many parts in order to fur
nish or accommodate leaders. How
ever, if some can work for Republican
ism better alone or with a certain few
than with one united body of men and
women, the Star says work, work,
WORK, as long as it is for Republican
victory Yet there must always be
and there will be this time recog-
nized leader who will look after the
welfare of the Negro voters The Star
does not intend to fight Republican
leaders or members, but intends to use
it's strength for Republican success

SALT LAKE INSPIRATIONS.
A Complimentary Innovation.

Salt Lake City, Utah, stands higf
in the list of those who, in the face
of all opposition, have demonstrated
their ability to do things" the mora
conviction to shatter the idols of pre-
judice, and to adopt a commendable
standard worthy of emulation.
Two years ago colored girls were
placed in the theatres of Chicago as
ushers. The test was experimental
and the eyes of the suspecting people
were turned to those places of amuse
, ment critically, certain that the thea
tres had adopted a plan Of huge i'm
possibilities. The future, however
does not always disclose its results;
and after a lapse of two years, we
find the girls seriously holding on to
their new-found duty, the perform
ance of which has so much impressed
the manager and patrons that Seat
tie was soon in line for colored usn.
ers, and just recently the Utah thea
tre OF Salt Lake installed them.
Mrs. Beulah O'Brien was instru-
mental in the establishment and Sc
lection of the beautiful and intelli-
gent array OF girls in the Utah house,
and with her in charge and Miss Val
entine Pearmon captain OF the upper
floor. We look forward to a permanent
home and occupation in this new ven
ture. The manager has expressed
himself as being entirely satisfied,
and we are hopeful of good results.
Now, girls, you on whom the honor
has been conferred, make good" and
remember that all who may have the
good fortune to follow you will have
to be subjected to your standard Of
morality and good behavior. Other
houses and more cities will be
claimed by us IL IL your actions, your
your strict attention to
business, can bear the imprint of ap-
proval from your managers and pa
irons. You all have the ability and
we are confident of your SUCCESS. Let
this be real live issue, and when
we express our gratitude to those
who have been kind enough to open
this avenue to the race, our kindly
remembrance to those who had the
courage to forge to the front and the
tenacity of purpose to make good,
will live forever.
We deserve recognition, and when
the day comes that the barrier of op-
position is removed, we should double
our efforts TO prove to the world and
to the prejudiced few that it was not
lack of ability. but OF opportunity,
that prevented us from making good.
To the managers of the various
theatres in Chicago Seattle and Salt
Lake City, through whose efforts this
system was inaugurated, we extend
our deep and sincere gratitude and
trust that these girls whom you have
seen fit to install in your houses, may
give such satisfaction that through
your recommendation the doors OF
other theatres may be opened to ad
nit them. A movement of this sort
must perforce rebound to our credit
and help to eliminate the differences
and the prejudices that are SO often
inflicted upon the innocent.
Chicago, Seattle and Salt Lake City
are already accounted for, and we
hope that ere long Denver may line
herself up in this noble cause. Who
will be next?

MAX HAYES RAPS MEDDLERS IN
SOCIALIST PARTY
Four main issues will be thrown
to the front by the Socialists in their
congressional campaign which will
open actively Sept l., These issues
will be:
l. The failure of the Wilson adj
ministTation to abolish poverty, con-
regulate monopoly, or reduce the cost
of living.
2. Government ownership\Of rail-
ways and coal mines.
3. The necessity for Socialist
measures to solve the problem of the
unemployed
4. The treason of American capt.
talists in bringing on the present stu
alton in Mexico. *
These issues were discussed before
the national committee in the Sher-
man House today, following the re-
port of the committee on organiza-
ton and propaganda.
July Is every one of the 100000
members of the Socialist party will
pay over one day wage to the party
treasury. Morris Hilquitt said the
plan would net $25O,OOO if all mem
bers came through and that even if
only ten per cent respond it will bring
in $25, 0OO
Each year a Red Week is to be OBJ
served. During this week every party
member will make special effort to

100000 new subscribers to Socialist
papers, it was stated.

OWENS MAKES FIRST MOVE IN
REELECTION CAMPAIGN
County Judge Owens fired the first
shot in his campaign for reelection
yesterday by removing all election
judges and clerks in the First Ward.
Owens reasons are obvious, It is
common talk that Aldermen Kenna
and Coughlin will not support Owens
this fall. So Owens, who is boss Of
the election machinery in Cook cOdn-
ty, evidently intends that the First
Ward polling places will be manned
this fall by his friends.

The Sea King left last Monday

Was picked up and towed to the Gu

day, the steamer called at Key West
for orders and thence came direct to
Pensacola, arriving as above denoted.
Upon arrival. those who were &C
quainted with circumstances of the
loss of the late tug Monarch, asked
Ga gerly If there was any trace Of the
former PensaCola tug seen. The Sea
King passed the STOt where the wreck
of the Monarch was located at night.
and those aboard We're unable to get

which has been reported as showing

1t is singular indeed that this class

hension that, having once been
licked out of a state by an outraged
public sentiment, these outlawed in
terests should imagine that they can
again resume business there.
The people Of Louisiana are doubt
ass too wise and have too much moral
character to allow the race track gam
.'lers to again take up their debauch-

sentiment all over the nation con-

Famous Advertisers
Give Advice.

Here is the testimony of some of
the most famous advertisers of the
day, men who are capable of giving
advice to others on the subject:
The success of a business house is
measured by the volume and con-
tinuity of it's advertising. - Frank
Presbrey Company.
We invest in advertising just as we
invest in the best materials for our
goods.-Colgate & Co.
By advertising only can railroads
convince the public that it will be car
ried in comfort and safety.-George A
Cullen, Delaware, Lackawana and
Western Railroad.
Periodic advertising Of the most
brilliant kind leads to failure where
ordinary advertising, persistently fol-
lowed, brings successful results.-B. T.
Babhitt, Inc.
We advertise as a sort of business
insurance, in winter and summer, in
good times and bad, and thus have
made Victor Talking Machines known
the world over.-Victor Talking Ma
chime Company.
