A YOUNG LADY PRAISED.

To the Editor Colorado Statesman:
Dear Sir Born and raised among
colored people, my grandfathers both
Shareholders, conceived the idea that
the colored people were an inferior
race and had many traits that merited
the treatment they received AS a
child | could not see any reason why
it was considered legal to make slaves
out of these people, neither could |
understand why they insisted as a re-
taliation in abusing the whites, and
confess | would not have indorsed
slavery had | been of age. During my
growth from youth to manhood | have
been compelled to change my opinion
as again and again | have had proofs
of genuine manly and womanly char
acteristic features of my colored breth-
rem and am convinced that they are
desirable citizens and most valuable
assets to any community.
In Denver we have an enterprising,
intelligent, honest set of colored peo-
pie as whole, whose records are to a
great extent better than the whites.
Even if they were born in the South
they are intelligent enough to know
that there are very few people living
today who opposed the action taken
on their behalf during the Civil War.
Many of them are property owners,
and contribute in a large measure, con.
sidering their numbers, to the treas.
ury of the city and state. They de-
serve positions of responsibility be-
cause they are trustworthy citizens.
1 quote specially the case of Frances
Tucker of 1861 Curtis street, who
found pocketbook containing a large
sum of money in my telephone booth
and promptly turned it over to my as
sistant manager without extracting
one cent
You may say no one deserves credit
for being honest, but | am sure the
world would be revolutionized if the
majority of people were like Frances.
There are many people that need EN-
ployes like Frances and you would
be perfectly justified, Mr.. Editor, in
holding her up as a beautiful exam
pie of how honorable Denver colored
people are. Hoping that you will con-
tinue the fight that you have been
making against Race Prejudice, and
while not seeker after notoriety,
herein subscribe myself as being al
ways a friend to merit and honesty,
and will do anything righteously in
the cause of the colored people. Be-
lieve me. Very truly,
A BUSINESS MAN.
