THE WRITER OF THE ARTICLES.

What appears in the Denver Star
from time to time is not so profound
ly intellectual or comprehensive in lit
erary lore as to require professor or
philosopher to write, yet there Is
certain newspaper man in this city
who constantly tries to stir up trouble
by connecting innocent persons with
the Stars editorials and responsibility.
We try to tell our simple story from
the Negroes side. The Star has no
dollar-and- -half-a-week editors. We
write our own editorials or we use
plate matter; every other matter ex-
cepting writeups, news items, etc.,
have the authors name signed to
them. We have evidences on the wall
which bespeak our qualifications, often
proven, and if the editor is in doubt
let him start something. The Star has
no lickspittle, grinning, evasive, hat-in-
hand, back-door submissive policy. We
believe in honesty and fearlessly
speaking of wrongs done us publicly,
even if our convictions cause us to re-
tract or apologize every succeeding
issue We, looking from a racial point
Of view, and being the only organ in
Denver trying to protect and defend
the Negro, are compelled to be on the
firing line always defending from foes
within the race, as we'll as foes out
side of the race. 1t is hard job, but
we will stay on it. We have tried to
tell you in fair way our course and
all about our conference with Mr..
Pitcher and we now drop the matter.

to our race that the Star was unable
to see why our women were excluded.
Mr.. Geo. G Ross told him he, and he
alone, wrote every article appearing
in the Star and that he alone was re-
sponsible and that no person tried to
inspire nor did inspire the criticism OF
his public actions.
Mr. Pitcher said he would discharge
six or eight colored men. He was told
that these hardworking men who had
families to support were good citizens
who are not in any way. responsible
for the articles, and to discharge those
nersons who were his friends, and
who had done their work well and
against whom there was no objection,
would be a great injustice to them.
How can a man who really wanted to
appoint Negro deputy assessor and
after one of his advisers had knocked
the applicant, Mr.. Nolle Smith, did ap-
point him, despite of the knocks,
now grow SO narrow and warped as to
make innocent people suffer for what

lieve that Mr.. Pitcher is that sort of
a man. After much discussion of the
conditions by the editor and the ex-
nlanation of Mr.. Pitchers attitude ana

San Francisco.--On the western edge
of the North American continent, lash
ed by the restless waves Of the great
Pacific ocean on one side and by an
immense island dotted bay almost sur
rounding it on the other, in remark
ably congenial climate. veritabI gar
den spot Of enchanting lovelinees, Is
located San Francisco, the city OF hills.
In the most favored section Of this
city has been planted the Panama
Pacific International exposition. A
visit to this exposition is calculated to
broaden the minds Of visitors, Great
ing greater social sympathies among
them, harmonizing geographical and
international viewpoints and render
ing it easy to realize brotherhood
Of man among men.
It would be serious misfortune to
the colored people Of the United States
II they should for any reason be de
TERED from visiting this magnificent
exposition, and especially on account
Of the misleading and erroneous report
circulated recently that the attitude Of
the citizens OF San Francisco and the
exposition Is unfriendly, hostile and
antagonistic toward them.
Knowing our people as l do and re-
alizing how easy 1t Is to create the
tmorous spirit among them on ques-
tions of discrimination and prejudice.
I have thought it wise to send forth
this frank statement concerning the
situation here In San Francisco. Near.
ly everywhere in this country ques-
tions of segregation, discrimination
and prejudice are engrossing the at
tention OF leaders. and would save
our people embarrassment and hurnilia-
ton wherever 1t is possible. To those
who have decided to visit the exposi-
ton and to those who have not yet
fully contemplated that pleasure be It
understood that San Francisco is big
cosmopolitan city. 1t is more liberal
in sentiment and less provincial In
racial matters than many other cities
of its size.
Representatives of great number
of races are seen daily on the streets.
Little racial antipathy or animosity II
observable in the conduct of the peo-
pie in public places Notwithstanding
tho incongruous, dissimilar and hetero-
geneous character Of the population.
Indeed, San Francisco is singularly
free from racial friction as compared
with some other cities. On the expo
sition grounds the most generous and
cordial spirit prevails among the visi-
tors and natives. and here one secs for
