i Delphos, Ottawa county, Kansas, on March 26, 1876, the son of Daniel and Mary Sullivan Early in life he left the farm and entered the public schools of Delphos later graduating from the high school. Later he at i tended the normal school at Salina, afterwards finishing a complete busl- ness course. For some years he operated a farmers grain elevator which business he abandoned to come to Phoenix in 1901.
 Soon after reaching this city he entered the employ of s. J. Tribolet and afterwards conducted for him self a meat market on South Seventh avenue. On February 3, 1904, he was elected to membership in the Pioneer Hose company, No. l. On May ,, 19O6 he was elected vice president of that company and on May 6, two years later, was chosen president,
 which office he has since held On
 January 6, 1909, he was elected chief of the volunteer department, which position he has also since held. From September 6, 19O5, to January 3, 1907. he was employed as driver of the hose wagon of the fire department, resigning that position to go to Los Angeles where he remained about one year
 Returning to Phoenix he became a member of the Phoenix police force continuing as an officer for some
 thing over two years and making for
 himself an enviable record and un told number of friends. During the time he was employed as a police officer, he retained the position of fire chief and was recognized by the city council in that office, being placed upon a nominal salary while holding the two positions.
 When the Hotel Adams was de- stroyed in 1910, it became apparent that the Phoenix fire department had grown to the extent that it required
 an active head. Before the ashes
 had cooled, the city council appoint ed MT. Sullivan as the active, work ing head of the department and
 placed him upon full salary That
 the confidence then reposed in him
 was not misplaced was proven by
 the good work he accomplished in
 the years following He had taken the department when there were none but horse drawn vehicles and saw it grow to one of the best in the south
 west with complete auto equipment
 and with three stations instead of
 one. The paid department also grew

Where the People
 May Have Hearing
THE NIGGER"

To the Editor of the Republican,
 Sir: Apropos of the article Tn todays Republican anent the op- position of the colored people of Phoenix to the production here of the photoplay called The Nigger, want to correct several statements contained therein.
 First, it is stated that this film has been shown in every large city in the United States. This l deny most emphaticaIy and will cite q few instances.
 It was suppressed in Toledo, Oho, by Mayor Keller. after delegation of white and colored people had pro tested against it.
 Mayor Wallace c. Nye, of Min neapolis. Minn., prohibited it's being shown in that city, saying Anything should be barred that tends to arouse racial prejudices."
 The mayor of Cincinnati, Ohio, labeled it a riot breeder" and re- fused to let it Re shown there.
 We oppose it's being shown here because it's very title is an insult to every law-abiding and self-respecting colored man.
 A white lady writing to the mayor of New York in regard to a similar play said, Ut is a malicious and mercenary attempt to reopen old sores, reawaken old hatreds between the north and south. It prejudices by Q false presentment of the slave of the past and makes progress hard CT for the already unjustly handi- capped freeman of today"
 Dr. Booker T. Washington says,
