OUR FRIEND.

The Star desires to call your spe-
cial attention to the candidacy of Hon.
F. J. KNAUSS, who is a candidate
for reelection to the State Senator.
He stood squarely for the colored peo-
pie in the last Legislature and will
continue to do so. Protect your in.
terests and vote for Senator Knauss
November 9Th. "One Good Term De-
serves Another" Do you remember
the Full Crew bill and the Anti-Tip-
ping Bill? Do you know to whom the
Star went to kill the measure and
who stood by us? 1t was our tried
and true friend. Hon. F. j. knauss
One good turn deserves another lie
helped us when we. needed him and
help him now.
The Denver star., 1918-10-26

The Star is very gratified to see the
different candidates dropping in the
Five Point Headquarters and giving
word of encouragement to both Chair
man Geo. w. Gross and his lady as
sistants consisting of Mesdames Ida
DePriest, secretary; Mrs. Mabel Fall
ings, vice chairman and Mrs. Claire
Smith, stenographer. Congressman
Vaile brought up box Of cigars and
two boxes of delicious chocolates for
the ladies who enjoed the treat and
appreciation Of his thoughtfulness.
This is what really counts, "A little
drop of water, little grain of sand,
can make mighty ocean In a pleas
ant land" Recognition Of Negro abil-
ity and talent and the proper appreci-
alton of the same will give more stim-
ulus to a person than all the dollars
and smiles with no sincerity back OF
it. 1t would not be bad idea IL more
of the candidates would avail them
selves OF this opportunity and actually
see that the Negro is worth while, as
he busily engages himself in the cleo
tion fthe ticket 1t looks as II real
recognition will surely come, If the
ticket Is elected. Negroes, get busy.
The Star thanks Congressman Vaile

The difference between the Gold
Dust Twins" Republicans, and the
Coal Dust Twins Democratic, is
that the former scours, cleans, bright
ems and purifies things which have be-
come dirty and unclean while the lat
ter dulls, pollutes, corrupts and black
ems everything it touches rendering
it thereafter obnoxious and useless.
Phipps and Shoup will bring business
success and prosperity to this state,
while Shafroth and lyman will bring
stagnation, disloyalty, trouble and
mob rule, blackening with the coal
dust of bootlegging the fair name of
Colorado. Negroes. resent this by
talking everywhere to anybody about
electing Phipps and Shoup. Let the
world know that such an intended and
attempted slur or insult to your race
may be funny to the Bolsheviki, l. w.
w. Socialistic, Democrats, but you
regard it as a serious matter. Next
time gently impress them to speak OF
their conglomerate mass of isms as
an Irish Stew" seasoned by Dutch"
Cleanser! If they are with you, urge
them to resent it. Know before you
leave them, just where they stand.
Where you fail by direct application
use mental telepathy and auto-sugges-
tion. Get him convinced or Phipps
and Shoup.

THE REASONS WHIP

Every patriotic citizen should at
this time give his best efforts to the
efficient prosecution of the war for
human liberty across the seas. Every
American citizen must stand shoulder
to shoulder with his brother with alb
solute unity of purpose and action
for speedy and decisive victory for
humanity In this most tragic time
in the history of the world, when our
government Is standing for the honor
and the rights of our country we
must be Americans first, and must re
member that this war is not politi
cal question
In our political life and action, we
mIy hold widely divergent opinions
as to principles and policies, but there
can be no division among us in the
one purpose of successfully prosecut-
ing this war, and securing to our
selves and to the world lasting
peace. No political party or candidate
for office has the right to demand or
receive any political advantage be-
cause OF the war. The party or can
didate making such claim should
meet with overwhelming defeat. The
whole American people are supporting
this war, and every class and condi-
ton of people are bearing it's burdens.
After the war must come recon-
struction, and the problems of read
justment to the new conditions may
be greater than those of the war it
self. Congress has granted vast pow
ers to the executive branch of the
government, as necessary war meas
ures. and 1t is already beginning to be
apparent that the restoration of those
powers to the people will involve ques-
tions of the greatest economic and po-
litical consequences in the years i'm
mediately to follow. These condi
tions must be met with the highest
spirit of patriotism. and with the
broadest views. and with proper re-
spect for the coonstitution and the
rights of the individual.
The time is coming when labor will
be out of employment, when millions
now engaged in war activities will be
compelled to seek other lines of bust
ness. when the burdens of an enorm-
GUS interest-bearing public debt. which
must be paid, will fall still more heav-
lily upon the country, and to meet
these conditions the country demands
the return OF the Republican party to
power in the nation, in order to pre-
pare for them, and the time to begin
to prepare for these things is now, by
the election of Republican Congress
this fall The people of this country
have confidence in the Republican
party as the one great political organ
fZation with the ability to adjust all
conditions and meet all emergencies.
Its record Of real service to all the
people constitutes the hrfRhtest mage
OF American history.
The strength and power of this re-
public was built up under the rule of
the Republican party. Our national
policy Of protective tariff laid the
foundation Of the Industries which
constitute SO large a part of our ma
terfal wealth, and which now enable
this country to be the deciding factor
in the war. Opposition to the presi-
dents war measures in Congress has
come principally from members Of his
own party.

Though they are too old to fight,
yet Messrs. Phipps and Shoup will
ingly, fully and freely, without any
favoritism gave up their dear ones,
their means, time and energy to the
war, besides having their best mo-
tives for service impunged to serve
Old Glory. Do you think that either
our wealthy men or women could have
been induced, or even coaxed into the
war, were 1t not for the necessities
created by it? Every true red-blooded
American who believes in loyalty and
patriotism will fight for justice to
every one. and will repudiate any
such rot as class against class.
Let every Negro talk louder and
faster for Phipps and Shoup called
Gold Dust Twins to reflect upon
our race. that oyu might appee Sc

that the Democratic party ought to be

FOR THE YOUNG GIRLS ROOM
Attractive Substitutes May Be Found
for Silver Toilet Sets That May
Be Found Too Expensive.

The little girls dressing table Is
often the cause of much perpleHty.
Sister wants toilet articles like the
grown-ups of the family, but silver
brushes, combs, and powder boxes are
not for the extremely young. Mothers
often find the price Is beyond what
can be spent on the younger members
Of the family's extras" and more
often these mothers feel that the care
the silver articles would receive would
not justify their purpose.
However. interest in her own room
and possessions must be stimulated
In the little girl, and cheaper sub
st1tute for the silver toilet set can be
found.
Possibly she already possesses an
Imitation ivory set II so. use that as
the foundation. II she does not pos
sess one, they will be found at rea-
sonable prices in the shops. If sister
is nimble with her fingers she may
paint on the back Of the brush and on
the top Of the powder box, ETC., &C.
sign Of fowers-possibly copied from
the cretonne hangings. II the task Is
too much for little fingers, surely some
older member of the family could &C
complish It for her. Little sisters de-
Hight at her lovely toilet set" would
be plenty Of recompense for the trou-
bic.
Sometimes one will find that medi-
cine used in a house has been deliv-
cred In bottle Of good design. Do
not throw these bottles away when
you have used their contents. II they
possess glass shoppers. scald them out,
paint q design on their sides, stripe
them with some gay cOlOrs, and 10 and
behold they are transformed into a
toilet bottle. A set of such bottles
decorated to match the design on the
brush and comb would make q de-
lightful addition to the young girls
dresser.
