California Eagle

The Eagle Is Making Its Final And Biggest Fight For Those Candidates Who Will Best Serve The People. UP THE STATE WITH OUR POLITICAL HOROSCOPE Volume 27 The Ea For UP THE STATE W OUR POLITI THE POLITICAL SITUATION THROUGHOUT THE STATE BY J. B. BASS. Our last trip, extending from Los Angeles to Solano county, was a hurried one which we took to get before our people in the various committees the merits of the aspirants for political preferment. Our first stop was at Bakersfield, in which place we find that the colored citizens are wide awake to the issues that confront them, and under the leadership of H. S Houstin, E. W. Winters, H. S Simpson, Mr. Maxwell, Mr. Collins, Maj. West, F. E. Washington, and others, they are doing a great work for the continued progress of the race—not only along political lines—but along all the avenues for racial uplift. Mr. A. J. Jastro of the Kern Co. Land Co. of this city, is one of the citizens thereof who stands for a square deal for everyone, and his interest in the welfare of our race is, and always has been, keen. He stands for a square deal for everyone, and his interest in our race is and always has been keen. He stands for justice to all, in his official capacity. As one of the supervisors of the county, he has always and on all occasions stood for the people. Such men as Mr. Jastro, The Eagle is always glad to speak up for—for in the great struggle we have had to reach the heights that we have attained, we have always needed strong men of the opposite race with us, so that we can truly say that Mr. Jastro, who is one of the strong forces of Kern county, has always been a friend to the race, and our people will do well to remain as they are—loyal to his political interests and give him their hearty support. If he has been a friend of the race in the past, there is no reason to believe that he will not continue to be so in the future. We, as a people, are not ungrateful, and as a mark of appreciation, we are strong for Mr. Jastro's administration. IN TULARE COUNTY. Our next stop was Allensworth, the colored colony in Tulare county. Here they have an election for the newly credited judicial districts, at which they will elect a Justice of the Peace and constable. There is a keen rivalry between the two candidates for each place, that of Justice and of Constable. Oscar Overr, one of the leading spirits of the colony, is a strong contender for the office, as stated above. He is eminently qualified to hold this position. The writer has known Mr. Overr ormany years and can say of him that in every phase of life he has been a credit, a man who stands for progress and uplift; his judgment in business affairs have been tested and he has made good, and if elected to this position he will reflect great credit—not only on the people who place him in this position, but upon himself as well. Before coming to California, as N. 43 The California Eagle a resident of Topeka, Kansas, Mr. Overr has always taken an active part in all affairs tending to the progress of the race and he was among the first citizens of the Commonwealth. Mr. Overr is one of those whole-hearted men who are so essential and beneficial. As a contractor and rancher, he has handled large business and has from time to time has employed a number of persons in the execution of these contracts. He has shown not only executive but judicial ability. During 1913, when the citizens of Allensworth were conducting their suit against the Pacific Farming Co. Overr was the man who had direct charge of affairs, and Attorney Russell paid him the compliment of showing a judicial ability that was remarkable. Mr. Hindsman for Justice of the Peace. Mr. Hindsman, leading merchant and progressive citizen of Allenst worth, is also an aspirant for judicial honors at Allensworth, and has quite a few who are giving him a hearty support. Mr. Hindsman is a wide-awake citizen and one of the leading spirits of the colony, conducts a business there which is a credit and no doubt, if elected, will fill the position with signal ability and honor. Prominent Allensworth Merchant, Mr. Zebedee M. Hinsman, was born in Palmetto, Campbell Co., Ga., 1871. At the age of 8 years he began work on a farm, here he worked until 17 years of age, in the meantime attended and finished the highest school for colored pupils, and heading his class. From there he went to Alamaba and from there to Kentucky and Tennessee and engaged in the barber and restaurant businesses until 1893; then went to Illinois to work with men in the mines; promoted the organization here of a brass band which was known as the "K. P. Band of Iowa." He was married June 6, 1900, to Miss Sara Miller of Cleveland, Iowa, where he conducted a general store—also one at Enterprise. After returning from a visit to the old home in Georgia, he again started business at Albia, Iowa. Selling out here, he came, in 1909, to Allensworth, where he conducts a general merchandise business, carrying a stock of about $7,500, fair rating at Bradstreet's and Dun's. He is a notary public and an underwriter of insurance for the home co. of New York. Los Angeles, Cal., AUG. 15, 1914 WQRTHY OF A STRONG SUPPORT FROM ALL CLASSES The Eagle is strong in its support of Mrs. Helen K. Williams for Lieutenant-Governor at the primaries on August 26th, and we urge our readers to give her a hearty support. Take it from us that she is a woman who is in every way worthy of the same. The woman is taking her place in American politics today; and who knows but that as in the case of HARRIET BEECHER STOWE and of SOJOURNER TRUTH, who accomplished so much for human liberty, that the women in this State when given the opportunity will see to it that every human will come into its own. We known Mrs. Williams stands for all of these things and for that reason and her ability to fill this office are giving to her our support. William Henry Dotson for Constable. For constable for this newly created district, W. H. Dotson, whose cut accompanies this article, is a strong contender, and his friends are urging his election. Mr. Dotson was born in Frankfort, Ky., in 1869. At the age of 10 years he left Indianapolis, where he was engaged in the restaurant business, and later, in Chicago, in the same business. In 1900 we landed in Oakland, Cal., where he was engaged in business for twelve years, when he sold out to become one of the pioneers in the Allensworth colony. Mr. Dotson has served the people faithfully and well as a Deputy Constable and is now engaged in the poultry business. WQRTHY OF A STRONG CLASSE The Eagle is strong in K. Williams for Lieutenants on August 26th, and with her a hearty support. The woman who is in every way woman is taking her place and who knows but that as BEECHER STOWE and a who accomplished so much women in this State when see to it that every human known Mrs. Williams stands and for that reason and her giving to her our support. Mr. Elmer Lee Carter for Constable. Among the candidates for office is one of our young men, Mr. Elmer Lee Carter. Mr. Carter is well known among the people here, he being one of the early settlers, coming about four years ago from Denver, Col. He was born 25 years ago at Fayette, Missouri. He asks your votes at the primaries, August 25, 1914, No doubt exists as to his ability to fill the hoffice to which ha aspires and his friends are urging his election. So this is the lineup for the only judicial district in the State controlled solely by colored voters here's hoping the best man wins. Mrs. M. Gross, the Eagle correspondent, conducts a drug store and is a wide awake business wom- AD. Our next stop was at Visalia, with our old friend, Tony Love; we Passed a hot day, but he never tired of feasting us. We also met Sheriff W. Collins, who is one of the finest officers of the State. tional. A staunch Republican is he, and all along the line we aim to put the Republicans on their guard: he is worthy of the support of any people. From Visalia we jumped to San Francisco, where we met Mrs. Helen K. Williams, Republican candidate for Lietuvenant Governor. We found her to be a very affable and pleasant woman who is a friend to all of the people. She is in every way worthy of the support of the colored voters of the state, and we would make no mistake by voting for her as a unit. She is making an active campaign and The Eagle will give to her a strong support for the position. We visited San Jose. We found our people here in a receptive mood for word as to how things political were shaping in the state, met many of the people and found them all progressing nicely. Going to Oakland, we met the Progressive Club, of which Mr Walter Butler is president and Mr Chas. Jamison and others, the lead ing lights. We addressed the club and find that they stand truly for race progress, and found a responsive chord to our suggestion for a state-wide get-together movement. We expect great results from our visit to this very laudable organization. From here we journeyed to Vallejo, in colano county. We met many of the leading citizens. Our BING SUPPORT FROM ALL USES in its support of Mrs. Helen Ant-Governor at the primar- ive urge our readers to give take it from us that she is a very worthy of the same. The in American politics today; is in the case of HARRIET of SOJOURNER TRUTH, for human liberty, that the given the opportunity will will come into its own. We binds for all of these things or ability to fill this office are people are here in large numbers— many of them are employed in the Navy Yard. We spoke at the Baptist church and arranged for a return date Mr. C. E. Cooper showed us every courtesy. We met the genial Sheriff, J. J. McDonald, who is one of the finest men it has ever been our pleasure to meet, and we do not hesitate to ask our people to give their support to such men as Sheriff McDonald of Solano county. From here we journed to Stockton. We attended the gathering at the A. M. E. church and addressed the people of Stockton We met many of our readers, who complimented us on the improved Eagle, and many of the aspirants for political preferment. [See Stockton article on another page.] From here we journeyed to Modesto. We met our friend W. E. Crow. For a few hours he impressed on us how necessary it was for our people to support Chas. D ```markdown ``` Swan for State Treasurer. We also met Mr. T. F. Kiernan, who is a leading candidate for the office of Sheriff of Stanislaus Co. We found him to be a very excellent gentleman, who was willing to give to the colored people of that county recognition through their own journal. He gave us his announcement card and stated that, if elected, he should give to every citizen a fair and square deal. Mr. Kiernan lives at Salida and has had many years' experience as an officer, and no doubt—if nominat d and elected—he will make a fine record as the Sheriff of this county. From here we wired our Fresno correspondent to meet us as we passed through his city, and landed back home last Sunday at 8 a. WHAT WE ASK OF CANDIDATES In his address in Independence Hall, Philadelphia, July 4th, the President of the United States delivered a most remarkable address. In it he said, among other things: "We set up this nation and we propose to set it up on the rights of man. We did not name any differences between one race and another; we did not set up any barriers against any particular race or people, but opened our gates to the world, and said, all men who wish to be free come to us and they will be welcome." This utterance of the President of this Republic is a fine, clean lesson in patriotism; but every man knows that the history of the Democratic party, of which the President is the chief representative, has been, and is today, opposed to any such conception of Americanism wherever the Negro citizen is concerned. "True Americanism does not set up barriers against any race or people," says the President. How does this statement harmonize with the cruel disfranchisement of the Negro in the Southern States; with the wholesale segregation movement wherever the party of Mr. Wilson is in power; with the Jim Crow car laws in Democratic territory; with the scant educational provisions made for Negroes in Democratic states with the fact that there is not a single Negro in Congress, not a single Negro in West Point or Annapolis, and with the wholesale dismissal of Negroes from Federal positions, all on account of race? The foreigners who have been invited to this country by the sentiment so eloquently expressed by the President have furnished the land with disturbers of the labor forces, anarchists, murderers, some of them bold enough to assassinate presidents of the Republic; but they have been granted every right and privilege under the flag, while the ten million loyal, faithful, generous-hearted, patriotic Negroes, who, from the day that brave Crispus Attucks fell in King street, Boston, have fought for the flag in every battle of this nation and proven themselves a veritable tower of strength in the bulwark of national defense, have been denied political rights and subjected to untold humiliation. I would ask the President, is the ignorant, vicious, red-handed bomb thrower from Europe to receive more consideration at the hands of this nation simply because his skin is white, than the well trained, highly educated native-born Negro, simply because his skin is black? The lamentable thing about the whole situation is that strong America, strong in brains, strong in natural resources, strong in financial prestige, strong in ideals, should con- Number 26 Fight people. EXANDER TICAL OUTLOOK tinue to be the oppressor of the Negro who has never laid a finger in the way of American progress, who has answered "present" to every call who has furnished the brawn, the sweat, and muscle which has caused the land of the South to blossom as the rose. The Negro race in the United States represents a strange, new psychological problem. Handicapped, ignored, mistreated, segregated, discriminated against, oppressed, mobbed—this race has kept its shining face above the seething vortex of cruelty, wrong and misery and by an unshadowed smile, won and is still winning, in the battle of life. It clings to our flag with a tenacity and devotion that is altogether admirable. The patriotism of the Negro cannot be questioned. Patriotism is, with him, a Christian virtue. Of all Americans he is among the truest. In this campaign, as in every campaign the Negro asks but few questions of those seeking political honors. These questions are: What are your principles? What are your sympathies as regards the Negro? What will you do to help put a stop to unjust discrimination? What is your attitude on the question of the Negro's civil and economic rights? What will you do to secure fair and square treatment of the Negro in all the walks of life? These are the questions which the Negro citizen asks of candidates, and who can blame him? RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED BY COLORED CITIZENS IN NORMANDIE HALL Friday Evening, Aug. 7, 1914 Whereas, the people of the United States, in their organized capacity, constitute a nation, and Whereas, from its very birth the great Republican Party pledged itself to the principles of complete liberty, justice and exact equality of all citizens, regardless of race or color, throughout the nation, and Whereas, the Hon. Samuel M. Shortridge, candidate for United States Senator from the State of California, represents honestly and sincerely the exalted principles of the Republican Party, and Whereas, for over thirty years he has courageously preached the doctrine of liberty, equality, fraternity and justice from one end of the great state of California to the other, thus endearing himself to all fair-minded, patriotic citizens of every race variety and Whereas, the Hon. Samuel M. Shortridge has shown his appreciation of the Negro's part in the upbuilding of this nation, and recognized at every turn the self-sacrificing patriotism, heroic valor and undying devotion of the Negro to our Republican institutions under the most adverse, discouraging and trying conditions, and Whereas, the Hon. Samuel M. Shortridge has always evinced a loyalty and sincere friendship for the colored people unique in this great state, pleading their cause in the most forceful, eloquent and convincing fashion, and in such conspicuous forums as to give him a place quite alone in the public eye, and Whereas, he has always denounced lawlessness, discrimination, injustice and mob violence, demanding fair play and square dealing, be it Resolved, That we, the colored citizens here assembled, desire to show our appreciation to this noble advocate of justice—this big-souled, generous-hearted public benefactor—this distinguished champion of human rights, by pledging to him and the Republican Party our loyal support; and be it further Resolved, That we will un- Continued on page 89 [Portrait of a man in formal attire with a mustache and a high-collared shirt.

Peck Has Great Day At Oakland For Old Folk From one of our Oakland correspondents comes the following account of Old Folks days held in that city on last Sunday. We know even at this distance the largeness of the same. This day originated, we understand, in the fertile brain of the brilliant pastor, Dr. F. J. Peck, and has been made a notable occasion. Wherever he may go it is a great boon to the old veterans of Christianity, and without respect to church or creed they meet together on these occasions to Dr. F. J. Peck Has Great Day worship and to recount reminiscences of their past life. The churches and the people throughout the country appreciate Dr. Peck for his great idea and are going to perpetuate the day forever and ever. Dr. N. P. Gregg of this city is also to be complimented on keeping this day and for the highly creditable manner in which he conducted it a few Sundays ago. Oakland, Cal., Aug. 9, 1914. Oakland had for the first time today what is known as "Old Folks' Day." It was held in the First A. M. E. Church, of which Rev. Peck is the pastor. The church was dressed in choice HON. C. D. SWAN OF MODES TO. CAL (President Union Savings Bank) Republican Candidate for State Treasurer The colored voters of Modesto in Stanislaus county, are high in their praises of Mr. Chas. D. Swan for the office of state treasurer, and they want the 50,000 colored voters of the state to know that he is a staunch friend who has on many occasions gone out of his way to befriend them. They cite individual cases too numerous to mention, and when the colored people of Modesto were struggling to pay for their homes and the heavy assessment on account of improvements was levied, the same drawing big interest, Mr. Swan came to their relief by taking up the bonds and for a nominaf rate of interest gave them all the time they asked to pay up. For these and many other qualities the Eagle has been requested to make it known to the colored voters what kind of a man Mr. Swan is and his attitude toward a struggling race. They ask for him at the hands of the colored voters a hearty support for in his success our people will have at the state capital a man who is truly the friend of all of the people. ASSEMBLYMAN FRANK H MOUSER Two years ago the colored voters nearly as a whole voted for Frank H. Mouser for Assemblyman from the Seventy-fourth district, and they have no cause to feel they made a mistake. He took with him to the Assembly Rev. D. R. Jones, and over the protest of his legislative colleagues appointed him an assistant sergeant-at-arms—armed a Negro with police authority upon the floor of the Assembly; gave a Negro the authority to bring in or eject an assemblyman ```markdown ``` rops. AMA Board Streets ORNIA MRS. V. , L. NORTH HEUSTON flowers, and Mrs. Whittaker saw to it that eah old person was given a beautiful bunh of choice white flowers. A special sermon was preached by the pastor at 11 a. m. At 1 p. m. the stewardesses invited all the aged to the dining room where tables had been arranged to seat twenty-five at a time to a good dinner. At 2 o'clock all went to the audience room where Father Pointer led the speaking meeting. Well, it was a time and sight that no one can describe. It was a task at 4 p. m. to beg them to stop and start for their homes. Many brought ay At Oakland For Old Folks them on the street cars, but Bro. John A. Wilds had seen well to it that all who wanted to could come and return in the bets autos that money would hire. Many were the kind words said of Rev. Peck for having such a day and many were the requests from the aged that the day be kept once every three months. It was a glorious day, one that will never be forgotten in Oakland, and many are the prayers of gratitude from the aged to the church choir, committee, John TWELVE 9178 EAGLE 8-14 Hi Wilds, John Ferguson and Rev. Peck for the happy day spent. on the order of the Speaker. Mr. Mouser did not split his allowance of $5.00 per day for attaches, but gave it to one man—a race man. Mr. Jones was the only Negro employed in the Assembly. Then came a time of deep concern to the thoughtful colored cit- PETER H. izen of California. He was threatened with "jim crow schools." Mr. Mouser was written by members of the race. He at once got busy. He promised that no segregation bills would come out of the committee, and they never would be even discussed, debated upon the floor of the Senate or the Assembly, and they never were. It was Mr. Mouser who, during the thirty days' interim, when the legislators met with their Los Angeles constituents in the director's room of the Chamber of Commerce to permit them to state their objections to any bills offered in the preliminary session of the Assembly and Senate, that Mr. Mouser put himself on record as opposed to all "jim crow" legislation, and called on his legislative colleagues to do the same. They did place themselves on record before the committee of representative race people sent to express the wishes of the race. --- ```markdown ``` The Colored Boys Friend 537 Broadway We do your work promptly and give you good service. The defeat of Frank H. Mouser will be a victory of race prejudice. His defeat means, not the election of a Negro, but the defeat of Mouser. Then it can be said, "I told you so; it don't pay for a white man to espouse the cause of the Negroes." The defeat of Mr. Mouser at the hands of this race will be reactionary; we will here-after signally fail to find a man to defend us in our rights, because all men will find out we are unappreciative—that we are ungrateful A. WEABER Candidate for COUNTY TREASURER Subject to the action of the voters at the Primary Election, Aug. 25, 1914 EDITH F. COONS (Incumbent) Candidate for County Assessor, subject to the voters at the Primary Election August 25, 1914, Last Sunday was an encouraging day to Providence. The church was crowded all day. Pastor Williams preached as he has never since he came to California. There were two accessions to the church. Next Sunday the pastor will preach at both services. Morning, "Christian Witnesses. Evening, "Womans Place in the Evangelization of the World. Hear these short and instructive sermons by this oratorical prince and preacher. Providence's Baptismal services, held at Tabernacle church, last Wednesday evening, was a beautiful success. The music school, which opened last Thursday, the 13th, gave brilliant promise. There were four for the violin, two for the cornet, one for the saxophone, two clarinet, one trombone, one flute, one harp, three for voice culture, and eleven for the piano. Providence believes that all of the powers of men should be trained to the glory of God. There are other departments to open soon. Prof. J. W. Baker, who was for years director of the Chicago Musical University, is in charge of the music school, assisted by Mrs. A. C. Williams, who finished from the music school of Atlanta University and studied under Prof. Kruger, the great German instructor, who made a singular name as a musical genius. For information call Main 6802. At the A. M. E. Zion church last Sunday morning the pastor preached the first division of the subject, "Association and Its Consequent Results," this division being the association of the wise. Next Sunday morning he will preach from the second division, "The Association of Fools." Last Sunday morning a large crowd attended the service and confessed that they were much benefited by the service. Last Monday evening, Class No. 6 served a chicken dinner in the basement of the church which was largely patronized by the friends of the church and was admitted by all to be one of the most creditable church dinners they ever attended. The only thing about the whole affair to be regetted was that the committee found their supply insufficient for the demand and many who came could not be served. The service was tiptop; why shouldnt it be, with such ladies as Mrs. Matilda Collettt, Mrs. Virginia Venerable and Mrs. Sadie Clayton at the helm. The request was made by several of the patrons that such a dinner be served often, so the first Monday evening in each month you can get a good dinner at the A. M. E. Zion church.

She is contemplating returning home the latter part of the week after a short stay in this city. Mr. Geo. A. Ramsey will leave Wednesday for Los Angeles to transact business for Hon. Hugh Baldwin, candidate for State Superintendent of Public instruction. Mr. Frank Ellis says that he will stay in and give up social sets. (There's a reason, Frank.) Mr. Curtis Miller was quite busy last week with the visiting young ladies. In order to make an engagement with one you had to stay up all night. Curtis, you are some boy. All the visitors having returned home, the boys are once more down to hard work. Miss J. O. Ellis of Coronado is on the sick list, having contracted a cold while auto riding. Mr. Walter Thompson, enterprising and progressive son of the well known Coronado business man, Mr. Gus Thompson, will soon leave San Diego to take up his profession as a ranger. His many friends regret very much of losing Mr. Thompson's presence from the social set. Miss Corona White, the accomplished young artist, was the hostess of many entertainments at her beautiful residence on Wilson street last week. Mr. David Cunningham of Los Angeles has return home after being the guest of Mr. Geo. Ramsey and the Social Club. Mr. Cunningham's personality made such an impression on the young people of San Diego that they regretted very much to see him leave, although all wishing him a safe journey home. Mrs. Gus Thompson, comely mother of Miss Edith Thompson popular and fascinating young lady, gave a moonlight beach party at Coronado in honor of the young visitors last week. Among those present were the Misses Thompson, Everette, White, Campbell, Asbury, Murdocks, Bodgett and the Messrs. Ellis, Ramsey, Miller, Cloud, White, Thompson, Bodgett, Summy and Cunningham. All reported a very pleasant time and expressed their gratitude for the hospitality shown them by Mrs. Thompson. Mrs. John Scott and Mrs. Kelly chaperoned the party. Mr. Dan Cloud will make a visit to Los Angeles next week. Mrs. Haden entertained the Murdock girls at her residence on Sixteenth street Friday evening. The time was spent in whist playing and dancing. All reported a very pleasant time. Mr. Chas. Dodge will leave for school Wednesday. The dance given by the young men was the star event of the season. The young men were in evening dress and the young ladies wore beautiful gowns. The hall was gorgeously decorated under the personal supervision of Mrs. Gus Thompson. Mr. R. Farris and his Panama Orchestra rendered the music. Mr. Alex Moore and Curtis Miller tried to buy out one of our leading confectionery stores Sunday. Later we learned that they were unsuccessful as the train pulled out just as the second load of candy was coming to the station. The Messrs. Geo. Ramsey, Curtis Miller and John Cloud will leave Sunday for Los Angeles. The trio expect to be gone a week. Get the Eagle for society in full bloom. On sale at Moore's Tonsorial Parlors. Owing to the demand for the California Eagle, our only state organ, it will hereafter be on sale at Moore's Tonsorial Parlor on Fourth between G and H.

If you can't "bost," throw the hammer away. SAN DIEGO HORNETS WIN SPECTACULAR GAME Over 800 people saw the Hornets vanish the Cycles Arms baseball nine at National City Sunday. although it took them fifteen innings to demonstrate their superiority over their rivals. The game was featured with spectacular playing. The pitching of Miller Simpson and catching of Carlisle Perry was a thing that will give the fans something to talk about for many moons. This makes the eighth straight victory for the Hornets and under the management of Joe Roberson and Chas. Edwards, proprietors of San Diego's leading billiard hall, we look for them to defeat all teams they play. Our next week's flashes will be straight from the cannon, so look out for the cannon man, as he will be very busy. Candidates beware, the cannon man is here. W. J. Moosholder, candidate for judge of the Superior Court, has a great chance for election. NINE 9178 EAGLE 8-14 Hi Hon. John F. Schwartz (the guard of the treasury) has no opposition. Why. (?) N. M. Fillmore is working night and day. Look out, Coroner candidates. There is liable to be a surprise. J. F. West has the support of all classes and his election to office he aspires is only a matter of days. C. R. Hammond; just how much majority he will have over his opponents we can't say. J. J. McGuinness is making a gallant race for Administrator. H. S. Utley seems to be letting the other candidates do the worrying. Probably there's a reason. Otto Marsh, M. D., candidate for Coroner, says, "When I am elected," etc. (Do you get it?) Dr. Chas. Good, the man for the office he aspires. Joe Myers, popular candidate for Sheriff, says he can't lost. Confidence is great, Joe. Fred Shorthorn will be close, if not on the ticket. Edwin Reed is the busiest man on Broadway. Suppose he was elected to the office he aspires. A. F. Cornell has no chance for defeat. POLITICAL FLASHES H. J. Baldwin, our next Superintendent of Public Instruction, is very busy campaigning the northern part of the state. With his many volunteers working in the southern part, we can't see how Mr. Baldwin can be kept off the ticket. C. L. Chambers has thrown his hat in the ring and begun an earnest campaign. Question: Will he win. Answer: In a walk. Harry Hubbell is making the most noise of any candidate. Will he receive the most votes? Hon. L. R. Kirby, the man for the race, aspiring the office of judgeship. We are proud to endorse Mr. Kirby, as we know him to be fair and square. A heart to heart talk with the voters: Elect Hon. L. R. Kirby. Geo. Butler. Enough said. It looks like C. E. McDuell will carry nine-tenths of the precincts. More than 100 autos have already been offered to Mr. McDuell for his disposal on August 25th. Remember, voters, McDuell for Sheriff. A word to the wise is sufficient. T. J. Fisher still has the smile. His famous word, "How are you, neighbor," still reigns. Chas. Crouch is going at the rate of a mile a minute. Can he keep it up until the primaries? H. P. Wade, candidate for constable, is making a winning race for the above mentioned office, and we are sure he will be successful. HAS THE SMILE THAT WON'T COME OFF Mr. Walter Meadows, popuair jeweler of Sixth street, was seen at an early hour walking the street greeting his many friends with a smile of enthusiasm. Not until late in the day did people know what had made Mr. Meadows so happy. Finally the Eagle reporter got him i na corner and he confessed that the stork had visited his home at 5:30 a.m., leaving a handsome baby girl. Both mother and baby are doing nicely. aaa ell Sy) eee Ser eee nt Sor at nS —— ‘AN cotmmuntcations should be afdresse¢ to The Callfornia Eagle, 1034 East Ninth Streets. \ Entered as second-class mail matter at the Postoffice of Los Angeles, Cal., under te Act of March 1.1879, —— C.

We are preparing an article for next week's issue giving an opin- ion from some of the leading members of the bar of this city, as to the right of the police commis- sioners to make it a rule that re- fusal on part of parties holding license from them for public places, to serve any person on ac- count of race or color would be cause to revoke such license. If this be true, any Negro who would support any member of that commission for any office would surely be voting for the Jim Crow methods that are in vogue in many of the public places of this city,at the present time. POLITICAL FLIGHTS Hugh J. Baldwin is making his campaign for the past ten’ days in the north and the reports all along the line are very encourag- ing for his nomination for super- intendent of schools for the state. The Hon. S. M. Shortridge, af- ter spending a few days in the city and surrounding towns, left on his tour of the San Joaquin valley. “Indications all along the line point strong for his nomina- tion. We journeyed to San Diego and addressed the colored citizens of that city. They are strong for Fredericks and Shortridge . Vincent Morgan should. look elsewhere than to the colored vo- ters for support As police com- missioner he has made no move to protect all of the citizens of this city in their rights. Hon. Vincent Hannon is mak- ing a strong impression every- where he appears and it is gener- ally conceded that he will be a winner at the primaries. Judge Arthur D. Moore made a great hit at the big 9th’st rally and the boys will all bost for him to win. Geo. P. Andrews of Fresno county deserves the hearty sup- port of our people for public ad- ministrator He has made a good officer and he is a friend to our race.. He is a patron of this pa- per and has been for some time, and we ask our Fresno readers to give him their supporting ‘The same holds good of Judge Smith, justice of the peace, and ‘of Geo. M. Boles, «for tax collec- tor. They are good men who en- courage your enterprises and in all cases such as this. remember those who give you recognition. Vote for them, they are all right. Justice F. M. Angellotti is mak- ‘end of the’ state, Having reached Los Angeles Monday. he is not conducting a campaign; but leav- ing this to his friends. It was at the request of these friends that he is making the visit, the com- mittee having thought it desira- ble that the people should have a chance to see the man whom they are asked to elect to the position of Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. Before election to the Supreme Court by a majority of 50,000, An- gellotti had been superior judge of Marin county, and there won a wide reputation, which was in part the explanation of his over- whelming triumph then. That his majority this year will be any less his friends see no reason to predict. Reports made by friends of Ed: W. Hopkins, county assessor, who is a candidate to succeed himself in that important office, declare that he will be elected at the pri- maries, August 25, There are but two candidates for the county assessorship, so that one of them is certain to receive a majority vote at the coming contest. By reason of the fact that Mr. Hop- kins is incumbent and has made such an excellent record in the seven years that he has held the office and because of his wide ac- quaintanceship in both Los An- geles city and county ‘he has a host of followers, all of whom are active in his behalf. EDWARD HYATT, SUPT. OF PUBLIC INSTRUCTION ‘The schools of California have made rapid strides during the in- cumbency of Supt. Hyatt. Teach. ers pensions, free text books and a strengthening of the school cur- riculum’ are among the numerous improvements of his term. Especially meritorious _ have been the circulars and bulletins issued by him. They are sought and used by other states and in one instance the U. S. school com- mission asked for 30,000 to be dis- tributed from his office. He has been a faithful servant and merits re-election. F. G. RANDLE MAKING A STRONG SHOWING FOR SUPERVISOR OF FIRST eee Colored voters in the first su- pervisoral district are rallying to the support of F. G. Randle for supervisor of the first. district. Out at a monster meeting in Mon- rovia last week they were enthu- siastic for him and he is receiving a strong support in Pasadena. Mr. Randle is a staunch Republi- can and the people all along the line this year are putting Repbli- cans on guard. Among the lead- ing citizens who are supporting Mr. Randle are Mr. James Miller, Williams, Biggs and other work- ers for the race. : UNITE POLITICALLY Mr. J. C. Cooper of Vallejo is doing his utmost in that city to keep up an organization along political lines, to the end that they may in a united form rally to the support of the best men for public office. We hope that the good work which he has started will go on and that the people will continue to rally to his support to the end that the race will take a prominent part in keeping the very best men on guard. J. J. McDONALD For Sheriff of Solano County The candidacy of the present in. cumbent of that office, J. J. Mc- Donald of Vallejo, appeals to our people very strongly and he is re. ceiving a, hearty support. we is a man of the people ; he is a staunch riend of the colored citizens and does not hesitate at any time tc aseist them in their efforts taoc % complish things for the uplift. of the race, It is with more thafPoy- divary pleasure that The Eagle urges ‘our people in’ that county who etand for progress, to give Mr. McDonétd their euppurt.

Phillips of Fresno, candidate for the Republican nomination for state treasurer, came to California in the early seventies. He commenced work as a clerk in a store and soon became a partner in the business. Having been successful as a merchant, he organized the Farmers Bank of Fresno and was at the head of that institution as manager for twelve years. He is now a large fruit grower and dairyman. Is now serving his third term as president of the Fresno County Chamber of Commerce. In this work he has been active in the settlement and upbuilding of his county. Since becoming Republican in 1890 he has always supported its principles and policies from conscientious motives. Believing himself well qualified for the duties of state treasurer he asks the Republicans of the state to place him on the ticket as their nominee. The Fresno Herald, in his home town, has this to say about his aspirations: "W. W.

Phillips is eminently qualified in the essentials of energy, integrity and financial sagacity for the position to which he aspires.

RAMSEY, CORRESPONDENT. JUDGE W. J. MOSSHOLDER In an interview this week with a representative of The California Eagle, one of the prominent attorneys made the following statement concerning Judge Mossholder as a candidate for one of the three judgeships: any other candidate Uniformly kind, o efficient, these are tions of this respect gentleman who now office of Public Adr We can sincerel Mr. McGuinness, ou to the many readers "Judge Mossohlder is a man with a most clear sense of justice and a lawyer who does not hesitate to cut through legal technicalities the following of which might result in injustice, and one whose integrity, ability, and fairness cannot be in the least questioned. In private practice Judge Mossoholder is a faithful, painstaking and a sagacious lawyer. His reasoning faculties coupled with his sterling traits of character and his sense of honor and of his unusual sense of intellectual endowment go to make all the qualifications necessary for an able jurist. By his gentle nature, his kindness of heart and his full sympathy for his fellowman, he has endeared himself to all his associates and to all the members of the bar of San Diego county who have come in contact with him. His mind is eminently judicial, and Judge Mossoholder is a man who is fully able to sit on the bench of any court. "He is fully informed on the laws of this state which knowledge has been developed and advanced by his large and active practice at the bar and he is recognized as one of the most valuable citizens of the state of California. As a resident of the county of San Diego nothing more need be said of his long residence than this, that Judge Mossholder is a just and an upright citizen. "Finally, for the discharge of the duties of a judge of the Superior Court of the County of San Diego, Judge Mossholder possesses a thorough knowledge of legal principles, a broad comprehension of public affairs, ripened with the judgment of active and thoughtful years of practice and an unassailable integrity and high moral purpose." SUCCESSFUL REAL ESTATE MAN ENTERS PUBLIC ADMINSTRATOR RACE "Are you a successful business man?" asks a prominent government statistician and goes on to add, "If so, you are lucky. Figures show that only one man out of every ten who go into business in the United States is successful." It means a great deal when you find a business man who is really successful and has been so for thirty-four years. It means that he has good business sense and judgment and that he knows his business from the bottom up. In fact, he has hosts of friends who swear by him and rely on him. Many of them have relied on him to fill the most sacred of all trusts, that of administering their estates after their death. This side of Arnold's business has grown until he is at present administrator for some of the most important estates in the county In the whole county of San Diego, there is no man more highly esteemed and respected than G. C. Arnold. He has grown up with San Diego and has helped build it up. To old residents he needs no introduction but for the benefit of newcomers it may be said that he has an enviable reputation for honesty and fair dealing. He has always been a friend of the colored people. He is never too busy to help them with his advice and services. San Diego county is forunate in having a man of such caliber as a candidate for one of the most important offices J. J. McGUINNESS Candidate for Public Administrator Among the many candidates aspiring for public office few have received such a public endorsement as J. J. McGuinness, the people's candidate for Public Administrator. Mr. McGuinness enjoys one distinction enjoyed by no other candidate, namely, the endorsement of all races, classes and creeds. It is a common saying among the voters of San Diego county, if we elect Mr. McGuinness as Public Administrator he will conduct that public trust in the same efficient and courteous manner that has characterized the discharge of his duties as Deputy County Clerk, and clerk of the Superior Court, Dept. 1. Mr. McGuinnes sis probably more intimately acquainted with the many reads of this paper than any other candidate for any office. Uniformly kind, courteous, and efficient, these are the qualifications of this respected citizen and gentleman who now aspires to the office of Public Administrator. We can sincerely recommend Mr. McGuinness, our good friend, to the many readers of this paper, knowing full well that on August 25th he will receive an overwhelming majority of the votes cast for that office. Let us, put this man in office whom we know will not discriminate against any class or creed, and who we can safely say will perform his duties efficiently and well. 1930 Mr. Welch is a candidate for the Republican nomination for State Senator for the Fortieth Senatorial District of California. He is a lifelong Republican, never having affiliated with, registered as, or voted with any other party except the Republican party. He has been actively engaged in the practice of law in San Diego for the past four years. Mr. Welch is a native of Michigan. Graduating from the University of Michigan in 1906, he took up the practice of law, to which he has applied himself from that time. He incorporated the cities of La Mesa and El Cajon, and served as the first city attorney of each, also as the first city attorney of East San Diego from its incorporation, in 1912, until recently, when he resigned to enter the political field. His experience in municipal affairs will be of much assistance to him should he be chosen as the next State Senator from this county. Mr. Welch says: "I believe that the office of State Senator should be filled by a man who will exercise a broad outlook upon all matters pertaining to our city, county, state and people. If nominated and elected to that high and important office, I will endeavor to so consider all matters to which my attention is directed and will do my utmost, and seek to be a faithful representative of San Diego county and its entire citizenship and people. "San Diego is the city of my choice; its interests are my interests, its desires my desires, and its ambition my ambition. Public officials should be the representatives of all the people." Mr Welch has a wide acquaintance throughout the entire county, and a host of friends who expect to see him State Senator. If elected, San Diego county will have as its State Senator an efficient official qualified to perform the duties of the office of State Senator and one who will work untiringly for the interests of San Diego county and the State of California. CANDIDATE F or Judge of the Superior Court JUDGE T. L. LEWIS For the last six years Judge Lewis has been one of the judges of our Supreme Court and is now a candidate for the nomination to succeed himself. His services on the bench have been marked with untiring industry and noteworthy ability. His fairness, knowledge of the law and high personal integrity are recognized throughout the county. The selection of the judiciary having been taken out of party politics, Judge Lewis, as well as every other candidate for a judicial office, will come before the people as a non-partisan and it is not doubted that he will receive support from the voters regardless of political affiliation. Sunday afternoon Miss M. Swan 'very important subjects were dis-' entertained a number of yo ung cuessed. The first was: *Ishonor*. VENICE, OCEAN PARK, SANTA MONICA. Miss Della Givens and her company spent part of Sunday in Venice. Among the Venetians who spent Sunday with Angelenos were Misset Mary Buchanon and Hazel Sercey, who were the guests of Mrs. Arthur Adams. Miss Margaret Prince and a lady companion spent Wednesday and Thursday at the La Bonita. The ladies are of the Crown City. On Friday, a week ago, Mrs. S. F. Nichols of Santa Monica gave an entertainment in the interest of the First Baptist Church of Venice. The affair was a financial success. Mr. Leo Presley and his friends were at the Tremont last Friday. The Tremont hotel is increasing in popularity. Quite frequently automobile parties from the city visit the hotels. Among the guests this week are Mrs. H. Williams of Brooklyn, N. Y.; Mrs Floyd and Mr. and Mrs. richard Belsinger of Los Angeles. Phillips Chapel announces a 3- days bazaar, the proceeds of same to go toward clearing the church debt. A Shower for the Bride Eicet. One of the most popular bride-elect of the season is Miss Fannie C. Reese, of 600 San Juan avenue, Venice, whose engagement to Mr. Arthur Adams was announced recently. Seemingly Dame Cupid perched in the arm of Miss Reese's chair, during his first interview and with his bow bent, there was no way of escape for the young Angeleno and the announcement of a few days ago proves how easily he capitulated. The decorations were attractively carried out with pink roses and sprays of pink gladioli, carnations and foliage. The hostess was assisted by Mrs. Simon Sercey. The guests were the Misses Genevieve Anderson and Mabel Sercey, Vivian Harris, Ruby C. Tabor, A. Chatman, Mary Smith, Elsie Geddes, Mr. and Mrs Strother Howard, D. B. Shieffild and others A fortnight ago Mrs. A. L. Reese and Miss Hazel Sercey, entertained at the residence of Miss Sercey, 558 Westminster ave., with a miscellaneous shower in honor of Miss Reese. HANFORD ITEMS Due to the fact that the Hanford correspondent was out of twnn las week, there was no Hanford news in the last issue. Sunday, Aug. 1st, Missos Viola Young. Leuise Robertr and Zeza Abernathy journeyed to Fowler to visit relatives and friends. Eugene Roberts spent the first part of last weeb in Bakersfield filling an engagement. Last Saturday Rev.

Another joyful hay ride was enjoyed by about twenty of the younger set. This time they journeyed out to the Brunson ranch, south of Lemoore, where they enjoyed the hospitality of not only of Mr. and Mrs. Bronson, but also of Riley Colbert and Mr. James. After destroying an abundance of fried chicken, sandwitches, watermelons and ice cream, they departed for home, arriving at 3:30 A.M. A few of Fresno's most prominent men spent Sunday in Hammond visiting their families, who are spending a portion of their summer vacation here. The visitors were Messrs.

Into the hands of a JUDGE is committed the PROPERTY. the LIBERTY and often the LIVES of litigants. A JUDGE should have a well poised mind, to qualify him to render a fair and impartial decision. A JUDGE should have a sound, healthy body, so his decisions may not be biased by his physical disabilities. A JUDGE should live a clean, well ordered life, so his charge to the jury and admonitions to prisoners be morally effective. ELMER R. McDOWELL has been a workingman but believes that though his feet were on the ground and his hands soiled with labor, his real life was in his brain and heart. ELMER R. McDOWELL has an untarnished name and an unblemished record whether he worked on a farm in Illinois, served as a page in the Illinois State Senate, in the United States Government service, as a young man in a lawless mining camp where he formulated laws still operative in Jerome, Arizona.

BAKERSFIELD NOTES Mrs. Edna Price The death of tie beloved wife of Rev. J. W. Price and daughter of Mrs. Huse of Oakland, was a great shock to all her host of friends of both races. Mrs. Price was a great church and Sunday school worker. Her childhood was spent in Oakland. From there to Hanford, Fresno and Fowler, where she taught the children the Christian way, where there was none to poor or down that she would not take the word of Christ and His love. There she organized a choir of young people to sing God's praises. From there to her last home on earth in this city, where she spent so much time in homes where some would not go, she read good work and prayer. The young choir that she taught sang God's prayers in her last service with the morning choir. Take Jesus with you wherever you go. Life wil ble best if in Him you abide. This song she sang more beautiful and with more love and sweetness until the whole congregation felt the inspiration. The presiding Elder Harper spoke of how this song made him feel all God's love and that the choir sang sweeter than ever. Our beloved sister who has gone from us and served so short a time. Services were held in the basement of the new church. Rev. Harber conducted the services. Remarks from Rev. E. E. Bicker, Rev. Walker, Rev. J. G. McPherson.

This will, no doubt, recall previous concerts. Prof. Bynum has selected some exceptionally fine music and is sparing no pains to make it a success. In addition to the city choirs the famous Glenwood Quartet, the Hall Jubilee Singers, and the Harris Sisters will render some of their sweet and charming music. W. M. BYNUM, Director. REV. N. P. GREGGS, Pastor. Dear Editor: While I am not a politician I am a voting citizen of the city, county, State and the United States. And though I be a minister of the gospel, and a leader, at least, of a number of my people, which makes me responsible to a very great degree for their well being, I do not think it out of place to say to my people that there are many candidates in the field for various offices and positions, and many of them are of unquestionable characters of which I have songtight after and found to be true. Such offices as Judges of the Superior Courts; District Attorney, Justice Courts; Assembly, Congress and Sheriff. Among these I have been able to select persons that I can recommend to my people as worthy men of whom I do not think upon such recommending that you would make a mistake in casting a vote for and of whom I take delight in recommending to you as worthy characters.

[Picture of a man] COPYRIGHT | TON, POLITICAL OR \ = OTHERWISE = , Many are those who are in the limelight in Stockton: at ’ this time. The colored voters under the watchful eyes of its leading citizens are taking a critical view of the candidates and some of these same candidates will wake up Wednesday, the 26th inst. much surprised. Rev. J. A. Duncan, pastor o! the A. M. E. Church, is making a great record here, and is in close touch with all of the ele- ments that stand for real prog- ress within the race and out. He has a debtless church here now and promises to keep up the great work, which he has started. Our old friend, Rev. G. W. Reed, is still on deck at the Bap- tist Church and is doing a great work. He’has just finished hold- ing a- successful Chautauqua at Sacramento and is planning 2 trip to Southern California about the 14th inst. Bae he ae oe > a Sey be ae ‘ ae Rey, J. A. Duncan pastor a. M, 7 ghurch Stockton Cal. Among other prominent citt- zens who are taking an_active part in civic affairs are Messrs. Burrows, Harding, Thomas, Boy- kin, and others too numerous to mention. The Political Situation There are here, as elsewhere, many aspirants for political hon- ors, and as we have stated else- where the colored voters have been analyzing the same and are going to present a united front for their friends, as well as against their enemies. The EAGLE, on account of its large circulation here, has its ears to the grass roots, and we verily believe their opposition to Judge Plummer for re-election is well grounded, as he seems to give them no consideration what- ever. His sentence of King. a friendless and_ defenseless, ignor- ant man, to 25 years was greatly out of place for the enormity of the crime. Many cases have been brought forward of cases more pernicious and exasperating than this, where the judge has been more lenient. And many other things are known wherein it Seems that he has been loath to give them due recognition. For this reason, if it takes the colored yote to make his election sure he will come up at the primaries a sadly disappointed man. On the other hand, Judge F. H. Smith is a man who is rfcog- nized by all as clean cut anggwili- ing to give recognition and‘even- handed justice to all. He will receive a strong support. E. P. FOLTZ For District Attorney District Attorney E. P. Foltz is Known among the colored peo- ple of Stockton to be kind, sym- pathetic and generous to. their race, but all do not know the his- torv back of it all. The District Attorney's father, Sam Foltz, was born in Vir- ginia; his father was” slave- owner; his mother died when he was an infant. A colored mam- my on the plantation had a little baby about the same age as Sam and Sam was nurtured upon the breast of the colored mammy, her infant on one side and Sammie on the other. These babies grew up together, played together, loved each other like brothers, unconscious of any idea that 2 difference in color in their skins made any difference in their souls within. When 10 oF 12 years of age, Sam's father died and_ the slaves were sold by the adminis. trator of the estate. Sam was present when the colored manimy was sold to one person and her little son, Sam’s playmate, was sold to another. The parting of mother and son was most dra- matic-and Sammie joined in their tears and cries. Sam's boyish heart could scarcely recover from that incident; it made a lasting impression upon his life. It made him a strong opponent of slavery In the conduct of the District Attorney’s office; E. P. Foltz ‘has always been just *to the colored man. When they committed crimes he prosecuted them just as hard-as the white man, but there was no suspicion of race prejudice. He convicted one colored boy of manslaughter in a hard-fought legal battle, but after the verdict, when the question came up of whether to send the young man to grison or to the State Schoo! of Industry, when the Court asked the District Attorney for his opinion, Mr. Foltz recom- mended: that the boy should not be sent to prison. 3 He is worthy and will receive a hearty support from the colored voters of Stockton county. JUDGE FRANK H. SMITH (Incumbent) Fee Judge of the Superior Court | We could write volumes of the capabilities and fairness of Judge Smith in the position which he now holds, of the respect he has earned from the citizens of al classes, and the fact that litigants are all anxious to get their causes before him, for they realize if they do so they shall receive 2 square deal. But we shall not attempt to recount all of these things, but as a mark of appreci- ation to the man farthest down we want to go on record as com- mending him as a man whom our people should be proud of the op- portunity of giving him their sup- port. As a race we have made what showing we have by the en- couragement, given us by the best people of the opposite race, and Judge Smith is one of these who is willing at all times to give to us such recognition as we de- serve. For this reason, among many others, he will receive” a united support from this people on August 25th. D. M. YOUNG FOR SUPERIOR JUDGE One of the most popular bar- risters of the San Joaquin Valley in the person of the Hon, D. M Young is deserving of a strong support from our people for Judge of the Superior Court. He is a man who stands for a square deal for all, and his record in this community for fairness and for all of the things that go to make a just judge is his. He is receiving a strong support from all classes, and as he stands for even-handed justice we can say that in giving him your support you will make no mistake. W. H. REICKS For Re-election As Sheriff of San Toaquin County So well has W. H. Reicks filled the position of sheriff of the above county that despite the multiplic- ity of candidates for this position it is freely predicted by many that Riecks will be elected at the prim- aries. Mr. Riecks was reared in Stockton county and is known throughout the length and breadth of the same,as a man who stands for a square deal for every hu- man. The office under his regime has made an enviable record and for this reason the sentiment is strong to elect Mr. Riecks at the primaries. The colored citizens feel that in him they have a friend as he is easy of approach and one of the finest men to meet in the State. And all will do well to give him a unanimous support for re-election for another term. ——— FOR AUDITOR OF SAN JOA- _* QUIN COUNTY For Auditor our people need look no farther for a competent and- appreciative officer for that position than the present incum- bent, John D. Maxey. Mr. Maxey has held this office ith honot and credit. He recog- hesitate ‘to: give them the’ same coaihten through thelt meered ited organ as he does to anyone else. } So the EAGLE delights to commend the candidacy of such men as this, and we ask for him a strong support at the hands of our people. HUGH J. TYE For Justice of the Peace All of our people are for Hugh Tye for Justice of, the Peace of Stockton. And we take great pleastire in presenting his candi- dacy through these columns. | When approached, Mr. Tye without hesitancy said to us, “I am proud to be known as a friend to your people. I am also glad to present my claims for their suff- rage through their organ.” uch meh as Mr. Tye we can well support for public position, land it seems as though everyone whom we met voiced the senti- ment that Mr. Tye would receive the united support of the colored voters for the office to which he aspires. : B. C. WALLACE For Coroner B. C. Wallace, the present effi. cient Coroner, is a candidate for re-election. Now.we all know Mr Wallace as a friend tried and true and when August 25th comes around will not hesitate to show their appreciation by giving him ‘a hearty support for re-election. { se 8 FOR TAX COLLECTOR A good man to vote against is Moore, the present Tax Collector, as he refuses to give recognition in any way our chotts to progress. He informed the Eagle man that was the way he felt about the mat- ter. from page 1 swervingly, unreservedly, and without the slightest equivoca- tion, do all that lies in our power to secure his nomination at the primaries for United States Sen- ator from the State of California, primaries to be held on the twen- ty-fifth day of August, 1914.

INDEPENDENT POLITICAL LEAGUE There will be a meeting called Saturday, August 15th at 51st and Long Beach avenue, better known as the Furlong Tract, for candi- dates for judges only. Our object for this is that judges shape all government and laws. The judges’ position is the most deli- cate in the gift of the people. I believe by getting fair men upon the bench, not only my race will get a fair decision, but also all of the races. As I have always said, I don’t believe that any twelve white men as jurymen and as a states attorney can give or will give my race a fair and im- partial trial. But judges who will put on a jury a man of his color. that man or case will get a fair and impartial trial, because his race will see to it, if there only be one upon that jury. I will state further that after the primaries we shall call the same kind of a meet- ing for the finals, for November 3rd. My people say they must take a stand. L. C. LUK. Doing a Great Work. Out on Central avenué: at the Colored Republican club the old war horse, Capt. G. W. Hawkins president, and Cherley Olivier chairmfn of the executive commit tee, are doing a great work for the Republican candidates.

Zion Baptist cburch last Thursday ¢ve- ning was one of the moet excellent entertainments witnessed in the city for many a day. Under. the splendid management of Mrs. xu; ey, Mrs, Lewis and Miss M. Al- Every number on the program was of such merit that it should go without any attempt at criticism. However, it is well to mention the extraordinary ability shown by Miss albritton. in her singing and Mrs. Lewis’ readings and poses. BAN JOSE NOTES - ARTHUR M.
