Republican Hosts are Getting Ready for the Fray Volume 27 Republic Distinguished DISTINGUISHED COLORED VISITORS IN OUR CITY Informally Entertained by the Kansas-Missouri Club Los Angeles was highly honored this week by the presence in our city of three of the most prominent men of our race in the entire country in the person of Hon. Nelson C. Crews, editor of the Kansas City Star, former clerk of police court of that city, former employee of the interior department of the United States government, noted orator and statesman, and at present Grand Master of the Masonic jurisdiction of the state of Missouri. Accompanying him were Hon. M. O. Ricketts, a practicing physician of St. Joseph, Mo., former member of the legislature of the state of Nebraska, eminent orator and Past Grand Master of the Masonic jurisdiction of the state of Missouri. Dr. Ricketts gained fame by the notable effort he made as a member of the legislature of the state of Nebraska in a speech nominating the Hon. John M. Thurston to the United States senate. He is one of the strong forces at this time in the great middle west With him and Mr. Crews was Geo. W. Love of Kansas City, Mo., who is Grand Secretary of the Masonic body of the jurisdiction of the state of Missouri, who is also the proprietor of the great Love Regalia Company of that state. Mr. Love is prominent in both fraternal and business circles of the middle west. These gentlemen although unexpectedly coming to our city and taking our citizens by surprise, were highly entertained, and during their brief stay of forty-eight hours were kept on the go from the time their presence was known until they left on the Salt Lake at 8 p. m. Friday evening. Aside from being entertained by Mrs. Dora Gamble, Mrs. Hooker, Mrs. Slaphy and others, the Kansas-Missouri Club informally entertained these three distinguished gentlemen at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Hubbard, 1490 West Thirtysixth street. We will give a full account of this feature in our next week's issue HOW CAN RACE PREJU- The above question has been a source of constant agitation for over a half century. It has marred the fair face of civilization; planted the seed of animosity between children of a common Father; stood in the gateway of human progress, and has been the millstone around the neck of struggling humanity. It is today visible in every walk of life. It is oftimes in the temple of justice and has made the court a mockery and justice a usurpation. It has wrapped its deadly fangs around the Christian church, and has done much to impede the true gospel mission. How can this nauseating cancer be removed or extracted from the wound of time? The late Dr. J. C. Price alleged with force and emphasis that prejudice was against conditions and not color. That was more than twenty-five years ago. And yet Dr. Price never saw a jim-crow ```markdown ``` The California Eagle car and all of the legal voters of his race could cast an unrestricted ballot and the same was counted as cast. Less than 44 per cent of his race were illiterate and they never owned one-fourth of the real and personal property that they own today. Now illiteracy has been reduced to less than 30 per cent and the Negroes own approximately $10,000,000 worth of property; yet, in eight states of the Union they have neither voice nor vote. Dr. Booker T. Washington says that industrial education, coupled with the buying of farm lands, will eliminate race prejudice, and is the logical solution for the race problem. Dr. Washington today has the largest industrial institution in the world and for more than a quarter of a century the influence of this institution has permeated the length and breadth of the state of Alabama; and still the Negro is subject to the same cruel treatment in Alabama as he receives in Texas and Louisiana. Frederick Douglas said that the race prejudice could be eliminated by the application of Republican principles. After fifty years of experiment it has proven to be of no avail and the only difference between the Republican and Democratic parties, nationally, is that one is in—the other is out. Bishop Turner, an eminent divine, pointed out Africa as the salvation for his race, and, at the same time, he preferred to remain in Georgia. Prejudice seems to dull our sensibilities. Just a few months ago Mexico was in a state of wrangling discordance. Instead of sympathizing with the ebony-hued dark Republican, we sent thirty warships to invade that country because they failed to salute our flag. We lowered the embargo and furnished the revolutionists ammunition and armaments to overthrow the constitutional government. On the fourth day of October we have a proclamation calling on all American citizens to offer our supplications towards the Great Architect of the Universe for the restoration of peace in the Old World. Now, if prayer is good for Europe, it seems that it should also be good for Mexico. I heartily concur with the chief executive of the United States in issuing that proclamation; not only for October 4, but it might be essential if we would take October 3 to ask the Divine Providence to forgive us of our many shortcomings and our sins of omission and commission. We have allowed prejudice to prompt us to lynch 3298 American citizens in less than thirty-five years. In the fact of these many culminating atrocities, we have stood with folded arms and abated breath and allowed these depredations to continue. Our great ecclesiastical bodies have failed to put themselves on record against these diabolical outrages. Our clergymen allow themselves to feel for popular chords and chase psychological fads. They seem to forget the fact that this is a Chritsian civilization. From the above multiplicity of opinions, none of them seem to bring about the true remedy to eradicate the evil. After many Los Angeles, Cal., OCT. 10, 1914 M. J. H. years of painstaking research, I have come to the conclusion that the above subject can only be eliminated by voluntarily distributing ourselves into the forty-eight states of the Union and our foreign possessions. We should appoint a goodly number of our representative citizens to make a thorough investigation as to the laws of these various states, the climatic conditions, the fertility of the soil, and if these things are found inviting and applicable to our wide extended wants, I believe it would be well for the younger generation of this country to locate in these various states, reducing the ten million population as a mass as we can never become a nation with ten million of us against ninety million of the predominant race, with an increase at the rate of five thousand per day of foreign immigrants. We will always be in the hopeless minority if we remain in masses. So let us go out into the many states of this federal Union and enroll our names in the catalogue of industrial pursuit, allying D. JOSEPH Candidate for Judge of Eagle Urges for Hir ourselves with the moral, intellectual and spiritual forces of this country. Wherever we find a common interest, let that be a common center. Thus we will be able to avoid racial segregation, discrimination and disfranchisement and the chord of common brotherhood will bind us all tighter together; the milk of brotherly kindness will flow luxuriantly in our midst and will be but the ingredients of that magic elixir that will heal all of our common wounds. Race prejudice will hide its diminished head; everything beautiful will blossom and bloom to beautify and adorn the home of a common people; and the ladder to intellectual, industrial and spiritual attainments will be so adjustable until none will cease to rise but those who stubbornly re fuse to climb. EDITOR CALIFORNIA EAGLE: I would not be an alarmist or one to fall down at the feet of any man for having done his duty by his fellows, but when notable acts of brotherly love is shown out of the usual between the people of the native born american races, I submit that they are sign boards in the history of these races that ought not go unnoticed. On Saturday September 26th there occurred in this city, at the 53rd St. A M E. Church, the funeral of Mrs. H. C., Craig, the devoted wife of our fellow townman. Without comment on her long and patient illness and the devotion of her husband and daughter who are left to mourn her death, I want to call attention to one feature of the H COYNE of the Superior Court--- from a Strong Support manager of one of the branches of the Singer Sewing Machine Co. on this city, some months ago the comfortable little home of Mr. and Mrs. Craig was destroyed by fire and they had not been thoughtful enough to carry fire insurance on their building and effects, and al. was destroyed, leaving them almost for a destitute condition. Mr. Craig secured a small loan and bought a bill of jumber and paid out the balance of his cash to mechanics, leaving the building far from completion. Mr. Kennedy and the coterie of office men, all white men, went down to the 54th street homestead and roofed and shingled and weatherboarded that house one day and put these respected friends of theirs beneath their own vine and fig tree, and delivered to them from their own homes furniture and other effects that made them comfortable and at home. This was brotherly love ```markdown ``` that the average man fails to see every day. These Singer Sewing Machine office people have the greatest respect and confidence in Mr. Craig and continue to give him employment. As above stated, Mrs. Craig died and when the news of her death reached these good white folks they did not only send flowers as a token of their love, and render other substantial help, but the manager, Mr. Kennedy, offered his services to act as one of the pall bearers, and although that offer was gracefully declined by Mr. Craig, as there were many willing friends among colored men to serve, Mr. Kennedy went to the parlors of Smith-Williams & Co. and there being a vacancy took his position as a pall bearer, and assisted in the gentle handling of the body of that good woman to its last resting place at Evergreen Cemetery. Let us pause for a moment, forgetting all the ups and downs on the past and with clear mindf view the acts of these good people in acts of charity, and then see this man of affairs leave his busy office, where he is the representative of one of the greatest manufacturing establishments in North America, with men to direct and interests to guard, being actuated by a high sense of duty and a willingness to console the grief of his friend by his presence and words of sympathy, laying aside for an afternoon all these important business matters, and feeling it a distinct honor to render this service, may we not say God still lives in the hearts of the people and manifests his presence through those who love and serve him. It may not be out of place to mention the fact that Mr. Kennedy is not from the East or the North, but is a Southerner, having been reared among Southern environs where he has had a splendid opportunity to appreciate the manly qualities of his neighbor. The Singer Sewing Machine Company may well congratulate itself for having the service of this excellent man and his staff, for the interest of any individual or company will at all times be well guarded with men of this character in charge. F. H. CRUMBLY. NEGROES HOPE IN GOLD COAST Passengeron Steamship Liberia Tella of Back-to-Africa Movement. Havana Post, Sept 20 The Ethiopian Steamship Company's steamship Liberia, with a "Chief and Prince of the Gold Coast, West Africa," and 114 other colored men and women aboard, has been in Havana since the 13th inst., with seven hundred thousand feet of lumber for this port and one hundred thousand dollars' worth of cargo belonging to the passengers, who are members of The Akin Trading Company Limited. The "Back-to-Africa Movement" as the project is called, had its inception in a letter written by Doctor P. J. Dorman, of Mauatee, Oklahoma, who answered an advertisement circulated by an African newspaper concerning "Agricultural Lands in Africa and How to Obtain them." Although Chief Sams and the officials of the ship refuse to be interviewed, D. B. Garrett, a seventy-three years old citizen of Boley, Oklahoma, gave the following meagre data of the company: "Because of lynchings and kindred apprehensions in the United States, thirty thousand of us are determined to go to Africa. To that end, we have selected Chief Alfred C. Sams of the Akim Tribe Gold Coast, West Africa, for our leader and despite the hindrances of the press which caused us much trouble, we are on the road to success as our ship, officered by colored men, attests. "The promises made by Chief Sam and his under chieftains are satisfactory to us and this investigating party now on its way to the richest of the continents, confidently believe that they will find so many good things to report upon favorably that our organization will ongrow our hopes, immediately thereafter." "The present company was organized as 'the Akim Trading Company,' under the laws of South Dakota, March 27, 1913. Our ship, the Liberia, cost two hundred thousand dollars. We do not owe one cent upon her, nor elsewhere, and we will surprise those who have no faith in our ability, by purchasing another one very soon. "When we shall have enough ships to carry the Gold Coast trade, the natives will no longer sell a hat full of gold for a hat full of salt, nor a basketfull of eggs for a drink of so-called gin. "Because the Afro-American newspapers told so many lies about Chief Same, we had great trouble with our state department, the British minister at Washington and the Brit'sh vice consul at New York, but withal, we put our trust in God and have come thus far onquerors. "Our intention is to carry to Africa all who wish to go. We will become missionaries to our brethren there. We will build up ourselves, our children, our brothers and their children, a business, so great that we will command the respect of those who deepse and hinder us because God gave us black skins." (From "The Scrap Book." BY J. D. REYNOLDS Staff Correspondent California Eagle To the Voters of San Diego Co. I beg to thank the people of this county for the large vote received by me at the primary election resulting in my nomination as district attorney. This vote by the people at large has convinced me that they are satisfied with a just and intelligent enforcement of the laws. If re-elected the only promise I make is that I will give to the performance of my official duties the same attention and consideration that I have in the past. I take the position that the only things which should influence a district attorney in the performance of his public duties are his official oath and the laws of the state; that he should not enter up the duties of this important office with any other obligations resting upon him.

Your vote and influence Sincerely, EDW Candidate for General Election Nov. 3 THE ODD FELLOWS Come, let us reason together. The imperfections of our civil and political system, the inequalities of our industrial life, call for readjustment. The pinch of poverty, the pangs of the poor, together with the lament of the lowly and disfranchised, betoken the weakness of our national bulwarks. Are we of this generation to realize a repetition of the fates of history? Is the American Republic destined to follow in the wake of ancient Greece and Rome, to go down in the dust of decay, to be blown about with the sands of the sea? Are the forces gnawing at the vitals of the nation to be permitted to continue their cancerous growth? Right, not might, must be the solvent for the problems demanding solution, even though it be at a sacrifice of innate pride and national traditions. Reason rather than sentiment must serve as the arbiter in our internal dissensions. Individuals may hesitate, political parties may palliate, but outraged motherhood and neglected homes are crying for a relief from the greatest curse of our present civilization—the liquor traffic. I, therefore, declare for constitutional prohibition. I likewise declare for the abolition of the poll tax, the abolition of the property qualificatoin for jurors, the prohibition of the employment of children under 16 years of age, and provisions for state support of such children when necessary. A half holiday on election days. I regard measures as infinitely greater than men, and the protection of the home of paramount consideration in all legislative enactments. I am likewise pledged to those legal enactments which shall ameliorate the condition of the working classes. Candidate for Assemblyman 74th District General Election Nov. 3d Grand Master Morris Replied to All Charges—Masterly Report Wins Friends for Administration Calm After the Storm—Warring Factions Unite—Washington Is Next Place of Leting—Boston Advocate Issues a Creditable Daily. The Grand United Order of Odd Fellows have charge of Boston, and they are here from all parts of the country, and almost every state in the Union is represented. The second day's session was full of interest, and there were many short talks made. There is no effort on the part of Grand Master Morris to keep the men from talking, but declares that every man shall have his rights, and be permitted to have his say. His rulings are fair and impartial, and he is one of the greatest presiding officers in the race, or any other race. There was a little delay in getting opened yesterday morning, but every delegate was on time and took part in the opening. Rev. W. H. Mixon, D. D., of Selma, Ala., led the assembly in singing "Go Preach My Gospel Saith the Lord," and made a fervent prayer for the success of the meeting during the entire session. Immediately following the opening Secretary Needham read the Journal, which was approved, and then followed the first skirmish, so to speak. It was the election of a secretary for the session. In this it was said would be a test of the strength of the administration and anti-administration forces. There were placed in nomination two candidates for the place, and after the roll call W. Randolph Smith, of Chicago, was elected, and J. H. Johnson, of North Carolina was elected assistant secretary. This was victory for the administration. The Grand Lodge at this pointe took recess for dinner. Dr. Mixon prayed at the opening for the afternoon session.

EVARD T. HUBBARD, 1532 East 14th St., Assemblyman 74th District 3d an afternoon session if found necessary. Easily the feature of yesterday could be termed the masterly address delivered by Grand Master E. H. Morris of Chicago. It is not surprising that the master mind should produce such an address. He said some plain things to the Odd Fellows. He set forth the position of the Order. "The Grand United Order of Odd Fellows in America, as well as in other parts of the world is the apostle of liberty, and is the defender of the principles of friendship, love and truth," was the declaration made by Hon. E. H. Morris, of Chicago. "We draw no line or race or color, but all human beings who are worthy are welcome, and in any part of the world you are recognized if you are a member of this Order. We received our charter from England and were the first Odd Fellows in this country." Grand Master Morris scored race prejudice as being inhuman, mean and cruel, and marred the happiness of mankind. He was also opposed to sectionalism, Jim Crowism, segregation and everything else which worked against human beings. Continuing his address he said, "I am not prejudiced against a white man, because many of my clients are white; I am not prejudiced against a Chinaman, an Indian, an Irishman or any other man; with men a man is a man, and as for my people, most of you were born down south and moved up here." In his biennial address Mr Morris touched every phase of the Order, and named some of the men who had been in the way. He scored some of the officers who had not worked in harmony with the administration. At the close of the address the convention took recess until this morning at 10 o'clock. It is thought that there will be a lively time to day when the committee will report on the Grand Master's address. Grand Secretary R. J. Davis of Georgia served notice that he would rise to a question of personal privilege after the reading of the minutes this morning. This is the seventeenth session of the B. M. C., the Grand Household of Ruth, the Grand Staff Council, and Grand Master's WILLIAMS Golden West Lager Beer SOLD BY ALL DEALERS Council. These bodies have brought to the city fully 2000 representative colored men and women from all parts of the country. Thirty-seven states were represented at the opening yesterday morning. Among the delegates were doctors, lawyers, merchants, college presidents and professors, teachers, bankers, farmers, editors, clerks, omestic servants—in fact, every line of business, trade or profession is represented. Men and women from the extreme South, all working with those in this section of the country are a unit for the betterment of their race. the Grand Master is one of the most succited lawyers in the nothing about race co joys a lucrative prairie his clients are some est people of Chicago He is kept busy. I leading spirit in around Chicago for contributed much to the Odd Fellows. mand made that he of Grand Master f It looks that he is go to accept. In that be a few changes in When Grand While the fourth day's session of the B. M. C. convention was short on account of the street parade, yet it was interesting andd important, and will stand out prominent in history. No session ever held by the order will perhaps have a greater place, because of the action of the body in providing for a tribute to the memory of men who spoke for the race at a time when it was helpless. "Blest Be the Tie That Binds Our Hearts in Christian Love" was used to open this important session, led by the Rev. Dr. W. H. Mixon, was made by Rev. J. C. Deserney. Grand Master Morris declared the convention opened for business and the journal was read by W Randolph Smith, Grand Secretary for the session. With the adoption of the minutes, followed the announcement of committees. A representative, Thomas J. Monroe, from Ohio, called attention to the importance of the place of meeting—historic Boston—and while he was aware of the fact that the men were not members of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows, yet they were friends of the race—they gave their best thoughts and their best talent to the race then in slavery, and for that reason he thought that the members should pay a tribute to the memory of the friends of human rights atnd liberty by placing a flower on the graves of Wendell Phillips and Charles Sumner. "Let the world know that we are not ingrates," continued Mr. Monroe, of Ohio. "This is our time to act." "While it is out of order," said Grand Master Morris, "I will entertain a motion." And Mr. Monroe made the motion. This brought to the floor at least fifty men who were anxious to second the motion. Rev. W. H. Mixon, D. D., of Alabama, said: "We shall never forget these great men, and as we hold this session in the historic city of our nation, let us not forget our own Crispus Attucks of blessed memory. The man whose blood was the first to flow for our country's independence, and whose name will ever figure in the history of the United States. I am proud of the opportunity to second the motion." "We appreciate the work of our friends," said Henry Lincoln Johnson, Deputy Grand Master, "and I am glad that we are going to take advantage of this opportunity. Let us not forget Robert G. Shaw and Ben Butler. They were also our friends." Their names were then included in the motion made, and continuing, Mr. Johnson said: "Let us make this a grand occasion. Not only appoint a committee consisting of one from each state, as provided in the motion, but let us also include the Grand Master, the Grand Officers, and the Owcers of the Household of Ruth. Let us make it an occasion. Let us show our gratitude." Then followed the announcement of time and place of meeting of the various committees. Grand Master Morris said that he was Commander-in-Chief of the Uniform Rank of the Order, and as such it was his duty to be ready to move in the parade. "It will soon be ready to start," he said, "and shall we return here after the parade and do some business?" "No, no," was the answer from all parts of the house. "We will then stand adjourned until 10 o'clock Friday morning," he said, and Rev. W. H. Mixon made a short prayer. Hon. E. H. Morris, of Chicago, the Grand Master of America, is one of the most successful and most noted lawyers in the country, saying nothing about race or colbr. He enjoys a lucrative practice, and among his clients are some of the wealthiest people of Chicago of both races. He is kept busy. He has been the leading spirit in public affairs around Chicago for years, and has contributed much to the success of the Odd Fellows. There is a demand made that he fill the position of Grand Master for another term. It looks that he is going to be forced to accept. In that event there will be a few changes in the slates. When Grand Master Morris called the fifth day's session of the B. M. C., Friday morning, all the delegates were presne and took part in the opening, which was conducted by Rev. Wm. D. Johnson of Georgia. The journal was read, and then followed the visit of the Grand Household by a committee of forty-five women. Miss Annie J. Bowman, of Louisville, Ky., introduced Mrs. M. E. Washington, chairman of the committee. She said, in part: "It is our pleasure and privilege to greet you on this occasion of your B. M. C. assembly and bring you greetings of that large body of women who compose the Supreme Grand Household of Ruth. I crave your patience and interest while I endeavor to present you this message which is yours to spread more widely. "The past biennial term has been one of more than ordinary growth and activity. In the name of Ruth we bring heartiest wishes, our tenderest memories, and a spirit which seeks to co-operate with your own in the welfare of this great fraternity, the G. M. O. of O. F." "To say the Ruth flourishes like the green bay tree but mildly expresses it. With this comes the joy, we are broadening our field, widening in gour horizon, sowing our seed in new pastures, reaping new harvests in far-away places, climbing onward and upward, rejoicing in the vast army following our banner. "We believe in the Fatherhood of God, the brotherhood of man and the sisterhood of women. We teach our Ruths that to reach perfection is womanhood. We must purify ourselves in thought, word and deed." The address was responded to by Continued on page 3 BIGGERS' BUSINESS COLLEGE And Twentieth Century Correspondence School.

SAN DIEGO NEWS THE FOURTH DISTRICT Of all the candidates running for office in this county, Robert Houghton, candidate for supervisor of the fourth district should, by all means, be elected over his opponent at the general election, for various reasons. He is competent in many ways. He has been engaged in construction work all his life, having constructed roads, bridges, sewers, culverts and buildings of all kinds. The last building being the nurses' dormitory at the County Hospital. When a change is made in a large private interest in this country, what do they do They look around for a practical man who is able to manage that industry in the most economical way, not to cut off the men and reduce the business, but to be able to do the more work with the same capital invested. We, as citizens and taxpayers, should use just as much care in selecting a good man as the large corporation. Our country needs just such a man as Robert Houghton, for we are making many improvements and will continue. Let's have a good practical man on the board. Mr. Houghton is one of the best "boosters" San Diego county has had for years. He has been instrumental in having a good many people locate in San Diego. To my knowledge he has brought 27 different parties to this city. He has made this city his home after spending twenty-five years of his life in the city of Omaha, being one of her best citizens. The sumptious banquet given him and his wife on their departure for their new home was one of the best bributes ever given to any citizen leaving there. The writer wishes to say that after Mr. Houghton is elected su- THE NEW YORK TIMES RALPH. L. CONKLIN We are running on our front page this week a clipping from the Topeka Plaindealer showing Governor Hodge's, of that state, attitude on the question of human rights. Now Hodges is a democrat, but it seems since he has been governor for the past two years, that he has seen to it that the colored people of the state received a square deal, especially in so far as he as governor of the state could help them. They were appointed to positions in the various state institutions and in every way they were recognized. He, it seems, was a regular Abraham Lincoln Democrat who stood like a stone wall for a square deal for all men. His answer therefore to some of the crackers who wrote is interesting reading. So in Kansas we believe, that unless the provocation is great on the G. O. P. side the Negro voters would be more than justified in standing by a man like Hodges. Or will history repeat itself as in the case of Gov. Jno. W. Leedy, who was the Spanish American war governor of that state who appointed Negroes to every conceivable office, gave them a regiment officered by colored men, ano for all this Boland Townsend, Prof. Vernon and their Hookey Jim argument lined up the black phalanx against their political friend and benefactor and the Negro swung back in the old rut. Mr. W. M. Jackaman of the Soldiers' Home, Sawtelle, is the house guest of Mr. Geo Gamble, this week. We would like it understood that the Eagle is not dependent on campaigns to run. We have a faithful clientage who are with us at all times, and matters we carry in political campaigns are only incidental. pervisor he will be the same "Bob" as he was before election and can be approached by the humblest citizen. He is a Republican and the greatest desire of the undersigned is that every voted in the fourth district will see that Houghton's majority at the general election will be so large as to insure his election. HON. GRANT CONARD Grant Conard, Republican nominee for assemblyman, 79th (San Diego) district, was born on a farm in La Salle county, Illinois, in 1867. Educated in common schools and business college and Kent College of Law, Chicago. Taught in public schools three years and in business college two years, and practiced law five years at Ottawa, Ill. Located in San Diego in 1902, purchasing a home upon his arrival, and soon became identified with the city's interests. Served as director of Chamber of Commerce five years, was vice-president of that body in 1908. Represented state at Lakes-to-the-Gulf Deep Water Convention at Chicago and National Conservation Congress in Washington in 1908. Also delegate to River and Harbors Congress in 1908. Was president of Board of Public Works, San Diego, in 1905. Elected mayor of San Diego in 1909. Represented the city at League of American Municipalities Convention in 1909, where he delivered an address on "Commission Government for Cities," which was widely circulated. While mayor advocated municipal control of San Diego harbor, with assistance of city attorney drafted bill ceding tidelands to city, took the bill to Sacramento and after a month's work there secur- ed its passage by the legislature. Also assisted in securing appropriation of $250,000 for California State building at our exposition. Was also chairman of Spalding Campaign Committee at Sacramento. Mr. Conard is now a director and member of executive committee of San Diego Securities Company, San Diego institution engaged in development work and the building of homes in San Diego. Became a candidate for the assembly upon the solicitation of numerous citizens who say that San Diego should send to the assembly a representative citizen, one who is familiar with the needs of the city and qualified to discuss intelligently the great questions which will come before the next legislature. Mr. Conard resides at Twenty-fourth and C streets, has a wife and four children. He says it will be a pleasure for him to again serve the people of San Diego, if they so desire. In politics he has always registered as a Republican. "My platform," says Mr. Conard, "is service to my city and state." (Note.—Mr. Conard has been indorsed by the California Eagle and we appeal to our people to vote solid for him.) LOWER TAX RATES At the meeting of the County Board of Supervisors, Monday, September 21, Tom Fisher, supervisor of the fourth district, stood out strongly for a $2 tax rate in the county and made a motion to the effect that the contingent fund be cut about $65,000 in order that the county tax rate, including school rate, might be reduced to $2 instead of $2.10 as planned by the board, or $2.25 as at first planned. This motion fell to the ground for want of support. The matter was the subject of hot and bitter debate on the part of some of the majority, but after a recess the majority apparently saw the wisdom of acquiescing in Fisher's plan and the reduction to $2, as proposed by him, was agreed to. Two years ago the rate in San Diego was $2 also; but since that time County Assessor Moulton has increased the valuation more than $1,600,000. This increase in valuation will meet the reduction in tax rate. Credit is due to Fisher for his unfaltering stand against the proposed increase in taxation, which saves the taxpayers about $175,000. The official financial report for the year, ending June 30, 1913, shows that Fisher's supervisoral district, which contains within its bounds the main highways of travel into and out of San Diego had yet the smallest expenditure. His district, No. 4, shows a total expenditure of $5687.24. On the other hand, district No. 1, Supervisor Smith, had an expenditure of $12,287.04; district No. 2, Supervisor Swallow, $12,704.99; district No. 3, Supervisor Foster, $15,688.75; district No. 5, Supervisor Westfall, $24,332.73. In every case the expenditure in the other districts is more than double that in Fisher's, and in one case three times and in another four times as much. This is all the more remarkable, as the greater part of those other districts are traversed merely by country roads and out-of-the-way lines of travel and traffic. ARTHUR L. DORN Nominee for Justice of the Peace The duties of justice of the peace in a large and rapidly growing city like San Diego, requires a man of sound judgment and broad mind to administer justice in the diversified cases that come before that court. Among the candidates for that office at the November election are none who stand a better chance of reaching their goal than Arthur L. Dorn. Mr. Dorn was educated at the University of California; has practiced law successfully and established an excellent reputation, both with the members of the legal profession and the public at large, during his twelve years on the Pacific coast. Mr. Dorn has appeared in a great number of cases in the courts of this state, and here in San Diego he has been before the courts almost daily, where he has not only become well and favorably known to a large and growing list of clients, but in social and business circles as well. In a recent interview, Mr. Dorn said: "I am as independent as any man can be, and I am going to continue the same. Nobody persuaded me to run for office. I am doing so of my own free will and accord. I am under obligations to no one, and the only promises I make are to the community at large. If elected justice of the peace, I will give my entire time to the duties pertaining to the o face. Every person coming before me shall receive justice and equity in so far as it is possible for me to understand same, and unless good and legal cause be satisfactorily shown, no person shall, by me, be deprived of his liberty for a single day. I believe that every person should be paid for services performed; therefore, he who would cheat a laborer of his hire had better stay away from my court. I believe that kindness, human understanding and brotherly love have their places even in a justice's court." If elected to the office of justice of the peace, Mr. Dorn will no doubt add new laurels to a name that already stands high among the legal fraternity. He is always found on the right side of all important questions affecting the best interests of San Diego city and county, and has a host of friends and supporters who are earnestly working for his success at the polls. HE'S FAIR TO ALL MEN Governor Hodges Replies to His Critics on the Race Question Moline, Kansas, 7-14-14. Gov. Geo. H. Hodges, Topeka, Kansas. My Dear George: I beg to advise that there is quite a number of Traveling Salesmen who are against you this year on account of some stand they allege you have taken in regard to the colored men and women in Kansas as to a Jim Crow law or something of that kind. A vote of sixteen on the train some time ago, I understand, revealed the fact that nine Democrats and three Republicans out of sixteen were against you. J. H. EDWARDS. Sedan, Kansas, P. O. Mr. J. H. Edwards. Sedan, Kansas. My Dear Sir: I have your letter of the 14th, in which you say there are a number of traveling men who will vote and use their influence against me because of the stand that I have taken relative to the colored men and women of this state. I am sorry indeed that the traveling men, who are of a class of the keenest, most intelligent and most active of any organization in the state, should have a feeling against this administration for the reasons I was a traveling man in this state for a number of years, representing a lumber manufacturing concern. I do not care to discuss the matter, but I doubt very much that the traveling men are as unfair as you have suggested. They are too big, too braud-gauged and too much of gentlemen to entertain the narrow, distorted race prejudice that your letter suggests that they entertain. Nine-tenths of the men and women of this state, irrespective of politics, were indignant at the attitude of a few narrow partisans who live in Kiowa, Kansas, and who petitioned and insisted that I should compel a poor colored woman, whom we paroled to one of the best business men in Kiowa, to leave Kiowa and go to some other place to make her living. This poor, defenseless colored woman, who had made a single misstep, was entitled to as much courtesy as any other man or woman in the state who had made a similar misstep, even though their color is white. She was entitled to the same help, and, frankly, we used the same effort to get her a good position, good, wholesome, Christian surroundings, and with a good family who would help her over the rough places that all paroled people have to travel, and help her to retain a respectable place in the world again. I am glad of the part of this pitiful drama in human life that was accorded to me. In my message to the legislature, I stated there was no necessity for a Jim Crow law in Kansas, and there is no necessity for a Jim Crow law in Kansas, and you may say to the few men who are objecting to my attitude on the Jim Crow law, that there will be no Jim Crow law in Kansas so long as I am Executive of this state. I feel that your letter to me is inspired by the best of motives, but I do not want a man or a woman in Kansas to vote for me under the misapprehension as to my position on the race question, or any other question of moment that must be settled by the voters of this state. Sincerely yours, GEO. H. HODGES, Governor. . (From the Topeka Plaindealer.) WILL THE NEGRO STAND THE TEST? A few years ago while he was yet governor of New Jersey, in an address before a mixed audience where Booker Washington was present, Woodrow Wilson said that the only solution to the Negro problem, if there was such a thing as a problem, was his ability to compete economically with the white workman of this country. In the South the Negro still holds the fort as workman, in all avenues of common labor, but in the North and East there are but few vocations open to the Negro, and the few that he has filled in the past are being taken away from him and filled by others. Whether this change is due to a growing prejudice on the part of the white man or it is because the Negro has not made good, we are not prepared to say. But since we are making our home in California, and publishing a Negro journal for the edification and enlightenment of our people along certain lines, and since we have recently covered the state, we feel it our duty to make some suggestions at this time concerning the rapid changes that are being made in California that will affect the interests of the race. Few of us realize that the population is growing by leaps and bounds. Within the past week there have been many thousands added to the state's population, and among them came the Negro. We are aware of the fact that most of our people who come to California from other sections represent the poorer and most depressed classes. Of course climatic and other conditions are especially conducive to Negro emigration, and so it is—he comes with no warm smile, other than the rays of the tropic sun, to greet him. For as a race just a little way up the hill is sufficient to make us look down with a degree of scorn on the fellow at the bottom. We have not yet learned that we must fight it out together if we would succeed; demand and gain the respect of the white. We have been far, far too long a time the target at which all other races have hurled their prejudices. Almost daily we get communications from members of the race complaining of some injustice dealt out to him by the other man and asking the press to suggest a remedy. Now the only remedy that the press, the pulpit or any other agency may suggest for this condition is, get together in all walks, support Negro enterprises, pull up and not down; don't decry the efforts that are being made by individuals or corporations connected with the race. TAKING A STAND The Free Lance, published by W. J. McLamare, is entitled to great credit. It has the courage of its convictions and takes a stand on the liquor question and presents its side of the question. We see other lightning by sheets that have no sentiment, take no stand, and you can not tell where they are at, so therefore the Free Lance seems to be in line to cut ice in the pending campaign. JUSTICE KEATING SHOWS JUDICIAL QUALITIES IN COMPOSING DIFFICULTIES Vito Callello, Italian laborer, stood woebegone before Justice of the Peace J. Edward Keating. A sentence of $100 had just been imposed upon him for assaulting his mother-in-law, Rosa Affatato, and matters were looking blank and black for Vito. "But there are six good and sufficient reasons why the court will not enforce the collection of the fine or put the defendant in jail," Judge Keating concluded, at which there was a murmur of applause in the well filled court room—for the six "good and sufficient reasons" were Vito's children, whose age ranged from eight years to a babe in arms and who gathered with their mother on a front bench. Hope gave place rapidly to the despair in Vito's face and he pledged himself with eager vein-law for six months at least. Hastily he assembled his progeny and vanished from the court room, protesting volubly his gratitude for the mercy shown by Judge Keating, whose sentence in such cases are invariably tempered with mercy and dictated by impartiality and common sense. "And what is to become of me timidly queried old Rosa, who been left behind. "I have no home, nor have I money, I shall I go?"

Peace! Prosperity! Union! THE STRUGGLE The times are hard. Big industries as well as small ones are crying. If these concerns feel the pressure, the newspaper, and especially the Negro journals, feel it more keenly. Some of our good friends who are running for office have expressed their financial inability to aid us in our efforts. We are eager to do whatever we can to aid the person we believe best fitted for certain responsible positions, but in our struggle to publish a newspaper the year around for the uplift of our people we are forced to ask our friends to aid us in a small way in order that we may aid them. --- D.

AFRICAN BATTALION CHECKS GERMANS' FIERCE ATTACK Kaiser's Imperial Guards Are Halted by Heroic Work of Black Warriors Paris, Otc. 3.—An African battalion checked the attacks of the German Imperial Guard in the recent fighting near Verdun. This is the inference drawn from details received here of the combat in that section ```markdown ``` A survivor of the battle who has arrived in Paris told the following story of the fight: "The sun was just rising when our outposts came back on our main force and informed us that the Imperial Guard was coming. Soon after we could see pointed helmets, glistening in the run, rapidly advancing. "Deceived by our silence, the guard came on even to the barbed defenses and commenced cutting them before our trumpet sounded an order for volley firing. The first line of the enemy seemed just to melt away under our fire. The second line appeared to be shaken for an instant, but on they came. "We could plainly see the officers in the lead, waving their swords and encouraging their men to the assault. Another volley and the second line thinned out; but a third line came on and the mass crossed the line of wire defenses. "When 'Charge' was sounded we rushed forward to meet them. Then our boys commenced to fall, but our impetus was too much for the aristocratic guard, which was mowed down and dispersed. "Of one regiment only a single company remained. It was led by a tall lieutenant with a boy's face. He wore a monocle in his eye and carried a revolver in his hand. This company stood to the last man and that last man was the lieutenant. He refused to surrender and stood his ground alone until the bayonets of the Zouaves brought him down." PRIEST Rt. Rev. Bishop J. S. Caldwell, D. D., of Philadelphia, Pa., Presiding Bishop of the Sixth Episcopal District of the A. M. E. Zion connection, is in the city the guest of Rev. and Mrs. W. J. J. Byers.

The manufacturers are now at work, and promise to have the machinery and the equipments, with all the essentials thereto belonging for the installing of a plant complete, ready f. o. b. within six weeks from the time of letting of contract. All stockholders having entered into contract for the stock of this company are requested to close said contracts as early as convenience will permit. The board of directors is now seriously considering the advisability of advancing the stock of the corporation, but undecided yet, whether the stock shall be $2 or $3 a share. The stock of the company is selling at present at $1 a share, but no guarantee that the price will continue long at that figure, except so stipulated in contract. If you care to take advantage of the opportunity that offers the biggest profit making investment ever made in all your experience, then it will be well that you do not hesitate, but act at once. After the machinery arrives on the property of the company, it is supposed that within three weeks thereafter, the installation will be complete and the plant ready for operation. The plan of the board of directors is to install a plant twenty ton daily capacity, and after a few shipments have been made of the concentrates, or values to the smelter, the company will be provided with sufficient funds as a result of the shipments to increase the capacity daily from sixty to a hundred tons. This would mean an output in values from $200 to $2000 in milling the low grades of ore—to say nothing of the higher grades. You should see our regular authorized agent in your vicinity at once, and in case there is no such agent—then remit direct to the company by registered letter, postoffice money order, express order, or by check The company will not be responsible for your remittance, except sent in the manner named EL DORADO GOLD STAR MINING COMPANY N.

OUT IN LOVE MATCH Thursday at noon, at U. S. C., a nice little love battle took place. The participants were Miss Harris of Pasadena, Mr. Bert McDonald of this city, and Mr. Johnson, the young football player recently from Springfield, Mass. Mr. McDonald had finished his noonday lunch and was wandering around the grounds when he spied Miss Harris, also wandering listlessly around. "Now is my chance," thought Bert, "to make a hit." Mr. Johnson was standing in the hall talking with us boys when Bert came up, looking very downhearted. Grabing Mr. Johnson by the arm, he informed him that he was wanted outside. We would not have suspected anything if they hadn't rushed off so suddenly, and so we looked out of the window; and behold, what did we see? There was Miss Harris wating expectantly for Mr. Johnson. To be polite, Bert consented, and so he rushed up to her, bowing and scraping, but alas, before poor Bert even got the chance to speak, Miss Harris said, "Oh, Mr. McDonald, you are just the one I want to see. Please go and find Mr. Johnson for me." When Bert saw that look on her face he knew that he didn't have a chance, and so he quietly came back to where we were. Mr. Johnson and Miss Harris, in the meantime, disappeared around the corner. Of course we don't know anything about this little courtship, but it seems very sudden to us. The Allen Allensworth Literary and Industrial Club met Wednesday afternoon at the residence of Mrs. Hulbert of East Twelfth street in a most delightful session. The club added a number of new members to its roll, and the more than twenty women present were highly entertained and filled with hope for the future of the club.

Hilarity and Acrimony Reigns at Ball Game Before one of the largest crowds that ever attended a ball game, Arthur Arbow's Bumble Bees defeated Getchie White's Getchie Eachies. Spectacular playing by Arbow and Hunter were easy the features of the game. It was a toss up until the eighth inning as to who would win. The teams were even until the fatal eighth inning, when the Bumble Bees scored four runs and put the game on tie. "Skin" Banks in behalf of the Mosquitos challenged the Bumble Bees and will play the team next Sunday.

POLITICAL PICK-UPS Hon. Robert Houghton, Republican nominee for supervisor fourth district, when interviewed by one of our staff, was found to be a big, broad-minded man who is always ready to help our race. Mr. Houghton by trade is a brick mason, at the present time engaged in contracting business, where he employs quite a few race people. Some of the leading colored business men of the city have this to say: Mr. Houghton should receive your vote; he is the kind of man you can rely upon. So with this statement what further indorsement does he need? Mr. T. J. Fisher is the people's favorite in the sheriff race, and those who are interested in the success of the Republicans will cast their vote for the Man of the Hour. Marius S. Sorensen, candidate for constable, is qualified in every way for the office he aspires, and his friends are working night and day for his election. Mr. A. L. Dorn's friends are positive of his success in the coming election. Mr. Dorn has been very busy of late canvassing the back country and has met with favorable results. L. D. Welch, candidate for state senator, is convalescing after quite a spell of sickness. Edwin Reed will receive the report of all classes and "The Eagle" and its friends are with Mr. Reed to the end. Mr. Geo. Butler has no chance of defeat. He has given us efficiency. What more can we expect? Hon. C. N. Andrews, the judge or all the people. Dr. Otto Marsh, our next corner, has the smile that won't come off. Mr. A. L. Dorn has the confidence, and that is half of the battle. The Afro-American Council will hold a big rally next Tuesday ening. All are welcome. Mr. Ralph Conklin, candidate r sheriff, has a record to be oud of. If experience counts for ything note his service. Mr. Grant Conard, Republican minine for member of assembly, could receive the support of all sses. Mr. Joseph S.

USTICE KEATING ANNOUNCES PLATFORM On Which He Will Seek Support of Voters J. Edward Keating, who has presided in department two of the justice court of San Diego town- ship since his appointment eleven months ago, was again nominated at the primary election in August. The phrase, "substantial justice to all," which has been his motto on the bench and which has been at the foundation of all his judicial decisions, will be transformed now into his campaign slogan. Keating announces that he will make his campaign solely upon his record in office. When given his appointment in August of last year as justice of the new, court-at that time, Keating made up his mind that the elements which would best give satisfaction to the county and to litigants would be "substantial justice" and dispatch. He has been governed by the law, but recognizing the fact that the purpose of the law is to administer justice, he has refused to allow technicalities of obscure the issues in case he has tried, or to permit the hewing of legal paths to unjust or inequitable decisions. Realizing also that litigation, especially such litigation as is brought before a justice court, should be handled with dispatch and judgment rendered without unnecessary delay, he has succeeded in keeping abreast of his business, and has made it possible to try and dispose of a civil action within seven days, often within three days after the attorneys get ready to go to trial. This business-like method has astonished attorneys who have waited six months or a year to get their cases before the superior court. Since his appointment Keating has made a record of 418 cases tried, or an average of two trials disposed of every working day. Out of these 418 cases but seventeen appeals have been taken from his judgment, and of these seventeen the superior court has reversed but one of those that have already been tried. This is a part of the "record in office" upon which Keating will make his campaign for election as justice of the peace. This is what Keating calls "substantial justice." Not long ago a negro was brought before him for 1910 stealing a dog. He was found guilty and given a ten-day sentence, but the sentence was suspended on condition that he find and return the dog. The canine had meanwhile wandered to Tia Juana and the negro spent a busy ten days trailing it over the country. At the eleventh hour he appeared breathlessly in the court room; the dog clutched in his arms and was thereupon given his liberty. This also is what Keating terms "substantial justice." During the eleven months of his tenure of office, 542 civil cases have been filed in his court. Of this number 164 have actually gone to trial, the rest having been disposed of out of court or settled amicably in court with the assistance of the judge and without the expense of a trial. During the same time 390 criminal cases have been brought before him, and 254 have been tried The account books of the court also tend to prove that the doctrine of "substantial justice" is not a business mistake for during the ten months in which the court has been open, up to June 1, 1914, they show receipts totaling $3902.72, which has gone into the coffers of the county. This is the platform upon which Judge Keating intends making his campaign for election as justice of the peace. SAN DIEGO LOCALS The second installment of "The Negro and the Panama Canal," written by Geo. A. Ramsy, will appear in this paper next week.

Our San Diego correspondent appeals to all voters in the city and county to vote solid for Hon. C. N. Andrews, the qualified candidate. A Vote for Edwin Reed For Public Administrator Means a Vote for Competency, Efficiency and Integrity. EDWIN REED Remember the name Voters of San Diego county: If you were to employ a manager for your business you would first inquire as to the qualifications, ability and integrity of the applicant. You voters are about to elect a Public Administrator and I am seeking the position. By training add profession I am a book-keeper and stenographer, and have had years of experience in general office work and management. During the past three years I have been book- keeper and stenographer for Albert Schoonover, now United States District Alterney, and by actual experience, have become familiar with every detail of the duties required of the public administrator, from filing the petition to final discharge. I have also taken a two-years' course in the San Diego Law School. Regarding my integrity I am pleased to refer you to any of those who have known me for years, among whom are some of the leading men, both business and professional of this city. I will appreciate your support and thank you most cordially. WITH KNEE WINED M. Dr. Chas.

V. MAHONEY Among the candidates who are most popular just at the present time may be mentioned D. V.

Mr. Mohaney is a man who has a wide acquaintance and his winning manner is enlarging his circle of friends very rapidly. best interests of San Diego county at heart. If the opinion of large number is to be taken in consideration, he is the logic candidate for the office at the time. Mr. Mahoney is making a clean campaign for the office to which he aspires, and the Eagle has every reason to believe that he will be successful. He has the support of a large number of the best people in the county. The reason for this is that he has always been fair in his dealings, has treated his clients courteously and has put forth every effort to properly represent his clients. In making the race for the office of district attorney, which is one of the most important offices in San Diego county, Mr. Mahoney announces himself for clean government. The district attorney can not make the laws. It is his duty to enforce them. It is not his duty to subvert them. He car only see that the laws are obeyed, and after all this is a most important duty. If the laws are enforced, clean government is the result.

SFR r otc Re eens AWN, Ee a SEN SBE PTO E Every race bat ite own charac. teristics and peculiarties, They are mental as well as physical. The most casual observer readily reveals to us that races differ in complexion, texture of hair, in size and sect. One race white, one race brown, one yellow and one dark. The hair of some ‘ie soft straight and flowing; another, stiff and coaree, and another short and crisp. If you observe more closely and come into closer contact, we note they differ in habite, manners and custome, and modes of think. ing. Why ie thie, and for what purpose? The answer must—be because God, the Almighty Crea- tor, made and ordained them so, and hence for the best. They serve His great purpoee. Holy Writ tells that He created each after his kind. It is plain, then, that this is universal law stamped upon tne very face of our being and ié de- signed by the Creator for the ac- complishment of a great end. Since this is true, each race can contrib- ute most to the world by develop- ing ite peculiar characteristics to their fullest extent. In doing thie they are serving the porpose of their creation, and contribute the greate t possible good to civilize- tion. A race should study its own pe- culiar qualities and instincts and set about with the utmost cage to cultivate them and bring them up to their highest possible efficiency. In doing thie it has not only its iors aid, hut the aid of its Maker, who created and ordained it thus, [2° do otherwise ie disastrous and deleterious and must inevitably |end in degeneracy and degrada- tion. Many Negroes have tried to ig- nore and eliminate their own, racial qualities, both mental and physi. cal, and ape the white man. Some tried to get away from their own race and get in the other. Some used all kinds of cosmetics to whiten the ekin, and all kinde of “etraighteners” to straighien the hair. We bave in mind a so.called race leader, who is the most strik- ing illustration of the point at igsue ; be makes it a point to’ rise early in the morning to give him- self ample time to go through thi unnatural and foolish process. All kinds of cold creams, face powders and hair oils are used, morning noon and night, to bring about the desired end. And we have noted as a result, he is less brillieot less healthy and less independent in thought and action, He has become a veritable imitator.. It is second nature|with him. now jhe ‘would ~ a stop it stbaal bt es ede Pe be ee ach a BT ee a ee - We have in mind numbers ; our women, who are even more guilty of doing these very things mentioned, Do not these . things show they are trying to get away from the race, and get into the other? Why not be’ content with what God bas given them? Why can they not see that: the best within theuy is neglected? The are not only guilty of the things just mentioned, but they try to walk and talk like them We are sometimes struck when we see some of our folks wh» have been around the whites in their homes, come out trying to talk just as they talk, inetgad of talk- ing in their own natur@ way. We do not mean to sed should not imitate the whites in that which is good and uplifting, for that would be beneficial and help- iful ; for all races, to some extent out over alittle thing like that!” Tne habitually stubborn woman fails to see in the «ct of her es- tranged friend an illustration of her own actions on all occasions Beware of the bome where every thing moves silently like a great business bouse under a masterfu! manager in full authority. The seeming calm is the calm of forced autocracy. Where there is a-group of free pereonalities mutually re- epectful, there ie nececearily some differences of opinion. Toere is discussion ; there must be discus- sions and compromises. No reas- onable person wants to rule all the time. There are different pointe of view ; different sikee and dis likes, and the glory of ‘family fife is never fully atteined until each member learns to bear and forbear. She eame respect that you feel to be due to your persopality—that ig, your likes and dislikes, your plane and purposes, your ideals and endeavors, your eacred memo ties and inner aspirations, that same respect will you accord to every other, even to your husband and children. The authority we have over onr own children may be 60 easily abused. Mary a. child has been driven into chronic rebellion by a mothe- too rigid in, exacting obedience to her will in every trifling thing— what she calls “discipline,” while it may be stubborn assertion on her part. Husband and wife should play fair with each other. A benevolent disposition is, never- theless a deputiem. Often ai able, energetic woman — always self: reliant—makes so many decisione about the children and the house- hold that in time she comes to feel that it is right to make important decisions for the family, When domestic opposition develops she stands ready. to defend her 'prerog: ieutes at the cost of a prolonged AMERICA MUST INTERVENE To End- War, says Congressman Metz—Asserts United States must Reckon with Japan next t avew t0°k DuUreau of ihe limes Sept. 22—‘Changed my min {shout ‘Paris in sixty days or de | feat?? “Not at all.

But ‘Paris in sixty days oi defeat’ still stands What Ger many bas dove siready makes hei the eure wiuner in this war.” Congreceman Hermen A. Metz head’ of @ large manufacturing houee, reiterated today the proph eey he made forty-three days age on August 10, and brushed aside all suggestions that the present po. sition of the German army in France might necessitate a revision of his forecast.

The New York Congressman, [whore wide knowledye ot Germany and things German gives him a particularly illuminating view point of affairs in the realm of the Kaiser, not only holds stoutly to his profound belief of German auc- cess, but in a peripatetic interview from his office to the quarters of Count Von Bernstorff at the Ritz Carlton, also ventured today sev- eral predictions, is going to be in when this war is end- ed, and that’s the reasun why she is in a better position than the allies. They never can get to Germany. East Prussia doesn’t count anyway, and as for France—why France is finding out that the law- has got to be destroyed when the other fellow is fighting in your back yard. “‘Paris in sixty days, is, of course, a figure of speech. It isn’t necessary for Germany actually to take Paris in order to win. She wins when she car- Ties the war into the enemy's country and shows, as she has doné, that she can sweep all before her and get to the enemy's capital in less than sixty days. Germany is accomplishing what means vietory in war. She is dostroying tne enemy, she is destroying the enemy’s country; that's what war means, and Germany can continue to do that inde- finitely.” “Then you don't take any stock in the newspaper reports that Germany has had to call out——?"" “That's all buncombe,"” cut in the former New Yors City Controller char- acteristically. “It’s all bunk. Ger- many having to fight with men 60 years old in the line! Why, not more than a third of Germany is fighting. Her mills and factories are still open. I am getting letters from our mills that tell what the situation is. The names signed to them are those of men I know. I know how old thty are. I know where they would be if there was any truth at all in the stories that tied. But events are bound to shape themselves so that we can step in, and they willall be glad to welcome our offer. That is because the allies will find they never can get into Germany ‘and as long as they can’t carry ths war there, what good does it do them to continue it?’ If they can’t beat Ger- many, what else is there for them to do?” ‘The Congressman asserted that there were too many blind people who couldn’t see what is written. In this connection, he said, he would have forecast on August 10 the move made by Japan in the East if the matter hadn’t slipped his mind. ‘THE MOVE MADE BY JAPAN. “‘I could have told you then, as I tejl you now, that Japan is moving tomake true ‘Asia for the Asiatics,? ”? he as- serted. ‘‘We will come next. It won't be for some time, but we will surely have to reckon with Japan in the fu- ture, She wants to do with the United States just as she has done’ with ,Ger- many.” Mr. Metz was ona hurried trip to see Count vonBernstorff, the German HIPPODROME THEA’ "WINS DISCRIMINATIO POINT > % Race Man Thrown Out of ‘ drome’ Theater on Pe 12th and Badly Bruised and Beaten, Fined for Disturbing the Pebce Several race men and women in- terested in the. manhood tights and constitutional guarantees' of the Negro of this state, were pres- ent Tuesday afternoon in: Judge Joseph Chambers’ department of the police court of this cityt when. S. B. Battey, a prominent Negro, on trial charged with. having dis— turbed the peace at the Hippo: drome theater on September {2th, was adjudged guilty and fined $10.00 by Judge Chambers, ~~ Mr. Battey claims that in come pany with two ladies he purchased tickets for the night performance at the Hippodrome theater on September 12th, and while wait ing for admission to the auditor- ium downstairs was toid to go ups stairs. Mr. Battey says that he and his friends refused to do $0, and waited ten minutes for ad- mission to the first floor, and that when he and his friends started to take séats on the first floor the “fun” began. Employes, manag- ers and owners of the Hippo- drome theater were all in attent- ae At the trial all agreed that five or six people, including em- ployes of the theater, a special po- liceman, the officer on the beat and a city detective laid “glad hands” on Mr. Battey, handcuffed, him and placed him’ the city jail, where he was kept two days and nights awaiting bail. Mr. Battey and the two ladies with him were emphatic in their statement that when.Mr. Battey attempted to find a seat down- Stairs he was seized by the coat and violently shoved back, at the same time being told that he could not sit downstairs, but had to go upstairs; that within two or three seconds a crowd of employes sur- rounded Mr, Battey, handcuffed him and conducted him-to the sidewalk in no gentle manner from whence he was delivéred to police officers who formed an es- iort for him to the city jail. Tyler & Macbeth appeared as counsel for Mr. Battey. Colored, men who heard the case fear that | a precedent has been established. under which any theater in Los! Angles might “pick a row” with colored men seeking certain seats and after violently ejecting them from the theater, lodge criminal complaints charging them with “disturbing the peace” and, under precedent of the decision in the Battey case, secure a conviction, Mr. Hossick, ex-detective, now deputy city prosecutor, very vig- orously prosecuted ‘the case against Mr. Battey, and manag- ers, owners and employes of the Hippodrome were present in large numbers consulting and advising with Mr. Hossick in the prosecu~ tion of the case. S Because of the fact that it was not shown that Mr. Battey was guilty of any misconduct’ when the row (if such it can be termed) Started at the entrance to the au- ditorium room proper, the case has been appealed. JUDGE J. W. SHENK SHOWS HE STANDS FOR A SQUARE DEAL FOR ALL The high priced attorneys for F. H. Mauser brought everything they had in law and eloquence to prevent a recount in the Wilson Mauser representative contest im the 74th legislative district om last Tuesday. But Judge Shenk stood like stone wall for common justice and ruled that the rights of no one could be jeopardized by a recount in the case. If Wilson received the most votes he should have the place on the ticket, and that a re count could do no one an injustice. So we are glad.to commend and stand up for a man who stands for a square deal for all as Judge Shenk did in this case. Atop Wilson a a Fesalt shereok iled- to win, he satis! : the right thing.
