The fame of the great Frederick Douglass rests not alone in memory. New juster attaches to the name of Douglass through achievements of the noted violinist, Joseph Douglass, a grandson of the illustrious antislavery agitator.
As the ancestors of present day Americans were stirred by the silver voice of the liberty loving "Frederick," so present day Americans are charmed by the golden bow of "Joseph" and the latter is as noted in the circles of music as was his grandsire in the realm of oratory.
For over a decade Eastern and Southern cities have proclaimed Joseph H. Douglass the leading violinist of his Race and one of the foremost of America. His talent has
COSMOPOLITAN CAFE UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT
The popular Cosmopolitan Cafe, located at 733 East 3rd street, which has been conducted for some time by Hite and Thomas, is now under new management, Mr. Hite having purchased the interest of Sol Thomas and he is now the sole proprietor. Mr. Hite is well known in this community as a live wire and has the confidence of all who know him, and the fact that Mr. Hite has control of the same is a guar-
ntee that this popular cafe will be run on the same high plane and excellence that it has always been. Mr. Hite is also well and favorably known by the travelling pubs, and his fame as an entertainer has gone forth. MUT

made him "Prof" Douglass, orchestra soloist and instructor in Howard University's conservatory at Washington, D. C., and the duties of his position combined with numerous successful tours have always precluded the idea of a trip into the Far West.
Now, however, the Dumas Lyceum Bureau has succeeded in arranging to present Prof. Douglass upon the Pacific Coast and his first recital in the West will be given at Blanchard's Hall of this city, December 2. Other recitals will be given at San Diego, Oakland, Portland and Seattle. Prof. Douglas possesses, to the measure of genius, the skill and love of his grandfather for the violin and owns one of the oldest and most val.
Mr. Hite has engaged Mr. J. Alexander, formerly of Chicago, as manager, who is also well known by the public, and his capability to conduct this high class cafe is well known.
Miss Fay Allen, the popular entertainer, who is one of the very best in the business, and the fact that she is the attraction is a guarantee that the entertainment feature of this famous cafe will be up, to the high water mark.
So under the new regime the popular place will, it seems, continue to grow and thrive like the proverbial green bay tree.
INSULT, CLAIM OF PRESIDENT, AFTER CALL
(From Daily Express)
Washington, Nov. 12—President Wilson, while receiving a delegation of Negroes today, who came to the White House to protest against segregating the races in government departments, objected to the tone adopted by their spokesman, W. M. Trotter of Boston, and told the committee that if it called upon him again it would have to get a new chairman.
The president added that he had not been addressed in such a manner since he entered the White House.
The delegation charged that Secretary McAdoo and Comptroller Williams in the treasury, and Postmaster General Burleson had ILATED

uable violins in the Western Hemisphere. His instrument is valued at several thousands of dollars and is said to possess the rarest of tones. Douglass and his instrument are inseparable and many interesting stories are told of his passionate love for it.
Mr. Douglass is a man of charming personality who is deeply interested in Race matters. He has always become very popular socially in the cities he has visited and the West will not only hear a world famous musician, but will meet a polished gentleman who delights in meeting the people of communities which he visits.
enforced segregation rules in their offices.
President Wilson replied that he had investigated the question and had been assured there had been no discrimination in the comforts and surroundings given to the Negroes.
President Tells of Interest
He added he had been informed by officials that the segregation had been started to avoid friction between the races and not with the object of injuring the Negroes.
The president said he was deeply interested in the Negro race and greatly admired its progress. He declared the thing to be sought by the Negro people was complete independence of white people and that he felt the white race was willing to do everything possible to assist them.
Trotter and other members at once took issue with the president, declaring the Negro people did not seek charity or assistance but that they took the position that the Negroes had equal rights with whites and that those rights would be respected. They denied there had been any friction between the two races before the segregation was begun.
President Wilson listened to what they said and then told the delegation that Trotter was losing control of his temper and that he (the president) would not discuss the matter further with him.
After leaving the president's private office Trotter, Maurice V. Spencer and others of the delegation, declared their talk had been "thoroughly disappointing." They declared they would hold a mass meeting in Washington Sunday to
discuss the question.
discuss the question. Mr. Wilson is understood to have told the delegation the question was not a political one and that he would not take it up on political grounds.
HIGH OFFICIALS OF PULL MAN CO. MEET PORTERS
Compand Holds Monster Meeting at Colored Y. M. C. A., Chicago, Ill.
The large, spacious assembly hall of the colored. Y. M. C. A. was filled to its capacity Monday, August 8th, when hundreds of employees of the various districts throughout the city assembled to hear lectures delivered by prominent officials of the company. Promptly at 10 o'clock Mr. L. S. Hungerford, general superintendent, delivered the opening address, which was somewhat brief. He was followed by Superintendent A. W. Giltzaw of the Southern District, who took for his next, "Service." Mr. Giltzaw's lecture varied little from the lectures which have been given by the various superintendents throughout the country, which by this time most men are familiar. Mr. J. A. Davis, chief service inspector, made a few remarks. On arising he was loudly applauded. Mr. Davis covered the same ground as Mr. Giltzaw. In his closing remarks some very timely advice was given the boys. In part he said: "You boys represent the Pullman company; you come in direct contact with the public; it is up to you to be polite, courteous and obliging. Go about your duties with a smile on your face, for the service in general depends on you. The porters we must have; we cannot do without you and another thing I wish to say is you come daily in contact with the best people in the land; then why is it many of you pick for your associates a lower class? many men frequent dives, saloons and gambling dens; come to the cars with intoxicants on their breath and too fatigued to give the proper service. The proper place for you is at home taking your rest. Many of you are selfish; you never think of the tired wife at home, the old mother or father who would enjoy an evening with you at a picture show. You must learn to save your money, pick your associates, you must consider yourself above common laborers just as other races do.
In the eyes of the Creator one man is just as good as another, but among men we have classes. Would the wealthy or the well-to-do take for his associate the man who toils in the streets? No. Then you boys must make divisions the same way. I know the colored people. I lived in Missouri for twenty years. I know your weakest points as well as the strong ones. During the meeting many stringest rules were modified, such as being permissible to polish shoes in the working room, the wearing of skull caps, etc. Owing to the noon hour the meeting adjourned until Monday. Other officials present were Mr. J. P. Leach, superintendent of Eastern district, and representatives from Mr. C. C. Cox's office also Mr. W. H. White's.
I Can not make it
Without You. You are
the best. Make me a friend.
I am not a friend.
The LA
POST
When Mr. Richmond Dean, the company's genial general manager, addressed the big Tuesday meeting and expressed his pleasure of seeing so many faces he had been familiar with for the past thirty years, and remarked that one man in the service was just as good an another, regardless of his color—white, black or yellow—he was loudly cheered. Although a man of few words, from personal interviews from time to time with Mr. Dean, we are confident he means just what he says.
Then followed Mr. J. A. Davis, who remarked: "You boys represent the company. We cannot operate our cars without you. (Let us hope there is no individual so egotistical in his belief that his dismissal from the service would cause the company bankruptcy.) Your success means our success, and advising the men to save their money, avoid bad company, to be polite and courteous, also proves he takes personal interest in the boys.
Coffee and sandwiches were served to all who cared to participate, compliments of the Pullman company.
On the following Monday Mr. C. C. Cox held sway and another large and appreciative crowd was out to greet him.
Tuesday Mr. J. P. Leach, of the Eastern Division, spoke to a large and appreciative audience. Mr. Leach also spoke along yines to improve the service. So enthused were his listeners at time a pin could have been heard to fall upon the floor. At the close of his address he requested men to make any suggestions which might improve the service. He also requested the men to explain why many were guilty of stepping on the upholstery, wherein as Porter R. C. Tucker offered the excuse that the stepping box and ladders were unsafe, especially in the new cars, which were, so much higher, heavier and harder to handle. The matter was taken under advisement.
Mr. Leach also wished to know how men removed hats and other effects of passengers from hooks overhead. Some men replied by the aid of a cane, umbrella or ventilator stick. At this point the meeting was interrupted by one J. H. Moore, a Monon veteran. He wanted to know what should be done in case you were nearing a suburban station, you had a, passenger to discharge, and none of the said weapons were at hand, then what was to be done?
Mr. Leach asked, "what would you do?"
J. H. was on the job and promptly replied, "I would get the hat." This brought a riot of cheer and laughter, for these words were well spoken.
Porter Slaughter spoke of how men were forced to change their clothing in his district, which many other men have protested from time to time.

Mr. Leach said owing to the station being an old one it could not be helped at this time, although the matter had been taken under advisement. Mr. Leach also complimented an article written by T. A. Crenshaw in the August number of the Review. I. P. Dozier, president of the Colored Railroad Men's Club and general agent for the Review, had a large number of copies on hand which were soon disposed of. DDuring the meeting Mr. R. Dean, L. S. Hungerford and Mr. J. A. Davis paid a short visit. All made short addresses, which were well received. Wednesday Mr. W. H. White spoke, which brought the meeting to a close.
Hundreds of foreign porters who were in the city, from Maine to California, took advantage of the meetings and all claim they were well repaid. With the final of these sessions marked the closing of the greatest and most successful of its kind in the annals of the railroad world. From the Scrap Book, by J. D. Reynolds, Railroad Correspondent of the California Eagle.

The Big Race.
Howard Drew to meet George Parker in this city on January's tournament of roses day. Also it is the emancipation day. Parker is the Stockton runover, and he has set up a record of 21 4-5 for 220 dash, and 40 1-5 for 450, and he also has a record of 9 4-5 for 100 yards. He defeated Drew a few weeks ago at Fresno, tieing the world's record in 21 1-5 seconds. So you see that Drew has to go some to beat him. The race will take take place in the afternoon, and the emancipation will be in the evening of the same day. So you stay in the city and go to the emancipation that night and kill two birds with one stone. When Drew was defeated he had jus returned frm a hard season sn the East.
Rev. N. P. Greggs, pastor of the Eighth and Towne Avenue A. M. E. Church, will deliver the emancipation address in Pasadena on Januarp 8th next. All the Spanish-American war veterans and State Societies are cordially invited.
STOCKTON NOTES
The Dunbar literary society met at the Second Baptist Church November 6th, 1914. After the regular orderof business, a great surprise was given the club, when Mr. T. Mitchell, the sergeant-at-arms, presenteed the Society with a gavel, made out of wood from Pike's Peak. The gavell was Mr. Mitchell's personal property, but with a few chosen words he presented it to the Society and it will ever remain in the possession of the Club, and to show their appreciation for the same the gavel was immediately put to use by the president.
An excellent recitation by Mrs. Josephine Boyden, on "The March of Truth," brought out some very interesting thoughts. Next a paper by Rev. J. A. Duncan, on "Our Famous Colored Women,'
which was ably delivered, showing much ability and thought. He gave a short synopsis of most of our leading colored women, naming some that doubtless many of us have never heard of. His paper will appear elsewhere in this issue of the Eagle. The program was concluded by an instrumenta solo by Miss Helen Hart, which showed her ability as a pianist. On Sunday 26th, an excellent program will ae rendered at the A. M. E. Church, 225 S. Commerce.
OUR FAMOUS COLORED WOMEN
(Composed and read by Rev. J. A. Duncan, Pastor of the Ebenezer A. M. E. Church, of Stockton, Calif.)
The achievements of all races have held in the aggregate much of the deeds of their women. The mothers of every race stand out boldly as the fashioners of their distinguished sons. And without the role of mother the women of every civilization have had their quota of the great deeds of the times to perform. Hence the colored women of the United States have contributed largely toward establishing their people as worthy of receiving treatment as men.
The black man's burden at emancipation was to prove himself a man in the fullest sense of the word. His animal powers had been fully developed, and about which there was no controversy. He had long been his haster's umbrella, by performing labor that his master desired him to do. But this cunning fellow (his master) is order to still his conscience, and maintain his stand had loudly proclaimed that the black man had no mind; and that he was only a higher order of the brute. But when emancipation came as a direct answer to prayer, the Negro then found that his first and greatest task was proving himself able to enjoy or grasp the arts and sciences. In the first half century of freedom we find that the colored mon in every walk of life and in his onward march is accompanied by his colored sister.
There were some rare instances of genius among the slaves, one of which is that of Phyllis Wheatley, who was purchased from the African slave market in Boston, Mass. She was purchased by a white lady, by the name of Wheatley, for a servant. But being of delicate constitution and very early showing signs of a brilliant mind, Mrs. Wheatley did what she could to have it cultivated. Therefore we find this little African girl at twenty years of age a wonder of the high and cultured of the times. After spending some time in England, where she was universally admired as much for her gentle manner as for her art of poetry. Phillis came home to her adopted mother only in time to soothe her last hours and close her eyes when she died
Shortly after this Mr. Wheatley and his daughter both died, leaving Phillis, who had been as tenderly matured as her mistresses own daughter, alone in the world. She soon accepted an offer in marriage to a Mr. John Peters, but her marriage life was brief and unhappy. She died in the thirty-first year of her age, on December 5, 1784. Thus Phillis Wheatley proved to the world early in the cruel slavery days that the African women had that rare gift of genius to paint their imaginations in most splendid rhyme. It is a fact that Phillis Wheatley's poems are being read, admired and treasured as a precious gem of literary achievement to the civilized world.
Another slave woman who has left her personality stamped in the
THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE
warp and woof of the Negroes' who was first named Isabella by her mother. But in after years, feeling the force of her mission, named herself Sojourner Truth. She has been called, the Libyan national life is our Sojourner Truth, Sybil. It is not known where she was born, but she was finally set free by a decree of the State of New York. We find her in the days preceding the civil war making herself felt in abolition meetings. It is said that she had marvelous power with God and man and a gift of natural eloquence seldom equaled. She had no education whatever, but kept her friends very busy reading the Bible and answering her letters.
At one time while attending an abolition meeting a storm came up, and a young Methodist minister arose and interrupted the speaker (Mrs. Parker Pillsbury) by saying that he feared God's judgment was about to fall on him for sitting and hearing such blasphemy; that it made his hair rise and stand on his head in terror. Here Sojourner's voice rose above the storm and she cried, "Child, do not be skeered; you are not gonnor be harmed; for I don't specks God ever hear-en tell ub ve."
Frederick Douglas was speaking in Fannel hall during the darkest days of the Abolitionists, and he was very much discouraged. But he said that he was suddenly interrupted by Sojourner; who, lifting her long fore-finger and pointing directly at him, said, "Fred, is God dead?" That is all she said, but it was enough; for it fired his soul with such renewed interest that he championed the cause without fear until he saw its triumph, which was the cessation of slavery and the advent of freedom.
When her life is reviewed it is often wondered what it would have been if she had received kind treatment, and a thorough education while young. She was instrumental in the emigration of our people to the west and north after emancipation. She finally passed to her reward at Battle Creek, Mich. in the year 1883.
Another character that we could not fail to mention, closely allied to the Abolition days, and the underground railroad, is in the person of Harriet Tubman. She was certainly a wonder of the age; brave as a lion, cunning as a Ceasar, and determined as an Alexander of Macedon. Frances E. Harper was another famous woman, who, in later days, used her charming voice to better the Negroes condition. She is known as an essayist and a lecturer of national fame.
Ida B. Willis-Barnet is another woman who felt in the time of a crisis that she had a mission to perform. And right well did she publish abroad the iniquity of mob law.
As an exponent of the art of elocution we have Miss Hallie Quinn Brown, who has traveled extensively in America and England, having appeared and performed before the late Queen Victoria. She has done much with her art of elocution for her alma mater (Wilberforce University, Wilberforce, Ohio,) to further the education of our young people.
Henrietta Vinton Davis, whose fame is national as an elocutionist and reader of rare ability, is another of our famous colored women. Mrs. Amanda Smith of the Methodist church has preached with telling results, from one end of the country to the other, and also has visited the British Isles. Wherever she has been heard her power and personal magnetism had been keenly felt.
Edmonia Lewis, the little Negro girl who exclaimed while looking at the statue of Franklin in the city of Boston, Mass., "I can make a stone man." She set to work to prove her ability as a sculpture,
and being patronized and encouraged by such noted Englishmen as D. Israli while pursuing her studies in Rome. She has proven her prophesy true, and her name is enrolled on the list of fame, as master of an ancient classical art, sculpturing. The colored women are also famous in song, for there is Madam Selika, who is said to have possessed a sweeter voice, and one of greater compas than did the noted Jenny Lind.
Madam Flora Batson Bergen is another who has charmed, and thrilled thousands with her sweet and mellow voice, being able to sing the most difficult classic composition from memory, not being able to read a note.
All of us no doubt have enjoyed the sweet straits from the throat of Ciseretta Jones, better known as Black Patti. It is not absurd to say that thecivilized world has recognized her rare ability as the foremost singer of the age.
We should be false to our mission of naming the best known of our famous colored women should we fail to mention Ada Overton Walker, the most famous danseuse of the American stage, and ever recognized as such. Those who have given over their lives to social services are being ably led by Mmes. Booker T. Washington, Fannie Church Terrel, and Nannie Burroughs.
Last but not least, we would appeal to the mothers of our race who amid adversity and persecution, have ever admonished and urged their sons and daughters on to better things and higher life in the face of disheartening circumstances; to take renewed courage, and push the battle of race betterment through the very gates that open into the city of fame by accomplishment.

A Japanese Lawn party was given in aid of the Missionary Society of the Westminster Presbyterian church at the home of Mrs. Forsythe, 1590 West 36th place. Friday evening. The house was beautifully decorated for the occasion. The party was a great success and Mrs. Forsythe deserves much credit for the delightful time which the party afforded to all who were present.
The West Side willing workers of the First A. M. E. Church of 8th and Towne ave., met at the home of Mrs. Hart, 1426 West 35th street Wednesday evening. There, were quite a few members present, and much good is being accomplished by the members of the club towards aiding missionary work.
The West Side Dunbar Literary Society held its regular meeting at the Westminster Presbyterian church, Tuesday evening. Owing to the inclement weather the attendance was not very large, but a high class programme was rendered Among the numbers were: A violin sole by Mr. H Patrick; a piano solo by Miss. A. Harrison; a reading by Mrs. A. McDonald. The Society is giving a reception in honor of their champion debaters and outgoing officers next Tuesday evening, and everybody is invited to attend. A debate has also been arranged by the Society for four junior members. Thfs debate will come off in the near future and the subject will be: Resolved, "that the Phillipinos should have their independence." There will be a big programme rendered next week.

Mr. T. A. Thornton of 1595 West 35th place, who has undergone a serious operation, is slowly recovering at the county hospital, and will be delighted to have some of his friends visit him now that he is strong enough to receive them.
Mrs. N. P. Greggs, wife of the Rev. N. P. Greggs of the First A. M. E. Church, has been indisposed for the past few days. The pastor looks like a ship without a sail without a sail without her——. We wish Mrs. Greggs a speedy re-covery.
A number of the young men and young ladies of the First A. M. E. Church met last Tuesday evening to organize a literary society. Mr. P. W Ridgway acted as temporary president. All the plans for the organization have been laid and the election of officers will take place next Monday evening. The society will be known as the Freerick Douglas Literary Society. Great things ought to be accomplished by these young men and women if they pull together.
Mr. Wm. Easton of our city, who is now visiting relatives in Piedmont, Cal., is having the time of his life. If there is such a thing as home sickness, Willie will be home before Christmas.
Mr. E. M. Lewis, of Chicago, Ill., who has been in our city for a few months, is contemplating returning to Chicago to close his business and then return to mak Los Angeles his future home. Mr. Lewis is much impressed with the people and climate of Southern California and is determined to spend a few of his remaining years in ovr midst. Bon voyage Mr. Lewis; boost California all you can while away. Mr. Lewis is a member of the A. M. E. choir.
Mr. J. J. Josephs declares that he has found something which has never been lost but for which he has been searching several years. This young man will have lots to do answering congratulations on his miraculous find.

"Baby Ruth."
"Like the lily bells that blossom On the bowers of Eden fair, All their pretty loaves unfolding To the breeze that murmurs there, Like a jewel bright and sparkling From the peerless brow of truth, Like a birdling with the Autumn, Came your winsome Baby Ruth.
"There are feelings deep and tender,
There are joys you could not know
Till a cherub in your household
Bade the hidden fouain flow.
Now a love its smile reflecting
From the Peaceful eye of truth,
Like a radiant star is shining
O'er your gentle Baby Ruth.
"In a fancied dream I linger,
As the evening time draws nigh,
And I listen to the carol
Of her mamma's lullaby,
While her papa, grave and thoughtful,
As in years of vanished youth,
Lays his hands with fond caressing
On the head of Baby Ruth.
'By a holy consecration
Tha will ne'er forgotten be,
You have answered him who whispered
'Bring your little ones to me.'
You have brought her, pure and lovely,
To the way, the life, the truth,
And his seal is on the forehead
Of your precious Baby Ruth.
"May you train her in the knowledge
And the wisdom of the Lord.
May yon teach her to be faithful,
And obedient to his word.
With the lamp whose beams are kindled
At the throne of sacred truth,
May you guide the coming future
Of your darling Baby Ruth."
IN THE SUPERIOR COURT
John Mitchell, Jr., Banker and Editor, has a Little Misunderstanding.
[From Topeka Plaindealer.]
Down in Richmond, Va., John Mitchell, Jr., is a banker and also owns and edits The Richmond Planet, one of the strongest journals ever conducted in the interest of the negro race. Mr. Mitchell is also a member of the American Pankers' Association, being the only man of his race in the organization. He has always been treated royally by the bankers, but when they met in his home city a few days ago there was a little misunderstanding" as he mildly terms it, and it took the bankers to set his Southern brothers right. The following from Mr. Mitchell's Richmond Planet will show the cussedness of a poor Southern white man or one of the cracker element who accidentally stumbled upon some weal.h. The Planet, under the castion, "A Little Misunderstanding" says:
"President John Mitchell, jr., entered the Jefferson Hotel last Sunday to register as a member of the American Bankers' Associatin. There were six white lady stenographers of this city there with a skilled manager in charge. He passed his engraved plate card to one of them. She seemed somewhat embarrassed and then she said: 'We are not' registering people from the city, only visitors today.' The gentleman in charge picked up the card and hurriedly went to the rear of the enclosure. He returned and said pleasantly that it was all right.

WE ALL HAVE TIME NOW
TO BOOST FOR PROG-
RESS
The elections are now over for
a while at least, and we can now
all line up, for the progress of the
community in which we live and
for the continued progress of the
race.
The election personally to the
colored voters was of small mo-
ment, as they are no way to figure
in any of the emoluments inci-
dent thereto. It is only in a gen-
eral way that they share in the
benefits or the adversities of the
result of the campaign just closed
So therefore we are all now in
line to take advantage of the bet-
ter times which we verily believe
are at hand.
‘And it is along the lines of busi-
ness activity that we are most
concerned in the future progress
of the race in this community
California by natural environment
is the most prosperous spot in the
entire country at the present time
and it is up to those who are here
to share in the great possibilities
of the same, and it is to that end
that we should all boost and work
to: be of help one to the other for
a continued progress.
THE CAMPAIGN JUST
CLOSED
In our last issue we stated that
at the time we went to press we
could not properly comment on
the result of the election, which
result at that time was very in-
definite and uncertain as to some
of the important men and meas-
ures.
That the head of the ticket
which we supported went down to
defeat there was no doubt. The
Eagle never trimmed or hesitated
or sat on the fence. We stood for
a principle and we gained victory
out of defeat.
For U. S. senator Congressmar
Knowland’ was snowed under as
the Republican standard bearer
This paper supported Knowland
because he espoused Republican
principles. We have no apology
for the same. We do, however,
think that the Republicans reaped
what they sowed and that if the
old Republican war horse, S. M
Shortridge had been given the
nomination at the primaries there
would have been a different song
to sing. One of victory instead o!
the’sorrow song.
The amendmente was a free for
all proposition. We valiantly
fought against the eight hour law
and could sing the song of rejoic-
ing and triumph.
FE (SRE! ee ga
with the winner, John C; Cline. i
For ‘district attorney we went
|down with W. J. Ford.
| For judges of the superior court
a good part of our ticket were
easy winners.
For justice of Los Angeles
township -J. W. Summerfield, E.
Judson Brown and Frank S.
Forbes were almost a clean sweep
for us. We are especially pleased
at the response we received for
the support of our people to that
splendid young man, Edward Jud-
son Brown.
For justice of the peace of Los
Angeles city we also scored
among the winners.
Other positions for whom we
made a fight were about a stand
off. 4
Ef Hubbard received about
1400 votes for assemblyman in the
74th. district, a whole lot of the
voters made grand stand plays at
the galleries and were not sincere
in their promise of support, and
the same was uncovered when the
ballots were counted.
In many respects the campaign
was a remarkable one in the fact
that the forces’for and against the
various. candidates and measures
made the same under very adverse
circumstances.
The law that limited the ex-
penses of candidates was such
that a letter to each registered
voter in the county was out of
the question, as the postage would
amount to more than the amount
which they were allowed to spend.
So the campaign was largely made
by volunteers.
Another. feature some of the
forces which claimed such great
followings were shown up for all
time to come, and it was founc
out just what organizations an¢
men could deliver the goods.
The professional campaigne:
and spellbinder was not at a pre
|mium and probably suffered ir
reputation for any results for
their efforts.
One thing apparent to all i:
|that the fact has dawned on ou!
|people that in order to be recog
nized and to accrue any benefit
from future political combats they
|must all join the get together
'| movement and we feel safe in say.
Jing that the great common people
| plucked of all the frills of self-ap
| pointed leadership, will come to
| gether for the things that will b
Jof the greatest benefit to the rac
Jin this community.
H. A. REEVES COMPANY
WILL HOLD “OPEN
HOUSE”
Public Invited Sunday, Novem-
ber 29th
Owing to a widely expressed
desire to inspect the plant of the
H. A. Reeves Company at 1429
Santa Fe avenue, the company will
have its establishment open for
public inspection on Sunday, No-
vember 29, 1914, from 1 till 5 p.
m. Refreshments will be served
free of charge.
On Sunday November 8th, the
H. A. Reeves Company enter-
tained the Forum, a large crowd
being present. This company is
one of the larges Negro corpora-
tions in the west. It handles all
kinds of junk, is incorporated for
$20,000 under the laws of Cali-
fornia, gives employment to from
ten to fifteen people, and does a
monthly business of from one
thousand to two thousand dollars.
The par value of the stock of
this company is $1 per share and
over 4000 shares have been sub-
scribed and paid for at that figur.
The company has placed 3000
shares on the market at par, in
order to create a reserve fund of
about $3,000. The policy of the
company is to issue as little stock
as possible.

Party to Elect Negroes.
The campaign has passed into
history, and the g. 0. p. is once
more in control. The Negro
“spell binder” has visited every
nook and corner of the state, re-
freshing the noble acts and deeds
of Lincoln, and telling his people
thdt unless the Republican party
was placed in control, all was lost.
We guess he is joyful now, though
his only reward is a few party
shekels. What has he accom-
plished for the race and what has
the party whose cause he espoused
done for the Negro?
Out of the hundreds of men
elected to office, not one is col-
orei, yet these leaders rejoice
It remained for the Democratic
and Progressive parties to show
the blacks that they have a place
in the politics of this country,
other than be herded to the polls
and voted and then cast in the
scrap heap until the next.
Out in Graham county, where
the white vote is ten to one, the
Democrats nominated and elected
‘Hon. W. L. Sayers county attor-
ney, and this is his second term.
Mr. Sayers’ majority was even
larger than it was two years ago
|He is one of the ablest attorneys
in the state, and we are pleased tc
note that the party the Negro has
damned for over forty years, has
enough men and women to recog:
|nize brain and ability above color
and who are brave enough tc
come out in the open and so de.

8TH ANNUAL ANNIVERSARY
Of the Y. MC. A. Grand
Banquet.
From a basement to a building, a
commanding institution molded by
the faith and energy of an unassum-
ing man, such was the achievement
celebrated at the eighth anniversary
banquet of the Young Men’s Chris-
tian Association, Tuesday evening,
November 10.
One hundred citizens of the sub-
stantial, labor, business and profes-
sional life of Los Angeles, were
seated at one of the most notable of
banquets. At richly appointed tables,
amid floral decorations and profuse
draping of the flags of nations, with
an orchestra in a bower of green, the
guests enjoyed not only an incom-
parable repast, but heard in re-
sponse to toasts the recital of the
growth of the wonderful work of our
city’s Y. M. C. A. and the esteem
cherished for its moving spirit, Sec-
retary Thomas A. Greene. Nor
were the devotion and helpfulness o!
his charming helpmeet, Mrs. Greene
forgotten either by the speakers or
the secretary,
This banquet celebration of eight
complete years of the Young Men’s
Chefstian Association marked 2
pleasant eminence gained by travel
over a tortuous, burdened pathway o!
difficulties, sacrifices and toil. There
were glimpses backward into the
shadows but the thankful banqueters
counted it allas “Glory” and looked
into the promising future of this
most useful institution of the West
Many an inspiration was gathered
and Secretary Greene may anticipate
the active support of many who have
heretofore merely looked on. All of
this must have been conveyed to him
as the earnest speakers addressed
their honored toastmaster. The ad-
dresses were significant for with all
the wit and its attendant merriment,
there was an unmistakable atmos:
phere of realization of the worth of
the Y. M. C. A. as an institution and
the responsibility of the community
to it.
Many compliments were paid dur
ing the evening to the Secretary anc
wife, to Mr. Theo Troy, largest con.
tributor, to various workers and th
people and to Mr. Stevens, whos
work as a city detective was highl
praised.
‘The Y. M. C. A. and its guests gen
erally felicitated each other in th
passing of a delightful occasion

Attorney Griffith-Jones, speak-
ing for W. J. Ford the other even-
ing, said: “Let them sling the
mud. It is a sign that their logic
is exhausted. As for me, I avoid
the strife of tongues upon all occa-
sions, and make it a point to ap-
peal to, rather than insult, the
intelligence of my hearers.”
Those who know Lawyer Jones
best know that it is not fear that
prompts his remark. He is a mar
to whom a fighit looks good. It
is common sense which causes
him to speak in this manner, and
others would do well to listen tc
the words of this attorney.
Mr. Jones is one of the most
eloquent speakers upon the polit-
ical platform, and is surpassed by
few in the court rooms of Los
Angeles County. He is making
friends for Ford wherever he
goes. And, incidentally, for him-
self.

OUR L EGAL DEPARTMENT
A NEW FEATURE
The California Eagle is always anxious to assist those in trouble. Many people are being defrauded of their rights because of their ig? norance of the law and it is for this reason that the California Eagle has retained a well known Los Angeles attorney to edit a "Legal Advice Column." Any question that a reader may desire to ask will be answered through our Legal Advice Column. No name or address will be disclosed. Each communication will be considered confidential. Have you a legal trouble? If so, state the facts, give your name and address, mail it to the California Eagle, and watch the next issue. Do not fear publicity. No one will know of your communication, except our legal adviser.
A reader desires to know when a grocery bill becomes outlawed so that the grocery company will be stopped from suing theron.
Four years. A grocery bill is what the law deems "an open, mutual, running book account."
A subscriber desires to know whether or not a man forfeits his right to sue in the civil courts to recover some money obtained falsely, if he commences criminal proceedings.
Certainly not. If the money was gotteu from you wrongfully, the district attorney's office will issue a complaint for you. But you can also bring a civil suit for the recovery of same.
WAS A LUCKY MAN
On Thursday of this week before Sudge Willis and a jury,Jack Gleaso was charged with shooting Walter Ross on July 26th, with intent to kill.
Deputy District Attorney Doran and Captain Helms represented the prosecution and Attorney Griffith Jones assisted by F. L. Hamblin represented the defendant. This shooting incident occupied several columns in the daily papers at the time of its occurance. It will be remembered that at her home on 36th and Grand avenue, Mrs. Belle Armstrong, her son of fifteen years and daughter of eleven, with two men by the name of Walter Ross and Jack Gleason, sat up all night drinking and playing cards. The men got into a quarrel at 4 o'c.ock in the morning, over the woman, and Jack Gleason left the house to return a few moments later with a revolver and shot Walter Ross in the chest aud leg. Walter Ross was in danger of his life for a considerable length of time but has now totally recovered. Jack Gleason has been confined since the shooting in the county jail pending his trial and Mrs. Armstrong has been under arrest for contributing to the delinquency of her children. The jury found the prisoner guilty of assault with a deadly weapon. The man was charged with shooting with the intent to kill the penalty for which is fourteen years in the penitentiary. However, the jury found him guilty of of assault with a deadly weapon for which the penalty is not more than two years. The trial created considerable interest and the court room was packed to its utmost capacity during every moment of its progress as defend- anr Gleason was a well known teamster of this city. When arrested Gleason was without funds but his friends did not stand in the way of securing the abliest legal assistance.
MORTGAGE BURNING
at New Hope Baptist Church
The pastor and members of the New Hope Baptist Church had a good old time last Tuesday evening at the mortgage burning. The mortgage was held by Mr. C. Hammond, while little Louisa Smith lit the match.
New Hope, with the old war horse, Rev. Anderson at the helm, is making untold progress.
The plan for a new church edifice is as yet immature, but the members are enthusiastic and funds are being laid away for the same.

Good Game Spoiled by Much Adrimony.
What we would call a good game was the one played between the Bumble Bees and Gechies Eachies, Sunday, at Logan Park. It was a pitchers' battle between King, Southpaw artist of the Bees, and Fields, of the Gechies, both pitching great ball.
The fielding by Walter McDonald was the feature of the game. In the sixth inning with three men on bases, the score tied and two out Home run Burns hit the ball to deep center. As the ball left the bat, McDonald was off with it, and after a great sprint of about 40 yards he caught the ball with one hand, and received deafening applause from the crowd. Had he not caught it we would had to give Mr, Burns a home run.
The only uncalled-for thing that happened is the acrimony, ana unless it is stopped we fear that in the future we will have to seek other grounds.
Much abuso was heaped on the
umpires Sunday, which was very
ungentlemanly, and it decreases the
popularity of the players who
make it a practice. Outside of
these things it was a great game,
ending in a tie score of 8 to 3.
These same teams will play next
Sunday at the same place.
A word to all: respect the ladies
that are present, if you don't your
self.
The standing is as follows:
P. W. L. P.
Bumble Bees..... 6 4 1 850
Gechies Eacheis..... 6 3 2 750
All-Stars..... 2 1 1 500

To the Colored Voters of San Diego.
I am assured that my election as Superior Judge was in a substantial manner contributed to by your votes. I consider this a very great compliment, in as much as I know that, ordinarily, you vote strongly the Republican ticket. I am especially pleased that you realize that with a judge there is no poli- politics and that it is wholly a question of the man. I thank you heartily for your support and hope you will have no reason to regret your action.

LANGFORD WILL MEET McMAHON TUESDAY NIGHT AT VERNON
Sam Langford, who is accredited with being the craftiest, brainiest, and most sensational of colored scrappers, will tackle Tom McMahon Tuesday night in a scheduled 20-round boxing contest, before McCarey's Vernon Arena. Langford is known the fistic world over as the biggest little man in the heavyweight division, barring no one. Sam has met and defeated most of the white hopes, and not forgetting that he has tackled and whipped the greatest of black men.
The Boston Tar Baby is one of the most remarkable fighting machines that ever slipped his hands into a set of five-ounce gloves; he knows every angle of the game, every inch of the squared circle, and holds the highest respect, not only of every fight-going fan, but of every ringman that follows the boxing game.
Sam's career has been a sensational one. Starting as a featherweight, he has gradually outgrown the different classes till he finally was forced to tackle the heavyweights, when he himself never weighed over 182 pounds stripped for action.
Langford is today the Black Ketchel, he is the one man that can draw a capacity house any time that he starts, for he always gives the fans a run for their money, and, besides, he is one of the best behaved ringmen of his race.
Up to date Langford has traveled the world over, and he has appeared before royalty in every land that he has shown in, which is in itself a fair example of what a great master he must be, to be commanded to disport his fistic wates before some of Europe's greatest monarchs.
To Joe Woodman belongs also a great deal of credit for the manner that he has been handled, and the Woodman-Langford combination is a hard one to beat. This has been proven time and again.

SOME OF THE NEW FEATURES OF THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE
The oldest residents of California will do doubt recall the establishment of the Eagle in 1887 and they will also remember that it has ever been the policy of the Eagle to uphold the Colored Race at all times and to do everything in its power for the advancement and uplift of the Race. It is needless to say that at this time the Eagle after 27 years of earnest endeavor is still on the firing line for the advancement of the race in all things and at all times.
It shall be the policy of the Eagle to continue at this time the fight it has consistently made for the best interest of the race as a whole and it will therefore continue in the editorial chair Mr. J. B. Bass who was formerly owner and publisher of the Montana Plaindealer and who is well and favorable known to all the people of this state and community. Mr. Bass will contribute weekly to the editorial page, touching upon the events of the day as pretaining to the best interest of the American Negro as a whole. These editorials are always bright, clean and interesting and you will find it to your interest to subscribe for the Eagle and keep informed as to what is going on in the world as effects the American Negro.
General Management by Miss C. A. Spear
No one is more worthy the consideration of the general public than is Miss Spear, the general manager. First of all she is a christian woman who at all times is looking for the moral uplift of the American Negro and who, since she has assumed the burden of the issuance of this publication has striven to make it a wholesome readable paper, and who is at last is on the verge of success. Miss Spear is arranging for the establishment of news agencies in various parts of the United States. Beginning with the first of the year these agencies will be in full operation, with a special wire service direct to the Eagle office and as consequence readers will have the advantage of this service and it will be found that readers will have a fair return for the money paid, combined with the SPECIAL OFFER WITH THE SUNDAY TRIBUNE.
Another feature to be given the readers of the Eagle is the short story, by professional and amatuer writers of the race. Who knows but there may exist within the confines of our own race another Dnmas, Pushkin or DuBois? It will be the purpose of the Eagle to give those who possess talent for writing a chance to express same within its columns. Beginning next week will be a short story entitled "The Amatuer Manager" by a local writer of some repute. Don't fail to subscribe and read this story of wit and pathos.
