The Weeding Out Process is now on in the Political Arena NEGRO WELFARE LEAUGE OF SAN FRANCISCO WIN NOTABLE VICTORY FOR THE RACE As a result of the efforts of the Negro Welfare League of San Francisco the following orders have been issued by the Chief of Police of that city at the behest of the Board of Moving Picture Censors: Office Chief of Police San Francisco, Calif. March 3rd, 1915. Company Commanders:— The San Francisco Moving Picture Censor Board, having reviewed the picture entitled "The Clansman" has the following to say, suggest and order concerning same: 1. When the old white woman in the Abolitionist meeting sniffs the little Colored boy and shows plainly that his odor disgusts her—this is in very bad taste and is generally unclean and offensive. 2. The scene between the Mulatto housekeeper and Stoneman, where he finds her after she has torn her clothes, is offensive through too much lustful detail. That part of the scene where he strokes her naked shoulders and his feelings are seen to be aroused thereby must be eliminated. 3. The brutality of the Guerrillas in the Cameron house in the scene in which the women take refuge in the cellar is too long drawn out and much overdone. A portion of this scene of wanton violence should be cut. 4. The scene in the legislature showing buffoonery of Negroes taking off shoes, etc., is overdone and overplayed and is therefore essentially offensive to Colored people. 5. Gus' chase of the girl is far too long drawn out and that part where he overtakes her on the cliff and slavers at the mouth like an animal must be eliminated. This is absolutely offensive to the moral sense. 6. In the mob scene towards the end just before the K. K. K's arrive, Negroes are shown grabbing up white women, fondling and kissing them. This part must be cut out. 7. The struggle scenes between Lynch and Miss Stoneman are too frequently flashed and in too much detail. They should be pruned and shortened. Please be advised that we are suggesting changes Nos. 1, 3, 4, 7, as in our judgment necessary to make the picture less offensive on all sides; but that changes 2, 5 and 6 are mandatory as far as this Board is concerned. Other than the items above mentioned we have no objection to the picture, though we do believe a good deal of it to be in somewhat questionable taste. You will see that the provisions of the communication from the Censor Board are complied with. This action was taken after the following resolutions had been passed by the Negro Welfare League, their officers, etc. The Colored citizens of San Francisco, California, in mass meeting assembled, do adopt the following preamble and resolution: That Whereas, This body having received information that a certain dramatized film moving picture, known as the "Clansman," is about to be exhibited in the theatres and play houses of San Francisco, and Whereas, Said picture tends to degrade the Negro race, and wherever exhibited or played has had and does have a tendency to create race hatred as well as to revive race hatred otherwise dormant, thereby rupturing the harmonious relations that existed between the citizens of the community in which the same is exhibited, and Whereas, Believing as we do, that if said picture is exhibited in the theatres and play houses of San Francisco, it will have a tendency and influence upon the citizens and residents of this commonwealth to the great detriment of their well being, and furthermore, we as a race know that the book commonly called "The Clansman" is not a truthful story of conditions that existed in the Southern states after the Civil war, and that the object of the writer was to discredit the Negro morally, intellectually and physically and to represent the Negro as incompetent of ever attaining the height of civilization. Therefore Be It Resolved, That we protest against the public exhibition of said picture or pictures in the theatres and play houses of San Francisco; that this resolution be spread upon the minutes of this organization, and that a copy of the same be sent to the following persons, boards and organizations of San Francisco; BILL ANGELO BACK ON THE JOB. Sacramento, Cal., Mar. 11, 1915. Sacramento, Cal., Mar. 11, 1915. The California legislature reopened its forty-first session on Monday at high noon. In the Senate some Colored forces of attaches at once went to work, Major Twine alone not being in the city, though I understand he is re-elected. It was not until Tuesday the majority of the attaches went to work in the Assembly, the Colored attaches among the number. It is this conclusion of the forty-first session of the California legislature comes the battle royal between the Progressive forces and the reactionary. Shall partisanship in all of the elective offices of the state with the bare exception of the national offices, be eliminated from California politics? I can remember the time when men took their politics more seriously than they took their religion. When a man would solemnly swear he would rather vote for a yellow dog than vote for a Democrat, it was during this period they hanged, shot and burnt Negroes of the South; the outgrowth of political misunderstandings were the main issues of political documents and forensic efforts on the stump. It would appear the Negro is no longer the "main issue." He has been finally disposed of through special legislation. He is regarded now by all political parties as the mere "fly in the pan of milk." The Republicans long since having abandoned the sublime issue of human rights for property rights, it has been left alone to the Socialist party to agitate those questions of human equity upon which depend the perpetuity of popular government. The Progressive sentiment of non-partisanship appeals to all men who would like the direct affairs of the people out of the hands of political machine made ticket manipulators, and through the direct primary, the initiative and referendum, establish the "will of the people." The ringing sentiment of true democracy. There are able men, eloquent men, forceful men in both branches of this legislature who will cling to their party fetish and there will be pyrotechnics Los Angeles, Cal., MARCH 13, 1915 POOR ORIGINAL But then, as I have before said, the progressive spirit as demonstrated by this session of the California legislature is not the sole possession of the Progressive party. This was shown in the Assembly Tuesday when the Anti-Spotters' Bill—A. B., by Walter A. Ryan of Frisco, was passed by a vote of 61 to 16. But three Los Angeles Assemblymen, Fish, Chamberline and Lostutter, voted "no." Assemblyman Lyon of Santa Monica made a masterful speech in behalf of this bill and at once established his reputation as an orator. Assemblyman Mouser, the author of the true and only automobile bill that will save over a million dollars to the tax payers of Los Angeles city and county, is insisting on the bill framed by him taking precedence over another bill in which is very apparent the appropriation of the "Mouser idea." Both branches of the legislature are getting quite manfully at 2,800 measures left over to be finally disposed of in the latter part of this session, and there is no doubt this will be a session of the California legislature highly complimentary to our great state, and Governor Johnson's second administration. Mrs. L. H. N. Coleman is a writer of rare ability. Discriminating and scholarly, she possesses to a high degree the poetic temperament, and has acquired great facility in verse. Her last poem, "Lucille of Montana," ran through several numbers of the magazine "Our Women and Children," and is full of ardor, eloquence and beautiful thought. Mrs. Coleman has contributed special scientific articles to the Review and other journals, which were rich in minute comparisons, philosophic terms and scientific principles. She is a writer for scholars, as well as the people. A book entitled "Bor Ben" is the epitome of one of our prominent Bishops. One hundred thousand of its first edition were sold, and it is pronounced an excellent work. Mrs. Coleman is an accomplished woman along many lines, and after finishing the course at Lawrence University of Wisconsin, devoted her life to literary and musical pursuits, and ranks with the most painstaking writers. Copied from Mrs. Frank Leslie's "New York Journalist." WHAT IS OUR VALUE? I ask the question of all Afro-American citizens of California. What is your value in the world's economy? What does each one of us give to the world over and above what we have cost? What do we consume; what produce? How much would the world miss had we never lived? Come let us show up our cash account, and our balance sheet. Do we belong on the credit or debit side? It is only by this standard that the world finally and inevitably will measure, and judge nations and races. To overhaul our books is the best step toward a correct answer. But remember that the operation is purely mathematical. Figures do not lie; they allow no sentiment clansmanic, no political breeze, nor equivocal and pretentious bombast to make a gaudy, spectacular fallacy, appear as actual value. The old woman's pet hen which she idolized is worth no more when sold than the black hen from the same hatching and quality, that flew into the house, and when assailed by the entire household, and in the eviction broke handsome curios, and buds from the choicest flowers. The one idolized, the other despised, are hens of one flesh, and both bring the very same market value. In some parts of this "land of the free,"—pardon the misnomer!—a black face even if given in homeopathic doses, creates such a cyclone of feeling that men can- not discuss the common affairs of life, if this dark face is concerned in the topic. While on the other hand, in some places of this same free America (?) the word Negro embraces an ideal theory, and a sentiment of Christlike benevolence, and a black man (the blacker the better) is the petted god, the cherished conclusion of the possibilities of our race. This is all the capital, the pushing selfishness, and aspiring mediocrity of some of our race ask for, to be advertised as one of the oppressed, who has reached such acme of fame as to become a doctor, lawyer, banker or lecturer. All praise and honor to such, if they truly rank high and are giving forth to the world the best service in their profession, thus paying their debt to the world for their positions in life. We deplore the fact that some who fill such places are lordly in their own estimation. They are not real values; but only what the melton coat, stiff tile and broadcloth make them—superficial nonentities, spurious coin. Thus it is that sentiment adverse or favorable, injures or aids us to some extent. But such an uplift is ephemeral, shifting, drifting, unreliable, and cannot be counted in estimating a man's real value. Calhoun said if the Negro could prove his ability to master the Greek subjunctive he might prove his title to manhood. Are we men and brook such insults? Where lies the trouble? There are thousands of our race today who have mastered the Greek language, and not only one language, but three or four other tongues which they read and speak is purely and readily as their own. Professors Scarborough and Simmons have given to the civilized world the best Greek textbooks known and used in the Universities, and they are Negroes. They have shown their values. They, and thousands of our race have proven their title to manhood. But where are the Calhoun's of that dominant race? They are in evidence, and see that we have earned our title to manhood and womanhood. They have figured closely and estimate our real value on America's balance sheet. But many who hold the national pen, write us still in the depraved, warped condition of one hundred years ago. I tremble for this country when I remember. God is just. Calhoun and Dixon and all who sanction such vile imputations, are showing to the good and great of all races, their real values on God's great balance sheet, by vilifying a race of the same country, a race to whom they owe their wealth, their education, their inborn love, superiority, and supercillious, vanity, pride and contemptible hauier. I say it without fear of contradiction, the Anglo-American owe to the Afro-American of the United States their learning, capital, social, political and religious standing, I say they owe it all to the Negroes of this land. They used the black man's strength free of charge to till their fields, build their factories, and mansions, their forts, to nurse their Anglo children. They robbed the Negro women of their God-given virtue, forcing them to submit to the rearing of their Afro-Anglo children to replenish and stock the slave mart and thus increase the value of their vast plantations, factories, cities and banks. It was the Afro-American's brain and brawn that cared for and in toto, made and kept, all things that made life beautiful and carefree for the continually rising generation of purely Anglo-Americans. It was our race that in silent, degrading humiliation and agonizing pangs, gave birth to and reared an article for market, the greatest money-making commodity know, that article in whose veins flowed the commingled blood of master and slave. Noble blood of the Anglo and ignoble blood of the Airo (I leave the reader to correct the error in placing the terms noble and ignoble.) In that day of slavery and usurpation, the Negro gave forth his best service; he spent his brain and blood, his muscular and spiritual energies. His body and soul went up as an unholy sacrifice, for the benefit and worldly aggrandizement of the white man. In that day the Negro paid his debt to the world for his living and the debt of the future existence of his descendants for hundreds of years to come. God's great day book and ledger is stained with the blood-curdled accounts of master and slave, and it behooves the debtors to lessen their accounts with their creditors of darker hue. Suffice to say, then, that we, as a race, have over-paid for our existence, maintenance and education, up to the present time; and have a surplus that America owes us, and from which we do not yet draw. Let us place both races today on equal footing. Lay feeling and sentiment aside, and tackle our subject as the world reckons it—the cool, exact, practical, business-like world. What is our value? Not in California nor New York; not to our husbands, or progeny; for they would say, we are worth our weight in gold or maybe in ashes. The neighbors would write us down an unmitigated nuisance. But what do we represent to the world? What is our market value? What have we cost? What have we brought in market? This calculation must be made as we estimate any commodity. Men are like watches. Estimate cost of material; how much enhanced by labor, refining and delicate workmanship. Then its utility, its beauty, its adaptability to the end and purpose of its manufacture. Lastly, is there a demand in the market for such articles? Does it meet a want? Will it go, and go right? Is it durable and reliable? How often wound and repaired? Will it keep perfect time and need no watching? There's no radical difference between men and watches. In both the fundamental item is the question of material, its enhancement, by labor. Let us look at our raw material. Whatever notions we may indulge in on the theory of evolution, and the laws of atavism, or heredity, all must concede that no individual character receives its raw material new created, and independent of the rock from which it sprung. No life is bound up within the period of its conscious existence. No personality dates its origin from its birthdate. The elements that are twisted into the cord did not begin when first the tiny thread became visible in the great warp of humanity. When a child is born the threads are spun, the color and fineness of the weft is determined. The materials that go to make the man, the probabilities of his character, and activities, the conditions and circumstances of his growth, and his quantum of resistance and mastery are the resultant of forces, which have been accumulating for generations. So that to make a perfect man or woman, reformation must begin many generations back and gradually separate gold from dross. There used to be a law in England, a system of deal, by which a lot of land was fixed to a family, and its posterity forever. Passing from one heir to another, he could use, abuse, mortgage, sterilize—eliminate every element of value—but he could not sell it; though he encumbered it two or three times its value. It still was his, in all its squalidness. And like a shattered, debased personality, it would haunt him and his forever. When an heir came into an estate like this, he was poorer than if he had no inheritance. He was chained to a life load of debt, labor and disgrace. Happier would he be with no capital, except his own possibili- Number 5 ties, with no past, no pedigree. So with our race: mortgaged to its full value by high notions, extravagance, the sensuality of ancestors; with fences of character cut down by slavery, by debauchery, vice, ignorance, and indolence. Not a very valuable possession. But an energetic heir can pay off some of the debt, arrest the work of destruction, put up a few fences, and leave the next generation less involved. Thus each descendant will inherit a stronger will to further build up the estate. Here we reach our greatest item of value—labor. Labor creates all values. A gold mine has no more value than clay, until it is worked. Labor bestowed on iron, the cheapest of all metals, multiplies its value 400,000 times; making it worth 65 times its weight in gold. For example. 1 lb. of good iron is worth 4c. 1 lb. of inch screws is worth $1. 1 lb. of steel wire is worth $7. 1 lb. of sewing needles is worth $14. 1 lb. of fish hooks is worth $50. 1 lb. of jewel screws is worth $3,500. 1 lb. of hair springs is worth $16,000. While 1 lb. of fine gold is only worth $248. It is the same four-cent iron, in the rough, that is worth $16,-000 in the hairspring; and it was labor that so enhanced its value. There is a parallel rise of value in the materials of which the Negro race is made. No animal so helpless, so entirely worthless, so destitute of independent existence, as man, at birth. He cannot protect himself from a draft of wind. What is he wortin? Just what a leak is worth to a ship. He is a parasite, a destroyer of values. He thrives on Nature's gifts. In infancy, he thrives on another. The mother might think him worth his weight in gold, but that's all sentiment—not business. There's no danger of her making such a sale. All well know what an outlay of time, labor and money must be made before he will be worth his weight in ashes. It is a heavy investment, and education covers it all—the working up of this raw material, and fitting it into the worlds work, to rapidly the world's need. Human raw material, was far below par, to begin with, but this essence of dust, will become, through labor, the beauty of the world, the paragon of animals; noble in reason and infinite in faculty. Education then is the safest investment possible to man. It pays the largest dividends, and gives the grandest product to the world—a real man. The demand is greater than the supply, and the world pays well for what it prizes. Every one owes the world at the age of 21 at least $3,000 for board and school bill, and he is the world's pauper until he gives back that equivalent and accumulates some capital to aid his generation. Every race of boasted intelligence must realize that the law of true harmony in a nation, is to justly live, and justly let live. The harmony of a despotism is the quiet of a muzzled month, the smoldering of a crusted volcano. I need not say that the present peace existing between the Anglo American and the Afro-American produced by suppression, is neither natural nor desirable. The ever increasing despotism of the whites is not copied from Nature. All through God's universe, we see eternal harmony and symmetry, as the unvarying result of the equilibrium of opposing forces. Fair play in an equal fight for life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, is the law of nature, the command of God; and it is what we, as a race, demand according to our real value. And any race which acts like a solitary bully, suppressing his fellowman, with his foot on the Con. on Page 7 ADVERTISING RATES, 50c PER INCH. Peace! LET THAW GO. --- ored sweeper in Los Angeles.

Primaries March 23. Election April 6. Polls open from 6 a. m. to 7 p. m. San Diego Locals. GUESS WHO Went to Lo Angeles Monday? Didn't like it? Is playing at the Casino theater? Can't stay home now-a-days? Fond of being scared at the expo' grounds? Tried to turn their house upside down? Thought a finger nail file was going to keep a certain young man from going to Los Angeles. Entertained a certain young lady during a certain young man's absence? Went to the exposition Sunday afternoon? Is a very happy woman since her mother arrived? San Diego Locals Mr. A. L. Ramsey was a visitor in the Angel City a few days this week and returned to the Exposition city, where he is employed by his brother, Mr. Geo. A. Ramsey. Mr. Teddy Thomas, recently of Buffalo, N. Y., is a visitor in the Exposition City, where he intends to make his home. Mr. and Mrs. Carlisle Ferry of San Diego are still in Imperial City where they have purchased the Los Angeles rooming house. The Misses Nona Jackson, Esther Shannon and Mr. A. L. Ramsey were the guests of Mr. Teddy Thomas at a theater party Saturday night, Political Flashes. Major Ferry is the logical candidate for us to support. D. K. Adams, incumbent candidate for Council, should be re-elected. Mr. Adams has always been a good friend to our people and now is the time to show our appreciation. We are off to the polls and voting for Akerman for Mayor. Hon. John S. Akerman should receive the entire colored support at the primaries. Miss Louise Caroline Heilbron candidate for the Board of Education, is the kind of woman that we all should feel proud of and support. Miss Heilbron is experienced in this line, having for a number of years been entrusted in juvenile cases. The Eagle's correspondent appeals to the voters of San Diego to mark a cross after Miss Louise Caroline Heilbron's name, the logical candidate. Mr. Morton Langford, candidate for Council, will no doubt put up a great fight for the council. Having been, and now council reporter, has always showed courtesy to our people. Mr. Langford will receive a good majority of the colored vote at the primaries. Likes the medium? --- Herbert R. Fay, incumbent candidate for Council, will be re-elected by a big majority. We are all with him. John S. Akerman for May r Vote for him; tell your friend; to it now. SAN DIEGO FLIGHTS. Mrs. Ernest Bynum. Hostess Mr. nnd Mrs. Jack Oliver Honored Guests.

Both were delighted with San Diego as soon as they laid foot on our soil. Major Fay Refuses to Show Partiality. It is not often that you get a dining car chef to take charge of the kitchen in a construction camp, yet that is just what Major Fay, superintendent of the water department, has been able to do. The chef's name is William Bowman, and he is said to be one of the wonders of the county when it comes to getting up a meal. At Pine Creek camp the water department has about 100 men building the Pine Creek dam. Major Fay's clerks tried everywhere to find a competent cook, one who would stick, and one who could deliver the goods. At last one applied, but on account of his color there was some hesitation on the part of the clerks. Major Fay didn't hesitate a minute. "All cooks look alike to me," he declared. "This man is a voter and a citizen of San Diego and as much entitled to a job as any man who has been in here looking for one." So Bill went out to Pine Creek. Two or three croakers predicted dire things, said the men would quit and that they wouldn't stand for it, and all that. This cook got out to Pine Creek, put on his white cap and coat and apron and sailed into the kitchen with an arm full of cooking tools such as only experts only carry. He proceeded to cook a meal for the half-famished men in Pine Creek camp. There wasa suspension of judgment. By noon the next day there was a reversal, and now you couldn't drive the men out of that camp if you wanted to. All of which illustrates the methods Major Fay has pursued in his management of the affairs of the water department. He has no pets. He plays no favorites. Every man in the department has to stand on his own feet and deliver the goods. If a man don't deliver the goods he soon gets lost in the shuffle and another man takes his place. That's why Major Ray and the water department have become an institution in San Diego where the laboring men of the city find a fair shake and no favors, where if there is a job and a San Diego citizen needs it, he gets it, no matter whether he be old, young, white or black, a Yankee, or an Italian, it makes no difference to Fay, as long as the man be an honest, square citizen of San Diego and gives an honest day's work for the $2.50 now paid. This rate of $2.50 also was established by Fay after he got into the Council. The city paid at one time less than that, but by dint of hard work and keeping everlastingly at it, Major Fay got the rate raised to $2.50 and that is now the minimum for day labor. In the case of the cook at Pine Creek it depends on how many men he feeds what he is paid and his pay is good at that; he earns it, which is what Fay insists upon from every man in the department. Major Fay has been at the head of the water department for five 0 years. During that time the department has grown from a small distributing plant to a huge system valued at nearly $8,000,000. By his insistence that all city work should be done by day labor and force account, instead of by contract, Major Fay has succeeded in giving employment to over 900 men during the year 1914, and every one of them was a voter or taxpayer of San Diego, a bona fide citizen. Major Fay is a candidate for reelection at the primaries and at the city election. Some of the arguments in his favor are these: this plan 900 citizens or were given employment the past year. All construction work necthion with improvement for in bond issue, and $980,000, were direct Common Council to bder his supervision—oeder way and complete $336,817.19, a saving has been accomplished. The Common Council adopted every recommen has made during his for improvement to system. His ability is proven by his selection and unanimous election as President of the Common Council and Superintendent of the Water Department by his colleagues; by testimony of every National Engineering Journal—see Engineer-Contracting (Feb. 3, 1915), Engineering News (Feb. 18, 1915), Engineering Record (Aug. 16, 1913)—and by testimony of the local press. By his intimate knowledge of the city's needs from five years' incumbency and study as a legislator, and especially as Superintendent of the Department of Water. In this work he has been associated with ten of the leading engineers and water experts in solving the city's future needs. By reason of his personal supervision the Water Fund showed a profit of $150,000 in 1914. He devised and carried out improvements in the water system that caused a reduction in insurance rates of nearly 30 per cent, or a saving of over $75,000 per annum to the citizens of this city. He devised a plan to employ only citizens of San Diego on city work, and to increase their pay to a living wage, which was adopted by the Common Council. Under GUY T.

The Common Council has adopted every recommendation he has made during his incumbency for improvement to the water system. He has kept overhead expense down to .086 per cent on Water Fund, and .06 on administration of bond fund (state authorizes 12 per cent), thereby causing a surplus to accumulate to the credit of these funds. ces, 1914 ..... $423,798.21 Operating and maintenance Saving.....$150,348.41 Receipts, 1910.....$191,000.00 Accounting force.....7 Receipts, 1914.....$423,798.00 Accounting force.....12 Miles of mains, 1910.....230.17 Miles of mains, 1915.....424.12 Increase in mileage.....84% Increase in expense.....30% Water rates 1910-1915 the same and no increase needed.

Martin of Los Angeles is stopping at the Agnippe in this city for a few weeks, and has ordered The California Eagle sent to him while in the city. He can be found at the Y. M. C. A. when in Los Angeles. The Home of the Young People is the Agnippe. Eight couple came over from Los Angeles Sunday and they all took dinner. Mrs. Harrison is a favorite among the young people as she always makes it pleasant for them. Dr. Duvall preached at Scott Chapel Sunday morning. He preached from Galatians, a very able sermon as the Doctor always does. Quite a number went over to Los Angeles Tuesday to attend the concert given by Madame Hackley. Don't forget the great concert. Fifty Years of Freedom, that is soon to be given under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A. We regret to hear of the death of the late H. C. Dawson. He had many friends in this city. He was a native of Mississippi, and others that came from that State say he made a success. His health began to fail about two years ago; he had been in business about 12 years in this city. The funeral service was held from the Roberts undertaking chapel, 1154 Los Angeles street. We regret to learn of the segregation in the Los Angeles Fire Department and in the navy yard at Portsmouth, Va. A surprise on Mr. Griffin at his home Monday evening, on Sierra Bonita avenue, by his many friends, was highly appreciated. He invited them back again. COL. 4729 Mr. F. M. Prince's birthday anniversary was celebrated Friday evening at his home by the choir of the A. M. E, Church. They presented him with a pair of gold cuff buttons. Mrs. Prince made a large cake in honor of his birthday. Candles were placed on the cake, each one representing one year, but no one said how old he was, but there were so many that it made the cake look as though a nursery had been planted on it. Mr. Prince is the bass singer of the choir, also saw the light in March, so he must be noisy. Mrs. Prince who is doing something to make home pleasant for her husband left no stone unturned. Mr. George W: Sims, of the segregation promoters of 1913, was caught Monday after knocking and stealing. He was in a game of base ball; he knocked up a fly ond was caught stealing the second base. The Tax Payers' Protective association is now busy, as on the first day of April is the day they will have to elect three city commissioners to serve four years, and some of the candidates will get an April fool says the chairman of the political committee of the association, who is Wm.

THE TILLMAN LUCKY CO. S. B. Tillman, the well-known contractor of the West side, and W. E. Lucky of Gladys avenue, have formed a partnership in the well drilling business, Mr. Lucky having bought a half interest with Mr. Tillman. They will operate in the Victorville district and elsewhere. These gentlemen will no doubt be a success, as both are men who can be relied upon and they have a first-class line of machinery that will do the work and all they ask is a trial and they guarantee the best work at the lowest cost. They have more than $2000.00 worth of machinery and start out under the most favorable auspices. They are the pioneers among our people in this line of work and we all wish them the success which we know will be theirs.

Charity Near Home. [From [the Serap Book by J. D. Reynolds.] A man and his wife in a little back room, Who hadn't on oil stove to lighten the gloom, Whose children were learning to ask with a sob. The reason why father was out of a job, Beheld from the window a well-laden dray with gifts for the sufferers far, far away. "I am tempted," the woman explained with a moan. "To wish ourselyes there; where the want is well-known." A generous thrill sets the heart all aglow For the sorrows of people we never may know. Like astronomers searching the stars far away, Regardless of earth and our own little day, The distant and strange we would fain understand. Regardless of problems that lie close at hand— For instance, those folks in the little back room, Who shiver and hunger up there in the gloom. —Washington Star. The Lexington Herald Writes Lofty Editorial on Race Segregation Fineest Word Yet Uttered on this Un-American System. Excoriates Wilson for Failure to right this great wrong [From the Scrap Book by J. D. Reynolds, Feb. 1st, 1915.] We regret the President has again permitted himself to display irritation to those who went to him as Chief Executive of the Nation and refused to answer questions put to him about the treatment of public employees. When the women who are striving to secure equal suffrage approached him he took refuge behind the prerogative that every private citizen but no public official has the right to exercise, a display of temper, and a declaration that he must refuse to be catechized. It is peculiarly unfortunate that he should give the exhibition of offended dignity upon occasions when women, who have not a vote, and negroes, who are the weaker race, are those who appeal to him. If he believes that the policy of segregation should bb adopted by the United States government he should have no hesitation in so stating frankly ane giving his reasons therefor. If he believes that the different races, of which the people of the United States are composed, should each be segregated he has a right so to believe and so to state. Has he a right as president to act in accord with that belief? Is the president willing to have himself quoted as authority and citied as an example by those of lower order and more brutal instincts who in states where there are a large number of persons of different races, favor putting one class above the law and another of different color beyond the protection of the law? Mr. W. C. Buckner of the Dixie Jubilee Singers, will address the Y. M. C. A. next Sunday after noon at 3 o'clock. His subject is "Blowing of young men." The speaker has shown himself, to be a pleasing speaker, and is much interested in the Young Men's Christian Association: Watch this Column for Bargains In Real Estate For Sale—Some Snaps 6-room modern house on East 21st, near, near Central avenue; price $3,250, $1,000 down, balance at $20.00 or $25.00 per month. 5-room modern house on East 21st, near Naomi street; $4,800 cash, or will exchange for three store buildings to be erected on Main street. 5-room California house, lot 50x150, fruit trees, on East 48th near Central ave; $1,750; $250.00 down, balance to suit.

Peace! Prosperity! Union! Union! The Negro Welfare Club of San Francisco and of Oakland are to be commended for their great work in those cities against the Clansman. President Wilson's friends, Carranza and Villa, upon whom he relied to pacify Mexico, have failed him and it is said that he is now looking to Zapata to do the work. We would advise that in the approaching primaries and election that our people should study the political conditions for themselves and cast your votes accordingly. The Eagle will endeavor to present the issues and leave the matter for your best judgment. Congress has at last adjourned and the Southern fire eaters will at least keep silent for a spell at least in meditation as to their failure to pass any Jim Crow legislation. The Golored people should profit by the unnecessary afront of the Los Angeles Times and give a heartier support to their own journals. The white man's paper cannot be depended upon, from Gen. Otis down to the insipid Brown, the white Negro publisher. Our people should encourage by their patronage to the fullest extent the highly creditable establishments conducted by the Prentice Dry Goods Company on East 9th Street, and Third Street; the J. H. Shackleford Furniture Co., the Holmes Williams Co., Cummings Drug Co., and in fart all of our various enterprises in our great city. The Clansman pictures, thanks to the perfidy of some raw politics, are showing the fifth week. But it will take more than this to stay the progress of this race. We have, like the Danes who in time of war destroy the hearing of their horses that they might not become frightened in time of battle, we have turned a deaf ear to all who oppose us and are making history in the mighty march of progress that will outdo fiction by its strangeness. DONES VS. THOMPSON. It has been suggested and we understand tacitly agreed to by the two Colored men who are candidates for the City Council, to call a mass meeting of the Colored voters and submit their candidacy to said voters and the candidate receiving the smallest number of votes is to retire in favor of the one receiving the highest. If said agreement is entered into in good faith by both participants we thing it the very best proposition suggested, and shows a proper spirit by both of these gentlemen. ```markdown ``` THE UNIVERSAL CRY FOR PEACE. An abundance of rainfall and the glorious rays of sunshine upon the earth promises abundance in food stuffs to mankind, and yet from all angles of humanity we hear the lamentable cry "hard times." As we look about us daily for the cause of the present condition, and are wont to prescribe a cure for the same, we must confess that we are at a loss for the origin of the present financial stringency. We only know that some say that these are Democratic times, which is equivalent to hard times, while others ascribe it to the European situation. But we veritably believe that neither is the real cause of the spirit of discontent that predominates the world today. Do you ask what we believe? We believe that man has lost the trail of real life that leads to the goal of true happiness—that means contentment. If you please look about you—there are those who are drinking out of the cups of prosperity, and yet some are rejoicing while others are sorrowing. Those that rejoice are satisfied with God's gifts through nature. They have found a way to simple life, and they who are sorrowing have lost their way in searching for the things of life which after all are least profitable to them. We advise that even as the Africans set aside a day when they pray to their God for better things. We too set aside a day for fasting and pray that we too may have a fuller realization of the things that are godly, and that the mightly bulwark of wars and rumors of war that disturb our happiness will be forever destroyed, that we may come into a riper appreciation of God's goodness. M. H. H. RECITAL IN SONG AT TRINITY AUDITORIUM. Madam Hackley Pays High Tribute to Colored Composers. The "Folk Song Festival" under the direction of Mme. E. Azalia Hackley Tuesday evening at Trinity Auditorium was an awakening to the music lovers and race lovers of this city. The 105 voices used by Mme. Hackley certainly deserve credit for their part on this occasion, and too much credit cannot be awarded Mme. Hackley for the time and pains spent by her in training members of the race how to do credit through the medium of song to Afro-American composers. What Mme. Hackley has done in Los Angeles she will do in other cities in the near future. Some of the local talent who rank high in the music world of this city, who assisted Mme. Hackley on this occasion were, Mr. John Gray in a series of piano selections by Coleridge Taytor; Miss Lorenzo E. Jordan, who through her superb execution on the piano, predicts for herself a great future, Miss Minnie Albritton, Miss Maud Rosemond, Mme. L. Curtis Shaffer, Mrs. E. Hughley, Mrs. R. Daniels, Mr. N. King, Mrs. E. Gould, and Mr. Roy Albright. In the recitals Mme. Hackley will not only do much to encourage members of the race possessing talent, but will likewise do much to encourage publishing houses to pay more attention to Negro composers.

Review by Staff of The Eagle On Our Annual Visit. One will go a long ways to find a city the size of San Diego with the grit and amibtion of this city at the furthermust point of the United States on the bay of that name. Here we find a class of citizenship which is up and doing and have builded the greatest ex- position of any city of its, size in the world, and they are running it with great credit, not only to themselves, but to the entire coun- try as well. No one who can should fail to visit this fair. It is all that it is represented to be and no one can only in a faint way tell of its wondrous beauty. It is a cast of tasting the pudding to tel! of its sweetness and flavor. The Eagle has an appreciative clientage here, it is firmly estab- lished, and it is our custom to an- nually “visit our readers, the busi- ness men and firms, who see the great work which we are doing, and they are not backward in en- couraging us by giving to us a hearty support. So, even in these Democratic times, they realize our worth and continue to give to us a hearty recognition. The following firms and indi- viduals are now and have been willing to give to this great en- terprise their support: The Crest Market & Grocery, Deans Millin- ery, Mode Cloak and Suit House, Mdme.

Phone Wilshire 3842 SUBSCRIBE FOR THE EAGLE The attendance at each service was good and as usual a good many visitors and friends were present. The lesson was reviewed by our ex-superintendent Prof. Biggers. Mrs. Annie Mitchell was appointed to prepare our Easter exercises with other assistances. The pastor preached at 11 o'clock, his subject being the "Degrees in Religion." His text was from the 3 Chapter, 1 Titu, "Be ye all of one mind, having compassion one for another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous, etc." He said there was certain degrees of unfoldment. If we are born of God we begin at once to love as that is the first degree that you can judge people by if they can love everybody, and we cannot enjoy heaven unless we love one another, and when we know our true relationship with our brother we would love more. The next degree is forgiveness; if we cannot pass the first we cannot pass the second. We must take in the old bagging of the world and give out good silk as forgiveness means to give for. If we don't love perfectly we won't have this good to give. Third degree is patience with all. If Jesus was with us why should we not have patience with others and if God allow people to do what they want we ought to do the same and let patience have the perfect work. Fourth degree is kindness without which we have nothing to give any body and it is one thing the world is very much in need of as it would do more good than long prayers; long testimonies or on a singing. Why should we bleed the hearts of God's loved ones with unkind words? If you have the above degrees you can make heaven any where and the world need to cultivate the Christ spirit. At the close of the morning services the pastor was asked to pray God's blessing on three little infants and it seemed as if a holy calmness rested over the church while he performed the sacred prayer for each of them. They were little Theodore Marshman, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Marshman. Little Albert C. Harrington, son of Bro. and Sister Gussie B. Harrington. Little Edith Azalia Ailerwine, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. P. L. Allerwine. There will be a short sermon on Sunday evening and a sacred concert given by the B. Y. P. U. We hope to see all our friends as it is quite an interesting program. Sister Marshall remains quite ill at the home of relatives, 1533 E. 21 St. The pastor will occupy the pulpit on Sunday morning as usual. We had baptism on Wednesday evening after the prayer meeting. New Hope Baptist Church 1623 Paloma Avenue--Rev. C.H. Anderson, D.D., Pastor. Last Sunday the New Hope Baptist Church was pleased to have a large and appreciative audience throughout the day. Our friends are always welcome and the church takes this method of extending to every one a cordial invitation. The Holy Ghost was present in mighty power at the morning service. The covenant meeting was inspired by all, each person being inspired with new zeal to do more in the future to uplift Christ and His kingdom on earth. The Sunday school convened at 9:30 a. m., with Supt. E. Payne in the chair. The school was largely attended and the lesson ably discussed. The B. Y. P. Union was called to order at 6:30 p. m. by President B. Highbaugh. Many new faces were in attendance. The discussion was very timely. At the evening service the pastor preached a strong sermon on the Crucifixion of Christ. The Dr. was at his best, we were blessed both spiritually and financially. There were six accession during the day, two for Baptism. The Lord's Supper will be celebrated next Sunday, March 14. The assistant pastor Rev. Howard Folke will occupy the pulpit at the morning service. At the evening service Rev. E. Payne will preach. All members and friends are cordially invited to be present. B. F. ANDERSON, church reporter E. 8th Street Christian Church Last week we beloved pastor received the sad news of his mother's death. We, the members of the Christian church, wish to express our heartfelt sympathies in this time of his bereavement. Rev. I. J. Williams took his place last Sunday and preached two excellent sermons. In the morning his text was found in Exodus 14:13. He told the story of the children of Israel fleeing from the land of Egypt and Pharaoh and his host that pursued after them. How they were saved by God and the Egyptians were drowned. He spoke of how the Christians of today sometimes get in trouble and can see no possible way out but if their trust is in Jehovah a way of escape is made possible. In the evening he spoke from 1 Kings 18:21, "Why, halt thee between two opinions." Obidiah who was with King Ahab was a servant of God, although Ahab did not know it, so it is today. God always has people somewhere that is ever alert for His cause. We must trust in God as did Elijah. God is able to deliver us from all evil. He holds us in the hollow of His hand. We as Elijah need more faith in God. Sometimes God sends you and me to do mission work, quite often to poor people. He concluded by saying "Be faithful. Watch unto God with prayer." Sunday March 14 Attorney Kelly will speak at the Y. P. S. C. E. at 7. p. m. All are cordially invited to attend. Sunday March 14 Rev. McMickens will occupy the pulpit. Sermon—Morning: "Israel's first King." Evening — "True great-niss." A fine musical and literary is being planned for March 28 at 8 p. m. by some of the best talent in the city.

REYNOLDS 1895 Providence Inst'l Church Last Sunday was a galer day at Providence church, everything was at high water mark, great attendance and great services. Next Sunday promises to be just as great a day. Pastor Williams will preach at both services and all who hear him want to hear him again for he tells you something to help you. It is truly inspiring to hear the great choir and pipe organ. You are invited to hear them next Sunday and be convinced. Solo by Mdm. Carrie N. Taylor. The funeral services of Brother Thomas J. Harris, a Mason in good standing, formerly of Leavenworth, Kansas, but for the last 3 years a very highly respected citizen of Huntington Beach, Cal., who departed this life March 8th, was under the personal supervision of Grand Master T. A. Harris of this State, borne by the Masonic lodge of Los Angeles to the last resting place with Masonic fraternal rites on Wednesday the 10th in the beautiful cemetery of Huntington. The minister of the white Baptist church preached an excellent and most impressive sermon. The good wife of the mayor and cashier of the 1st National bank were among some of the leading citizens of Huntington Beach who paid their tribute of respect by sending their autos, lending their presence at the church services and following the remains to its final rest. The relatives and friends of Los Angeles were present who shared the grief of the bereaved wife, Mrs. Louisa Harris, who is a sister of the late Hon. B. Bruce. There were many beautiful floral offerings which covered the mound. A GREAT BOOK ON THE NEGRO QUESTION By Prof. Charles Alexander Every reader of this journal should have a copy of "Battles and Victories of Allen Allensworth," the great book just published by Sherman, French & Company of Boston, Mass., written by Prof. Charles Alexander of Los Angeles, California. This wonderful book contains the narrative of the life of Colonel Allen Allensworth, who rose from the lowest levels of degradation in slavery to the rank of Lieutenant-Colonel in the Regular Army of the United States, the highest rank yet attained by a colored man; and it also contains the history of the Negro race from the beginning of the slave trade in the United States up to the present time. This book is written in the most fascinating style, with bits of moral philosophy and sound wisdom, altogether admirable. It is intensely interesting to readers of every class. It is one of the really great books on the Negro question—a most valuable contribution to our historical lit By William E. Curtis. In the Chicago Record-Herald of May 24th, writes:— That a party of gentlemen in Cleveland, Ohio, who were interested in the conceptions of the Savior by different artists. They formed a company, and after contributing the necessary capitals, they painted portraits of the Savior, each expressing, without instructions or suggestions, his own idea of how Christ must have appeared at his last. The results of this experiment are now on exhibition in the rooms of the American Art Company at 45 West Second Street. For these artists are all paid for at the Artists' price. Mr. Henry C. Osborn is president of the Company, Mr. Julius F. Jane vice-president, and Jephtha H. Wade, Jr., secretary of The purpose of the Company is to vivify the personality of our Savior, the minds of the American people. The minds of the American people. Reni, Hoffmann, Sheffer, Raphael and Munkacsy are all famous as painters of Christ. These portraits were on canvas in Chicago, 1893. A selection of competent Art Critics, chosen from the World's Congress of religion, acted as judges. Which of these conceptions appealed to them? It was unanimously conceded by them that "Munkacsy's Christ Before Pilate" was the most compelling exposition. In this grand picture strength and beauty predominate in the expression of the face. Yet, wfth that holy calm of renunciation, the giving of self, and the love he brought to this life, especially for the oppressed and those whom the world scorns.

Colored Art and Artists THE NEW YORK TIMES Bert Williams, the famous comedian, is appearing with the Ziegfield Follies at the Mason this week. It is easy to realize the position Mr. Williams occupies on the American stage from some of the press notices he has received. The Evening Herald states: "—let us give deserved credit to that pastmaster in the art of making people laugh, Mr. Bert Williams, the colored comedian, who by right of his clever, inborn ability and talent, dominates any stage fortune to secure his services, never was fun- The Frisco Four is making good at San Bernardino this week.

The proceeds of this concert are to nier in his life, his droll wit permeating the whole entertainment. In the matter of fun, Mr. Williams holds the headline position, and to him rightfully must go the bulk of praise." Mr. Warnack says in the Los Angeles Times: "—he is a very rare artist. His is the sort of fun that makes an audience better. To me he was the bright star of the performance. He was not repeating something after the fashion of parrots and most actors. He was inspired by that blazing light called consciousness." go to the James Harmon House Hoose Hall of Physiology as a gift of the colored students, about 12 in number, who are now attending the University of Southern California. This hall of hyciology is out one of the preliminary steps in realizing a "greater university," and is dedicated to Professor James Harmon Hoose now in his 81st year, sixty of which have been spent in teaching, and the last 20 at the University of Southern California. The University of Southern California is doing more for our people than any college of like size in the country. Not only are privileges extended to all, but in many cases scholarships are given to colored students. Let us make our presence at this concert a token of our appreciation of the great opportunities which the University of Southern California is extending to our people. HOWARD P. DREW.

Honor Memory of Douglass [From the Serap Book by J. D. Reynolds.] We quote the following radical editorial from the live Pittsburg Courier under the heading, "Keep our men before us:" "February is often called the birth month of great individuals. Indeed history argues as much, and during this month, throughout our country, the lives of great men will be held up as land marks of the nations and as inspiration to the rising young. There is comfort in the thought that the Negro has an opportunity to hold his own; to eulogize the lives of his great leaders of years ago, and to point to their characters as examples worthy of emulation. The Courier believes we cannot be too earnest in our endeavor to keep alive the deeds of our great men. We have striking examples of the fitness of the custom all about us. The Italian never forgets columbus; the Scotchman delights to celebrate the natal day of the inimitable Bobby Burns; the Irishman believes in St. Patrick; and our own American populace are profuse in their laudation of the men who have built up this nation. And there is a purpose in all this. The Italian is taught that the greatest man of all times was an Italian, and so with the German and other races. They never allow their conception of a great man to leave their own race to find their ideal; and they persistently hold them up to all the world, and thus history carries their names from generation to generation. We must do likewise. We have men who have contributed too much to the world of today to be forgotten or neglected by us. We shall prove untrue to our own, and unappreciative if we held up men of other races at the exclusion of our own. What other men have done, men may yet do with the necessary encouragement. To forget the men who labored in the world of yesterday is to shut out hope for those who must bear the burden of tomorrow. To the greatest men that lived should be one of us or we are untrue to ourselves. J. D.
