Primary Vote CONGRESSMAN CHAS. H. RANDALL PUTS THE OPPOSITION TO FLIGHT; MAKES WINNING FIGHT FOR RE-ELECTION The voters of the Ninth Congressional district are lining up in a solid formation for the reelection of the Hon. Charles H. Randall in this district, and he will receive at the hands of the voters of this district a strong endorsement all along the line. They are supporting him because he has made good, in other words, at all times he has stood for the people, he has stood uniformly for the protection of the industries of California and all of the other measures which have meant so much to the people. The following are some of the measures that claimed his vote and his support: 1. The Child Labor Act, which will rid the nation of the disgrace of child labor in mines and factories. 2. For the tax on products of war munition factories. 3. For an increase surtax on incomes. 4. For a tariff on dye stuffs and for a stringent anti-dumping clause. 5. Introduced legislation on the subject of prohibition and secured favorable reports by com JUDGE ROBERT W. MAC DONALD FOR SUPERIOR JUDGE "I believe that no man should be made a Judge of the Superior Court until he has gained practical experience in one or more of the lesser courts," says Judge Robert W. MacDonald, of Pasadena, candidate for a place on the Superior bench. For the past 15 years he has been police judge in Pasadena, and also has presided over a Justice Court during the same period. He holds both positions at present. "In all fields of human activity man reaches the higher places through a series of promotions. A man isn't made a locomotive engineer until he has served as fireman, and he isn't made fireman until he has served as wiper in the roundhouse. The city editor in a newspaper office gains his place only after an apprenticeship as reporter, and the managing editor's job comes to a man who has made good as city editor. So it is on down the list. Why should the Superior Judgeship, or the Judgeship in any of the higher courts, be an exception? Experience should count in this, just the same as in anything else. It going to lie that the authority mittees on the same in the present Congress. War, and for Spanish-American widows; secured the passage of 11 special acts granting pensions. 7. For the Rural Credits law, which will do more for the back-to-the-farm movement than any legislation of the past. 6. For increased pensions for widows of veterans of the Civil 8. For the immigration bill, which is really a model protective measure for American labor. 9. For the Federal Workmen's Compensation Act, which protects every employee and his dependent ones in every government position, high or low. 10. For the shipping bill, which is a long delayed effort to establish American commerce on the seas. And many other measures has had his vote and support. Because we have a man like his who is eternally on the job for the interests of the great masses, they are lining up to give to him a vote of confidence of which he might well feel proud. The many colored voters of the district are grateful to Mr. Randall for his stand on Jim Crow legislation introduced by the Southern fire-eaters during his service in Congress he has invariably voted against this legislation, and appreciating the same they are giving to him their united support on Nov. 7. who has served at Police Judge or Justice of the Peace, or both, is better qualified to fill acceptably a place on the Superior Court bench than is an attorney who seeks the latter place without any apprenticeship in the lower courts." SIGNIFICANT MASS MEETING Last Thursday evening at the 14th street School Auditorium the Colored Women's Republican Club held a public mass meeting. The object of the meeting was not to further the interest of any particular candidate, but to endorse the Republican ticket in its entirety, and to as far as possible, convince the people in this section that with the coming of Hughes into the presidency means the coming of better conditions in this country and government for all the people. Mrs. Geo. W. Clark, a member of the Friday Morning Club in a thirty minute address, so clearly pointed out the faults in President Wilson's Adamson and eight hour law that it was decided that they were not water proof and would not hold good. Mrs. Clark was clear, concise and thoroughly convincing in her remarks concerning the President's Mexican and European policy, and it was California Eagle believed that she converted those on the doubtful Hughes list. Atty. Frank Domingues in eloquent but strong language pleaded not only for Republican principles but for better conditions for all the people in this Republic. The other speakers were Mrs. Wrenn Reed, Mrs. K. Barr, Mrs. S. Cole, Rev. R. D. Arline, and Atty Griffith Jones, all of whom did honor to the occasion. The women are to be congratulated upon the manner in which the meeting was conducted. COLORED VOTERS' DONT'S If you want a District Attorney who will discriminate against you — DON'T vote for HELMS.

M. E. Church, Sunday Afternoon & Program, Big C A BIG DRY MASS MEETING Reports from all over Los Angeles, Pasadena, Monrovia, Santa Monica, Ocean Park, Riverside, San Bernardino and Santa Barbara are coming to us concerning the big Nov. 4 "Dry" Parade. Rev. R. D. Arlline, superintendent of the Coored division, and chairman of the parade committee invites the pastors and choirs of Los Angeles and the surrounding cities and towns to join in the great chorus, and help to herald the news—that the people who stand for high morals want California "Dry." This question of California Dry is occupying the closest attention of the thinking people not only of California, but of this country. We want our people to show their colors Sunday afternoon at the First A. M.

For these past years there has been on the property a five-room, rather delapidated building not suitable for the accommodation of the many old people who apply for shelter from time to time. Enthusiastic Baptists of the county and state for these seven years have worked on tirelessly with but one goal in sight, the erection of a creditable and suitable old folks home where the oft neglected aged of the Race may find shelter and comfort ```markdown ``` bought-then DONT vote for HELMS. MASS MEETING 4, 8th and Towne Avenue, at 3 O'clock—Strong Choir, Fine Music ation will come up to the stand- ard. Some of our churches and organizations will have special floats, and we want men and wom- en who are willing to walk. The Advisory Committee predict that this will be the biggest demon- stration along this line of endeav- or ever made by our people. Sunday afternoon at the First A. M. E. church will be our last big effort as far as meetings are concerned, and we hope to make it a fitting climax to our efforts Among the speakers will be some of the best from both Races. James C. Penn, the leading minis- ters, some of our active women workers are invited to occupy seats upon the rostrum and make short address. Persons interested in increasing our number of floats and adding in any way to the succes of our effort in this affair may do so by communicating with Mrs. S. Cole, Mrs. S. B. Strickland or Dr. R. D. Arline. Baptist Denomination Building The above is the new building now under erection by contractor Oliver Boyd at a cost of $5,000. Sunday, Nov. 26, it is expected that thousands will gather at Abile to witness the cornerstone laying which will be one of the most historical events of the church in this section. The new building when complete will be modern in every way and will accommodate about fifty persons. Those who are working arduously and earnestly for the earliest possible completion of the project solicit the support and assistance of the people at large who are interested in such humane undertakings.

Harris, at the Forum, Last Sunday. Interesting to the utmost was the address of Grand Master T. A. Harris on last Sunday. It was a resume of his trip, from which he has just returned, to the North, East and West. While the grand master lays no claim to oratory, he in a straight forward and intensely earnest manner recited the conditions in the places he visited, their environment, etc. His observations at Portland, Salt Lake, Denver, and Omaha were that the Japanese and white man was usurping the lowly and menial positions that have been always the sole prerogative of the colored man. At Portland, as far as lucrative employment, the Negro he said was a nonentity; at Kansas City, however, except when he got off at the Union station, he met white men as Red Caps, the showing for progress was indeed encouraging. At St. Louis it was not so good, but at Chicago he saw red progress and that our people had a chance in all the various industries. At Dayton, Ohio, he claims he found the most prejudiced northern city. The great cash register plant, at that place, with its thousands of employees, not a single colored person was employed. In New York he found our people living in marble and brown stone fronts, luxuriantly furnished, and also employed at almost everything, but they were not land owners. In Baltimore the finest church, poorly attended. He visited Washington, D. C., and when he entered old Varda- man was in the President's chair presiding, and all made a hasty exit. He described his trip through the Southland at length, described conditions there as to work liberal in the extreme, and vividly delineated his experience on the Jim Crow cars, and the deplorable educatoinal facilities of New Orleans. He went to Houston, Tex., and there, on a large sign at the city park, owned and kept by the taxpayers, was a sign: "Negroes and dogs not admitted." He visited the great churches and in almost all cases, east and south, the attendance was miserable, which caused the speaker to wonder, "Has his race forgotten God?" Are they straying away with churches which seat from 600 to 1200 having an attendance of from 25 to 200? He said this caused him to make this remark. He cautioned patience and a closer communion with our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ and in the end all will be well. At the conclusion of Mr. Harris's address Dr. Gilbert, of Savannah, Georgia, of the C. M. E. church, was introduced and in defense of the Southland scathingly denounced the false leadership as the cause of many of the ills of the South, and the crooked ministry, and spoke of the real progress of the Negro in Georgia and the South. His address was well received and was one to which all could in good faith say amen. Mrs. Andrew Scott, of 205 N. Savannah St., entertained 18 little folks in honor of her baby Milkred's first birthday. Little Milkred received many pretty and useful presents. Daisy refreshments were served and the afternoon was made marry with childish play and playtime. What the Churches are Doing PAGE TWO THE PEOPLE'S INDEPENDENT CHURCH OF CHRIST (Odd Fellows' Hall, Cor. Eighth and Wall Sta.) Odd Fellows Hall was again overcrowded with eager worshippers at both services of the Peoples Independent Church on last Sunday. The two forceful and extraordinary practical sermons by the pastor furnished abundance of spiritual food and thought. His subject was "Elisha healing Nasman." The text of the sermons was 2nd Kings 5:1. In the evening it was 2nd Kings 5:11. Three accessions to membership were realized. The pastor may continue his series of sermons on the great prophet Elisha, as such deep interest is being manifested in them, and he has received so many requests to continue the series to the end of the character. The choir simply electrified the audience with its beautiful music. Among the visitors was Mrs. Lillian Davis, the talented elocutionist, who gave one of her readings deeply imressing the congregation. Second A.M.E. Church. Rev. E. R. Johnson, Pastor The Pastor delivered two well received sermons Sunday, and one responded to the invitation "Come" Mr. Ira Hill joined at the evening service. There will be a baptizing next Sunday at 3 p. m. he church is engaged in a "Rally" for the mortgage debt, which will close on Rally Day, the last Sunday in November. Let every friend and well-wisher respond to this urgent call for aid in a worthy cause. The Ladies Aid and Art Club held its annual election last Friday night. Mrs. Emma Gray was elected president for the year. The Helping Hand Society is a new auxiliary created last week, during the very cloudy weather, but is destined to bring much sunshine to the church in the future. FIRST A. M. E.

On the first Sunday in November the pastor will administer the monthly communion. A number of our new converts will be baptised at the altar at the morning service. All are welcome to attend. After a three weeks vacation Prof. Bynum is back in the Sunday services directing our world-famous choir. A particular observation since his return is the special featuring of our choir orchestra. With our noted choir and growing orchestra a grand sacred program is being planned for the second Sunday evening in November. Attend each of our services Sunday and get the inspiration of our song service. With the efficient and gentlemanly President, Mr. Paul Williams, the Intermediate Endeavor Society is taking on new life. And just recently Mrs. Craw has organized the "Junior Society" for the younger folk. This last Society meets at 4 o'clock each Sunday in the Sunday School room. The Senior Endeavor and Intermediate Society meet at 6 o'clock each Sabath evening. All letters of real knowledge are urged to attend these meetings. The Official Board had a splendid meeting Tuesday night. The Stewards elected the following ladies as Stewardesses for the ensuing year. Meadames Warner, Fanner, Tucker, Williams, Clarkson, Willie Williams, Lucky and Middleton.

Church Notes REV. J. W. PRICE, Pastor The attendance at each service Sunday was very gratifying, as well as the marked interest manifested. It is very pleasing to us to be able to state that the friends in general are very kindly disposed toward this work, and we are sure that through our untiring efforts, and by the help of God this church will soon take her rightful place among the other christian organizations of the city. Please do not forget the annual fair given on the 8, 9, and 10th of November. This promises to be a very interesting affair, both socially and financially.

In the absence of the pastor at the evening service Rev. M. J. Johnson delivered the message. We are glad to note that Mrs. Mary Byars and Mrs. Cora Dennis who have been on the sick list the past few weeks are convalescing. At the morning service on next Sunday Elder Lewis C. Sheafe, pastor of the Free Seventh Day Adventist Church, will preach. Elder Sheafe has recently returned from an extended trip through the South and East, where he conducted successful Evangelistic meetings. He will bring to us a live message.

Driver filled his pulpit Sunday a. m., and preached from the announced subject "The defeated plot and successful defense from the life and trial of St. Paul." It was one of the greatest and most inspiraional sermons that the Pastor has delivered for some time. The large and happy congregation were held spellbound during the entire hour of the sermon, and at the close it seemed as if the Lord himself came into our midst and filled the house with great joy.

It, indeed, was a blessed service. We followed pastor Driver over to Rev. Red's Sunday afternoon only to have another heavenly feast. Rev. Red instructed pastor Driver to preach a whole gospel and do it fearlessly. So the pastor came forward with his usual smile and fixed mind and gave us a message from the subject, "Loose the Man." After reading a part of the 15th chapter of St. John and showing some striking points on the vine and the branches, proceeded to his subject, and having in the pulpit Revs. Rossier and Foster, he found it an easy matter to convince the people of how they needed to be loosed, for both of the ministers, as also Rev.

Georgia had been redeemed from the clutches of the Demon Run. In 1913, after eight years of "prohibition," the State, county and municipal governments of Georgia were deriving an annual income of $750,000 from a tax on saloons. This taxing of an illegal industry resulted in a scandal and there was recently enacted another prohibitory law designed to make the original prohibition law prohibit. That of itself is conclusive proof that prohibition in Georgia has been a failure. But under this new law, each adult male is permitted to import 6 gallons of whiskey, 12 gallons of wine and 72 gallons of beer annually, or 90 gallons of liquors of all kinds —67,51 gallons more per capita than for the United States. This allows the male adults of the State 3,723,696 gallons of whiskey, 7,447,392 gallons of wine and 44,684,352 gallons of beer every year. Under the circumstances it may be questioned whether prohibition in Georgia has proved a blessing worth singing about! RIVERS OF LIQUOR Prohibition in the South in class legislation, aimed primarily at the negroes. Of late it has taken on a religious aspect; and as the agricultural South is strongly religion, prohibition has become a hall mark of church standing. But there is no more connection between prohibition and abstinence in the South than elsewhere. In June, 1911, the Interstate Commerce Commission made a report stating that more than 6,000,000 gallons of whisky is annually shipped into the South by mail order houses alone. MOONSHINERS PARADISE Most States make liberal allowances as to liquor shipments for personal use. Each citizen is entitled by law to receive liquors as follows: Alibama—one gal distilled or four gals, vinous or ten gals, malt liquors in a period of four weeks; Mississippi, one gal distilled or one keg beer; North Carolina, one quart distilled, vinous or malt within a period of two weeks; South Carolina, one gal distilled; vinous or malt liquors in any calendar month; Tennessee, one gal, intoxicating liquors. These legal dispensations are merely a part of the general prohibition farce. The well-to-do white man of the South gets all the liquor he wants. The negroes and the pouer whites have their blind tigers, and are efficiently served by bootleggers who peddle moonshine whiskey. So unrep- No matter how carefully you search the records of prohibition states, you will not be able to find in any of them any promise for better things in California.

MADAM C. J. WALKER President of the Matam C. J. Walker Mfg. Co., and the Lelia College, 640 North West Street, Indianapolis, Ind. ours are moonshiners in certain sections they have regular automobile routes. Illicit distilling has increased in the South in strict ratio to the growth of prohibition. Internal Revenue reports show that from 1908 to 1914 inclusive the number of moonshine stills seized jumped from 1130 to 2677. All but nine of these were in Southern States. Against the negroes prohibition operates to some extent, but in many sections it has resulted in a worse evil. Dr. Lucius P. Brown, State Pure Food and Drug Inspector of Tennessee, said, a little over a year ago, that there were 22,500 persons in that State suffering from the drug habit and that $540,000 was spent yearly in Tennessee for drugs. It is notorious throughout the South that the drug habit has spread with frightful rapidity among the negroes wherever stringent prohibition laws have been enforced. MORE HARM THAN GOOD Nowhere in the country is prohibition such a failure and so great a morbidity as in the South. From the standpoint of practical morality it must be adjudged a great evil. It has resulted in serious economic ill and has fostered a contempt for law enforcement that has brought reproach upon the entire section. Prohibition in Dixie Land is a mere fetchish which has done vastly more harm than good both to the State and to the individual. CALIFORNIA PROSPERITY LEAGUE 909 L N.

Gilbert, A. M. D. D., of Augusta, Ga., who is the Secretary of African missions of the C. M. E. Church, spoke on his trip into the heart of Africa and gave a thrilling description of the experiences he had with the people of the dark continent, Dr. Gilbert is a fluent speaker and held the congregation spellbound for an hour. The choir rendered a very high class concert on Sunday night, to a packed house. The monthly concerts of the choir are looked forward to with a great deal of pleasure by the members and friends of the church. Much credit is due the chorister and organist for the high class programs which are rendered every month by the choir. The Church is taking on new life in every department and every one is working to improve and build up our Zion. A "pew" rally will be held on the second Sunday in December, at which we hope to raise the amount necessary to install the pews in the chapel. The various boards are all busy at work and the church assembles a bro-hive in which there are very few drowsen. The public is invited to worship with us at all services.

ADVERTISING RATES, 30c per mch FOR PRESIDENT Charles Evans Hughes of New York FOR VICE-PRESIDENT Charles Warren Fairbanks of Indiana FOR UNITED STATES SENATOR HIRAM W. JOHNSON Congressman from the 9th Congressional District C. H. RANDALL Congressman from 10th Congressional District HENRY Z. OSBORNE For Senator from the 29th District, HENRY H. LYONS For Assemblyman 74th District FRANK H. MOUSER For Assemblyman 64th District HARRY LYONS Only eleven more day until the triumphant election of Hughes and Fairbanks and a Republican Congress. Judge McDonald continues to gain votes for himesli in his campaign for the superior court, and we continue to urge for him a strong support. Anybody in California who can discern any prosperity is cordially asked to call at this office and receive the reward offered for the same. This is too great a government to be rated as a Jim Crow government, and a president who permits and acquiesces in the same is not the sort of man for its chief. The black phalanx is doing yeoman service in the debatable states of the middle west and they are lining up to the man to drive Wilson and retrogression from the White House. Whatever might be the ultimate outcome of the Broady and White case they can never find fault with their support of the best citizens of this community in their efforts to suppress lawlessness. Let it be known that when you hear the people talking about the Union Labor vote, that that vote has never been for the Republican Party. Uncle Samnel Gompers and his labor cohorts have always lined up with the Democratic Party. Senator Henry H. Lyons has and is rendering yeoman service for the success of the Republican ticket in the pending campaign. The Senator is one of the strong forces that has the happy faculty of making and retaining the friendship of the people of all classes to the utmost. Frank H. Mouser for the assembly from the 74th District has no opposition except a Socialist. We are glad of this. Mr. Mouser is one of the best friends of the race and with such men as Mr. Mouser going to the front in the political world there is always a chance for our people to gain recognition. Judge Gavin Craig, present judge of the Superior Court, is a man of whom the Eagle is always proud to mention and faithfully support. He is a man who is with the people, he seeks to help to lift up, he has those qualities that makes an ideal judge and he is a man whom we feel complimented in giving our unstinted support. A Negro sheet in this city brazenly carries a great big advertisement for Wilson. Now the Eagle is broad, we run a newspaper not on sentiment but we have a principle that will never allow us for a mess of pottage to sell our birthright to the extent that we could in a Negro paper advertise the worst enemy to the race that has ever occupied the presidential chair. CAPTAIN OSBORNE FOR CONGRESS Capt. Henry Z. Osborne for Congress from the 10th District will receive the united support of all the people. The captain is a staunch Republican and will care for the inferences of this district in the lower house to the satisfaction of his constituents. He will be a worthy successor indeed to Gov. Stephens. Capt. Osborne is not a candidate for the short term and is supporting for that position H. Skaule Beadett. To vote for him you must write his name in blank space provided on the ballot. THE TROOPER OF COMPANY K The above moving picture made its first appearance at the Angelus Theater last Saturday, running there until Wednesday night, and all who had the good fortune to see it promoted it grand. The Eagle staff was the guests of Manager Smith, of the Lincoln Motion Picture Company, and we want to say that this company should have the united support, particularly of our people, all over the nation, as they have had the nerve and grit to go to the front in this line of effort, and have now produced for the public one of the best moving picture plays ever flashed on the screen, and the same was conceived by a Negro in the person of Noble M. Johnson, put in execution by him and financed by this company. "The Trooper of Company K" is a sto- ry of a children go away out of fellow, who could make no headway at anything. He finally joined the Army and was assigned to Company K of the famous Tenth Cavalry. This brought him to the battle of Carrizal, where he made good with a vengeance, and was a hero. The scenes are excellent, showing in a realistic manner the famous stand of the Black Troopers at Carrizal, the Caranza soldiers, and a marvelous battle scene. The Lincoln Picture Company is to be congratulated upon the success of this picture and is entitled to a strong support. The above write-up, by error, was left out in our last issue, for which we are sorry, but we certainly want to go on record as strong boosters for the Lincoln Moving Picture Company and the "Trooper of Co. K." When you Vote for Amendments 1 and 2 Vote for John C. Bell THE ONLY DRY CANDIDATE For the ASSEMBLY 64th District For Congress 10th District—Long Term Henry Z.

Our own people who vote for him are certainly voting for a friend and not for a man weo will not recognize them after election. 1. During the past 4 years he has actually saved to the taxpayers of Los Angeles more than $500,000 notably in the 1015 Committee, the County Farm, the Unemployed Camp and other enterprises. 2. Suggested and supervised the establishment of the Unemployed Camp and hopes to make it permanent, thus largely solving the unemployed problem. 3.

First-Class Meals at All Hours SAN Sunday, October 22, 1916, was celebrated at Mt. Zion Baptist church that being the 21st anniversary of naid church. The celebration commenced in the Sunday school at 9:30 in the morning. The Sunday school was well attended, and the lesson was interestingly conducted by the most efficient president, Wm. Reynolds, of the Western Baptist Sunday School Convention, who also gave the Sunday school an excellent talk and outlined the work that he would like to have them carry out for this Conventional year. After the dismissal of the Sunday school, 11 o'clock services were immediately resumed. Singing by the choir, invocation by Deacon J. W. Gray, after which a most excellent sermon was delivered by the pastor, Rev. C. Williams. His subject: "Will a Man Rob God?" Malachi 3:8. He told us in so many different ways in which we really rob God. A collection was then taken, and the congregation, members and visitors likewise were cordially invited to the hospitable table at the parsonage, which was laden down with every thing good to eat. There really seemed to be no end to the chicken and dumplings. About thirty persons were served and every one went away rejoicing at which they and received. The serving committee which numbered about seven, spared no pains in making every one welcome, and tried to', accommodate them in every way possible. At two o'clock, sharp, the Old Patriarchs, who were in the organization of the church, conducted one hour of devotional services, led by Sister S. Freeman and Sister Nichols. The meeting was interesting and spiritual in every way to, all of those who truly know the Lord. The history of the organization of the church was also told in this meeting by Sister S. Freeman, who related how Mt. Zion had come up through hard trials and tribulations, but by leaning on the arms of Jesus, and trusting in His Word, the old church has moved along, and is steadily ad rapidly going on to victory. Cordial invitations were extended to both churches to participate in this grand rally, namely: First Street Baptist, which was represented by members, but at three o'clock, the most noble Methodist pastor, Rev Guy, and his co-workers, together with his whole choir, organist and choristers, came forward and lined up in the great battle—not behind, but in front. Rev F. W. Williams, of Long Beach, was introduced, and filled in the time for ten minutes, which was enjoyed by all. Then the melodious choir of the A. M. E. church sang a selection, every note of which was highly enjoyed by those present. Rev Guy was then introduced as the speaker for the afternoon. He took hold just as earnestly as a Baptist minister would have done, and took his text from Isaiah 40:21: "But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run and not be weary and they shall walk and not faint." There were so many beautiful things said in his discourse that it was why the whole city was not present to get their part of the gospel and gain strength in serving the Lord. Immediately after the sermon, the choir sang the subject of the sermon which had been preached, in the very same words: "They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; shall mount up with wings as eagle; shall run and not be weary; etc." A collection was then taken up. Benediction by Rev Guy. At 6:30 sharp, the B. Y. P. U. was called to order by Mrs. C. E. Norwood. The leson was read and a most excellent program was rendered, consisting of recitations, papers, quartettes and trios by the young people of the Union. Every one present enjoyed the beautiful program rendered by the young people, which they always take pleasure in doing. At 7:15 the president of the Western Baptist Sunday School Convention, Wm. Reynolds: was introduced to the Union. By request, he was asked to have the Union sing "Revive Us Again," which was rendered with much enthusiasm, the young people singing the chorus alternately, after which the president sang a beautiful solo, subject: "Keep Sweet." Then the president of the Western Baptist Sunday School Convention talked to the B. Y. P. U. in behalf of the president of the Western Baptist B. Y. P. U. Convention. Many good things were said to the Union, and if they were also hold of some of the plans the Union was expected to carry out in this conventional year. He also stalled that we had the largest B. Y. P. U. of young people in Southern California, and that we should strive to hold them by giving them something to do and whenever the young people do wrong, not to drive them from us by scolding and telling them that this or that is wrong, and not offer them something good to replace the thing that we tell them is wrong. Amen! The B. Y. P. U. adjourned at 7:30, and the evening services were commenced. The their song a selection, led by Bro. Wm. Reynolds, of Pasadena. Invocation was offered by Sister G. W. Woodby. Rev. F. W. Williams of Long Beach, was next introduced as the speaker of the evening. Rev. Williams began by saying he did not see much like preaching, as he had not pulled off his shoes since the night before, as he was riding all night, coming to San Diego, and was running all day trying to keep up with the people of San Diego. Mrs. Rev. C. Williams sang a beautiful solo just before Rev. Williams, of Long Beach, announced his text, which was found in Mark 16:15:18: "Go ye into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not, shall be damned." The sermon was immensely enjoyed by all. As it was all gospel that could not be denied. The collection for the day was $35.00. Rev. C. Williams announced that the church was now 21 years old, full grown, just started out to do real work for the Master. We heartily thank each and every one who came out and assisted us in any way, whether little or much. For God will bless the cheerful giver. Each auxiliary of the church also gave $1.00 to the rally, namely: Missionary Society, Carnatooo Clun, Sunday school and B. Y. P. U. Rev. C. Williams, the pastor of the church, left not a stone unturned to make this rally a success, and it certainly was a success in every feature. May God bless the work in Mt. Zion. Mr. Chas. Reed, of Imperial Valley, is now in San Diego, stopping with Rev, and Mrs. C. Williams. He will attend night school while here. The Hard Times Social given at Mr. Mulholland's residence last Tuesday evening by the young people of the B. Y. P. U., was a grand success. Miss Annie Mulholland, president of the B. Y. P. U., is expected back from Ventura this week. Mr. Wm, Reynolds, of Pasadena, president of the Western Baptist Sunday School Convention, spent Saturday night and Sunday in San Diego. This being his first trip he was very much impressed with the place. He said that he had enjoyed every minute of the time while here. He was met at the station at 6:30 by a committee, which escorted him to the Eagle office, where he had a nice little chat with Mr. M. T. Laws, of the Eagle, and from there he was taken to the Exposition grounds, the beauty spot of San Diego. After listening to Tommasinos' Royal Italian Band, and also to the Rosseau musicians, he was taken to see the many species of animals at the Zoo, and on the return trip up the Isthmus was taken through the Crazy House. Mr. Reynolds enjoyed it all. He then was taken out on 30th Street to the home of Sister and Brothed S. Freeman, where he had a most joyous night's rest, and on Sunday he spent the day at the Mt. Zion Baptist church, was taken out in the afternoon to view the beautiful city of San Diego by Brother and Sister M. A. Hayden, in their five-seated automobile. Rev. F. W. Williams, of Long Beach, and Mrs. C. E. Norwood and daughter, Dorothy, were also participants. Mr. Reynolds, after the evening service, was treated to all the ice cream he could eat, and then went to take the train for Pasadena, which left at 2 o'clock Monday morning. The Sunday school and B. Y. P. U. gave Mr. Reynolds $6.00 Rev. P. E. Robinson, who has been working at the Santa Fe station for some time, and who has won the confidence and esteem of his employers, and also of many, many friends in San Diego, left Tuesday for Stockton, where he has been transferred as chief red cap at the depot Rev. Robinson is also thinking of going back into the ministry. The Eagle reporter was in the midst of fire last Saturday at the Panama-California International Exposition when the 21st Regiment in its daring charge captured the Painted Desert. Arrows and shells were fallin gon every side, when the band struck up the rag time tune near the stockade. Thousands stood spell-bound as the 21st came from the canyon, falling and firing under command and never ceased firing until they had scaled t ewalls of the Painted Desert. The first intimation the Indians had of the impending attack was when the 21st infantry band broke forth. They were nearly all raging on the plaza of their pueblo, when a youngster, too young to dance, brought word that a column of pale-faced soldiers were approaching. Brandishing his war club, Big Chief Knöck-em-stif Brown, who in times of peace, is manager of the Painted Desert, called on his duky followers to take to the walls and defend their homes and families. The command was obeyed with alacrity. Soon painted and feathered warriors swarmed the walls of the pueblo and the adobe village fairly bristled with rifles and bows and arrows. Even though it was the greatest sham battle in the history of the Panama-California International Exposition, there was a lesson THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE Ever Done for YOU!!

A RESUME OF THE POLITICAL SITUATION IN THIS BAILIWICK As the time draws nigh for the election, which occurs on Tuesday, Nov. 7, the interest in the result becomes daily more acute, hence a resume at this time, based on almost any reasonable foundation, cannot help but interest the rank and file of the voting population of this section. You will find many doubting Thomases who will say that it looks close and "I am afraid of this or that," but as a matter of fact, it is the same old line-up nationally as has obtained in other elections except four years ago. Of course we have the rarebacks, the sore-heads, etc., but in this election the people will decide the issues, and not the sore-heads or the disgruntled, therefore there is no question that Hughes and Fairbanks will carry this election by an old-time Republican majority. The colored vote, as of yore, is loyal to the core. We of course might have a Benedict Arnold or a Judas who for the nimble dollar would even support old Vardaman, Jeff Davis, or Ben Tillman, but ninety-nine and nine tents per cent will, in a solid phalaxn, march to the polls on Nov. 7 and deliver to Hughes and Fairbanks a splendid contribution of 55,000 votes to swell their majority in California. For U. S. Senator Governor Hiram Johnson, the militant leader of the masses, will also be triumphantly elected along with the Republican electors. They have long since turned a deaf ear to the force that would cast odium upon a man who has always stood for the inherent principles of Republicanism. They know that he is not only for those principles, but stands for the interests and rights of all of the plain, common, every-day people, and he, too, will receive a magnificent support at the hands of the black phalaax. For Congress, 10th District For Congress, four Distri Captain H. Z. Osborne, the old Republican war horse, will receive a united support and will be triumphantly elected for the long term. The colored voters evince a special interest in Captain Osborne's success, as he has always been and always will be their champion and advocate. The 9th District C. H. Randall has the Republican nomination from this district, and having fairly won the same, the Republicans will rally to his support. There is no time to wabble around in the support of any independent in this crucial period of our country. The colored voters, to a man, in this district, will work and vote for Randall. They appreciate his stand in Congress against the Democratic fire-eaters, who sought to enact Jim Crow legislation in the District of Columbia, hence they are strong for Randall. For All Republican Congressmen As in the 9th and 10th Districts, all over the State a united support for the Republican nominees and you cannot go wrong. The same applies to the legislative tickets in the various senatorial and legislative districts. Locally and Non-Partisan The candidates for Supervisor, District Attorney, Judges of the Superior Court, are all non-partisan, and it is a free-for-all race. The Eagle has been an open forum and such as cared for the use of our columns have had a fair and square opportunity to acquaint the people with such matters as they might care to, and from that you could draw your own conclusions. Craig and MacDonald for Judges We have, however, rendered our support to Judge Craig for re-election to the Superior bench, and to Judge W. R. MacDonald for election. These two men, to our minds, are our ideals and we cannot too highly commend them to the consideration of our many readers. For District Attorney The contest for District Attorney of this county is assuming gigantic proportions and the strength developed by Captain Helms since the primary is admitted on all hands to be extraordinary. This is probably due to the fact that while the Woolwine forces have been marking time the Helms forces have been marking double-quick time. As far as the colored vote is concerned, it is divided, and while Woolwine, in the primaries, had the best of it by long odds, it seems at this time to be slipping rapidly to Helma. It is said, however, that the Woolwine forces will at once inaugurate a vigorous campaign and make an effort to regain lost ground. At any rate, it is a warm fight and for the next ten days watch the fur fly. For Supervisor The fight for Supervisor in the Second District is a hot fight. The forces in this district are also divided, and Mark G. Jones, who was the prime favorite at the primaries has lost much ground, and Norton stock as a result has risen. Whether the Jones forces will regain their lost ground is to be seen. Many resent the intrusion of interlopers, and many others charge good, bad and indifferent. This fight also promises to be a hummer. The Eagle, as yet, has taken no side in these contests for one side or the other. We have so far been content to publish each side, and sometimes to comment thereon, but with no idea of taking sides for either one or the other in this non-partisan contest. But watch next week's issue of the Eagle. We may have some dope that will solve the problem. CORNER STONE CHRIST'S TEMPLE The New Gospel Tabernacle at Pasadena Will Be Laid Tomorow, Sunday Afternoon at 2:30 P. M. with Public Ceremony row, Sunday Afternoon at 2:30 P. M., with Public Ceremony. After a temporary delay the corner stone for the new Gospel Tabernacle in Pasadena, to be known as "Christ's Temple," the church of humanity and the old time gospel will be laid with much pomp and ceremony at their new location. South Raymond avenue between East Bellevue Drive and Center streets, at 2:30 o'clock tomorrow, Sunday. New location "was formerly the beautiful Central Nursery, and is one of the best locations in the city, easily reached by all cars, local and from Los Angeles, in this Dr. J. Gordon McPherson, who is widely known as a tireless worker, has scored a signal triumph and the new work bids, to be a great success and has already attracted nation wide interest. The service for Sunday promises to be of unusual interest, Dr. J. Gordon McPherson will preach the words of Jesus, "Upon this rock corner stone sermon, using these I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." Metropolitan choir has been invited to sing. Pastors of Los Angeles and surrounding towns are united to come and take part in the ceremonies. The new organization has one of the largest mixed congregations of the best colored and white people in the Far West, all persons coming from out of town points should take the short line to Pasadena and get off at Bellevue Drive. This promises to be one of the greatest afternoon services you ever witnessed and everyone is cordially invited to join in the cornerstone laying ceremonies for the new Gospel Tabernacle. NOTICE Hallowe'en Masque Social, to be given by Golden State Juvenile Ancient United Knights and Daughters of Africa, at the residence of Mrs. James Goodwin, 1378 Newton street, Saturday afternoon, Oct. 28. There will be two prizes given. Refreshments served. Admission free, all welcome. WILBUR GOODWIN, P. P. RUTH ERVIN, See. BAKERSFIELD By Mrs. Pearl Lowery Winters Rev. and Mrs. Donahue, the new pastor and wife, arrived in the city Monday to take charge of the First A. M. E. church. Sunday morning Rev. Donahue preached to a crowded house and his hearers seemed pleased with his first effort. Mrs. Donahue also made a beautiful talk to the Sunday school. Mrs. Frank Washington united with the church. The choir was at its best Sunday at the First A. M. E. church. Mrs. Truett entertained last Friday and Saturday honoring her daughter. On Friday the young people were entertained and on Saturday the old. The color scheme was pink, and green, and at each plate was a beautiful hand painted card. Rev. and Mrs. W. M. Dickerson, pastor and wife of the Baptist church are doing good work in this city. Mrs. Jones, mother of Mrs. A. Houston is spending the winter with her daughter. The chance for rebuttal testimony asked for by the confessed law breakers, was given them and with a full week to go, even this galaxy of self-confessed law breakers could not add anything to help them in their effort to oust Broady and White from their jobs. Rebutt a Lamentable Failure To rebutt the testimony offered at the defense of the officers they brought forth themselves again and their testimony was to break down the testimony of Isador Baptiste and Geo. Henderson. Insofar as Baptiste was concerned, they made his testimony stronger, his story was unshaken. They brought another man, whose place of business had been raided time and again by Broady and White, to rebutt Geo. Henderson. They also brought Geo. W. Brown forth, and what did they do that for? He was a strong witness for the police officers. And then came the Fighting Parson, J. Gordon McPherson. The doctor has been a prime favorite with this element, and of course no surprise was evident in seeing him line up with these forces. His testimony was about Nora Palmer and was a contradiction of the facts as testified by our managing editor on last Thursday, with the two statements, no doubt the commission will judge which is true and which is false. This is the case and to those who have followed it, there is but one conclusion, and that is that it is a most disingenious frame-up, not a thing clever about it, but just a coarse try. And we do not believe that officers should be harassed by such circumstances as these. If a man has charges such as these to make, let them be substantiated by at least someone who is not a partner in crime, or who has no police record. It was humorous indeed to see the City Prosecutor wabble in placing a confessed law breaker, bribe given and with a notorious police record, as a character witness for the Colored people. We have no doubt but that justice will prevail and that the commission will dismiss the charges and that these men will be commended for their activity in suppressing vice and that they will be kept on the job until such time as their reward will be to go up higher for service well done. The law-abiding element of this city have stood by the officers in their fight against lawlessness, and they have not for one moment doubted their innocence, and since the raw attempt of a frame-up by the Chinese crooks and confessed Negro law breakers has lamentably failed, they have a renewed confidence in them, and shall ever remain in their loyalty of law and order. POLITICAL DRIET It is an old saying that politics make queer bedfellows. As an example: the Woolwine and Helm fight for the District Attorneyship Both camps have undesirables and it is hard to keep them out of the public eye and the newspapers. No one is responsible for them being in the fight except the conditions which are the outgrowth of securing votes. Attorney Macheth, least of all, is responsible for these conditions. He has always stood for civic decency and sobriety, and though he is in Arizona as the attorney of a race mining company of this city, he will return in time to put the finishing touches on the National and State fight for the Republican party. THE ONLY DRY CANDIDATE John C. Bell, whose candidacy for Assemblyman from the 64th District is announced in another column is appealing to the voters for their support on the issue of California Dry and its many benefits. Being the only dry candidate he is receiving enthusiastic support from the dry voters of all political parties and his many friends predict his easy election. Mr. Bell is a prominent manufacturer in the city and knows the needs of the city and state and while advocating all legitimate enterprises, he nevertheless, puts the boy and girl above the dollar. Well, well, well! The East has at last realized that athletes can be developed in the "wet West" as well. If not more so, than in their own New England country. An eastern paper recently published an article in which they really admitted that the Los Angeles White Sorx was one of the fastest semi-pro teams in the country, and I think that is a western team. We might also mention for their benefit that Howard Drew, the world's greatest sprinter, is a product of our own little Angel(?) City. I'll admit that I'm good at drawing opinions, and figuring out things, but I'll also admit that I haven't been able to figure out why the Sorx and Echo Park don't meet in the ill-bait game. Ask Dad. He knows, but he won't tell. "Some class! " "That's got 'im," and a few more such phrases were heard very frequently out at Jeerson last week, and we learned that Cecil "Ladies' Man" Hopper was the center of these favorite remarks. Oh, no; he wasn't wearing a full-dress suit to a football game this time, but he has introduced the fad of red stock ties. Memories Base ball, low prices, pocket change and WILSON. ASK DAD WHY— C. H. wears such loud stock ties. T. B. says walking is good exercise. T. O. cut C. H.'s trousers. J. B. is a Jefferson visitor so often. J. R. took I. G's silk handkerchief. Question: My best bean said to me: "Everybody loves mathematics: that's why I am in love with you." Can you tell what he means? Answer: I should think he compared you with mathematics because he couldn't figure you out. to be learned from the big Indian chief. San Diego citizens are loyal to race competitors and talent, as was demonstrated at the Stadium last Sunday and also at the Savoy Theatre this week. Speaking of the ball game, when the White Sox met the Hull team at one of the finest stadiums on the Coast, they played to the largest crowd that ever attended a ball game. There were approximately 1500 people of the race and about four times as many of the others. The game made Rube Foster's games look as amateurs. Men and women came out as if they were going to a fashion show. There were no onors to give any particular player, as the team played a scientific game—only three errors, but the veteran Mooney should be mentioned for his diamond covering and good work. Mooney had three men on base in the sixth inning, none out, when he tightened up and fanned three straights. Mr. Lony Goodman deserves credit for perfecting such a team on the Coast. Umpire Rockenfield's decisions were entirely satisfactory. WE KNOW THEM NOW The Black and Tan Orchestra, of San Diego, assisted by Mr. Eugene Edwards, and twelve couple of home talent, trumpeted at the Savoy Theatre the past week in the "Walking the Dawg" Contest. In addition to their salary, there was a prize given after each performance. The dancing was judged by the audience, which created calousy in the troop. That made the performance more interesting. They were choosing and exchanging partners trying to win the first prize, but Miss Theodore Lloyd was the most sought after of them all. She could win with any partner, but Miss Sadie Ridley, after coping the first prize on the opening performance, would always give the winning couple a hard battle, in which each couple captured a prize during the week. Each couple filled their part of the performance to a unit, notwithstanding the fact that there were no rehearsals. They went on the stage and faced a crowded house at each performance, and did credit to themselves, and gained fame, from a theatrical standpoint. Had Tom Keene, John McCullough, Lawrence Barrett, Billy Kersand, Williams and these amateurs have just received, without any influence or boosting, they would have been famous long before their names were ever mentioned by great writers.

The fall was well filled with the aristocrats of the city in order to hear the elocutionist from Oakland. Her selections were of the best and the audience was laughing and clapping so much that the famed speaker had to stop amid her best passages and waist for silence, but she was not put out, nor did she show any sign of displeasure at being interrupted as often as she was. Her rendition of the piece entitled: "Asleep at the Switch," caused the audience a great deal of merriment, as well as the "Turning of the Baby." Mrs. Moultery's singing was a treat that was listened to with a great deal of pleasure. Why, it was so soft and sweet that you could have heard a pin fall. She received so many encores that one could hardly know which one of the two ladies was giving the entertainment. When Mme. Davis recited "Mandy," the audience went wild, for it was so humorous. But when she played the piano and recited at the same time, as a gentleman said, it was too good to tell about. "Those Wedding Bells Shall Not Ring Tonight" was played and sang to perfection, although the piano was a little out of whack and should have been looked after before the recital. So, upon the whole, the Recital was a success from beginning to end. And great credit is due Lillian Jeter-Davis and Mrs. Moultry and Mrs. S. Cleveland, high-priestess. Many thanks to the Knights and Daughters of Tabor. All we have to say is that Mme. Davis stands with a rich, full and well modulated voice, and can capture any audience after her first recitation. A lady came into The Eagle office on a busy day and found the editor and reporter busy segregating news for their many readers, and their minds were busy and did not notice when she came in and she finally spoke and said: "What is the matter? Are you on the speaking list today?" We informed her that we were just an eagle, but if she caught us, we always spoke, as the Eagle speaks the world over. There was a meeting of the Forum last Sunday, October 22nd, and the committees were appointed. Next meeting, October 29th. Mr. W. E. Cleveland, messenger at the U. S. National bank, reports that the bank will add two stories to their bank building, and says that the trouble with most of our people is that inf they cannot smart with $100 or more to their credit, they feel embarrassed to begin with a small account. He can be found at the bank at almost all banking hours where he will be led to introduce MAN assembly, 33rd the election of attorney, a Friedman. I will legislate of individ- ole represent- that the city is rapidly filling up with strangers. We are glad to see so many of the Race horse owners of the Race, and employed on the other side as well as so many refined and wealthy men who came to see and enjoy the sport of the kings. Mr. M. T. Laws and Mr. W. E. Cleveland were initiated in the order of the Knights and Daughters of Tabor last Tuesday night. While left in the anti-room alone, Cleveland said to Laws, in a stuttering voice: "Are you afraid? I am not." But as Laws stood trembling, he observed that the hair had disappeared from Cleveland's head. Something heard of in San Diego. The stork arrived at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Melvin White, No. 2778 Broadway, last week and left a big bouncing boy, weight about eight pounds. Mother and baby doing bell. Mrs. Henderson, who has been visiting her sister, Mrs. Melvin White, has returned home. Mrs. G. Hodge called at the Eagle office, after an extended visit at Vallejo. From all appearances, the trip has benefited her wonderfully, and she said that she could not attend all the social functions to which she was invited. LUCKY COLE One of the most singular cases on the files of the police detective bureau was reported last week by Mr. Dan Cole, a porter employed at th U. S. Grant Hotel barber shop. While Mr. Cole danced a dreary walk in a Market Street dance hall, between Sixth and Seventh Streets, the night before, the detective's report has it, a ring set with five small diamonds and valued at $65, disappeared from his finger. Right after that particular dance, Mr Cole noticed that the ring was gone. He mentioned the loss to his dancing partner, and she assured him that she knew nothing at all about it Detectives interviewed several of his dancing partners, but when they had finished, the matter was as much a mystery as before they began. The discovery of the Diamond ring! It was picked up from the floor and pawned by someone who readily redeemed it, after finding the proper owner Many of the Santa Fe railroad porters called at the Eagle office and reported that Mr John Brooks, many years chef for the general manager, is confined at the Santa Fe hospital in Los Angeles. The migratory gents are coming to town now, but look first before you stop. The rockpile is in existence again this winter. A hint is sufficient. There are about thirty working there now Two young ladies sold that they went to the Canton restaurant and dined and the meal came to one dollar. One of the ladies paid for the meal and walked out. The other, not knowing, paid for the same meals again. After walking a short distance, discovered their error. On returning and asking for the difference to be refunded, they said that the Chilman refused to refund name and said that, they might have dropped it on the floor. Now, chilman, if this be true, why continue to make the Oriental rich?
