Negro Attorney VOLUME 30 Ne Makes M Add A GREAT DEMONSTRATION FOR MAYOR WOODMAN Thursday Night the Woodman Headquarters not large enough to Seat the Vast and Enthusiastic Voters. The Great Speech Made by Attorney Hugh E. Macbeth. The Mayor to be Elected at the Primaries. Never before in the political history of this city was there ever so much enthusiasm shown in a ratification meeting of any candidate for the position of Mayor, as was shown Thursday evening at the Woodman headquarters, 409 So. Hill street. Hon. Russ Avery presided in his usual excellent manner and there was not a hitch in the program. The thousands present represented the earnest people who intend that Los Angeles shall have a Mayor worthy her importance as the future metropolis of the Pacific coast. The Pacific coast, as one of the eloquent speaker said, is bound to become the commercial region of the whole country as the result of the present war. There were a number of very eloquent speakers, among them the very eloquent former assistant District Attorney Joseph Ford; Mrs. Beatty most eloquently presented from the womans' side the absolute necessity of continuing Frederic T. Woodman on the job of making a "greater Los Angeles." W. M. Bowen, a veteran in municipal government, and who at one time was president of the City Council, who among many other things worth pausing to think over spoke with authority when he said that in the short time Mr. Woodman had been Mayor he had actually accomplished more in a constructive way than any other mayor this city ever had. Lon Rector spoke for labor and he spoke as one whose heart was in his words. Mrs. Rufus Bowen received applause for hearty and at times witty speech. All of the speakers were generously applauded, but it was reserved for the last speaker, Attorney Macpest, to receive a perfect ovation at the conclusion of a short seven minute speech, which for force and compelling argument was not equalled by any speech made that night. Mr. Macbeth received throughout his plea to the higher intelligence, the patriotism and hopes for the future of this city, and his tribute to Mayor Woodman's demonstrated efficiency was greeted with marked approval. He had the single honor that few speakers receive at the conclusion of his oration, to have to arise and stay the term of applause by bowing again and again in acknowledgement of the great applause that was given him. Every Race man and woman present, and there was a considerable number of them, felt proud at the demonstrated ability of their representative on the platform, and Mr. Macbeth's stock as the recognized leader of his people in Southern California took a new impetus. A man of the Race who has the appreciative ear of the dominant Race is worth while in the great uplift-work to which Mr. Macbeth's whole heart is devoted. The Race have great cause also to be proud of the delightful singing furnished by the Union League Quartette, under the leadership of Mr. Overton. It was the consensus of opinion that this ```markdown ``` San Diego, San Francisco and Oakland LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, APRIL 14, 1917 THE TRIBUNE A TRUE FRIEND TO THE RACE Immediately following the publication in the Daily Times of what purported to be a direct wire from Greensboro, N. C., calculated to do great injury to the Colored American, the President, Hugh E. Macbeth, and National Representation, William E. Easton of the State Executive Conclave of the All American League of California addressed all of the daily papers of this city the following defense of Race loyalty: quartette furnishes the sweetest music furnished by any quartette white or Colored in the city. The meeting was a great success for Mayor Woodman. The astute leader and campaign manager, Vincent Geleicho, has no equal in Southern California, and the able men and women composing the committee, and above all things for the Colored Race who scored heavily. Now get busy and make the election of Frederic T. Woodman final in the primaries! Under caption "Plot to Incite Blacks Reported from the South," appears what purports to be by "direct wire—exclusive dispatch" from Greensboro, N. C., April 3rd, in the Daily Times of this city, the rawest piece of manufactured lie as ever appeared in any newspaper in the United States. This article states that the German government has agents in the South, promising the Blacks if they "rise against the whites and government," that the Kaiser "will then place them on a par with the whites." Not satisfied with his bold statement, it is further stated that "the citizens of Greensboro are laying their plans against the Black menace." How? "Responsible citizens about Greensboro have admitted that plans have already been laid to bring back to life the Ku Klux Klan." It is an infamous lie to charge that the American Negro could under any circumstances be prevailed on to be disloyal to the United States government. In his three hundred years residence in this country he has never been a rebel, a dynamiter or a traitor to American institutions. He has suffered, at times complainingly, but he has invariably submitted tamely to the rankest kind of injustice. As a figure in American life his condition is truly pathetic, never striking back, never conspiring to tear down, his ways have always been constructive. This dispatch was sent out with a purpose. For the last two years conditions have become so galling in certain portions of the South, that the Negro has been migrating to the Northwest in large numbers. In the South cotton is king, and the Negro makes him king. This migration from the South means a great loss to the owners of the "cotton patches," those vast plantations of the staple that mean prosperity to the wealthy planters. It is reasoned this must be stopped. Every Negro who prepares to leave these plantations is to be charged with a conspiracy to go somewheres North to mobilize for the Germans. By intimidation and ruthless murder it is planned to keep their cheaply paid labor at home. This "exclusive dispatch" is to provide an excuse for premeditated murders. It is an endeavor to provide an alibi. It is a shameless attitude of self-defense, when no defense is necessary. It is calculated that a miscalled "Negro uprising" will keep the chivalric tarheelians so busy at home potting unarmed and inoffensive Negroes they will not have time to enlist and go gunning for Germans. That dispatch is founded on deliberate lies, no German spies are approaching Negroes. They are too busy approaching white men, North and South. The Negro's very blackness is his best armor, for beneath a black skin there never was known to have been the heart of a black traitor and all the world knows this. ICE CREAM FACTORY TO BE ESTABLISHED IN LOS ANGELES Business enterprises owned and operated by members of the Race are becoming more diversified every day. Once upon a time the Colored citizens were accused of staying in exactly the same line, but we are proud to state that our people are branching out into every available avenue of business. With the bare exception of the Morning Tribune the attention called to an effort to great disaster to the Race throughout the nation by claiming good and sufficient reasons to question the loyalty of the Race, never before questioned in all of its history, was ignored by all of the city papers. The Tribune that at all times has been the consistent friend of the Race again proved equal to the occasion and published in its issue of April 10th the following beautiful tribute to the Colored American: MR. E. P. MARSHALL 208 N. Savannah St. We have today grocery and dry goods stores, cafes, barber shops, hair dressing parlors, meat markets, shoe stores, hotels, laundries and apothecaries. Now we are to have an ice cream factory owned and operated by Mr. E. P. Marshall of 208 N. Savannah street. Mr. Marshall was for 12 years in the ice cream business in Chicago and so successful was he as an ice cream maker that his fame was sung not only in Chica- "Until the nation shall have steadied itself and settled down to the mighty task it confronts, the sensation mongers will take license to give unrestrained rein to their activities. The truth about conditions is menacing enough without the gratuitous interventions of these gentry whose loose-hung tongues are babbling the weird tales their excited imaginations supply. Ephemeral as is the life of such injurious inventions, they are capable of working considerable evil. Some are so foolish that they carry their own contradictions. Witness the absurd tale that the German propagandists in the South are inciting Negroes in the tobacco and cotton fields against the United States government. go, but has also preceeded him into the West, and it is believed that he will build up the same reputation as an ice cream maker in Los Angeles that he enjoyed in Chicago, and that also he will receive the overwhelming support of his Race in this section. Already Mr. Marshall has his ice cream factory established at 208 N. Savannah, where he has the most modern machinery for ice cream making. M. California Eagle To the great masses of the voters of the city of Los Angeles there has been no announcement for their suffrage in the pending councilmanic race that has been received with the enthusiasm and unanimous accord as the fact that our popular Senator is in the race for a seat in the city council. That he will have hearty support from all classes of our citizens and will be triumphantly nominated and elected, goes without saying, no man in public life in this great city and state has a better record for real service on behalf of the great masses than Senator Lyons. His name among Splendid Easter programs were rendered at the churches Sunday. Perhaps in no other land or country where the flag of Christian civilization floats to the breeze was there a demonstration of whole-heartedness such as that displayed by the Los Angeles church goers. "If there is one quality to which the Negro rightly may lay claim, it is that of loyalty. Whatever other charge may be brought against the Black man, no sane person can accuse him of disloyalty to the nation or the flag. Each church, it seems, was transformed into a garden of roses and sweet voiced birds joined with the innumerable choirs as they chanted "He is not here but risen." "In a recent address delivered by Dr. Roscoe Conkling Simmons, himself a Negro of education, culture and refinement, speaking for his Race, he declared: "We have but one country and one flag—the flag that set us free. Its language is our only tongue, and no hyphen bridges or qualifies our loyalty. Today the nation faces danger from a foreign foe; treason stalks and skulks up and down our land; in dark councils intrigue is being hatched. I am a Republican, but a Wilson Republican. Woodrow Wilson is my leader. What he commands me to do I shall do. Where he commands me to go I shall go. If he calls me to the colors I shall not ask whether my colonel is Black or white. I shall be there to pick out no color except the white of the enemy's eye. Grievances I have against this people, against this government. Injustice to me there is, bad laws there are upon the statute books, but in this hour of peril I forget—and you must forget—all thoughts of self or Race, or creed, or politics or Color. That, boys, is loyalty." At the First A. M. E. church in a special Easter rally over $1,200 was raised. The First A. M. E. church choir under the direction of Prof. Bynum presented one of the most elaborate musical programs ever witnessed by the people in the city. At the Second Baptist church with Prof. H. D. Greer as director one of the grandest musical programs wound up the Sunday School children's Easter program under the direction of Supt. J. D. Groves. "When, during the Civil War, the South was drained of men capable of bearing arms going to the battlefields, they left their homes and wives and children in the custody of the very race whose slavery they fought to make perpetual. With what loyalty did the Negro respond to the unrequited trust that was committed to his care! Is it to be doubted that the free man is less worthy of confidence than was the slave? There is no class Prof. Greer's choir of 50 voices presented in cantata form the Crucifix. For nearly three-quarters of an hour the great audience was thrilled with this wonderful word picture in song. The vested choir at the Taber- them is a household word; they know him by his deeds and the people will rally to his support with a rare zeal and an undaunted enthusiasm and while the senator is absent attending his duties at Sacramento as a legislator, his many friends will not allow that as a handicap and are voluntarily doing yeoman service to acquaint all of the people with the fact that he is in the race and will roll up for him a record vote. The Eagle has no hesitancy in commending the candidacy of Senator Lyons for the council and when he takes his seat in that body in the future as in the past the great masses of the people, regardless of race, color or status in life, will always have a friend at court. nacle Baptist also presented a rare musical program and Wesley Chapel was up to its standard. FOR THE CITY COUNCIL Peter C. Phillips, who has so well served the people of his district in the Assembly for two terms, has at the solicitation of his many friends entered the race for a seat in the City Council, and is receiving a hearty support from all classes for that position. Mr. Phillips is in every sense a commoner and in this position he would at all times be at the service of the great masses of our citizens. He stands for the things in the conduct of the city government that the plain common every day people most need and desire. In the Assembly he has made an enviable record and has consistently worked and voted for the measures that stood for progress and has made an enviable record in that body. The Eagle has no hesitancy in commending the candidacy of Peter Phillips to the favorable consideration of our large family of readers, and while he is at his post of duty at Sacramento the people who really appreciate his service and who wish our City Council to be composed of men who stand squarely for the great common people can pay themselves no higher compliment than to work and vote for the nomination and election of Peter C. Phillips for the City Council What the Churches are Doing PAGE TWO WESLEY M. E. CHURCH 8th and San Julian Rev. A. P. Shaw, D.D., Pastor Easter was a great day at Wesley M. E. church. A goodly number came out to the early morning prayer and praise meeting, led by Brother Stout. At 10:30 a.m. the pastor baptized twelve converts and eight babies, and in the afternoon at six o'clock he baptized three converts by immersion. At 11 a.m. the pastor preached an Easter sermon on "Death's Conqueror." Four persons were converted and united with the church and four others joined by letter. The Easter cantata, "The King Immortal," was rendered by the Sunday school to an audience that taxed the seating capacity of the church, Sunday school room and galleries. The cantata was well rendered and brought hearty applause from the whole audience. The decorations were elaborate. Mr. Hubbs received much praise for his work in the decorations. This Sunday will be one of unusual interest. At 11 a.m. the pastor will preach on "What Shall the Negro Do and Expect in This Present War." Do not fail to hear it. At 2:30 p.m. the annual Sermon of the Pioneer Club will be preached by the pastor. At 4:30 the pastor will address the Forum on "Building a Race." (Requested.) The evening service will be in charge of the local preachers of Wesley and the city. Brother J. A. Warren will preside. Talks will be made by Rev. Majors, Brothers Adkins, Stout, Jones and Hall and others. Rev. J. W. Price, Pastor Easter Sunday was the greatest in the history of Ward. From 4 a.m. until the close of the day. Before 5 a.m. the pastor was delivering his Easter message which continued throughout the day. At the regular morning hour for the Sunday school a short review of the lesson and the young people's program was rendered. Among the very interesting features were the numbers rendered by the blind singer and his wife, Mr. J. W. O'Neil, who have been engaged to assist the choir in the future in their work. At the close of the day's work we had nine persons to unite with the church during the day. Services Sunday as usual; Sunday school, 9:30 a.m., Mrs. S. E. Mann, Supt.; Christian Endeavor, 6:30 p.m., Mrs. B. F. Bryant, president. Preaching at the morning hour, 11 a.m., and at 7:45 p.m. President Colored Campaign Committee of One Thousand. FIRST A. M. E. CHURCH NOTES Cor. 8th and Towne Rev. J. Logan Craw, Pastor The three big Easter services of last Sabbath were thoroughly enjoyed. The Easter message by the pastor at 11 o'clock was cheerfully received. The exercises at 3 o'clock by the Sunday school scholars were entertaining and uplifting, while the sacred program at evening by our own vested choir was a fitting climax to the day's services. There was one accession to the membership. This Sabbath was also designated "Rally Day." Through the sacrifice made by those who responded to this rally appeal there was one thousand two hundred and twenty-five dollars ($1225.84) and eighty-four cents in cash money laid on the tables during the three services. The rally is continued to Sunday, May 13th, the second Sunday in May, that other pledges may be paid and all others who desire may have this opportunity of sharing in the success of this noble effort. Pay your pledge or donation into the pastor at your first convenience, so that when our financial condition is announced the second Sunday in May, you too, will be properly accredited as a faithful helper and loyal member. The record is being made now. Do your duty. Third Quarterly Meeting services will be conducted Sunday at both services by Presiding Elder J. H. Wilson. Do not miss this communion day service. Quarterly conference on Tuesday night, April 17, at 8 p.m. You are welcome to all. FIRST A. M. E. ZION CHURCH Pico and Paloma Streets Easter Sunday was a big day at Zion. The altar and rostrum were beautifully decorated with palms, ferns, calla lilies and roses, also caged singing canaries. The designs and arrangement were unique. The song service was very impressive. The large outpouring of members and friends were favorably surprised at the enterprise displayed in the Easter decorations. The children of the church and Sunday school had Easter exercises Sunday evening under the leadership of Prof. J. C. Banks, Sunday school superintendent. Their training was emphasized in the rendition of their excellent program. The convocation at Fresno, California, under the leadership of Bishop L. W. Kyles of St. Louis, Mo., was a complete success. The Los Angeles Home and Foreign Missionary Society led all of the churches on the coast in mission aid. Mrs. Hattie Sykes is president and Mrs. M. Young is secretary. They are the recipients of much congratulation from all directions. Zion will baptize its new converts in the near future, date will be announced in church notices. The pastor's sermon was appropriate for the day. "The Resurrection of Christ." The life of Christ depicted as an example or pattern. All believers were admonished to follow in His steps. Next week, April 15, the pastor will talk on "Baptism—The Proper Way." At 8 p.m. his subject will be, "Account for Thy Stewardship." All seats free. All are welcome. Sunday School at 9:45. Classes for grown-ups. The people's church. You are invited. PHILLIPS CHAPEL C. M. E. CHURCH Easter was fittingly celebrated at this church on last Sunday. The day began with a service at sunrise and inspiring and spiritual services continued throughout the day. The pastor preached at the morning service from the subject "Christ the First Fruit." The sermon was very much enjoyed and at the close of the sermon several came forward for prayer. Revival services started at the morning service and will continue for two weeks. The preaching will be done by the pastors of the city and the public is invited to come and worship with us in these services. The Sunday school rendered their program in the afternoon to a very appreciative audience and at night the choir rendered a special Easter program. All the services were inspiring and helpful and the heads of the various departments are due unstinted praise for the manner in which Easter was observed. LINCOLN MEMORIAL CONGRE GATIONAL CHURCH Easter Sunday was fittingly and profitably observed throughout the day at this church. The pastor occupied the pulpit at the morning service, taking as his text. "And they said among themselves who shall roll us away the stone from the door of the pulchre?" Mark 16:3. At 3:00 oclock Rev. B. C. Robeson of the A. M. E. Zion church brought us a splendid message on: "He is not here; He is risen as He said." At the evening service the seating capacity of the church was taxed when the children of the Sunday school presented their excellent Easter exercises. The pre-Easter meetings were exceptionally helpful in creating a deeper spiritual awakening in the church. There were three who accepted Christ as their Saviour, and one accession by letter. the pastor who is spending this week at Catalina Island will be home for all the regular services on Sunday. April 5. Services as follows: Sunday school, 10:00 a. m.; preaching, 11:15 and 8:00 p. m.; Christian Endeavor, 7:00 p. m. A cordial welcome to all services. The services last Sunday were impressive and inspiring. The pastor and wife with a party of friends attended the great Easter service at Mt. Lowe and came with renewed vigor and inspiration to the morning service, where he edified the people as he spoke from the text, "That I might know Him and the power of His resurrection." At 7:30 p. m. the Sunday School, under the direction of Mrs. E. R. Johnson and Supt. Clarence James, presented a splendid Easter program to a crowded house. The church was beautifully decorated with the American flag and a profusion of spotless Easter lilies. On Thursday night the stewardesses will hold a social evening at the residence of Mrs. James on Holmes avenue. Next Sunday the pastor will speak in the morning and Rev. R. F. Jones will bring the evening message. All are welcome. MT. ZION BAPIST CHURCH Third and Traction Ave. Pastor, Rev. F. H. Davis The service for Sunday morning was very inspiring. The pastor spoke from the subject, "Divine Provision for Human Need." There were four people who joined the church, namely: Mrs. Wallers, Mr. White, Mr. Walter White, Jr., and Mr. Young. Sunday afternoon the Sunday School rendered their exercises. Sunday night at 8:00 the choir gave a sacred concert THE PEOPLE'S INDEPENDENT CHURCH OF CHRIST Easter Sunday at the Independent Church of Christ was one rounded day, filled with good things for body, soul and mind. The day's program started by the Sunday. School children's program, which was composed of about 15 excellent numbers, music, instrumental and vocal, dialogues and chorus. Mrs. George Beavers cannot be given too much praise for the excellent program as the children showed in every movement the thorough training they had received. In the afternoon about 3 o'clock after many had enjoyed, dinner in the basement of the church, the Knights Templars' annual sermon took place. The sermon was preached by Rev. Greggs and was one long to be remembered. Aside from the sermon all other parts of the program were inspiring, uplifting and enjoyed by all. In the evening the choir gave several pretty numbers, after which the pastor preached a short but masterly sermon. Eleven persons, connected themselves to the church during the THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE IMPROVE YOUR HAIR IF YOUR HAIR IS HARSH, KINKY, NAPPY AND SMARLS UP ALL OVER YOUR HEAD USE FORD'S HAIR POMADE PRICE 50 CENTS MAKES ONLY BY GENERATED OX MARROW OIL Chicago, Illinois FORD'S HAIR POMADE PRICE 50 CENTS MAKES ONLY BY GENERATED OX MARROW OIL Chicago, Illinois THE NATURAL OIL PRODUCT AND YOU WILL FIND A GREAT IMPROVEMENT.

At 9:45 the Sunday school canvassed the lesson in each class and was reviewed by Rev. J. M. Riddle. The S. S. is rallying for 25 new scholars by convention time. The brotherhood class launched out Sunday with 10 present out of an enclosure of 12 and more coming next Sunday. The class elected Bro. Wm. Reynolds as teacher The exercises by the children at 11 o'clock were very fine. Every number was splendid, and called forth much favorable comment. In the afternoon the men of the church met and elected officers for the strong men's club, that is to try and raise more money in the June rally than the women of the church. The contest has created quite a deal of interest, the women will meet on next Sunday afternoon to further their plans. Capt. Wm. Reynolds has been selected to lead the men and Mrs. Calmore to lead the women. The program committee, of which Prof. R. Coles is chairman, announces a splendid program and entertainment at Social Hall for Thursday evening, April 26, and they solicit the public to attend. The Rev. J. M. Riddle preached the evening service from the subject, "Resurrection." The choir was highly complimented for its rendition of the Easter anthems. On next Sunday the pastor, Rev. W. H. Hughes will preach both morning and evening and the choir which now has a full compliment, of all voices and will render good music at each service. The W. H. and F. M. S. will hold their regular meeting at 3 o'clock Sunday afternoon, having been postponed from last Sunday. RECORDS BROKEN AT A. M. E CHURCH The fifth and last Easter of the pastorate of Rev. and Mrs. W. W. S. Dyett in Pasadena eclipsed all others in every way. The morning was devoted to the children as in a short session of the Sunday school at 10 o'clock they were taught the Easter lesson by Rev. Bussey and at regular morning service they sang and recited the Easter story to a large audience of parents and friends. Over one hundred children joined in the service. At this time the rite of christening was administered to the infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Porter Ballard and the infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Gooden. The Sunday school at this Easter raised forty-four dollars for missions. At night the choir pleased an unusually large audience with an unusually excellent program. Besides the music of the choir, directed by Mrs. Dyett, readings by Mrs. Lillian Turner and Miss Ives Madison were enjoyed. Miss Marie Ford participated in the program accompanying Mr. Walter Dyett in a delightful violin number. The pastor in sincere terms voiced the opinion of the officers and members in complimenting the choir on the success of the excellent program, but especially upon the five years of faithful service of his pastorate. Sunday's collections were the source of wonder to both pastor and officers. Added to the collection of the Steward's Rally of Palm Sunday and the collection of the Building Debt Rally on the Sunday preceding, totaled $969, nearly one thousand dollars raised by a total active membership of less than 250. Quarterly meeting will be held on Sunday. The Lord's Supper will be served morning and evening. FRIENDSHIP BAPTIST CHURCH "The Risen Lord" was the subject chosen by Dr. Tillman to portray the suffering and final triumph of Christ at the morning service last Sabbath. Those in attendance were given a rare treat by the beautiful floral decoration, prettily arranged by Messrs. Smith, Evans and Williams. Mr. Macey and a few co-workers in the Los Angeles Day Nursery was present to make a few remarks concerning the work and to lift an offering. The evening service was given over to the members of the Sunday NEWHOME "I'll get it for my wife" NO OTHER LIKE IT. Purchase the "NEW HOME" and you will have a life asset at the price you pay.

It is well to let well enough alone. May Elect Woodman mayor, and get into the band wagon. It would be a good idea for our people to go up with a winner and not down and out with a loser. It is well to let well enough alone. Mayor Woodman is making the ablest mayor this city has ever had. The last time Mr. Snyder ran he was defeated. Had his two terms in office proved such a howling success, why was he not re-elected? Mayor Woodman doesn't have to notify the public in case he is elected that he will not be in favor of "the redlights" and the "underworld." He was never mayor when there was such. Mayor Woodman made his record as President of the Harbor Commission, and it was that record that first called attention to his excellent qualifications for mayor of a city as large as Los Angeles is now. When the opponent of Mayor Woodman was in office Los Angeles had the "spoils system," a system that WILL NEVER COME BACK. There are ten times the Colored men in office of some kind today, than there were during the time of Mr. Snyder. Peter C. Phillips is also a strong man with the people. He is hale, hearty and well met and stands for the people all the time. With him in the council the people at all times will have a friend at court. Senator H. H. Lyons is known as the special friend of the common everyday people and for that reason there is such a unanimity for his election. He is receiving a strong support from all classes. Assemblyman Bert L. Farmer, who is a candidate for the City Council, certainly does not expect or even think of receiving the support of any of the Colored voters if so their self respect would not permit them to do so. He has never even attempted to offer any explanation as to his attempt to humiliate the lone Colored attache at the beginning of this legislative session. We must stand for human progress, or we will get leit in the long run. The people are satisfied with the efficiency of Mayor Woodman. They know too that when he took charge, he found a Councilmanic Board, and members of the City Commission who were not of his selection, and he has been able to make a remarkable record for good and satisfactory government. The people know this and Mayor Woodman having made good with handicaps, will when elected by the people demonstrate just what he can do to make Los Angeles what it should be, the foremost business center in the West. LINCOLN COULD NOT HAVE QUALIFIED If a bill introduced by Assemblyman Bartlett becomes a law it will revolutionize the practice of law in California, insofar as the admission of members of the bar is concerned. It provides that one of the qualifications to even take the examination to practice shall be that the applicant is a high school graduate. If such a law had been in effect in 1850 the world would never have known Abraham Lincoln as a lawyer, or many others who have reached the highest pinnacles in legal lore. The self made man would have to bow down his head and would be denied the opportunity of qualifying in this profession. Then if you were too poor to graduate from a high school, have no ambition to digest Blackstone. We believe that this legislation is a decided step backward and it should not be placed on the statute books of this state. WHY WE SHOULD ELECT MAYOR WOODMAN We should elect Frederic T. Woodman mayor of Los Angeles because this city needs just such a man of a broad vision, untiring energy, and proven ability. First as President of the Harbor Commission he has saved thousands' of dollars to the taxpayers. He has started to build for the growing needs of a growing city. In his scheme of government he has mapped out plans for still greater betterment of economic conditions in this city. Because, he is the man needed in these war times whose ancestral patriotism can not be questioned. A son of the Revolution and the Grand Army of the Republic he can best realize what Americanism means for all the people. He is no smirking, smiling politician who believes the Colored man is fitted alone for the most ordinary hard work. He is being supported by the people who stand for the very best in this community, and was THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE not chosen by a close corporation of banks, booze, light gas to place new burdens on the people. He should be mayor to continue the good work he has so well begun down the high cost of living. He should be elected because all of his endeavors are in behalf of the people that kind of big business that means the smallest return people. Mr. Woodman will be elected very probably primaries. Let us work to that end. The headquarters of Mayor Woodman are located South Hill street, in charge of Mr. Vincent J. Gerlickable corps of assistants who will welcome you and give enquiries a cheerful answer. Let us be in a position to ask the newly elected man we helped elect, to protect us in the enjoyment of zen rights. Frederic T. Woodman is from that section of this that produced William Llyod Garrison, Wendell Phi Charles Sumner. Do not fear but that we will have the deal we ever had in this city. not chosen by a close corporation of banks, booze, lighting and gas to place new burdens on the people. He should be elected mayor to continue the good work he has so well began bringing down the high cost of living. He should be elected mayor because all of his endeavors are in behalf of the people and not that kind of big business that means the smallest returns to the people. Mr. Woodman will be elected very probably in the primaries. Let us work to that end. The headquarters of Mayor Woodman are located at 409 South Hill street, in charge of Mr. Vincent J. Gerlich and an able corps of assistants who will welcome you and give your enquiries a cheerful answer. Let us be in a position to ask the newly elected mayor, the man we helped elect, to protect us in the enjoyment of our citizen rights. Frederic T. Woodman is from that section of this country that produced William Llyod Garrison, Wendell Phillips and Charles Sumner. Do not fear but that we will have the fairest deal we ever had in this city.

JESUS THE GOOD SHEPHERD April 15—John 10:7-18 "I am the Good Shepherd; the Good Shepherd layeth down His life for the sheep." Verse II. The parable of today's study divides itself into two parts, representing Jesus first as the door into the sheepfold, and then as the shepherd. The fold described in the first five verses of our context was a place of safety from robbers, etc. Into this fold there was but one doorway, and it was guarded by a porter who knew the true shepherd and would admit none other. The porter who could thus discriminate between the false and the true was the Mosaic Law Covenant. He who could answer the requirements of the Law, was the true Shepherd, the Messiah. Our Lord met this requirement fully. "In Him was no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth." He found Jehovah's flock, approximately twenty thousand millions, torn, bleeding, dead and dying. Verse 2 and 1 Tim. 2:6. He gave his life for all the sheep. Thus He calls them His sheep, and calls them by name, but some are in the tomb and cannot hear, some are so near dead that they can neither hear nor see, so our Lord said. If any man hath an ear to hear let him hear. He said of the multitude, ears they have, but they hear not, but blessed are your ears for they hear. So we see that no sheep can come into the fold at this time unless they can hear the call of the Good Shepherd. These our Lord called a little flock, Luke 12:32. These are gathered during this Gospel Age. Verse 16, Our Lord said and other sheep I have, which are not of this fold; them I must bring (during the Millennial Age) and they shall hear my voice; and they shall be one fold, and one shepherd. "Hear His voice." John 5:28. For the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the tomb shall hear his voice and shall come forth (revised version); Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped. Matt. 25:31-49 describes the work of developing the sheep of the Millennial Age, saying, when the Son of Man comes in His glory, then shall He sit upon the throne of His glory and before Him shall be gathered all nations from the last man that lived back to and including Father Adam. For Heb. 2:9 says that Jesus Christ by the grace of God tasted death for every man and I Tim. 2:6 says He is to be testified to all in due time. So then will be the due time for all who did not hear the testimony and become sheep in the Gospel Age. Matt. 25:44-46 shows the result of the Thousand years' work, calling those who develop an obedient sheep like spirit, sheep, and those to the contrary, goats. Then He will have gathered together all the sheep into one Fold. Eph. 1:10. Then He will be Lord of All. ```markdown ``` section of banks, booze, lighting and the people.

J. H. SYKES MAKES PURCHASE In spite of the cry of hard times and the unsettled condition of affairs, Mr. J. H. Sykes, former proprietor of Sam's Dairy Lunch Room, has purchased a $1\frac{1}{2}$ acre ranch at Bell Station, where he proposes to establish a modern chicken ranch and go in the poultry business in up-to-date fashion. Mr. Sykes has on his ranch a modern 6-room cottage, which he proposes to fashion into a palatial residence. The Eagle reporter upon interviewing Mr. Sykes a few days ago learned that he is planning to make this proposition bigger than any other effort. Mr. Sykes has promoted several business projects in this city all of which have been a success.

The choir is making great preparation for the occasion. All are invited to be present. Refreshments will be served. REV. L. H. WASHINGTON, Pastor MRS. DENNEYS, Clerk. Committee—Mrs. Bennett, Mrs. Williams and Mr. Jones. St. Paul Baptist Church Has a New Postor. Acting upon a wise suggestion the members of St. Paul Baptist Church and many friends voted solidly for Dr. R. N. Holt, of Tulsa, Okla. for pastor. A most excellent spirit prevailed and all are extremely anxious to have Dr. Holt remain with St. Paul. The few nights meeting has brought many to posts of duty while others are expressing great hopes for the future of Zion. We are confident that under the leadership of this great man, St. Paul will take her place among the great factors in the establishment of the kingdom among men. Dr. Holt has virtually accepted but compelled to return home and prepare for this unexpected change. He will leave for Oklahoma within a few days to return with his family at the earliest possible date. We purpose to keep the fire burning until he shall return. Service each Sunday. All are invited. He Offers Something Better. Are you people tired of Ring Rule and high taxes? Are the east side people mad at having no representation in the City Council? Are you ready to put Business Men into the Council instead of politicians? Then get busy and use your ballots. Most of you know me and that I stand for District Representation and anti-Invisible Government. Take my name to the polls and your friends with you. T. J. Naylor Benefit Program a the Forum Sunday, May 6th The First Sunday in May has been set aside by the Forum at which time they will give a fitting program for the benefit of our fellow-townsman and fortunate co-laborer, De. T. J. Naylor. Dr. Naylor is well and favorably known at the Y. M. C. A. of which he was a resident and member and a faithful and active member of the Second Baptist Church. He is a member of the Tuskegee Club as well as the Forum. For more than one and one-half years he has been on the verge of going blind. He has been under the care of specialists and occultists but to no avail. As a last resort he was taken to the county hospital with the intention of operating as a final remedy, but so serious was the condition of his eyes it had to be abandoned. Now he is back home under the care of his mother, who comes all the way from St. Louis, Mo. to nurse him. The Forum's Committee knowing of this young man's worth to the community and the race, felt that it would be fitting and proper that the friends and acquaintances would manifest their friendship in the Forum for a benefit, feeling that it would be appreciated in his hour of affection and sorrow. A splendid program is being arranged by T. W. Troy, Chairman, assisted by W. L. Gordon, Secretary. The best talent will participate. The public is invited to make this commendable effort a success.

Speed Brooks, as they call him has speeded to Los Angeles where the girls can all make a fuss over him. An entertainment given at the residence of Mrs. Goodwin for the benefit of the church was a financial success. Mrs. M, T, Laws has been confined to her room since last week, suffering with tonsilitis. We hope to see her out in a few days. We know now why many people op at Mrs. DeFrantz's for their mid-day lunch. Had you been in on that chicken dinner sent out to one of his friends by the "Count" you would say that he is some cook all right. Mr. John Clark, chef on the Santa Fe private car spent the week in San Diego. While here he was especially entertained by his friend, Mr. M. T. Laws. They spent many hours together. Mrs. Donibue entertained Mrs. A. L. Gray of Los Angeles at her residence last week. The host of friends who were present made the evening an enjoyable one. Mrs. M. T. Laws who was invited took sick at the eleventh hour and could not attend. Easter Sunday was well observed by all the churches throughout the city. Speaking of them all as a whole, the young people in the various churches deserve much credit for the services which they rendered, as it was heard spoken on the streets that the young people' talent was a surprise last Sunday, and especially the Junior Choir of the A. M. E. Church. Rev. T. Allen Harvery, pastor of the A. M. E. church of this city, veteran of the Spanish American war, is taking the lead in forming a company of Negro soldiers to offer President Wilson in the present crisis. He informs the Eagle reporter that he is making rapid progress and will enlist a full company of more than 100 men which is a good showing for Sacramento. Mr. F. J. Butler informally entertained J. B. Bass, W. E. Peck and B. A. Johnson at his beautiful residence on F street last Thursday evening. Mr. H. Shannon of San Francisco is a visitor in our city this week. Sunday was the scene of a memorable sacramental service at St. Andrews A. M. E. church. The morning service will long be remembered. In the evening Rev. Harvey preached the annual sermon of the Eastern Star, the ladies turned out in a body and in their costumes of immaculate white they indeed made a highly creditable showing. On next Friday evening Editor J. B. Bass of the California Eagle will address the citizens of Sacramento at the A. M. E. church. Subject, "Patriotism." On the evening of the 17th he will deliver an address at the Second Baptist church on the same subject. The citizens are looking forward to the coming to our city of the Hon. Hugh E, Macbeth of Los Angeles, who will speak on the subject, "Marvelous Opportunities for the Negroes of California." Mr. Macbeth's fame as an orator and his great executive skill has preceded him and no doubt he will receive a royal greeting on the occasion of his first visit to Sacramento. --- The grand Easter ball given on last Monday night by the members of the Assembly Club was a magnificent success. The ladies were all out with their handsome Easter gowns on and one to look on at the latest efforts in the modiste's art would imagine that indeed they were in gay Paris. Many visitors were present from Woodland, Marysville, Colousa, Chico and other northern points. Mr. Stephen Thompson is president of the Club and Mr. Frank Ray its secretary. The young men are entitled to great credit for the excellent manner in which pulled off this grand Easter dansant. The effort of Rev. T. A. Harvey to enroll members of the Race for military duty received a great impetus on last Monday evening when at a meeting held for that purpose quite a few new signatures were obtained. The following visitors were present and spoke words of encouragement: C. W. Wilson of Los Angeles, H. Shannon of San Francisco and Editor I. B. Bass of Los Angeles. Will Show, the genial secretary of the Eureka Social Club, aside from having a sort of a philosophical mind is one of the men who encourages racial enterprise, and is always at the command of the press to assist the same in their line of effort. And we always appreciate these courtesies and we do not hesitate to say so. Mr. Snow has quite a following and is much sought for by the politicians of all factions. Tuesday evening Editor Bass will address the citizens in mass meeting assembled at the Shiloh Baptist church. Subject, "Patriotism of the American Negro." All are looking forward to the coming to the capital city of the Hon. Hugh E. Macbeth of Los Angeles, who will speak at St. Andrews church on Monday evening the 23rd inst, also the Hon. Oscar Hudson of San Francisco. WITH THE LAW MAKERS AT THE STATE CAPITOL This has indeed been a notable week with the two houses of the legislature. Foremost among the measures considered was the Rominger Bill, which was defeated last week, but like Banquo's ghost, would not stay down. It came back on Monday, was reconsidered and passed before the shades of evening of that day. The reason for this remarkable change of front, was that some Senators had heard from home in no unmistakable tones and as a result they changed their votes, to be in strict accord with the wishes of their constituents. The measure now comes to the Assembly and there will indeed be a hot time in the old town when the measure is taken up for consideration in that body. At this time no one can even hazard a guess as to what the outcome will be. The Sunday Closing Bill Assemblyman Morris seems to have hard sledding with his measure for a Sabbath rest of divers of occupations on Sunday, in fact, every line of industry, except those of necessity, and in enumerating the various occupations of necessity the saloon was included as one of them, but an amendment was offered by Assemblyman Pettus of Mendocino county, cutting out the saloon as a business of necessity, and the amendment was adopted. The measure comes up Thursday as a special order for passage as amended and then again the fur will fly. The eugenic marriage law which appeared to be defeated in our last letter passed the Assembly on last Thursday. If this bill passes in the Senate and is signed by the Governor, in the future in this state no couple can unite in the bonds of holy matrimony except they can produce a certificate from some reputable physician that they are free of contagious or transmissable disease. Legislative Notes Assemblyman Ryan of San Francisco and Mouser had quite a set to over a measure which Mr. Ryan was championing on last Monday. The Daily Union of this city seems not only small in its physical make up, but small in its cheap attempt to ridicule by innuendo. A real live big paper of course cannot afford to stoop to small things.

Mr. and Mrs Hayman of Los Angeles were in the city on Sunday in the Eldorado Gold Star Mining Co. The Stockholders held a meeting Monday evening at the residence of Mrs. Annie Green. A large crowd attended the Easter services at the Second Baptist Church on Sunday evening. A beautiful solo was rendered by Miss Margaret Shaw, and a whistling solo by Miss Bessie Malone, both being Monrovia's leading vocalists. The Easter services held at the A. M. E. in Duarte on Sunday afternoon was largely attended. Patriotism reigns supreme especially so in the Assembly. In opening the session the members and attaches stand and with fervor sing, "My Country 'Tis of Thee." C. W. Lyon, Assemblyman from Los Angeles, is a strong force in the Assembly, and thus far has successfully championed more measures on the floor of the Assembly than any other member. ST. ANDREWS A. M. E. CHURCH Rev. T. Allen Harvey, Pastor. At the least it was a recordbreaker in the history of the church in many instances. Sunday morning at 10:45 the pastor delivered his Easter sermon to a full house on the text, "He is risen, He is not here." The Reverend truly made those present think that the Lord was risen then. The church was decorated by the Superintendent of the Sunday School, Mrs. Harvey, it had the resemblance of an earthly heaven. After the sermon the Reverend baptized the younger daughter of Mr. J. Sareshi. At 1 o'clock the Sunday School rendered its program. The superintendent and teachers gave credit to themselves as well as to the full house present. At night was the crowning point of the day. The pastor gave a short sermon on the lily. Afterwards the choir, rendered a grand musical program. Seating room in the church was at a premium, even to the balcony. Total collection for the day was $32.35. The editor of The Eagle graced the church with his presence. A great day in Zion it was. WATTS NEWS Mr. King from Oakland was down visiting in our city, Sunday Mrs. Jackson on Thaxter St. has been on the sick list for several days. Mrs. Martin on Villa Ave. attended church at Rev. Greggs on Sundav. Mrs. Beeks entertained Mr. and Mrs. Hinton from Santa Puala Easter Sunday. Mrs. Black, niece of Mrs. Leak, on Peck St. left for Portland, Oregon, Wednesday. Rev. Ramsey finds Watts people liberal and kind always making him welcome. Easter exercises were beautifully carried out by Mrs. Trigg and Mrs. Leak and children. Misses Grace Owens, Comfort, Nutt and others attended Easter service at Eighth and Tewne Sunday. Miss Gladys Lishey gave her heart and hand to Mr. R. Fortier as a partner for life on the 28th of March. Mrs. Arrington gave her oldest daughter a birthday dinner at Grandma Beeks' on Compton Ave. Easter Sunday. Watts Christian Aid Club met at Mrs. Perry and Williams on Ramsuer Ave. A goodly number were present and the meeting was very harmonious. Mrs. Lane on Alabama St, motored down to the beaches in honor of Mrs. Wolf, of Kansas City and Mr. Allens children from Omaha, Neb., last Thursday. Mr. and Mrs. Wilson Fields entertained several friends on the 1st in honor of their anniversary. They were the recipients of many pretty and valuable presents. We hope for them many more years of wedded bliss. Rev. Edwards and wife united with Rev. Trigg Easter Sunday and in his sermon let many good seed fall to be rooted and spring up in some good heart. We wish Easter was every Sunday as so many came to the house of the Lord. The young people of the Baptist Church met Tuesday evening and organized a Combination Club with the following officers: Nelson Williams, Pres., Buelah Ross, Vice-Pres.; Arthur Weaver Secy.; Betty Copney, Treas.; Mr. Lee Copney, Leader; Mrs. Louise Simpson, Pianist.

I represent no faction nor any corporate interests, but believe in justice for all. SCOTT CHAPEL NOTES The blessings of Easter fell upon Scott Chapel in common with all God's churches. The early morning prayer meeting brought out about 30 people who entered fervently in prayer and testimony to the blessings of Christ upon their lives. Pastor Kinchen preached the Easter message. This was followed by exertion by the bishop schoolin charge of Mrs. M. Moore and Mrs. Lori Mills. This was followed by an open air service lead by Superintendent Bragg on the beautiful lawn of Mr. Henry Harris, closing with an egg hunt. The Epworth League last Sunday was lead by Mr. J. C. Tate. Our splendid choir directed by Mrs. E. Monroe Beavers excelled itself in the wonderful message brought to Calvary and in the other features of the evening program. Pastor Kinchen is not only putting his church in touch with the community life and bringing it in touch with the white people, but the Sabbath school as well. Wednesday of this week a group of young Sunday school scholars weer sent to First Methodist church to give their little message in the interest of the Colored_people in America and those in Africa. Pastor Kinchen will preach at both services on next Sunday. The pastor and his family have moved to the parsonage at 663 South Raymond which has been beautifully renovated by Mr. J. Y. Bernard.

This statement was made by the old timers, those who have stood by Bethel through thick and thin. The church is alive. This was proved when nearly fifty persons enjoyed the six o'clock services when the pastor delivered a soul stirring sermon. At eleven o'clock a full house enjoyed a heart to heart talk on Easter by the pastor.

The expansion of the city's commerce and the illimination of heavy taxes for unnecessary improvements. Efficiecy and practical economy." Having been a workingman all my life, the interest of the man who works will receive the first consideration from me. I will not be unfair in any act to favor the workingman; but shall see that his interest is not abused because he has not the time, the money or the knowledge to care for it himref. As a lifetime observer of the civic management of this municipality I have noted necessity of more efficient management and application of practical economics. I therefore, welcome the support of all who are in favor of efficient management and practical economy. SAINTS' HOME CHURCH 20thSt and Hooper Avenue Eddie R. Driver, D.

The past twelve months have had their trials and sorrows, but they bave vanished in joys and pleasures of Eastertide. Winter with its icy blankets, chilly winds, dreary blasts and sombre hue has gone. The grass and flowers have awakened from their slumbers and dressed themselves in the garments of spring. All nature is pulsating with life, revealing the blessed assurance that sorrow is followed by joy, sick- ness, pain and death by health, strength, vigor and beauty, A few months ago we enjoyed the Christmastide when faith- began to burn brightly; when the old earth was traveling away from the sun. But this glorious season we add to faith, hope. We pluck a new gem from the heaven- ly diadem. This same old earth switeh- ed her course and started back toward ‘the sun and the birds of hope twitter in the tree tops with notes that are di- virie. At this glorious'season when joy is filling every heart, I ask you to walk with me to the graveyard. -It is evera place full of sweet memories and asso- ciations hallowed beyond deseription. As we wander pass themarble statutes and recall sadly the memories of the deaf ones that are gorie, we look into the distant future ard long for the glorious day when ;the steel-bound | gates of the inexorable past will be un- locked and we shall fondly embrace those for whom we have wept...... But the grave we visit at this season is unlike that of any of the children of men.! ‘We find no bones, no dust, no ashes, The lifeless body has burst asunder the bonds of death and instead of gloom, despair and sadness we behold white-winged megsengers of heaven sitting on the stone of the sepulehre empty and proclaiming to a fallen world, “‘He is not here; for He is risen as He said. Come see | the place where the Lord lay.”” The lesson for us in this glorious resurrection period is this. As, Christ arose so shall we who lives in Him and with Him. As Christ broke the shack- elsof death, unbarred the prison of the grave and glorified God, 80 may we if | we have the mind in us which was in jcens Jesus. Many of us now need a resurrection. Mary souls.are wrap- | ped in the graveyard of iniquity. You are struggling against the strong ties of some degrading habit you are cast- img away yovr manhood and..woman- hood. You long to look up from the valley of misery, woe and sorrow to the mountaintops of honor, glory and joy. I hear a vale this blessed Easter morn that sounps like the voice of God. From across‘ the gulf of nine- teen centuries it cries out tI ‘am the | resurrection and the life; he that be- lieveth in Me, though he were dead, |yet shall he live. And whosoever be- eiveth inMeshall neverdie. Believeth thou this."” My friends, if the resurrection means anything, it means just this: That the sinfal and guilt-stained transgressor if he wills can arise and be a new crea- ture in Christ Jesus the Lord, Can't you walk by the gilded saloon anid leave the cursing goblet alune? Afe you rolling down the hill of sinful 2 ‘Are you lying in the cod ‘and | weary graveyard of blasted effort? Arise and shine for thy Hight has come.| Walk cat on the platform of Jehovah's prom- saan eerste your course and walk to- ward Jesus—put your eyes on the bright and morning star and some beautiful resurrection morn we shall gather up the skirts trimmed with the lace of righteousness. We shall bring im the sheaves and have no chaff; we shall cut down the tree and leave no stumps; we shall pull the lillies and drop no petals; we shall rake through the soil and find no stone and ia the choir loft of eternity sing our resur. rection anthem, “Al Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name.” | REV.

Why not seek independ ‘ence and ‘camfort in life? There are many ways to attain it if you only know how. . Ali you need is an opportunity to get into a legal and honest money-making enterprise on the ground floor and: at the right time and you are in the road tb atiecess. This is Your Opportunity-The Chance of Your Life to join us in the Oil Land Developement Industry—the greatest money-making industry of today. Small investors have sacle and are still making fabulous profits from oil: and oil lands. In many instances emell investors haye made from %50 to $500 for every dollar invested. You can have the game opportunity if you will a¢- cept our cooperation. ' ° . { ‘This is an opportunity s0 unique andeo remarkable in its profitearn- ing possibilities that it should awaken thetinterest of every, person to whose attention this announcement-eomes. It offers an opportunity for you to invest a large or small cum in a sane, clean, economically ‘managed company on a most profitable cooperative profit-sharing ‘basis with all the stock rigke illiminsted. JUST THINK, $75 in cash or in 15 monthly payments will secure deed to eight large oil lots and? an- interest in all the oil out of four or more wells, to be drilled under our liberal cooperative profit-sbaring plan, giving each investor a chance to secure a Lance Mowraty Income from the oil as well 98 from the land, being situated in the center of three large oil fields in Hardin County, Texas. Said fields produced more than 10,000,000 barrels of oil in 1914-15, and more than 50 gushers, from 1,000 to 10,000 barrels came in during tbat time. Single lots in the fields near by have been sold for $1,000 to $15,000. Our investors will-have the same chance, after we have brought in ove or two wells, to sell their land for just as much or more. We have only one thousand sharesin all, (each share consists of eight lots, being one-fourth of an acre;) therefore the profit for each share will be large. The following illustration will show the profit each investor will receive out of a certain number of barrels at the present price of oil: Should onr first well prove to be a 5,000 barrel producer, then each share of eight lots will receive $150 a nfonth and should the first four wells produce 20,000 barreis, then each ehare of eight lots will receive $600 a month, CERTAINLY, NOTHING LIKE THIS HAS EVER BEEN OF- FERED THE PUBLIC BEFORE You probably have neglected many a money-making opportunity but dont neglect this one, it means your fortune, and 1s right within your reach.

Read My Piatfobm. First—I think membership in in the CITY COUNCIL a place of honor and trust and if elected, Ishall try to treat all classes just- ly so that at the end of mj term I shall feel that I have been worthy of the honor bestowed upon me. ~Second—I' consider that the smallest wage earner pays his share of taxes, either directly or indirectly, and his interests should be proteeted just as carefuliy as those: of the more wealthy or influential. Third—I mean to look upon all matters with fairness and equity toward all classes, with the best interests of LOS ANGELES al- waysin view. Fourth—Laws that are bene- ficial to the public in general should be enforced without’ fear or favor, and those laws that are not for the public welfare should be changed to meet present con- ditions. \ Fifth—Any new radical laws should have the fullest _consider- ation, and the advice of able and competent men who have been accustomed to handling large affairs. Sixth—Licensee should not be placed so high as to breed dis- honesty or crime and any busi- ness for which the payment of a license is required. should have the full protection of the govern- ment Ta wht it operates, within its I¢gal rights. Seventh—I do not believe in so burdening the city with indebt- edness, causing excessive in- crease in taxation, as to\discour- age new-tomers-to invest their money in hontes here, or discour- age wage earners in their ambit- ion to own their own homes. Eighth—I believe in municipal ownership in’all instances based on thorough business principles, where the benefit and profit to the public are assured. MARK G.
