Roland B. Hayes World-Renowned Tenor In Recital at Blanchard's Hall February 11th Calexico Investment Company ESTABLISHED 1879 LEADING RACE JOURNAL THE LARGEST AND BEST PHONE MAIN 1594 VOLUME .30 Rolando In Re Calexico Investr THE CALEXICO INVESTMENT COMPANY PERSONNEL OF ITS OFFICERS Calexico on the border of Mexico and in the heart of the tertile Imperial Valley, is one of the busiest points of this great empire. It is a gateway for the farming products of Mexico and of the valley itself. At the cotton press here can be viewed thousands upon thousands of bales of cotton. Likewise all sorts of farm products pass through the gateway. This makes Calexico a bustling, busurg, with marvelous opportunities. Long business lines, and the forward cooking business men with their eyes and ears open, seeing an opportunity for the colored people to get in on the ground floor in the lines of business effort, formed at this place the Calexico Investment Company, the same is incorporated under the laws of California and has been duly authorized to place its stock upon the market. The capital "stock" of the company is $20,000,00 with 4000 shares at a par value of $500 per share. A remarkable feature of the company is the fact that no investor of this company can possible lose, as their stock stands to be redeemed at face valuation on demand; their entire capital stock at all times is absolutely guaranteed. The personnel of the company is made up of men who are and have been successful in their various lines of effort, and they are striving for the race to make good along all lines in this great valley and to partake of its marvelous opportunities. They propose to locate lands, farms, conduct business enterprises, and in fact engage in any legitimate business enterprises which will make money for the shareholders. E. C. Dyer President Rev. E. C. Dyer, who is one of Calxico's progressive and aggressive citizens is the president of this company. He has already demonstrated his executive ability by the work long progressive lines which he has accomplished. He stands high in the community and is a worthy representative. E. W. Mevers Vice President E. W. Meyers was born at Russelville, Kentucky, August 2nd, 1862. He earned the cooper's trade and in 1880 rent to Jeffersonville, Ind., returning to his Kentucky home he entered the grocery business with J. F. Gray, educator and noted orator. From 1883 to 1885 he was engaged in private family and hotel work at St. Louis, and in the former became associated with Seeley B. Mudd, at present living in Los Angeles, California. And is chief engineer and mining expert for the largest gold mining company in the world. Leaving this service he came to California, engaged in various business offers for the last thirty years. At present he is engaged in caring for his retail properties and two ranches in good near Mexico. Mr. Meyers with his vast influence and his wealth is pushing to the utmost the success of this company. The California Eagle A. I. Fitzpatrick, Secretary The very busy secretary of this company, A J. Fitzpatrick, hails from Montgomery, Ma where he was born. He obtained his elementary education at Swain College. He learned the carpenter's trade and in 1889 went to Denver, Colo. where he contracted for and erected the Laborer's Union Hall, which was a twenty thousand dollar job. He also procured other contracts worth while. He entered the Denver University Law School, completing the elementary contract here he entered Pond's Business College, finishing a complete course, and in 1904 was appointed index clerk in the court house of Arapahoe county. In 1912 he came to Los Angeles, was prominent in all movements for racial uplift. Leaving here in 1917 he came to Calexico. At his trade as a carpenter and contractor he has built some splendid edifices for some of the foremost citizens, who testify to his worth to the community, has bought property here and has been invaluable in his service for this great forward movement in organizing the Calexico Investment Co. for while he is a carpenter by trade, he is both a lawyer and bookkeeper by education. MANSFIELD A. R. Lewis The treasurer of the Calexico Investment Company was born in Mississippi in 1873. He attended the public schools there until he was eighteen years of age. Afterwards he attended the Jackson Normal College at Jackson, Mississippi. On leaving college he taught school-for fifteen years in the states of Mississippi, Texas and Louisiana. In 1900 he was appointed by the school board of Natchitoches as principal of the city school at Natchitoches, La. After teaching ten years in one place in Sabine Parish, La, the thrifty colored farmers of that section asked his advice about building a normal college in that part of the state, there being no other college within 125 miles, he advised them that it would be a success. He sent for his brother, W. H. Lewis, a graduate of Fisk University, to aid in this work. They collected enough money during the month of August to purchase 6 acres of land at Mary, La. Four months afterwards the college building was ready for opening. The school was named the Southwestern Normal College. The building is a 3-story structure. 40x60. After teaching in this college for some time, A. R. Lewis gave up the work of teaching and moved to Boley, Okla., and went into the mercantile business. He lived in that state 6 years; from thence to California. For 5 years he has lived in this state, four of which he has spent in Calexico. Offices The offices of this company are located in the splendid building of E. W. Meyers, 212 Imperial Ave., and here the business of the same is transacted, amid surroundings which are thoroughly business like and numbered. Among its stockholders are some of the most substantial citizens of California. So impressed was the managing editor and the editor of the flagge with the stability and worthiness of this effort that we felt complimented to have the opportunity of buying a share each on the spot. Parties wishing for further information would do well to address the company, 212 Imperial Ave., Calexico Cd. San Diego, San Francisco and Oakland Hamilton Embree Chairman Committee on Finance The chairman of the finance committee, Hamilton Embree, was born at Burton, in Anderson County, Mo., February 9th, 1881, by a plasterer by trade and in 1895 came to California where he worked at his trade. He came to Calvico some two years ago and has been an employee of E. W. Myers during that time EDITOR AND MANAGING EDITOR'S TRIP THROUGH THE GREAT IMPERIAL VALLEY We left Los Angeles Saturday evening, Jan. 5, and after a pretended night's ride landed at Imperial City at 8:30 a.m., Sunday, Jan 6 and were met at the station by the Rev. C. N. Moore, who is pastor of the First Baptist church of Imperial City. Rev. Moore conducted us to the home of Mrs. White, who lives not far from the station, and who is one of the few real pioneer colored citizens of Imperial. Mrs. White has a nice little home, in every way modern and up-to-date, and with her husband and two daughters represent the best citizenship. After we had refreshed ourselves we started out for the little church which is not far from the central part of the city. Here we found the Sunday school still in session, and were delighted to notice the number of beautiful boys and girls, numbering in all about thirty, in this town with a population of about 60 families (colored). As we walked into the little church the first thing that attracted our attention was the beaming face of our good Sister Moore, who sat in the center of a circle of little folks with their bright eyes turned upon her face, as she taught them concerning "Jesus"—we spoke to these little people and found them attentive listeners. Immediately after the close of the school the morning service was begun. It being the first Sunday of the month and the New Year, the order of the day was covenant and a good old time revival it was. On Monday evening we again spoke to a crowded house at Imperial, and received the heartfelt encouragement from Brother and Sister Moore and their entire congregation. Monday afternoon we addressed the W. H. and F. Missionary Society, of which Sister, Agnes Williams is president and were tendered a highly appreciated reception by Sister A. Richie, at whose home the meeting was held. We were glad to find these sisters wide awake and responsive to our argument in behalf of civic righteousness. It is impossible for us to close this chapter of our visit to Imperial City without saying something about the "Red Light" of modern Monte Carlo of that section, and on account of lack of space we will continue this account in our next issue. SIDE LIGHTS TOUCHING THE HIGH PLACES OF IMPERIAL VALLEY (By the Editor) At Imperial we had the pleasure of meeting many former citizens of Los Angeles, among whom were C.S. Brown and his wife. They are conducting a restaurant here as they did in Los Angeles. They are alive to the issue and without doubt will make good. Then there is Mr. A. Lincoln who was a prominent business man of Bakersfield. He is conducting a large rooming house and owns both the ground and building which is on it, a large brick structure. He is doing a good business and insists that the same shall be thorough. by clean. Mr. Lincoln is making good. There are many others, some of whom are on the ranches. J. A. Coleman, formerly in business in Friese, is also in business here. He contemplates raising this year, poultry on a large scale. Rev. C. N. Moore, formerly of this city, is not content at his church work but is also in the business ranks and conducts a barber business. He also has interested quite a few in the lands near here subject for government entry, and is sounding the slogan, "Do Something." Of the forward-looking citizens who are pioneers in this section is Mr. Jerry Cavers, president of the "Foraker Social Club." He is probably the best known colored citizen in the valley. For years he trektured the meat of the Valley and is well and favorably known throughout the Valley. His business partner, Johnny Cullerson, is also well known, and has a host of friends. His mother, who lives at El Centro, is one of the pioneers in this section and highly respected citizens, who own valuable property. Johnny is a live wire and a splendid business man. Here we also met Clover Smith (Bad Boy), premier pool champion, who we first knew in Helena, Monf; and now be it known that Clover while he has not been ambitious along the forward movement lines, and while he has been bringing up the rear guard for progress, says Sambo has woke up and he is going to grasp some of the opportunities on this great valley. At Calexico Here is the ideal place to get on the movement for a metropolis. The new and growing town of Calexico offers marvelous opportunities. Only eight years old she is forging to the front with rapid strides and we predict will speedily overtake both El Centro and Imperial. The colored citizens have organized here a stock company and it is a winner. Our people should buy this stock and get in on the ground floor for these great opportunities. E. W. Meyers, well known in California, has accumulated great interest here and to his credit. He is the exception. He is striving to benefit his race and is sparing no pains or expense to do so. A. J. Fitzpatrick, formerly of this city, is making good with a vengeance at this point and is one of the leading building contractors here. Then there is J. Akers, formerly of Los Angeles forging right to the front. He conducts one of the leading cigar and tobacco stands on the main street of the city. Also E. J. Lane is in the same line of business and he is making good and others too numerous to mention. Near Calexico is the land of R. L. Armstrong, the cotton king. We took a day and visited his ranch and stayed all night. One would be surprised at the conditions. He lives in a large, well built and spacious bungalow style mansion. On entering his reading room and parlor, one would fail to note the difference of the same in comparison with the same parlor in the city. Inuxuriously furnished, with Viceroy self-playing piano and everything to match. Going outside to the corrals we saw innumerable horses, cows, droves of turkeys, chickens and farming implements, and then one would look over his vast fields of cotton, with a score or more of hands picking the same. We met here W. W. Gay, former collector for the New Age. He is enthusiastic over his success here and has made good and we were told he was rated as the best cotton picker on the plantation. Gay told us that he had been sleeping long enough and that he was certainly going to take advantage of the opportunity offered, and become one of the farmers of the valley this year. He expects to become a producer. Armstrong is certainly a credit to the race. He has a large tractor plow which is constantly busy turning the soil. He has a large Hupmobile and is extremely busy going from ranch to ranch looking after his large interests. This past year he had more than 400 acres in cotton. Gus Mason, formerly of this city, was also on the job at Armstrong's as well as others from this city. At El Centro This is the metropolis of the valley. Many former citizens of Los Angeles are located here, prominent among whom is F. R. Alexander, prominent in the public life of this city for many years. He has purchased property there and is doing well. W. E. Howze is here in business. I. S. Watts is working at the Barbalar Worth Hotel, as well as several other of our boys and women. This hotel employs colored help and they offer splendid inducements for their help. Mr. Bartholomew is the head waiter. He has the appearance of a splendid young man and we were informed that he is a real first class head waiter. Also at the hostelry W. A. Grainger is employed. Grainger is a hustler and one of our host, young men. Mr. A. R. Rosomond is conducting a renting house on the main street and doing well. Rev. A. J. Davis is a newcomer, has purchased a commissional rooming house. He is from Oklahoma and himself and wife are splendid people. Organ Recital by Dr. Ray Hasting and Lecture by Dr. Chas. Edward Locke. Under Auspices of Men's Co-operative Club of 1st A. M. E. Church, a Magnificent Success. The Men's Co-operative Club of the 1st A. M. E. Church covered themselves with glory when on last Tuesday night they presented for the benefit of the 1st Church, Dr. Ray Hastings in organ recital and Dr. Chas. Edward Locke, who lectured on the subject, 'Getting Along With Folks'. A magnificent crowd was present and they enjoyed to the utmost one of the greatest programs of the kind ever presented in any chime or place. Dr. Ray Hastings came up to his great reputation which had preceded him, and enthralled the great audience with the highest classics arranged for the organ, he look occasion to say that the organ at this church was exceptionally a good one, and proclaimed Mr. Eliner Bartlett as a highly capable musician and deserving of the support of the people. Dr. Charles Edward Locke Now Dr. Locke is a prime favorite with our people for the reason that he always brings to them a message of hope and cheer and on last Tuesday evening, his subject, "Getting Along With Folks," brought to them most widely the bright spots and the brittleness to success, and for more than one hour the vast audience breathlessly listened to catch each word which seemed "like drops of gold to them. His delineation of the pessimist was realistic indeed, and if the full complement of the barefooted brigade had been present they too could not help but have been benefited. His elucidation of "Tact" was masterful and hit the marks. This great lecture delivered by a great man acclaimed great good and its influence will go forth for much Between the numbers, Hall's Jubilee Singers presented several selections which were greatly enjoyed by the people. Mr. Payie Middleton, at the opening of the program, briefly outlined the objects of the club, Mr. E. C. Bartlett, president of the club, introduced Dr. Hastings and Attorney W. O. Tyler presented Dr. Locke, Rev. J. Logan Craw made a few remarks which aroused the greatest of enthusiasm. To the Men's Co-operative Club and particular to their president goes the credit of this notable affair. OUR DRY GOODS STORE! I started out the other day in quest of a pair of shoes. Walking up Central Avenue I paused at the store operated by Jackson and West. I made known my desires and they were satished. As I wended my way homeward I thought to myself what a fine thing it would be if every Negro who bought shoes would give this firm a chance to please them. We spent thousands of dollars in shoes every year, here is one of our own firms delivering the goods, then why not give then a chance? I was treated with the highest courtesy. My heart was touched with their congeniality. My pride was stirred by their business acumen. I have decided to visit them again. One of the lessons being taught by this war is the power of co-ordination and co-operation. Opportunities are being given us to progress as never before. To grasp them we must stand by one another. No people can rise higher than their spirit of co-operation. You preach co-operation. you talk federation, you cry aloud from the house top. "Let's get together." Suppose we stop so much talking and have a practical demonstration. Tell me where you bought your shoes, collars, ties, etc, and I will measure your Race pride. United we stand - divided we fall. REV. B. C. ROBESON. THE NATIONS OF THE EARTH ARE BEGINNING TO AWAKE TO THE CAUSE OF THEIR TROUBLES. Editor of the Eagle—I spoke last week through the columns of your paper on the cause and remedy of the world's present troubles. I said that the manner in which the nations had treated helpless Africa was the real foundation of its present troubles. I am more than pleased to note through the columns of Wednesday's Exantiner, that the English people have made a proposal to the German world, that all nations be made free, all the nations of the earth. And that even, in the heart of Africa will the same law hold good. But they make this exception as to Africa, saying that every one knows that Africa is unable to govern its life for that reason, they would internationalize Africa that is, instead of Africa being the headings of any one of the civilized nations, would be the property of the great national combine of civilization or in other words all Africa would belong to all the civilized nations. Well, I am happy that they have begun to see their sins. As I pointed out last week, and once this moral light begins to dawn, it will not cease until the whole civilized world shall be flooded with true light. But one fatal thing in this conclusion is the fact, that they say that Africa is unable to govern herself and for that reason they are justified in stepping in and governing Africa. But this conclusion is as much of a reproach to God as any conclusion to which they could come. God has created no race upon earth which is unable to govern itself. It is always able to have and enjoy such a government as is suitable for its unfoldment. Every wild animal and every wild bird and even the insect world all are capable of self government, and when one man or race charges another race or individual of being incapable of self government it can only come from the blantant egotism of civilization. What nation is capable of the proper self government? They all declare that Russia is not, and they pity the poor German people, being dominated by one man, the Kaiser. And have not all of the boasted nations under monarchial government, proven themselves unable to govern themselves. Take the bloody history of the civilized nations and does it indicate any great ability at self government? How has Mexico gotten along at self government? And even our own country has made and does continued to make unspeakable blunders at self government. The most dangerous crimes are charged by one civilized nation against another. Murder and robberies run riot in our civilized land. Life in Liberia, Africa, is safer today for any one than in our own boasted Washington city. And now Africa does not know how to govern herself. The very home of self government, the most law abiding people in the world. I never heard of an anarchist in Africa. This charge that Africa cannot control herself is a blatant subterfuge, at excuse, for robbing that helpless land and it is all because they are helpless. I wonder would the Italians claim that Menclik is unable to govern his country. It will not help Africa and it will continue to be the world's open sore, as long as the sons of Africa, are deprived of freedom. The one thing that helps a people at self government is the love of justice and truth. And no nation or individual whose moral susceptibilities are so blunted that he cannot give justice to all regardless of race, is united for self government in the highest sense, as the world's present break down indicates. This national partnership in holding Africa, will be so obnoxious to God that He will manifest His displeasure in making it the one means of wrecking that civilization completely, that has proven itself unworthy of continued existence. If Africa is weak, she is weak because she has suffered at the hands of every civilized nation. These thousands of years every kind of trick has been played off on Africa and every intrigue possible from wicked men. Now let the civilized nations make reparation in Africa. Let them organize them into states and nations and teach them agriculture, and if they want them to have a European form of civilization then proceed to give it to them. Even though it has not proven to the white race entirely satisfactory. Will any of these countries which have been conquered be able to govern themselves so long as they are plundered, robbed and intimidated by the conquerors? So with poor Africa. There is a light that lightens every man that cometh into the world. You do not get to be a man until you are brought into it by the law of God. Some call it evolution and if God says, that you are a man, unsay it if you please, and you withstand the very law of evolution yourself, your government then turns to self destruction, which is the end of modern civilization. It destroys itself because it destroyed its brother. Humanity is one; there is no escape from the inexorable law. The southern people said of the Negro that he was born to be a slave and could not govern himself in a free country. How have such utterances panned out? A man who is base enough to hold a slave is for many reasons unfitted to judge his slaves' ability. Like the North had to force the South to free its slaves, so conditions will force all races of the earth to conclude that out of one blood God created all nations to dwell upon the face of the earth and that the Negro is just as entitled to have his own kind of government as he is to have his own kind of skin, hair and facial appearance. God never allows one nation to get so far at self-government that he can impose that government upon others without their consent. Even God doesn't allow the angels of heaven to do that. ‘What the Churches are Doing Paes Twu A. M,E. ZION CHURCH ‘Rev. B. C.

In all, stupid and disingenuous. In calling attention to the people for a stronger support for their very own press we have often called, attention to the fact that no laudable effort would (only in exceptional cases) ever gain the car of the white press; and daily happenings should bring this idea forebear to the attention of even the casual observer and reader. Only the untoward happenings are featured by the white press and only this last week the Times gives a column and a half featuring a cheap church squabble in one of our smallest churches. A few days before another daily, the Record, featured in large and gloving headlines a most ridiculous story about some nonsensical, blood test, and essaying that the same was promoted by a prominent colored leader, knowing full well that the statement was a lie and a reflection on a progressive and loyal race. And now here comes the Express, of which we have a right, in view of its past attitude, to hope for better things from this source, they come out in big headlines featuring a story of a mighty protest by the colored people against their being colonized by a local attorney, in Mexico, and they too, essayed that this particular movement was fathered by another leader who is as impossible, even more so, than the one designed in the Record. Now we protest this libel on a race of people who are struggling to rise. The colored people can think and act for themselves, they are not fools, each and every incident referred to aboye is preposterous and ridiculous to the highest degree. In fact these great big metropolitan journals should be told in some way that this race has reached the point in civilization where it eschews barefoot and irresponsible leadership. It looks bad for these great journals to stoop to carry carrion and mash sour grapes for these pseudo leaders. In fact to us their procedure seems very dull, stupid and disingenuous. Somebody get them told! SAMBO IS WAKING UP strip of the editors of this paper no doubt reveal the fact that g at the soil, and now after shaken advantage of his opport A perusal of the trip of the editors of this paper through the great Imperial Valley, will no doubt reveal the fact that the colored man has lost ground by shying at the soil, and now after sleeping, while the Asiatic have come and taken advantage of his opportunity, it's up to all the forces which really stand for race advancement, to encourage the movement "back to the soil." There are yet yawning opportunities in the Imperial Valley, on the Salton Sea, as well as in the Paul Verde Valley, and some of our very representative citizens are presenting marvelous opportunities in Lower California. So the fellow who will oppose the soil is naturally not going to do anything any way; so lose no time with him. Just preach the doctrine to the men and women of the race, for out of the soil and out of the bowels of the earth lies the future destiny of the race. The sad, sickening spectacle of herding up in the cities, living from hand to mouth, is a reflection when a competence and contentment is so near at hand. "Acres of diamond at our feet." Do not let the false cry of segregation fool you; no real race man objects to volunteer segregation, we practice that eternally when we have our own chirrenes, lodges, etc. We should have more by a closer bond of union for business. Be like the Danes who would destroy the hearing of their horses that they would not become affrighted in battle; turn a deaf ear to all who would hinder our progress and use all your influence to aid and assist the movement "back to the soil." The more we witness the blinders and the exalted opinions which some of our supposed literary giants of the press have of themselves, the more we are convinced that the newspaper business has spoiled some mighty good plow hands. If you expect attacks on individuals you need not read the Eagle, as our conception of journalism has long since taught us that such bushwhacking falls far short of the mission of a dignified press. We are on the walls at all times to exploit the forward movements of the race and shall do our utmost to encourage the same. We let the small cheap snide hypocrites who essay to gain the spotlight of publicity by scurrilous attacks on some individual who is really doing something, go, for if given enough rope they will surely break their own neck. THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE EAST FIFTY-FIRST ST. EVENING SCHOOL NOTES Chas. L. S. Jason, Principal On last Friday evening a large and appreciative audience at the East 55th St. Evening School enjoyed a special program under the direction of Miss Ruth Sykes. The special features were the reading of several poems by Mr. E. S. Jones, the Colored poet-author of the book entitled, "The Sylvan Cabin"; the sweet singing of the talented Mr. Harvey Patton and his sister; the skillful work of the Smith brothers with the saxophone and little Master Sykes with the violin. Mr. Harold Wilson in the role of an impersonator increased his popularity on this occasion. The young men and women of the evening school have organized a club under the direction of Miss Vena of the State Normal. Their object is to study current history to engage in debates and perhaps work up a nice drama for the benefit of the school before the close of the school year. Miss Hubbard of the sewing department and her students are planning to have an old fashion "Quilting Bee" in the near future. If any ladies have any quilts which they wish to finish, come and join the sewing class. Miss Williamson of the State Normal School, spent a very pleasant evening inspecting our school, last week. Mr. Eason, the principal, is offering a splendid civil course course for those who anticipate taking civil service examination. All are invited to joint the class. Come and get ready for some thing better. J. W. CALDER Calder & PRESCRIPTION S. E, Cor. Seventh and Sa Free Prompt Delivery Phone Main 3992 CALDER F. C.
