MANAGER BROWN OF THE STLDORADO GOLD STAR MINING COMPANY EQUAL TO ALL EMERGENCIES When it comes to making things happen, the directors and the manager of the above company are equal to all emergencies and the work of this company is going forward by bounds, the treating companies and smelters are making strenuous efforts to handle the output from these properties, under the direction of Manager, S. J. Brown, things at these properties are going forward and nothing seems in the way of the ultimate success of the same. Not long since the people who used to do the light hauling for the company sought to put their rates high. The company promptly bought a brand new truck of their own. Their water for domestic purposes, which had been freely tendered them in the past was denied them, manager. Brown promptly put all hands at work for the development of water and, lo and behold, the result as that they not only found enough water for domestic use, but for commercial use as well, and now their neighbors cast envious eyes on the Dorado Company for their superbundance of water. In the meantime the great bodies of ore already in light is being made ready for shipment, and no doubt early spring and summer will be gala days for the El Dorado Gold Star Mining Company. ERFORMED PACT MADE WITH FAMOUS SINGER Those who attended Mime, Hughley's funeral on Saturday, February will never forget the tense scene when Prof. Wm. T. Wilkins played a musical number on his own grand piano as a part of the program of the funeral service, when he, overcome with grief, fell over on the keyboard of the instrument and was carved away. But it was with a heavy heart and sorrow that he fulfilled a act made with the noted singer Burger her lifetime, in which Mime Hughley about a year ago said to prof. Wilkins that she die first, he wanted him to arrange to play in its own way, and on his own piano. Flee as a Bird to the Mountains' a response Prof. Wilkins requested her that should he die first that he should sing this same song over its remains. Providence saw int to ad the earthly career of Mime Hughley first. Prof. Wilkins kept faith in its remarkable act and played this piece on his own piano, as mentioned above. N·ADDRESS ESPECIALLY TO WOMEN, MEN ALSO INVITED At People's Independent Church, Next Sunday at 3:30 P. M. Mrs. Alice Park of Palo Alto, Californian, who was speaker at the International Congress of Women at Sudupan in 1913, having been appointed delegate by the governor of his state, will deliver an address at the Independent Church next Sunday afternoon. She was one of the speakers of the historical Ford Peace Expedition in 1915-16, delivering addresses in three of the neutral countries visited, and lectured in many states after her return to America. An article on "Women Under California Laws," written duri ngthe California Suffrage campaign, has had a side circulation and has been imitied by other states. She took an active part in the recent suffrage victory in New York state, and was in progress when the Susan B. Anthony amendment passed the house, also The California Eagle when the dry amendment passed congress in December. Her subject next Sunday afternoon will be "Signs of the Times in New York and Washington." A special invitation is extended to all club women and to the four Red Cross auxiliaries to whom one-half of the silver offering will be divided. "I CAME FROM THE SOUTH AND IT'S IN THE BLOOD" Just a few days ago a man by the name of Spencer was being questioned as a prospective juror in the case of Marie Pinchon Edwards, now on trial for shooting Senator H Lyon. He claimed a sense of chivalry which would prevent his convicting a woman. "You don't speak like a southerner," protested the examining counsel. "Perhaps not, but I came from the South and it's in the blood," answered Mr. Spencer. Beneath these words rests a great truth. That truth is, "blood will tell." Say what you please, do what you please. "Murder will out." Here's a man who boastfully rejoices in the fact that his sense of chivalry is so keen that he can shut his eyes before the glare of truth, and steel his mind in the face of facts. "I would trample on justice, sidestep duty, disobey conscience, disregard the claims of right, because "I came from the South and it's in the blood." This is the meaning of such a statement. An awful confession. An enemy to the advance of civilization. A preventer of justice. Talk about the Hun who regards treaties as scraps of paper. Talk about Prussianism, which in the name of "Me and Gott" violates womanhood and scars humanity. Here lies the cause—a wilful turning and closing of the mind and eyes. Ask the Hun why he commits such nameless atrocities. "I'm from Germany and it's in the blood," would be a good answer. This accounts for Houston, Waco, Memphis and Dyersburg. This incubator brouth forth disirranchissement and jim crowism. Here lies the root of that segregation at the Capitol, where the voice of the Declaration of Independence was first heard. Here's the daddy of Ben Tillman, Spud Davis and Jim Vardaman. This is why a Negro officer cannot be saluted when dressed by Uncle Sam. "I came from the South, and it's in the blood." Why is it that loyal, patriotic and devoted people must suffer indignities indescribable? Why is it the offspring of Douglass and Washington must scale the rugged cliffs of misery while fighting for democracy? Why is it the heroes of San Juan Hill and the battle-scarred veterans of Carrizal singing "My Country 'Tis of Thee" with disquieting thoughts and disturbing realities? Why is it that Colonel Young, able and able for the tray, a brilliant record behind him, walks around an Ohio hamlet doing nothing and drawing full pay, when efficient officers are殴ed so badly? Why is it that twelve millions of people cry with united voices. "Let us make America safe for democracy, then the world," it came from the South, and it's in the blood." Far be from my mind to imply that this spirit, is all the South possesses. Some of the bluest and clearest blood we have dwell below the Mason and Dixon line. Some of the warmest and truest friends we possess live in the land of cotton, but unfortunately others live there, too. Fight on, noble sons, and stand the test. Ring true, broken hearts, and let the world hear your plaintive melody. Before arms are stacked, the Hunt driven chance, democracy gained, that cry will chance to "I came from America, and must treat my brother right." Until that time comes, let us march on with undamned courage, and shout in the language of our own poet: "You spend your time and talent In your efforts to degrade And belittle all the merit I have ever sought and made; But you cannot stop my struggle To be fair and square and true And prove to all my fellows That I'm made of honest blue." REV. B. C. ROBESON. POLITICAL POT PIE Sacramento, Feb. 14—Organization of a Stephens for Governor Club, marking the opening of the campaign of Governor William D. Stephens for election in November, was begun here San Diego, San Francisco and Oakland POOR ORIGINAL tonight at a preliminary meeting called by State Senator J. M. Inman and others who have interested themselves in the executive's candidacy. Announcement was made that similar steps toward organization were under way already in Los Angeles, San Jose and other places in the state. The Sacramento Club will promote the governor's caddiability throughout the northern counties. Senator Inman was chosen temporary chairman. "I am glad to have this opportunity to testify to the high esteem in which Governor Stephens is held by the people of Sacramento," said Senator human in his address. "I am glad to enlist in his campaign for election to the office of governor, and I am gratified that the response we have found among our people to the suggestion of giving his candidacy an early and enthusiastic impetus in this part of the state has been so hearty and spontaneous." "I speak as a loyal supporter of the principles of government that have been established in the last seven years under the leadership of Sacramento's most famous son—United States Senator Hiram W. Johnson. We speak tonight of the man Governor Johnson chose to succeed himself, and who has proved himself a faithful and worthy champion of those principles of government. "We are here to pledge our support to a man who has proved himself a strong and able administrator of the state's affairs. He has occupied the executive chair for almost a year and in the test he has measured up most favorably to all that could be desired under the high standard of public efficiency in this state. "A man to whose credit stands the project of land settlement under state aid, for which the site was chosen in Butte county a few days ago, is abreast of the best thought of the times. A man who witnessed the onslaught made in the legislature on civil service, as Governor Stephens did, certainly has the courage of his convictions. A man who will compel members of the legislature to cut down increases in their county government bills, as Governor Steuhlens did, thereby saving the taxpayers thousands of dollars, certainly has political courage. "When Governor Stephens pushed through the legislature the bill limiting annual increases in the county budgets to 5 per cent, he took a great constructive step toward the curtailment of public expenditures that is imperatively the need of the times. Give Governor Stephens the opportunity, and he will eliminate the overlapping and duplication of the state's business organization that was inevitable in the complete reconstruction of our government during the last few years. Governor Stephens has told me what is in his mind to do, and I can assure you that he will be responsive to the demand for a reduction in public outlay. "I am steeped in the established principles of government in this state, and all that Governor Johnson stood for, and I most emphatically declare that Governor Stephens is the one man and the only man upon whom we can safely concentrate if our purpose is that those principles shall endure. "I want to point out to you that the Democrats are not idle politically, despite the war. Their eyes are on 1920, with California first in their minds as regards the White House." "We are all Republicans now. No principles divide us into factions. Activities of government ever which we have disputed have by this time adjusted themselves. All that we had to fight so hard for has now been accepted by those that, did not believe as we did. Even the Los Angeles Times is today, frankly an approval of workmen's compensation. The great body of Republicans, I am sure, are ready for a reunited party, and for its success we are here tonight to urge-all to rally around William D. Stephens. "We give our wholehearted support to the president during the war. That we do is a triumph of the democracy for which blood is being shed on the battlefields. Just as President Wilson is consecrating himself to his task, so is Governor Stephens giving his utmost that California shall do her part in the great conflict. Our state already has a proud record. Governor Stephens has by his ability and his energy greatly helped to achieve that record. "As a war governor, William D. Stephens stands out as one of the most fearless, clearest-headed, loyal and far-searing governors in the Union. He has made California honored for its preparedness and patriotism. "The good sense of the people of our state has prevented any spirit of sectionalism between the north and south. Any suggestion of state division is greeted with schenior protest. Our people have not lost that good sense. The two United States senators are from the north. We, of the north, freely concede the governorship to the south. Anything else wouldn't be fair. "I am for Governor Stephens because I believe in him as a man; I am for him because he stands for the very best in the thought and activities of our times as regards public affairs. I am convinced that he is the one man who can surely lead us to victory in November. And I want, and you DIDO THE HERO Mastering his emotions and trying to hide the little tremor that was affecting his speech, Dido continued talking in tones soft and low: "At a short distance away to the east, there rises, in graceful pity, a white cross, marking out the spot from which an angry enraged lover hurled his sweetheart into the chasm below. With his brutal fingers clutching her slender neck, in his maddened effort to strangle her, while fierce convulsions shook her little frame, she was hurled from those high cliffs into the depths below, crushing out her life. As she was falling from cliff to cliff she was heard moaning a soil farewell. Her inarticulate goats co-mingled with the sound of the dashing water as it rushed onward into the recesses that had been made in the giant boulders." "And he killed her?" exclaimed the little lady. "Yes! her lifeless form was transported upon the waves and carried out to sea." "What of the brute?" interrogated the listener. "Bereit of mind, he wandered to and tro in the neighboring woods. The shades of night over took him. He perished." "And where is that place?" On where I that place. "On the wild New England shore; just about fifty miles from the center of gravity—Boston" "I hope, some day, to be able to visit the scene of that double tragedy, pathetically continued the lady." "I hope you will," said Dido. "Did you ever read a little poem that runs like this," she asked: "When this heart does cease all motion. And ye spread the sombre pall. Let me rest by grand old ocean Where the blue waves rise and fall; Where the wild birds ever floating, Sporting gaily kiss the wave, Where the deep-toned surf is sighing Nature's requiem or my grave." "No! I have not heard it before now. I know a little poent; it might interest you." Listen! "In seasons of great stress and strain, We sail earth's mart or ocean's main, With chart and compass guide our views. But never from nature take our clues; With human hopes on human bent, Life's ship itself will soon be sent into the fathomless depths below. There to await divine implore." "Hark!" she cried. "I hear a roaring." "We are in the danger zone," added Dido. "The noise that you hear is only waves being dashed upon the decks." "I can trust you," added the lady. "I believe you really know what you are saving." "Ha! Ha!" he said, while a smile playfully radiated his face. "I could tell you something else—if I dared." "Why say 'if I dared' Did I not hear Captain Jaunka call you a 'coward' the day I came aboard this steamer?" "Yes, Miss, you did." "Then must I too, call you a coward?" "No! Don't do it. Cowards die many times before their deaths. I've never had a resurrection." "Remember, young man, 'a cat has nine lives.'" "I know, Miss, but this is my first time on earth." "Then what is it you would have me know?" "I want to tell you how much I like you." "You like me?" said she. "I really think I could learn to love you. I know, I could, and because I like you I would not like to see you suffer, for as surely as my name is Dido and your—" "My name is Margaret, go on." "Yes, Miss, thank you, as surely as my name is Dido and your name is Miss Margaret—" "Never mind the 'Miss,' peremptorily added the lady. "Well, Margaret, unless something miraculous happens, we will be shipwrecked off the coast of Mackinaw Island. Unless your father goes into the pilot house and at the point of a revolver, forces this stubborn, old captain to return to Detroit, we must all be destroyed." "Why do you want my father to do it?" Aren't you a man? What woman would love a man who always sends some one else to perform his feats of heroism, to conquer his foes, to light his battles and win his laurels. Some there are who stay at home burdened by the luxury of their own effeminancy, too lazy to fight for their own freedom, too weak to breast the storm of oppression. If you want me to love you, if you want any woman to love you—be a hero." Rushing into her compartment she drew from her suitcase a revolver, which she handed to Dido. "Go!" she cried: "Now is the time to prove whether you are a man or a coward. Place this gun to the head of that captain and command him to return to the hort of Detroit at once." "What if he refuses?" queried Dido. "I—, I—" "I—I have spoken," said Margaret. "I am she who must not be denied. Go!" In the final glance which Dido directed over his let shoulder, he saw in the eyes of his imperial enchantress a peculiar admixture of fire and anger. Had he been able to read her heart there he would have learned love's soft confession. "Onward! "Away!" shouted Dido, leaping over three stairs at a time. Two minutes more and he would be standing at the wheel with expressed orders. Straightway Margaret entered her compartment. Thoughts were crowding in upon her thick and fast. "Just think," she said, "in this little time I've fallen—in love with that man. Of course he doesn't know it. What will my parents say? They will never consent to a marriage. Those old questions of society, inheritance, wealth, family tradition, and the like would bar me from him and debar him from the society of my family and friends. Fanny world this! Society insists that I marry a man of my social rank and standing. Can I disobey without punishment? I know that a wholly disproportionate value is set upon some social habits and customs which have found admission into the fabric of every community. The social sanction is one of the strongest in the series of moral sanctions: to defy this law is to transgress against public opinion—for after all, public opinion is the law. If Dido is my inferior socially, certainly he is not my inferior intellectually; spiritually, I believe he is his superior. If I marry him he must be raised to my social standing or the transaction saviors of social ocracism. Should we defy public opinion we will be forced to breast the storm of social oppression. I believe the law of nature is the law that should rule the universe, and as long as God legislates in His majestic way I shall be by his divine decree. My parents must be brought to see this proposition in its true light, for marry him—I will." "Hey there!" "What's going on around here?" "Where's that captain?" These and various other shouts were heard from the passengers who had been thrown from their beds, tossed against the walls of their state-rooms and some thrown headlong from their hammocks were looking for old Jaunka. "That that captain over board!" shouted one of the angry passengers. This lusty cry was mingled with the shouts and cries of women and children who could not even maintain their bounce in the places were they were standing. Confusion reigned supreme. Hundreds of passengers were scrambling for life preservers. Many, half clothed, had gone out upon the hurricane deck in a frantic effort to launch life boats, but fearing that they would be blown overboard lost no time returning midship. Not one of the crew was in sight. Every plunge seemed as though it were the last. Deeper, deeper became the furrows! Higher, higher dashed the waves! Louder, louder cracked the saging beams of the Juaniata. It was the women's woes and the children's woes that recalled Margaret to her senses. She started as though pushed by unseen hands. Straightway she fled to the pilot house. There she witnessed the scenes that startled her: Dido, the coward, was at the wheel. He was piloting the ship back into the port. Margaret returned to acquaint the horror-striken passengers with the news. "Calm your fears," she cried to the surging crowds, "there's a man at the helm. I say, there's a man at the helm. I saw the hand-to-hand fight between the Captain and the young man who is now at the wheel. On seeing the young man approach, the Captain raised the lever that had been placed in the pilot wheel, and, with bestial strength, delivered a blow upon his head. The young man seemed stunned to a few minutes. He fell upon the floor, turning from side to side and gasping for breath. I believed him to be dead. The old Captain returned again to the wheel. I lost no time in gaining my room and taking my bottle of smelling salts rushed to aid the young man. After a few inhalations of the ammonium compound, the young man began breathing freely. I wanted to bring him in out of the cold, but his body was so heavy that I could not budge with it. For some seconds I stood in a maze, wondering what could be done. Suddenly he began raising himself upon his elbows. He stared around wildly, gaining his footing and with itself stealth, moved onward until he reached the door of the pilot house. And what do you think happened? With his herculean strength returning he seized the old man around the waist, brought him out upon the deck and tied him to the flag pole then the young man statified himself at the helm and began to change the direction of our ship. I could not resist any longer. I felt so proud of his efforts. I went into the pilot house to cheer and comfort him. Not more than five minutes had elapsed when we discovered that Jaunka had loosed himself and with the same pistol that I had given to the young man and which had been lost in the first struggle. Jaunka now held to Dido's head, demanding that he leave the pilot house. We left the pilot house. Dido seemed nonplussed. His splendid wits of which he had been bereft were gradually returning. As suddenly and as swiftly as a boreal light dies through the air, Dido darted away leaving me in my quandary. In a few minutes later he returned with a Winchester rifle, the magazine or which was loaded to the breach. Out again he darted for the pilot house. THE PEOPLE'S PORUM FOR UPLIFT ALL MEN UP NO MAN DOWN NUMBER 2 I followed closely behind him. Dark presentments, began clouding my brow. Dido was about to fire upon the old Captain when a few hurried words, rather a welcome to death than a plea for mercy, told Dido that the end was near. The gun dropped from his hands. Dido lifted the frozen form of Jaunka from the wheel to which he held with a death grip. It was with great difficulty that he released the great icicles that had bound him to the pilot-wheel. "Three cheers for Miss Margaret," shouted the crowd. "Hurrah for the little heroine," yelled a voice among them. "Who is the young man that outwitted the old sea captain and saved the lives of three hundred and fifty passengers," asked Mr. Bradshaw. "His name is Dido," replied Margaret. "This young man sat up all night keeping watch over the sleeping passengers of this steamer. He is so thoroughly acquainted with the evil ways of Captain Jaunka, that he suspicioned last night that Jaunka would attempt to steal out of the harbor without word or warning. He shadowed the Captain in the early part of the evening and kept the lone vigil till the wee hours of night." "I heard the Captain call the young man a coward because he refused to raise the anchor in face of the storm," said Mr. Bradshaw. "Ah! Here he comes now," exclaimed one of the passengers. Amid cheers, salutes and hurrahs Dido strode forward until he reached the place were surged the anxious crowd. They showered him with hugs and kisses and hand shakes. "Hail the hero of Erie," shrieked a "Hail the hero of Erie," shrieked a voice from the rear. "All hail," shouted the crowd. "Where is the Captain," inquired Mr. Bradshaw. "Sir, he is dead," was Dido's reply. "Dead," whispered the passengers' one to the other. "Yes," continued Dido. "In two pitched battles old Jaunka foiled me. When I reached the pilot house the third and last time, he was shivering and shaking like a leaf in gale. I was about to shoot him, but a few short words told me the battle was over. On his face the pallor of death had started. I lifted the dying man from the wheel. His body was covered with ice. I placed him in a nearby chair, and hoping to save the lives of the passengers on board, I at once began heading the ship portward. As he sat there freezing I heard his say: 'Yes, I promised if I lost my money I would sail. I lost it.' I said I would scale the watery heights of Old Huron or die in the attempt. I failed so die I must.' I then saw him draw a knife from his pocket and before I could interfere, he had opened a vein in his left arm." (To be continued) DR. R. N. ARTHURTON FOR ING TO THE FRONT AS ONE OF THE LEADING PHYSICIANS AND SURGEONS OF THE WEST The clientage of Dr. R. N.

SUNDAY AT THE FORUM The Forum on last Sunday was the scene of a crowded house gathered to observe "Lincoln and Douglass Day" under the auspices of the Southern Division of the Women's Federated Clubs. The program presented "was highly creditable and interesting to the highest degree, consisting of an address on "Lincoln and Douglass," by the managing editor of this paper, musical numbers and readings, and an "Interpretation of "Dunbar" by Prof. Charles Alexander of the Citizens Advocate. Mrs. L. V. Stewart acted as mistress of ceremonies, and filled that position with the highest credit. Next Sunday the Forum will have "Field Day," and no doubt much pent up oratory will come forth.

AME ZION— The Lord is my light and my salvation, whom shall I fear?" were the words of the text last Sunday morning. The necessity of inspiration and strength following trust in God, were the lessons deduced. Said the preacher: "The world, flesh and devil, which are our enemies, may hurt their thunderbolts, seek to retard our progress and blast our lives, but if we will follow the light afforded by Jesus our Redeemer, victory will be ours." An effort was launched to make an assault upon the mortgage on the church, and the members and friends responded by subscribing $212. Zion is marching on Tomorrow will be another day of rejoicing.

Hayes Recital, assisted by Wesley Chapel's splendid choir, people began to gather to secure good seats. In spite of the rain fully 600 people assembled, many of whom came through the blinding storm. The singing of the choir was unusually good, considering the short time for preparation. Mr. Hayes' was at his best and charmed the vast audience with his rich, perfect voice and still richer soul. Mr. Hayes' mother, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Hayes, Captain McKinney and his brother, one of the few colored members of the aviation corps, were introduced to the audience. Prof. Fred M. Roberts was called upon to tell what the white musicians of the city thought of Mr. Hayes, and in his always pleasing and attractive manner, he told of how Mr. Hayes was considered among the best without regard to race.

CALIFORNIA EAGLE TELL THE CAUSE OF GREAT MIGRATION South Likened to Lower Regions Blacks in Constant Dread. That conditions affecting the race in some parts of the South are almost intolerable, is expressed in a letter written by a minister to Dean William Pickens of Morgan College recently. The minister, whose name is held for his own safety, declares that "whipping has become a past time, and Negroes are compelled to steal away in the night if it became known they were leaving for the North." The letter, which is printed below, gives the real cause for the great migration towards the North by hundreds of thousands of black men who are anxious that they may enjoy "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." The letter follows: Dear Sir:—Believing that you might get our many persecutious and inhuman treatment in some reputable newspaper, where such can be seen by the public, I give you some of the few happenings over in the Delta, where so many of the Negroes are leaving and others want to leave. When I say "want to leave," I mean to say no end of . the big landlords shut down their gins as early as Dec. 15, and up to this date have refused to gin the whole crop of cotton, as they well knew the Negroes were preparing to bid Mississippi farewell. Being a minister and an insurance man my work carries me far and near, and I have seen more punishment heaped upon my people than ever before in my life. As for crops—they are simply taken from them at prices to suit the white landlord. If he wants to allow a Negro from 15 to 20 cents, why, that is all there is to it. It matters not if the Negro can ship his cotton and get 40 or 50 cents for it; it matters not if the cotton is raised on the landlord's place. This kind of treatment is given the Negro, both in Arkansas and Mississippi in the Delta part of each state. In a number of instances, the landlord just says to "John." "I will allow you $60 $75 for your bale of cotton," and settles the matter. Yet John is damped to death, but is afraid to say a word for his own protection. So, in order to hamper the Negro, all kinds of deceptions are practiced to keep him him on the Delta farms, in many instances by judges, sheriffs, justices of the peace and every kind of state officer. The hone dry law is a new leader for further inhuman treatment of the Negroes, as well as untold humiliations. In company with a number of other preachers I came up from Leland to Cleveland, Miss., a few nights ago, arriving there about 2 a.m. and had to wait till 4.30 for another train. While we were waiting (there were about 45 in the party) two white men came in posing as officers, flourishing revolvers and kicking our grips over and over, and using all kinds of oaths and making threats. Finally a grip was found with some liquor in it (no one in our party owned it). They carried it outside the depot, drank the liquor and threw the suitcase and its contents on the ground. The came back and cursed the whole crowd.

At Holywoods, Miss., a few weeks ago, the white doctor at that place killed a leading colored man for merely disputing a small account. He was shot three times in the back and after he had fallen the agent battered his head with an ax-handle. This was done in front of a large store owned by the high sheriff of the county (Tunica). In no end of places in the delta the ordinary laborer must run away at night if it is known he is going to stay away. Whipping Negroes has gotten to be a mere pastime. I was down in Mound Bayou a few days ago and was told that a white bully is the person of one Jim Thomas had just been to Mound Bayou from Merigold, Miss., and had occasion to be at the store of one L. Brooks and wanted to call up long distance, and when told by the operator that such calls must be at the exchange unless sanctioned by the owner of the local telephone, he went over to the exchange—pulling out his gun put it in the face of the operator, telling him to put in that call, telling him that he had a great notion to blow out his brains. I was further told that such men as Charles Banks and others were standing outside the office and heard all this going on, but they knew they were powerless. My dear sir, I see nothing for our race to do but leave this part of the country. I see nothing but slavery for us. Our treatment should be made known to the world. What I have tried to say is but a bubble—and yet with all of this kind of treatment, some of our would-be leaders are telling us to stay here!

How many of us have written letters to the President asking clemency for the five members of the 24th Regiment whose fate is now before him for review? The call of our Government for the conservation of our food supply has met with a hearty response from this people and they will ever continue to do everything within the ir power to bring victory for our arms. The drive by The Eagle to interest the people in the movement of becoming real producers instead of consumers, is meeting with a hearty response from all sections, and we feel elated over the encouragement we have received to continue on in the work. The court martial at Fort Sam Houston, seems tous, would indeed do the country a great service to finish up the trial of the soldiers and keep the tight tension of so many people off that unpleasant incident. Sure justice has been meted out with more than 40 serving life sentences, 13 hanged, five under sentence of death and a score of others serving lesser sentences. A few days ago much prominence was given in the daily press to the efforts of some of the white people, headed by a New York capitalist, to procure and colonize some of the fertile lands of Lower California. No white man said "Nay"; but they hailed it with a hearty acclaim. But poor Sambo, when his brother spoke of the same thing, hiked into print and to the Department of Justice and sought to have his brother put in jail! Can you beat it? The signs of the time: along the line of becoming real producers are bright, with the good news filtering in from the Eldorado Mining complexes, and the prospects for the acquisition of the fertile lands of the Imperial Valley, as well as the lands in Lower California, there is no good reason why we should not soon hold up our heads and be able to promote big things in this section. Three lynchings and burnings, in succession, by the Southern barbararian in the Southland in less than that number of weeks, again causes a sadness to prevail with t en million loyal citizens, who cannot see why such must be endured. But t, we say, do not become discouraged; let us do our utmost for a real democracy and to beat down the enemies of our country, and returning from this mighty viety, it can be demanded that this butchery and savagery shall cease, and that this people who gave their live's blood for democracy for the world, will give it that all may, in our own bailiwick, enjoy real democracy. ROLL CALL. ROLL CALL. Now The Eagle is preparing roll call on our leaders to see who of them practice what they preach, by supporting the live and progressive business meh of the race who are really striving to put forth creditable business concerns. The professional business man must answer roll call; the preacher, the business men themselves, and then the laymen. We must first call roll on the leaders and get a base to start from. Now, who can qualify? Central avenue has shoe stores, dry goods stores, tailor shops, drug stores, real estate firms, cigar dealers, etc., all of them live ones, who present their wares through advertisements in this and other papers. They guarantee their goods, at the same or cheaper prices than you get up town, and why there should be any question of securing the support of this people we cannot see. Anyhow, the ROLL CALL will come forth that all may see first who is who in building up our own mercantile establishments in our midst. --- THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE Real EstateBargains FOR SALE—W. 35th St. 0-room modern, $1700.00.
