Farmer for re-election to the City Council is the watchword of all who believe in a just reward for faithful and honest service. The people thought so well of his service that at the recent primaries they gave him the compliment of a record vote, and there is no reason why the same could not be duplicated at the polls on next Tuesday. As a matter of fact, the proper thing to do is to make it unanimous. Everybody vote for Bert Farmer and all will be well. —Advertisement— ```markdown ``` VOLUME 33 C. C. C.

He believes absolutely in fair play, and is opposed to any discrimination on account of race, creed, wealth or any other accidental condition. L. C. COSEY AT THE BAT For Snyder. Editor Eagle. Allow me through the column of the mighty Soaring Eagle to express my views on the pending mayoralty contest. "I believe in 'All men up and no man Down.' but under the present regime NO CHANCE exists for a man if he has a skin of the darker hue. in competitive examination I pased two examinations, was assigned to work but on reporting they saw my color and said nothing doing for you or any other colored man. The first was March 25, 1916, when certified to the Bureau of Power and Light; the second when certified as watchman in Fire Department. No Jim Crow Administration for yours truly. TOO MUCH TAXES NOW The man or woman who is a tax payer will think long and well before they vote to saddle another $13,000,000 bonds to further burden themselves as tax payers; therefore the bond issue is not receiving a heavy support and a general acclaim goes up to vote NO' on the Bonds. —Advertisement— W. J. SANBORN FOR COUNCIL MAN W. J. for 35 years a resident of Boyle Heights of this city is making a winning race for the City Council; he is well and most favorably known, having served as a Mail Carrier for 22 years in this city, and since that time has been connected with the Pierce Bros. Undertaking Company. He is a most affable gentleman and has the distinction of being on the ticket from the Eastern section of the city; by giving him your hearty support you will make no mistake. Hon. A. W. Sanborn, his brother, one of the finest gentlemen it has ever been the writer's lot to meet, is down shaking hands with his friends and saying a good word for his brother, he reports Jake Soreas and the Los Angeles boys at the Capitol City doing fine and pulling hard for Sanborn to win. —Advertisement— DEMOCRACY FILM COMPANY DRAWS ENORMOUS CROWD AS THE COMMENCE THE PHOTO PLAY—"INJUSTICE." Last Sunday a crowd of several thousand persons congregated from 10th and Central Ave. to 12th St., to watch the beginning of the great Photo Play "Injustice" for which the Democracy Film Company has been organized to produce. The military band was there.the soldiers, the principal characters and the immense crowd, Capt. Leslie Pacocke, the noted Photo Play writer and director with his corps of Camera men and assistants proceeded with the work which was realistic indeed. For three and a half hours the va- rious turns and evolutions were gone through for the movies. The directors of the Company were on hand and indeed it was a history making event. Right here at the seat of the moving picture industry this people were really qualifying on the 5th industry of this country. The work performed Sunday is only a beginning, as it is estimated it will take about six weeks to finish this great super-production. The rest of the work of making the picture will be at their studio near East Lake Park and even now the characters are of the same will double in value, daily at work at this place. In the meantime stock of the Company is being sold like hot cakes and it is only a short time until the price of the same will be double in value. ANOTHER TRIUMPH FOR DEMOCRACY FILM CO. One of our beloved "city mothers." Mrs. Wilhelmina Owen, widow of the late Police Commissioner Owen, who has always evinced a warm friendship and interest in the colored race, has consented, to take a prominent part in the production of "Injustice." She was out to the studio on Wednesday and rehearsed some scenes with the director, Captain Leslie T. Peacocke, who was immensely pleased with the tests he secured. Mrs. Owen will be the only real member of the white race who will take part in "Injustice," but her popularity will go far to secure its sale in numerous first-class picture theaters throughout the country. She readily evinced her faith in the financial success of the Democracy Film company by purchasing a substantial block of the capital stock of the company. She has assured Captain Peacocke that she will assist him and the members of the company in every way in her power to establish it as an industry that will be a permanent benefit to the colored citizens of Los Angeles. The public is cordially invited to see the making of the Democracy dinner-dance scene of its feature picture "Injustice," to be made at Dreamland Cafe Tuesday evening June 3, 1919. The camera will be shooting all evening. JOURNEE W. WHITE. General Manager.

CAMPAIGN NEARS CLOSE THEY ARE LINING UP AT THE POST AS RED HOT CAMPAIGN COMES TO AN END The hottest municipal campaign for many moons will culminate next Tuesday when the voters of Los Angeles will render their verdict at the ballet box. The past week has witnessed the greatest activity in the camps of both the Snyder and Woodman forces; A strong contrast of the twocamps two years ago insofar as the colored contingent is concerned is the change in forces. two years ago Mrs. Beatrice Thompson was a prominent worker in the Snyder camp, this time she is holding down a desk in the Woodman camp as a director of the work being done by the Colored women workers. C. Olivier a rabid Snyder worker two years ago and even in the recent primaries, is lined up and prominent in the Woodman camp, other runners up are J. W. Washington. Sherman Overton, E. L. Gaines of Pasadena, C. W. Wilson and others. E. T. Hubbard was lined up with the Woodman forces along with J. R. Manning but they quit cold and are now looking from afar. In the Snyder camp Mrs. Lucille Shelton holds down a desk and is directing the work among the women, while Jesse Lewis is a strong part of the working force. W. H. Sanders the old war horse is stirring up the animals all along the line for Snyder Sanders knows the game from A to Z and they must go some to head him off. And now we saw R. G. Lamar getting busy and that must be the Snyder way. The Citizens City and County, League is also reported as very busy for Snyder. Leading the Bally Ho men as spell binder for Woodman is the Hon. W. O. Tyler and a ex Lieut. from Overseas named Wm. Jackson, the end man is Lucas C. Luke. On the Snyder end is the Hon. E. Burton Ceruti and many volunteers who are making the welkin ring. THE NEGRO PRESS The EAGLE has been largely sought as an advertising medium by the Snyder forces and they have taken pains to play up their candidate big, with front page space. Our columns have been thrown wide open for all to enter who will, it being a non partisan campaign we have toed fair, and would not for one moment fall for that party bunk, that proaganda made us smile and become reminicent, and caused us to wonder why they did not push the party stuff with the same zeal when a president was at stake. No bro., the handkercheif is off our head as well as the scales from our eyes; therefore we have kept in the middle of the road. The New Age played "Almost but not Quite" attitude and if you can tell what that is you have the stand of that paper it up for Snyder, giving him editorial endorsement, but ended up like the Indian looking for a dog fall, and wobled along, to us it looked like "Man afraid of his horse:" And in this situation at this writing is the status of the big contest for next Tuesday: FOR CITY ATTORNEY Henry N James has the call and is receiving a magnificent support and in his case it will be "He who laughs last, laughs best" We are playing him to win. Vote for James, he is the Peoples' Man—the one best Bet for City Attorney. Be sure and vote for him. FOR THE CITY COUNCIL Sanborn is running strong, also Conrad, Braunton, Farmer—most all the old Council will win out, the Betterment Association ticket Blowed Up, they are asking for a Search Warrant as it is reported in the Lost, Strayed or Stolen Column.

DIES. The far famed Madame C J. Walker the foremost beauty Culturer in the world passed away last Sunday at the $250. 000.00 residence adjoining the Rockfeller estate on the Hudson. Mme. Walker was one of the most active as well as successful business women of her time-race prejudice and discrimination were not impediments in the road that led to fortune for her. She surmounted every diffic THE PEOPLE'S FORUM FOR UPLIFT. ALL MEN UP NO MAN DOWN NUMBER 16 Tuesday ORNEY culty, after discovering one of the greatest preparations for the cultivation and growth of the hair, and beautifying of the skin she crested her own factory which is a many thousand dollar establishment at Indianapolis Indiana. But fame and fortune amounts to little unless one has in group with which he or she is identified and this Mme. Walker has been. The typical colored sister was turned out of her 250 year's schooling in the debasing tactics of slavery with no idea of physical beauty for herself, but Madam Walker taught her that appearance ment something at least, and the crude colored Sister, with Mme. Walker's preparation taking the lead with Poro, Kashmire Black and White and numerous other local preparations now, on the market is turning this crude creature into a thing of beauty. Y. W. C. A. CENTER THROWS OPEN ITS DOORS The history of this wonderful addition to the life and happiness of this community reads like fiction for this is the story: Little less than a year ago a young girl we knew came into our office, and asked our opinion concerning a Y. W. C. A. for Colored girls. Probably we would have paid little attention to the girl, but so serious was the little Miss that she forced our attention, and the unstinted support of our newspaper in her effort. She likewise soon got the ear of the Y. W. organization for white girls in this community, and with the formation of a Y. W. Club of about 20 on 25 girls the work was begun—So rapid was its growth under the enthusiastic leadership of founder, Miss Idell Albritton, that the promoters of the white branch decided to secure the service of a Secretary for their colored sisters, and forthwith sent to Brooklyn, N. Y., for Miss Ethel Caution, who since coming into our midst, and taking up the vein has driven the proposition to ultimate success to the end that last Sunday and Monday was opening day for the pretty cozy little center at 1108 E. 12th St., as a place of recreation, and amusement for colored girls that can be found in any city, and thanks and praise, to its founder, Miss Idel Albritton and co-workers this work goes on.

Our Sunday School was fully attended and interest still keeps up. The lesson on repentance, growing out of Jonan's visit to Nineveh, was heartily discussed by all the teachers. At the close, the pastor addressed the children on the importance of early decision for Christ. The week of special service provided increased spiritual interest in the entire Sunday services. The help of Revs. Hopper, Anderson, Bean, Ramsey and Tillman was highly appreciated. These brothers are all invited to come again. This week the Rev. A. D. Chandler has charge and received the hearty co-operation of the Revs. Lightner and Dr. Taylor. The meetings are increasing in interest, and we hope for a mighty revival of the Master's work among us.

Three persons united with the church during the day. This Sunday will be up to the usual high standard. The pastor will preach a short communion sermon in the morning and will hold the annual Memorial service in honor of the members of the church who have died during the year at the evening service. Members of the families of the deceased are urged to be present. Weslev Chapel went "over the top" in the centenary drive just ended. The magnificent sum of four thousand dollars, given by a white friend to be credited to our church, made it possible for us, along with the rest, to report our quota raised in full. Members of the great M. E. Church everywhere are proud of the fact that they belong to the church which has done the biggest thing ever done in a financial way by any church in all the history of the world. FIRST A. M. E. CHURCH NOTES—Rev. Robert House and his progressive congregation of Second A. M. E. Church joined in union services with the mother church this past Lord's Day, and a thoroughly edifying service was enjoyed by the large crowd at the morning worship. A spiritual feast was the usual treat in Rev. House's message, and then a financial effort to assist in a forthcoming mortgage payment, due in October, was more than accomplished in this union meeting, over which both congregations are now rejoicing. The pastor preached at the evening services and the trustee offering for the day was good, while the music of both our choirs was very sweet and elicited unanimous praise. The first Sunday in June is Communion Day. Don't let your place be vacant at the Lord's Supper table. The pastor will preach morning and evening with services beginning promptly at 11 a.m. and 8 p.m. Both our choirs will sing. Everybody welcome. Be punctual to this Communion Day worship.

The interest manifested in the Sunday School is marvelous. Adults, as well as children, are attending in large numbers. The pastor's sermon in the morning was very helpful. His text was, "Jesus Healing Leprosy." This parable was beautifully illustrated. Those present could easily imagine they saw the picture of the ten miserable men spotted from their heads to their feet with the wretched postience of leprosy. "Master, true Son of David, have mercy on us." Jesus, through His grace, the heart of love told them to get up and walk. In obedience to the command, they were healed. If we would take Jesus at his word, we would be free from sin, well has the poet said. "Trust and obey." There is no other way to be happy. In the owing the pastor's text was, "Give account of the steward's ship, for there may no longer be a steward." This lessen reminded us that our lives are not our own, but belong to God, and we must give an account to God for our stewardship. Let us remember our Savior in all things and thank Him for our many blessings. It is said ingratitude is one of the greatest sins in life, therefore let us not be ungrateful.

SPECIAL TO THE CALIF. EAGLE Chicago, May 25.—Colonel Roscoe Coulkin Simmons, pride and idol of the "common people," had just returned to his Chicago office from his first "swing around the circle" since he got back from France. The Eagle correspondent asked him for a message that would interest his world of admirers on the Coast. "Statement," he asked. That was what your correspondent wanted, he was informed. "I will make a statement," said the leader of the stalwarts, "but I don't know what in the world I can say that would interest the people on the Coast any more than the people in Alabama. Whatever hits John hits Jim about the same time and in about the same way. What we have got to do is to convince the "upper crust" that he is in the same fix with the "under dog," and that all of us, west and east, north and south, will rise to our feet at the same time. "Dark days are before us, darker than we have known, but it will be a darkness that announces dawn, and not the darkness that announces the night. Travel and talking with men who have got their hands on the pulse of the world has taught me that the Negro will be compelled to set himself free. Nobody else has time to do that for him. And the Negro himself will be able to do it only by praying one prayer, joining on a common job and putting his hands down in his pockets. This is hard for the Negro, but if he loves his children he will do it. With us, it is not fish or cut bait, but fish and cut bait. "Our soldier boys are returning from the fields of France.

French, and there they were compelled to fight back the mad prejudice of their own countrymen, many of whom carried the poison of American prejudice into the heart of France. "The mercy of God again unfolded its power when the Democratic party was turned out of power after eight years of scandalous conduct without parallel in the history of organized government. If the Negro were now at the mercy of a Democratic Congress, why, it would take us another century really to get over the pain. The Republican party leaders in Congress are determined to look into the treatment of Negro soldiers. They are doing no big talking, but I think I am on good ground in saying that the party will again get behind the movement to stand the Negro on his feet. The party got a dose of Democratic hypocrisy, for that organization of political pirates were bent not merely on killing off the Negro but also on killing off the Republican party for enfranchising the Negro. "The chairman of the Republican party. Will H. Hays, is not only the abiest organizer in recent political history, but he is four square to the winds that blow on the Negro, whom he refuses to consider as a question, at all. At his suggestion, party leaders everywhere are planning to stand with the Negro in his fight for life, not only because the Negro is the only natural-born Republican in the country, but also because unless his citizenship is maintained, it is 'good bye' to the U. S. A.' :: Massey's S The Most Unique Beauty Pa Mme. J. M. Massey opened her Parlors at 1109 Central five 5 years ago.

C. A. SPEAR.....Managing Editor J. B. BASS.....Editor TUESDAY'S ELECTION The election Tuesday being a non-partisan one, there is no vital principle at stake along party lines, it is therefore a question fairly and squarely up to the people as to which candidate they will support, which will be for a better and greater Los Angeles. The Eagle has always stood out in front for a clean and progressive municipality, recognition and a square deal for all of its citizens, these are the big things which concern us in Tuesday's election. On this basis we urge the most serious consideration of our readers, be it known that we have risen from the small petty things in public life and take high ground for the greatest good for all the people. We are free to admit that in spite of our efforts for clean conditions in the past, matters went from bad to worse, and now, we certainly must not be despised when we maintain our stand for better moral conditions and recognition for all the people that go to make up the city. We are to decide between two men, M. P. Snyder and Mayor F. C. Woodman, their cause has been presented, their records like an open book are before you, and it is for the people to choose between them on next Tuesday. The people can always be trusted. City News SOCIETY ROBED OF ANOTHER BELLE A great drama which will no doubt be a surprise to many was enacted May 19th, at the parsonage of Rev. B. R. Guy of San Diego. The stars of the attail were Miss Melba Boswell of this city and Mr. Lewis E. Love on San Diego, and the title of the play was "Marriage" the happy newly weds spent their honeymoon at Del Coronado Beach. Mr. and Mrs. W. Sellers, newly- weds were the honored guests at a delightful spread given by Mrs. J. B. Bass at her home. $820½ Central Ave. Covers were laid for eight. The table was beautifully and beft- tingly decorated in pink ribbons and roses; having the bridal knot tied and streamers at the places of bride and groom. The delicacies of the occasion were delicious and rare. A very enjoyable evening was spent by all. Mrs. Bass proved to be a very charming hostess. Mrs. Sellers formerly Miss Beatrice Young is the niece of Mr. Bass. Mrs. G. J. Tolbert of San Francisco arrived in the city last Saturday night over the S. P. and is at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Easton. 3763 Hobart Blvd. Wille Easton, son of Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Easton, is now employed as a mechanic in one of the high class Auto Machinery houses of Seattle Washington. Lieut. Jornee White is now on the executive board of the Democracy Film Corporation and is General Manager. He considers that Captain Leslie T. Peacock's production, "Injustice," will be a tremendous thing for the colored Race. It will bring us to the front rank among the nations of our birth, and give us an industry here that will bring millions of dollars to those of our Race in Los Angeles. Lieut. White has purchased fifteen hundred dollars worth of stock in the Democracy Film Corporation, and is sincere in advising all those who know him to invest likewise, according to their means. He will be glad to meet and discuss the matter with all who might be interested, at his offices, 412-415 Germain Ridge, 224 South Spring street. The capital/stock is now $1 per share, and over half of the allotted amount has already been subscribed for. It will very shortly be raised to $2 per share. Lieut.

Every man and woman who has the interest of the Race at heart should get behind the Democracy Film Corporation and help to make its finest film producing company in the world. It can, and will, bedone. The slogan of the Democracy Film Corporation is, and forever will be, "Watch Us Grow." Among other important investors in the company are Chaplain W. W. E.

Darden, attorney for the Corporation, TRAGIC DEATH OF JIM EUROPE The news of the tragic death of James Reese (Jim) Europe at the hands of one of his band men has set the whole country mourning. It was one of the most magnificent, as well as one of the saddest and most impressive funerals funerals ever accorded a colored man. One company of the New 15th New York National Guard and about 40 men of the 269th Infantry (the Old 15th), all of whom wore decorations for gallantry on the battlefields of France; the Hiram Lodge of Masons, of which Jim was a member, and the Clof Club, which he organized, escorted the body to the church, accompanied by the Old 15th band, Jim's own band, draped instruments, and the New 15th band playing the funeral march. After the very impressive services, the body was taken to Washington, D. C., where it was interred with full military honors in the Arlington Soldiers' cemetery. Jim Europe was one of a family of musicians. His paternal grandparents, Judge and Serena Europe, were songsters of mean repute. His father, the late Henry J. Europe of Washington, D. C., and a Baptist minister, was a fine bass singer; his mother, Loraine Saxon Europe, in her early days was a fine performer on the piano, as was also his maternal aunt, the late Miss Lea Saxon. His two sisters, one of whom (Miss Mary L. Europe), is a music teacher in the public schools of Washington, D. C., at a salary of $200 per month, and also an organist for one of the churches in the same city, and the other sister, Mrs. Minnie Mayfield, and her daughter, Miss Lettice, both of Mobile, Alabama, are fine pianists, and also music teachers. His brother, John Henry Newton Europe, is also a well known pianist in New York and Boston. His paternal aunt Mrs. Mary Europe, is a pianist and violinist; also an instructor on both instruments. Of his consuls (the sons of Mrs. Jones), one, N. Palmer of New-York City, is a noted pianist, who plays wholly at the entertainments or parties given by millionaires; and Thomas Phillip, a violinist of Mobile, Alabama (now dead), and Caldwell H. Jones of Los Angeles, Cal., who is a violinist. Nathan T. Jones, a grandson of Mrs. M. E. Jones, pianist. James early in life displayed a decided taste for music, and would often be found at the piano trying out some melody of his own, but when old enough to be put at his lessons, did not like to practice, but his father, being very decided about his practicing, James soon became interested in his studies and rapidly improved. He was the author of many pieces that had a good run at one time. The whole family of Europes are natives of Mobile, Alabama, Jim's parents removed to Washington, D.C., when his children were small, their father having an appointment in the Civil Service.

FLEMING FREDERICK C ANGDON JOHN B. REEVES F. E. PURCELL FRED C. WHEELEER 1811 BELMAR PLACE BY JOHN A. GRAY The following clipping from "Musical America" may prove interesting to our readers: In an effort to introduce to Americans the native music of Porto Rico, Second Lieut. Carlos C. Valle, a musician of San Juan, Porto Rico, has just arrived in New York. During the war Valle recruited from the officers in Camp Las Casas, the officers' training camp, a band of 150 men, which won much praise for its excellent concerts. Admiral Grout, during his visit to the Island, said he had never heard a band play the "Marsailies" as did the Porto Ricans. Following the armistice, Band Leader Valle conducted a tour of the band throughout Porto Rico and hopes soon to bring sixty picked men of the organization for a tour through the United States. Before entering the army Valle was an instructor of agriculture in the University of Porto Rico, as well as the leader of the band and orchestra there. He is a graduate of Tuskegee University, which he attended from 1909-1913, having been sent there by a government scholarship. During the four years of his stay there he was one of the members of the Tuskegee band and was assistant to the conductor, Capt. N. Clark Smith. Just after leaving San Juan he received a letter offering him the leadership of the Municipal band in San Juan. One of the leading composers of Mexico is Carrillo; a full-blooded American Indian. He has paid New York several visits. One of the critics in "Musical America" gives this bit of satire on Georgia. He says: "Again we must marvel at the power of music. While the Metropolitan Opera was going on in Georgia not a lynching took place in that State. And one whole week!" The editor of the same periodical has this to say on the death of our beloved Lieut. James Reese, Europe. "A monument—not to McDowell—a band leader, who enjoyed the distinction of being the 'originator' of a kind of dance music, was killed by another Negro last week. Arrangements are now announced for a great public funeral in New York; some persons in Boston are agitating for a shaft in his honor; the metropolitan dailies are devoting columns of space to the life and career of their hero. Serious musicians need not be disheartened by this manifestation of the mob spirit in music. Theirs is thereward of posterity. The battle must be renewed with tenfold vigor!" A large chorus of Race singers, under Roy W. Tibbs, gave a fine program recently at Oberlin, Ohio. The press speaks in many words of praise concerning the affair, and it is said that the whole program was memorized. Lillian Evans Tibbs of Washington, D.C., was soloist. H. T. Burleigh gave a successful concert recently in Philadelphia. Pa. under the auspices of the Matinee Musical Club. Other events of note were the Afro-American Folk Song Singers of Washington, D.C., and a recital by Roland W. Hayes for the benefit of the Cheney Training School for Teachers.

Some one is planning to give a big ball on the 19th of June, under the name of the Texas Club. We are very much hurt over the matter and we want the public to know that we don't give balls. The Texas Social Club will give a grand-19th of June picnic at Mission Cliff Gardens on the 19th of June. All Churches, Sunday Schools, B. Y. P. U.K., Missionary Societies, all Clubs and Fraternal Orders are cordially invited to attend. Bring a big basket and come out and have a good time. The 4-C Whist Club gave a reception at Kastle Hall Wednesday evening, which will long be remembered by the social set. The Sunday School and B. Y. P. U. of the Mt. Zion Baptist Church will give a chitling supper Wednesday night, June 4th, at the residence of Mrs. C. E. Norwood, 3059 Martin Avenue. Everyone cordially invited to attend. The Friday Afternoon Club will present Mrs. Florence Hodge Price in Recital at Kastle Hall, June 12th. Mrs. Price is a contralto singer of marked ability, and everyone in San Diego should avail themselves of the opportunity of hearing her. The Recital is for the benefit of the Federation. Mrs. G. Hodge returned home on Tuesday evening from Elsinore Hot Springs, very much benefited by her trip. Rally at Mt. Zion Last Sunday. The services at Mt. Zion Sunday were atigh tide. The pastor, Rev. Burgess, simply announced a few Sundays ago that we would have a $2 rally on the fourth Sunday, and the members all came out willingly, and ready to help carry out the plans. The actual cash taken up was $43.50, and more than $10 was promised, to be brought in on next Sunday. Not only were we rallying financially, but also seeking for lost souls. In the morning service, Sister Parkwood joined the church, and at 6:30, during the B. Y. P. U. meeting, which was made very interesting, a young girl 17 years of age came forward as we sang, "Standing on the Promises of God," and gave the pastor her hand, and God her heart, and joined the church as a candidate for baptism. She will be baptised Sunday, June 5th, at the Mt. Zion Baptist Church. Church Announcements. Sunday services: Sunday School, 9:30, 10:45 a. m.; preaching, 11 a. m. and 8 p. m.; Allen Endcavor meeting. Wednesday 7:30 p. m. All are welcome. REV. E. R. GUY, Pastor. Mt.

As we haven't a hotel that will accommodate all, like the Hotel Del Coronado, which the white Federated Clubs used, we use this means to get public aid. JESSE LEWIS of M. P. Snyder for Mayor.

P. Snyder for Mayor. Mr. Lewis has been employed by Mr. Snyder for many years. He says that in the face of the known friendship of Mr. Snyder to the colored people, that it is a puzzle to him how many of them can afford to support the opposing candidate against him and points out the fact, and asks if they know: That the Woodman administration established Municipal Baths with Public Funds on public property; but colored children are only allowed at them one day in the week. Established Municipal Day Nursery with Public Funds on public property; But no colored children are allowed here at all. Created Board of City Mothers (all white) apparently colored children need no mothering. Has not made one single appointment of any colored citizen to any position since he has occupied that office. OLD TIMER BOOSTS SNYDER Jewis Lewis, 20 Years A Residen Allow some of your valuable space to briefly relate the reasons why our people should give to such a man as M. P. Snyder their hearty support: I feel qualified to do so from my long and intimate acquaintance, and moreover from the fact that I have lived in Los Angeles for the past 20 years, unlike others who neither live, vote or abide here, I am relating the same from personal touch and observation. The party question has only been injected to throw dust into the eyes of the unwary, common sense dictates that party politics is tabooed in municipal elections, and there is certainly something rotten in denmark when they seek to inject it in this campaign. I am a Republican, and would not think of supporting any other party when the principle of that party is at stake. When a boy at Washington, D. C., 55 years, ago, in those days there were no free schools, you had to pay for schooling. I went to John C. Cook's school on Capitol Hill, opposite the capitol, and when school was out I would go over to the Capitol and I heard Charles Summer's debate on the 'Civil Rights Bill. Had he lived that bill would have gcne through properly and our condition would have been much better than it is today. The nearest men like Lincoln and Sumner have been Roosevelt and Mckinley. Had this character of man lived this people would have been schooled as pro- --- Editor Cal. Eagle: educers, and therefore respected as absolutely sustaining ourselves. These sort of Republicans we can always back. In the present contest we must choose the man who has demonstrated that he will give us a man's chance. The only man who has done this is Meredith P. Snyder. He absolutely lives up to the theory of Roosevelt and stands for, "All men up and no Man down." His deeds of worth for this people and all, the humbler people are innumerable, no man who knows him, of his generous and heartfelt sympathy, would for one moment hesitate to support him. Coming here 20 years ago for my health I finally found myself at low ebb for funds and sought work. I went to Mayor Snyder, showed him LEWIS is pioneer citizen and strong supporter Lewis has been employed by Mr. Snyder known friendship of Mr. Snyder to the him how many of them can afford to stain him and points out the fact, and ion established Municipal Baths with but colored children are only allowed ery with Public Funds on public prop- owed here at all.

INSEMENT— my letters from New York, my last residence, he said, "Young man I will see that you are placed in some good family," such was the case. My first position in Los Angeles I owe to M. P. Snyder. Five years later I went into his employ. Most all of the old timers here know the story and that I have been enabled to help scores of people and have not hesitated to do so. These things have all been accomplished through the aid of M. P. Snyder and C. Wesley Roberts. To them I owe my success. Mr. Snyder was the first man to place colored men on the Fire Department, Police Force, and other positions in this city: contrast—How many has Mr. Woodman placed in any position since he has been mayor? These are facts known to every old colored resident of the city. Therefore, I cannot too strongly recommend that we should support the candidacy of M. P. Snyder who has really demonstrated that he is really and truly the friend of all the people. McKinley and Roosevelt are dead, why I say this—when Booker T. Washington was here when Mr. Snyder was mayor of Los Angeles, he called on Booker T. Washington at Bob Owen's residence and treated him with the same respect as Roosevelt did in Washington. At Mr. Snyder's home he treats his help as his family. They don't go our and buy second class food for their help and first class for themselves, he feeds them as he feeds himself. I have personally worked for some Republicans who have fed me very bad and I would ask the question "Who would ```markdown ``` THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE F. H. Crumbly F. H.

James Weldon-Johnson spoke before a large and appreciative audience on the 23rd inst. at Scottish Rite Auditorium. Beside the speaker of the evening, a creditable program was rendered by local talent. At the Presidio at San Francisco there has been quartered hundreds of Negro troops, who sailed on the 26th of this month for the Philippines to join the 9th Cavalry. They comprise men who but recently returned from France. On Saturday, the 24th, at Bethel A. M. E. Church, a reception was held in their honor, and nearly all of these famous boys turned out in a body, as well as hundreds of citizens for this gala occasion. A very pleasing program was rendered, after which an abundance of refreshments were served to these departing lads and their friends. The principal speaker of the evening was Lieut. A. P. Alberga, who revealed terrible truths about the horrible treatment accorded the 92nd Division while in France, and even on the last lap of their journey home, particularly that part of the Division who were mustered out in San Francisco. The vast assemblage listened with amazement a what is beyond a doubt the truth; for was it not spoken in the House of God? The revelations set forth in the Crisis this month were verified by the speaker, and is it any wonder that that magazine was held up in the mail? Is it any more than human that a government, as well as people, shy at the truth and will do their best to conceal facts from the public eye, when their shame is revealed? We have Race representatives going from city to city lecturing on the future of the Negro, etc. which is extremely commendable. But what would go far better with many of us, particularly these boys of ours who were subjected to cruelties and prejudices, would be indignation meetings, whereby demands and resolutions should be drawn up, to be sent to Congressmen and Senators demanding thatatan investigation be instituted as to who was responsible for this un-American-like treatment of its black fighters. They took our boys from their loved ones—they fought two battles, that of exterminating autocracy, and, worst of all, the American white man, who knows his black brother is a strong competitor for rights that are placed here by God Almighty for all to enjoy.

M. REYNOLDS Our Pasadena Correspondent. FAGE EIGHT On Thursday evening of last week, about seventy-five persons had been invited by Mrs. Ralph Troy to be at her home at 8:30 p. m., and at that time the house was about filled with merry friends. The occasion being the birthday of her husband, Mr. Ralph Troy, who at the hour mentioned was very busily engaged at the parsonage of the Friendship Baptist Church with his corps of Teachers canvasing the Sunday School lesson for the coming Sunday, and was far from suspecting what was in store for him, or what was taking place at his home on N. Orange Grove Ave. After a very satisfactory Teacher's meeting, Mr. Troy left feeling very good indeed and after having been taken for an auto ride by Mr. and Mrs. Oaks Morten, a further scheme to allow for the crowd to gather at the home, he was brought back home by Mr. and Mrs. Moten and on arriving found the house dark, he entered, inviting his friends who had just brought him home to come in and that he would make a light in a minute; but just as he reached for the bulb switch, someone else turned on the lights from the wall switch, and Mr. Troy stood with upraised arm hooking very foolish at the house full of people all around him. It was indeed a great surprise, but proved to be a very agreeable one. Mrs. Troy proved to be an agreeable Hostess and the big crowd left just as full of good cheer as they were when they came, having enjoyed a very delightful evening. Miss Helen Peavy is very ill at the home of her Aunt, Mrs. Richardson on Willard Place. She is suffering very great agony and is a very sick girl. Helen has many friends both of the younger and the older people who are praying and hoping for her speedy recovery. George Wilson, the brother of Mrs. Lydia Harris, on Wilson St., wrote a very interesting letter to some friend in Pomona from the U. S. Navy Dispensary at Bordeaux, France, where he was stationed at the time he wrote the letter. He gives some very interesting details of what he has seen and experienced while in France. Mr. Wilson chlisted in the Navy and has been away for quite a while. TheRev. R. N. Holt. Pastor of the St. Paul Baptist Church, Los Angeles, will preach for the W. H. and F. M. Society of the Friendship Baptist Church in Pasadena on Sunday afternoon at 3:00 o'clock. This being the regular monthly meeting of the Missionary Society, a full membership is desired, as well as full congregation of friends to hear this eminent divine. Quite a number of Pasadena people are attending the W. H. and F. M. Convention, and the Executive Board of the W. B. Association that is being held at the Pleasant Hill Baptist Church, on Westlake St. ALLENSWORTH. All aboard for Allensworth! This is the headline of the letter sent out from the offices of the executive committee of the California Baptist State Convention. The heading fittingly describes the situation in Allensworth at the present time. Plans are nearing completion, and the citizens are beginning to put on the finishing touches prior to the coming of the delegates and visitors. Already reservations are being made, and indications are that there will be as many visitors as messengers to the session. It is quite fitting that in this letter, which will probably be the last before the messengers begin to arrive, to give final instruction. Onarrival in Allenworth it is the plan of the committee to have members of the Glad-Hand Committee present to greet you. Should your arrival be so timed that none of the committee will be present, go to Hotel Allenworth and register. This is to visitor and messenger alike. The Housing Committee has reserved every available space, and will see to accommodation s for all. From the hotel assignments will be made. The dining room for the Convention will be opened at 8 a. m. Monday morning, June 9. Registered messengers will be accommodated for the week with meals on the payment of registration fee of $2. Others will be charged a very moderate sum per meal. Plans are made to hold the dining room open until Sunday evening, the 15th, if necessary. Persons coming to Allenworth from the South will find it convenient to leave over the Southern Pacific Sunday evening. The Santa Fe train leaves Bakersfield about 6:55 a.m., reaching here at 8:08 a.m. Persons leaving southern points in the morning will reach Bakersfield in the ```markdown ``` afternoon and will arrive in Allenworth overthe Santa Fe at 8:32 p. m. Persons coming from the northern part of the State can take the Santa Fe and come through the entire distance. Many may come by auto. From the north take the highway and turn west at the first crossing of the S. P. north of Earlimart. From the south take the highway and run west at the crossing just north of Earlimart. Mrs. N. E. Powell and children of Corcoran were visitors last Monday. Mrs. Powellis completing arrangements to occupy her cottage and entertain friends during the Convention. Judge Hindsman and Constable Archer were business swisitors in Visuala last week. Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Dotson and Missess Hyacinth Hicks and Nannle Archer motored to Fresno, remaining over until Sunday afternoon. Mrs. Mary Mobley was a Visalia visitor last Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. Abraham Stockett of San Francisco are expected home this week and will occupy their home here. OFFICE LIFE. Tragique and Comique. Whew! Well, we are still here, but it certainly was a narrow escape! Saturday afternoon he walked authoritatively in, cast a searching eye along the walls, over the machinery, a furtive glance at the printer, and I, sole keeper of the shop, felt shivers running over me. Down from the press I came humbly to bgg him to wait until the managing editor came back before he made his decision. Then gruffly, without any heed of my pleading spirit, he reached in his pocket and with, "Have you this week's issue?" relieved my spirits with a 5-cent piece. He did not come to buy us out, after all! There is a certain unit of the office that imagined itself of great importance, and always confidentially thought of itself as manager of the subscription department and society editor. It was a great take-back to that little ego then to come unwarily upon the staffs' discussion of it as the "Devil's Assistant," "Baby of the Shop" and "Black Theda Para." The managing editor gave her very first dinner party about three weeks age and invited the "society editor" for the sole purpose that there might be a brilliant write-up. The "society editor" went—enjoyed to the urmost the delicious dainties and the company of select society, then straight-way forgot it. The week's issue went forth without e'en a mention. Oh! gasped the managing editor, and my very first dinner party, too! It's too bad! drawled the "society editor," with a yawn, and missed the look of disgust and "never again" expression that came o'er the disappointed editor The Lino-operator and the "printer's devil" are contesting—for a crown? Surely, such spirited arguments could not pour, forth for less than a crown, or perhaps 'tis only a ladies' glove! The editor "has something up his sleeve"—at least that is the decision of the managing editor. He has really been a busy man this week; his appetite has taken wings, and always does his mind seem to be far away. It is not love! That has been decided upon by all. Then what is it? Watch next week's issue for developments. The President of the California Baptist Convention Speaks in the Interest of the Program Convention as Well. To whom it may concern, or to any person or persons interested in the State Convention or the program of the Convention, as the president of the Convention, Iwish that everybody who is interested in building up the cause of Christ through the Baptist denomination, to know that they are wanted in Allensworth, from June 9th to June 14th, attending the annual session of the Convention. Yet some of the leading pastors in both the Northern and the Southern part of the State, are not on the programs, as well as some of the missionaries, and other church workers. The reason why the names of some of the leading ministers were not put on the programs is that the Committee on Programs decided that every minister whose interest is in building up the cause of our Master will be present at the Convention anyway, name on the program or not; that the demand for real constructive work is Phone 20515 RENTALS Res. So. 3275-J REAL ESTATE AND INSURANCE WE MOVE YOU ALSO Clifford W. Brown, Mgr. J. Estella Brown, Sey. V. M. Cole, Treas. so much in demand, until every child of God whose name is among the leaders of the Baptist denomination, not because his or her name is on the program or not on it, but they will be there to do their bit, in laying plans for the building up of the cause of Christ, through our great denomination. Also the committee decided that some of the ministers' names that are not on the program this year, will be put on the program next year, and some of the names that are on the program this year will not be on them next year, and that every minister and delegate who attends the Convention will be placed on a committee; therefore, the minutes will tell who are there and what they did. So my dear brothers and sisters, meet me in Allensworth, Cal., on the above named date for the biggest Convention ever held in the State. Allensworth people are making the greatest plans to entertain the Convention that were ever made for any Convention in the State. Prof. W. A. Payne is secretary of the Committee on Arrangements. His record in the southern part of the State speaks for what he is doing for us in the north. Let us not disappoint the people of Allensworth. H. K. THOMAS.
