JUDGE LANGDON HIGHLY COMMENDED
Former Chief Justice, F. M. Angellotti: Judge Langdon is one of the ablest jurists we have in California."
Former Associate Justice Max C. Aloas: "Judge Langdon has an integrity and a capacity that makes him stand out as one of the best judges
JUDGE WM. H. H. HUTTON
we have in our higher courts. It is to be hoped that California will not fail to avail itself of the opportunity of placing so valuable a man on the Supreme bench."
Superior Judge J. C. Needham, successor to Judge Langdon on the Superior Court bench in Stansilas County, and former member of Congress, representing a district in which San Diego once was included: "I strongly favor Judge William H. Langdon for promotion to the Supreme Court. His ability, integrity experience and especially his aptitude for dispatch of work, will make him an ideal member of our highest court."
Mayor James Rolph, Jr., of San Francisco: "It is encouraging that a man and jurist of Judge Langdon's character and ability will seek a place on the Supreme bench. He is exceptionally fitted for higher judicial responsibilities."
R. M. Fitzgerald of Oakland, one of the leaders of the California Bar: "Judge Langdon has in unusual degree the true judicial temperament which may be relied on at all time to do fair and impartial justice."
Judge Langdon was formally received by adjournment of the Superior Court in San Diego, Monday and introduced by the judges to the two score attorneys before the bar. In one of the courtrooms, an attorney, an ex-judge, six feet four inches tall, with a foot resting on a chair, was arguing as Judge Langdon entered, "You reminded me of Abraham Lincoln, and I am sorry to have interrupted your address," said the judge "I am from Sangamon County in Illinois," replied the attorney proudly. "My father left there in 1856 when he came to California," replied Judge Langdon. An exchange of Lincoln stories followed. It developed that Judge Langdon's father, during his lifetime, was one of the corroborating authorities for the story of the farmer who at the White House thirty years afterward asked Lincoln what he did with a whetstone he used while scything hay for the farmer, and the President remembered placing it on top of a high gatepost, where it was found when the farmer returned home. Judge Langdon's father, in his youth, was a neighbor of the farmer who never gave up in his effort to recover a good whetstone, and had a letter from him telling of the White House incident.
Virginians Lynch Man
Wytheville, Va., Aug. 26—A, mob of masked men stormed the county jail here Sunday morning and shot to death Raymond Bird, held for an alleged attack on a white girl several months ago. The men are said to have got into the jail by calling the jailer out front and covering him with their shotguns. They then entered the prison and killed Bird in his cell, afterwards taking him out and hanging him to a tree.

BURON FITTS FOR
LIEUTENANT
GOVERNOR
The vigorous cuampaign being conducted for Buron Fitts, candidate for Lieutenant Governor of California, is one of the most inspirin gin the political history of the State. Active in every movement which has made for
BURON FITTS
the advancement of California, forward in every enterprise which stood for the betterment of the people Buron Fitts is, perhaps, the most widely-known and highly regarded man before the public today, locally. His Career as citizen and soldier has been watched closely and in no way has he ever failed to merit the love and confidence of those whom he has contacted, his ability as a lawyer is well established. His knowledge of the state of state is unquestioned. His splendid record made him a long experience in the district attorney office eminently qualifies him for leadership and no candidate now seeking our suffrage is more deserving our support.
In the long list of organizations indorsing the candidacy of Buron Fitts appear the names of virtually every patriotic body in the State and the names of hundreds of political and non-political groups identified with widely divergent interests. We are earnestly appealing to every voter who is standing for justice, equality and fair play to help nominate Buron Fitts by the handsomest majority ever accorded a candidate in California.

Beats Man Who Inquires About Colored Women
(By A. N. P.)
Los Angeles, Cal., Aug. 23:—An unknown white man was badly injured in an affray that occurred between him and a colored man on Sunday night last at the corner of 9th and Hemlock streets. Parties who witnessed the affair say it began when the white man asked the Negro about two colored women he had just escorted home from church. He was left bleeding and unconscious by the other combatant who escaped without anyone learning his identity.

France To Use Motion Pictures to Check Slavery and Cannibalism
(By A. N. P.)
Paris, France, Aug. 25.—A curious gathering has just been held in this city which brought together some of the great names of France, in the name of the committee whose work is the abolition of slavery, and which was founded by Georges Rosting, excommissioner of the merchant marine and colonial explorer.
Despite the general ignorance of Frenchmen and Europeans on slavery, there are slaves in many different parts of the world. In Africa, especially, the rival tribes capture the would-be martyr, the dying, and defeated, and make slaves of them. Slaves might be said to be the function of cannibalism there.
But the question has so far remained in the field of colonial history. The committee in France which has the subject at heart has abandoned impractical theories regarding it, and organized an expedition to Africa, which is to get busy within a few weeks. Its task will be to bring all documents and other information which will enable them to begin by the most practical immediate means the end of the present traffic in slaves. The aim is to create a powerful international public opinion on the subject.
In his book, "Towards the Nile," General Baratier has traced some atrocious pictures. He writes: "Dango is an important market, provisions abound there, except meats. Shphe are preciously kept in order to be exchanged for slaves who will be fattened and eaten, because human flesh is more savory." "To be exact, they breed human livestock. Further on, Baratier says: "The lot of a slave here is truly frightful. It is the cattle which is not eaten; the slave counts much less than a chicken and his death means nothing."
It is said that one of the daughters of the Duchess of Ulmengo was found dead at the home of a friend whose also had rhoe to seek the rumours of another friend who had been slain and also

MINISTERS' ALLIANCE ENDORSE TYLER
As the 73rd Assembly District fight draws to a close the nomination of Attorney Willis O. Tyler is conspired by all those conversant with district politics.
Attorney Tyler closes his campaign with the hearty approval of the interdenominational Ministerial Alliance of Los Angeles City. The approval of his candidacy was voted Monday morning, and all the ministers of the various denominations pledged themselves to urge his election at the polls, for the good of the group, and for recognition of the eminent ser-
vices Attorney Tyler has rendered the many pastors in litigation over property matter, as a shepherd at public meetings, and in interpartner churches, gaining refunds on tax assessments, etc.
Attorney Tyler goes to the polls with the endorsement of the Interdenominational Ministerial Alliance; Republican League of 312 Alexandra Hotel; the Central Labor Council of 540 South Maple Avenue; the Progressive Alliance of the City Club Building; the Women's Progressive Club; the Los Angeles City Council of the U. V. R.; the N. A. A. C. P.; the Women's Community League and the German-American Association, besides personal endorsements too numerous to publish, coming from friends in every walk of life, congratulating his mon the clean-cut manner in which he has made his campaign, based solely upon the vital issues now confronting the people of the district.
Attorney Tyler is thanking those who have interested themselves in his campaign, says he approaches t he coming Primary with a grave sense of the growing responsibility that now confronts the citizens of this community in the field of politics. Those now here, will be doubled in numbers in the next ten or fifteen years, and the one safeguard to the gate that opens into the economic, civil and political equalities of our city, in the ballot box. Everybody is urged to vote on August 31st, for candidates cannot be elected with god wishes, it takes the vote of every citizen in the district to decide who are to be the Party's standard bearers.
GIRL WAITS FOR HER ATTACKER
(By A. N. P.)
Memphis, Teen, Aug. 27—According to story printed in the commercial-Appeal of this city, Miss Bille Hollis, 19-year-old white girl, was criminally assaulted by two colored bandits who held her and her escort up at midnight. One of the men was large and the story tells how the girl is alleged to have waited for the second bandit while the first went to get him. Following the Appeal's description of the attack:
"Forcing the young woman to get out of the car, according to her story, and that of Richards, the big Negro handed his pistol to his companion and led her away. Returning to the car in a few minutes, Richards declared the big Negro took the gun and stood guard while the other Negro went where the girl had been taken.

Rev. L. B. Brown Tries To Pluck Eyes From Soaring Eagle
Stung to the quick by the publication of the article on the supposedly Negro Exposition( which in reality was nothing more than the cheapest of cheap Carnivals) in our last issue, anent the connection of one who styles himself as Fev. L. B. Brown, this self same "sky pilot" pounced upon the editor of this paper near Spring and Fourth streets last Monday morning to engage him in physical combat.
We are free to admit that the gentleman representing the cloth by his audacity caught us momentarily off our guard, got his fingers in our mouth, scratched our face and clawed at our eyes before we could turn on the power; and e.s a result of the assault we have had one blood-shot eye and some facial scratches for some days.
Further, we are sure that if there was one lingering doubt of the truthfulness of the story published, that doubt has now disappeared like the baseless fabric of a vision. For no man would, for one moment resort to taking the law into his own hands as this one, unless he had been stung. Lies don't hurt, but the truth, when it hits the mark, cuts not unlike a sabre.
This REVEREND GENTLEMAN used such profane language in threatening the life of the editor that we cannot, and would not, soil these pages by attempting even to abbreviate what he said.
We have a written statement from him since this incident, asking the editor to retract, that he has proof that we have wronged him.
What we want to say is, that we play no favorites and whenever he proves to us that we are wrong and he is right, we will be glad to retract, but until then there is nothing doing. The very fact, of course, right fight has been furnished in the acts which speak louder than words.
Treats don't scare this editor by a long shot, and as to the crust street fighting, we will leave that to the PARSON, with an abiding faith that we can defend ourselves at any stage of the game—if not attacked cowardly.
Even though we called a name in our article of last issue, we meant to be wholly impersonal; we ourselves count for nothing, our objective is to eternally put a stop to RACE EXPLOTATION and MISREPRESENTATION. We thought then, and think now, that the race was MISUSED in the premises spoken of and did not hesitate then, or even now, to denounce the procedure of the confessed head of the same.
We know that it makes the road hard for future efforts if it is true that the City Council finds out that it was imposed upon in putting up miles of decorations just for a CARNIVAL.
What we said about GAMBLING GAMES must have been true, for the place was RAIDED last Saturday, night and more than a score of arraignments were made; they plead GUILTY to conducting GAMBLING GAMES and were FINED.
The Negro Business League at its meeting on last Thursday evening passed drastic resolutions denouncing the misrepresentation and appointed a committee to wait upon the City Council, the Mayor, etc. The universal sentiment among real race leaders is that we have been HUM-BUGGED; we are still of the same opinion. Holding this opinion we cannot do otherwise than to keep hearing to line let the chips fall where they may. We are trying to be law abiding, and if wronged must look to the law. If we could be forced to desist in our onward course by assaults and threats on our personal self we would be unworthy indeed, to occupy the position we hold as Editor of "The Soaring Eagle."
The Yakoman, pushed by hunger, killed and stole a French adjutant. To do away with hunger in Africa is to lessen slavery.
The condition of M. Rosting, will penetrate to the heart of that frightful land, it will film, without a disturbing sensibility as to the cause, the worst scene in which they will assist this with moving pictures all ready obtained in expected to provoke a movement that will be epic in its proportions.
The trade possibilities between Liberia and American alpine and manufacturers are unlimited and most attractive. But in spite of the fact that (according to Professor Pittman) the Liberians are most anxious to establish a preferential trade with the United States, most every other white government of the world is represented and as yet very little trade with America has developed. American goods in large variety are much in demand and there seems to be no doubt that the Liberian Republic officially would welcome an expansion of trade with this country with especial reference to California grown and manufactured products. Not only does Liberia welcome American products, but she stands in need of the financial and moral encouragement and financial and moral encouragement and support which a closer relationship between the two nations should surely develop. As the case with any growing concern whether individual or governmental, capital is needed, is most welcome, and can be assured of Protection. Professor Pittman has brought a challenge to the commercial enterprise of the United States to come and trade for and develop the great natural wealth of Liberia under the auspices which are favorable as any other on earth.
In view of the foregoing trade resume it is especially creditable to Afro-Americans in general and to the organizers and sponsors of the Liberian Transportation S. S. and Excelsior Mining Company in particular that this company takes the initiative in establishing direct trade relations between Liberia and the United States through the port of Los Angeles. Like pioneers in other fields who have nothing to start with but a vision, a dream, and an unalterable purpose, the above company has had difficulties to overcome and skepticism to combat. But gradually the vision has been vitalized into actuality until now they have a modern steel freight and passenger ship under contract of purchase due to sail in the near future with cargo and passengers to Monrovia and Harper, Cape Palmas, the latter being the headquarters for the company's large agricultural, mining and industrial holdings. In addition to a general shipping and trading business with Liberia this company plans to develop and market the great natural resources on and in its immense land grant which extends from the Atlantic coast beyond into the interior for
many miles covering practically every sort of natural wealth and topography of the Republic from the rich coastal agricultural belt where rubber, coffee, etc. can be produced in abundance, to the uplands where mineral wealth abounds. It does not require a great deal of imagination for one to estimate the prosperity that will accrue from the commerce indicated and from the development of land which is so richly endowed with the natural products which the world cannot do without. Nor is it difficult to imagine the added stimulous which will result to the manufacturers of this section of the United States and to the prestige of this port through the establishment of a direct line to West Africa and Liberia.
In addition to the direct development of its own holdings the company will do all in its power to encourage colonization by all who desire to live in a land of actual as well as theoretical freedom and where the rewards of labor are so large and certain. Setters and home builders are most welcome to Liberia. The Liberian government not only welcomes new setters and builders but Professor Pittman is authority for the statement that as good agricultural land as there is in the whole continent of Africa may be had in fee ownership for a comparatively trifling cost and for practically any purpose, from the warm lands where tropical products can be grown in abundance to the cool and rolling uplands where live stock thrive in rich and unlimited pasture. Nor are the opportunities limited to those who wish to engage in agriculture. Monrovia, the capital, is destined to become a stimulating and modern city to become the stimuli of the country's new commercial life; the villages thriving towns and parts. There are opportunities for all the trades and professions that pertain to such a development of urban life. The Liberian Transportation S. and Excelior Mining Company will most heartily co-operate with hives who desire to establish new hives and new homes, and comparatively low rates can be obtained by prospective homekeepers and professionals the initial trip of the CHIAPAS which will sail in September. The ship now is docked at pier 87 near the P. E. depot, San Pedro, where those interested are welcome and where they may secure information from the office aboard the boat. The company is disposing of only enough of its stock to the public to finance the sailing of the CHIAPAS and the opportunity of sharing in the wealth of the company's shipping development activities is a limited one which is rapidly being taken advantage of.
This in brief, is an outfit of the "Cruise of the Chipunx." She will sail back toward the trade of the race laden with merchandise, settlers for HOME, and the heartfelt prayers and good wishes of millions of Afro-Americans whether in the pastoral sections of the South or the leaming cities of the North. This will be a precious cargo she will carry out from the port of Los Angeles, taking on another precious cargo of merchandise and good will from Liberia on her return. The Little Republic located on the great continent of Africa at a point nearest the Americas, too proud to ask for the friendship and support she so richly deserves, is

MRS. DAYAGE HONORED .AT
BEAUTIFUL LUNCHCREON
Of the number of attractive affairs given in honor of Mrs. Davage, wife of Dr. M. S. Davage of Clarke University, Atlanta, Ga., by Angelenos during their stay of several weeks in Southern, Calif., the seven-season luncheon arranged by Mrs. A. E. Duncan at her beautiful and epacious residence, 1308 West 35th street last Saturday, was one of the most elaborate. The house was profusely decorated with flowers and greenery and the table showed the work of an artistic hand, while the exquisite lighting effect added the final touch of consummation to a scene of unusual beauty. The guests were ladies only whose gorgeous gowns lent a picturesque animation that is rarely seen. Those present were: Mrs. Mathew S. Davage and sister, Miss Hattie Davage; Mmes, Jenkins, Harris; Naify, Wiltz, Willis, Hopgood, Roan, Everett, Wicks and the hostess, Mrs. Duncan.
A delightful afternoon was spent exchanging compliments with the honoree. Music and kodaking were also pleasant features of the evening. Mrs. Duncan, whose amiable personality is unsurpassed, proved herself a charming hostess. She was ably assisted by Mrs. Story. Prof J. P. Brawley, son of Mrs. Duncan and Dean of Clarke University, the only male present, performed the duties of "waiter" very efficiently. He was also ably assisted by Mrs. Story, sister-in-law of Mrs. Duncan. The guests departed with the pleasures of the evening stamped indelibly upon their memories.

NE PLUS ULTRA ART CLUB
One of the warmest affairs of this season was a winnie bake given by the Ne Plus Ultra Art Club at Huntington Palisades on Friday, August 18, 1926.
The guests met and left from the home of Miss Dorothy Johnston at 1418 Hooper Ave, arriving at the beach about 9:30 P. M. The fire was started and the dogs began to bark. The guests enjoyed themselves by eating buns, winnie, pickle, mustard, roasting marshmellows and drinking lemonade until 12 P. M. at that time the party went wading. The guests reported that they had never spent a pleasanter evening. There were forty present. The chaperones were: Mrs. Allen, Mrs. Perdue and Mrs. Webb.
The Ne Plus Ultra Art Club gave a winnie bake at Huntington Palisades on Friday evening, August 13, 1926. Hot dogs, mustard, pickles, buns, marshmellows and lemonade kept the guests busy until 12. At 12 the guests went wading. At 12:30 the guests departed declaring that they had never had a more wonderful time.
JOLLY ANGELENOS
Mr. Randolph Solomon, widely known among the ladies of the social set as the shiek of sheiks was the host to the Jolly Angeloses Social Club on the evening of August 12. It was another case so having too much fun, the kind that will remain within the minds of those present for years to come. Mr. Solomon always puts forth his best effort when it comes to entertaining the Jolly Angeloses. Mrs. Lenard Howard, another prominent man of the social set was enrolled in this wonderful society to assist us in carrying on the spirit of California pleasure. On the following evening, August 13th a birthday party was given by Miss Wills Jones at her residence, the club responded with tokens of birthday remembrances, and also to say goodbye to the hostess before she departs for the East.
The Butterfly Girls's Social Club entertained Wilkie Lynne Olympic Athletic Club at a ballet lounge. August 18th at the home of one of its members and according to all reports, everybody had an unimaginable time. Some folk even joked about going home. The fact that there was a lapse for every lady might not have had anything to do with that, but then again it might have. Each gallant athlete had the pleasant duty of serving and the pleasant privilege of serving with the social butterfly) whose name he drew by chance) and it did not happen.
Susie Stearns of the Wilshire Olympics treated the party to a hit of real athletic entertainment doing the old time buck-and-wing and Charleston; and Thelma Porter, of the Butterfly Girls seremedi the members of the mans-club individually, thereby provoking most comical exhibitions of infatuation or regret. Henty estate plenty room, plenty music furnished by Haven Johnson and cards for those who wanted them. That is how things were.
THE BACHELOR GIRLS CLUB
By: M. H.
The Bachelor Girls are at last to be recognized as being among the moneyed clubs of the city. At the last meeting, held at the home of Miss Mary Earles of Council street, the club voted to raise the weekly dues and joining fees, which will automatically increase the treasure.
If you didn't attend the KID PARTY given by the Bachelor Girl on last Friday evening, then ask your best friend all about it for he was there and had a jolly good time. Did your favorite Bachelor Girl invite you to the next Monday evening club meeting? If she didn't then you will be old at the home of Miss Louise Alexander is social. So long, see you there.
GOLDEN STATE CLUB
The Golden State Club held their weekly meeting at their new hall, 4821 Compton Avenue, The day night, August 19, 1926. This meeting was of a business nature and plans were talked on about their school opening dance to be given at Eagle Hall September 10, 1926. This dance promises to attract the largest crowd ever to attend a dance in Los Angeles.
Saturday night, August 21, 1926,
the members went on a trip to Ocean
Park, about 16 members enjoyed this
event. About twelve or one o'clock
luncheon was served and the special
dessert was watermelon. Our vice-
President, Warren Brown, murdered
many slices. The party returned home
at $:30 A. M.
James Garcia, our trap-drummer,
says he has found out why girls like
to book at the moon. ((There is a man

Don't forget to attend our school
opening dance at Eagle Hall.
We the members of Douglas Temple, 1434 E. 21st St. take this opportunity to correct the article which appeared in last week's issue, as regards the meeting held in the above named Church, Sunday, August 15th. The occasion of which Governor Richardson and Mrs. Mary L. Bethune were our honored guests. Let me say that Mr. Sanders, nor Mr. Alberger, were in any way responsible for the arrangements of this meeting. The arrangement of the above stated meeting and all other meetings held in Douglas Temple is the work of our very efficient Chairman of Suffrage and Civic Committee, Mrs. A. E. Walker, to whom all credit is due. (Signed). G. W. SHIELDS, Pastor.

DENTIST SLAIN
(Bv A N P)
New Orleans, La., Aug. 25.—James McCoy, well-known dentist, was shot and instantly killed by Toby, Turner, who is now in jail charged with murder. It is said that McCoy, while under the influence of liquor went to the home of his wife, Rhoda McCoy, who had been separated from him for the past six months and demanded her return. On refusal he struck her with his fist. Her screams brought Turner to her assistance, who shot McCoy four times. Turner claims self-defense, as it is said McCoy made a motion as if to draw a gun.
Hanged For Assault
New Orleans, La., Aug. 24—Willie Johnson was hanged at the parish prison Friday, being found guilty of a charge of criminal assault on a white woman 62 years old. Johnson, a few weeks ago, escaped from prison but was recaptured as he climbed down she wall.

NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION REPORTS GREAT SESSION AT PHILADELPHIA
Philadelphia, Pa., (Special)—After having deliberated for three days, the National Negro Press Association adjourned in this city Saturday noon. Chicago will entertain them February 10, 11, 12, 1927. Benjamin Jefferson was elected President. The Constitution as amended so as to admit Periodicals, Newspapers, and Magazines, these to be represented at the Association by properly-accredited messengers from the various publications.
An "Address to the Country" was delivered, full of pep, making certain specific requests of the American people, setting forth grievances that were not shadows, and at the same time, complimenting the American people for certain adjustments of wrings that had hitherto existed.
Two women were added to the official family. Many social courtesies were shown by the Philadelphia people. The Sesquil-Centennial officers were hosts to the quill-pushers during their session. Philadelphia gave one reception and one public meeting. The dean or nester of journalism was a conspicuous figure throughout the week. Twenty-one accomplishments presented by the secretary of the Association as the work of the organization, were plainly set forth and clearly demonstrated.
The following are the officers for the new year: Benl J. Davis, Atlanta, Ga., President; Robet, J. Nelson, Washington, D. C., First Vice-President; Jos. B. Basa, Los Angeles, Cal., Second Vice-President; Henry Allen Boyd, Nashville, Penn, Cor. Secretary; I. Willis Col. Louisville, Ky, Rec Secretary; Mrs. A. E. Tittle, Nashville, Tenn., Asst. T. Rec Secretary; E. Washington Rhodes, Philadelphia, Pa., Treasurer, J. M. Chisum, Chicago, Ill., Field Secretary; J. E. Mitchell, St. Louis, Mo., Chairman Executive Committee; Miss Jeanneette Carter, Washington, D. C., Auditor

But Madam Sul-Te-Wan was not destined to remain in obscurity. Her popularity as a little actress soon spread abroad.
In her own estimation, her one and only handicap was her name and after she had successfully filled several vaudeville acts in her own town, and state, calls began to come in from other sections of the country.
But Madam Sul-te-Wan was no longer looked upon as the vivacious little black, beauty about the place, she was waxing rapidly into woman-lod along with being the stage scream of her section, the little lady was the center of attraction for all the young men in the community who were seeking wives of fortune and fame.

THE SUMMER COLD
__ This affection. is very prevalent
| just now and it, manifests itself in
| many different ways. A large numi-
|ber have cold in. their throats, ton:
|silitis, pharyugitis and other local aft
fections with others the lungs are af-
fected and heavy deep chest colds de}
velop. Still others are attacked in
the eovering of the lungs, thus caus:
ine a severe pleurisy. Many of these
deep seated colds are-leaving perma,
‘nent sequellar which are serious. |
HOW TO PREVENT COLDS |
‘The prevention of colds is met
‘easier than their,.cure. Many ani
| many a case of tuéreulosis has start-
‘ed from one severe cold. For this
|reason it behooves us ‘to consider
carefully the prevention of every res-
| piratory ‘and tonsilar disease.
|" A few rules carefully adhered to
| will inerease the body’s resistance and
[greatly decrease the probability of
taking colds.
1 "You perspiré more freely in the
summer. Dried perspiration clogs the
pores and decreases your elimination.
| Very frequent bathing is necessary to
prevent this condition. At least one
bath a day for the whole body is nee-
essary in hot weather in order to keep
the eliminating properties of the skin
fin 290° condition. »
| 2.°The bowels must move every
day freely. This thould be, regulat-
led by diet. If you do not have natur-
al movements go to a reliable doctor
‘and find qat why you suffer from con-
stivation.” Just this may save your
llife for it is hard to contract any dis-
‘ease when the bowels move freely,
thus carrying off poison.
3. The kidneys must be flushed well.
Poisons store up in the - liver, kid-
-neys, spleen and bladder are reab-
‘Sorbed and poison the body. ‘This can
be prevented by drinking copiously
‘of water or fruit joices between
‘meals. Water is shes and drinking
it freely saves many doctor’s bills.
Ov" What we eat makes us, weaker
or stronger. More suseeptable to
‘colds or less:so. No one should eat
heavy foods ig hot weather. One pork
‘dinner may be your ruination. If
ryou value your life during this hot
weather stay absolutely away from
all parts of the hog.
| 5. In-door life breeds) colds. Get
out-doors as much as possible. Leave
off night life. Live out-doors,

“JYES’ TELL EM
WES ‘RISIN’”
\(For the Associated “Negro Press)
| About two generations ago a little
[bright-eyed ‘black boy, named RR.
Wright, was a student in the early
grades of Atlanta University. A nor-
therm white visitor who was speaking
[to the school Audience asked what
‘message he should carry back to the
friends in te north who were support-
jing the institution. The ambitious
little black child, with the smile on
jhis face which has been characteristic
‘of him for 50 years since, held up his
hand and shouted out of his soul:
‘Jes’ tell em we's risin’!”
: That ‘was a true word and a pro-
‘phecy. This human being has been
rising ever since, and his race has ris-
jen with him. He became a teacher, a
jleader of his people and of his state,
president of the Georgia ‘State Col-
lege for Negroes,—and after doing
about all that any black man would be
permitted to do in Georgia, he had
[sense and grit enough to move away
‘to Philadelphia, Pa, where the im-
‘provement over Georgia civilization
‘would permit him to do a bit more.
‘Today he is founder, and president of
‘the Citizens and Southern) Bank-and
‘Trust Company at 19th and South
Streets, and his institution is desig-
nated as a “City Depository.”
‘This is the kind of black man who
will ‘ultimately confound any effort to
‘keep black people in an inferior stat-

Attack Negro Homes In
(By A. N. P.)
Chieago, Aug. .24.—Homes of Ne-
groes in the Maxwell Street District
‘on the West side of Chicago were the
objects of attacks by white residents
Wednesday night. Police say that the
whites were angered when Negroes
encroached beyond a line which the
whites had agreed among themselves
was far enough for the colored citiz-
ens to go. An automobile belonging
to a colored man, Robert Woodman,
was destroyed, and flaming rag-wrap-
ped bricks were thrown through the
windows of the home of George Wil-
liams, a blind veteran of the World
War. One girl was seriously hurt.
Firemen extinguished the flames and
police retsored order, guards being
placed around several houses occupied
yy Negroes.
‘The Maxwell Street district is of-
ten referred to as “The Ghetto.” It
is very thickly populated with Jewish
tradesmen, and poor foreigners. Tt

into the district, most of the incoming
from the south. It was there that
William Bell was lynched three years

‘Chicazo, Aug. 25—Frank Keenan,
White, a veteran actor, starred in
the play “Black Velvet,” has turned
over to postal authorities, a letter
threatening him with death if he does
not leave town immediately and close
up his play. Inclosed in the letter to
Keenan was a clipping, praising the
actor’s work in “Black Velvet,” but
condemning the play. The letter pur-
ported to express the view of “28,500
Negroes” and warned Keenan that he
would be shot on sight. He has hir-
ed several detectives to guard him.
Last week the Chicago Defender
and the Chicago Whip both directed
attacks against the play “Black Vel-
vet,” holding that it was an insult to
the Negro race worse than the “Birth
of a Nation.” The attack of the Whiv
was especially spirited, but gave due
credit to Keenan’s work as an actor.

Three Clean Cut Issues—only three--have a bearing upon theelection of 2 Governor for the State of California.
Clever Politicians have attempted to befag these issues by bunlding up smoke screens to draw the public’s at-

1 Economy and Efficiency
; Should.we have four more years of economical, Efficient, Sane, Constructive State Government or
revert to the old spoils system with reckless waste of public funds? ~ ae ,
Governor Richardson-has made good his campattgn pledges of economy and efficiency. He has sup-
ported Civil Service, appointed the highesttype of judges, retained only competent employees,
_ without regard to polities. Administration of corrective and humanitarian institutions has been
improved, and. corrupt campaign practices have been abolished.
2 LaW and Order |
Shall we continue a regime of law and order in ‘California, punishing adequately all guilty or be
governed by sob-sisters, sentimentalists, Reds, enemiss of Americanism, gunmen and bootleggers?
Slane a a m | a
-G nor Richardson has increased respect of California by enforcement of law and support of
1 mstitution. He issues no pardons on account of popular clamor. | He enforees convicts’ sen-
te . Educational expenditures have incteased 58.3 per cent during his administration.

Fearless, unswétving in duty, and independent, Governugr Richardson stands for every possible

RE-ELECT
Shortridge
UNITED STATES
Senator
"It has been said that American citizenship is a BADGE OF HONOR. It is my hope and desire that it shall be a SHIELD OF PROTECTION to the citizens of every race and color."---Senator Shortridge in presenting the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill to the Senate.
The Hon. JAMES WELDON JOHNSON, National Executive Secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., under date of March 10, 1926, wrote as follows: "Senator Shortridge did all he could when the (Dyer Anti-Lynching) Bill was up in the Senate. However, he did not get the support that he was entitled to."
Hon. Walter L. Cohen, Controller of Customs at the Port of New Orleans, La., whose appointment was contested by Southern Senators for more than a year, says: "Senator Shortridge's earnest support of me for confirmation as Controller of Customs at New Orleans, in the face of the opposition of the two Senators from my State who resorted to the long established custom of the United States Senate to recognize the "Personal Objection" of a Senator, has placed me under much obligation to him. His record on the Anti-Lynching Bill should cause every member of our Race to give him their support."
Prof. Kelly Miller-ex-Dean of Howard Univer sity, the man on the watchtower, always observing the attitude and conduct of the legislators who meet at the National Capitol, and scrutinizing every race measure coming under their consideration, writes: "I have been especially interested in his (Shortridge's) attitude on human rights as they relate to the Colored Race, and have found that he stands firm where many of our be lieved friends are inclined to deviate and to Dodge. The management of the Dyer Bill in the Senate was well placed upon the willing shoulders of Senator Short ridge, while the Republican Veterans shirked the responsibility. It is well known here that the party leaders were playing a cheap game of politics with a great moral measure. But not so with Senator Shortridge. He fought for the success of the measure with all of the honesty and ardor of his nature, while other Republic ans contrived with the Democrats to encompass its defeat."
Attorney E. Burton Ceruti-Of Los Angeles, ardent advocate of human rights, says: "With the possible exception of California, Senator Shortridge is recognized in every State of the Union as our authorized spokesman in the Senate, and the outstanding champion of Negro rights at the Capitol."

Dr. John Willis Baer, former president of Occidental College issued a formal appeal this week to all Republicans in the Ninth Congressional District, urging that they unite on Harold B. Landreth of Pasadena for representative in Congress.
"Landreth is a straightforward Republican who will support the Administration," Dr. Baer declared. "Because he is a Republican he is an advocate of an adequate protective tariff on all California products. He has been an advocate of the idea of the Colorado river since the first time the project is presented to a state Legislon when Lanier a member of the resolutions committee that urged the project.
"He is unequivocal for the upholding of the 18th Amendment and Volstead Act. He has a personal as well as general interest in mountain development, fire prevention and flood control. Landreth is the only man in the Ninth District race who has the courage, the friend-making qualities, the ability, and the backing to unite all shades of opinion within the party, and put an end to bickering and controversy. Landreth is the only Republican in the race to our best the Democrat, Charles H. Randall, in the final election."

POLITICAL DIGEST
ELECT JUDGE MYRON WESTOVER
NOW JUDGE of the MUNICIPAL COURT, LOS ANGELES
--TO BE--
HE IS ENDORSED BY—Los Angeles Bar Association, Los Angeles County Council, Veterans of the Republic, Los Angeles Civic League, Municipal League, Westlake Republican Club, American Patriotic League, Republican Protective League and other organizations, and by such leading citizens throughout the County as Wm. Mulholland, Dr. Robt. A. Millikan, Mrs. E. K. Foster, Dr. R. B. Von KleinSmid, Mrs. D. G. Stephens, H. O'Melveney, Mrs. J. F. Sartori, E. W. Britt, Joseph Scott, P. E. Hatch, H. P. Barbour, Dr. Jno Willis Baer, Dr. Walter F Dexter, Dr. Remsen D Bird, and many others.
Reports from every section of California indicate that Judge Jesse W. Curtis, Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of California and candidate to succeed himself at the primaries will receive the largest poll of Negro votes than any of the other candidates running for the Supreme Court Bench.
This indication was made public today by H. E. Mutzchler, secretary of the Curtis Campaign Committee after tabulations of the colored voters had been submitted by estimators. Although there was no official stamps on this estimation the hearty letters and other forms of endorsements being received daily at the Curtis Headquarters from prominent Negroes throughout California point to a sweeping majority in his favor.
Judge Curtis is well known to the California colored people in general and to the Southland Negroes in particular. His high integrity and unbiased decisions on the bench have made him a favorite with the Negroes in every section of California.
Only recently a large and enthusiastic demonstration was given in behalf of the Justice when he visited the Southland for the first time since taking the cath of office recently. Many of the most prominent clergymen, lawyers, doctors and other professional Negroes in the Southland have announced their intentions of supporting Justice Curtis at the primaries the 31st inst.
PRATT OPPOSES THE BUILDING OF SAN GABRIEL DAM
"I am opposed to the construction of San Gabriel Dam, because the City of Los Angeles is receiving no direct benefit, will pay 70 per cent of the $35,000,000 cost of construction. I feel that the entire Flood Control Program of Los Angeles County should be reviewed at once by competent outside engineers, and that, the County should aid in the construction of those major storm drain projects within the City, that handle County flood control water."
This is the statement of Alvaro Pratt, candidate for Supervisor from the Third District. "I feel," he continued, "that if the City of Los Angeles is to spend any such high sum as this Flood Control Dam would involve, that the money would be far better applied to the construction of streets and the maintenance of existing traffic throughfares to relieve the terrible conflagration that is holding up the growth and affecting the prosperity of the City of Los Angeles."

ceives Endorsement of Many Organi-izations:
Judge Myror ... toow Municipal Judge and running for the Superior Court, long term, has been the fortunate recipient not only of the endorsement of the Central Labor Council, but the Bar Association have also added their approval by placing his name among one of the three whom they have chosen as the last plebecite.
The Westlake Republican League, the United Veterans, and the Municipal League and Civic League are a few of the other organizations who have added their stamp of approval to one of California's ablest jurists. Byron Westover, who is graduate of the Michigan University, Law Department, and former member of the U. S. C. College of Law faculty, received the highest grade in the Civil Service examination for County Council under the new County Charter. In 1515 he was made trial deputy City Attorney and advisory to the Board of Education, Police, Fire and other agencies. He has been doing judicial work, conducting hearings and writing decisions for the Railroad Commission in Public Utility matters all over the State. In February of this year, he was appointed by the Governor as Municipal Judge, after receiving the highest average on the questionnaire sent by the Chief Executive to a selected list of attorneys.
Judge Westover's campaign committee consists of over 300 prominent citizens under the leadership of Mrs. George Veach Wright, Executive Secretary. Dr. Von Kleinsmid of the University of Southern California, Dr. Walter Walters, Ramses D. Bilir, Dr. George F. Bowie, Mt. and Mrs. P. P. Noel, head the very unusual list.

This district comprises the entire city of Watts, South of North Boundary lines. Our voters will make no error in voting for Mr. Brown. He lives in Compton, all the other candidates hall from Los Beach which has had the Assemblyman for many years. It is fair and just to elect Brown. He is the very best vote for the people who read these lines; we ask for him, your earnest consideration. In fact he is the most logical person to merit your support for Assemblyman from this district.

Charles H. V. Lewis
Whose record in the Legislature shows him to stand for the Wage Earner, the home owner, rights of women and ALL the people, not a FEW greedy exploiters.
Senator Lewis believes that GOOD WAGES make a prosperous nation. He has always been for the high Boulder Dam, All-American Canal at Metropolitan water and power hill. He returns you to such well-known citizens as Dr. Gen. Taylor, Dr. Sonoma Bill, C. C. Blint, Win Boone, A. J. Haynes.
Senator Lewis was born and raised a REPUBLICAN, but is NOT a YES MAN, and takes no orders
from another source.
Judge Walton J. Wod was the first poor man's lawyer. In 1914, he established the office of Public Defender in Los Angeles, the first in the United States. His duties were to protect the poor and defenseless, and so well did I serve in this capacity that the people elected him Judge of the Superior Court.
The work of Judge Woods on the Superior Court Bench has always shown a great carefulness on his part in protecting the rights of the weak, against the strong. Many colored people have litigated cases in his Court, and have always had decisions based upon their merits, and for this reason, he is highly recommended to the voters for the August Primary.

Tuesday night at 7:00 o'clock will bring to a close in some respects the most remarkable primary campaign ever heed within the confines of the State. It has been so from the fact that for the major offices to be chosen that the contenders have not even had what is known as an organized effort behind them.
To select a candidate in the primary is personal to the candidate or in other words, it is a contest between factions. In this contest the factions have failed to perform as of yore. They have fallen short on even getting out propaganda to state their case.
This paper, as a rule, opens its columns for the various candidates or factions to state their case to just whatever extent they desire measured by inches in advertising space. But in so far as the major offices are concerned there has not been any great demand for inches. Therefore being not in a position to donate ourselves no matter how much we would desire to do so, we had at no time an opportunity to call a tune. If we called a tune we certainly would have had to pay the fiddler for doing so. Therefore the columns of this paper have been wide open to all to state their case without running into counter editorials.
In the gubernatorial contest, personally, we have well defied ideas and pronounced opinion and regret very much the fact that for a newspaper man, the exigencies of the situation forbade our active participation via are newspaper route.
Men and measures, however, should at all times receive the serious thought and consideration of the people and summing up the accomplishments and what the various nominees stand for. It is easy indeed to make up the mind as to the candidate of your choice.
This is the voting that makes good governments worth while, when citizens study men and measures for themselves and likewise form their choice without waiting to be told how to vote or following blindly the dictation of others.

This call is to advise friends and supporters of Judge Stephens that the only danger to the campaign committee's plan for primary election is over-confidence and every friend must work for the judge steadily from now on until the primaries.

If You Fail To Read The CALIFORNIA EAGLE You May Never Know It Happened
Arthur S. Bent, president of the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce, in a statement issued yesterday, drew attention to the rapid rate at which this city's water and power requirements are increasing, and strongly urged that the people authorise the proposed water and power bonds at the August 31st primary election as the only means of developing additional water and power resources and facilities now needed by industries and homes in this area.
Mr. Bent pointed out that both the Water Bureau and the Power Bureau are self-sustaining municipal utilities and will meet all interest and principal charges on the bonds from their own earnings, without any cost whatever to the taxpayers.
"Both the $10,000,00 water bond issue and the $11,000,00 power bond issue have been approved and endorsed by the Board of Directors of the Chamber of Commerce," stated Mr. Bent. "This endorsement was given after a careful and detailed study of the needs of the City with regard to additional water and power supplies and facilities.
"Investment of bond money, from time to time, to help finance additional water and power supplies as required by the people of Los Angeles is essential to the progress and prosperity of our city. Such investments of bond money are an orderly and businesslike procedure in expanding the City's water and power systems, and developing additional supplies of these necessities, as required.
"The Board of Directors of the Chamber of Commerce, in endorsing the bond issues, feels, and I personally am convinced, that these bonds are necessary at this time; and the work thus to be financed should be carried forward without delay."
"Our City is in the business of supplying its citizens with water, power and light. If Los Angeles' increasing water, power and light requirements are to be met, and this city's continued expansion and prosperity thus supply water and power for the development of this vital resources through the issuance of bonds.
"Our Water Bureau and our Power Bureau are both self-supporting utilities. Therefore, it will cost the taxpayers nothing to approve the proposed water and power bonds. All charges on these bonds, as provided in our new City Charter, are paid from earnings of the Water and Power Bureau, and not from taxes." Mr. Bent is a member of Bent Brothers, Inc., a construction firm which recently completed the building of the Exchequer Dam on the Merced River in California. This dam, one of the largest water storage structures ever built in this state, has created a reservoir capable of storing 280,000 acre feet of water for the Merced Irrigation project.
Judge Stephens was elected at the primaries the last time he was candidate, scoring a three thousand majority over his nearest opponent. He has qualified his friends point out, by serving in every department of the Superior Court and his record has brought him recognition as one of the leading jurists of the state.
William T. Craig and Ida May Adams, two of the leading attorneys of Los Angeles are chairmen of his general campaign committee and his women's campaign committee, rectively. Raymond A. Nelson, campaign manager, declares that the entity will be fudge Stephens is county wide and that if all of the jurist's friends will go to the polls on election day, his re-election at the primaries is assured.
Among the endorsements received by Judge Stephens are: Bar Association; Blackstone Club; California Jewish Voice; Central Labor Council; City Attorneys' Association; Civic Endeavor Association; Colored Non-Partisan League; Figueroa Business Men's Association; Hoover Street Business Men's Association; Jugoslav Central League; Lorena Heights Club; Los Angeles County Council United Veterans of the Republic; Public Welfare League; Southwest Improvement Association; State Building' Trade Council; The Civic Federation of Los Angeles County; Twelfth District Civic League and by many political organizations.

Barnes For Supervisor
Endorsed By German-
American League
Representing a federation of thirty-eight German Societies with 40-registered voters in Los Angeles, the German-American League has given its endorsement to Councilman A. J. Barnes for Supervisor, 3rd District, according to a statement of his campaign committee.
Barnes supporters claim that despite the lateness of his entrance into the race, his candidacy is rapidly wod Republican Club, the following resolution was unanimously adopted endorsing Mr. Barnes:—
"It is most important to the citizens and taxpayers of this District to have a representative as Supervisor in whom we can place the fullest confidence as to honesty, integrity and ability. Therefore, be it Resolved, that this organization does hereby endorse the candidacy of A. J. Barnes for Supervisor, and be it further resolved that we do everything within our power to help in electing Mr. Barnes."
The Barnes sentiment on the East Side of the District is growing by leaps and bounds and a strong support is promised for his success.
she had listened attentively to his address.
The statement that Dr. Hudson dorse the Governor's candidacy after made, viz., that Mrs. Bethune praised the Governor for what he SHOULD HAVE DONE is not alone an INSULT to this leader of the Women's Federated Clubs of America, who in her absence from our community is without an opportunity to defend herself or reiterate the statements that she made on that occasion, but is also an insult to the intelligence of the leaders of the Women's Clubs of California and to those present on that occasion. There is no doubt but that the actions of Dr. Hudson will have a tendency to cement and unite the women, not alone of Los Angeles, but of the whole State, in carrying out the advice, and counsel given them by our most capable leader in America today.

BEATS CALLAH,
Packed from pit to dome and with
hundreds standing, Doyle’s -Vernor
Arena, scene of’ historic — battles
fought by the “Old Master”, saw his
name sake, Baby Joe Gans, uphold
the famous name.
‘Two colorful gladiators, both hard
hitters, both game and fast, there
was never a better picked match than
Mushy Callahan and Baby Joe: Gans.
But Callahan must have been over-
estimated for Gans out-fought, out-
generaled, and out-punched him ta'a
well earned decision. Gans was first
to enter the ring as thousands of fans
white and colored cheered wildly.
They were introduced, the gong
clanged and the fight began, And
boy! boy! what a scrap. Gans. led
janding two straight lefts and push-
ing the fight."Afver less than half a
minute rapid mixing, Callahan shot
2 hard right to Gans’ jaw.
The blow whirled Gans across the
ring and into the ropes. Groggy and
badly shaken. Callahan tried his best
to finch him but using his head, Gans
saved himself by clinching and cov-
ering till he could get his bearings,
and partly recover.
In the second he was more careful
and Callahan more confident, carry-
ing the fight to Gans, but Gans had
recovered and held him even.
In the third Mushy landed three
hari lefts t oGans’ wind but the game
little fighter took them all ‘and more
than out pointed him the round
through. as
In the fourth Gans came out like a
whirl wind chasing Mushy all over
the ritg knocking him half through
the ropes and staggering, Gans hit-
ting him with rights and lefts at will.
‘From then on Gans piled up his big
lead till the referee raised his hand
in the tenth, while the thousands of
fans'white "and colored yelled,
screamed and went wild long after.
ward. *
Central Avenue was crowder with
well wishers late in the night and. an’
impromptu dinner and reception was
hel when Gans ate his supper at the
Entertainers Cafe. 7
Matchmaker “Wad” Wadhams will
undoubtedly sign the battlers for a
return match. It's a cinch the” house
will be packed again. It was a whale
of a serap and there is no reason way
the rematch shouldn't be even more
exciting.

Frayo im the special event, | Joe
Schiocker, punching hard and ‘boxing
beautifully, copped the semi-wind-up

A few questions will make that

make him contract with Dempsey?
Has the commission ever had to order
Wills to set a date for a bout with
Dempsey? Has Wills ever forfeited

Dempsey?” Has any promoter ever
