Alderman Fetzer honorably served as Assistant State's Attorney of Cook County from 1909 to 1917, and as such it was within his power to turn many kind acts or numerous good deeds for many colored men and women who had gotten into trouble on the North Side, and he was far above appealing to race prejudice in order to sway the jury so that he would be able to convict all the colored people he came in

For Tag Day for Heroes.
Alderman Fetzer at present is advocating a tag day for policemen and firemen.
"One of the first things that challenged my attention when I entered the council," said Alderman Fetzer, "was the low salaries paid to city employees, particularly policemen and firemen.
"I persistently fought for better salaries for city employees during my two terms in office as alderman. I worked hard as a member of the Finance Committee for better pay for city employees.
"During the consideration of the 1920 budget by the City Council I introduced an amendment increasing ward appropriations for ash and garbage removal to the extent of $800,000, which was passed."

Hon. Morris Eller Republican Sanitary Distr
All serious minded citizens of Cook County, who desire to see substantial progress and improvement made in all departments of local self-government as well as in the management of public property, are highly gratified at the results of the last September Republican primary. The tremendous vote of popular approval given to Mr. Morris Eller, the Republican nominee for Sanitary Board Trustee, places at the head of the three Republican candidates for this office, one whose record in public office makes him pre-eminently fit for any executive responsibility. His trustworthiness and keen sense of exactitude in serving the people, has always been the mainstay of his great popularity among every element of Cook County's population.
ing him on important committees, viz. the Arbitration Board and various reception committees to welcome distinguished guests to Chicago; also a member of the Board of Directors of Dr. John Dill Robertson's School for Nurses. Alderman Petzer always deports himself like a high class cultured gentleman and his legal ability is far beyond any question and no one would be more pleased than the writer to see him elevated to the Municipal Bench of Chicago.
Miss Jane E. Hunter, rounder and Director of the Phyllis Wheatley Home for Girls, of Cleveland, O., visited the Institute during the past week.
Dr. R. B. Moton, Principal, and Mr. Warren Logan, Vice Principal, attended the opening exercises of the Calhoun School of Calhoun, Ala., October 7.

He served fourteen years as an assessr, being re-elected three consecutive times. In 1912, after his term had expired, he connected himself with the Granite Block Manufacturers' Association, and upon the election of Mayor Thompson, in 1915, he was appointed as one of the members of the Board of Local Improvements.
His knowledge of city affairs, gained while serving as alderman, and his vast knowledge of real estate, values gained as a member of the Board of Assessors, coupled with his knowledge of constructive paving as a representative of one of the paving associations, eminently fitted him for the position, that of Superintendent of Streets, to which he was appointed by Mayor Thompson, on account of his qualifications and special fitness for that office.

Close onto 200,000 men and women indicated by their vote that they were ever mindful of the great record Mr. Eller has achieved in the office of City Sealer, which he has filled for the last six years with magnificent credit to himself and benefits to Chicagoanns.
Ask the housewife, the purchasing consumer, and the honest-weight dealer, and they will tell you Mr. Morris Eller is the man who put the sure in measure. Every pound you buy and pay for now means 16 ounces of product—no deduction for wrapper, covering or receptacle or anything else which you cannot use. The millions of dollars which the Sanitary Board expends annually in the maintenance of the drainage canal, will give full measure of service, with a

This event was established by Dr. Washington in order to arouse the interest of the colored people in the vicinity in beautifying their front yards.

A very busy week was brought to a close Saturday evening, October 9, with a concert by Madame Christine Languhan sang in English, French and Russian and the numbers were very enthusiastically received.
A very interesting meeting of the Tuskegee Institute Educational Association was held recently.

The efficiency and thoroughness which now characterizes the administration of the Department of Weights and Measures, since the incumbency of Mr. Morris Eller, will find a larger field in the affairs of the Sanitary Board, upon his deserving election to the trusteeship to which he aspires. Through Mr. Eller's efforts, numerous supplementary ordinances and laws have been passed by the City Council and State Legislature, which have brought many new commodities under his jurisdiction for weighing, measuring and charging. He has introduced innovations of standardization and uniformity in the administering of his office, which means savings of millions of dollars to the community. His most

of Chicago.
Hon. Patrick J. Carr, Demoeratic
jeandidate for re-election for Trustes
of the Sanitary District of Chicago, in
which capacity he has ably served for
ithe past six years, was born right here
in old Chieago, September 4, 1880. He
was the wide awake son of James and
Bridget (Bolger) Carr, who were well
known to the old-time citizens of Chi-
eago. As he advanced towards ripe
boyhood he sold newspapers for nine
years, at the same time saving his
money, which was expended to assist
to edueate him, and after completing
his education in the grammar school
‘in this city, he entered the De La Salle
Institute, finally graduating from it
with high honors.
On August 9, 1905, Mr. Carr was
happily usited in marriage to Miss
Agnes McAuley, and they are the
Proud and happy parents of one highly
jaccomplished daughter, Miss Margaret,
Carr. They reside in a pleasant home
at 3508 8. Western avenue.
_ Seemingly it was just as natural for
Mr. Carr to take to polities as it is

more than, six years he was one of]

re-elected to the City Couneil in 1913
without the slightest opposition, show-
ing that he oceupied 2 warm spot in
the hearts of all the people residing
in the Fifth Ward,
In 1914 Mr. Carr was the only Dem-
cerat “to be elected one of the Trus-
tees of the Sanitary Distriet of Chi-
cage, and being very popular and well
tiked by people in all walks of life,
many Republicans, both white and col-

Hon. Michael K. Sheridan Demo-
erstic candidate for member of the
Boul of Review, Was ushered into this
grand old world at Sterling, Dlincis,
in 1868, and he blew into Chicago
in 1888, and since that time to the
present he has been in the public eye,
all the time taking an honorable and
aseful part in the affairs-of the muni-
cipality and the business life of the
ity.
On coming to Chicago he entered
the employ of the ©. & N. W. By. Co,
where he was employed for several
years, leaving there to accept a more
responsible position with the Stock
Yards firm of Nelson Morris & Co.
‘This position he beld for 20 years, and
demonstrated his executive business
ability.
Mr. Sheridan was until not so long
‘ago member of the’ Boand of Assessors
of Cook County and as such he was
koown far and near as the small tax
payers, or the poor man’s friend on
the Board of Assessors.
During his term as Assessor he was
strietly nop-partisan, treating all tax
payers alike, . fair and_xight, with
uniform courtesy to all. He maintained
an ‘‘open door’? poliey to the entire
public which included colored men and
women’ as well as white men and
women. During his term he devoted
all of his time to the duties of his
ofice and bis untiring services in the
discharge of his office, stamped him as
‘one of the most faithful public serv-
‘ants of all the people residing in this
city and county. ¢
It has Deen well said’ that if .the
‘people living ig the Town of Lake and
residing in other sections of the. south
side fail to elect Mr, Sheridan as 2
member of the Board of Review, they
will have no representation on that
body for its other members reside
either on the North or the West Side
and the people om the South Side and
in the Town of Lake are justly en
titled to one member of the Board of

Hon. Joseph F. Haas Republican Candidate for Recorder of
Cook County.
Thousands of colored people resid-
ing in all parts of this city were sore-
ly disappointed and felt very much
[crestfallen when it gradually dawned
upon their minds that Col. James A.
Scott had been defeated in his race
for the nomination for Judge of the
municipal court for he and his active
‘we might say bright political mana-
igers (we don't think) did not really
know that he was defeated until five
o'clock Saturday evening, October 2,
land the simple fact that Col. Scott
jand his very wise or astute political
managers went dead to sleep on his
rights so long or until it was too late
for Col. Scott or for anyone else to
file a petition to make the race as an
independent Republican candidate
for Judge of the Municipal Court, for
fit seems that Col. Scott and his far
sighted political managers, again (we
do not think) who had been com-
pletely lulled to sleep by those two
tax evading and we might say Negro
hating sbeets the Chicago Tribune
land the Daily News who claimed that
right up to the last minute that Col
Scott was nominated by more than
eight thousand majority and those
two newspapers om all occasions re-
ferred to Col. Scott as Mayor Thomp-
son's Negro candidate for Judge of
the municipal court .
Col. Scott claims, so it is contend:
‘ed by some of his close friends, tha
under no condition would he have
consented to become an independent
Republican candidate for Judge o!
the Municipal Court. It may not b
lout of place to remind Col. Scott that
he was attempting to become «
servant of the people and most es
pecially of the colored people and

sble name has become s household
turd throughont this eity, Cook Coun-
ity and throughout the State of Mlinois,
was born in Chieago, Nevember 135,
1857, and was educated in the public
sebools of this city. He was employed

1873-1874, he entered the employ of J.

1890, He continued ix dasiness until
elected clerk of the Sxnitary District
‘of Chicago in 1898, He resigned on
Jane 11, 1900, on secount of the ill
nes of his partner.
‘Mr. Haas was elected State Senator
[trem the twenty-ftk senatorial dis
‘triet in 1902-1906, As state senstor he
introduced end was instrumental in
paming many important measures. He
was ehairman of the Chicago Charter

that one hiindred and fifty thousand
colored people in this city possess
some rights which some men must
be taught to respect.
| It is further comtended that Col
White Jack Tipper, who some time
‘ago picked up almost one thousand
dollars in easy money as assistant
‘corporation counsel of Chicago for
his great legal ability for a few hours
of his valuable time, Col. Oscar De
Priest who at one time was ready to
kill off or crush to the earth every
colored man in the Second Ward who
was unwilling to fight Mayor Thomp-
son, who is ready today to fight to a
dead standstill every colored man in
that Ward who is unwilling to toss
his hat high mp in the air and
shout long and oud for Mayor
Thompson and Hon. Edward H.
Wright, all three claim the dis-
tinguished honor of inducing Mayor
‘Thompson to hit upon Col. Scott for
the nomination for Judge of the Yuni-
‘cipal Court. 2
Under those hard conditions or
with three eminent politicians en-
deavoring to guide or to direct him in
three opposite directions at the same
time, it was mighty hard for Col
Scott to tell whether he was afoot or
horseback for after all, that has been
said and done, it is very hard or dif.
ficult for anyone to manfully serve
three political masters or managers
at the same time.
Evidently some of the iron master:
bossing or controlling him finally
jconcluded that it would be ten thou
sand times better to permit Col. Scot
to be laid out stiff and cold on the
battle field at the primaries he being
a colored man, rather than to permit
‘one white candidate on the Thomp.
‘Mr. Haas also voted for amendments

Recorder of Deods of Cook County.
Sunday afternoon, Hon. Bernard A.
‘Barasa, one of the fair minded
judges of the Municipal Court, who
led the Republican ticket in this city
jand in Cook County, when he was ele-
vated to the Municipal bench in 1918
addressed the small attendance at the
People’s Movement Club rooms,3140
Indiana ave, and Judge Barasa had
the nerve and the manhood to re-
premand and to score the colored
leaders and the colored people in gen-
jeral residing in the Second Ward for
their failure to nominate Col. James
A. Scott for Judge of the municipal
Court. Judge Barasa who proudly
boasts of the fact that he is an Ital-
jan, whose race furnishes the largest
number of street sweepers in Chi-
Jago which is classed as a scrub race,
informed those present that when he
recently ran for the pomination for
State’s Attorney that every Italian
man and woman in this city and
throughout Cook County, through
race pride felt themselves highly
honored in being permitted to vote
for him that in the 19th Ward the
stronghold of the Italians in this city
went strongly for him; that in some
of its precinets that Hon. Robert E.
Crowe utterly failed to receive one
vote and he did not hesitate in let-
ting the Colored people know that the
leaders of the Italians can give the
so-called leaders of the Colored race
in the Second Ward cards and spades
and then beat them in playing. at the
game of polities; that if the Colored
leaders in the Second Ward would
have discharged the solemn duty
which they owe to their race and for
once brushed their cold-blooded self-
ishness aside and urged the rank and
file of the Colored people to roll up
[a great majority for one of their own
fiesh and blood, that today Col. James
A Scott would be running for Judge
fof the Municipal Court, and being
Presidential election year, that without
‘the least doubt he would have been
clected; that his shameful defeat by
his own race and not by the white
race, for if he had ran behind the
Thompson ticket in the other wards
at the same rate as he did in his own
ward, that he would have been de-
feated by more than one-hundred thous-
and majority.
Judge Barasa very wisely con-
tended that the Colored people
through their indifference have been
et back in this city in their failure
to nominate Col. Scott, at least fifty
or one hundred years, and that the
chance may never come to them again
to -have representation on the Mu-
nicipal Court bench.
Col. Oscar De Priest, in presiding
over the meeting, attempted to throw
many barrels of cold water’on the
bold and truthful talk of Judge
Barasa, for Col. De Priest, who
claims to be the whole breastworks
lof the one hundred and fifty thousand
Colored people in this city, asserted
that by the time the Colored people
in the Second Ward got down to the
name of Col. Scott on the long ballot
that they were tired out and did not
feel like doing any more. voting
Judge Barasa intimated that that was
rather a lame or a mighty poor ex-
cuse, and that no one but a fool ot
Ja blind or a deaf and dumb mar
would: take any stock in such a state
| ment.
Then Col. De Priest in order tc
make his followers and Col. Scott
feel good and to give Judge Barass
|the horse-laugh, exclaimed that with
Jout being compelled to consult any
lof the Colored people in this city, that
j|he would have Col. Scott appointe:
