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."

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.

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.

Hon. Patrick J. Carr, Democratic Candidate for Trustee of the Sanitary District of Chicago. Hon. Patrick J. Carr, Democratic candidate for re-election for Trustee of the Sanitary District of Chicago, in which capacity he has ably served for the past six years, was born right here in old Chicago, 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 Chicago. 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 educate 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 united in marriage to Miss Agnes McAuley, and they are the proud and happy parents of one highly accomplished daughter, Miss Margaret Carr. They reside in a pleasant home at 3508 S. Western avenue. Seemingly it was just as natural for Mr. Carr to take to politics as it is for ducks to take to water, and for more than six years he was one of the honest sidewalk inspectors for the city of Chicago, and moving forward or on up in political affairs he was elected alderman from the Fifth Ward in 1911, and shortly after becoming one of the faithful, hard working city fathers he was presented with the finest and largest diamond star that any alderman has ever received. He was re-elected to the City Council in 1913 without the slightest opposition, showing that he occupied a warm spot in the hearts of all the people residing in the Fifth Ward. In 1914 Mr. Carr was the only Democrat to be elected one of the Trustees of the Sanitary District of Chicago, and being very popular and well liked by people in all walks of life, many Republicans, both white and colored, voted for him. He is President of Patrick J. Carr & Co., real estate dealers. He and his family are honored members of the Roman Catholic Church. He is a member of the Royal Area num, Knights of Columbus, Hibernians the Illinois Athletic Club, the Elks, Foresters, National Union, Eagles, Friends of Irish Freedom, Chicago Lincoln and Southwest Improvement Clubs, and he greatly delights to spend his extra time in playing hand-ball. His past splendid record entitles him to receive the hearty support of the vast majority of the voters residing in this city and county. As stated before that Mr. Carr is at all times ready and willing to work for the best interest of all the people in this great city and throughout Cook County, and the signs of the times seem to indicate that on Tuesday, November 2, the voters will reward him for his past faithful and true service by re-electing him Trustee of the Sanitary District of Chicago. Dr. George C. Hall, 2408 South Park avenue, left Saturday evening on a hurry up call for Memphis, Tennessee, where he performed an operation at the Sanitarium of Dr. J. E. Willem BOLD AND COURAGEOUS SPEECH OR ORATION OF HON. MARTIN B. MADDEN DELVERED IN THE HALLS OF CONGRESS THE FIRST PART OF APRIL, 1916, "FOR THE PROTECTION OF NEGRO WOMANHOOD." The following eloquent oration was delivered in the halls of Congress by Hon. Martin B. Madden, the latter part of April, 1916, and it is well to reproduce it once in awhile for it is well worth reading especially at this time while so many white gentlemen in and from the south are engaged in spending much of their unvaluable time in harping on that old "social equality stuff and that the colored folks are endeavoring to break or bust into the homes of the whites, without an invitation from them to do so and place themselves on the same social plane with them. For the Protection of Negro Woman hood. Mr. Madden. Mr. Speaker, I am opposed to intermarriage of the races. The Negroes themselves are opposed to such marriages. But I am opposed to legislation making such marriages a crime. If a white man and a black woman want to marry, it should be a matter for them to decide. I think they would both be foolish to thus ostracize themselves from association with their own people, and that is what they do when they marry. But if they want to ostracize themselves, that is a personal matter between them, and should be. To make such marriages criminal and void would leave the children of such marriages without the protection which they need and should have. Instead of bettering the moral conditions such a law would make them worse. It would leave many young girls at the mecy of brutes willing to take advantage of their virtue and then desert them to a life of shame. I cannot conceive of a condition under which a white man should be allowed to cohabit with a black woman not his wife without being compelled by law to marry her or provide for the care of their children. Why should innocent women of the Negro race not have the same protection of the law which is accorded to women of any other race? It will not do to say there is no such condition as that to which I have alluded. Everyone knows better, else how does it happen that we have so many people of mixed blood in the United States. The Negroes are willing to confine their marriages to their own race, indeed they would prefer that, but they have a right to demand that the women of their race shall not be considered the legitimate prey of the men of other races. (Applause.) If marriage between the Negro and Caucasian is so abhorent as to some it seems to be, why do so many of the Caucasian men insist on taking undue liberties with the defenseless Negro women? Why do they insist on mixing the blood of the races? If the blood of both races can be kept pure by law, all right; but who can assure it? By all means, if we are to have a law against mixed marriages, the law should provide for arrest and prosecution for bastardy, so that it will be possible to expose those who bonst of the purity of their blood while they continue clandestinely and illegally to cohabit with those against whom this law is directed. Let the law of marriage stand as it is, and trust to the pride of race both among the Negroes and Caucasians to contract their marriages with their own people. The purpose of this law Mme. Leo, the French modiste, of New Port, Rhode Island and 2412 Seventh Avenue, New York City; has for the past three or four weeks, been visiting with relatives and friends in this city, stopping at 3553 Grand Blvd., last Thursday afternoon. Mrs. S. A. T. Watkins, gave a delightful luncheon and progressive Whist party in her honor, in the parlors of the Appomattox Club. About one-hundred ladies were present and greeted the honored guest. Aside from that pleasant affair, other receptions; luncheons and theater parties, have been given in her honor. Mme. Leo, expects to depart for her home in New York City, the first of the week and next spring she may return and make Chicago her future home.

Asa Grant Adams, Republican candidate for Judge of the Municipal Court, was born at Sunbeam, Mercer County, Illinois, February 11, 1868, he was the bright and dutiful son of Samuel and Clarissa (Kean) Adams, he received his common and high school education at the Bude Illinois schools, in the course of time he entered the Chicago College of Law, graduating from it with high honors and the degree of L. L. B. was bestowed upon him in 1897. June 14, 1894, Judge Adams was happily united in marriage to Miss Luya Hartwell, who sprang from one of the oldest and most highly respected families of Rockford, Ill., and they are honored with one son, Mr. Windfield Hollister Adams, who is associated with his father in the law business. Judge Adams learned the jeweler's trade in Bude, Ill., and afterwards followed that business with Giles Brothers in this city, for ten years. is to further degrade the Negro, to make him feel the iron hand of tyranny so long practiced against his race. We should do all we can to combat the spirit of persecution and prejudice which confronts the Negroes of this country and to assure to them every right, privilege and opportunity to which every citizen of the United States is entitled. The Negroes ask no favors, no privileges, no special advantages. They ask no indulgence for their shortomeings, or any unusual economic and educational opportunities. They ask only equal opportunity—equality in the courts of the land. We should bestir ourselves to sid the Negroes, not embarrass them or shame them. We should make them feel that they are a useful and desirable part of our people. No other people has ever made greater progress under like conditions. They have increased in numbers from 1863 to 1915 from 4,500,000 to 10,000,000. They have advanced from almost total illiteracy since emancipation until today 70 per cent can read and write. They have among them musicians, artists, doctors, lawyers, editors, mechanics, artisans, agriculturists, bankers, educators, preachers, merchants, and are engaged in every useful occupation. They have accumulated property valued at $700,000,000-$70 per capita—a marvelous showing, a greater showing, indeed, than has ever been made before anywhere during all civilization. No other emancipated people have ever made so great a progress in so short a time. We should remember that the Negroes constitute one-tenth of our population, that they are a God-loving and law-abiding people who should be encouraged in their efforts to reach a higher moral standard. We should help the Negro to help himself. We should not continue to put the stamp of our disapproval upon him and cast him adrift and discourage him in an effort to reach that moral standard for which we all hope and continue to pray. The enactment of this law will do that, and will be one more step backward, which should never be taken by a Congress representing the people of America. (Applause.) There are not ten real men belonging to the opposite race in the United States today who would have the courage and the manhood to transform themselves into a bold lion and stand up in either branch of Congress and deliver an oration like unto it and while delivering it Congressman Madden looked the white gentlemen from the South who boast of their fire-catching abilities and their bulldozing tactics right square in their blurred eyes, for many of them are guilty of consorting with colored women, bringing forth thousands of half white bastard children by them and at the same time those same white gentlemen are good and ready to assist to mob and lynch any colored man who may happen to run or bump into any white woman on any of the public streets in any town in the South. In conclusion it must be freely admitted that there is no greater champion of the civil and political rights of the colored people in the United States than Congressman Martin B. Madden. —Editor. in a grand concert at St. Paul C. M. E. Church, 4644 S. Dearborn Street, for the benefit of new St. Paul. It will be the most notable musical event of the present season.

While a member of the Fifth United States Regular Army, and stationed at Columbus Miss., he, together with Senator Money's son of Mississippi, had the honor of saving two colored men from being lynched on May 12, 1898.

This position he held for 20 years, and demonstrated his executive business ability. Mr. Sheridan was until not so long ago member of the Board of Assessors of Cook County and as such he was known 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 stricly non-partisan, treating all taxpayers alike, fair and right, with uniform courtesy to all. He maintained an "open door" policy 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 office and his untiring services in the discharge of his office, stamped him as one of the most faithful public servants of all the people residing in this city and county. It has been well said that if the people living in the Town of Lake and residing in other sections of the south side fail to elect Mr. Sheridan as a 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 on the South Side and in the Town of Lake are justly entitled to one member of the Board of Reveiw. ```markdown ``` 14 HON.

THE BROAD AX, CHICAGO, OCTOBER 23, 1920 The Irish-Americans; The German-Americans; The Swedish-Americans; The Italian-Americans; The Jewish-Americans; The Polish-Americans; And All The Other Nationalities Amounting To Anything In This City, Aside from the Japanese, Chinese and the Colored Race, Have Representations on the Municipal Court Bench JUDGE BERNARD A. BARASA, WHO PROUDLY BOASTS OF THE FACT THAT HE IS OF ITALIAN BIRTH, ADDRESSED THE SLIM ATTENDANCE AT THE PEOPLE'S MOVEMENT LAST SUNDAY AFTERNOON, ROUNDLY UPBRAIDED THE COLORED PEOPLE RESIDING IN THE SECOND WARD FOR FAILING TO NOMINATE ONE OF THEIR OWN KIND FOR MUNICIPAL JUDGE. He Declared That They Had Lost Through Their Indifference a Golden Opportunity Which May Not Come to Them Again for the Next Fifty Years; That From a Judicial Point of View, the Colored Race in This City, Has Been Set Back One Hundred Years. Col. Oscar De Priest, Presiding, Attempted to Throw Cold Water on the Remarks of Judge Barasa and Stated That If Hon. Robert E. Crowe, Is Elected State's Attorney, That Without Being Compelled to Consult the Wishes of the One Hundred and Fifty Thousand Colored People Residing in This City, That He Will Have Mr. Scott Placed in the State's Attorney's Office. As Soon As It Was Ascertained That Mr. Scott Was Defeated at the Primaries a Great Mass Meeting Should Have Been Held and Some Other Able Colored Lawyer Should Have Been Selected As An Independent Candidate for Judge of the Municipal Court. For It Must Be Remembered That the Bridewell and the Cook County Jail House Are Constantly Being Filled Up With Colored People by the Various Municipal Court Judges of Chicago. Hon. Joseph F. Haas Republican Candidate for Recorder of Cook County. Thousands of colored people residing in all parts of this city were sorely 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 managers (we don't think) did not really know that he was defeated until five o'clock Saturday evening, October 2, and the simple fact that Col. Scott and 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 it seems that Col. Scott and his far sighted political managers, again (we do not think) who had been completely lulled to sleep by those two tax evading and we might say Negro hating sheets the Chicago Tribune and 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 on all occasions referred to Col. Scott as Mayor Thompson's Negro candidate for Judge of the municipal court. Col. Scott claims, so it is contended by some of his close friends, that under no condition would he have consented to become an independent Republican candidate for Judge of the Municipal Court. It may not be out of place to remind Col. Scott that he was attempting to become a servant of the people and most especially of the colored people and Hon. Joseph F. Haas, Republican candidate for re-election for Recorder of Cook County, whose fair and honorable name has become a household word throughout this city, Cook County and throughout the State of Illinois, was born in Chicago, November 13, 1857, and was educated in the public schools of this city. He was employed by Jameson & Morse Printing Co in 1873-1874, he entered the employ of J. S. Barares & Co., hatters and furriers, as errand boy and became a partner in 1890. He continued in business until elected clerk of the Sanitary District of Chicago in 1898. He resigned on June 11, 1900, on account of the illness of his partner. Mr. Haas was elected State Senator from the twenty-fifth senatorial district in 1902-1906. As state senator he introduced and was instrumental in passing many important measures. He was chairman of the Chicago Charter Committee of the forty-fourth general assembly. Among the important hills which he introduced are now laws were the bills creating the Municipal Courts of Chicago which abolished the old police justice system; the bill creating forest preserve which is making possible the conservation of the woodlands in the county for public park systems, and several other bills giving to the park boards the power to maintain and govern the parks and beavers under their control; a bill fixing the date limit on time which persons could see a municipality for personal injuries, a law which has saved Chicago and other cities hundreds of thousands of that one hundred and fifty thousand colored people in this city possess some rights which some men must be taught to respect. It is further contended 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 Thompson, who is ready today to fight to a dead standstill every colored man in that Ward who is unwilling to toss his hat high up in the air and shout long and loud for Mayor Thompson and Hon. Edward H. Wright, all three claim the distinguished honor of inducing Mayor Thompson to hit upon Col. Scott for the nomination for Judge of the Municipal Court. Under those hard conditions or with three eminent politicians endeavoring 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 difficult for anyone to manfully serve three political masters or managers at the same time. Evidently some of the iron masters bossing or controlling him finally concluded that it would be ten thousand times better to permit Col. Scott 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 Thompson. Mr. Hans also voted for amendments to the Torrens system, which has broadened its scope. He was elected county clerk in 1906 and conducted the business of that office in an efficient manner. The recorder is the official custodian of all the records affecting the title of every piece of property in this county. He conducts big business, requiring the attention of a man of considerable business experience. Mr. Hans is a member of many fraternal societies and other organizations. Chief among them are Maplewood Council No. 50, Royal League, Kilwinning Lodge No. 411, A. F. & A. M. For more than thirty years the people residing in this city have known Mr. Haas as a high class business man. To the undying or the everlasting credit of Mr. Haas, it must be said that he employs more colored clerks and stenographers in the County Recorders office than all of his predecessors combined, for several years past sixteen colored clerks and stenographers have been steadily employed in his office and they are scattered throughout all of its departments and occupy seats or desks where any one will not experience any trouble in beholding them. Regardless of what all these say or do who are opposing his re-election, every colored man and woman fielding within the walls of this city and county should on Tuesday, November 2, solidly march to the polls and with their votes which, are all powerful assist to land him back in the County Building as the honest and faithful Recorder of Deeds of Cook County. son ticket to fall by the wayside in the Second Ward. Judge Barasa very wisely contended that the Colored people through their indifference have been set 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 Municipal 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 of 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 excuse, and that no one but a fool or a blind or a deaf and dumb man would take any stock in such a statement. Then Col. De Priest in order to make his followers and Col. Scott feel good and to give Judge Barasa the horse-laugh, exclaimed that without being compelled to consult any of the Colored people in this city, that he would have Col. Scott appointed assistant State's Attorney if Hon. Robert E. Crowe lands in that office. As stated in the heading of this article that all the leading nationalities in this city aside from the Japanese, the Chinese and the Colored race, have representation on the Municipal Court bench and on the bench of the higher courts of Cook county. The so-called leaders of the Colored race in this city continued to sleep at the post to the last minute, for if they had been wide-awake all the time they would have found out two or three days after the primaries that Col. Scott was defeated and then they would of had plenty of time to have called a great mass meeting and had the best interest of the Colored race at heart; some high class lawyers could have been selected without any knocking down or dragging out, to make the race for Judge of the Municipal Court, and we have every reason to believe that owing to the loyal support which Mayor William Hale Thompson has received from the Colored people in the past that he would have greatly assisted to put the Colored candidate over the plate for Judge of the Municipal Court, for in the meantime the Bridewell and the Cook County Jail house continues to be loaded down with Colored men and women who are with pleasure sent there by the various Judges of the Municipal Courts in this city. and HON.

He is an honored member of the Chicago and the Illinois Bar Associations and a large degree or measure of success was showered upon him while he was engaged in the general practice of his honored profession.

Judge Graham was born and raised right in among the Colored people on the west side and unto this day he delights to recall the fact that during his boyhood days that he played marbles with the Colored boys around and about him and that he would generally have his pockets full of Kings which he had won from them. Judge Graham still has many friends among the best clas of colored people residing on the west side and in other sections of this city and whenever he meets them on the streets he is not too proud to pleasantly greet them and to extend a hearty hand shake and he feels confident that his many good colored friends will remember him on Tuesday, November 2, and record their votes in favor of his re-election as one of the judges of the Municipal Court.
