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. 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.

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.

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 Condidate 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 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 Hon. Joseph F.

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.

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: assistant State's Attorney if Hon Robert E.
