P. O. Elks, Woodlawn Park Lodge, L. O. O. F., Onawa Tribe, I. O. Red Men, the Woodlawn Park Club, the Chicago Automobile Club and the Woodlawn Business Men's Association. As Chairman of the Public Health Committee he made a long and forceful fight for the reduction of the high cost of living. He led a Chicago civic and official delegation to Washington last January and appeared before the Joint Committee on Agriculture and Forestry of the United States Congress in urging protection for the people against profiteers. THINGS YOU OUGHT TO JOSEPH F. HAAS SHOU Soon after Hon. Joseph F. Haas was elected Recorder of Deeds and Registrar of Titles, he found that the Torrens system was being conducted for the benefit of a small coterie of men who were the recipients of rank favoritism. They claimed to be friends of the Torrens system, but their friendship was based upon what they could get out of it and not on what they could do for it. That these men are willing to spend thousands of dollars in trying to defeat Joseph F. Haas for re-election only brings up the query "How much more do they expect to gain for themselves by his defeat?" These men who pose as "friends" of the Torrens system in 1918 went before the County Board and asked that no appropriation be made for the newspaper advertising thortofore considered essential for extending and promoting the Torrens system. A private monopoly could ask for no better friends than these men who have made it possible for it to advertise in the daily papers every day, while the Torrens system cannot spend one penny upon such advertisement. The only advertisement which the system receives today is the ability to deliver the goods. DEMOCRACY AND THE AMERICAN NEGRO. By H. Wallace Thurman. Fifty-seven years ago the much despised American Negro was released from the shackles of slavery by that incomparable statesman and emancipator, Abraham Lincoln. The Negro was cast out upon the sea of life without knowledge of responsibility and unable to cope with the situation of having to care for himself. He has been hindered from making any advancement because of lack of knowledge and because of the fact that he was held in partial slavery by the American white man. Has this partial slavery been fully eradicated at this present date of "Freedom and Democracy?" No. Does the American white man fully realize the meaning of Democracy? Does it mean that a race struggling hard for recognition should be deprived of the rights and privileges which are inhored by them at birth? Does it mean that this race should be surrounded on all sides by prejudice and segregation? Does it mean that they are to be confronted at all times by that Gatan-inspired law, "The Jim Crow?" Does it mean that the men of this race shall have to stand to see their women and children being insulted by the brutes who call themselves gentlemen and purveyors of Democracy. No. Democracy does not mean or uphold the acts alluded to in the foregoing, it means that all men regardless of color or creed are created equal and should receive the recogni- HON. FRANK S. RIGHEIMER CAGO AND THE THOM Three points have been accentuated in the campaign being waged for the election of Hon. Frank S. Righimer, first assistant corporation counsel, as county judge. They are: That he is a Chicago product. That his long practice in special assessment law eminently qualifies him for the County Court. That as head of the election machinery he would give an honest count on Mayor Thompson's 5-cent fare traction plan. Mr. Righimer was born at the corner of Union and Ldberty sta.—over his For Tug 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 oldman. 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 TORRENS FACTS TO KNOW ABOUT THE TORRENTS SHOULD BE RE-ELECTED RECORDER OF TITLES. was regis-Tor for women flavors of send-could they are dollars for query it to "ads" went sked the con- and The boom years of the last Democratic administration were from 1913 to 1916. Taking the six months period ending June 1, 1913, as a starting point and the six months ending May 31, 1920, for comparison, it will be found that the number of documents filed during those six months periods has jumped from 4,276 to 8,983, the number of certificates issued has jumped from 2,229 to 4,882, the number of transfers from 1,903 to 3,308, the consideration for those transfers from $3,094,634.97 to $5,023,782.00, the number of trust deeds filed from 1,444 to 2,567, the amount secured by those trust deeds from $3,070,960.81 to $8,383,414.00. In other words the work of the office is nearly double, while it has been handled in a manner that has secured the commendation of the Chicago Bureau of Public Efficiency. If the work is done carelessly or negligently it will be reflected in payments from the indemnity fund. $1,285.67 has actually been paid out of the indemnity fund for errors during the last administration, as compared with $62.75 paid out for errors during the administration of Mr. Haas.

What race residing in this country is subject to lynchings without provocation or fair trial? What race has nearly reached the pinnacle of success although impeded by ignorance, prejudice and segregation? Need I answer the above questions when you know that there is only one race so treated in this fair land of freedom and Democracy, and that race is the American Negro. If this be true then to whom should our government first see that the rules of Democracy are applied? Why the American Negro. But does it do this? No. Our government is too busy trying to teach other nations what she yet herself has to learn. and they by Jim in of see in them of not in men mentionedigi- MER, FIRST ASSISTANT CORPORATE COMPSON CANDIDATE FOR COUNTY ted the mer, as father's grocery store—in 1880.

Compare this with the $52.75 paid out during this administration. During the seventeen years and eight months in which the Torrens system was in existence prior to this administration 67,572 documents were registered. During the three years and ten months of the administration of Mr. Haas 54,896 documents have been registered. In addition 2,544 decrees have been entered. In only eight cases have the rulings of examiners of title under Mr. Haas ever been disturbed by court order. In the opinions rendered by the Supreme Court of Illinois at the June, 1920, term, the Supreme Court either allowed rehearses or modified its own opinions in nearly one-third of the cases decided by it. In view of this the record of Mr. Haas and his assistants is a remarkable one. He is proud of his record and justly so. What Joseph F. Haas stands for is for security of the registered owners and the indemnity fund of the County of Cook. He does not stand for carelessness and negligence merely to allow certain brokers to earn fat commissions. THE NAME OF HON. MICHAEL ROSENBERG APPREARS LAST IN THE FIRST COLUMN OF THE OPTIONAL BALLOT. The official ballot, which contains all the names of all of the candidates including the Presidential Electors to be voted for this coming Tuesday, November 2, is almost as large as three large sized bath towels and a bundle of the sample ballots, are just as much as the lady clerks and judges of election can comfortably lug home. Any one glancing at the official ballot will note that the Democratic candidates follow each other in rotation in the first column that the name of Hon. Michael Rosenberg, candidate for Trustee for the Sanitary District of Chicago, appears last in that column that the many Republican friends who desire to vote for him, will have no trouble in crossing over and putting a cross in front of his name and in front of the name of Hon. Patrick J. Carr and Hon. Morris Eller, the third name from the bottom in the Republican column. Mr. Louis H. Granow, cashier of the Circuit Court of Cook County and the head secretary to Col. August W. Miller, is the right man in the right place. For Mr. Granow is ever ready to extend all the courtesies that he possibly can, to the many patrons of that o...ce and he fells confident away down in his bones that on Tuesday, November 2, Col.

The man constantly engaged in doing things has little time to advertise them. As assistant Corporation Counsel of Chicago, Mr. Righeimer has proved to be just the kind of man the situation demanded. He measured up to the requirements in full. He brought to his new duties a vision and an understanding that gave a cutting edge to his efforts; coupled with the qualities of an executive which procured the best results in co-operation and unity. --- HON.

Can any Republican who values his party's good name and the honor of Illinois vote for Len Small for Governor? April 28, 1920, more than fifteen months after his term as State Treasurer had ended, Len Small paid into the State treasury $143,585.79 without even pretense of any excuse for so long withholding money belonging to the State. Written information from the Department of Finance of Illinois shows that he still owes the State more than $350,000.00 for interest on the people's money. Such a record should make it impossible for any high-minded patriotic Republican to vote for Len Small for Governor. Can any patriotic, law-abiding Republican vote for Senator Lewis, the Democratic candidate for Governor! Senator Lewis is trying to create a race issue in Illinois, as if he had so soon forgotten the race riots which last year disgraced Chicago and other cities of our State. This is not the Senator Lewis that I have known and thought I knew. It is rather a modern Mirabeau seeking to awaken the mob spirit for his own glorification. The fact that Mayor Thompson panders to the criminal classes, both black and white, does not excuse Senator Lewis in attempting to incite race feeling among the criminal or ignorant whites. There is no occasion whatever for Senator Lewis, in this State of Abraham Lincoln, crying out in mock heroic style that this is "a white man's city." Nobody has claimed that it was a black man's city. Nobody has given the slightest sign of a purpose or desire to make it a black man's city. This is not a white man's city nor a black man's city. This is an American city. No true American will seek to create hatred between racial groups or to hoist himself into power by such reckless appeals. The final test of American citizenship is neither race, creed nor color. There is but one final test: Loyalty to the Constitution and laws and devotion to the flag.

CARR, DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE 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 There are criminal whites as well as criminal blacks. Senator Lewis, in melodramatic poses thunders out, "So long as I have breath to speak I shall raise my voice to prevent criminal Negroes from lording it over Christian white men." Will he raise his voice or will he keep quiet when criminal white men attempt to lord it over Christians, white or black? Senator Lewis is in bad business when, in his desperation for votes and ambition for power, he tries to stir up a race issue in Chicago and throughout Illinois. He is sowing the wind; let him take care that he and we do not reap the whirlwind! In Senator Lewis a non-partisan or is he a political throw-back, invoking here in the North, where there is no excuse for it, the Ku Klux spirit that has terrorized the black men of the South so that he dare not exercise his political rights? Senator Lewis, political he-sir that he is, is trying to lure Republicans into forgetting that he is a Democrat, while he himself does not forget it for a single moment. Has anybody heard Senator Lewis say to Democrats that he did not wish their votes merely because he was a Democrat but only if they felt him to be the best qualified man for the office in the field? No. Until he does say it, let him not plead for non-partisanship in this Republican state. Has he made public promise that if a vacancy should occur in the United States Senate by reason of the death, disability or resignation of a Republican senator from Illinois he will fill the vacancy by appointing a Republican? Until he gives solemn pledge to that effect, let him not claim that James Hamilton Lewis, if Governor of Illinois, will ever forget that he is a Democrat or will fail to act as a Democrat upon any political question presented to him. There is but one course left for the patriotic, law-abiding Republicans: to vote for me, the only Harding-Coolidge Republican candidate for Governor. A Human Bouquet.

"Tough as Hickory." "Tough as hickory" is a phrase suggesting the peculiar strength and elasticity of the hickory wood and it may be for that reason your favorite. Gen.

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 Areaum, Knights of Columbus, Hibernians the Illinois Athletic Club, the Elks, Forester, 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 entities 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 Trustees of the Sanitary District of Chicago.

He is a true friend of the colored race and is of the same opinion as Mayor Thompson that "no race, color, or religion should be prejudicial in any respect, and that a man is a man always." The Fast Age "The world never moved so fast before," mused Mr. Simmons. "We have winter ice on the Fourth of July, spring vegetables on Christmas; we buy our straw hats in February and our felt hats in August; we get our Sunday paper on Saturday night, and our magazines a month ahead of time. If we telephone a man in New Francisco from New York, he hears our voice about four hours before we speak; and if some one in Japan sends us a cablegram tomorrow, we get it today." Intelligent Parrot Locke's "Essay on the Human Understanding" refers to a parrot which had the faculty for answering questions sensibly. When the governor of Brazil was introduced to it he asked the bird: "What do you do here?" "I look after chickens," was the ready reply. "You look after chickens" roared the governor, with a burst of laughter. "Yes," retorted the bird, "and I know how to do it," at the same time clucking like a broody hen. scripture Lore Young Man (to girl who has managed to get a little dirt in her eye)—"May I remove the mote from your eye?"

Bathing came to Europe as one of the good results of the Crusades. The Knights of the Cross found baths in general use among the Sarccens, and seeing what good things they were, on returning from those wars took the initiative for their introduction. In this they were highly successful first in England and from that to other countries. So popular did the bath become that it became customary to have one before ceremonies such as marriage or knighthood, and the people have been ever since learning the value of keeping their skins clean. 334 HON.

Hon. Francis Borrelli, Democratic candidate for Judge of the Municipal Court, is one of the best known and most up-to-date lawyers in this city and he can easily hold his own with its most eminent attorneys at the bar in this part of the middle west. Borrelli and their very bright children have resided at 6742 S. Loomis bank. He was selected as Assistant County Attorney in 1910 and he filled that responsible position with honor to himself, and to all the citizens residing in Mr. Borrelli has the honor and distinction of being a native son of Chicago for he was born among the lowly and the poorly right down on S. Clark street and Harrison or right under the very shadow of the John Jones School, attending that school where he drank in his early education at the feet of Mrs. Marshall, one of the best colored school teachers in this city. He found his way into this big old world on February 2, 1880, and after graduating from the John Jones School and from the old South Division High School with creditable honors, he still sold newspapers and acting or playing the part of a real live newsboy in order to earn sufficient money to pay his way through the University of Michigan, for it must be remembered that he was not born with a silver or gold spoon in his mouth. In 1903 he emerged from that great institution of learning with the Degree of Bachelor of Laws, while attending it he and Mr. Eugene J. Marshall, member of the law firm of Scott, Brown & Marshall, 3439 S. State street, who was the real orator of the university became fast friends and they are still friends unto this day.

From January 16, 1918, to March 5, 1919, he honorably served as Assistant United States District Attorney and everybody will remember when the great world war, was on how in the stream of news from the Federal Building concerning sedition cases the name of "Assistant District Attorney Frances Borrelli" always figured. With the vigorous application of the espionage act in this territory history will link inseparably the upright, indefatigable lawyer whom Uncle Sam, through District Attorney Clyne, intrusted with a delicate and important war task. Mr. Eugene Renfroe, who sat right by the side of Mr. Borrelli in the old John Jones School, Harrison street and Plymouth place, Alderman Louis B. Anderson, Hon. S. A. T. Watkins, Attorney Eugene J. Marshall, who attended the Michigan University with Mr. Borrelli, Attorney Richard E. Westbrooks, Hon. F. L. Barnett, exAssistant State's Attorney of Cook County and many other well-known colored lawyers and many other colored people in all walks of life, both men and women, speak of Mr. Borrelli in the highest terms and there is not the least doubt about it that many of his old colored friends, especially those who have known him well and favorably from his boyhood days will vote for him on Tuesday, November 2, and we have every reason to believe that he will be elected and that he will make a tip top Judge of the Municipal Court of Chicago. 333 re-election for member of the county.

The Socialist candidacy is based upon a clear statement of what this office is, and what its duties are—facts which go unnoticed by all too many citizens.

THE BROAD AX, CHICAGO, OCTOBER 30, 1920 Lives of great men all remind us We can make our lives sublime And departing leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time. The good conduct and achievements of men and women of our race speak more eloquently than words ever can; they are making their lives sublime. Mr. W. T. Gaines, contractor and owner of much Chicago property, is a man with practical ideas, and although he is a university man he believes in the trowel and the paint brush. He has made "hisan'" by using common knowledge, spiced here and there with gentle sprigs of wisdom. He is a stronger believer in the man with the hoe, and loves the noble spirit power with which Booker T. Washington im- pregnated a world. Hon. Oscar De Priest is a man of very excellent qualities and amplified qualifications. He is a constructionist, a builder and a leader of men. He is in the forefront of every big move in the forward march of his race and he enjoys a singular respect and devotion paid him always. Think of the Second Ward if you can without thinking of Oscar De Priest. That location in the heart of Chicago where they are doing more in the matter of racial development and thrift than any other place on earth. Oscar was our first Alderman, our County Commissioner, and still he is enjoying a big place in the sun down there. Reader it will do you no harm to enjoy a speaking acquaintance with Hon. Mr. De Priest of the Second Ward. . . . When we came to Chicago to practice our profession our only druggist at that time, 1901, was big Pill Taylor, 29th street and Armour avenue. This used to be the port of entry to the good graces of club and social life and W. F. Taylor was some performer behind the prescription case. Those were golden days and Oh! boy such joyous hours! He is still in the drug business at 29th and State street, which almost emphasizes the belief that there is yet lots of money down there because Will Taylor loves the mesma. In the early days, of which we were speaking, S. Laing Williams and F. L. Barnett were holding forth as lawyers in the loop, and in fact were quite popular in the courts. Lawyers among us were few in those days. Besides them were Hon. E. H. Morris, Will L. Martin, John G. Jones, Ed. E. Wilson, Col. Franklin A. Denison, J. Gray Lucas, Bob Mitchell, S. A. T. Watkins, and E. H. Wright, and they about made up the list of lawyers of 1901. Read them over again, an array of legal talent that still hold the boards. You can't beat them in any city of America.

All have left the impression of their genius and qualification upon the memory of their kind and mankind generally. To know these, to have met them and to have conversed with them is sufficient joy to fill our cup. By James E. Gregg, Principal of Hampton Institute. Hampton, Va.-While not losing sight of symmetry and completeness in our educational efforts, we ought to be always sure that we are seeking thoroughness as the first and fundamental thing. Unless the ground work is laid, there can be no security for the superstructure, no confidence in the final result. This principle is evident, as soon as it is stated; yet how constantly, how flagrantly, how ridiculously, it is disregarded—all over our land, from the kindergarten to the graduate school of the university. The inability of the ordinary college graduate to write English compactly, simply and expressly, or even to speak it in a clear, orderly, unpretentious fashion, not resorting to the slang of Broadway to gain his effect, is everywhere recognized, and laughed at or deplored, according to the mood of the observer. Spelling is so much of a lost art that there is little shame attached to the disregard of it; and many people who consider themselves educated speak of the inability to spell as if it were like color-blindness or an unmusical ear—only commoner. One frequently hears stories of the helplessness of high school and college students when confronted with an exercise in the computation of simple interest; and everybody knows that the number of those who go through algebra and geometry and really master the principles—see the idea—of what they are studying, is pathetically small. Similar observations might be [Name] HON. PETER M. HOFFMAN.

Now my argument is like the well-worn saying of Josh Billings—who in his boyhood attended the church of which I was once pastor—that "it is better not to know so much than to know so much that sinn so." I should say that it is better not to learn so much than to learn so much that isn't learned. Before I further go its right to say There isn't a blessed thing now in the way Unless it is my color, I am brown The kind that makes them lay their prayer book down. But not so very brown at that my spirit Leads less to hue of skin, and more to merit Let us be content with a few essential things entirely grasped, really mastered, understood through and through, and permanently ready for use, if the alternative is a heterogeneous trash pile of knowledge, consisting of subjects about which the student has read or heard more or less, or to which he has given so many hours per week for so many semesters, but which he is far from having made his own intellectual property. All of us must realize how strong the temptation is to be hasty and superficial in our teaching, and consequently, to make our pupils hasty and superficial in their thinking. When we are framing the curricula, we do like to have them look well on paper; we compare our catalogue with those of other institutions, and it irritates us to feel that we are making an inferior showing on the printed page. Those of us who are teaching classes know that we are expected to "cover so much ground" during the year, and we made the class do it somehow or other, though their occupation of the field in question may be after the manner of the tramp asleep against a haystack rather than that of an energetic ploughman. To "cover" a subject does not mean to lie down on it; but to dig it up. In all our school work let us be honest from the ground up. Let us give our pupils what they ought to have to fit them for life. It is our business to make of boys and girls the right kind of men and women. We may well follow the desire of Squire Brown, who, in sending Tom to Rugby, said: "If he'll only turn out a brave, helpful, truth-telling Englishman, and a Christian, that's all I want." truth-telling, American Christians. We should give them intellectual assurance and power. We should have them learn through what is learned. THE ROMANCE QUEEN. Wife wanted, the Romance Queen will do.

MARTIN B. MADDEN DELVERED IN THE HALLS OF CONGRESS THE FIRST PART OF APRIL, 1916, "FOR THE PROTECTION OF NEGRO WOMANHOOD." Hon. Joseph F. Haas Republican Candidate for Recorder of Cook County. Hon. Joseph F. Haas Republican Candidate for Recorder of Cook County. 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 Womanhood. 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 meery of brutes willing to take advantage of their virtue and then desert them to a life of shame. I cannot censure 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 boast 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 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 Printer Co in 1873-1874, he entered the employ of J. S. Barnes & Co., hatters and furries, 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. Hans 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 bills 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 pubile park systems, and several other bills giving to the park boards the power to maintain and govern the parks and boulevards under their control; a bill fixing the date limit on time which persons could see a municipality for personal injuries, a law which has enforced Chicago and other cities hundreds of thousands of people. 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 shortcomings, or any unusual economic and educational opportunities. They ask only equal opportunity—equality in the courts of the land. We should bestir ourselves to aid 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 most illiterate 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, presachers, 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-casting abilities and their bulldozing tactics right square in their blured 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. Mr. Hass 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 if considerable business experience. Mr. Haas is a member of many fraternal societies and other organizations. Chief among them are Maplewood Council No. 50, Royal League, Killinning Lodge No. 411, A. 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 to 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 those say or do who are opposing his re-election, every colored man and woman residing within the walls of this city and county should on Tuesday, November 8, solidly march to the polls and with their votes which, are all powerful assist to hand him back in the County Building as the honest and faithful Recorder of Deaths of Cook County. Tulsa, Okla.—The Negro State Democratic Convention opened in the Masonic Hall, 618 E. Archer street with an attendance of 200 delegates from the following counties: Muskogee, Rogers, Nowata, Craig, Okduglee, Oklahoma, Pottowamie, Kingfisher, Wagoner and Tulsa. Mayor Evans, W. B. Williams, County Attorney Monroe, Judge M. A. Brekinridge, Chairman of the Central Courtty Committee, and Congressman E. B. Howard were scheduled to make addresses. The program was in charge of Fred L. Donga, President of the Afro-American Club. The convention was attended by an exceptionally large number of delegates and Fred L. Douglas predicted it would be one of the most successful meetings the Negro Democrats of the State have ever held. Editor Smitherman of the Tulsa Star was prominent in the meeting. The value of dried apple as a protective food is shown by experiments in the laboratory. The green leaf vegetables are next in value in the protection from scurvy. A small amount of cabbage added to an otherwise deficient ration will keep guinea pigs in good condition for more than a year. The third class of foods in the prevention of scurvy is the root vegetables. Onions, potatoes and carrots were found in the experiments to retain enough of the protective element to carry guinea pigs through reproduction. An Egyptian Orchestra. A full Egyptian orchestra was composed of twenty harps, eight lutes, five or six lyres, six or seven double pipes, five or six flutes, one or two pipes (rarely used), two or three tambourines (seldom used). If vocalists were added, which was not necessarily the rule, they would number about three-fourths as many as the harpers. Inventor of the Lifeboat. The first lifeboat was invented in 1784 by Lionel Lukin, a native of Dumrow, England. His "unimmerible boat," however, attracted little attention, and a later design developed from his model won for H. Greathead the title of "father of the lifeboat." The American father of the lifeboat was Joseph Francis. He was voted a gold medal by congress for his invention. This medal, valued at $6,000 and said to be the largest ever given by the government to an individual, was presented to Francis at the White House by President Benjamin Harrison. cwever burrenger. The particular things which we do, the particular efforts we make, often seem to fall; but it is the perpetual struggle, the everlasting trying, the constant pushing, that count, and that develop men and women of unconquerable spirit—The New Success. Hon. Morris Eller Republican Candidate for Trustee of the Sanitary District of Chicago. 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-eventually 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. 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 Chicagoans. 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 person of the serpulous sense of public duty such as Mr. Eller and his associated candidates, elected to supervise their expending. The efficiency and thoroughness which now characterizes the administration of the Department of Weigh's 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 w. lighting, 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 recent originality has been to secure a motorcycle squad to bring an investigator from his office with despatch to wherever a complaint comes from. A 76 COL. AUGUST W.

Miller, Republican candidate for re-election for Clerk of the Circuit Court of Cook County, who is extremely popular with all classes of his fellow citizens, was born in this city, June 8, 1861, his father, George M.

Miller was educated "in the Chicago public schools and St. Ignatius College. 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. A short time after leaving college he entered the employ of the wholesale millinery firm of Ascher & Barnard Co., remaining with it for twenty-one years, beginning as an entry clerk and rising to general manager of the business. He left the firm in January, 1898, to establish the wholesale millinery firm of Miller & Probet. He also served as vice-president of the Phoenix Foundry. He has resided continually in the 12th Ward, where he now lives and which he represented in the City Council in 1895 and was re-elected in 1897. He resigned when elected to the Board of Assessors in 1898, when that Board was first organized. He served fourteen years as an assess r, 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 housewife or householder who now discovers himself mulleted in weight by an unscrupulous seller, need only call up the City Sealer's office to have an inspector respond at once, while the seller is still on the premises. If elected Trustee of the Sanitary District, Mr. Eller will devote his entire time to the supervision of its affairs and vouchers that every cent expended will do its full measure of worth, for the public good. Mr. Eller resides with his family at 1301 S. Peoria street, in the same immediate vicinity where he has lived for the past 37 years.

During his incumbency of his position on the Board of Local Improvements he instituted many corrective policies and saved thousands of dollars in the award of paving contracts and in repairs. Col. Miller is a prominent member of many fraternal and charitable organizations, he was connected with the Second Regiment, Illinois National Guard, for fifteen years of which Begiment he was Lieutenant Colonel. He is a member of the Illinois State Board of Agriculture from the 5th Congressional District, and resides with his family at 3135 Carlshe place. Col. Miller has always stood as high with the colored people residing in this city and county and for all the past years he has proven himself to be an honest and faithful public servant, and it goes without saying that many thousands of colored men and women will on Tuesday, November 2, march on to victory with him.

It must be said to the great credit of Mr. Eller that he always treats all citizens alike from the highest to the humblest when they have business to transact in his office and being a warm supporter of Mayor William Hale Thompson, it is almost useless to state that all of the colored men and women in this city and county who are in favor of upholding the hands of Mayor Thompson will on Tuesday, November 2, fall in line and assist to roll up a big majority for Mr. Eller for one of the Trustees of the Sanitary District of Chicago. 1910 atee of the Sanitary District of Hale Thompson made No MisMr. Eller, City Sealer and the County will make No Mistake by electing him to the New on which is sought by Him. 1920 Democratic Candidate, for Member of the Board of Cook County.

Sheridan Democratic candidate for member of the E. d. of Review, was ushered into this grand old world at Sterling, Illinois, 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 useful part in the affairs of the municipality and the business life of the city. On coming to Chicago he entered the employ of the O. & N. W. Ry. 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 held for 20 years, and demonstrated his executive business ability. Mr. Sheridan was until no 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 strictly non-partisan, treating all tax payers 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.

James Hamilton Lewis Has a Splendid Chance of Being Elected Governor of Illinois. Mighty few politicians in this city or state, Democratic or Republican. M. HON. JAMES HAMILTON LEWIS. Formerly United States Senator from Illinois waging a brilliant and telling fight in his race for this state. member of the Board of Review is not Elected to that Office, the town of Lake and on the South of Representation on that Board. ants 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 Review. Hon. Patrick A. Nash member of the Board from the west side, Alderman Joseph Higgins Smith; Alderman Geo M. Maypole, Hon Edward J. Hughes, State Senator from the 21st senatorial district of Illinois, Hon. Dennis J. Egan; Hon. Robert M. Switzer, Hon. George E. Brennan, Hon. Henry Stuckart, Hon. E. Treager, Hon. William L. O'Connell, Hon. James M. Dailey, and all the other big leaders of his party and hosts of warm friends are plugging for his election. Mr. and Mrs. Sheridan and the other members of their highly interesting family reside at 5608 South Peoria street and once each week, The Broad Ax, finds its way into their levy home and no one would be more highly delighted than the writer to see him on Tuesday, November 2nd, selected as the Old Town of Lake or the south side member of the Board of Review. has any edge on Hon. George E. Brennan, who tossed three thousand dollars into the National Campaign Fund to assist Messrs. Cox and Roosevelt in their fight to be elected President and Vice-President of the United States. Mr. Brennan is firmly of the opinion that the Democratic County ticket including the Municipal Court ticket are composed of the best men in the party, that the opposition camp has not been able to successfully attack them on the ground that they lack the ability to discharge the duties of the various offices which they are seeking. 1890 Senator from Illinois, who is right in his race for govenor of CHARLESE. STUMP, THE FAMOUS NEWSPAPER COR- RESPONDENT IS HEADED NORTHWARD FROM A TRAMPING TOUR THROUGH TEXAS, THE LONE STAR STATE AND FROM OTHER POINTS IN THAT SECTION OF THE SOUTH LAND. know when him, but he tist preach been in P where he I have there, and Beaumont, Tex. The only thing necessary now is to put the votes in and then have them counted, for without, the ballots are going in on the second day of November and when they are counted you will find that Senator Warren G. Harding has been made President of the United States, and there will be a Republican Congress to back him up in all that he may attempt to do, and that will mean a new order of things in my country. Of course the Democrats are making a dying fight, and they believe in the old adage “Where there is life there is hope.” I want them to hope and hope on, but we have decided that they must have rest, and I am proud that it is coming. I do not wish any of them any harm. I hope that when President Wilson retires to private life, he will have a real good position some where, or that he may soon get the required rest. The world has not been standing still, and as the world has been moving, I have been moving also, and you will see right where I am as I wrote the other letter, and the one before that and you will say that I am just one more moving man. I have been to Chicago, of course, and had some real long talk with Han. Henry Lincoln Johnson, who is our representative in the upper chamber of the Republican party, and the only one we have there, in that big committee which shapes the affairs of the party, determined where the convention shall be held and all the other big questions. Judson W. Lyons was there before, that for the past eight years we have not been represented. Such is the life of a people. We are going to Congress some day and not very far off. You may tell the world that I told you this and I am not talking out of my head at that. I want to skip all the places I have been for a little while and walk right into the Texas Baptist Missionary and Educational Convention, one of the lareget and the workinest convention in this country, and it is because the President, all of the officers and minister, laymen, work side by side, or work together like the works in a clock or a watch. For that reason they get there, and put on the table each year not less than $20,000, this time they have gone in the neighborhood of $35,000, and the money continues to come in. The President of the convention is Rev. A. L. Boone, D. D., of Fort Worth, Tex., and a man filled with the Christ spirit and race love. He loves the Baptist Church, his race and his convention, as well as his wife and children. He will make you feel proud of him if you can just meet him one time. It was my pleasure to hear his manly address delivered right here in Texas. He spoke right out against evil, and it was his mission to talk to the south, and in the south, and not go north and talk about the south and against it. He is indeed a manly man, and if you touch him you will find him so. I heard him say: "If we stand upon the mountain of human endeavor and look into the faces of men who came from zero in wealth, learning thrift and religion to occupy places of financiers, professors, poets and ministers of the gospel, and On the eve of the election he is thoroughly convinced that after surveying the great political battle of 1920, up one side and down the other, that Hon. James Hamilton Lewis has more than a splendid fighting chance of being elected Governor of Illinois, that Senator Lewis stood up in the United States Senate and voted and fought against the African Exclusion Bill, while on the other hand Hon. Lawrence Y. Sherman, Republican, ran and hid himself away in a dark closet so that he could not be forced to vote either in favor or against the African Exclusion Bill. COL LEWIS IS "FOR ILLINOIS." Col. Jas. Hamilton Lewis is making more than a narrow party appeal to the voter of Illinois. Senator Lewis points out that the State of Illinois has nothing to do with the League of Nations, national prohibition, or other subjects of that kind. But the state has any number of big issues which concern only the people of Illinois and must be settled by them. Senator Lewis is flatfooted for good housekeeping for Illinois. He wants good roads for the farmer, the kind of road that is not merely a boulevard for touring automobilists who may reside hundreds of miles away, or in other states, but roads designed for the good of the people in the locality in which they are placed and which has to take care of their upkeep. He wants roads that the farmer can move his produce readily to market on. That helps the consumer in the city because he uses that produce. Senator Lewis wants reform of the taxation system of Illinois which now puts the support of the state on the small property owner and the tolling classes and allows great wealth to escape its just burden. He wants more pay for teachers and provision of some sort to show that Illinois apprehends the services of her soldiers in the great war. who at the same time have trained a whole race to be the best law-abiding people in the country. We can but say in the words of the Psalmist 'The Lord hath done great things for us, where we are glad.' "A little more than a generation ago the Negroes were penniless and knew nothing of the value of a dollar. Now they have billions of dollars worth of property and a great many of us live in homes of our own. Very rapid progress made by the race during these fifty-five years of freedom. It is due to many causes, but the principle one is that God and the good people of the nations have been with us." He had men right by his side, and in this connection I would pay my respects to one of the most remarkable men of our country and age, Prof. M. M. Rogers, of Dallas, Tex., who is the secretary of the convention and auditor of the National Baptist Convention, the man who has been doing things and who is still doing things. He is remarkable because of his training and leadership. For many years "Mack" has been the leading spirit in things which meant the development and uplift of our race. He has stood on the watch tower and directed the Baptists of the state to the goal. He has contributed much to the present position of the convention and had much to do with giving its financial standing. These Baptists stand by him to a man, and he is the one man who knows the state from one end to the other and all the sidings. In the National Baptist convention affairs, he served one year as statistician, and the next year was made the auditor_and that is where the HON. EDMUND K. JARECKI One of the most honorable and straightforward Judges of the Municipal Court; the most popular and patriotic Polish-American in this City; at the recent Chicago Bar Association primary, he received 1,394 votes, making him the second highest man; the Cook County Bar Association has also highly endorsed him for re-election. Judge Edmund Kasper Jarecki Democratic candidate for re-election as one of the Judges of the Municipal Court, was born in Posen, Poland, October 21, 1879, he was the son of Maximilian and Josephine (Maligowski) Jarecki, he came to the United States, in 1884, he received his education in the grammar and parochial schools Chicago, St. Stanislaus College, Chicago Manual Training School, LL.B., Northwestern University Law School 1908, M. Kinga Durki of Chicago, June 19, 1907, children: John Thaddeus, Marie Eugenie, Virginia Helena.

You will some day get the real truth. They were here from all parts of the state. Dr. J. E. Knox retired from the field, as superintendent of missions, and other things took place which I will not mention now. Things are in good shape in Texas and you will be delighted to know that Senator Harding is going to get a good vote in Texas. You will be surprised. During my stay in Beaumont I have been in one of the best homes in the city, that of Dr. and Mrs. C. B. Charlton. He is one of the leading dentists of the country, and his work alone is taking him to the top of the ladder. He is just kept busy all the time. I am real proud of what he is doing for his people in this section of our country. I did not get to see so many of the educators this time. I recall the first time I came to town, of seeing a little girl by the name of Thalma Powell, then down in the sixth or seventh grade. Now she has finished that school, gone to the State School at Prairie View, finished there, then to the practical, experienced school teacher. She taught one year in Porl Arthur and from there she is now teaching at her home, Beaumont. I want to congratulate her. Rev. O. N. Hampton, of Paris, was elected superintendent of missions to succeed Dr. J. E. Knox. I do not know whether or not you have met him, but he is one of the leading Baptist preachers in this country, and has been in Paris, for the past 24 years, where he has done a great big work. I have had the pleasure of going there, and I can say that he is a man who is directly interested in his people, and has played an important part in affairs. On every occasion he has pled the cause of his people. I care not what others may have said, he has proven a friend and a race man I am told that some fellow wanted to be sensational, sent a false account to one of the Chicago papers, and although the church met, passed resolutions, telegraphed the same to that Chicago paper showing that Dr. Ampton was not guilty, and telegraphed money with to pay for its publication, but no attention has been paid. Don't be surprised to hear of a lawsuit, for a man must defend his name. After having spent considerable time visiting many eastern cities, Mrs. Mattie Alfred, 3423 2 B. Wabash avenue, has returned home much pleased. OFFICERS INSTALLED.

GOOD ADVISE All members of the race are earnestly asked by M. T. Bailey, President, the Bailey Realty Co., 3638 S.

You can find him at 111th street and Racine avenue, ready to look after you. MUCH BETTER Mrs. Eva Heard, 3912 S.

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.

MORSELL Proprietors 3515 INDIANA AVENUE Preserve Friendship. If a man does not make new acquaintances as he advances through life he will soon find himself alone. A man should keep his friendship in constant repair.—Johnson. Education. Education is the leading of human souls to what is best and making what is best out of them, and these two objects are always attainable together and by the same means. The training which makes men happiest in themselves also makes them most serviceable to others.—Ruskin. microorganical note. A man's calm often causes a woman's storm.—Boston Transcript. Meteosophy. "Moleosophy," is the delineation of character and reading of the past and future by means of moles upon the human face and body. It is an even more ancient occult science than that of palmistry. Mountain Scenery. One of the principal charms of mountain scenery is the solitude.—Buskin. Age and Development. Study of the relation between the total length of life and the time required to reach maturity has brought out an interesting comparison between men and horses. A horse at five years old is said to be, comparatively, as old as a man at twenty, and doubles may be expected to behave, according to equine standards, after the manner of the average college student following human standards. A ten-year-old horse resembles, so far as age and experience go, a man of forty, while a horse that has attained the ripe age of thirty-five is comparable with a man of ninety. V ARNEST H.

It appears that a centenarian has been discovered who is unable to read without glasses or even to walk to market once a week.—Punch, London. To celebrate the advance of the printer's art, particularly its increase in speed, a Caxton memorial Bible was wholly printed and bound in 12 hours in 1877. Only 100 copies were struck off. Simplicity. In character, in manners, in style, in all things, the supreme excellence is simplicity.—Longfellow. Color Note. "The sound of a trumpet is scarlet," sings a poet. "Not the nasal trumpet, that's blew.—Boston Transcript." Might Be Condemned. It's a lucky thing for some architects of their own fortunes that there were no building inspectors around while the job was being done. Lucky She isn't Mad. It was an unfeeling married man who declared that his wife is pensive when she is not expensive.—Boston Transcript. Must Be Qualified. According to a morning paper another antarctic expedition is to be organized very shortly. We understand that only those who can stand a northern wind on all four sides need apply. —Punch, London.
