Judge John R. Caverly, While Presiding Over The Small Claims Branch of The Municipal Court of Chicago, In The Spring of 1919, In The Most Short Sighted and Arbitrary Manner Ruled, That No Newspaper Owner Could Collect a Bill For Advertising, Unless He Could Produce a Signed Contract by the Party Who Authorized It, Thereby Enabling Hon. Anton J. Cermak to Run Roughshod Over Julius F. Taylor for Thirty-Five Dollars. On Monday afternoon, October 28, 1918, while the writer was rushing past the headquarters of Hon. Anton J. Cermak, who was the Democratic candidate for sheriff of Cook County at that time, his headquarters being located on La Salle Street, right in front of the City Hall, his head manager, Mr. Sonny Sunshine, who was foolish enough to labor under the impression that he would be elected alderman from the 12th Ward in 1921, appeared at the front door of the headquarters and shouted to us that "the old man or the Boss wanted to see us," meaning Mr. Cermak. We informed Mr. Sonny Sunshine that we would be back shortly and along about 6 o'clock that same and along we returned and found Mr. Cermak in Alderman John Toman was conversing with him and Alderman Toman, who is a big-hearted, royal good fellow, informed Mr. Cermak that it would do him lots of good to have a write-up, along with his cut, in the columns of The Broad Ax. After Mr. Cermak had finished conversing with Alderman Toman, he walked over to where we were standing and began to talk to us in relation to his write-up and cut appearance in the last issue of The Broad Ax before the election. Among other things Mr. Cermak went on to state that he had expended a great deal of money, that he did not want to pay out any more money until after election, that whether he was defeated or elected sheriff of Cook County, that he would take care of our bill just the same. As we had transacted some business with him at the primaries and he had promptly paid his bill after the articles had appeared in the columns of this paper, and at the aldermanic election in the spring of 1918, at his request we published the list of the aldermanic candidates who had received the endorsement of the United Societies, of which Mr. Cermak was secretary, and at that time he informed us that "just as soon as you bring me a copy of the paper containing the ad you will receive a check for the bill," which we did. So therefore we did not hesitate to accept the article and the cut of Mr. Cermak for publication in The Broad Ax, for prior to that time our business dealings with Mr. Cermak had been very pleasant. The article and cut appeared in the columns of this paper November 2, 1918, word for word just as it appears in another column of this issue of the paper. As stated before, all of the article except the last paragraph was prepared by Mr. Sonny Sunshine, and it and the cut was passed over to us by him right in the presence of Mr. Cermak. Twenty-five copies of The Broad Ax were delivered at the headquarters of Mr. Cermak on that same Saturday, November 2, and he was well pleased with the article as it appeared in the columns of The Broad Ax. Mr. Cermak was not elected Sheriff of Cook County, falling far short of receiving the majority of the votes cast at that election. Several days thereafter we forwarded him a bill for advertising for thirty-five dollars, which we thought was fair and reasonable considering that he was a defeated or an unlucky candidate. Several weeks went by without receiving any response from him. Finally, about December 1, 1918, we called in to see him at his office in the City Hall Square building and on touching on our bill or claim against him, Mr. Cermak intimated that the bill was too high; that later on he would send THE BROAD AX his check for what he thought would be about right. There was no further effort on our part to bother with the matter until shortly after January 1, 1919, at that time we sent Mr. Cermak another bill, and not receiving any response from him up to January 20, 1919, we made up our mind that it was useless for us to further attempt to settle our advertising account with him, and near the middle of January, 1919, we turned our account or claim against him over to our attorney, Hon. James G. Cotter, now Assistant United States District Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois, for collection, at the same time instructing him to settle it up some way or other as we had no time to fool with it any longer, and we further advised Mr. Cotter to write Mr. Cermak a letter and plainly inform him that we had not the slightest desire to cause him any trouble in the matter, nor, to give him any unpleasant publicity through the columns of this newspaper; that we wanted his friendship and not his enemity. Mr. Cotter received not one line from Mr. Cermak in response to his polite and gentlemanly letter to him, then after waiting two weeks and no response we instructed Mr. Cotter to write Mr. Cermak a second letter and inform him that unless he straightened out this matter by March 1, 1919, that suit would be instituted against him in the Municipal Court of Chicago for the sum of thirty-five dollars and costs. No attention was paid to the second letter sent to Mr. Cermak by Mr. Cotter. In the meantime we ran into Mr. Cermak, corner of Clark and Van Buren streets shortly after he was re-elected to the City Council from the 12th Ward and we very pleasantly informed him that it was far from our intention to cause him the slightest trouble, but that we would feel greatly delighted to have the matter settled up at once. Our humble plea in that direction bore no fruit. Then we requested Mr. Cotter to start suit against him in the Municipal Court of Chicago for the full amount of our small claim against him, which he did, and Judge John R. Caverly was presiding over the small claims branch of the Municipal Court when the case was reached. It may not be true, but some claim that before Judge Caverly appeared on the bench that they thought that they observed Mr. Cermak emerging from his private chambers and that they were under the impression that possibly he had been conversing in relation to being transformed into a bright shining white angel, and winging his way into heaven. However, that may be, when the case was reached, seemingly Judge Caverly closed his ears and eyes tight against all reason. We produced the cut of Mr. Cermak and a copy of The Broad Ax, containing the article and testified as to the main facts in the case and as to how much the other candidates paid whose advertisements occupied that same amount of space which was occupied by the cut and write-up of Mr. Cermak. Then Mr. Cermak swore that we had approached him in the City Council Committee rooms and had offered to accept ten dollars for the full amount of our claim against him which was untrue, for even unto this day we have lived without his ten dollars; he did not deny that he never had any conversation with us in connection with the write-up and so on. Mr. Sonny Sunshine testified that he did not know us and that he had only seen us M. J. B.

Mr. Cotter, who easily ranks with the best lawyers in this city, lugged six or ten law books into the court room in order to establish his case on a firm foundation and to refer to certain passages in them in reference to the law points which would apply to the questions involved. When Mr. Cotter stated that that is our case and began to back up his contents with the law, Judge Caverly sprang to his feet in a most excited manner and shouted law or no law books, unless you can produce a written contract, duly signed by Mr. Cermak setting forth that he had promised to pay a fixed sum for the advertising in question, you have no standing in this court. Mr. Clerk, call the next case, and that was Judge Caverly's crudely or rough, idea of even-handed Justice in Chicago. Just before the Judicial election last June we met Judge Caverly face to face in the Sherman House, and looking him right straight in the eye we informed him that he gave us a raw deal in the Cermak case; but at that time we would not throw one straw in his way as he was then a candidate for Judge of the Circuit Court. We also informed him that in our humble opinion he had placed a false construction on the law and contracts for some years ago, when he was an candidate for Judge of the Superior Court; that he advertised in the columns of The Broad Ax; that he was defeated; nevertheless he promptly HON.

The issue of The Broad Ax of Nov d 2, 1918, was in every way a humdinger. It consisted of ten pages d and it contained 33 cuts of the lea- ding Democratic and Republican can- didates in Cook County. It ran clear over the Standard Opinion, the Eagle t. and all of the other weekly newspapers d in this city. The following were some of the most prominent candidates whose cuts and write-ups appeared in its columns: Hon. Robert M. Sweitzer, Clerk of the County Court; the late Judge Thomas F. Scully, Judge of the County Court; Hon. Patrick A. Nash, for member of the Board of Review; Hon. Harry Olson, Chief Justice of the Municipal Court of Chicago; Hon. William J.

Appleton & Co. Price $1.75, with postage $1.85. I read recently in a southern paper of a college professor who in lecturing upon recent literature written by Negroes, placed my novel, "The Shadow," as the work of a colored novelist. My ambition as an author makes me never read a mistake like this without feeling deeply complimented. It must show that I have sufficiently penetrated into the thought life of the Negro race to be able to depict it, not as an outsider, but as one with understanding. George Madden Martin, who by the way is a woman, will never be mistaken as to her race. When she writes of "The Children of the Mist" she is an outsider, looking at her characters sympathetically, tenderly, but as a superior who tries to make allowance for an inferior being. For myself, I are weary of this attitude whether it refer to white or black, rich or poor. Why should the person who has been born into comfort and has had every advantage feel superior to one who has been born without opportunity for education, for comfort, for health of mind or body? These beautiful, aristocratic owners of slaves whom George Madden Martin depicts so lovingly scarcely touched life compared with the ragged, untutored blacks who toiled to keep their owners in idleness. And no amount of tender sympathy can make the writer with the psycheology of the slave owner identify herself with the inner life of those whom she tries to describe. After this introduction I am ready to talk about a really, remarkable book once you accept its viewpoint. For George Madden Martin is an accomplished story teller, who delighted us with her tales of "Emmy Lou," and who, when she comes to tell of "The Children of the Mist" describes some unusual and vivid incidents. The first story, "The Flight," is the best in the book. Sherman is marching to the sea, burning houses behind him, and you see Miss Susan Begue, owner of Scuppernong Hall, standing outside of her burning home, with two young girl nieces, and five slaves, old Maum Harriet, brought from Africa, her daughter and three little boys, grandchildren. They must travel that night fifteen miles to Cinnamon Court House, the roads are full of troops 5 CENTS per copy Over The Court of St Short to News- ertising, by the Hon. Julius F.

At once the old Negro takes the lead. She is the protector of them all. And how she guides them through the swamp is one of the most wonderful slave stories that has ever been written of the South. You thrill when you find Miss Begue, the mistress, coming for the first time upon the slave's secret, the hard firm foot path traversing to the white inan, the penetrable swamp. "A continuous na-row ribbon stretching ahead; winding in and out across marshes, through morass and around lagoons, linking hummock to island and island to some uphrust of solid footing in a sea of quaking bog. One grasped that this winding ribbon was a road . . . a work of careful and painstaking construction, a corduroy foundation of felled trees, built upon with the turfy sods of marsh grass, filled in and surfaced with bog mud and clay, now hard and dry with time and usage." Here slaves have traveled from plantation to plantation, and here runaways have been lost to their owners and sometimes have survived for years. And here one of Miss Begue's own slaves, who fied from her plantation, helps her and the two young girls to safety. The other seven stories vary in interest, the best of them, "The Inskip Niggah" moving like "The Flight" about the theme of the lady of quality and the faithful servant. This must at times have been a beautiful relationship, but one grows a little weary at hearing about it, and always from the master's pen. But unquestionably beautiful is the ending of "The Inskip Niggah" where the southern lady, Miss Lavinia, penniless, neglected in her pride by once devoted friends, in danger of being sent to the poorhouse, at the last is saved by the wisdom and kindness of her old servant. Laying her head upon his shoulder, she looks into the faces of those others of her own race who did nothing and says: "If God had not willed many things, it would not have come about that out of so much friendship their emerged for me the miracle of a friend." Here the attitude of mistress and servant vanishes and two spirits meet on an equality. Books like "The Children in the Mist" do much good. They show the difficulties that beset the Negro's path and they breathe a very real and tender sympathy. But I doubt if they really portray the black man. MRS. YOUNG BETTER of s Mrs. Lou Ella Young, 3556 Giles faves, well known in fraternal circles, is much better after being confined to her home on account of illness for more than a month under the pro- fessional care of Dr. George C.

Majors Sunday morning the writer attended services at Berean Baptist Church. We trust that Rev. Robinson of St Mark's M. E. Church will take note that we were at church anyhow. We had often heard Rev. Wm. S. Braddan preach, and we knew that his sermon would be instructive, but we had never heard the Berean Baptist choir conducted by our friend Mr. Yarborough, assisted by Miss Estella Bonds at the pipe organ. There is something very striking at this church, the congregation is well sustained, and good religious fellowship seems to abide in the hearts of all. Then there is the quality and status and personnel, and well perhaps magnetism of the minister in charge. To say the least, Dr. Braddan is outspoken and free to expound the noble principles of religion as he sees and believes in it. For thirty minutes perhaps he spoke eloquently, but simply, on the subject, "S. O. S," and wove the sacred fabric richly with the silken threads of a Redeemer's love. He told of an incident which took place while on shipboard en route to France. For hours he said their ship lay nineteen miles off the harbor, and the men were disturbed and wanted to know the cause. He himself approached the captain of the vessel to ascertain the reason for their waiting at anchor so long. The captain replied: "We cannot go farther without the ship's pilot. The sea is a vast checkerboard of mines, and no one knows the way through the perils of this deep sea but the pilot." The story was apropos—bejeweled the eloquent sermon and was the forerunner of a plea made to the unrighteous that was both touching and pathetic, with an invitation such as one very seldom hears. At Berean everything goes with a clocklike regularity. The clerk was very easily heard in reading his announcements, or expressing the wish of those who came forward to unite themselves with the church. The collection was taken without noise or flutter, and the general scenes were pleasing to the eyes of strangers, causing one to feel that intelligent emphasis so agreeably observed in the kindly expressions on the faces of all. If you have never been to Berean Church on Sunday morning you have missed a good deal. The choir sang sweetly, reverently, and just a bit over anxious in the expression and modulation. ust a bit less fervent, less power, and we don't know where one might go to hear better voices, richly laden with their cargo of love. THE AMATEUR MINSTREL BOYS WILL HOLD FORTH AT THE EIGTH REGIMENT ARMORY EASTER MONDAY EVENING, APRIL 17, FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE OLD FOLKS HOME Many of the ladies composing the Four Hundred of the cream of high society among the Afro-Americans in this city are busily engaged with their dressmakers in getting their new gowns or costumes ready for Easter Sunday, April 16, and for the annual Amateur Minstrel Show and Dance, which will be held on Monday evening following Easter Sunday, at the Eighth Regiment Armory, 3517 Giles avenue, for the benefit of the Old Folks Home. CHICAGO, ILL. SATURDAY, MARCH 18, 1922 HON. JAMES H. LAWLEY AND HON. MATT. A. MUELLER WILL BE RENOMINATED AND RE-ELECTED TRUSTEES OF THE SANITARY DISTRICT OF CHICAGO. Hon. James H. Lawley, Republican candidate for renomination for Trustee of the Sanitary District of Chicago, has for the past six years honestly and faithfully served all the people residing in this city and county in that capacity. Mr. Lawley is a native of this great city, being born in it in 1876. He received his education in its public schools and later on graduated from the Illinois College of Law with high honors. For ten years he was one of the highly honored members of the city council from the Fourteenth Ward, ably serving on its finance committee and other important committees of that body with the unqualified endorsement of all the leading civic bodies in this city. For many years he has been prominent in benevolent and fraternal work. He is an honored member of the Phi Alpha Delta League fraternity, Garden City, Lodge A. F. & A.M., York Chapter, 148, R. A. M., Columbia Commandery No. 63, Medinah Temple A. A. C. N. M. S., Knights of Pythias, Loyal Order of Moose, National Union, and Fraternal Order of Eagles. In 1916 Mr. Lawley was chosen one of the Trustees of the Sanitary District of Chicago and in every way he has amply proven himself to be worthy to be renominated on Tuesday, April 11, for his present responsible position. Hon. Matt. A. Mueller, warm associate and running mate of Mr. Law- PROMINENT AMERICANS COM MEND BOOKER T. WASHING TON MEMORIAL TO BE UN VEILED AT TUSKEGEE INSTI TUTE ON APRIL 5 Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, March 14th.-Honorable Newton D. Baker, former Secretary of War, in a letter to Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, says; "If one looks back twenty-five years, he can not fail to realize that the situation of the Negro in the United States is immeasurably better than it was, I doubt whether any single factor has contributed so much to the better situation as did the life work, example and teaching of Booker Washington. Honorable Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., Assistant Secretary of the Navy, in commenting upon the unveiling of the memorial says of Booker T. Washington that "he was really a great man because he combined practical achievement with idealism." Honorable Josephus Daniels, former Secretary of the Navy is "sure that the people of the whole country of all creeds and races will be interested in the unveiling of the statue to Booker T. Washington. His career illustrates the possibilities open to the men of his race in the South. * * * Booker T. Washington looked for development for his race from friendly relations among the white people among whom they dwelt and from whom he always secured co-operation. His statue will, therefore, stand for better understanding between the races and better advantages for his own race." Honorable Clark Howell, editor of the Atlanta Constitution, says: "I do not hesitate to say 'Booker Washington stands pre-eminent as having rendered the most conspicuous service of any member of his race, not only in improving the condition of the race but in bringing about such an understanding between the two races as is essential to the welfare of both." The Memorial, which costs about $25,000 and is the gift of the colored people to America, represents individual contributions from more than 50,000 colored people. This devotion, on the part of the colored people themselves to the ideals for which Booker T. Washington stood, is also shown in the comment of Ray Stannard Baker who says: "Wherever in the South, I found a prosperous Negro enterprise, a thriving business place, a good home, there I was almost sure to find Booker T. Washington's picture over the fire-place or a little frame motto expressing his gospel of work and service." AT HOME AGAIN Mrs. T. L. Scott, wife of Rev. T. L. Scott, is home again at 4543 St. Lawrence ave., after a confinement of several days at Provident Hospital. WELLS BACK R. W. Wells, president of the Wells Book Concern, 3710 Indiana ave., is back from Virginia where he has spent several weeks having been called there on account of the death of his mother. ley, was also elected as one of the Trustees of the Sanitary District of Chicago in 1916. Mr. Mueller is one of the most popular German-American Republicans in Cook County and being a high-class business man, the vast majority of the voters residing in this city and county made no mistake when they elected him one of the Trustees of the Sanitary District of Chicago. Mr. Mueller has been an honored resident of this great city since 1883, and his first employment was in the Union Stock Yards. With various companies he remained in the yards until 1902, when he was appointed Real Estate Deputy in the Board of Review. He served ably in this capacity until 1909 when he was elected Alderman from the 29th Ward. Later he established the real estate firm of Matt. A. Mueller & Co., and won recognition as a business man of energy and honesty. He is a man of family and a member of the Modern Woodmen, National Union, the Plattdeutchen Guild, was a member of the Knights of Labor and a member of other fraternal and benevolent organizations. It can be stated in all honesty and truthfulness that Mr. Mueller, as one of the Trustees of the Sanitary District of Chicago, has made an honorable record for efficiency in the faithful discharge of all of his duties as such, and he can rest assured that he will be renominated for Sanitary Trustee as a part of his reward for services well rendered in the past by a majority of the voters at the primaries Tuesday, April 11. DEATH OF GEORGE J. TERRELL The middle of last week, George J. Terrell, who was one of the best known colored men on the South Side, closed his eyes in death. Leakage of the heart was the immediate cause of his death. Mr. Terrell was prominent in secret society circles; he was a member of the Elks, Masons, Knights of Pythias, and several other fraternal orders. For some years past he honorably served as Quartermaster, Major-General of the Uniform Rank, Knights of Pythias throughout the world, serving on the staff of Major-General Robert R. Jackson, of that order. Funeral services were held over his remains Sunday afternoon, at Walters A. M. E. Zion Church, 38th and Dearborn streets. Many members of the various orders which he was a member of, headed by the K. P. Band, paraded through the streets. His saddle horse, which he always rode in the parades, walked close behind the hearse, containing his remains. Less than one half of the members of the orders which he belonged to, and his hosts of friends, were unable to get in the church to attend the services. His remains were laid to rest by the side of his wife, Mrs. Terrell, in Oakwoods Cemetery, who only passed away a few months ago. Mr. Terrell for many years was closely identified with Hon. Thomas Carey, and was the same as one of the family in the palatial home of Mr. Carey, at 4427 Grand boulevard, and whenever Mr. and Mrs. Carey were at their winter home at Los Angeles, Calif., Mr. Terrell had charge of his home here and had charge of the young lady members of the family. In fact his conduct was so upright all the time that he enjoyed the fullest confidence of Mr. Carey in every respect and all the members of his household. Peace unto him for all time to come. A REVIEW By J. Milton Sampson of the Chicago Urban League Citizens of both races in the city of Chicago will do well to provide themselves with a copy of the March, 1922, number of "The World Tomorrow." This number is devoted almost entirely to a symposium on the Negro question and contains articles by such well known persons as Eugene Kinckle Jones, Charles S. Johnson, and L. Hollingsworth Wood of the National Urban League, Dr. DuBois, and Jessie Fauset of the Crisis, Mary McDowell of Chicago and Edward T. Ware of Atlanta University, besides articles by the editorial staff of the magazine. Such topics are discussed as the "Negro's Contribution to America," "The Negro in Industry," "The Myth of Racial Inferiority," "The Poison of Race Prejudice," "The Black Man's Burden," "Social Equality and Race Mixture" and "Approaches to a Solution." The articles as a whole are very sympathetic toward the short comings, handicaps, and the wonderful accomplishments of the Negro. They are characterized by breadth of thought, and the topics are for the most part discussed in such a way as to enlist friendship for, rather than antagonism to, the Negro. It [Name] HON. MATT. A. MUELLER Republican Candidate for Renom District of Chicago to Be V April 11.

The inhibitions however, of his previous life were so strong that he could not enter fully into the life of the white people around him.

Ministers Union decided a short time age to limit their funeral sermons to one hour. Undertaker David H. Howard appeared before the Union and called attention to the fact that funeral sermons had been taking an extraordinary length of time and that the sermons lasted from one to five hours. Mr. Howard's unusual statement was backed up by Rev. R. H. Ward of Allen Temple Church. He is reported to have said that more than half of the colored ministers spent more time eulogizing the dead than in preaching to their flocks. A comparison was made in the course of the debate of the value of the time spent in attending funerals and its economic value if put in in hard work. One speaker, himself a minister, asserted that a man could earn enough money in the time spent listening to five hour funeral services to support two-thirds of the Negro schools of the city. Most of the ministerial brethren seemed to favor the proposal and unanimously voted to limit their sermons hereafter to one hour. ```markdown ``` ```markdown ``` Hon. Patrick J.

No man was better fitted for this task: America had afforded him the fundamentals by birth and educa- tion. He had fought in Cuba to strike the despotic shackles of Spanish rule from the limbs of countless thou- sands of his race. He had drawn in- spiration from service in Hayti where the illustrious Toussaunt L’Overture had humbled the haughty soldiers of France and Spain to proclaim liberty for the masses whose heritage had been slavery. One may well pause and reflect upon the history of San Domingo where a black man was the first to write a constitution in which freedom to worship one’s God after the dictates of conscience was to ap- pear for the first time in the history of the world. “In paying honor to the memory of Colonel Charles Young, soldier, gen- tleman, and scholar, we are receiving more thin we are giving. His ex- ample is a marker which will point out the way for future generations to reach the highest and noblest qualifi- cations of citizenship. He has shown to the world what man could accom- plish by education, patriotism, and close attention to duty. We may best honor him by following in his foot- steps—with high ideals of citizenship and a: standard of brotherly love ‘which will more closely unite us as jan American people. “At thia hour when the world is seeking “a lasting peace which will jend the terrible scourge of war, 2 jnote of warning may be sounded. No |peace from within or without a Na- tion can be lasting unless the ele- ments of peace are encased in the hearts of men—class hatred—religious color or race can bring bat one re- sult—bloody strife and war unending. “God made all men equal and no where do we find that He condemned ‘men of any color or creed to bonds of slavery. He has said that all shall be equal before the Throne of Judg- ment and that all shail be judged by their record in life. “America is the Srst country in the world to create 2 government which Hollows she Movies smaciname ‘Master and even in this land of erty over a half a century passed fron the time of formation of our govern- mental body before the great eman- cipator, Abraham Lincoln, inforced the Constitutional provision making all men equal under the law. “God grant that the day will come when the minds of men will bow to the will of the Creator and that re- ligious difference and racial prejudice will be eliminated. “Men who were called to the de- fense of this country and its flag were not questioned as to their fraternal or religious beliet—the color of their skin was no bar to service—and the dust of theiremortal remains has been jp- termingled in the soil of Cuba, Phif pines, Mexico, France, Italy and Si, beria in the cause of Liberty. Insep- arable in death, may this same God who is all just and powerful so merge our social life of the living, so that we may unite all Americans in one Breat brotherhood of Patriotic Citi zenship—a brotherhood which has for its principal objects the serving of one God and One Country. “On the Ith day of last November in the City of Washington in the Dis- trict of Columbia—representatives of this Nation and of the Allied Nations gathered to do honor to an unknown hero who died for his Country on the battlefield of France. “This ceremony symbolized the ideal which I wish to express here today—This «unkown hero—was he Catholic, Protestatnt, Jew or Agnos tic—was his color black, white, red brown or yellow? “The answer is simple. He was ar American soldier—who gave his al for the liberty of Mankind.” CANADA VS. CAROLINA _ Matthew Bullock, a Negro who ‘escaped from a mob in Norlina, North Carolina, and finally crossed the bor- der into Canada, is the subject of a heated dispute between North Caro- lina s governor and the Dominion De- partment of Justice. Held by the ‘Hamilton potice on advices from the southern state, which accused him of attempted murder, Bullock will be liverated Friday of this week by the Ontario magistrate unless evidence showing his guilt is presented. Thus far, the Carolina governor has refused to allow witnesses to be sent to Ham- uton to testify. He wires that treaty relations with Canada should guaran- tee the return to this country of “a desperate criminal,” and in the next breath refuses to be subjected to the “jumiliation of having to appear be- sore some judge in a petty judicial proceeding in Canada.” If Bullock is a despe-ate criminal, swe proceeding to recapture him can- not be designated as “petty.” So think ‘the Canadians. They learn that Bul- lock’s brother has already been lynched by a Norlina mob, and that a fresh rope is ready for Matthew, with- out formality of trial by jury, which they look ypon as am essential pre- liminary to capital punishment. There is nothing anti-American in Canada's attitude, as some southern papers are inclined to think. Bullock has been an exemplary citizen since his arrival in the Dominion, and. the Hamiltonians, after looking him over, promptly raised a fund for his de- fense. Remembering that his brother was yanked from the Norlina jail and lynched on a charge of inciting race riot, they have decided that until the Canadian law demanding proof of ‘guilt has been satisfied Bullock will be protected. This example of British justice stirs resentment, in Bullock's home neigh- borhood, but nowhere else in this lib- erty-loving republic. North Carolina, it is said, started the stringing up solution for suspects when a Tory was hanged in the 18th century at Lymch Creek, whence comes the name ‘of this savage pastime. However ‘that may be, Carolina seems to have ‘set the pace for lynching “bees” ever ‘since. Canada will save her the in- famy of another, in Bullock's case, if possible—The British American, Chi- cago, Ilinois. ‘he latest in the Bullock case is that he has been released and he will ‘remain in Hamilton, Canada, and he ‘will not be forced to return to Old Lynching State of North Carolina to be hung up by the neck until he is dead and his body riddled with bullets by 2 mob of white Christian gentle- ‘men —E@itor.

Williams has‘ passed into the Great Beyond? When this news was hand- ed down to me I could hardly believe it, but they tell me that it is true, and of course there is a vacancy that will not be filled. ‘There is a oneness in our race, and that is to be regretted. We have only one man in the class and when he is gone, none other to take his place, but this will not always be. I recall the queen of songs, Flora Batson, and when she passed into the great beyond there was no one left here to take her place. She filled her individual place, and while there are others, but none in the class in which she ranked. The same is true with the Hyers Sis- ters, Madam Seleka. James Europe had his own place, and when that coward sent him to the other world, we had no one to say step up and take the place of James Europe. Did you know Bert Williams? He ‘was all alone in his class. He made people laugh—in fact he could almost make a man laugh his fool brains out. but then that is not to be considered now, for Bert Williams is no more. He has paid the price that we all must sooner or later pay, the only thing being now where will each of us spend eternity? I want you to ask yourself that question, and see if your baggage is all ready, and whenever the train comes for you you will be ready to go. You must answer for yourself. As the old woman is quoted to have said, “Every tub must stand ‘on its own end.” As I bask in the Florida sunshine, eat oranges and grapefruit, see beau- tifal yards with flowers in bloom, and see the members of the other race around in luxury and splendor, and here and there signs of proscrip- tion, I think of that beautiful land ‘over yonder, and then I think of that place of perpetual summer, and I ask myself, “Which place is going to draw the color line?” How will the white man get along down there. Will we all be one? If not why not? Where will the white folks be, and then where will my people be? If that fellow so full of prejudice should hap- pen to be in heaven, and he be as- signed in the same quarters with a black man, then it would be just like Being in the hot place to him. « While T am not giving much con- cern about myself, I am thinking about my brother in, white, who has Passed so many laws to humiliate me down here on earth. Who will not permit me in certain sections of my ‘own country to ride in a bed car, who will not permit me to eat in the eat. ing car, and who forces me to live in certain sections of the cities and will not put in sewers, lights, and then wants me to be healthy. and strong. ‘Who will not permit my boys and girls to get a real education, only here and there. For there are many places in Florida where they have school for ‘us only three months, and when that is over school is closed and stand closed for nine months. When they do take on teachers they are not re quired to know anything in many cases. God looked down one day and saw how, the hellions were acting, and just shipped a number of our peopl with deserving children to sections o} the country where they can become ‘educated and help to take care of the situation.

Washington opened many doors and extended many school+terms, but he has gone, and we find Dr. Robert R. Moton doing his part today to have our children educated. He is pleading for an open school door for the Amer- ican youth. He is larger than his race or color, for he wants all American girls and boys educated. He is a great map, and I am glad that he was selected to succeed Dr. Booker T. Washington. All the nation will pay tribute to Booker T. Washington, April 5, when the monument will be unveiled. There will be many representative men and women present on this occasion. Those who loved the good name made by Dr. Washington will make their way to Tuskegee if they can only find the price. I am going to be there, and I think I will be the guest of Mrs. Kate Gover and her husband, who is the banker there. It will be a pleas- ure for me to see these good people. I will have my quarters in Rocker- feller hall, but spend idle time out at this mansion. Will you join me there? Let us all be on hand and be there on time. I expect to make my way there a day or so ahead of time. ‘What part will you take? Will you spend just a little money to pay a tribute to this great man of our race, who lives in the hearts of Americans today? You will see that I must like this sunshine down here. I am this week the guest of the Central Florida Af- rican Methodist Episcopal conference, and Bishop John Hurst, D. D., of Bal- timore is the presiding officer, and honey it is true that he is one more presiding officer and knows his busi- ness. He is one of those men who is posted, and then in addition to this he took time to get prepared before he entered the ministry to hold a charge. He is a direct product of Wilberforce University. His work tells for itself. He has made his way to the hearts of the people. Speaking of the Bishop making his way to the hearts of his men, I heard them talk about him ane day for over an hour. They went back to the time that Florida was divided into many factions and how it tried the souls of bishops to preside over them, and they usually went from Florida to have, having a through ticket. In this number they spoke of Bishop J. C. Embry, who was presiding when charges were brought against the late John H. Dickerson, and out he went, but Bishop Embry went to heaven, then followed Bishop James Anderson Handy, Bishop Moses Buckingham Sditer, and while Bishop Tanner did fiot go to heaven, he was unable to do any more work. “But,” said one of the speakers, “in 1912 there came to us diréct from the general conference, and brand new, a man whose name was John (Hurst), and when he got here the factions tried to lay hands, but he said to us all, ‘I am determined to know nothing among you save Jesus Christ. I am here as bishop of all’ “Some of the men declared that he could not stand om such a plank, and they were determined to make him show his hand one way or another, but this little man backed up in a cor- ner, and struck right and left, until you could see the feathers and fur fly.

Reproduction from the Columns of The Broad Ax November 2, 1918 The Present Popular Chief Bailiff of the Municipal Court of Chicago and Democratic Candidate for Sheriff of Cook County. Reproduction from the Columns of The Broad Ax November 2, 1918 “He has served the people of Iili- nois as Legislator and the people of Chicago as Alderman. He is now Chief Bailiff of the Municipal Court. He stands on his record. “He is Chicago's moving spirit of the Czecho-Slovak propaganda, which received the approval of President Wilson and the Congress of the United States. “Mr. Cermak is President of the National Army Aid Association, aid- ing the men in Uncle Sam's service. “A man who has been an energetic worker for his country and his own people—whose patriotism has been backed by his efforts—can be relied upon to exercise the same persever- ance, honesty and efficiency for the benefit of the people of Chicago and his constituency. Mr. Cermak de- serves your votes. As Chief Bailiff of the Municipal Court Mr. Cermale has instituted ‘many reforms in conduct. ing the affairs of that office. Some ‘of them are as follows, which prove that he is a man of initiative, a man of the highest executive ability, a tire- Jess worker, and a humanitarian in ‘the noblest sense of the word. Bailiff’s Benevolent Association “Few men are compelled to witness more misery than the bailiffs, who by ‘order of Court must dispossess ten- ants, who are unable to pay their rent. Mr. Cermak conceived the idea and organized an association, whose funds are used to pay the rent and give such other help to the poor, as conditions require. . Creditors Protected “Sales are properly advertised and conducted by expert auctioneers. Thus greater returns are secured for the creditors and all favoritism and star He struck so hard until the white flay went up, and factions began to die.” T have noted the result of this, be- cause Edward Waters College is no longer a plaything, but se ts a real col- lege. Credit has been restored and they have indeed a strong man as president, Prof. John C. Wright, who comes from New York, and who is 2 trained man. Bishop Hurst is accompanied in his work by his wife, who is a leader among the women, and believe me when I tell you she is doing a great work, lifting up the standard of wom- anhood, and at the same time point- ing the way td the young women. Many girls have been inspired and helped by this wonderful character. She is a worker, and a women of ability. All the time she is found right by the side of her husband, and now and then comes a kind word to the men who need encouragement. She is a wonder. TI don't know,. but the men declare that tpey are gong, to get Bishop Hurst back again. Now I am proud to note those mossbacks, those men who would de- stroy a man because he is a man, were unable to get that noted educator, that leader of men, Prof. W. J- Hale, of Nashville.

BOTH MEN AND WOMEN CAN VOTE FOR MR. LAWLEY Beautiful Mount Glenwood The Coming Cemetery of Chicago and Cook County Mount Glennwood Cemetery, located on the C. & E. I. Railroad, between the oak trees and the woodland, contains three acres, more or less, of land which has been improved at an expense of Two (2,800) Dollars, which improves consist of landscaped, macadam roadways, trees, shrubbery, three sets of ornamental iron gates, a chapel, and superintendent's quarters, modern improvements. Thorn Creek runs through the cemetery, adding greatly to its beauty. The cemetery is surrounded by a County Forest Preserve, and thereby receives the benefit of the natural beauty of those tracts. As a part of the revenue of the company about $1.50 per year will be collected for watering the lots and cutting the grass for the purpose of keeping the cemetery in first-class condition. This is a sum considerably less than is usually paid by other cemeteries for like services. It cannot be too strongly emphasized and borne in mind that while the cemetery one of the most beautiful and sensitive environments, yet the price of $50.00, not to include the stock bonus, which is easily worth $50.00, represents about 25 per cent of the selling of lots in the average cemetery. Do not fall to secure one of these choice lots while they last. It is the coming Oak Woods of cemeteries in this city. Every family and household should have a tree in the future for our bereaved one just as we do in everything else. Agents will call and see you upon request, provide full information. Call the office by phone, Vlipom 6254, or visit our office at 3125 South State street. Come and select a choice lot while you can.

He never really thought seriously of investing in bonds until he was married a few years ago. Being in-experienced in financial matters, he wrote several letters to Ralph, an attorney friend of his, who answered all his questions in a very simple and clear manner. We have just published a booklet called "An Investor's Letters" which contains all of Ralph's and Bill's correspondence. You will find it very interesting and it may clear up some of the questions you have in your own mind about investment matters. We shall be glad to send "An Investor's Letters" free of charge or obligation to anyone who requests it.
