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

around the City Council Committee rooms once or twice.
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

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.

The late Judge Thomas F. S. scully distributed one thousand extra copies of the paper among his friends in his ward, for his cut was on the front page of that issue of The Broad Ax. It can be readily noted that this ra-

"THE CHILDREN IN THE MIST"
By George Madden Martin. Published by D. 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

and dangerous. Leaving their burning home behind them the eight journey on together.
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.

DR. BRADDAN PREACHES ELO-
QUENT SERMON AT BEREAN
CHURCH, SUNDAY, MARCH 12
By Dr. M. A. 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.

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.

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.

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."

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

also contains a story by Dorothy Canfield, the well known novelist, who creates a poignant character,—a man reared in the South, possessing a sensitive soul, who later settles in Vermont where he is accepted without the restrictions which he has suffered in the South. 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. For instance, he couldn't bring himself to go to a dance because all the girls were white, and he was unable to conquer the haunting fear of insult or the vexing uncertainty of his reception. It is a full magazine and nothing but a full reading can do it justice.
PREACHERS WILL CUT THEIR
SHOUTING PREACHING DOWN
Atlanta, Ga.-The A. M. E. 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.

The Regular Democratic Candidate for Treasurer of Cook County, Who Will Come In Under The Wire Far Ahead of All of His So-Called Opponents Primary Day, Tuesday, April 11.
It is indeed very pleasing to state that Hon. Elliott W. Sproul, who has the courage of his honest convictions, and who firmly believes in fair play, justice, and in the equality of all men before the law, regardless of their race or nationality, possessing these broad fundamental views, it was easy for Congressman Sproul to record his vote in favor of the passage of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, standing close by the side of its author, Hon. L. C. Dyer, Hon. Martin B. Madden, and the other friends of the colored race in Congress.
It should be a great pleasure to all the colored men and women, residing in the Third Congressional District to record their votes, for his re-nomination at the primaries. Tuesday, April 11th.
Mr. W. R. Sproul, president of Sproul & Co., son of Congressman Sproul, will manage the campaign in his father.

“History will perpetuate the story
of Colonel Charles Young who crossed
the seas to spread the seeds of lib-
erty and self government in the fertile
soil of Africa where benighted men
‘of his race had looked out through
the ages for a Moses who was to lead
them to a promised land where free-
dom and equal opportunity would be
a birthright and the blessings of lib-
erty would melt the barriers of racial
prejudice with the benign rays of its
suns. 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

‘Master and even in this land of
erty over a half a century passed fron

mental body before the great eman-
cipator, Abraham Lincoln, inforced

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

we may unite all Americans in one

“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

“The answer is simple. He was ar
American soldier—who gave his al

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

HON: SHERIDAN E. FRY
Former Judge of the Municipal Court of Chicago. He will Be One of

the Forthcoming: Tuesday, April 11.
During his lifetime Booker T.
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.

“He has served the people of Iili-
nois as Legislator and the people of

Chief Bailiff of the Municipal Court.
He stands on his record.
“He is Chicago's moving spirit of

“Mr. Cermak is President of the
National Army Aid Association, aid-

“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. He is one of the strong-

they often had to go without food for

“Every two weeks about 200 citi-

This room now contains pool-tables,

Women Bailiffs
“Women prisoners are now taken
care of by women bailiffs to whom
they turn in their hour of need and
who advise and console them, tele-

What Ralph wrote to Bill
BILL is a good substantial citizen who, like many of us, had, up to a short time ago, never saved his money systematically.
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.

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.

What Ralph wrote to Bill
BILL is a good substantial citizen who, like many of us, had, up to a short time ago, never saved his money systematically.
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.
