BRYNE WILL BE RE-ELECTED TO THE CITY COUNCIL FROM THE NEW 15TH WARD No one needs to come from the dead past in order to talk about Hon. Thomas F. Bryne, the little fighting statesman who represents the stock yards district in the City Council, for he is well known to every man, woman and child residing in the great city of Chicago. Alderman Byne is ever ready to enter into a red hot fight on the floor of the City Council in behalf of Union Labor and the poor working man. Being one of the warm friends of the writer, he introduced the resolution in the City Council in October, 1921, making it possible to hold a special Tag Day for the benefit of the Fort Dearborn Hospital, and it can be truly said that he is the colored man's friend. It goes without saying that Alderman Bryne will be re-elected to the City Council on Tuesday, Feb. 27. 7 7 HON. WILLIAM B. O'TOOL HON. WILLIAM R.

THE BROAD AX, CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1923 HON. DORSEY R. CROWE HON. DORSEY R. CROWE HON. TERENCE F. MORAN HON. WILLIAM R. O'TOOLE Hon. Dorsey R. Crowe, member of the City Council from the old 21st ward and non-partisan candidate for re-election to it from the new 42nd ward. Alderman Crowe is so well and favorably known to the people of Chicago, that he needs no long introduction to the many readers of this newspaper. He honorably and bravely served his country in the aviation corps during the late World War for democracy and he wassseverely injured when he fell on the Lake from his airplane and for his bravery and daring exploits he was in time promoted to a captaincy and he seen service over the deep blue sea on the battlefields of France and he should be highly honored for the true and loyal spirit which he displayed at that time. Alderman Crowe does not do a lot of loud talking, cussing or swearing; on the contrary he is cultured and refined and always thinks twice before he speaks; his bearing is that of a highly polished gentleman. HON. TI Alderman Moran is finishing four years or two terms as a member of the City Council from the old 31st Ward and his labors in behalf of the people residing in that ward and for all the people living in this great city will continue for many years to come. Place him and his name among the best class and the most progressive aldermen that this city has ever had. The above are a few of the many important accomplishments of the City Council which he as one of its useful members has greatly helped to bring about. Street Repairs: There was expended for street repairs in the old 31st Ward during the years 1918, 1919, 1920, 1921 and 1922, an average of $32,590.00 per year while I represented this Ward, as compared to an average of $19,245.00 per year for the years 1916 and 1917. Street and Alley Cleaning: There was expended for street and alley cleaning in the old 31st Ward, the sum of $75,917.01 in 1917, which was the year before I was elected to the City Council; and in 1922, the sum of $106,918.20. Street Lighting—State to Ashland: During the period that I have represented the old 31st Ward, there has been expended in that Ward approximately $285,000.00 for the installation of more than 3,000 street lights. Ordinance Regulating Heating of Apartments and Factories: During the past year, I worked for the passage of a health measure providing for the regulation of temperature in apartments, factories and workshops which was so adjusted as to be satisfactory to tenants and workers and practical in its application and operation. Western Avenue Pumping Station: Construction work was started in 1920 on tunnels for a new pumping station to be located on Western HON. WI Alderman William R. O'Toole, first wended his way into the City Council from the old 30th Ward in 1914, after a hard fought battle with Joseph A. Swift, Alderman from that ward at that time, which has always been full of fighting politicians and statesmen, and from 1914 to the present time Alderman O'Toole has ably represented all the people residing in his ward. There are a great many honest and highly respectable colored people residing in his ward and at all times without price. Alderman O'Toole has stood ready and willing to serve them in every way that he possibly could and many times he has gone out of his way to do favors for them in the way of securing work for both men and women and it is no uncommon sight every day to see three or four colored men and women standing around on the outside of the City --- In the past he served on the committee of committees and he voted in favor of selecting Alderman Louis B. Anderson as one of the members of the Finance Committee, which is clearly evident that Alderman Crowe is not swayed by race prejudice. As one of the live members of the Finance Committee, Alderman Crowe was selected as one of its five members of its sub committee, which had the final say in settling up the race riot cases and at all times he was more than fair and just. The Municipal Voters League speaks of him as follows: Forty-Second Ward—Ald. Dorsey R. Crowe indorseed. "Throughout his aldermanic career he has supported decency and good government and has consistently developed in usefulness. His good record entitles him to the support of intelligent citizens and they should combine on him to defeat Agnew." Alderman Crowe is running on the following platform for re-election to avenue. The entire cost of this im-provement will be approximately $8,000,000. I have consistently fought to hasten the completion of this project and to have the station located as near our ward as possible, in order that our district may obtain the maximum benefits in the supply of water, of which we have been short for many years. Accomplishments of City Council 1. In the appropriation bills for the past two years, the City Council has adhered to the policy of keeping appropriations within the revenue and, in this connection, has taken as the basis the certification of revenue from the City Comptroller. The following tabulation pertains to the appropriation bills for the years 1921 and 1922: Departmental Estimates, 1921-$45. Departmental Estimates, 1921—$45, 423,922.29; 1922—$54,889,940.58. Committee Recommendation, 1921— $40,661,782.10; 1922—$39,458,581.57. Passed by City Council, 1921—$40, 799,780.76; 1922—$39,582,437.14. Total Appreciation 1921—$40,799, 780.76; 1922—$43,340,340.28. 2. The City Council reduced the interest rate on recent bond issues one-half of one per cent, which action will save the city approximately $27, 000.00 for the first year and during the life of the bond issues, approximately $270,000.00. 3. The City Council, through a system of rigid inspection, increased the collections from vehicle licenses $900, 000.00, making this much additional available for the repair and maintenance of the improved streets of Chicago. 4. Over 200 individual requests for regrading of positions, affecting approximately 400 employees, were presented to the Finance Committee in 1922. If allowed, these requests involved an expenditure of over $75,000.00 per annum. They were disposed of to the extent of saving $48,000.00. Council committee rooms waiting and looking for Alderman O'Toole. When he was first elected to the City Council in 1914, he declared that it was no use in attempting to induce any of the colored voters of his ward to vote for him, that the colored people were all against him. We informed Alderman O'Toole at that time that he was mistaken, that what he wanted to do was to march himself right in among the colored people along on State Street and on the other streets where they resided east of Wentworth Ave, that by doing so he would become better acquainted with them, and with much pleasure it can be stated that Alderman O'Toole paid some attention to our sound advice, for at each aldermanic election from that time on he has successfully carried all of the colored precincts in his ward against his bitter political opponents and for a long time Alderman O'Toole has been the biggest man in the City Council, Tuesday Feb. 27. Voted 100% for the people against $3,000,000.00 experts, voted to demand resignation of indicted schoolboard members, stood courageously against waste of taxpayers' money and overloading budget, member of Council four years, member Finance Committee three years, an ex-service man, loyal to his comrades. Introduced ordinances for: Protection of lives against reckless auto drivers, boulevarding La Salle and Ohio streets, La Salle street bridge, local comfort station, sponsored creation of free bathing beach—south of Chicago Ave. "One good term deserves another." As Alderman Crowe has always been friendly disposed towards the better class of colored people and has always been ready to do him a favor when it has been within his power to do so, in the long run it would indeed be a great benefit to the colored people in his ward to assist to return him to the City Council on Tuesday, Feb. 27. MORAN 5. The City Council, after hearing by the Finance Committee on demands applicable to over 6,000 employees, involving an additional salary expense of over $1,950,000.00, disposed of such demands at a cost of approximately $77,000.00—a saving to the taxpayers of $1,873,000.00. 6. The City Council, in 1922, ordered the audit now being made of the books of the Board of Education (over which the City Council has no legal control) to check on the expenditure of $52,600,000.00 appropriated last year, and to consider the advisability of a reduction in the tax rate. The City Council, in conjunction with the Superintendent of Police, has put into effect a plan of rewarding policemen for meritorious service, thereby furnishing an incentive for greater diligence and activity on the part of the police force. As stated before that Alderman Moran has assisted to accomplish a wonderful work in behalf of all the people of this city since he has been one of the very valuable members of the City Council. It can further be stated in all fairness to Alderman Moran that as one of the members of the Finance Committee of that body, that he voted and worked hard to assist to settle up the Race Riot cases without such a long delay, that he voted in favor of the four resolutions which passed the City Council along that same line in October, 1921, he voted in favor of the special Tag Day for the Fort Dearborn Hospital. At all times Alderman Moran is ready and willing to do anything that he can to favor the colored people residing in his ward. In conclusion, Alderman Moran as well as his warm friend, Hon. Michael K. Sheridan, states that many colored voters in the old 31st Ward will assist him on Tuesday, Feb. 27, to land back into the City Council—Adv. the Town of Lake in the eyes of the colored people. Alderman O'Toole in October, 1921 voted in favor of the special Tag Day for the benefit of the Fort Dearborn Hospital and he called for a through ticket and voted in favor of the passage of four resolutions which had for their object the settlement of the Race Riot cases and he can truly be regarded as one of the best friends of the colored people in this city. He is one of the hard working members of the City Council; he is chairman of the committee on buildings and zoning; he is a member of the following other committees: Railroads, Industries, and Compensation, Gas, Oil and Electric Lights, Schools, fire and civil service and member of the committees and rules and with the aid of the colored voters residing in his ward he will make a swift home run on Tuesday, February 27, and land back in the City Council. --- J.

Several years ago when it was first proposed to chop the old city wards up into fifty wards with one alderman to each, a great roar went up among some of the aldermen residing near the old 14th ward, for none of them outside of Alderman Joseph Higgins Smith and Alderman George M. Maypole wanted a whole raft of colored people saddled off onto them and after the fight had become very bitter along that line in the committee rooms, Alderman Maypole strode into the room and wanted to know what was the trouble or the matter with the so-called red blooded or thin skinned republicans, who were ashamed or afraid to let it be known on the floor of the City Council that a large number of peaceable and law abiding colored people resided in their wards and with his eyes flashing fire. Alderman Maypole loudly exclaimed, "Give me the colored people I am not ashamed of them and I will take all of them that the members of this committee places within the bounds of my ward for I know them and was raised among them," and thousands of colored people were cut into his ward 1930 1910 M.

During his boyhood days, Alderman Maypole was a great baseball fan and he was the captain of a cracking baseball team and he has a picture hanging on the wall in his front parlor which shows him sitting in the midst of his players and one or two are young colored boys, which is positive proof that Alderman Maypole is free from race prejudice. In many ways he has been loyal and true to the colored people and as a member of the Finance Committee, he voted and worked for the settlement of the race riot cases and the colored voters in his ward will remember him on primary day, Tuesday Feb. 27, for the many good deeds which he has done for them in the past and they will see to it that he is re-elected to the City Council, from the new Twenty-Eighth Ward. 1910 in the old Thirty-first Ward, and for re-election to it from the new member of the Finance Committee worked hard to bring about the cases and freely voted in favorrate and distinct resolutions by at object in view.

Touhy was first elected. to the City. Council as any in- dependent candidate from’ the 18th Ward some four or six years ago and at all times his record shows that he is ever ready to stand by all the peo- ple in this city and that he is ever ready to vote for their best interest. ‘The Municipal Voters’ League sounds his praises iff the following manner: “Twenty-Seventh Ward.—Ald. John J. Touhy indorsed. Voted four times for the people against Faherty’s experts. Has maintained a good name _in the couneil and has for years made a hard, successful fight against the worst clement in his ward.” Alderman ‘Touhy, who always de- ports himself like a first water gen- tleman, is an honored member of many of the leading committees of that body and he is always fighting in the interest of the people residing in his ward.

Soa MANY BUILDINGS TO BE 2 see eBRERCTED: oes 5 From present indications, many new. buildings will be erected in Mor- gan Park and other suburbs of the city beginning the early spring by people from the city and other parts who are anxious to get into this rapid- ly thriving part of the city. REV. SCOTT LEAVES AGAIN Rev. T, L, Scott of Grant A. M. E. Memorial Church, 4600 Evans ave., returned from Charleston, S. C., where he attended the Bishops Council on last Saturday and preached to his con- gregation on Sunday. He left Mon- day for Kansas'City, Mo, to open up revival gervices at Ebenezer A. M. E. Church. Mrs. Scott and the children have recovered from their illness and are very grateful to the-members of the congregation and other friends who were so kind to them during their illness. HON. JOHN H. LYLE WILL BE RE-ELECTED TO THE CITY COUNCIL FOR THE NEW SEVENTEENTH WARD | No member of the City Council has been more friendly to the colored race than Hon. John H. Lyle, who has for many years served all the peo- ple well and faithfully residing in the old Thirty-Second Ward and he has also labored hard in the interest of all of the people in this city. Alderman Lyle greatly endeared himself to all of the colored people when he lead off in the fight on the floor of ‘the City Council and in the Finance Committee in favor of set- tling the Race Riot cases and no one was more happy than Alderman Lyle when the City Council ordered the whole matter to be closed up at once. After the-race‘riots, in this city in 1919, Ald. Lyle defended one of the colored men who killed the ringleader of a mob on_the south side, and the jury tyghed “him loose. Ald. Lyle made a wonderful plea in behalf oi this colored man, a local preacher who was defending his wife and children For our part, we feel mighty proud to number Alderman ‘Lyle among our best, friends in Chicago and we: hope that the fates and ee in his ‘ward are on his side that he will be retifmed to the City Council on ‘Tuesday, Feb. 27, from the New.

An Alderman shovld visit and inspect the alleys and streets of his ward at least once a week and should sce to it that the same are kept clean, to the end that the health of our peo- ple residing in the Second Ward be not jeopardized and impaired by filthy streets and dirty alleys. 8 I am strongly in favor of cheap- er street car and elevated railroad fares, and if elected will do all in shy power to bring about a reasonable re- duction of such fares. 9. 1 am in favor of the enactment of an ordinance requiring all police officers to “book” a prisoner within one hour after making: an arrest, and no beating of prisoners. Many arrests are ofttimes made where innocent, respectable and de- cent men and women are sometimes held over 24 hours at a time without haying the privilege of giving bail, and somietimes without eyen ees sien permission to telephone to their tives. Such an ordinance, if enacted, would stop this illegal practice, in my opinion. . ee _ 10. I am in favor of an amendment of the Volstead Law,-which will per- mit the sale and consumption of light wines and beer. As a result of the enforcement of the 18th Amendment, there are more insane people in the earious insane asylums than ever before. In some asylums: in Illinois they are crowded to their limit, “In Joliet penitentiary, in Chester penitentiary, in Pontiac Re- formity, in the House of Correction, and in our county jail, there are more Prisoners than there were before the advent of prohibition. Daily’ citizens are going blind from the effects of “moonshine.” By allowing our citi- zens the right to drink light wines and beer, you will correspondingly re- duce the consumption of “moonshine” —the necessity. for drinking moon- ss shine is decreased—and thereby pre- vent blindness, insanity, and the com- mission of grime. , An® Alderman can do much by his ypice .and vote to induce Congress to modify the present Volstead Act so as to-permit the sale of light wines and beer. Light wines were used by people thousands of years before the birth of Christ, and why not now in this present age of civilizMtion, Chris- tianity and progress? Our ward is sadly lacking in proper playgrounds and parks for our chil- dren, ‘ Likewise, there should be a bathing beach at the foot of 31st or 35th street where our people could ‘take an occa- sional dive in the cool waters of Lake Michigan on a hot afternoon or eve- ning. Other wards along the Lake Front have beaches—why not the 2d Ward? I would do all in my power to bring about this long-felt want. U1. Our ward is infested with num- erous cabarets, While I am heartily in favor of personal liberty, the caba- ret proposition has become a nuisance to the good, decent citizens of our ward. Only a few days ago, a sensa- tional murder occurred in one of the big cabarets in the ward. This condi- tion tends to bring on reproach to the good name of the second ward. I believe that some effective action should be taken by the public authori- ties, acting in conjunction with the Alderman of the second ward, to bring about an improvement of this condition and if the nuisance can not be thoroughly eradicated, then stricter regulations should be made concern- ing their epbvétionn. 'W. G. ANDERSON is a practicing attorney in the Municipal, State and Federal Courts, with offices at 17 North La Salle St., Suite 560; phones 4694 Dearborn, 7094 Dearborn; re- sides at 3354 Vernon Avenue, and was ‘born in New Orleans, La, April 2, 1870. He has lived in the Second Ward fon the past twelve years, and in Chicago for over thirty years. He studied law under Judge John Barton Payne and was admitted to the ‘Mlinois- Bar in 1896.) Under date of March 29th, 1922, the Chicago Advocate’ published the fol- lowing article concerning Attorney Anderson: “Attorney W. G. Anderson acquired the name “Habeas Corpus’ because of the hundreds of habeas corpus and criminal cases successfully fought by him. “The record heretofore made by At- torney Anderson is still fresh in the memory of the citzens of Chicago. “It was he, assisted by Attorney Ed. Wright, who procured a writ of ha- beds corpus from the late Judge Tut- hill, and saved the life of Steve Green, who had killed his boss down in Ar- kansas because he refused to let Steve leave the plantation, where he was making the princely sum of fifty cents a day, with the object of bettering his condition. The sheriff had come to Chicago for Steve and gotten him as far south as Cairo, where he was taken off the train by the sheriff of Alexander County, returned to Chi- cago, and after a hard and’ vigorous fight before the late Judge Tuthill of the Circuit Court of Cook County, Steve Green was ‘discharged, and is alive today.” “It was Mt. Anderson who saved Mrs. Mary Howard from going back to Nashville, Tenn, a few years ago, where she was indicted for stealing three chickens—a penitentiary offense in Tennessee. The Attorney General of Tennessee came all the way to Chi- cago to oppose the writ which Judge Dever had issued and he made a hard Tight to take Mrs. Howard back to Nashville, but Attorney Anderson again scored a notable victory and had Mrs. Howard discharged.” “But one of the «most important legal battles of Attorney Anderson was the mission to Richmond, Va, on August 15, 1912, at the instance of the Chicago Examiner, to urge Gov ernor Mann of Virginia to reprieve Virginia Christian, the seventeen-year- old balf-witted colored girl who had Killed her mistress while in a fit of frenzy. Anderson made a most won- derful plea to the Governor, which was commented on by the Chicago Examiner and other papets as a mas- terpiece of eloquence, but Governor! Mann’s heart could not be moved and the half-witted child was electrocuted —the first electrocution of a woman in the State of Virginia. While the white papers of Virginia severely criti- cized Attorney Anderson's nerve in attempting to have Governor Mann reprieve the girl or modify the sen- tence to life imprisonment, Mr. An- derson had no hesitancy in undertak- ing the journey to Richmond, espe- es & Pee Pe eee eS ps ee ; CElte 4 “ em PERE TTS : Eo a Za | ie pce e.

Should the Senate forget itself long enough to vote for this site, then the sculptor should design a monument showing the children of the black mammy Jim Crowed, segregated, disfranchised, peonaged, denied proper public-school education, lynched and bggned alive— and all this as the reward of the black mammy’s devotion. The erection of such a monument would only serve to prove how hope- lessly the South is wedded to the dead past.

WILLIAMS Don’t fail to vote for Attorney Augustus L. Williams for Alder- man of Second Ward. The Candidate with a good record has proven it by obtaining from the City of Chicago $112,- 300.00 as a result of his fight against mob violence. ‘The most recent canvas of the voters of the entire Second Ward shows that Attorney Augustus L. Williams, can- didate for Alderman from the Second Ward, is far in the lead of all his op- ponents. Mr. Williams is making his fight for Aldermanic honors on his record which is so outstanding in comparison with the record of the other candidates.that they have stop- ped fostering their own campaigns and are attémpting to break down the record of Mr. Williams. All of them seem to have reached the conclusion that the Race Riot fight that Mr. Wil- liams has made, is the winning cam- paign slogan, since the people of the ‘Ward believe that the successful ter- mination of the Race Riot fight in be- half of the sarvivors of the victims is ts Su eee ets day and are anxious to reward the man who did something for them. Throughout the meetings held by the respective candidates, you can bear Mc Williams’ name mentioned by the respective speakers, some say- ing that he could not do it, othérs ad- mitting that he did do it, but trying to explain to the people that they took part in it, Mr. Lows B. Anderson claims in his Record to have been in the foreground for the race in getting for them com- pensation out of this chaos for which Mr. Williams brought victory. He attempts to belittle the work of Mr. Williams by saying that the people did not need to go into court. ‘Mr. Williams’ only answer to that is that Mr. Anderson at the time was — _ : : Te) ie ee. : See Be PE Se Se " HON.

Believing this to be true, several of the claimants went to him and put their matter in his office. One of the claim- ants for John Walter Humphrey, de- ceased, who had secured Mr. Williams for his lawyer, came back to Mr. Wil- liams and said to him that by virtue of Mr, Anderson's connections he desired Mr. Williams to withdraw. Mr, Wil. liams did so and his case was turned ‘over to Mr. Anderson's law firm. Records of the city of Chicago show that Mr. Anderson's Srm_ did not file a suit for the man and that the man was denied his rights by’ the negligence of Mr. Anderson or some one else of his firm. li, it did ‘not require anything but for ‘us to go in and ask for it, why did not Mr. Anderson get compensa- tion for this man? The remaining candidates say that ‘Mr. Williams did not have to do it. If Mr, Williams did not have to do it, why did not some one else take’ it up? There are race men in the Corpora- tion Copnsel’s Office drawing pay from the city, bt they failed to do anything for the brethren. Why try to steal Mr. William's thunder by tell- ing* you that it was an easy matter?
