But the Defender, realizing the magnitude of the saturation, called in one of its attorneys, Richard E. Westbrooks, of the firm of Ellis & Westbrooks, general counsel of the Chicago Defender, and as special state's attorney, after a vigorous and hotly contested trial, the jury brought in a verdict of guilty in manner and form as charged in the information. This is a demonstration again of the upholding of the law, of good order that has been demonstrated unusually by State's Attorney Mincay Hoyne and his efficient assistants, who, as in this case, were called upon to prosecute a violator of the law, apparently white, for discrimination against a lady and gentleman of color.

This will have no bearing on the case. The Defender has continuously waged an unrelenting war against race prejudice and discrimination and is ready at all times to see that those who includes in the nefarious and diabolical deception to any man on the account of his own failure to fulfil and equal enjoyment of the accommodation advantages, facilities and privilege of public places and in violation of the law, are prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law and with juries composed entirely of white men, who on their own sworn to uphold the law, finding guilty of their own for its violation, gives to us their encouragement, not only to be better citizens, but to see that all others within this jurisdiction continue to be law-abiding citizens and desist from its violation.

Willy boys are a drug on the market; they have been cleaned most of them out of the house, and have a heavy inquiry, that the reason that they call Chicago the windy city, is because so many ham actors are always blowing into town.

HIGH SCHOOL NORTH SOUTTY Tom Holly of our men should take the place of the striking white waiters, nor they the places of our men, but when the girls went in, our men went to the heads of the labor unions and complained that their places were being taken by union girls. They were told there was an agreement, but stood like dumb animals when they were politely informed and shown that the agreement NEVER SAID ANYTHING ABOUT WHITE GIRLS TAKING THE PLACES OF BLACK UNION WAITERS. Since that time the doors of many downtown restaurants have been closed to us for work. The unions did it. The union waiter in this city was thought no more of, as far as our Race was concerned. THE RACE'S MAGNA CHARTA Proposition of the Race's Exodus Northward Has Awakened the Southern Whites as Has Nothing Since the Civil War; They Can THE RACE'S MAGNA CHARTA Proposition of the Race's Exodus Northward Has Awakened the Southern Whites as Has Nothing Since the Civil War; They Can Straighten the Situation Out by Fairness Alone Several years afterward a hotel on the corner of Jackson and Wabash decided to re-oepn and employ our men, but the union officials showed them that if they did they would not be able to hire cooks, maids or pantry girls, as they would refuse to work with unorganized labor. See the point? They knew the waiters of our Race had no union then. Never in the history of the country has the actions of the men and women of the Race made the whites of the South sit up and take notice and at the same time cry out in distress as has the action of our people in heading for the North, where manhood and fair play for them is assured. The Southern whites at last have been forced to recognize the fact that the Race people of that section have grown tired of the lynching of their men and the violating of their women. Still, the lynch-billies try to show that with all the horrible crimes committed by them against us down below the Styx that our people are wrong in leaving and that they are our friends. We of the Race who are not of the bootlegging class will take such guff for what we know to be worth, and at the same time have to go out in sympathy for those who believe as in contempt for those who preach. In accordance with these sentiments we submit the following Magna Charter: This is only one instance—there are hundreds more. The unions see now by organizing the Southern working men of the Race that they will prohibit them from taking the white man's place in the North. The labor officials have handed our people a "GOLD BRICK" and this movement is looked upon as another. We are highly in favor of organized labor, for we believe where there is union there is strength, but we don't nor won't believe in any union or any part thereof when it makes a distinction of color. Those who have admitted members of the Race within their gates have seen to it that no more get in, by refusing to allow them to be hired as apprentices, thus practically excluding them altogether. The migration to this section of the country is for several reasons: the Northern employer is short of help, the Southern member of the Race is disgusted with the South and its treatment, and has come where he can breathe the air of liberty and freedom. First—That all Jim Crow street cars by commission no later than jan. 1, 1917. We say in conclusion to our Southern workman—BEWARE—B-E-W-A-R-E. This movement must be met with thought and consideration, but above all, guard yourself. Remember the waiters, the railroad engineers, the firemen, etc. Remember that although he has a union card, one engineer in Michigan can not pull a first class passenger train into Chicago because he is not white. Whateyer ye sow, so shall ye reap, and perhaps the unions will sow their corn different hereafter, but it is a big PERHAPS. Second — That all plantations be equipped with modern schooling facilities, where the children of the tenants will be able to get educated to what will be equivalent to the eighth grade. Third—That railroad privileges be accorded our people in the South equal to that accorded them in the North. Fourth—That all white men living in open adultery with women, and that all white men who ruin our young girls be made to marry them so that the illegitimate children of them will have lawful names, thus assuring them of the legal support of their fathers. IT IS UTTERLY IMPOSSIBLE for a newspaper to please all the people all the time. No matter how careful the managing editor may be in the selection of news content for publication, or how close he sticks to the truth. If a certain news item is the paper is "sleep at the switch"; if published, it is accused of "yellow journalism": in the meantime the circulation grows, for even the knockers are anxious to see each issue in order to keep abreast of the times. Fifth—To force the Negro-baiting police to treat prisoners with black skins the same as the prisoners with white skins are treated. A newspaper, contrary to what is generally believed, has a conscience. It makes an effort at all times to speak the truth. It believes that truth, cleanliness and decency are the greatest dividend payers on earth. It believes in a fair deal for all and special privileges for none. It is the molder of public opinion and as such must advance ideas on subjects that tend for the uplift of mankind in general. The city, state and national administrations must be kept under surveillance, and the public must be informed of all legislation, good or bad. The responsibility of a newspaper is great because its power is so immense Sixth-That lynchings will be stopped, so that even though it is impossible for the Race man to get justice in the courts he will at least have a chance to stand trial. A real, live newspaper has much to do with the making of a 'own'. Citizens should appreciate this fact, and encourage the enterprise in every possible way. Our course you are going to find things in the paper that don't just meet with you. Our course you are going to occur to you, gentle reader, perhaps that same article pleases the other ninety percent of the audience. A newspaper sells its soul and betrays its readers. To perk all of the time, in a crisp, clean cut, readable manner, to champion the cause of the people it represents, and to be what its name implies in every sense, is the aim and objective of the Defender. That our efforts are appreciated is evidenced by the circulation departures where figures stand to prove our assertion that the Chicago Defender is the world's greatest weekly published in the interest of the darker races. Seventh—That all steamboats and ships give equal accommodations to the Race, as the paying of the same fares that the whites pay, should justify. Eighth—That they give the Race men and women their legal right of franchise so that they may vote as the great Lincoln intended. IN WICHITA FALLS, TEX., the city council has discovered that the quarters of the Colored people are so unbearable that a great many of the prosperous ones are leaving for other cities. Well, what are they going to do about it? When these rights are accorded, and not until then, will we discourage the coming to the North of our people of the South, our men and women have begun to ask for them and to realize that what is good for them is done in the North is good for them; and we give in their decision to come North and lay their lives out of earshot of the means of the illegally hanged and away from the sickening ador of burning human flesh. IF DECEMBER deals as gently with us as November has done, we can worry along pretty comfortably in spite of the fact that coal has doubled in price. IF THE PRICE OF FOODSTUFFS keeps soaring, a ham sandwich will look like a ten-course dinner to all save the rich. DR. A.
