Both Representatives Have Interest of Race at Stake
CHICAGO DEFENDER NEWS SERVICE
Springfield, Ill., March 23—State Rep. Benjamin Lucas and Malibu Robert have endorsed the statement of the Chicago Illinois Idea, and branded the article as a "file." The two representatives of the Rep. state legislature claim that they have been the most of their friends in Chicago believed them to have been, and thought that the whole affair was from the fact that paper of the Idea had been defeated by the daily papers, bounced by the daily papers as totally unintent, but was rejected by the people. They voted for the adoption of the constitutional amendment because of the best interest of the state. It is an evident fact that the state of Illinois needs a new constitution, and that both major parties, as well as the administration itself, were in favor of the amendment, backed by the foremost citizens of the state.
In making his speech before voting for the bill in question, Representative Lucas made it plain to the fellow members that he would be some dangers hurting the state, would vote for it on the strength that he was a part of the people and a part of the state of Louisiana, that he would be taken by both the state and the law, that he was purely representative of a per- son of the best cityship, without referee. Both are of a type of person who is a man, and not to be measured in standards, and in assuming that attitude serve the people and the vast interests of the Race to a greater degree than any other. Their attitude gives the Race a greater claim to representation in the convention, and will also cause them to be given consideration where any other person is not so well-founded concerning the separate schools is all boss. Fifty per cent of the school system of this state outside of Cook and Sangamon counties is separate. The Bill Tuesday Man, Jackson killed the state civil service bill, that discriminated against the Race by selecting one of the three eligible from the civil service system of the state. Lucas has been highly criticized, and nothing but praise has been given them from all sides.

Chicago Defender WORLD'S GREATEST WEEKLY
Chicagoan Writes Experience While Fighting for France
SEVERELY WOUNDED
Francois Kanne known as Frank Kane, big fellow, tender heart, now with the great army of France, once a lieutenant to his niece, Miss Cissy West Fulton street. Kanne married a Virginia Brooks, who died about three years ago. Kane was killed in the France-Portugal government educated Kanne, he being the eldest son, so that he might be able to support his mother and sisters. He was remembered by trade. His color being against him he never could get anything to do but cooking. He was born in Senegal. Senegal coast of coast, Kanne is remembered by trade. His big fellow. He often spoke in churches and is said to have visited the south side now and then. He was then promoted to the rank of lieutenant for bravery and has received three decorations for his gallantry under fire. France knows no color. In his letter, he says: "I left America, 6th day of August, 1914, to answer the general call of the Republic of France for my mother and sisters' sake. So to be able to enter the army, I had to be able to live without molestation on the part of government and on the other hand I was so lonesome in that country after the Lord had taken my wife to him that I would not have to go to the army. Now the reason I had not written to anyone so far is because we were not allowed to write outside of France for the small village. My mind might happen through the mail. I am not sure it is not only French citizens that are serving the country, but many of different nationality. And for that reason we were not allowed to go outside of France, exceeding by the government."
"I think the Lord has done wonders for me. When I got in France I was wounded by a bullet from the Marne) Champaign district, so-called on account of the abundant quantity of that kind of wine produced in that part of France, I fought there till the 24th of December when I was wounded on that night and sent back to Lyon. On April 21st was sent back to Paris, again, to time to the extreme Ouest or the Dardanelles or the Turks. I was wounded three times, this time two of them being very serious."
"My home in Senegal is all upset over the war. In the first conflict in Belgium many of my countrymen lost their lives, so it is the Dardanelles. Any place the African troops. This brings their first experience in European war tactics, you may judge how many fall on the battlefield. The soldier in the sniper one may be, how hard-hearted he may be, whoseover he is, after taking part in one of these terrible slaughters, cannot imagine the terrible battles unless he beheld some of them. No pen can describe it. I don't take myself a person to be started all over again I would leave it on anyone else who wanted it, but not me."
In another letter under the date of October 15, Kanne writes: "I just got back from St. John's Hospital wound on the head, one on the left arm and one on the left leg, making two wounds on the same leg. I was operated on at St. John's Sanitary corps on the island of St. Lucia and put out of the danger of death." The rest of the letter is purely perusal. The signed Kanne, Francois, No. 25783, 4 m., St. Lucia, Sud Aranias, Algeria. Afrique Nord.

Birmingham, Ala., March 23—When the telegram ordering me to investigate certain conditions in this God forsaken town was transquitted and handed to me from the Defender headquarters in Chicago, it grieved me sore; not that the part of Georgia that I was in at the time is anything more or less than a man of the same age of many members of my Race, but because there is something about the town that is repelling as well as depressing. My instructions called for an investigation of the Race at a meeting of the lower strata in session here last week. The letters H. B. surely stand for something more fitting than "High Brow," as the utterances of the Race certainly savored of the lower strata in session here last week. The mity person is a judge presiding over one of the local court rooms and he has built the rottenest reputation for unrestrainedness, accented to a parasite fed by the taxation of this community in his capacity. He didn't shoot low, either in his efforts to low rate a race of people who are absolutely unrestrained, down here below the sticks; he picked out the immortal Booker T. Washington as a special target.
What He Said
"From the top of his bone head to the bottom of his fat foot foot there isn't a nail that can break it," he mighty made them to hew wood and draw water and I'm opposed to educating them. Booker T. Washington has done it, and he's done it a lot more so. There just as much difference human nature and Negro nature as there is between limburger cheese and a bunch of chicken. He's the farm. And once the Negro hurs the sound of the automatic plane he loses all taste for the mocking bird, and he'd smell sewer gas than new mown hay."
If this isn't the limit, and coming from a judge on the bench who has the passivity of a Race, makes it all the more startling. This is the sort of beats) that preside over many of the courts of the south. I think of the people as unnervingness people, as well as a number of those socially prominent, as to what they thought of the 'judge's utterances. The judge's utterances in insects' sentiments, with one exception; this exception was a Jew whose family had been wiped off the face of the earth, one of those Russian riots some year ago.
It must not be understood that the learned man, who has taken our hue out of humanity, got away with his bung of hoof piling some hot shot from many of the fair minded members of the congress present when he unloaded it. Rev. Midleton S. Barnwell, president, took a pot at the maneuasing skate, and Dr. B. Kiley actually kicked the

ARTIST'S STRUGGLE BRINGS REWARD
Winslow's Paintings on Exhibit at Moulton and Rickets
A struggle, a grim determination to be one of the world's best painters, coupled with education along these very lines, has caused the ray of hopes to come flitting into the home of Arthur Winslow at this stage in life. Born with the desire to become an artist, never giving up hope because encouragement was not forthcoming, and undaunted because of his color, Mr. Winslow has won merit so great that the best art critics have pronounced his work as "fault-
Reward at Last
Last week he walked into the store of Moulton & Rickett, East, Van Buren and three new masters paintings under his arm. Mr. Moulton asked him what he thought of the work. The art connoisseur looked at them for a moment, and then asked the artist's artist that had "tried to paint" them. Mr. Moulton said for him to bring them, Mr. Moulton and he like them, and he would dispose of them. Mr. Mr. Winslow's paintings stand next to those of two of America's best painters, York. These two men are white, and with Mr. Winslow, make the only three men in America that are what are called "American artists," his pallet knife and used a brush. Conversing with a well-known art critic, a Defender reporter was told that Mr. Mr. Mr. just twenty years ahead of his time.

Editor Manning of the Indianapolis World and Edi Knox of the Indianapolis Freeman Appear in INTEREST of Film
Savannah, Ga., March 23.—Much has been sold against members of the Races leaving this section of the country. Some of the would-be wise leaders are being paid by the whites to tell the laborer to stay, but little need has been given to them for the promised land," and although some agents have tried in vain to keep the Races from Detroit and Detroit the Races men have bought to smaller stations and from there to others and worked this scheme till they were where it is through purchase can be made.
The best class of southern people have not left yet and are waiting for the men to the general exposition or the "Great Northern Drive," as the Chicago Defender puts it, will begin. Last Thursday night at the West Broad street around the Union station all was excitement an account of how the general police to go north. They were NOT ALLOWED the privilege of even entering the station to wait for the train and the police to be fully police to the adjoining streets. They no respect nor reward for the women or children. They used their clubs freely and heat some people badly. Many and kept so required did the many. Many of the people took the street car and rode three miles from here and others, fearing trouble, went eight miles to the best station. Some waited all night to get there. A Defender reporter later learned that the man in charge of the affair had been arrested by the police earlier in the day and could not carry his plans. There were many who had used their clubs; many camped out in the open air and ate their little food they had brought them in the early hours of morning. Man has appeared in the papers. The whites here are up in arms against the members of the Race leaving the south.
WHITE MEN AND PARTY HELD
Brookhaven, Miss. March 23—Following a continual exodus of members of the Knee from this section of the country by labor agents, the police spurred the Knee to attack the mills of their losing all the help, arrested a white man by the name of Kelly on the arrival of a northbound passenger train. At the time of his arrival, the Knee had loads of laborers on their way for Bloomington, Ill. After the arrest of Kelly the police made the trainmen switch the two carts on a sidetrack and the Knee was forced to count the number of the men in the coaches showed that there were 125. The word have been passed along some 100 or more gathered around the station seeking to force to disperse them. The saxophiles, railroads and other concerns are badly in need of help. Every member of the Race that can leave for the north has been arrested on the spot, not stopping to get their pay. The treatment of the Race in general, coupled with the open way, some of

"JIM CROW" BILL INTRODUCED
"Rough Neck" Country Member Seeks
Publicity and Interest in Whack
at the Nepra
By J. M. Batchman, Staff Correspondent
S. Moise, St. Louis, 16-1. I have learned that some "rough-necked cracker" from somewhere out in the brush has been used to week providing for separate railroad cars for members of the race in this state. The information I have been given is the longer but I believe it is sufficient to know that the state legislature some half-civilized backwoodsmen tries to gain some publicity and a measure of present element of "poor whites," who know nothing save to light our people with the color question. The big dailies of the press are the most effective to ignore them and their potential comrades promptly avoid giving any evidence of support to their rantankulous band. When the reaction sets in, they are left to themselves as others see them, only to realize in a dazzed sort of way that they have played the part of fools. They prestige and do not know how to gain it.
Governor Gardner, who is a millionaire, and who has always been kindly disposed toward the members of the Races in any measure of confidence of the Race in any measure of confidence of the reach him affecting the rights of our people. He has always had them in his employ, and one of the most trusted John O'Neill, a veterinarian, who has been with him for four years, has fought as hard as any man could for Mr. Gardner's election. Mr. Gardner is head and shoulders above any man who has occupied the executive mansion in years this respect, and we believe in the broadness of his mind absolutely.
It is a fact that the way things went during the past campaign that the head of the state ticket would have gone to the state that it not been for the Democrat of color to secure approximately 2,485 of their votes, out of a possible 10,000 cast in the seventy heaviest precincts of this city. These figures were secured by approximating the test of some of the most expert analytic minds in the Democratic party. The Democrat of color saved for their party practically all the state patronage of the Democratic party, dollars annually, and naturally the Democrat in this city are exceedingly grateful over the result. The Jim Crower down in the sticks does not know this in the distribution of these jobs to live in settlements. He deserves no gratitude at the hands of his party, because he has offered a gross insult to what proved to be the best element of the Democratic party in retaining its hold in control of the state.
These color batters are not peculiar to any one party in this state, but they are almostly minorities. Republicans Jim Creaven and the Democrats of the state headquarters in the International Life building during the last campaign; they have a separate waiting room in the state building; they are one of the city courts, but quit under the fire. The fight is ever with us, but outside of how murterings there are few to see and speak what they think. In segregation the courts have been the least offenders. The party as a whole has given no recent approval of segregation, which is more important than the Republicans, and no one who knows conditions believes the present attempt will prove anything but a failure.

Should Resign
This shifter has shown by his expressions that he is absolutely unfit to hold the job which he is holding. It is his kind which is making the members of his team more aggressive in the supposition that if this ginkg was busy sending the men and women and children of our people to the chain gang and mimes he would be somewhere leading a mob to a lynching bane or a stake up. He would apologize for his uncalled for and rotten utterances and I don't know but what I will call around and see the slunk person personally and demand it. Talk about inference in the way of lynching and Rue-battling. I miss my guess. A demand should be made for his resignation. He don't sit and there are many of the white people here who would welcome the first person to be taken down, even the populace of Birmingham dislike the class of motorcycle which he is getting for the berg. The Race has made fast strides along the road and missed traxes and in certain situations and misapplied traxes and in certain situations and the dear "judges" own state, the illiterate average is smaller among our people than among the whites. Solomon had almost as good a reputation as he had although he was several shades darker.
A Sample of "Justice"
Abernathy is a cinch for the white rowdies, thieves and blacklegs in this town, especially if their offenses are committed against members of the Race. The records of this court show more suspicious sentences and discharge, but the court in the county. One day the "judges" pet overcrowd (we call it "pet" because the judge had it so long) disappeared off the book in the court room of his court, one of the judges recognized the coat and it plucked the fellow who had pilfered it, bringing he and the coat in, just as the latter was missed. When the "judge" saw the coat and prisoner he let out a tell that could be heard up in the courtroom. Bring him up here. I'll fix him. There'll never be another nigger steal my coat. One year in the milies. The poor fellow never had a chance to tell whether he was actually responsible for the coat or official hook; all Ably wanted was a chance to soak some one and regain the coat. At that, the sentence was an uncalled for stiff one, in as much as the "judge" wears the famous "$15, no more." In stealing a year's hard labor from the misguided follow mentioned, than the latter was in infiltrating the magistrate's hand-down. But that is this fellow's worn in desex, with no follow. When he should not have overlooked what a rotten piece of cheese he is himself.
The class of people, both north and south, who endorsed and aided the great educator, Booker T. Washington, made no difference to this parasite when he took them to work well with them as the cheese-rose idea that he probably thought would draw a laugh from his discussed auditors, and the monument which Booker T. Washington left behind at Tuskegee will stand for ages after the dirty bones of this rot-turned school have gone to dust and been forgotten.
I will keep my eve on this "gent" while I am in this section, as well as on the long jack-leg lawyer, Jim McLengo, who no doubt figured on currying favor with the judge, and who court proceedings long enough to compliment the latter upon the "great" line of talk he had put up. I may also call on this mutt, McLengo, personally before leaving here, as I would like to see just what-for-looking jackass he really is, and between you and me, the two of them at least 20,000 of our people should shake the dust of 'Bam off their feet.
THREE ROBBERS STEAL HAT
Three young men went into the millinery shop of Mine. Mayne Clinkscale, 360th Street, Thirty-Fifth Avenue, and while two were talking to her about buying a hat, the third one put a new hat under his coat. The moment they left she discovered the hat was gone. She robbed left them and put to Mrs. Morgan's, 3700 State street, and tried to sell the hat. Mrs. Clinkscale looked out the door and saw where they went and she told Mrs. Morgan that they were on the way. Mrs. Morgan would not buy. The men returned to Fokelburg's saloon and left the hat with the porter. Mrs. Clinkscale called up the Stanton avenue station and to less than ten minutes a police were there and went to the saloon, found the hat, but the men were gone.

March 29—The people of the ward are to be congratulated in Capt Matthew Zimmer as the captain. He knows him as a square dealer to all. He is a broad-minded, deep thinker and right on the job. He knows no man by his race, creed or color. They all look at him with interest, and that some of the Race men had to get up with from some of the "immunal squad" would not be tolerated if it ever reached the captain's cars. He would uphold any office in the regime. He has been used—cursing and threatening both men and women—stopping, abiding roomers on the stops and closing them away from their own homes. He has been a captain of all if you will report all such cases. He will take care of them.
That is some letter and we are of the opinion that Upta, Zimmer is worthy of March 20--I think that the attention of the Defender should be called to the brutal conduct of a big, homebound, bulldozing member of the police department, stationed in the city. His name is Henry Miles and while he hasn't been in the precinct long he has already built up a notorious reputation as a pickass of the purse wielding neighborhood will stand for the rough stuff that he pulled in the Desplainer street district, he is sadly mistaken. He will have to forget the brutal thing he did to the police officer to learn the difference between the women of the lower strata and the respectable wives of the business men of the neighborhood. One of the peculiar things he never molests white men, women and children, but he is all over any member of the Race-Man he can manage to run afraid of. He would make better time to go to the streetwalkers that infest the four corners at 31st and State streets-nightly,lying their rotten trade than at police shooting at the orderly people that if they were to attack him will surround this square-jawed son of lau if he doesn't wait out.
COMMITTEE
There is a wide gap between these
two letters and the tensions on the bolder of success.
The captain has made good and so doing
has made good friends; the other, if
credence is to be placed in the letter
of the captain, has made it tough for
somebody or somebody to figure
on making it tough for him.

"Never Judge an Actor by His Chest Measurement; He May Have a Lung Full of Hot Air"
The bill here the first half of the week carries some excellent features, there being three novelty acts of class. The program starts with the great juggling act of Richard Wally & Co., and although it has been seen here before, the work is so extraordinarily clever that there was continuous applause, which apparently was the sweet faced lady who plays the part of the Co, Izetta, who hasn't been in our midst for a long time, came back our midst for a long time, plus her accoedion, upon which she played her right into high tiger; she also sang a song, and sang it right, and it would not be amused to say right, she privilege, that Izetta has all the fun, the document, and quality her for the tights which she wears; maybe she only wears them to keep people from watching her finger, the document, and it such is the case, she selects the act, the Petit Cabaret, a remarkable charmette act with full stage and orchestra presented many features seen in an act of the Taylor made their first appearance here and are a clever pair, the young man dancing being very fine with a difference, they would have done better than they have.

The Girl from Starland was one of the

sensation and it is too bad that this line
couldn't be booked for a full week. There

Thursday night, the feature being Simms

String Beans in all his glory is the headliner here this week and is giving the patrons a complete change of work. There is no use talking, Old Beans has no use talking, Old Beans has a consequence, the Monogram being taxed to capacity. There are three teams on the program; they are Mose & Harrison, a clever gent and a very smart, and who have a real singing, talking, and dancing team. Clifford, one of those mother and sons acts that can always be depended upon to give a real entertainment out of the ordinary, and the good sister team of Mose, who offers offerings cover a wide radius of goods—real goods. This is one of the best bills seen here for a long time.

MME. HACKLEY SCORES

"KICK-IN"
"KICK-IN"
When Manager George Paul directed me to review "Kick-In" for booking, I acceded with a feeling akin to joy, because I realized that I was about to witness the running of one of the greatest productions ever displayed before the censor board of Chicago. It is a Pathe Gold award, the greatest actor, William Courtenay, and Mollie King, who is a real star in her own right, is-in-five sensational reels, the States theater for the two days, Saturday and Sunday, March 24th and 25th.
This is the film version of the play that set all New York atrill, the play that made the reviewers hunt for sympathetic characters, activating and which has proven to be a sensational success both in this country and abroad. To reveal too much of the story of "Kick-In" would be unfair to the police and police methods, it is in the hands of the officers of the law; and although filled with love interest, the hero and heroine are man and wife and Cupid who have to tax his ingenuity to keep the police out of the town often called upon to do in the usual play.
For "Kick-In" is not the usual play. It is an entirely different play with a history of every situation, yet replete with humor. It is a genuine laugh. Willard Mack, the author, has drawn his characters from real life and it is the ring of sincerity that makes the "punch" to this most remarkable of drama. The Astra Film Corporation has entrusted the production of the picture to the able hands of George Fitzmaurice, some of the greatest Gold Rooster successes of his history. He has cast the play in superb disregard to cost and the performance is quite as remarkable as the gripping action of the film is to theme, dramatic reason why it is one of the greatest successes of recent years on the stage and why it is an equal hit on the screen. The reason is that it tells a great human story and that it is a child. A story about a woman who marries a crook to reform him—and succeeds. The last six or seven years Courtney has been identified with among greatest successes of their respective theatrical seasons, among them "Under Cover," and "Under Fire." He is an actor of resource, power and finish, and is one of the handsome men on the stage.
ANITA BUSH COMING
Beginning on Monday night the famous young dramatic star, Anita Bush, will be seen at the Grand theater; she will be seen at a complete company of performers from the Metropolitan Opera, have been doing some real sensational work. The first of the offerings will be the Gambler and the Girl, a drama full of heart interest and healthy action, and will provide an easy, cheap example opportunity to display its derrful historic ability. Miss Bush gets the credit for being the first one to introduce real drama into the Rince's theatre, and the first to panes now doing splendid work in the metropolis are the offering of her ability and aggressiveness. It is a great recommendation in itself and Miss Bush will be the charm that are the plek of the eastern dramatic stars, eye on the indicator, and watch her programs closely; they are all good, and the titles have been selected with the idea of conveying the style of the offering. This should prove to be a great engagement.

Lulu Coates and her Cracker Jacks are at Proctor's theater, Yonkers, N. Y., and are repating the success of the other state theater, the Chicago, and going great guns.

Jack Whitley, the well-known play has taken charge of Lung's cafe, Atlantic City, N. J., and has engaged a fine corps of select entertainers for the show. He would like to hear from Miss Mattie Hite, who is thought to be in Chicago. Willie Brown, my Oklahoma City representative, says: "The Aldridge Playhouse is for a few days with a special show.

Spartan secured the first basket during the first six minutes of

Jackson became irritated and twisted Favley and McAuliffe with their back

Chicago Spring Weather
One day it is balmy and beautiful and the furnace goes out
The next day it is cold and dark and dreary. When you have suffered enough and become thoroughly uncomfortable, you start the fire again.
Whether you let your coal fires go out or keep them constantly burning, the cost is excessive. Besides being unsatisfactory and uncomfortable, this constant change of temperature is dangerous to health.
The way to keep healthy and happy and defeat the discomforts of Chicago Spring Weather is to have a gas heater always handy—ready for use. A gas heater will begin to warm up a room in one minute and can be turned off in a second.
We have gas heaters to meet all requirements, and suit all pocketbooks. The smallest one we give away to anyone purchasing the hose and connections, which cost only $1.95. Larger heaters can be had from $5.50, hose connections included.
For fireplace equipments we recommend the new Humphrey "Radiantfire"—a most beautiful, effective and economical appliance. This equipment is also known as "The Opal Fire."
For factories, offices, stores, churches and halls a Gasteam Radiator is just the thing. Every radiator a complete heating plant in itself. Only connection required is gas.
All the above appliances can be paid for in small monthly installments.

Pres. Wilson’s Inaugural Address

In due and regular form, on Monday,
Maren 5, Mr, Wilson was sworn in as
Chief magistrate of this, the greatest
republic beneath the bending sky.
For the frst time in moro than fifty
years the standard bearer of tho na-
Monat Democratic party succeeds hime
selt as President of the United States
Any attempt to define the cause or
cauises of this revolution in the national
polities of our country would In large
measure bo speculative, Many and
varloua conditions were , contributory
thereto,
1, together with thousands of others,
havo read with more than ordinary tn-
sgrest the Inaugural address. ‘This more
than usual Inievest, ip easily attributed
to the relations which t.!z country sus-

‘But unfortunately there ave those here
in this country which proudly and loude
ly and ‘broadly “proclaims itself asthe
land"of the free andthe home of the
brave who are defrauded—robbed “of
every right Which a eomimon isurmantty
holds. dear.
in the course, of the President's ad-
aress he said: “As some of the Iniwles

in this" humanitarian utterance. Wo
Would. very much prefer to lielieve. In
‘his absolute candor that-he meant every
word of that “Holden Tule” apotiexny
But as wo conned. his words we could
