We had hoped to be able to publish portraits of all the officers on candidates for the Legislature but Wm. R. Green failed to get and bring his car to us as promised. However, it is hardly necessary for The Gazette to be one person how very necessary it is for every one of them to vote on Tuesday in view of the candidates and various south in December the interim breeding attacks upon not only our candidates but all of the candidates on the Republican ticket. The following is pertinent: Charge were made Monday, B. Maurice Macke, chairman of the Republican county central committee that the Democrats were carrying the distribution of candidates and ever the signature of Walter L. Brown. HON. JOSEPH C. MANNING New York City.—One of the most effective Republican speakers in the East during the campaign just closing has been the Hon. Joseph C. Manning of this city, former Alabama postmaster and state senator. Last Sunday afternoon, Mr. Manning spoke in Boston, making what Dr. A. P. Russell of that city characterized as "the greatest speech Boston Colored people have listened to for years." All who heard it are unanimous in terming it "a powerful message," he says. Mr. Manning certainly has rendered Harding and Coo'idge and the entire Republican ticket most valuable service. Candidate for Common Pleas Judge Non-Partisan Judiciary Ballot. One of our prominent attorneys says: "Miss Allen is thoroughly competent to be a judge and, as an assistant county prosecutor for the past two years, has shown great ability. She has been fair and unprojudiced and as a judge would deal fairly with all classes of Cleveland's cosmopolitan population." Mrs. Mary R. Martin, prominent in our social and club circles says: "I have known Florence E. Allen since 1900; when we were classmates in the College for Women of Western Rea Stanley E. Woods "The methods of the Democratic party in this campaign can be illustrated best by calling attention of the public tocircumsult; which new are being mailed to the votes of this county.

He has been appointed a Democratic regent in ward 11." "Drive University. She impressed me upon as a broad minded and unprincipled woman. I have watched her very successful career as a lawyer and an assistant county prosecutor with much pride. Without the slightest obstinacy, I heartily recommend her candidacy for the office of Judge of the Common Pleas Court, to the votes of Cleveland." "Be sure to vote for Florence E. Allen—on the non-partisan judiciary ballot, six-year term." CHAIRMAN HAYS' THANKS! New York City, Oct. 20, 20 Hoa, Harry C. Smith, Edition Gazette, Cleveland, O. My dear Mr. Smith.—We have had a long, hard pull for the last two years in this endeavor, and as we are now coming to what I believe is going to be a successful conclusion, I want again to assure you of my appreciation for all you have done. I know it is not necessary to write you to keep up the work till the very last minute, and I am not writing for that purpose. I want all of us to do this, or course, and I know you will, because we want to make the victory so big that it will forever make certain that a responsible political party can avoid responsibility for maladministration. I hope the time never comes in this country when either party can avoid responsibility. Through all this I have felt very deeply a sense of personal responsibility, and have taken it all rather seriously because I always felt that it was far more than a party matter. In all of the effort, you have carried a large load. I have always believed and certainly know now that the Republican press is not the "right flank of the army," as sometimes suggested—it is the main division. I have appreciated your co-operation and sympathy more than I can tell you, and I just want to tell you this now. With very warmest personal regards, I am Sincerely yours, Will H. Hays.

Fredrick Douglass and He Was Right--It Is True, Today To the Loyal Colored Voters of the state of Ohio: Dear Friends:—The U. S. Senate is the greatest deliberative law-making body of the world. In our federal scheme of government this great body represents the sovereignty of the states. Each state is represented in its sovereign capacity by the senators from that state. If we should end to the U. S. Senate a man who was cut of sympathy with the present political, economic and industrial condition as they affect us, then we would be without representation in this august body. As citizens and electors we have the right, yes, it is our duty, to make choice of men for this great office. We must choose well, choose wisely and act unitedly. We ask your earnest support for the candidacy of Hon. Frank B. Willis, who has been tried and who has met fairly, courageously and determinately every test. No pure vicious and evil enterprise ever came from southern rog grada' tam the phot play "THE BIRTH OF' A NATION." It was the shameful mission of this manhood and conception to debase the manhood, and womanhood, of our state and declared that it could not enter this state while he was governor. Every evil influence, and every influence that evil could command, was brought into action to compel him to change his mind. It was his open declaration that the manhood and womanhood of the race should not be shamefully and cowardly misrepresented; that a race which had wrought so well in so short a time, was too great to be wantonly and maliciously insulted. He kept his word. He placed before the hopes and opportunities of every loyal, aspiring, decent and intelligent colored child, like an aegis, the executive power of his offspring. Paid the price that prejudice and hatred of our people were able to exact—they found a successor to him—one who was in sympathy with their hideous enterprise and all its baleful influences; So long as good is opposed by evil, so long must we stand for men who are guided by generous motives, rather than by selfish ones; we must stand by the men who believe that every promise in our Great Charter of Liberty and rights is a guaranty; who believe that every guaranty is a living, breathing truth to be realized out of the activities of men in high places. Let us lift American citizenship to the high places of its Constitutional guarantees by electing those to whom these guaranties are sacred. Vote for the Hon. Frank B. Willis! To the Colored Voters of the Nation: We are now on the home stretch of the greatest political drive of this day and generation to dethrone the Democratic oligarchy which has been created, encouraged and fostered, by the autocratic South and led by that dreamer of world power and world dominion, Woodrow Wilson.

IN UNION IS STRENGTH COPY FIVE CENTS TERS Italian Party L ELSE, THE SEA", Douglass and He Was True, Today no real such an opportunity to disguise real patriotism and party devotion. The nation expects much of us. The party expects even more. In some states there are complaints on the part of the Colored voters against candidates on the Republican ticket for the Senate and lower house of Congress for divers reasons inspired Senator Warren G. Harding by designing Democrates and mercenary colored leaders with a view of muddying the waters that the Democrate candidates might escape unnoticed and unobserved with power and position. But please be it remembered that no matter how conservative any Democrate candidate for Congress may be, you cannot get away from the fact that if these Democrate candidates are successful, they go to Congress and come under the lash of the Democratic whip. For eight years the Democratic whip has been in the hands of southern leaders, and these southern leaders in Congress have introduced legislation touching the race only when it meant the setting back of the wheels of progress of our group. Therefore, you cannot disassociate the Democratic senator or congressman, whether in Missouri, in Maryland or in Ohio, from the Tom Watson of Georgia or the Pat Harrison of Mississippi and their kind. At this crucial period of reconstruction following the world war when the political structure is in chaos and being re-crystalized, it is our racial duty to help it that men are placed in power who will stand by a president who will administer the affairs of office in the interest of all of the people irrespective of race, creed or color. Have no misgivings as to our presidential candidates and do not be led away by the contentions and bickering touching the covenant of the League of Nations. Great as may be the issues involved in the League of Nations, they are of but small consequence when compared to the Constitution of our nation, in the enforcement of every letter of which, we above all other people, are most vitally interested. To the end that you may the clearly see the importance of voting and voting right in this election, we beg to call your attention to the fact that we have witnessed an unprecedented spectacle in the Democratic candidate having condescended to the low level of injecting the race issue in a presidential campaign. It may be that the Republican party has not done all that we might have desired done—it may be that it has not done all that it might have done—but we must confess and admit that the Republican party done ALL for the American Negro that has been done. Let us see to it by every influence that we can command and by all of the activity that we can bring into play, that our vote is brought out and counted and that we may be a most vital factor in this election of Senator Harding and a Republican Congress which will mean a new birth of freedom to us and a new impetus to world progress and humane endeavor.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 30. 1920. Senator Harding is correct in his assertion that the league has already been "scrapped" by President Wilson. It was Wilson who insisted that the Democrats in the Senate must vote against ratification with the Lodge reservations. The campaign is practically over. Next Tuesday's vote will end what in several respects will be the most vicious national political contest held in this country for many years, if ever before. For the first time in our history southern Democrats have dared to come North with their outrageously lying and slanderous literature and encounters which have been distributed freely throughout Ohio in the last three weeks, and we presume other states also, for the sole purpose of driving poor whites, and many others, into the Democratic fold, as they do with the same miserable "stuff" in the Southland. The only thing that will prevent them from succeeding, Tuesday, will be the higher standard of intelligence of the Northern poor whites and others. They have, however, succeeded in getting Gov. James M. Cox to do what he never dared to do in the past and that is to make the fool declaration that "this is a white man's country," etc. It will only help to bring to him and his party, on Tuesday next, the most stinging defeat it has ever sustained. Vote in masse for Harding, Willis and Davis. When appealed to, Gov Frank B. Willis did do all he could to help bar the infamous southern photoplay, "The Birth of a Nation," from the state of Ohio. We know because the editor of The Gazette led in that fight, as well as in the one that resulted in the ousting of the vicious companion photoplay, "The Nigger," some years ago. "The malicious "sewer" photoplay, "The Birth (slander) of a Nation," was kept out of the state until James M. Cox became governor, succeeding Gov. Willis. Gov Cox "threw down the bars," and permitted the rotten exhibition to show through the state until the editor of his paper forced it from Ohio, thru the War Department at Washington, D. C., during the World War, on the ground that its withdrawal was absolutely necessary in order to maintain and promote the morale of our people of this state. One of the strongest supporters of the infamous photoplay in all Ohio was Gov James M. Cox's newspaper at Dayton. In the face of the foregoing, well known facts it is simply impossible for any loyal member of the race to fail to vote for Frank B. Willis, Republican candidate for U. S. Senator; Harry L. Davis, Republican candidate for governor and for Warren G. Harding, Republican candidate for President, next Tuesday. Vote early and urge your friends to do likewise. Mr. Bryan has joined with certain other individuals in urging that the allied war debt to the United States, amounting to approximately $10,000,000,000 should be canceled. He declares that it can never be paid until the amount is collected from the Central Powers in the shape of indemnity; and that to attempt such collection would be to breed more wars. Hence the cost of world peace, according to Mr. Bryan, should be borne exclusively by the United States. Those sentimentalists who agree with Mr. Bryan that it is the duty of the United States to make a present of $10,000,000,000 to Europe should remember that this country made a far greater money contribution toward the winning of the war than any other; that it has levied more burdensome war taxes upon its people than any other; that had it not been for the tremen- dous efforts of America the war would probably have had a different outcome and not only would the outlays of the allied nations have gone for nothing, but quite likely they would have been compelled to pay killing indemnities to Germany. We hear a great deal about the debt of gratitude which America owes to the allies for holding the Germans at bay until American armies could get into the fray. But is it not time to remind the world of the debt the allies owe the United States for throwing in its power at the critical moment and wresting victory from what seemed certain defeat. Where would France and her allies be today if American divisions had not barred the German advance at Chateau Thierry and along the Marne in those memorable days of June, 1918 when the Germans had an otherwise unobstructed road to Paris? What Mr. Bryan advocates is precisely, what has been preached by many of the diplomats of Europe who wish to see their financial burdens lightened by whatever means. To hint that European war will follow the refusal of the United States to cancel the allied debts is little better than international immorality? Of course the league will do nothing about it for it is controlled by the very nations that seek to benefit at the expense of the United States. But it it behooves a man calling himself an American citizen to become an accomplice of the European intrigues who seek to despoil the American people of their wealth. We have had instances in our past history where demand was made by certain factions in the Old World for money contribution, with a threat of war if refused. In 1797 France attempted to blackmail the United States, whereupon Charles C. Binknack uttered those famous words, "Millions for defense but not one cent for tribute." In the early years of the 19th century the Barbary States demanded yearly tribute as the price of peace, but the American navy soon put an end to the practice. The present movement, to which Mr. Bryan has become a party, makes no pretense of bringing peace to this country, which was at least the saving feature of the instances mentioned. But it is proposed that we buy the peace of other nations, and at a cost equal to about half the whole price America paid for its participation in the war. The whole proposition is un-American, unRepublican, and essentially immoral. S JUDGE THOMAS M KENNEDY Who is a candidate for re-election to the six-year term, Common Pleas Court, has had a career that has been interesting. Much has been heard of late of self-trained men who have won success in life and Judge Kennedy is a fine example of this type of man. Born of poor parents, he secured some education by hard work and while pursuing, the trade of blacksmith decided to make the law his profession. By unremitting effort he has made his way upward in the legal profession. Mr. Kennedy was for several terms prosecuting attorney of the county and judge of the police court. He is now serving his 18th year on the Common Pleas bench and is universally known as a fair and fearless judge. To our people, Judge Kennedy is most favorably known for his fair dealing and justice and for the additional fact that for a number of years he has been an active member of the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P. Don't fail to vote for him—Adv. Do You Know Her? There is something of value at The Gazette office for Mrs. Lydia McKenney, former Mrs. Lydia Willis. This lady has lived at various points in Ohio-Cleveland, Dayton, Columbus and Cincinnati-or has visited them for short or long periods. Mrs. Willis-McKenney had relatives in Indianapolis. Any person having knowledge of her whereabouts will favor her greatly by writing the editor of this paper immediately. (Race newspapers, please copy.) THE MAN WHO DARES. "I honor the man who in the conseculous discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, tolerant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends."—Charles Sumner. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND OHIO, OCTOBER 30, 1920 AN INTERVIEW WITH FRANK B. WILLIS, Ohio's Next Senator Outlines Problems Next Senate Must Face. BY F. H. WARD. black hair which, as he nears the half-century mark, is only slightly touched with gray. "To my mind," he said, "there are five major problems which must be worked out at once. "First, there is the reorganization of the finances of the government, for if a balance is not established between revenue and expenses the country will go on the rocks. "Second, we must restore the country to a peace basis, for you know, that although the armistice was signed Nov. 11, 1918, we are still on a war-time basis; laws giving the President large powers were never repealed. You will recall that these laws gave Mr. Wilson power to consolidate departments, transfer duties, etc., so that, as far as the war is concerned, the President was the whole government. "Third, there is the final solution of the peace treaty to be threshed out by the incoming senate. "Fourth, something must be worked out in the line of compensation legislation to benefit the Americans who fought in the World War, something that will equalize the difference between the $1 a day soldiers' pay and the wages paid the men back home during their absence. "Fifth, and this is very important, is the revision of the tariff, so that American industries and farms will be protected through a duty imposed on farm products and manufactured goods shipped into this country." Mr. Willis was a member of Congress from the old Eighth Ohio district when Woodrow Wilson became president, and he fought against the initial skirmishes by the Democrats for a free trade tariff, and has followed the situation closely since returning to Ohio. I pressed the ex-governor for his individual views on what should be done in the reorganization of finances, revision of the tariff, rewarding of war heroes, solution of the peace problem, and restoration of the country to a peace basis. Willis shook his head. "These things must be worked out through conferences of committees of the new house and senate, the president and his cabinet," he said. "It must be a party solution, rather than an individual solution. The country has had too much of a one man rule." And that is the idea with which Mr. Willis will go to Washington March 4, to lend his ideas and broad experience to the highest legislative body in the land—subordination of individuality to secure team work. I turned back to the Congressional Record for April and May, 1913, and re-read Mr. Willis' views on the tariff as expressed on the floor of the house of representatives, when he was fighting a bill to reduce tariff duties. "I agree with my friends (Mr. Copley of Illinois) in what he has just said in favor of a protective tariff." Willis said at the time. "I think, Mr. Chailman, that the industrial history of this country has demonstrated beyond question that that system of tariff we call the protective system is necessary for the maintenance of the continued welfare and prosperity of the Republic. I agree with him that we ought to have a protective tariff. I agree with him, secondly, that that tariff ought to have such rates as will equalize the cost in production at home and abroad. I agree with him in the third proposition, that that difference in the cost of production at home and abroad should be ascertained not by the quasi investigations that may be carried on behind the locked and closed doors of a caucus room, but upon the findings of a tariff board or a tariff commission. Mr. Willis' views on the peace treaty are well known to almost every Ohioan, so I shall touch but lightly upon them. "At the Versailles peace conference." Willis has said. In his campaign speeches, "the United States was the only nation that asked for nothing and got less than it asked for. We sought no territory, we asked for no compensation or reparation in money. We went into the war to save civilization from utter rout, and it was eminently fitting and proper that we should seek no compensation for our vicarious service. Yet it is without a parallel in history that a nation victorious as ours was should have had placed upon it terms such as would have been dictated to a defeated nation. "In other words, after having made tremendous sacrifices in blood and treasure and having been victorious in the greatest war in a thousand years, we were asked to give up certain important attributes of sovereignty and to abandon fundamental principles of policy. "The most amazing thing about this program is that the giving up of American rights was approved and urged by the American representatives at the peace conference. Never before has the maintenance of the rights of the country in dealing with foreign nations become a political issue." Mr. Willis then explained the reservations to the treaty adopted by the Republican majority in the senate, which were vetoed by President Wilson. The first states in substance that the United States reserved the right to withdraw from the proposed League of Nations at any time it saw fit, without asking the consent of any other nation. Another reservation provided what the United States shall assume no obligation to preserve the territorial integrity or political independence of any other country unless the Congress then in being shall so decide. A third provided that the United States reserve to itself exclusively the right to decide what questions are within its domestic jurisdiction and to finally pass upon these questions. A fourth insisted that the Monroe doctrine, should not be surrendered or even modified. All these reservations were rejected by President Wilson with whom Governor Cox has announced, he is perfect accord. As I bade Mr. Wilks goodbye, he emphasized that team work is the thing needed in the next United States senate. "Just like a football game," he said, "all push together to reach the goal."

THE responsibilities confronting the next United States senate are those facing the Republican party, and they are varied and many in the opinion of former Governor Frank B. Wilts, the G. O.

I visited the big statesman, whose powerful speech placing Mr. Harding's name in nomination at the Chicago convention was a potent factor in the naming of the Ohioan, at his comfortable, roozy home on North Franklin street here. I found him in the library—a room where the walls were hidden by bookcasset—seated in a rocking chair in front of a cozy grate fire, serbibbling on a pad with the stub of a lead pencil. "Busy?" he responded to my query, "always busy, but never too busy to talk to a newspaper man."

Such a one recurs to my mind. It was a cartoon published on the day after Governor Cox delivered his acceptance speech, on the editorial page of his chief news paper supporter in New York. The banner was unfamiliar to the eye, but unmistakable in its meaning. There was not the sign of a stripe, not a suggestion of a star. Emblazoned upon a plain background in large letters were the words, "The League of Nations" and nothing more. It symbolized surrender of American independence,—a surrender, please God, that shall never be made so long as the spirit of puritanism continues to animate the hearts of American freemen. There can be no companion banner to the Stars and Stripes as a symbol of the great Republic. There shall be but one flag. It was raised first on Dorchester Heights by George Washington. But a few days ago I saw it re-raised in Marion, Ohio, by Warren G. Harding. For nearly one hundred and fifty years, and never once been lowered. Let it not be tarnished now.—Will H. Hays, Chairman Republican National Committee. DAVIS ECONOMY OR DONAHEY EXTRAVAGANCE IS GOVERNORSHIP QUESTION Latter's Official Record Reveals His Administration Costliest of All State Offices." DAVIS MAKES RECORD Cleveland Government Cost Becomes Lowest in Country Under Davis. Statistics Show. A comparison of the financial records of Harry L. Davis, Republican candidate for Governor during his several terms as Mayor of Cleveland, with that of his Democratic opponent, Vic Donahay, while Auditor of State, showing some startling facts, has just been completed. These facts speak for themselves and need no comment. On the one hand, when Mayor Davis first took office in 1916, he went in on a promise of operating the city economically. For years, his predecessors had operated the city at a loss, annual deficits running as high as $500,000. In 1916, Davis by applying business principles to the city government, kept the cost down so that at the end of the year a surplus of over $105,000 remained over. In 1917, Baltimore city officials pronounced 'cleveland the most economically operated city in the country. Statistics compiled by them on basis of United States census publications showed Cleveland's per capita cost was $12.38, by far the lowest' operating cost of any city in the country. Praise Davis' Record. Last year a Cleveland newspaper suggested an investigation of Cleveland finances. Mayor Davis asked newspapers to appoint their own com- SHALL WE BE SHALL we be charitable and agree their own League of Nations, or deliberate lie: "If at any time the United State operation of the League, this article plan for it to withdraw.

REPUBLICANS have won Ohio in all but two national election contests since 1860. Twenty of twenty-nine state elections have been Republican. Governor James M. Cox, the Democratic presidential nominee, has never polled a 60 per cent vote in the state; in three elections he has lost 50 of the 82 counties every time. In an election has the vote for Governor Cox approached that for Mr. Irvan. In 1914, Governor Cox, running for re-election, carried but 20 counties and was defeated by a plurality of 29,270. Senator Harding, on the Republican ticket for United States Senator, carried 71 counties, and won by the magnificent plurality of 102,273. The personal popularity and the constantly increasing strength of Senator Harding's candidacy clearly indicate that he will win Ohio. Now that President Wilson has entered the League of Nations fight, it is perfectly proper for the Republicans to throw the search-light on the President's numerous sayings. mittee and have the investigation made not only of finances, but of the general management of city affairs. The committee was named. It included the most prominent bankers and financiers in the city, headed by Fred H. Goff, president of the Cleveland Trust Co. They conducted a searching, exhaustive inquiry, employed their own experts and examined city officials. It lasted several months. Their official report declared they found. 1. No waste or extravagance in the affairs of the city as now conducted. 2. No activities which could be dispensed with. Besides, the investigators frequently were moved to commendation of what had been, accomplished for the city under Mayor Davis. Donahey's Wastefulness. Under E. M. Fullington, predecessor of Donahay as State Auditor, the operation of the state auditor's office cost $47,000 a year. Last year, under Donahay, the cost had jumped to $71,400, representing AN INCREASE OF 79 PER CENT. It is that sort of 'economy' which Mr. Donahay wishes to give the people of Ohio if he were to be elected Governor of the state. And the above increase does not include the reduction by Donahay of a balance on hand of $22,455.66 left him by his predecessor in office, to approximately $17,000. And it should be noted that the following work was taken out of the hands of State Auditor Donahay to be handled by other state departments: Collection of excise taxes, including all transportation, telephone, telegraph and pipe lines. Equalization for steam and interurban railways: Supervision of appraising of railways: Bank reports: All liquor tax work. Auditor's Office Most Expensive. Mr. Donahey's own annual reports are proof of his extravagance. They show that other state offices were operated at costs that were either lower or only slightly higher than under previous administrations, while the auditor's office cost nearly twice as much.
