IT COULD NOT BE DONE
Last winter when we started out to organize this much-wanted company it was said by the wise ones that we could not and would not get anywhere with it. But results speak for themselves and what we want is more such results.
WHAT WE HAVE DONE
In one season the Tate Stars Baseball Co. has bought the ground, erected a grandstand, assembled a ball club of which you cannot help but feel proud. By doing all of this the Tate Stars Baseball Co. has given you and the Fifth City a colored organization on a par with any in the country. (Something more of which to be proud.)
HAS NOT LOST MONEY
Just think of it! This company has operated not at a loss, but at a gain, its first season, when 90 per cent of the business houses were operating at a loss. What will this company do when business gets back to normal?

On the 16th day of October, A. D.
1921, before me, the undersigned
authority within and for said county,
duly authorized to administer oaths,
personally appeared Harry C. Smith,
who being by me duly sworn, says
that he is the editor of The Gazette,
a newspaper he has published in the
city of Cleveland for more than 38
years, with offices in the Blackstone
building; that a year or more before
his death Mr. William Dyson came
into my office and stated to me that
he had been endeavoring to secure
a city position for his daughter; that
he (Dyson) told me with tears in his
eyes, so great was his indignation,
that he had called upon Chairman
Maurice Maschke and asked him to
give his daughter a city position and
that said Maschke told him to have
his daughter see "Starlight" Boyd.

Cleveland, O., Oct. 22, '21.
Hon. Harry C. Smith,
Editor Gazette, City.
Dear Sir: I am not a resident or voter in the 11th Ward. However, I've read the questionnaire directed at you. The reference to the appointments secured through you, also to your constructive policy, caused me to recall an interview I had, two summers ago, with Mrs. Mitchell (mother of Mrs. Sarah Mitchell Bailey, our oldest teacher in 'point of service) who lauded you at that late date for making the fight which secured the appointment of the first local colored school teacher (who could not pass for white), her daughter. I've lived here all my life, but that was the first I'd heard of it. Only the old residents know of it.
(Signed) A Young Friend and Forever Employee.
Endorse Smith's Candidacy
Hon. Harry C. Smith's candidacy for the City Council in Ward 11 has been endorsed by the Civic League, the Baptist Ministers' Conference, the Cleveland Council of Colored Women, The Unive-sal Negro Improvement Association and 25 churches and other organizations in Ward 11.
VOTE FOR ROBERT FISHER, ESQ.
Robert Fisher, Esq., an able attorney and good friend of the editor of The Gazette is making splendid progress in his fight to be elected councilman of the $th Ward. His motto, "Home Rule not gang rule for the children, women and men of the $th Ward; no bosses or outside meddlers," is the issue. We cheerfully recommend him to the voters of his ward.
Over in the 12th Ward, where many of our voters reside, Attorney Fred E. Wirtschafter is making a red-hot fight for the council and growing in popular favor. He made a fine impression in his speech to twenty-five hundred people at Zion Hill Baptist church, E. 37th near Woodland, Monday night.
FEDERAL ANTI-LYNCH BILL
WASHINGTON, D. C.—The Dyer anti-lynching bill, imposing, heavy penalties on persons involved in mob action resulting in the taking of life, was ordered favorably reported by the house judiciary committee. The measure as reported provides that any member of a mob which puts someone to death shall be imprisoned for life or for not less than five years, and that state and municipal officials who, through neglect of duty, fail to prevent lynching, shall be imprisoned not more than five years or fined not more than $5,000. Federal courts would have jurisdiction. The following is taken from Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Anti-Lynching law: Any county in which a person is lynched, under the measure, would be required to forfeit $10,000, which would go to the family of the victim. The bill defines a mob "or riotous assemblage" as "an assembly composed of five or more persons acting in concert for the purpose of depriving any person of his life without authority of law."
A SURVEY ON WARD 11
Rev. Irving K. Merchant, director of the survey of churches and religious life, issued by the Comity Committee of the federated churches, June, 1921, among other things said: "The largest number of colored people live in the section bounded by East 9th and 79th streets, Kinsman road and Cedar avenue, especially in Wards 11 and 12. Here is found the crux of the race problem. This community has many dance halls, pool rooms and motion picture houses of a very low type and is rapidly becoming a vice district. The houses in many instances are dilapidated, especially on Central avenue, and there is evidence of an overcrowded condition. The schools, branch libraries, playgrounds are open to all, but there is some doubt if the colored people are fully availing themselves of the opportunities offered through them. It is in this section that the colored people are likely to congregate as they come to Cleveland. The attention of the church should therefore be focused here. In the 11th Ward, the colored population outnumber the whites two to one. They are densely settled among peoples of all nationalities. Here are located most of the colored churches."

Tremendous Meetings and Ovations at Zion Hill, Lane Metropolitan and Other Churches—Hall Meetings Great, Too!
Judge Florence E. Allen, and Hon. Harry C. Smith, people's candidate for the council in ward 11, were the principal speakers to a large and enthusiastic audience at a mass meeting held in Lane Metropolitan C. M. e. church, Sunday afternoon. Judge Allen talked on the chance needed in our court procedure. Mr. Smith spoke in his usual forceful manner and in scathing terms of the methods being used by the "Starlight" Fleming regime and their fruitless efforts to gloss over the miserable living conditions and low moral status in ward 11. "There is only one issue in this fight," Mr. Smith said, "and regardless of how many LIES the other side publishes and distributes in pamphlet form, or circulates in any way, to offset the aim of the people of ward 11, "STAR AND TOM MUST GO!" A standing vote was to test the sentiment of the audience, and with the exception of less than 30 people (some of whom are known to live outside of ward 11)—in that audience of at least 1200 persons it stood practically unanimous in its desire and resolve to better living conditions and the moral status in ward 11 by defeating Councilman Fleming and Mayor FitzGerald. This and this only will detrive "Starlight" and "Tom" and secure to the people of that ward the emancipation from their political domination they so earnestly desire and are so determined to have. Great applause greeted Mr. Hinchliffe's entrance and followed his excellent speech. He is undoubtedly the most popular candidate for mayor among our people of the ward and the city. Speeches were also made by Miss Hazel Mountain, Judge Silbert, Atty Sweeney and others. Mr. Smith spoke to a large audience at St. Paul Baptist church, Rev. E. J. Pillow, pastor, later in the afternoon. Mrs. Peter Ross presided. As usual, great applause greeted Mr. Smith, and throughout his speech the audience gave vent to rousing bursts of approval.
(Mrs.) Thcolia Philen..
At a meeting, held under the auspices of Boydston Post, World War Veterans. Monday evening, at the Central Ave. Bath-house, Hon. Harry C. Smith, the people's candidate in ward 11 for the City Council, gave a very interesting talk, enlightening those present of his activity when a member of the Ohio Legislation in securing legislation for veterans of previous wars. He told to the great surprise of all present, how he had materially assisted to secure for local veterans of the war of the rebellion, legislation for a bond issue that enabled them to finish the Soldiers' and Sailors' Monument in Public Square in time to dedicate it on the following decoration day; and of his fight for a state bonus bill, which he introduced at the request of veterans of the Spanish-American War. After asking the members of Boydston Post if their bill for a bonus, etc., suited them, to which question they responded it did. Mr. Smith assured them that if it suited them, it surely suited him, and that settled it as far as he used; and that they could depend on him for the measure. He was most enthusiastically received by the ex-servicemen and their friends, and was greeted with even greater applause on conclusion of his speech. This was Mr. Smith's second speech. Monday being the first being made at the Central Body headquarters, 2366 E. 55th St., to about one hundred men and women workers in his campaign. From Boydson Post meeting, Mr. Smith went to Zion Hill Baptist church, E. 37th St. Over 2200 people crowded into the church to hear Dr. Eason, American Organizer of the U. N. I. A., and Hon. Harry C. Smith. During Dr. Eason's speech he highly complimented Mr. Smith in every way, and shortly after, it was very evident that Dr. Eason had made no mistake for when Mr. Smith entered the church and walked down the aisle to the platform, he was immediately recognized by the multitude and given a great, spontaneous demonstration (applause and cheers)
A REWARD OF $1,000
A reward of $1,000 will be offered for information leading to the arrest and conviction of any person or persons found guilty of voting illegally, or election booth officials wrongfully marking, altering or miscounting ballots during or after voting hours.

which lasted until he had reached the platform and acknowledged the salute with a polite salute to the great audience. After Dr. Eason had gone on record by endorsing Mr. Smith's candidacy, during his exceptionally fine address, frequently referring to him as the next councilman of the 11th ward, he introduced the people's candidate and favorite, and then ensured another soul-stirring demonstration of applause, cheers and cries of "Smith, Smith, Smith, our next councilman!" Mr. Smith held the large audience spellbound and as he drove home point after point the applause demonstration was again and again repeated, culminating in a climax that was a veritable explosion when Mr. Smith said: "STARLIGHT" AND "TOM" MUST GO! the former into exile (from ward 11) after Jan. 1st, 1922. He was well understood also by "Star," who was standing in the rear of the church, because that individual immediately started out the church door. And by the way, this meeting was being held in the same church where, just 24 hours previously, "Star," "Tom" and Mayor FitzGerald were said to have been, the last two named speaking. The local U. N. I. A. have endorsed Mr. Smith's candidacy and are enthusiastically supporting him. Good!

The indications are that there will be very little delay after the ratification of the German treaty before our troops on the Rhine are brought home.
All The Gazette can say at this time, and until we can get a copy of President Harding's speech on "Race Prepidence," delivered in Birmingham, Ala., Wednesday, is that it is remarkable, to say the least.
In one of their numerous circulars, "Star" and "Tom" accused the editor of The Gazette of being supported by the Democratic candidate for mayor, Mr. Haserodt, and said that he (Mr. Smith) was "flirting" with the Democrats. Tuesday evening, at the Democratic meeting at Memorial school. E. 152nd St., Maschke and "Star" applauded Mr. Haserodt vigorously while he was speaking, shook hands with and congratulated him after the Democratic candidate for mayor had concluded his speech. Who is quilty?
ANSWER ENOUGH
A number of Democratic editors are addressing to their Republican Congressmen a series of questions, one of which asks the representative why he voted to repeal the excess profits tax. A sufficient answer is that the platforms of both political parties and the candidates of both political parties pledged it in the last campaign. That is answer enough.
The country does not expect the conference on limitation of armaments to accomplish everything that might be desired in an ideal world, nor very much that might be desired, but it does expect that a start will be made. The country is also confident that if there is failure of accomplishment, that outcome will not be due to the readiness of the spokesmen for the United States to meet any and all other nations half way in an effort to reduce the cost of military establishments.
COST OF R. R. REGULATION.
"The cost of regulation" is the title of an editorial in the Boston News Bureau, discussing the cost of regulating the railroads. But the cash cost is only part of the cost. One trouble with any sort of government regulation is that the regulating must be done chiefly by men who never ran a railroad themselves. They are the kind of theorists of whom Mr. Harding spoke when, in a pre-convention address, he deprecated the interference of men who had never had to meet payrolls. There are a lot of people who could tell how to run a newspaper but who never met the payrolls every Saturday night.
REDFIELD REDIVIVUS.
William C. Redfield, Secretary of Commerce in the Wilson administration, is the latest "expert" on Russian troubles to offer advice to President Harding. He thinks a special commission ought to be appointed to look after Russian relief, and believes that the relief forces now carrying aid into the country are totally inadequate to handle the famine situation. Maybe Mr. Redfield is right, but his assumption that it is up to the United States to feed the teeming millions of Russia ought to be somewhat revised. The United States is sending many thousands of tons of foodstuffs to the hungry Russians, and is doing about all that could reasonably be expected of it.

The scheduled season of our National Baseball League came to a close on Oct. 2. Owing to varied circumstances, among which was the unexpected fall of attendance in week-day and Sunday games, the full schedule was not played. The Chicago American Giants copped the leading honors of the season with a percentage of .662 in sixty-five games. St. Louis finished second with .583 in seventy-two tilts, just one point above Kansas City with ninety-one games. Detroit was fourth, .500 in sixty-six games, Indianapolis, fifth, .487; Columbus, sixth, .444; Cin. (Cuban Stars) and Green's Chicago Giants bringing up the rear.

Tates Win From Lorain
The Tate Stars from the club defeated the Lorain Holley-Krohn, Sunday, at Tate Field, 13 to 7, before a large crowd. Both of the Tate touchdowns came in the first period. The first was made by McCreary, who caught a pass from Hill and ran twenty yards for the score. A brilliant sixty-yard run by Morrison landed the second one, made after intercepting a forward pass. Lorain made its touchdown in the third period after a series of line bucks. Brunner finally going over. The rest of the game passed without anything exciting, the ball staying close to the middle of the field. Morrison, Leonard, Hill and Gaskins scored for Tates, while Brunner, Bermes and Matusak were the Lorain luminaries. In a preliminary game the Star A.C. defeated the Beachland A. C., 19 to 10.
INDIANAPOLIS, IN. — The All-Stars, composed of league players, got the jumps on the A. B. C's in the final game at Washington park, Sunday, and won out, 6 to 4, thus winning two out of three games. They pounded Jeffries hard and in the third he was vanked and Drake took the mound. The Taylor men made a rally in the eighth, getting runs off Bartlett, and Jess Petty was sent in to save the day for the leaguers.

Fools for the National Game.
Notwithstanding the fact that black baseball players are not allowed to play in the National and American leagues, the fact that all other nationalities on the face of the globe are admitted, still the champion fanatics of America are black people. In the recent world series, it is reported that in the wee hours of the night a member of our race was seen to prop himself at the Polo Grounds in New York, there to wait for twenty hours for the gates to open for the great game. Over twenty-five thousand black people paid an admission price of almost $2 to witness a fasco in which they are denied a part. This gave the black woman race pride the black people have in mind, how much self-respect they have developed. It is bad enough to ride on "jim cars," but to get into estates over a "jim corm" sport is un forgivable. What will Judge Landis say about it?—Chicago Whip.
Tate Stars to Meet Farrells
Tate Stars to Meet Farrell.
The Farrell Wildcats, one of the strongest colored grid teams in western Pennsylvania, will be the next opponent of the Tate Stars. They come here Sunday to play the local semi-pro team at Tate field. The team will play the Favorite Knits a return game. Jack Thompson, "live-wire" coach and manager of the local gridders is trying hard to give our city a worthy eleven. Tate field should be crowded with local sport-lovers the next five or six Sundays.
Bah! For These Women!
The inquiring reporter of the Chicago Tribune picked five persons at random asking them the question, "Should Champion Dempsey fight Harry Wills or draw the color line?" All were salespeople, three men opposing the match and two women favoring it. Seems as if the feminine sex are more fair-minded than the men.

Alabama Lady Was Sick For Three Years, Suffering Pain, Nervous and Depressed—Read Her Own Story of Recovery.
Paint Rock, Ala.—Mrs. C. M. Stegal, of near here, recently related the following interesting account of her recovery: "I was in a weakened condition. I was sick three years in bed, suffering a great deal of pain, weak, nervous, depressed. I was so weak, I couldn't walk across the floor; just had to lay and my little ones do the work. I was almost dead. I tried everything I heard of, and a number of doctors. Still I didn't get any relief. I couldn't eat, and slept poorly. I believe if I hadn't heard of and taken Cardul I would have died. I bought six bottles, after a neighbor told me what it did for her.
"I began to eat and sleep, began to gain my strength and now how well I managed hasn't had any trouble since. . . I sure can testify to the good that Cardul did me. I don't think there is a better tonic made and I believe it saved my life."
For over 40 years, thousands of women have used Cardul successfully, in the treatment of many womany ailments.
If you suffer as these women did,
take Cardui. It may help you, too.

They Issue A Dirty Attack On The Editor of "The Gazette"
It Was Expected and is Characteristic—Nevertheless "Star" and "Tom" Must Go—Interesting Letters.
The wonderful support (of the voters of ward 11) of the candidacy of Harry C. Smith for the City Council, a candidacy for which representatives of twenty-four churches and other organizations in the ward are responsible, has apparently driven the "Starlight" Boyd-Councilman Fleming "fraction" to desperation. They have begun, just as expected by many, to circulate pamphlets making contemptible personal attacks on Mr. Smith which are positively silly. Beware of these and others that may follow during the closing hours of the campaign. They will not be allowed to becloud the atmosphere.
an effect just the opposite of that hoped for by "Star" and "Tom." God grant us courage to throw off their vocation Nov. 8th, that we may be a free people once more. They say that they will win. It is said that there are those who boast of fraud at the ballot box and in the count, and speak of our ignorance in marking the ballot. They also say "the jobs belong to the old citizens," the "land-marks," but we came here to better our conditions, to live and rear our children and we feel it our duty as a people to stand for the things we feel and know are right in the sight of God.
The people have spoken and their motto is, "conquer we must when our cause is just." Let this also be our motto, "In God we trust," and on Nov. 8 "old glory" will wave from nearly every housetop in Ward 11 in the city of Chicago the people's choice, HON. HARRY C. SMITH, councilman of Ward 11.
Detroit, Mich., Oct. 15, '21.
Hon. Harry C. Smith,
Editor Gazette, Cleveland, Ohio.
My dear friend SMITH—The present effort of the good people of Cleveland to elect you as councilman of the Eleventh Ward bespeaks a volume in favor of the splendid record you have made as one of the foremost citizens of the great state of Ohio, and brings home that great truth spoken by Horace Greeley, "Right living has its reward."
Whether you are elected to the council or not, it must be a great source of gratification to you to note that you have with which the best element of Cleveland's electorate is getting behind your cam-
paign and I congratulate you most heartily on the showing thus far made and predict your triumphant election over my other good friend, Thomas W. Fleming. I do not think, however, that the personality of the candidate so much enters into the campaign as the respective principles represented by yourself and Mr. Fleming from a standpoint of political policy. The principles you represent are like those represented by the late Hazen S. Pingree of this city when he first ran for mayor of Detroit. Our town had been conceived much the same as your town has been conducted for five years or more, as what is known as a "wide-open" town. The good people of Detroit. Our town ha deben conducted him mayor, and, of course, you know he became a national character.
People will stand evil conditions just so long and no longer; then they will rise in their might and abolish the political system that permits it. And, as I believe in the same principles of a clean town both physically and morally, here's to your success.

DO YOU KNOW WHY --- Denion Hay Fever Hangs Around In Summer?
The wonderful support (of the voters of ward 11) of the candidacy of Harry C. Smith for the City Council, a candidacy for which representatives of twenty-four churches and other organizations in the ward are responsible, has apparently driven the "Starlight" Boyd-Councilman Fleming "fraction" to desperation. They have begun, just as expected by many, to circulate pamphlets making contemptible personal attacks on Mr. Smith which are positively silly. Beware of these and others that may follow during the closing hours of the campaign. They will not be allowed to becloud the atmosphere, coming as they do from such a source, because "STAR" AND "TOM" SHOULD AND MUST GO! A long suffering and too important life, those are 11, have decreed that they are also determined that Mayor FitzGerald and Chairman Maschke, "Star" and "Tom's" political bosses, shall go, too. Nov. 8, 1921. IT IS THE ONLY WAY THE PEOPLE OF THE WARD CAN EMANCIPATE THE M S E L V E S FROM A POLITICAL DOMINATION that has made the Central Ave. district so notorious, so dangerous to live in and so bad in many ways that its residents have risen in their might with an unalterable determination to vote "Star" and "Tom" out of the political power they have exercised and abused shamefully for five years. An outraged people in wa-d 11, and they include about all elements, say "STAR" AND "TOM" MUGGS AND GO THERES SHARE THE low moral status of and consequent miserable living conditions in the ward, and district, must be materially improved and they will be with the outgoing of these four individuals. "Star," "Tom," FitzGerald and Maschke! It is the ONLY way the people can get what they are determined to have. Again we warn the voters of ward 11 to pay no attention to the contemptible attacks being made in their pamphlets and speeches, but to keep ever before you the real issue—EMANCIPATION: To get this, "STAR" AND "TOM" MUGGER AND AND MASCHKE MUST GO!! Also please remember that it was the contemptible pamphlet-attacks on Senator Warren G. Harding, last fall, that made him President and gave him the largest plurality any candidate for President ever received.

The Ward 11 Contest.
Editor Gazette, Dear Sir:—When a farmer begins to clear up a piece of ground, the first thing he does is to clear away the underbrush and small timber. By this method he gets a clear swing with his ax at the tall timber. The 11th ward voters are doing this very thing. Ward-heelers, committee-men and councilmen must heed the request of their constituents. Resolution after resolution has been passed asking for positions for our qualified young members of the race, to the higher-up, but to no avail. The 11th ward voters are leading the way, clearing the decks for action, and they are making no mistake in choosing our Editor H. C. Smith for their leader. He has been a good friend to all old veterans of the Civil War and veterans of the Spanish-American wars and the records will prove this. I am sure he will be a stauck friend to those who have earned the bonus, adjusted compensation, etc.

Editor Gazette, Dear Sir:—We are citizens of the grand and noble state of Ohio and feel that we owe it to our children and our children's children to do away with the political slavery imposed by "Starlight" Boyd and Councilman Thos. W. Fleming. The little "folder" they have issued, headed "The Real Truth Concerning Harry C. Smith," which as a matter of fact, should have been headed "The Real UNTRUTH Concerning Harry C. Smith," is a vicious and CONTEMPTIBLE attack that, like the stories issued last fall by the Democrats against Senator (now President) Warren G. Harding, is bound to have

Nov. 8th and I am glad to state that quite a few men and women in my immediate neighborhood have promised to vote for you at the coming election. I wish for your every success and assured good health. I am, as always.
P. S.—This sheet (pamphlet) was handed me, last night, by one who attended the Bath-house meeting in Central Ave. H. J. E.
The "Star"-"Tom" combination are tearing down Smith pictures in ward 11 and in other ways trying to intimidate Smith workers and supporters. This is just the thing that will beat them on election day. All the people of ward 11 are tired of it.
TO THE CITIZENS OF WARD 11
Cleveland, O., Oct. 1, 1921.
Greeting: After several weeks' effort we have finally been successful in DRAFTING a candidate for the City Council in this ward—the Hon. Harry C. Smith, three times a member of the Ohio Legislature, his City Council member, Mr. Smith is the father of Ohio's Anti-Lynching Law and of Ohio's Civil Rights Law. He helped to enact all the legislation secured in 1894, 1896 and 1900 that has proved so beneficial to the city; its police, fire, park, school, library and all other departments. While born in the South, he is a product of the schools of Cleveland, a resident of Ward 11, and the city for more than half a century. He is a tax-payer and has been a successful business man; edition here for more than ten years. His splendid record as an editor, business man, upright, loyal and aggressive citizen is generally well known and recognized.
For five years the living conditions have grown steadily worse in Ward 11, and the city, as everyone knows, as a result of the "open town" rule of the city inaugurated by Mayor Harry L. Davis and Chairman Maurice Maschke and continued by the latter and Mayor Wm. FitzGerald. It was this power (these gentlemen) from whom "Starlight" Boyd and Councilman. Thos. W. Fleming derived, their power as political leaders of Ward 11. To their loose political control and their dominance can the tandem endure in the miserable conditions in the ward in the last four or five years. Murder, cutting, shooting, banditry and other crimes and misdemeanors and vile conditions, too numerous to mention, but with which residents of the ward are so familiar, to their sorrow and regret, have forced us to make a SUPREME effort to throw off the miserable yoke (political leadership) of "Starlight" Boyd and Councilman, which Mayors Davis and FitzGerald, or Mayors Davis and FitzGerald, have saddled on us for quite five years. Only the defeat of the two candidates, FitzGerald and Fleming, can afford us the relief desired, because the former controls the police and they must be used to accomplish the end desired. With Mr. Smith's help as Councilman—and he has pledged his best efforts to this end—we propose to materially improve the moral status and better the living conditions in Ward 11 and make it again a safe and decent place in the city. We have been the best police in the country, and they will again prove it if given "free rein" to act and are not "hobbed" as they are and have been by such orders as No. 73, under Mayors Davis and FitzGerald.
In view of the foregoing, and much more, we respectfully ask ALL voters of Ward 11 to join with us and help vote out the "Starlight" Boyd-Councilman Thos. W. Fleming political control and domination of Ward 11, and Mayor FitzGerald's control of the city.
(Signed) THE CENTRAL BODY of Ward 11 Citizens' Organization, Eugene R. Brown, Press. Headquarters: 2366 E. 55th St., Cleveland, Ohio.
"HUMAN NATURE'S FOULEST BLOT."
My ear is pained
My soul is sick with every day's report
Of wrong and outrage, with which the earth is filled.
There is no flesh in man's obdurate heart.
It does not feel for man: the natural bond
Of brotherhood is severed as the flax
That falls asunder at the touch of fire.
He finds his fellow guilty of a skin
Not coerced like his own: and having power
To enforce the wrong, for such a worthy cause
Dooms and devotes him as his lawful prey.
Thus man devotes his brother, and destroys:
'Tis human nature's broadest foulest blot.
—Cowper.

Section 6288.

(93 v 163 11.)
Section 6289. This chapter shall not relieve a person concerned in such lynching from prosecution for homicide or assault for engaging therein. (93 v 163 12.)
OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW
Upon the request of many readers: of The Gazette we print below the text of Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Civil Rights law which the editor had enacted while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894:
Sec. 12940. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barber-shop, public conveyance by land or water, theater or other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen, except for reasons applicable alike to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, facilities or privileges thereof, shall be fined not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or both.
Sec. 12941. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars to the per-meritorious person arrested in any court of competent jurisdiction in the county where such offense was committed.
This law has repeatedly been held constitutional and good law by the Ohio Supreme court. The trouble is our people will not use it as often as they should, but expect them what they should and must do for themselves, under it, in the courts.

accomplished if necessary by resorting to illegal methods in the booths.
"In the inner circle of politics it is well known, and has been for four or five years that there are the booths of certain precincts in wards 11, 12 and 8 and elsewhere who have been committing illegal acts for which the law provides a penitentiary sentence if they are convicted.
"The gossip of the past week that Hinchliffe and myself will be defeated at any price, clearly indicates that we have been the large majority of the Republican voters in ward 11 and the knowledge that popular favor has swung toward us has prompted some supporters of the FitzGerald-Fleming faction to indulge in such talk as is going the rounds in the ward," the councilmanic candidate added.
At all these meetings large crowds assembled and cheered Smith as he pledged himself to rid the people of his ward of the "political domination of 'Starlight' Boyd and his lieutenant, Thomas Fleming, who were made Republican leaders in the ward for Mayor FitzGerald." Reference to the fact that "Starlight" was taken from Clayton hall last Tuesday evening by a policeman for disturbing a political meeting brought forth a roar of applause from all the audiences.
