But your watch, a mechanism far more delicate are you as careful to keep it in good condition? Twenty-four hours a day without interruption your watch must run. Meanwhile the oil evaporates and becomes gummy, tiny dirt particles sift in, even through the most tightly fitting case, and eventually the timekeeping performance of the watch is impaired. To give your watch a square deal, have it cleaned, oiled and adjusted at least once a year and avoid heavier repairs later. Experts in our Service Department will do this for you at moderate cost.

THE GAZETTE ESTABLISHED, AUGUST 25, 1883 And Issued Every Week on Time Since FRESH OHIO NEWS READ CAREFULLY And Pass on to Your Friends—A Discussion of City Affairs By Harold Smith Rausch-Candidate For the City Council in the Fourth District. One of the political machine's boasts that under the new form of government "The City has lived within its income", for which the machine ventures to take credit. This statement is misleading. The City has only lived within its income because the machine has made its income greater by placing a heavier tax burden upon you. The reports issued by the Director of Finance prove that this administration has spent more than the preceding. In 1923 expenses were under 13½ million; in 1924 they were over a million higher, and he says this year will mount to over 16 million. Most of this is for salaries which range as high as $25,000 per year each. To the average family of five this means an expense of over $80 per year for current expenses alone which you pay for either in taxes, or Harold Smith Rausch. consequent higher rents. In addition to current expenses you must stand for numerous bond issues. You now have a bonded debt of 120 million dollars, which at the present rate of taxation and schedule will take till 1971 to pay off, with interest. You are now being asked, and it is now proposed that you mortgage yourselves, for $230,000,000 more, or about $1,150 per family EXTRA. In addition to tax for City Government, remember, that you must also support County, State and National political machinery. The national debt before the War was about one billion dollars, or $50 a family. It is now over 20 times as great, or about $1,000 per family. Schemes of Cleveland politicians, it carried out will make the per capita debt for municipal bonds greater than the per capita proportion of the National War Debt. With all its graft and corruption in past years Cincinnati's per capita debt is only $100, and Akron's about $65. Have you been getting your money's worth? "Big Business" is served first, and you get what is left, high taxes on your little homes, or increased rents. New methods of voting will not solve your problems and needs. Idle talk, negligence, inefficiency and graft will not do it. What is most needed today is common honesty, and whole-hearted, active interest in the needs and concerns of all the people. Just to mention a few things. What have your present councilmen done in regard to: 1. Abuses in the police department and prosecutor's office. 2. Suppression of indecent newspapers. 3. Abatement of the smoke nuisance, which causes an annual property loss of millions of dollars, and increases the drudgery of the housewife five-fold. 4. Correction of downtown housing conditions, now the source of disease, and high mortality among our tenement dwellers. CADIZ—Mrs. Debora Simpson of Flushing, visited relatives here, Sunday,—Mr. Wm.

Solution of transportation difficulties. 6. Fair treatment of all parts of the City in respect to public betterments and utilities. Only a few parts of the city get public bath houses, gymnasiums, swimming pools, and recreational centers. We have had a municipal light plant for years yet no serious endeavor has been made to extend its service to all parts of the city. It seems unfair that only a few of the numerous taxpayers of Cleveland should have the benefit of municipal heating, and low rates for municipal lighting. The proponents of the new bond issue for the light plant say: "It does not mean any substantial extensions to the plant, but merely to put the existing plant into first class condition so that it can furnish the service which the department has already contracted for". Why issue bonds and saddle the city with debts? If all who are equally entitled are not to be benefitted the city? I feel that all present municipal activities, now serving but a portion of our population should be extended out of earnings, if meritorious, to serve all citizens alike, who would use and desire the same, or else wholly be discontinued. By your first choice votes elect Harold Smith House to the City Council from the fourth district. He stands for clean, honest and economical city government. He is broadminded, too.—Aud. Limitless Opportunity Seen. For Trained Leaders Who Wish to Serve, Says Dr. Westermann. Atlanta. Ga., Get. 28. —African of forj illimitable opportunities for in luchee and usefulness to well train Afro-Americans, capable of lead ership, according to Dr. D. Wester mann, professor of African lan gues in the University of Berlin who is now in America studying the status of the race in this country. As missionaries, educators, and ar ecultural and industrial leader they could render the greatest serv ice to the natives, who are still immeasurably below the standards attained by our people of America. As an illustration, I Dr. Westermann mentioned the very valuable work done some years ago in German Togoland by five graduates of Tuskegee Institute who were employed by the German government to instruct the natives in the production of cotton. Partly as a result of their work, Africa is fast becoming one of the great cotton-growing countries of the world, and the native growers are profiting accordingly. In the field of religious effort, the work of Max Yergen, an Afro-American, sent out to Africa some years ago by the Y. M. C. A., is exercising a very wide influence and is favorably known in three continents. Dr Westermann, a former missionary to Africa and in close touch with conditions, believes that there are similar opportunities for great usefulness in many lines and that well-trained Afro-Americans, destruous of going to Africa in the spirit of service, would be welcomed both by the natives and by the colonial governments. Dr. Westermann expressed great gratification at the high degree of education, character, and material prosperity attained by many Afro-Americans. He was particularly struck by the ability manifested in the efficient management of Tuskegee Institute and of the great Tuskegee hospital, which he recently visited.

Stanley Durkee's "Jim Crow" Policy—Can "Negroes" Be Insulted? Washington, D. C.—In accepting the presidency of the Curry School of Expression, from which "Negroes" are excluded, Dr. J. Stanley Durkee showed his utmost contempt for the race and his ruthless disregard for the finer feelings of the very group which he exploits to the amount of $10,000 a year. In fact, this act shows that he considers the race no more than dumb cattle. Unfortunately, too, there are "Negroes" who have not undergone sufficient mental development to be insulted, and they are, therefore, backing Dr. Durkee as constituents of his machine and recipients of his patronage. Such poltroons show the very depths from which the race has had to climb in its rise from the degradation of slavery; but fortunately the race is coming up, pushing up, to higher ground; for the thinking "Negroes" of this country will never rest until this insult of Dr. Durkee has been avenged. Insult admits of no compensation. It degrades the mind in its own system and forces it to recover its level by revenge. A man usually forgives an injury, but who can forgive an insult? Are "Negroes" less than men? No real man, no worth while group will submit to such an insult. He who allows himself to be insulted deserves to be so; and if not resented, it goes on increasing. Fielding has well said: "As it is the nature of the kite to deceive little birds, so it is the nature of some minds to insult and tyrann- ize over little people." This very course has characterized Dr. Durkree's administration. He has lived among the Howard students and teachers as a prince holding himself aloof from a low castle that might contaminate him. Members of his family will meet "Negroes" on the campus will speak to them only in a patronizing fashion; and meeting these self-same "Negroes" in the city, they never see them. Former presidents of Howard even sent their children to this institution. Dr. Durkree sends his to inferior colleges of the city. Between the members of the families of the former heads of Howard and the students there, developed lifelong friendships, which have proved helpful to the whole race. The Durkree studiously avoid any such contact. For example, it is reported that Mrs. Durkree, upon being asked by the wife of a white member of the faculty why the former did not visit the latter, Mrs. Durkree replied that she did not make such visits because it would mean that she would have to visit also the wives of the "Negro" members of the faculty. The issue between Dr. Durkree and the race is clear. He has insulted the whole group. He has treated all "Negroes" with the utmost contempt, and so has Dr. Charles R. Brown, the chairman of the Board of Trustees, in his insulting letter saying that he and his coworkers are backing Dr. Durkee in spite of these offenses. Any race that will not resent such an insult must stand before the world adjudged an aggregate of arrant cowards. But let the public be assured that the self-respecting "Negroes" of this county will rise to the occasion. T. will, never cower in the dust of humiliation. They will acquit themselves like men and be strong. ONLY WOMAN CANDIDATE For The City Council From the Third District is One of the Best Members of That August Body—Vote For Her. Marie R. Wing, daughter of the late Judge Francis J. Wing, was born and has lived in the third district all her life. She is 39 years old, received her education at Bryn Mawr college, and is completing her four years' course at Cleveland Law school in preparation of the state bar examination in June. Miss Wing has just resigned from the position of executive secretary of the Consumers' League in order to give her full time, to law study and city council duties. She has been active in social work, especially movements having to do with the improvement of working conditions, for eighteen years. She was a member of the Women's Industrial commission to Europe, 1919. She was active in the organization of the Business Women's club, in 1919, and of the Women's Council for the Promotion of Peace, in 1923. She is chairman of the industrial relations committee of the Federation of Women's clubs and is the only woman candidate for city council in the third district. Speaking of her stand as an independent member of the present city council, Miss Wing says, "I believe that municipal government should be entirely free from domination by political machines either national or local, and that councilmen should be responsible to the constituents and not to any special interest. I believe that the city government has a primary responsibility for the health, safety and welfare of its citizens—men, women and children. I have worked, therefore, and will continue my efforts for measures such as the establishment of a women's bureau in the police department, improved parks and play grounds and measures for the protection of health," etc. TRYING TO INJURE HIM. Councilman Fielder Sanders, candidate for re-election, fourth district: "If I am indorsed by the klan, it is wholly without my knowledge and I SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS E. J. GREGG, THE PEOPLE'S CANDIDATE! Remarkable Spectacle of Preacher and Gambler; of Lady Church and Club Worker and the Rooming-House Keeper, All Working and Cheering for the Same Man Is Astounding! believe it is done to hurt me. I never have been indoors before. I am not a member of the klan. I am not in sympathy with the klan's objects and have always opposed them. I assisted in drawing the ordinance which is now on the city's books prohibiting meetings of the klan. I firmly believe there should be no discrimination between American citizens because of race or religion." Our people know Judge Sandera too well to believe for a single moment that he is a kluxer or in sympathy with that lawless and anti-American organization. Fielder Sahers is too big mentally to affiliate in any way with the K. K. K.—Editor Gazette. FISHEIS NOVEL AND UNIQUE HOLIDAY BOOK. The burning of the beautiful steeple of St. Mary's Catholic church W. 30th St. at Carroll Ave., which was struck by lightning and destroyed by fire, May 3, 1225, has furnished the inspiration for one of the finest holiday books of the season by Attorney Robert Fisher, Ulmer bldg. While developed around the steeple the book is entirely non-sectarian and will delight all who believe in clean and tight-living. From the idea of the steeple, as "The Silent Monster" and guide for a correct life the author has worked out a well worth-while book for the holidays, birthdays, and other anniversaries: it is entitled "Fisher's American Holiday and Gift Book for All Occasions". The book contains four divisions: (1) Life, Things and People; and the Steeple; (2) The Author and its People; (3) The Holidays and Anniversaries, including some o Attorney Robert Fisher. which you may not have thought; (4) Miscellaneous Brain Creations, including very fine poems on "Looking Ma and the Kids in the Eye," "An Appreciation of My Deceased Mother," "Silent Friends," "Just Lean Me in the Door," "Fear" as one of our greatest enemies, "When Mother Bobbed her Hair," and others, serious, patriotic, friendship, sentimental and comic. The book is compact and attractively, gotten up in holiday finish and contains nearly 150 selections in verse and prose. There is a contents page, and likewise a complete index. It is a book written in language understandable by all and that will appeal to the everyday man and woman; is clean and wholesome throut, and is especially suited for the growing boy and girl. The book is one you would care to peruse in your leisure moments and win enjoyment and new pleasure in life. It is thoughtful and entertaining. The book sells for $1.50 in fine and attractive, holiday binding or for 75 cents in paper cover. It may be procured from Robert Fisher, author of the book, attorney-at-law, $19 Ulmer building, or at the bookstores. The last few days have brought out one thing in the councilmanic race in the third district of Cleveland that previously was not generally known—the fact that E. J. Gregg, of 4608 Central Ave., is in the race for the city council at the behest of the people of all classes of the third district and not as a result of individual desire for political advancement. The proverbially impossible thing as regards the colored people has actually been done voluntarily by the people of the third district who want able representation in the council—these colored people have come together! Monster mass meetings, bubbling over with spontaneous enthusiasm, attest to the fact that the people themselves want Gregg and mean to elect him on November 3rd to represent them. These meetings have been sponsored by voluntary supporters of Dr. Gregg, and held recently at Zion Hill Baptist church, Rev. C. C. Aller, pastor; Triedged Baptist church, Rev. Dr. Yewell, pastor, and at several other Baptist and Methodist churches within the district. The large majority of ministers of all denominations is for Gregg. But this does not mean that Gregg can be called the church's own candidate, for he is being boosted and praised by men and women who are, not known to any church—people whose lives, beliefs and pleasures differ from those of the church-goling public. Deacons and class-leaders, pool-sharks and crap-shooters—all are vieing with each other in proclaiming the advantage of voting for Gregg. IN UNION M. H. Will Pesent Segregation Case To U. S. Supreme Court—Catholics, Jews and Others Equally Interested With Our People. New York City.—Two of the most eminent lawyers in the United States will present the argument against segregation in the case which will be heard before the U. S. Supreme Court the middle of November. They are Moorfield Storey of Boston and Louis Marshall of this city, eminent constitutional authority. Mr. Marshall will open the argument, present the case at length and Mr. Storey will reply to the arguments of the opponents and close it. The case concerns the right of property owners to make arrangements not to sell to certain persons and to enforce such agreements at law. It is the contention of our attorneys that since the Supreme Court in the Louisville Case of 1917 declared segregation by law or ordinance to be unconstitutional, it is equally illegal for the courts to enforce private segregation agreements. The case arose out of a sale of property in Washington, D. C. situated at 1727 "S" Street, N. W. to Mrs. Helen Curtis. The property had previously been included in an agreement not to sell to "Negroes". White property owners who were a party to the agreement, went to court and enjoined the owner from selling to Mrs. Curtis. On appeal of the case from the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia to the Court of Appeals, the higher court upheld the injunction. The case was then appealed to the U. S. Supreme Court where it is to be heard, next month. A formidable array of counsel, also retained by the N. A. A. C. P., will assist Messrs. Storey and Marshall: Arthur B. Spingarn. Herbert K. Stockton, James A. Cobb, Henry E. Davis, James P. Schick and Wm. H. Lewis, former Assistant U. S. Attorney General. This case is regarded as one of the most important battles in behalf of our civil rights that has ever been fought in the U. S. Defeat will mean the creation of segregated districts throughout the country and the relocation of our people to the position occupied by Jews in Russia in the days of the "pale" or ghetto. Victory will mean a new affirmation that we are entitled to equal accommodation and treatment before the law with all other citizens of the land. It has been pointed out in connection with this case that not only are our people involved but also all minority groups of the country as well. If we can be segregated the way is opened for the segregation of Catholics, Jews, Irish, Italians or any other religious or racial minority. thus causing people outside of the district to "wonder what manner of man is this Gregg, that all the people seem to want him elected?" Masons and Moose, A. U. K. & D. of A., and U. N. I. A., Royal Circle and American Woodmen, as well as the "hello, Bill" of the Elks, can be heard and seen in active support of E. J. Gregg, showing that the fraternal orders are supporting him, and the working-laboring-man at the outset declared his trust in him. So in view of the above—of the wide separation between the varied interests that are supporting Gregg, the words of Dr. L. L. Rodgers, press. of the Gregg-for-Coucil club, must be true when he declares that: "Gregg is a fearless and fair man who believes in fair play toward all. He stands for equality of opportunity and protection—not only as to race, but as to classes. He believes that whether a man's business is running a church or store, a poolroom or gambling house, he ought to have the full amount of protection allowed him under the law, regardless of his standing in the community or of his race." The people of the third district are "hellbent" on electing E. J. Gregg on November 3rd, and it seems that all forces not originally in line with Gregg will eventually fall fully in his line in order to be "with the winner" for, as it stands, Gregg looks like a sure winner. The colored people are together—for Gregg, and say that he will go in on first choice votes! DR. GEO. P. CRAIG, Campaign Manager.—Adv.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 31, 1925. The Republican ku klux governor (Edward Jackson) of Indiana, has appointed what is believed to be a kluxer (Arthur R. Robinson, Republican) as the successor to the late Samuel M. Ralston, a Democratic U. S. Senator from that state. This, it is said, is proving more or less embarrassing at the nation's capital and to all Republican U. S. Senators with the possible exception of 2 or 3 who are tainted with the suspicion of being kluxers or kluxer-sympathizers. Whither is the "Grand Old Party" drifting, anyhow? Elsewhere, in The Gazette will be found an exceptionally interesting discussion of city affairs by Harold Smith Rausch, a candidate for the city council in the fourth district. It is the sort of discussion that voters throughout the city should become familiar with. And Mr. Rausch ought to be and we sincerely trust will be nominated, for the good work along this line he has already started. He is not only capable, but broadminded. Therefore, we urge our readers in his district to vote for Mr. Rausch. Some persons tried very hard to place the blame for the loss of the Clyde liner, "Commanche", which burned off the coast of Florida, Saturday night, Oct. 17, "25, on its colored seamen who were charged with being drunk and unmanageable. Unfortunately for the malicious ones, the captain of the "Commanche" came forward with a statement that the sailors were seamanlike and sober. And thus was spiked another prejudiced attack upon the race. For that was what it was intended to be. 'NOTHER "SPECIAL ASSISTANE!' It is being announced, this week, throut the country, with "a flourish of trumpets" that Wm. C. Matthews of Boston has been appointed a special assistant to the U. S. Attorney General and ordered to Lincoln, Neb. to assist in certain federal prosecution cases. Atty. Matthews was a "Coolidge Negro" during the last presidential campaign and at the head of the "jim crow" division of the Republican National Executive committee. These "special assistant" appointments do not amount to but very little as recognition for the race but do not the appointees some extra cash. They are but temporary appointments, made to appease "Negroes" who are clamoring for real appointments worth while. With them it is intended to fool the great mass of our people by making them think they have something when in fact they are getting next to nothing. Do not be misled by such cheap political chicanery. It has characterized the Coolidge attitude toward our people from the very first. This latest "appointment" (Matthews) is simply another case of giving us the shadow for the substance. SHOULD BE DEFEATED! The Citizens' League bulletin refers to Councilman Thomas W. Fleming's candidacy for re-election to the City Council, from the third district, in the following terms: "Fleming has misused his political influence; although he has a large group of supporters and followed in his support, the better element in his district." Fleming undoubtedly has a large group of supporters in the members of the local Republican organization, but the League is wrong when it says that he has a large group of "followers". It is also right when it says Fleming "is opposed by the better element in his district". Conditions in his ward (11) and the 12th ward are again so very bad (growing steadily worse for the past six or seven years while he sat in the City Council) that the better element of Fleming's own people, in these two wards particularly, have been forced to oppose him. There seems to be nothing they can do that will encourage him to do the least thing or even try to do anything to better conditions referred to. Houses of prostitution, gambling dens, bootleggers and "dope" peddlers' headquarters, and "speakeasies", buffet-flats and many other dens of iniquity flourish to a greater extent in what is known as the Central-Scovill-Woodland Avenue district (wards 11 and 12) than any other section of Cleveland. The defeat of Councilman Fleming, on Tuesday next, is the only thing that will convince the Republican-Democratic control of the city of Cleveland that the decent people of wards 11 and 12, and the rest of the third district, are determined to have vastly improved conditions in their section of the city. Indeed, it is the only thing that will compel that control to afford the relief so sadly needed and so greatly desired. PRIME SPORT NEWS Flowers Outpoints Malone. Flowers Outpoints Malone. St. Paul, Minn.—Tiger Flowers of Atlanta easily won over Jock Malone, who had been on the here, last week Friday night. Flowers won nine rounds, the other going to Malone. Tiger fouled Malone twice, but Jock refused to take the decision that way. He said he wanted to give the fans a run for their money and despite his injury kept going. Promoter in such procedure was a mark of good sportsmanship and he insisted on paying Malone $1,000 extra for his service to the game. Dempsey-Firpo Fight Recalled. New York City—Wm. L. Muldoon, commissioner of the New York state athletic commission, at a conference, last week, of all boxing referees in the commission's jurisdiction, instructed the referee that hereafter when any boxer falls out of the ring and is assisted back by anyone he shall lose the decision. His action recalled the incident during Dempsey-Firpo fight in 1922 when Luis knocked him on the ring and newspaperman, at the ringside, helped him back into the ring. Hansbary "Making Good", Again. Ted Hansbary, as all will recall, was an all-scholastic halfback sensation when he played at West Tech. He ran wild over local high school teams. He was fast and strong. Later, he went to Oberlin. Two years ago, he was a candidate for the Oberlin team. He wasn't the 1930 "Ted" Hansbary. sensation that his reputation promised. He had his speed and his strength on he also had serious faults on the offense. He didn't seem to have any confidence in himself. He looked very green. But at times he flashed brilliantly enough to indicate that he would be a star once the rough spots were polished out. Last year Hansbary was out of school. He is back, this year, and on the way to the job. In the early games, he was Oberlin's chief ground gainer. He hits the line hard and his speed carries him around the ends. And he has been making almost half the tackles in the backfield. He did not play, recently, and that probably is one good reason why Oberlin was held to a scoreless tie by Mt. Union. Certainly, Oberlin lacked a punch that Hansbary previously had supplied. He will be a member of the Oberlin eleven that plays Case at Holliday. He will be a member of the team and it will be his first appearance before a home crowd since his high school days. His appearance, however, depends upon his condition as he was hurt in a practice before the Mt. Union game, a ligament being torn in his leg. He thinks he will be able to play, Saturday, however. Wills Toys With Johnson. with the well-known Newark, N. J., 12,000 persons, who paid more than $25,000, saw Harry Wills score a technical knockout over Floyd Johnson of Iowa, in the first round of their scheduled 12 round bout, here at the Newark armory, Monday evening. If Harry fails to knock out his white opponent in one round, he is damned by the prejudiced sport-writers of the daily newspapers. If he does, as was done Monday evening in the case of Floyd Johnson, the aforementioned prejudiced daily newspaper sport-writers damn him just the same. So what is the poor fellow to do in order to please them? Here is how it "happened": with a left that was short. They went close and Harry pounded the body with both hands. Wills twisted Johnson's left hand behind his back and THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY, OCTOBER 31, 1925.

Gala midnite ramble, tonight (Fri- day). St. John A. M. Ei church, Rev. Ed- ward A. Clarke, A. M., D.D., pastor, has given over $10,000 to the cause of education during his pastorate of the last five years. This is probably a larger amount than any other of our churches in this country has given. Dr. Clarke is a graduate of Wilberforce ‘University, a former teacher there, and a former presi- dent of Lincoln University, " Mis- souri. He left the teaching profes- sion to enter the ministry and has been particularly interested in edu- cation. St, John's gives an average of $2,000 a year, for education.

A contract existing between the two boards, the judge ruled, re- quires Shaker Heights to admit all school children sent from Beach- wood to its classes. The Shaker Heights board contended that the contract had been violated: by Beach- wood, and that they were no longer required to abide by it. ‘The Shaker Heights board, through its attorney, Ben B. Wickham, denied that there had been any discrimination against our children, ‘The suit In which the court order was asked was brought through County Prosecutor Stanton At the request of the Beachwood board. Stanton's assistant, EB. J. Thobaben, argued the case before Jndge Pearson. Beachwood has no schools of its own. Its contract with Shaker Heights provides that it must pay $30 week tuition for elementary school children and $4 a week for high school children, A new system of rendering bills to Its subscribers will be inaugurated by The Ohio Bell Telephone Com- pany, during November, according to e C. Moule, division commercial su- perintendent. The new aystem is Known as rotation billing. Under the new plan, the company will issue Its bills in six groups, dated the Ist, Gth, 11th, 16th, 21st and 26th of each month. ‘A somewhat similar system Is now being used by other local uttl- ities, The new system will bring all charges for long distance calls and additional local ‘messages up to the date of the bill, thus making it eas- jer for the subscriber to associate hix usage of service with the bill. It will serve to prevent accumulation of billing work at the end of the month, overcoming congestion in the tele- phone business office. thereby mak- ing it unnecessary for subscribers to endure long waits. In order to make the change, the Ohio Bell will render two bills during November to a large per cont of Its subscribers The first will be dated Nov. 1 and will adjust exchange service charges in accordance with the new billing date. The sceond bill will be dated the new billing date as Nov. 26, etc and will bring charges for additional local and long distance messages up to the date of the bill. THIRD DISTRICT CANDIDATES. a ee eee a the City Council in the thir dis-| trlet ere: Harry N. Harper Dr. E. J. Gregg Dr, Joe T. Thomas Thos. W. Fleming ‘The last named is a member of the Council and has been for some years, placed there by the local Re- publican organization. If It is pos sible for a human being to prove his unfitness for the position in more ways than Fleming has, and this is not only notorious but gen erally acknowledged In that section of the city, particularly in the elev- enth, his home ward, we fail to see It. Two years ago with practically no opposition from his own people, Fleming failed to secure enough votes to elect him, in spite of ev- erything that was done by the or- ganization and its satellites. About fifty of Councilman Finkle’s votes had to be added to Fleming's total in order that the latter could be an- nounced as having been “elected” This is permissable under the P. R. plan of voting. Four years ago, the registered vote in ward 11 was in excess of eight thousand and there were not a half-dozen votes in that ward that were not cast on election day. More than this: illegal votes to the number of several hundred, at least, were also east. This, too, is notorious. And yet the board of elections’ return, after the election, was approximately five thousand, four hundred cast, more than two thousand six hundred less than were registered. And the best the or- ganization could do was to give Fleming a plurality of about six hundred when as a matter of fact he had been defeated by at least two thousand, and this, too, in the face of all else that was done that eventful day to secure Tom's return to the «ity Council. Much, very much more that is extremely inter- esting could be written of that memorable contest, four years ago, and will be, if found necessary. But enough has been given to show that it our voters in the third district will concentrate their votes on any one of the other three Afro-Amer- fean candidates for the Council in that district they will not only get rid of Fleming but put a member of the race in that more or less au- gust body who will be of service particularly to his constituents of color, as well as the others in the district. Something sadly needed. Harper, Thomas and Gregg are all better educated men than Fleming and have more ability. All are in- dependent candidates and free from the rule of the boss and the “or- ganization”. They are, therefore, in a position to be helpful to the long suffering people of wards 11 and 12 particularly, in event of their election to the Council, next month.

If this is not done, the chances are we will have no representative because “the power of the organization to put Fleming over” has been greatly weakened in the last two years, particularly by Corlett and Coyle exposes and by the outcome of the last spectal elee- tion when it went down to such a signal defeat. Then, too, several of Tom's closest and most active sup- porters have “soured on him" in the last two years, for good and sufficient reasons, while he has been growing steadily more and more in disfavor with the voters of both groupe or races in the district. | URINE.
