MAN DEFIES MOB THREATS VOL. I, NO. 15 MAN INJUNCTION IS GRANTED O.E.S. IN LODGE FIGHT Grand Master Holmes of Seattle Masons Ordered to Keep Out of Eastern Star Affairs. COURT HOLDS HOLMES ACTED WITHOUT POWER Masonic Law States That Grand Master Cannot Suspend Individual Members. (Associated Negro Press) Seattle, Wash., Apr. 27.—In the matter of complaint of Jephthah and Mt. Ranier Chapters O. E. S. vs. E. H. Holmes, grand master of Masons and co-defendants, the application for a temporary injunction and the de- fendants demurrer to the complaint came up for hearing in the superior court before J. T. Ronald. After hearing the arguments of the attorneys the court overruled the demurrer holding that he would grant an injunction as asked for by Jephthah and Mt. Ranier Chapters restraining Holmes and his co-defendants from committing certain acts complained of by the plaintiffs. The court directed the plaintiff's attorneys, Morris and Shipley to prepare an order enjoining Holmes as a Mason or as grand master of Masons from interfering or attempting to dictate concerning the affairs of the Eastern Star. The court commenting on this phase of the case remarked as follows: "The defendant Holmes, as a Mason, had no right to interfere with or dictate to the Eastern Star than I have and I am not either a Mason or a member of the Eastern Star." Other points brought out during the trial by the attorneys were, that when the Grand Lodge convened the grand master had no further power as all power was vested in the grand lodge during the session; that the grand master had no right to set the laws aside during the session of a grand lodge; that master Masons who have been suspended should have a complete remedy at the hands of the grand lodge which was compelled to do them justice by the laws of Masonry whether they asked for it or not. VIEWS AND INTERVIEWS "I have found in my experience throughout the country," said F. D. McCracken, local real estate dealer, "that a great deal of predjudice against the Negro is due to the lack of attention given to their property. We do not keep our lawns trim and clean nor do we keep our homes in good repair. For this reason, it is generally claimed that once a Negro begins to live in a district, property in that district begins to decrease in value." "How do you find conditions in St. Paul?" Mr. McCracken was asked. "Very much better," he replied. "Our people here, in this respect, are very attentive. One avenue here, I pride in calling 'St. Anthony Beautiful.'" Mr. McCracken also urged property owners and tenants to give their homes continual attention and to join in with the various Clean Up and Paint Up campaigns. Mr. McCracken was for three years government expert in housing. The Hamline University baseball nine, with Sam Stephens in the box, defeated the Minnesota Central High 1 to 0 in a seven inning game Wednesday afternoon. The game was played on Hamline's ground. ```markdown ``` THE NORTHWESTERN BULLETIN Problem Rests with Young People—Dr.Roman IF MORE THAN 5515 PERSONS READ The Bulletin In the Twin Cities and The Northwest Last Week, it means THE BULLETIN represents quality plus growing prestige.

ROMAN Women Voters Plan Meet in Washington Women Voters Plan Meet in Washington League of Women Voters to Entertain Women From Sister Republics Over World. (Associated Negro Press) Washington, D. C., Apr. 27.—Women from 22 countries, including Cuba and the Phillipines planned for mutual co-operation in a general movement for advancing women's rights at the Pan-American Conference of women in Baltimore, in connection with the annual convention of the League of Women Voters. Representatives of every country in North, South and Central America, including Haiti were present, with the possible exception of San Salvador. The questions on which Pan-American women will seek to unite their work cover child welfare, education, white slavery and the civil and political status of women. The convention of the League of Women voters will enable the visiting women from sister republic to get a glimpse of suffrage in action. The convention followed the session of the Pan-American conference, and as the sessions were similar to those of a national political convention it illustrates for the visitors how the women of the United States are exercising the political power they have obtained. As a result of the Convention and conference, suffrage leaders here expect an immediate and general expansion of the movement for equal rights for women.

Noted Physician Believes Race Problem Will Be Solved in Next Twenty-five Years. In a lecture last Sunday evening at the People's Church, on "Back to Taw," Dr. C. V. Roman, noted physician of Meharry Medical College, declared he believed that within the next 25 years the race problem in the United States would be solved if it is to be solved at all. Task For Young People. "In the last few years," the physician said, "I have found that the black man has developed a pure heart and that the white man has developed a clear head. Together, the pure heart and the clear head of the younger generation will solve the race question if the young people of both races will only be reasonable." Dr. Roman brought out several interesting points, time and time again giving his audience something to think about. In his "Eight Word Philosophy of Life" he said, "Know Thyself, Control Thyself, Deny Thyself, Respect Thyself." Dr. Roman spoke the following night in Duluth at St. Marks A. M. E. Church before a large audience. Worth $100,000 And They're Still Giving Him Tips When the diners on the Pioneer Limited of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railroad push their dime and quarter tips to the able and accommodating waiter, they do not know that they are giving their money to a man worth $100,000. The waiter is Wm. Taylor Johnson. For more than 20 years he has had charge of the cafe club car on the train between Chicago and the Twin Cities. It was the two days that he is forced to spend every week in Minneapolis that gave Johnson his first idea for high finance. He bought a 36 acre farm at Anoka, Minn., 20 miles north of Minneapolis. Here he raises hogs, turkeys, chickens, corn, potatoes and never has known a crop failure. He has studied scientific farming with thoroughness and has installed the latest methods on his farm. Dr. Sumner A. Furniss of Indianapolis, Indiana, M. P. Sovereign Grand Commander of the Supreme Council of Scottish Rite Masons, will arrive in the city next week to attend the 41 annual session of the United Supreme Council to be held on May 8 at Union Hall. BORNO ELECTED PRESIDENT OF HAITI REPUBLIC Luis Borno, Well Known and Popular Member of the Bar, Elected President. INAUGURATION DAY IS TO BE EARLY IN MAY Borno's Election Indicates that Haiti Means to Fight For Independence. Port Au Prince, Haiti, Apr. 27.—By unanimous vote of the electors, Luis Borno has been elected President of the Republic of Haiti. Borno is a well known and popular member of the bar, and a member of the cabinet of the outgoing President, Sudre Dartigeunave. He will be inducted into office early next month. Borno was at one time foreign secretary under Dartigeunave, and has been for many years a prominent and striking figure in Haitian affairs. He is training in foreign affairs, and his long practice as an attorney admirably fits him for the position which he is to hold. With Borno will come a more beneficent American occupation, though the United States is not expected to evacuate. The unaminous choice of Borno indicates that the Haitians intend to make a prolonged fight for absolute independence and control of their dominion. Appointment of a minister plenl-potentiary from the United States to the Island is expected at no late date. Several Colored men are known to be persona grata to the new administration, but there is a general disposition on the part of Colored men of wealth and prominence to shun the appointment. The salary is $10,000 and prerequisites. Colored Service Men To Organize Legion Post Here It is the plan of local ex-service men to organize a chapter of the American Legion. All ex-soldiers interested in the plan are asked to meet at the home of S. L. Ransom, 294 St. Albans, Thursday night, May 4, at 8:30 P. M. At this time a local branch of the American Legion will be organized. It is hoped that all ex-service men will attend this meeting and organize a chapter so that the Colored ex-soldiers of St. Paul will be recognized in the Legion affairs of the United States. WOMAN DIES WHILE VISITING FRIENDS Miss Florence Chambers, 29, of Vancouver, B. C. died suddenly last Monday at 1 P. M. at the home of Mrs. Lillian Walker 443 W. Central Ave. Her death came almost instantly as a result of a bursted blood vessel at the base of her brain, physicians announced. She had complained of slight headaches for several days previous to her death. The woman had only been in the city visiting friends for about a week. Funeral services were held from Mrs. T. H. Lyles' undertaking parlors, 150 W. 4th St. Thursday afternoon at 2:30. LOCAL MASONS PLAN FOR BIG MEETING The local order of Masons, under the leadership of Mr. Jose H. Sherwood, are planning a very elaborate series of entertainments for the delegates to the forty-first annual session of the United Supreme Council 33 A. A. S. R. Masons of Northern Masonie Jurisdiction which convened at Union Hall, May 8. Opposing Candidates For Mayor of Saint Paul in Final Election 195 Nelson Favored to Win In Mayoralty Contest ARTHUR E. NELSON. Nelson Favor In May Steel Mills Open in Gary; "Help Wanted" (Associated Negro Press) Gary, Ind., Apr. 27.—"Help Wanted" signs, the first since the war, have appeared at the steel mills in Gary, East Chicago, Hammond and Indiana Harbor. The General American Tank Car plant, East Chicago, the Wanner Malleable Iron Works, Hammond and the American Sheet & Tin Plate and American Bridge plants, Gary, need workers. Three of the Republic mills at Chicago (East) have opened. Thousands of Colored workers are employed in these places. CHURCH WILL HOLD BIG REVIVAL MEETING Dr. Clinton A. Wallace, pastor of the Mount Zion Baptist church of Peoria, Illinois, who recently came there from Ft. Worth, Texas, is coming to St. Paul to conduct revival meetings at Memorial Baptist church beginning May 9. Dr. Wallace was associated with Dr. L. K. Williams, now of Olivet Baptist church of Chicago, and is a splendid pastor evangelist. He will remain in St. Paul until May 19, during which time it is expected, the best revival meeting ever conducted at Memorial Baptist church will be held. A special revival chorus will be conducted by Mrs. Jordan during the revival. Rev. J. W. Harris, pastor of the church, is making great preparations for the rally. BURGLARS ROB DENTIST OF MONEY AND GOLD Burglarls entered the office of Dr. E. S. Weber, 204 Dakota Bldg. and robbed him of about $25 worth of gold and a calendar bank containing $25 in cash last Sunday. The robbery was not discovered until Dr. Weber went to work Monday morning. Police headquarters were notified but no clue could be found leading to the capture of the burglars. It is thought by the police that the office was robbed by someone who had a key because none of the windows or doors had been forced. ```markdown ``` WILLIAM MAHONEY. led to Win loralty Contest Councilmanic Race Promises to Be A Hot One—All Candidates Confident. Tuesday, May 2 is final election day in St. Paul. Candidates have entered on the last leg of their whirlwind campaigns. The majority of them are ready to rest their fates with the voters. From all indications, Arthur E. Nelson, present city attorney, will be the next mayor of St. Paul. It is predicted that he will carry every section of the city by a record vote for mayor. In the primary election March 14, Mr. Nelson polled a record vote of 25,868. The vote given Mr. Nelson was the highest ever recorded for a mayoralty candidate in either a primary or final election in the history of St. Paul. Since then, during the recent campaign, he has added several thousand voters to his list of friends. William Mahoney, opposing candidate for mayor, it is conceded, will receive the hearty support of the labor vote in the city. The councilmanic contest has proven a hot one. The three soldier candidates of the 1920 race, L. R. S. Ferguson, John McDonald and Frank Matson, candidates for re-election, it is generally conceded, will survive at the polls while James M. Clancy and Herman C. Wenzel, labor candidates, who came through the primaries leading the ticket, are scheduled for a repetition of the same act. William J. Peter, one of the candidates for councilman, who was the surprise of the primary election because of the big vote of 17,370 he polled, has done some strenuous campaigning. His election seems certain if things run true to the dope. George Sudheimer, TAILOR RECOVERS SUIT STOLEN FROM HIS SHOP With the arrest of Goldie Dixon last week by Detective James Mitchell, after a fight in a West Seventh street barber shop, police believe they have found a prowler responsible for a number of robberies in the Hill district in the past month. Investigation shows that Dixon was connected with a number of recent robberies. A suit of clothes found in Dixon's possession was identified by R. C. Taylor, proprietor of a tailor店 at 557 St. Anthony avenue, as a part of the loot taken from his place when it was robbed about two weeks ago. Join N. A. A. C. P.1 ATS OKLAHOMADEPUTY SHERIFF REFUSES TO LEAVE STATE Says He Has No Intentions of Obeying Order of Mobbist, In Letter to Editor. DENIES "THUGS" MADE HIM EAT HIS OWN EAR "Id Rather Die First" Declares Victim of Political Outrage in Tulsa. (Associated Negro Press) Oklahoma City, Okla., Apr. 27.— In a letter to Roscoe Dunjee, editor of the Black Dispatch of this city, Deputy Sheriff John H. Smitherman of Tulsa completely defies instructions given him by a mob of "cowards of the night." Less than a month ago Smitherman was taken from his room in the Red Wing Hotel of Tulsa and brutally beaten and mutilated by a mob of masked men because of his political activities. He was warned to leave Tulsa and the state at the time but he has not retreated a step. In his letter to the Black Dispatch, he says: "Permit me to thank you for the fearless stand you have taken in denouncing the cowardly mob who on the night of March 11, abducted and severely whipped me, and afterwards cut off my left ear; giving as their only reason, that I am a Democrat, and had been using my influence to convert others of my race to the Democratic faith. "I am a Democrat by principle, and may I add, that even another such treatment, or worse for that matter, as was tendered me on the night of March 11, could not change my convictions. "Of course you know that I must most naturally feel a spirit of indignation; yet, if my sacrifice, which is tremendous can in any manner serve to the advantage of our people politically or otherwise, then I most graciously accept it as an honor. "In your first news article about the incident the impression was placed that the "Thugs" made me eat my own ear. I must ask the correction of that assertion. They did not make me eat of my own body—I would rather suffer death. "Many of my friends about the state have it, I am informed, that I am contemplating leaving the state in sequence of the threat by the moblist that they would kill me if I did not. You may say for me that it is not true. When I leave the state I will not go in respect of a suggestion or even the request of a mob. I am convinced that Tulsa's best white citizenry does not condone or sanction the actions of these "cowards of the night," in fact they very bitterly condemn the occurrence. "Hoping you the success that must certainly come to the honorable character that you are, I am, Yours very truly, J. H. Smitherman." NEW PASTOR ASSUMES DUTIES AT PILGRIM Rev. L. W. Harris, the newly called pastor of Pilgrim Baptist church, returned to St. Paul and preached a very interesting sermon to the congregation last Sunday. Rev. Harris was due to have arrived in time to preach the Easter Sunday sermon, but on account of the large floods in the Mississippi Valley near his home, Fulton, Missouri, he was unable to reach St. Paul the time he had planned. The members of the church are very glad to have a new pastor, because since the resignation of Rev. B. S. Hodge last summer, they have been without a leader. Under the careful guidance of a new leader, the officers and members are planning many improvements for Pilgrim Baptist church. ```markdown ``` ata ae Ta a aT a a AA a aa aS ae - mn eee Published Weekly by the Bulletin Publishing Co. 408 Court Block St. Paul, Minn.

Member ASSOCLATED NEGRO PRESS “First in Service.” OUR POLITICAL VIEWPOINT Since our advent into politics, we have learned that the Colored voters of St. Paul do not ask as much from men seeking public offices as do the white voters. Colored citizens do not invite can- didates to explain their fitness for office, their plat- forms or their views on matters of particular in- terest as white citizens do; neither do they attend political meetings to any great extent to learn of the “up and down and in and outs“ of the city gov- ernment. It seems that the majority of our Color- ed local leaders, permit us, are personally acquaint- ed with men who deal in public affairs and outside of their own personal interest, they ask little, if anything, in regard to the running of municipal affairs for information for the group they are sup- posed to represent. As citizens and as a group, we must become more interested in how our city is run, where our taxes go, and why and who the men are we entrust with the responsibility of making our city a big- ger, better and cleaner city. As American citizens, we must have a better knowledge of these things. With these facts in mind, only after using our best judgment, do we recommend the candidates mentioned herewith. We feel their records and the things for which they stand justifies their election. For mayor, Arthur E. Nelson, The Bulletin be- lieves is the man for the job. For comptroller Jesse Foot should be re-elected on his public ser- vice record. For councilmen, we have chosen L. R. Ferguson, present Commissioner of Education, because his term in office shows that he stands for square dealing and a higher and more efficient department of education; James M. Clancy, Com- missioner of Parks and Playgrounds, because he has conducted his department with great efficiency and because he has given employment to our men on their merits regardless of color; Frank Matson, Commissioner of Finance, because he is a man capable of managing his department in a way that meets with the public’s approval as has been dem- onstrated in the past two years; John H. McDon- ald, Commissioner of Public Utilities, because he has given Saint Paul many needed improvements and because he believes in dealing square with everybody ; William Peter, a popular candidate, be- cause his record as a citizen shows that he is both a believer in fair play to all and a man capable of shouldering any responsibility entrusted him. Our sixth choice for councilman is Henry J. Crepeau, a worthy candidate and man capable of the position he seeks. John W. Finehout and John W. Boerner candidates for re-election as judges of municipal court are entitled to re-election on their records. John L. Rounds is worthy of election as judge of the concilliation court. W. L. Kelly and John Doyle are worthy of the offices they seek—justices of the peace. These candidates, we believe, have the interest of Saint Paul at heart and as their records prove, are willing to work for Saint Paul and not for any particular group. They have The Bulletin’s hear- ty support, and in recommending them to the Colored voters of Saint Paul, feel certain that you will make no mistake in backing them up on on next Tuesday, May 2, at the polls. Go to the polls and VOTE Tuesday. A CORRECTION last issue, in an advertisement p nterest of the labor candidates, 1 ph read, “Government from the nt rewards the well being of all : ‘overnment for special interests dc ear the wrong impression may hg d, we wish to correct the stateme s to the labor candidates. It shor sovernment from the Human V; the well being of all the citizens. r special interests does not.” In our last issue, in an advertisement published in the interest of the labor candidates, the first paragraph read, “Government from the Urban Viewpoint rewards the well being of all the citi- zens. Government for special interests does not.” For fear the wrong impression may have been conveyed, we wish to correct the statement, with apologies to the labor candidates. It should have read, “Government from the Human Viewpoint regards the well being of all the citizens. Govern- ment for special interests does not.” If it is true that Colored men are being put out of their jobs in Minneapolis because they are not a member of ex-soldiers’ organizations, it is indeed an unfortunate circumstance. However. this fact ‘we have not been able to ascertain as yet, but we do know that our men are being released by a number of employers and that white men are re- pacing, them. These circumstances are being it about chiefly through th: efforts of an organization designed to relieve the “unemploy- ment situation” among ex-service men, we are informed. It occurs to us that it is taking some ex-service men rather a long time to get “situated.” Think right; act right; it is what we think and thers aay of you, matters lite, but whst you do Say of you, you and say matters much. CONTEMPORARIES THE COLORED “COLOR” LINE ae eye eee eee a Leslie's Weekly published an article on color lin within the American Negro racial group, and the articl was extensively quoted by the Literary Digest. The au thor of the article seems to be a colored man, but it i evident that the interest of these two papers was awaken ed by two wrong things: 1—A falsehood. 2—A half-truth which is more dangerous than a falsehood for it is speci ous and harder to show up. The falsehood is; That th Negro draws more rigid lines within his own race thai the white race draws against the Negro (noting the com parison), The half-truth is that the American Negro doe not boast about his “features” and physical characteris ties, and that therefore as the author falsely deduces, he has no race or group pride. We do not need to prove to American Negroes tha no such rigid color lines are drawn within the group a are drawn against the group by the Anglo-Saxon. The col or mania within the group 1s mostly individual finicialnes: and local peculiarity due to historical conditions. Bu this has been passing out even in New Orleans and Charle ston (S. C.) where a three cornered race problem came ‘nearest to developing. To say that any considerable ‘group of Negro Americans are more interested in color than are white people, is not only a false statement, but it tends to offer the white race an excuse for its own terri- ble color-mania against the whole Colored group. The “seven” colors which thé author of the article mentions, are not only not “distinet” lines among Color. ed people, but they are just merely the creation of the vaudeville stage, the pool room and the gay-hearted, and a splendid exhibition of the incessant Negro humor. The old songs about the “yaller gal” were perfectly natural; mulattoes are still in the minority but were formerly mueh rarer than they are now, and any rare feature in any race or group is the object of special sentiment and attention, just as the blondes are among the whites. But, if the white race were all blonde, with just a few dark haired people scattered in it, most of the novels and news- paper lies would then be written about the “raven-haired” girls. We have heard songs about the “black girl” and these songs would have been more numerous if the black gals had been relatively more scarce. But the greatest mistake of all is that of the half- truth, for which a white person, as an outsider, might be excused, but which any intelligent American Negro can easily understand. The American Negro is accused of being without group pride. This illusion is derived from the fact that he is not a bigot about his color and features, And for good reason he is not; becanse he has all the color and features within his group. Physically the Col- ored American is the most cosmopolitan group of humans in the world. If he is to boast of his features, of which one must he boast? How can a group with every color known to nature, say “I am proud of my color?” Of which “color?” How can a group of people with every shape of hair follicle and every texture of hair from prac- tically round and straight Mongolian to afmost flat and kinky African, boast about “our kind” of hair? Which kind? The American Negro cannot boast for any parti- eular shape of nose or arch of foot, nor for blue eyes or brown eyes or black eyes. He has all of them, as a sroup. In a given American city, if the Negro is vo brag on his physical features, each Negro will have to “brag on himself.” In Africa when a child was born with a nose too nearly aquiline, its parents have been known to bind down its nose and flatten it. But fn that whole tribe a sharp or high nose was an abnormality, a deformity. How can the American Negro group, which has every color, every feature, and every characteristic, feel the normality of or have a boastful pride in merely ONE? Can the rainbow brag about “Its color,” or a subtropical flower bed get stuck up on its singular and peculiar tint? —But to say that this many featured and motlet-colored croup of people cannot unite on the “superiority” of any one physical feature, is not to prove that they cannot or have not a pride of the group. The American Negro can- not shout for black merely. A shout for any one color would be disintegrating, not a unifying, shout. The tie must be other than mere physical features. And a gath- ering together of Colored Americans for any common pur- pose, in New York, Chicago, in Atlanta, or in New Or- leans, is today the most variegated thing on earth. The ery of color (usually the ery of black, which predominates) has several times been raised in this group, but it has never yet met with any general response for the reason that it is both inconsistent and unhelpful. ‘To say that the Negro is more color-prejudiced than the whites, excuses those of the white race who would oppose color. And to say that the American Negro lacks race pride is to support those who have tried to discredit the group by claiming that altho no white man wants to be a Negro, every Negro wants to be a white man. Ne- sroes of all colors and features have disputed this; Doug- lass, Washington, Moton, Dubois, and Garvey. Christianity is strange. It bids us to recognize our- selves as vile, even abominable, and even bids our desire fo be like God, Without such a counterpoise this dignity would make him terribly abject. Christ came into the world alone, not in the garden as Adam did, who bathed himself in grandeur and was lost to himself through disobedience, but in a stable where He saved himself through agony and tears. Those or us who, follow Him through life will live beyond the grave. We seek Him for eternal life. We follow him for guidance. We praise Him for His kindness and love. We have hope in His salvation. ‘The notion that in this day and generation all the prizes go to the influential and wealthy, or to the social elect is absurd. The prizes go to the ones working the harder for them. The young man who has educated him- self at high school by getting up at 2:00 a. m. and work- ing is going to succeed. But the boy who ‘s lazy and looks to his parents to pay his way is the one who hates to study and would rather be out playing ball than pre- pare himself for life’s work. No matter how poor your parents, study © way out to prepare yourselves for the future. It will pay in the end, Knowledge of God without that man’s misery causes pride, The knowledge of man’s misery without that of God's causes despair. The knowledge of Jesus Crist con- stitute the middle course, because in him we find both God and our misery.

Great interest is attached to the membership drive of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, now nearing its close throughout the country. The vigorous fight waged by the National organization to secure the passage of the Dyer-Anti-Lynching bill has drawn to it many new adherents, not only from among Colored people, but from other races as well. Many of these have been surprised at the disclosures made and proven by the Association. In Minneapolis, the local branch has carried on with unceasing vigor. In one way or another almost every man and woman has been reached and urged to join the forces this year. In churches, clubs and pool halls, the appeal has gone forth in the forms of placards, and the individual solicitors have gone into the homes. That the people of Minneapolis are awake to the importance of the program the Association is attempting, is evidenced by the generous hearing the local branch is receiving from all classes of people. Several of the lodges have enrolled as groupe members, giving not only financial support, but a greater effectiveness to the work. Reports covering the results of the drive in Minneapolis will be made at the Mass Meeting to be held at St. Peter A. M. E. church, Wednesday night, May 3. A number of workers will be on duty that night to register those who have not joined, but still wish to do so. A program of short speeches, interspersed with music and song, and arranged by Dr. W. E. Burton, will be one feature of the evening. A cordial invitation is extended to every citizen to be present. The program begins at 8:00 P. M. Somebody Wuz Sayin' that— Donald Brown should move to St. Paul because it would be cheaper than paying telephone bills.

(Continued from page 1) prominent St. Paul lawyer and Henry Devlin, former fire chief, have also done some strenuous campaigning. They are candidates on the Voters Carry-On-Club's ticket. In the race for comptroller, Jesse Foot, candidate for re-election, has been strongly opposed by the labor candidate, William F. Scott. However, it is believed Foot's public service record insures his election. The contest for municipal judge between John W. Finehout, John W. Boerner versus R. F. Schroeder and L. B. Schwartz seems to favor the two former candidates up for re-election. An unofficial count of the registration for the city election on May 2 totals 64,874 lawful electors who have qualified to take part. Vote next Tuesday! PAID ADVERTISEMENT—Prepared by O.

UPTOWNS DROP PRACTICE GAME TO BUFFALOES Before the largest crowd seen on the Minneapolis parade grounds this season, the St. Paul Uptowns met the Mill City Buffaloes in an exhibition game held Sunday April 23. Both teams displayed good hitting ability, and with a little more fielding practice will burn up the Northwest. St. Paul outhit the Minneapolis boys through out the game, but due to the strong wind which swept the field were unable to get the full benefit from their long hits. Joe Davis pitched a good brand of ball for Minneapolis, while Earl Roach and Davis handled the situation for the St. Paul team. The score ended 9 to 7 in favor of Minneapolis.
