DEBATE HELD AT C. M. E. CHURCH WAS INTERESTING
"It was a shame to take the money," said Major Jones and Clarence Lindsey, when on last Friday evening the judges rendered their decision in favor of the negative. It came about in the following manner: W. J. Jones, manager of the Palace Tailoring Co. and A. R. Smith, managing editor of the Phoenix Tribune, were arrayed against Clarence Lindsey and Major Jones in a debate, Smith and Jones presenting the affirmative, and Lindsey and Major Jones upholding the negative. The subject for debate was: "Resolved. That Opportunities for the Colored People in Arizona are Better Than in Any Other State in the Union."
Major Jones and Clarence Lindsey selected the state of Mississippi and proved to the satisfaction of the judges, Prof. P. Landry, Attorney William E. Watkins and Richard D. Simpson, that Mississippi offered better opportunities to the colored people than Arizona. W. J. Jones and A. R. Smith tried their best to show that the opportunities for the colored people in Arizona are far superior to those offered by Mississippi or any other state, but to no avail.
In rendering their decision, the judges claimed that not a single point was made by the affirmative, Smith and Jones, to support their contention that the opportunities for the colored people in Arizona were better than in any other state in the Union. While presenting the negative side of the debate, Lindsey and Jones were roundly applauded and won the decision of the audience as well as that of the judges.
The debate was held at the C. M. E. church, Seventh street and Jefferson, and the edifice was filled to overflowing with people who came to hear the arguments. Preceding the main event, a short program was rendered, to the delight of all. Mrs. J. F. Hudspeth gave a humorous recital, telling of the qualities of the debaters, and she received loud applause. Mr. J. D. Carter brought down the house with one of his famous orations. Mr. Chas. Fish, Mrs. Clarence Hamilton and others rendered seelctions that were highly entertaining and all received much applause.
For the benefit of those who failed to attend, and to let them know what they missed, we publish herewith the losing argument presented by A. R. Smith of the affirmative, and which the judges, Attorney William E. Watkins, Prof. P. Landry and Richard D. Simpson decided was of no importance whatever in supporting the claim that opportunities for the colored people in Arizona are better than in any other state in the Union. The article follows:
"Honorable Judges, Ladies and Gentlemen: Before I begin my argument in support of the affirmative side of this debate, permit me to relate a little story which will show you, as nothing else can, the insecure foundation upon which our opponents are attempting to build their structure.
"The story is told of an old lawyer whose son was about to enter upon the practice of law and so came to his father for advice. The old man counseled his son thus: "My son, when the law is against you, impress upon the jury the importance of doing justice without regard to law. When justice is against you, sound it into the ears of the jury that the law must be obeyed without regard to justice." "But father,' broke in the boy, 'what shall I do when both law and justice are against me?"
"Oh, my son,' was the reply, 'in that case, just talk around it!"
"So, honorable judges, in this case, both law and justice are against our opponents and they are trying to talk around the subject.
"We, the affirmative, claim that opportunities for the colored people in Arizona are better than in any other state in the Union.

Chicago, Ill., Feb. 3.—The Farmer-Labor party, a new party, has three members in the legislature of the state of Washington. One of these is J. H. Ryan, a colored man who was elected from the 38th district; Ryan's opponent was a white woman, who waged a bitter campaign against him because of color. She went up and down the district telling the voters that no self-respecting white person would vote for a Negro in preference to a white woman. This evidently proved distasteful to the voters for Ryan won by a large majority.
The returns, as taken from the official records show that the colored people did not elect Ryan as there were only about 100 in his district, and most of them voted for the republican party.
Ryan is a newspaper man, who has taken a keen interest in the legislative affairs of the state, having attended every session of the legislature for several years.
One of the leading agencies in the election of Ryan was The New Majority, the most influential and widely circulated Labor paper in America.
for their labor. Every day the sun shines in Arizona. We have only two seasons, spring and summer, and seldom if ever is one forced to remain indoors, on account of inclement weather. Not another state in the Union can successfully lay claim to similar climatic conditions.
"Second: Because it's a privilege to live in Arizona, and that privilege carries with it an opportunity to be religious in the truest sense of the word. The Apostle James says: 'True religion and undefiled before God is this, to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction and to keep himself unspotted from the world.' The sick and afflicted come here in large numbers, greater by far than in any other state in the Union, and we have an excellent opportunity to show our Christianity by administering to them.
"Third: Because Arizona, the Baby State, last to be admitted to statehood, is an entirely new field, presenting unlimited opportunities that need only to be developed. Here, we have an opportunity to initiate things and show originality, prove our worth as it were."
"William Shakespeare defined opportunity when he penned these immortal lines: 'There is a tide in the affairs of men, which taken at the flood, leads on to fortune.' The opportunity is in the man, and unless he be prepared to take the tide when it reaches the flood, his chances for success are nil.
"The great trouble with most people is, they never go on a voyage of discovery in their own natures. They are constantly looking for outside help, outside power, when, as a matter of fact, the only motor power they can ever get hold of is right inside of them.
"Arizona is the state that will bring out the best there is in you. True, we may encounter difficulties, but it is the difficult things in life that develop our mental and moral muscle, that build courage and stamina."
"Again I say, the secret of your future is all inside of you. Of course, you cannot uncoil in your nature what was not coiled up there, you cannot evolve that which was not first involved, but much depends on the kind of effort you put in the evolving process. Right here, I want to say with all the force I can command, that preparedness is the essential thing for success in any line and in any place. If unprepared, you cannot grasp opportunity when it comes. To every man, each opportunity is worth exactly what he is prepared to make of it.
"It does not matter what you intend to do in life, whether you are to be a shoemaker, legislator, teacher, a business man or a farmer, the man
business man or a farmer, the man that God folded up in you should be unfolded. Education is one of the secret keys that unlocks the door to opportunity. Its a process of unfolding. Having decided what you desire to be in life and after backing up that desire with a thorough knowledge of

MISSOURI ROBBERS PAINT FACES BROWN AND STAGE HOLD-UP
(Special to The Tribune)
St. Louis, Mo., Feb. 3.—A new wrinkle in criminology was uncovered Saturday night, January 8, when two supposed "Brown Skin" Negroes held up the Almack dance hall at Pine and Jefferson avenue. According to the police report the men went to the hall, which is on the second floor, and ordered everyone to hold up their hands. One man gathered about $45 while the other held the gun.
Joe Davis, the proprietor, states that the men came up the stairs like any other Negroes who were going to the hall, that the first one drew a gun and told him to hold up his hands, while the other grabbed about $68, the night's receipts, and escaped. When the man with the gun started down the stairs, Davis says he reached for his gun and began shooting. The first shot hit the robber in the shoulder, who yelled, "O, Lord! Don't kill me." Davis says he kept on shooting and out of five shots he hit the man three times. The police report mentions only two, the other being a wound on the right ear and the side of the head. The wounded robber ran on Jefferson and west on Lawton, pursued by Davis and Policemen Bauer and Dundon, to Beaumont, where he was captured.
So deceptive was his makeup that the policemen sent him to Hospital No.2, for colored, where Dr. Winson, on examination, found that the robber's "brown skin" was only a greased paint of the kind used, by the theatrical performers and its wearer was a white man. He gave his name as Frank Weber of 1702 Stoddard street.
While we have not had much reason to love Mr. Wilson aside from our duty to love all men regardless of who or what they may be, let us all tender him our best wishes for a long life, much love and abounding prosperity upon the land which his Lord hath given unto him.
the thing you wish to master, Arizona presents the best opportunity for you to reach your goal.
"Honorable judges, we ask that you also consider the fact that there in Arizona, you are not only permitted to breathe pure air that is healthful and invigorating, but you may take a deep breath of free air. Freedom, ah. the magical power of the word. In this state," freedom has a real meaning. Aside from being free to go and come as all other citizens, you have an opportunity to fill any position for which you are fitted by training, experience and character.
"No man who is a citizen is denied the right to full enjoyment of the privileges of citizenship in Arizona. I challenge my opponents to deny this fact. I defy them to state a single instance where a colored man in Arizona has, been held back, simply on account of his race or color. State an instance if they dare, and I'll prove by a statement of facts that it was the man's lack of intellectual or moral fitness that held him back and not his color.
"Time will not permit me to tell of the wonderful opportunities that lie in the thousands of acres of fertile farm lands under irrigation from the great Roosevelt dam, that are beckoning to the skilled farmers of our race. The mighty San Carlos project, which by the election of a republican senator in the person of the Honorable Ralph Cameron is now assured, will mean an even greater, more fertile area of farming lands than we now have. Then picture, if you will, the large herds of fine, dairy cattle, hogs, poultry, great fields of alfalfa, wonderful truck gardens that produce vegetables the year round; numerous orange groves, citrus fruits, the rich beds of copper, silver and gold for which Arizona is noted. We do not have to go outside of this state for anything. We need only to let down our buckets where we are."
The above argument was presented by the losing side, and you may imagine what the winners presented. The next debate will be held on February 11th at the A. M. E. church. Don't fail to come. You will miss it if you miss it.
WEST AFRICA NOW SEEKS HOME RULE SAY LATE REPORTS
WEST AFRICA NOW SEEKS HOME RULE SAY LATE REPORTS
(By The Associated Negro Press.)
London, England, Feb. 3.—British West Africa is the latest country to seek home rule. A mission has arrived to urge a number of reforms in the administration of the four West African colonies and protectorates, Sierra Leone, the Gold Coast, Nigeria and the Gambia, says the London Times.
The mission seeks the creation of a legislative council which will be composed of members chosen half by the crown and half elected by the people and for a house of assembly which would have complete control of the revenue and expenditure. The judicial system, in particular of Nigeria, is criticized by the mission, which states that "it is the practice to appoint Europeans who have not received any legal training and who are not competent to exercise judicial functions."
Among other suggested reforms they seek the establishment of a West African university; the removal of the color bar in the medical service and the introduction of immigration laws to prevent the influx of undesirable ellens.
SOME DEBATE
Following is a poem composed by Mrs. J. F. Hudspeth, 1342 East Jeffer's son street, and which she recited at the C. M. E. church on the evening of the great debate. The poem follows:
Well, dey say
There's going to be a debate.
And I sho had to hurry
To keep from being late.
Well, I'm here
And so is you.
So we all can see
What dese speakers going to do.
And I wuz a hurrin'
And er comin' along
Jest er talking to myself
And er singin' a little song;
And I never thought a thing
Till I got to the door.
Right dar—I had to pay
Fer to see dis show.
Who ever heard
Of such a thing before,
Folks just er paying.
Fer to get in the door;
And everybody's here
And dat you'll see.
But chile—I sho thought
Dis thing was free.
All dis talk
About de Arizona state
Has stirred up a fuss,
And caused this debate;
Mississippi, Texas,
West Virginia—and Arkansas, too,
And dese hot deserts
Fer to season the stew.
I sho aint in favor
Of dis desert land,
I sides wid de negative,
Dere's where I stand;
If I wuz a judge,
De negative would win,
Caze livin' in Arizona
Has caused me to sin.
But Lindsey and Jones
And Smith and Jones,
When it comes to speakin,
Dey is some High Tones;
Dis state may be great,
But it sho is late;
So argue it out, boys,
Dis sho is some debate.
DRASTIC RULING BY FLORIDA COURT
(Special to the Tribune)
Miami, Fla., Feb. 3.—Neither of two rival Negro Masonic lodges of Florida is entitled to use the Masonic square or compass as emblems, Justice George M. Okell ruled here today, deciding a suit brought by one of the lodges to prevent the other from using the emblems.
RACE PREJUDICE VERY PRONOUNCED IN CALIFORNIA
(By The Associated Negro Press.)
Palo Alto, Calif., Feb. 3.—Southerners who have migrated to California have brought their racial prejudices with them, and the effect is being felt strongly here. Colored citizens of this city are much concerned because the Palo Alto chamber of commerce directors recently advocated a segregated district for the Oriental and Colored people of the city.
The colored people have drawn up a set of resolutions which have been presented to the chamber of commerce and which say among other things: "Agitation for such an ordinance will create race prejudice and cause race friction, and engender strife and discord where before was peace and harmony. We are amazed that any intelligent citizen would lend himself or herself to the advocacy of such an ordinance in the face of the decision of the supreme court of the United States in the case of Buchanan vs. Warley."
In discussing the situation, Henry Dodson, president of the Colored Citizens' club, stated that out of 80 or more colored people in this city, not one of them has been idle; in fact every man and woman of them is a worker. He further announces that 10 of their number possess property here aggregating $100,000 in value, and he points to the fact that none of this property is mortgaged. He said that one of their number is a local bank director.
Dodson thinks that the Colored people here have been farsighted in their dealings with the white people in avoiding race animosity. He cites an instance where the Colored people had a chance to buy a religious meeting house which was valued at $7000 but could be bought for the sum of $3000. Dodson states that because the church building was in a white neighborhood, their society would not consider buying the place even at the reduced figure. Dodson believes that his people are willing at all times to avoid any race friction, but insists that by creating a segregation district for the colored residents, bad feeling is bound to exist between the blacks and whites.
CHARGE OF PEONAGE PLACED AGAINST GEORGIA FARMER
CHARGE OF PEONAGE PLACED AGAINST GEORGIA FARMER
(By The Associated Negro Press.)
McDonough, Ga., Feb. 3.—Two white farmers and a Negro employee have been held to the federal grand jury on a charge of peonage here in connection with the beating of a Colored man and the death of his wife.
It is charged that the defendants, together with three other men, administered a whipping to Jerry Navin, Colored, and then attacked the home of Navin's brother. It is charged that the house was peppered with bullets and that a shot killed Navin's wife. Navin is also said to be in the Jonesboro jail, charged by these men with crime.
The federal charges arose over the alleged efforts of Morris, with whom Navin had contracted to make a crop on halves in 1920, to keep the Negro in a state of bondage by refusing to permit him to leave the farm without paying the sum of $115.00.
LITERARY SOCIETY IS NOW ORGANIZED
The Phoenix Literary and Debating Society was formally organized Monday night at the A. M. E. church. Hon. William E. Watkins was chosen president, Clarence Lindsey, vice president; Major Jones, secretary, and G. S. Rodgers, treasurer. The next program for the society will be rendered Friday night. February 11th, at the A. M. E. church, corner Second street and Jefferson, at which time the following subject will be debated: "Should the Negro Emigrate to Mex-
KLU KLUX KLAN GETTING BUSY IN NORTH CAROLINA
(By The Associated Negro Press.)
Greensboro, N. Car., Feb. 3.—The Ku Klux Klan made its first appearance in Durham when notice was sent the Lincoln cafe, operated by Greeks for Negroes, advising them to "take heed to this warning and beware." The warning stated that white and black men were meeting loose Negro women at the cafe for the purpose of taking automobile rides and declaring that fraternizing between "low" whites and Negro women and traffic between Negro men and women must cease.
The letter of warning sent the Lincoln cafe, a copy of which was supplied the press through the mail, follows:
"To the Proprietor Lincoln Cafe, Mangum Street, Durham, N. Car.
"Dear Sir—There are forces for good and evil in Durham—you are a force for evil.
"Be advised that Anglo-Saxons founded this country—wrote the declaration of independence and constitution of the United States, and then invited people of all nations to come in and enjoy life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. However, these founders expected that all people would become Americans and respect our constitution, laws and customs.
"It is not our custom to mix up with the Negroes on social equality. You are fraternizing with the Negroes and allowing a low element of whites to meet Nigger women in your place, and they are known to go out in automobiles together. The best white and black people in Durham resent this, and it must stop.
"We are a friend of the good Negroes as well as whites, but the bootleggers and the lawless element of both had better watch their step.
"You and your friends, therefore, take heed to this warning and beware!
"Yours for law, order and decency, in Durham and the nation."
MEMBERS OF MOB CANNOT BE FOUND
MEMBERS OF MOB CANNOT BE FOUND
(By The Associated Negro Press.)
Warrenton, N. C., Feb. 3.—All efforts to apprehend members of the mob which broke into the jail, removed two Negroes held there after an armed clash with whites over 100 worth of apples, and shot them to death, were set aside today in the anxiety of authorities to forestall a recurrence of violence. The murderers, therefore, will never be brought to justice.
Seven of the nine Negroes left in the jail by the mob were today hurried to Raleigh for safe keeping, and this afternoon five additional arrests were made and the prisoners also rushed to Raleigh. Four other Negroes for whom warrants are out have escaped.
The Warrenton Home Guard, ordered out by Governor Morrison last night, was under arms all day, and the Henderson Home Guard also stood in readiness to respond to any call. However, tonight no further outbreak was regarded as probable. The coroner's jury held an inquest and quickly returned a verdict of "death at the hands of unknown persons." All the witnesses testified to their inability to identify any members of the mob.
The Millenium does not begin on the Fourth of March. President-elect Harding simply takes the oath to serve all the people on that day.
lco?" The affirmative will be presented by G. T. Tinsley and C. C. Dotson; the negative will be upheld by Richard D. Simpson and J. D. Carter. Other vocal and instrumental numbers will also be rendered and this promises to be a worth while entertainment. All Phoenix should turn out on this occasion, for some of the best talent in the city will appear on the program. Remember the date, February 11th, and cancel all other engagements.
SOUTH AMERICA IS LOGICAL COUNTRY FOR BLACK PEOPLE
Rio De Janiero, Brazil, S. A., Feb. 3.—The Brazilian government has put the official stamp of its approval on the plans of the Brazilian-American Colonization Syndicate. It has been officially determined that the first colony of American colonists shall be set up in the state of Matto Grosso within a few miles of Cuyaba, the capital of the state.
This situation is in the very center of one of the richest sections in the whole Brazilian Republic. The present value of the land is $3.25 an acre. Under the intensive farming system employed among the greater number of American farmers, in and out of the cotton district, this value, in a short time, should literally jump ten times this value. Virgin soil, an equitable climate and the kindly supervisory interest of the national Brazilian government combine to make this chance a golden one in every particular.
Particular attention has been given to the housing problems that will naturally arise in the colony for solution. Ample provisions have been provided by the national government to meet the demands in this connection. When a settler has paid his $800.00 for his 100 hectares (247 acres), a three-room house will be built for him at a cost of $250.00 which must be paid in advance. This plan insures a high grade of settlers for the colony and makes it an easy matter to maintain a high degree of community co-operation. The first group of settlers will leave New York City on the 21st of next June.
No "color line," a climate nt for the gods, a soil rich as gold in its productive power, and a government strong in its dispensations of the law, yet kindly in its official supervision of the people's interests, all go to make Brazil a most desirable "garden spot" for all and any who want to breathe the pure social and industrial air of a true Democracy. "This is the place I have long desired to know about," shouted an enthusiastic prospective colonist not long since. "Here is where I throw my hat in the ring of a new life and proceed to live for God and humanity." Enthusiasm has even gripped the natives since the government has given its approval to the plan of the Brazilian-American Syndicate. Old residents of Rio Janiero declare that the American Negro is the only kind of emigrant to encourage to come into the country. Besides ties of blood they possess the tropical nature in a degree that will make them easily assimiable and therefore easily nationalized. In any event Brazilians are very enthusiastic over the prospects of having a goodly number of American Negro colonists come into the country at this time as settlers. If appearances go for anything it truly looks good for the new colonists.
CHAS. E. HEATH PASSES TO REWARD
CHAS. E. HEATH PASSES TO REWARD
Charles E. Heath, well known in business, civic, fraternal and musical circles here, died suddenly at his home on Indianola avenue last week, a victim of heart trouble following a second paralytic stroke.
Born in Boston, Mr. Heath came to Phoenix about ten years ago from Riverside, Calif. He opened a photographic studio soon after his arrival here and has since been engaged in that profession. He held many medals and certificates for the excellence of his work. His studio was located at First avenue and Adams street.
He was a member of the Masonic order, of the Shrine, of the Knights of Pythias, of the Elks and of the Modern Woodmen. Mr. Heath also was prominent in local musical circles, being a singer of note. He was also a member of several civic organizations.
He leaves to mourn his loss, the wife, one son, David, and a brother in Boston.

MASONIC PRINCIPLES
Freemasonry demands of its followers but two attributes—
a belief in a supreme being and character. Beyond that, nothing
specific is asked. But how much is involved in these two attri-
butes properly considered.
Too often, we fear, the petitioner for the mysteries realizes
but little of the seriousness of the demands upon him, few though
they may appear in number. And too often, also, we fear, the
investigating committee lacks similarly a genuine conception of
the attributes which the petitioner should possess.
Theoretically, Freemasonry is doing more to realize the
great principle of brotherhood and the solidarity of mankind
than any other institution in the world, but even at that, Free-
masonry is doing relatively little as compared with the needs of
the world at the present time.
There is more than passing justification in the thought that
had Freemasonry and its principles been more completely under-
stood in Europe in high quarters, there would have been no Euro-
pean war. But that is in the past. The problem of the present
is for Freemasonry to so develop and extend its principles as to
render it certain that there shall be no other similar world catas-
trophe.
That extension of Masonic principles is aided in part by the
number of men admitted within the precincts of Freemasonry is
true, but it will be helped still farther by a more defiinife educa-
tion of those who join ,the order, in the fundamentals which
underlie the ritualistic expressions of the initiation and cere-
monies.
They must be taught that these are not merely a form, but
that they are real, live principles which not only should be fol-
lowed, but which will do more, when followed, to bring about
peace and prosperity in the world than any other one factor.
Freemasonry is by no means to be regarded as a substitute
for religion. It is indeed religious, but not a religion. It main-
tains no missions; admission within its precincts must come from
voluntary petition, uninfluenced by unworthy motives. It watches
over the women and the children of its members, but it has no
definite place for them in its organization. It bears no message
of hope to the human derelict and it reaches the vast majority of
the human race only by indirect influence.
How important it is, therefore, that every member of the
order should so conduct himself that by no act of his he may
cause those who have admitted him to the order, to regret the
confidence reposed in him. ¢
How important it is, too, that he shall so conduct himseif
that the outer world shall realize that within the ranks of the
order are chosen men—men whose example may well be followed
by those who may not have gained access to that society, or band
of brothers among whom no contention should ever exist, but
that noble contention or rather emulation of who can best work
and agree—each member following his own path in life with the
fullest regard for the rights and the feelings of others.—Ex.
I cannot see why people wonder about the “Negro’s interest”
in the Japanese question. The “color problem” is the milk in
this particular question and therefore it becomes absorbingly
interesting to the Negroes in the United States where this
“problem” is continually flaunted in his face. I am in agreement
that Negroes have a strongly sentimental leaning toward the
Japanese. I also believe that the American's attitude toward
the “inferior” peoples has much to do with the prevalence of
this sentiment among the Negroes in this country. Kicking a
fellow in his ribs is not a sensible way by which one can hope
te hold a high place in his esteem,
We have a great deal of money invested in church property.
This looks like a good investment. We must of necessity take
right good care that the souls of the people shall be kept clean
and whole. Life, however, is a relentless master. It will not be
denied. Its exactions and necessities are inexorable. And theif,
besides, there is a growing belief that the better we care for the
life the larger chance we have of making secure the well-being of
the soul. However, this may be, wouldn't it be a good thing
for the race if we began to put some of our money into factories
and the general lines of substantial business enterprises?

Fe eee eee eres tt
| in the sewing room of my own home
and what I. have experienced: The
advice 1 am now giving will be help:
ful to.those who do not know how ta
sew, These few notes wM be very
helpful to all.
1. Be not afraid to seek instruc-
tion as this will save doing work over.
2. Never cut so that your goods are
wasted. Always be economical.
3 Never wrinkel your work. Keep
it smooth at all times for too much
pressing soon wears it out.
| 4. Pin your pattern to goods so it
will not slip. Always let them be held
in place. ‘
5. Never remove goods from pat
tern until they have been notched and
ready io be basted at that moment.
6. When sewing silk, chiffon, vel
vet, very little pressing is needed.
7. When sewing woolen, cotton,
linen, very little pressing is essential.
My motto is: Careful observers
make neat dressmakers.
sionary ladies and the B. Y. P. U.
have been doing excellent work.

To Our Readers
No person is in a better position to know the attitude of the business concerns of a community than the one who solicits the advertisements and comes in personal contact with the heads of the business concern. When the advertisement of a business firm is carried in the Tribune, it not only serves as an announcement of the special prices or the line of goods handled by that concern, but it is a Direct Invitation to members of the race to patronize the business place; further, it is assurance of fair and courteous treatment.

CONTRACTS
By Henry C. Lewis
Written contracts not under seal
are known as "Simple." Those under
seal are termed "Specilities."
(a) An express contract is one into which the parties have entered definitely and designedly, either orally or written, agreeing specifically as to the undertaking and what share each shall have and do therein. All written contracts, whether Specilities or Simple, are express contracts.
(b) An implied contract is one where the parties have entered into no express agreement or understanding, but where their respective conduct warrants the conclusion that their intention then was to contract with one another. In an implied contract, the intention of the parties is not expressed, but their acts—an agreement in fact—creates an obligation implied by the law.
For instance, goods ordered by "X" are by mistake delivered to "Y," who uses them. "YS" receiving and use of them raises an implied promise to pay for them. If he refuses to do so voluntary, the law will enforce payment. A person who boards a street car carrying passengers, his entry upon the conveyance and his acceptance of the services to carry him is an implied promise to pay for his ride.
Express and implied contracts cannot rise out of the same transaction.
(c) Quasi contracts, strictly speaking, are not contracts but are claims arising independently of any agreement and which the law recognizes as just and which it will enforce accord-

LETTER OF CONDOLENCE
Phoenix, Ariz., Jan. 21, 1921.
Dear Daughter Howard—How can we attempt to comfort you in the bitter affliction which has befallen you? Words are but empty things at best, and we can feel far more than we can say.
You mother was to you the highest treasure and greatest joy of life. She is gone, but you may yet hope to see her again, where sorrow and parting are no more. Trust in God, dear daughter, and hard though it may seem, remember, that: "He doeth all things well."
The recollection of her who so lately departed, must be full of painful regret, and so we will not dwell on this dark side of the picture, but rather look to its brighter aspect in the hope that she has gone to a happier sphere and that your loss is heaven's gain.
That a higher than human power may console and support you under this heavy stroke, are the earnest prayers of Fair Ladies Tabernacle No. 6.

LOSE THOUSANDS IN GET RICH QUICK IDEA
LOSE THOUSANDS IN GET RICH QUICK IDEA
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Louisville, Ky., Feb. 3.—Dreams of becoming millionaires over night which have been indulged in by a large number of Louisvillians, were rudely interrupted this week when a thriving lottery clique were arrested here.
It was admitted by the promoters, two of whom were Ed. Brown and August Kammerer, that 50,000 patrons had been playing and that the receipts were about $1,000.00 per week. It is said the lottery wheel was hidden in the woods." The police believe that thousands of Negroes, lured by "getting-rick-quick" possibilities, have squandered their money in the last year by playing three separate lotteries operated by white men in Louisville, Jeffersonville and New Albany.

FILIPINOS WANT AMERICA TO GIVE INDEPENDENCE
FILIPINOS WANT AMERICA TO GIVE INDEPENDENCE
Maximo M. Kalaw Declares U. S Cannot Consistently Refuse "Self-Determination."

"When they are educated enough." Thus run the answers of many Americans pressed with the question as to when the Filipinos should be granted their independence. Now, "ability," "capacity" and "sufficient education"
—What do they mean in black
Maximo M. Kalaw. mean in black and white?
Senator Shogun may think no people is capable of self-government that does not establish the judicial recall, or that has no Billy Sunday. John Smith of Somerville may think no people is capable of self-government that does not vote his democratic ticket, or go to church on Sundays.
"Capacity for self-government" is as broad and elastic as the world, and if that should be the criterion for the granting of Philippine independence, America might as well say to the Filipinos, "I will give you independence when it please me to do so."
Fortunately, the American promise to the Philippines is not based on such obscure and abstract conditions. It is based on a definite seizable thing. When America, through her Congress, officially told the Filipino people that they would be granted their independence as soon as they could establish a stable government, no abstract or obscure condition was meant. Stable government, according to American usage, means a certain, definite thing. The United States promised the Cubans the same thing, that "when they have established a stable government, then American troops would be withdrawn." As soon as the Cuban people elected a government suited to themselves, capable of maintaining order and fulfilling all international obligations, there was a stable government in Cuba, and American troops were withdrawn.
When Congress passed the Jones law, it simply borrowed the phrase "stable government" from the Cuban history and applied it to the Philippines. The history of Philippine legislation shows that in black and white, With full knowledge of what it meant, the Filipino people accepted the Jones law and immediately began setting up the stable government required by Congress as a pre-requisite to independence. The stable government is now a fact. It is indeed more than that; it is an undisputed fact.
The official representative of the United States in the Philippine Islands, the Governor General, reported to the American Congress and the administration that "the Filipino people have established the stable government demanded by Congress as a pre-requisite for the granting of independence—namely, a government elected by the suffrage of the people, which is supported by the people, which is capable of maintaining order and of fulfilling its international obligations."
The Philippine question is therefore no longer a question of politics, argument or supposition. To the Philippine mind, at least, it is now a question of whether the United States is ready to discharge its own obligations fully and completely. America went before the world in the recent war as the awarded champion of "self-determination" and Filipinos cannot see how America can consistently refuse to act.
The Filipino people, however, have no grudge or grievance against the American people. Theirs is a message of friendship and gratitude. They seek independence as the natural and logical outcome of America's policy in the islands and of America's solemn promise to them. They come willing to give privileges and concessions not incompatible with their national welfare.
The Filipino people are willing to accept independence under any of the following conditions: Under a League of Nations, guaranteeing its territorial integrity; under the protectorateship of the United States for the first few years; under a treaty of neutrality between the United States, England, Japan, France and other powers, or even without any condition whatever—absolute and complete independence. They have no fear of Japan. Philippine independence, in our opinion, is not inimical to Japanese interests. The Japanese are now free to come to the Philippines, but at the present time there are less than 10,000 Japanese in the islands. There are six times as many Japanese in California as there are in the entire Philippine Archipelago.
The Filipinos are willing to take their chance as a nation. Smaller nations beset by graver problems and dangers have taken a more hazardous chance at freedom, and have succeeded.

TOLLOF CARELESSNESS
Fifteen thousand people were killed last year in motor car accidents, according to statistics. In addition to this, there were 150,000 others more or less seriously injured. These figures should cause very serious thought, for they mean that 41 persons each day, almost one in every hour of the day and night, paid with their lives in motor car accidents for the carelessness of some one. With the number of motor cars growing rapidly and the streets becoming more congested, this startling toll of death and injury seems certain to increase—Arizona Republican.

VOICE OF THE PEOPLE
VOICE OF THE PEOPLE
I don't claim to be a writer of ability, the only apology I have to offer, but what prompts me to write this article is the fact that I am a man of my conviction. I have traveled extensively in this country and have been quick to observe things; that gave me food for thought. I am not a knocker of the race, but of the personality of the man personified.
In the every day walk of life, I notice the average man is not willing to go out in the world and by honest and earnest efforts attain success. The professional man of today is far below the average of the past, because he spends too much of his valuable time trying to make an impression, which when put to a test explodes or bursts like a bubble. The honest effort and sincerity of a man is worth more than casual results. The man most paraded is the man to avoid.
I often wonder why a man will sometimes work overtime trying to deceive, when so much good might result if he spent less effort along his line and came out on the square. Its the professional man of today that usually falls to map out his work as he goes, that has no stability, and so spends a deal of futile effort. In my opinion the accomplishment of a worthy purpose without effort is impossible. We welcome with delight men of our race who by sincere, earnest and honest effort achieve success and have the courage of their conviction.
Respectfully,
JOSEPH J. HORN.

Manchester, N. H.—After a week's strike bricklayers employed on three new school houses in this city defeated an attempt to reduce wages.
The claim was made that food costs have been reduced, but the United States Bureau of Labor statistics show that during the year November, 1919, to November, 1920, food prices in Manchester increased 4 per cent.
