This government is based upon the fundamental idea that each man, no matter what his occupation, his race, or his religious belief, is entitled $\omega$ be treated on his worth as a man, and neither favored nor discriminated against because of any accident in his position.—Theodore Roosevelt. VOL. 1.—NO. 3 LEWKOWITZ WILL BE CANDIDATE FOR JUDGE OF SUPERIOR COURT Herman Lewkowitz, candidate for Judge of the Superior Court, subject to the Democratic primaries September 9th, is one of the most prominent attorneys in Maricopa county. His ability as a lawyer is unquestioned, and it is reasonable to presume that as Judge of the Superior Court of Maricopa county, his rulings and decisions will be governed by the law and evidence in each case and will meet with popular approval by those who have matters to come before him. Mr. Lewkowitz has handled many cases for colored people very successfully and his broad knowledge of the law makes him a man well qualified for the office he seeks. FIVE THINGS EVERY COLORED PERSON MUST LEARN AND PRACTICE 1. Unity. In that he must value and accord necessary honor to his own. 2. That because a man is a good citizen and the leader of a certain group in his own immediate neighborhood, he is not the leader of the fourteen or more million of us. 3. That those of us who have not passed out of the grammar school, and have had little opportunity to study human nature, must learn to accept the opinion of those of our men and women who have had training and experience. 4. That a Negro can be mentally bright, can be a first-class doctor or dentist, or elocutionist, an eloquent divine, a celebrated teacher or a good author, without the white man first saying so. 5. That it is high time for Negroes to awaken to one thing at least—to want recognition of ability as man to man, and not recognition because of the fact that such and such a man is a fine specimen of Negro manhood; and that he was appointed to office because he is, or was, or has been, a leading Negro. We want appointments and recognition to stand on merit and fitness. When these five things shall have been learned by all of us; when they are taught our children and our children's children, the white man will "sit up and take notice."

YOUR HOME MERCHANT NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT NOW AS NEVER BEFORE By A. R. SMITH, Editor Many times we have called attention to the wisdom of patronizing Phoenix merchants. There are many people in this territory who send away to mail order houses for many of their purchases. They do this in the belief that better bargains are offered them by the distant business places and that they can make a better deal. But that is a mistaken idea and were it true it would yet be out-weighed many times by other considerations. This community would be quite sufficient for itself and far more prosperous if the money that is made here were also spent here. But the mail order houses get a good share of it. In sending money away, the mail order house customer fails to take into consideration many matters that rightly hold a claim upon his attention. The home merchant is your neighbor and your friend. He is in touch with your affairs and concerned about your success. He bears his part in building the community and the advantages it offers. He pays taxes to keep going schools, government and provide improvements. He contributes liberally to churches and a hundred activities of one kind and another that help to make the community a better place in which to live. Within the past year numerous demands have been made for contributions for various purposes. Always it is the business and professional people of Phoenix who must bear the big load of these drives. And they do not shirk these demands. We have failed to learn of a single instance where a request was made upon a mail order house for contribution. And if it had been made, the request would have been ignored. And yet there are mail order houses that receive more money out of this community each year than do many local houses. The former pay no taxes, they build no schools nor churches, they pave no streets, they add nothing to the progress or the life of this community. This matter was brought forcibly to our attention the other day when someone stated to us he had just mailed $40 to a distant house for an order of goods. He could have bought these goods from any one of a dozen places in Phoenix and just as cheap. He would have had the further privilege of inspecting them before buying and taking them with him that day. Yet he sent his money away. This case becomes more subject to criticism in the face of the fact that this particular individual is carried on the books of at least one local business house for some hundreds of dollars. When credit must be extended the home merchant is asked to carry the load and when cash can be paid the mail order house gets it. That attitude is all wrong. The progress and the development of Phoenix lies in the hands of the people now living here. Loyalty to this community in all matters is a primary requirement for its progress. One way in which to give expression to that loyalty is by spending our money at home with Phoenix busi-ness establishments. Over From Tucson Mr. and Mrs. A. K. Killman, Misses Myrtle and Mable Alexander of Tucson, motored to Phoenix and spent the week-end as house guests of Mr. and Mrs. T. L. Young, of 1942 East Washington street. Here From Chicago Rev. R.

Washington. 5 Cents a Copy; $2.50 a Year GREAT A. M. E. CHURCH CONDEMNS BOBBED HAIR AND SLEEVELESS GOWNS LOUISVILLE, Ky.-The election of Bishops to the bench of the African Methodist Church, in general conference here, resulted as follows: Rev. A. R. Gaines, Baltimore, Md. Rev. Everdy R. Ransom, New York City. Rev. John A. Gregg, Wilberforce, Ohio. There were over a score of nominees. A real sensation was sprung Monday when, with more than 500 wives and daughters of delegates in the gallery, a resolution was passed to bar women with sleeveless dresses and bobbed hair from holding office in the church. The passing of the resolution effectually determined the stand taken by the A. M. E. church in connection with the so-called "modern girl" who, dispensing with the ideas and methods of their mothers, are establishing a new plane of independence. The passing of the resolution is supposed to mark the first step in a vigorous war against girls who "roll their stockings, bob their hair and believe in making a show of their physical charms." Flipper Addresses Conference The Negro must stop so much complaining and grumbling and do something for himself." These were the words of Bishop Flipper of Georgia, in a ringing address to the conference on the fourth day of the session. Bishop Flipper presided over the session.

LINES Traffic Handled Without Congestion By Increased Railroad Efficiency LOADING INDICATES WESTERN PROSPERITY Cars Loaded in 1923 Would Make Train 8,600 Miles Long; Would Encircle United States Western shippers loaded 1,050,906 cars of freight on Southern Pacific's Pacific System lines in 1923, an increase of almost 200,000 cars over the loading for 1922, which was 851,942 cars. The 1923 loading, according to J. H. Dyer, general manager of the company, was the heaviest in the history of the company. If all the freight cars loaded on the company's Pacific System in 1923 were coupled up with the locomotives necessary to move them and with a proportionate number of cabooses, they would make a train 8,600 miles in length—long enough to extend around the United States from Portland, Oregon, through Chicago, Buffalo, New York, Washington, New Orleans, Los Angeles, San Francisco and back to Portland, with about 400 miles of cars left over. The figures cited give some idea of the prosperity and productiveness of the western states, for these cars were loaded in the states of Oregon, California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona and New Mexico. The size of the imaginary train also gives an idea of the enormous task performed by the Southern Pacific Company in handling this traffic, which was moved quickly and efficiently, without congestion or general car shortage. Southern Pacific, as one of the leading railroad systems of the country, has had a consistently good record in operating efficiency, extending over a period of years, but despite this fact, Southern Pacific's 1923 performance in heavy car loading, in obtaining a high daily mileage of freight cars, and in keeping locomotives and cars in repair, was uniformly better than in previous years. Campaign Planned When it became apparent that 1923 would be a year of unusually heavy traffic, the railroads joined in a campaign to speed up transportation. They set definite high standards of operating efficiency as a goal for the individual roads to reach. These standards were: 80 tons of freight per car loaded; 20 miles per car per day; 85 per cent of locomotives in serviceable condition and not requiring heavy repairs by October 1, the start of the season of heaviest traffic; and 95 per cent of freight cars in serviceable condition, by October 1. Southern Pacific bettered these standards in every instance except in the average carload, and its performance in this respect was a remarkably good one and not to be measured by the goal set for all the railroads, because of Southern Pacific's large tonnage of light loading, perishable products, a full car of which averages about fourteen tons. The average tonnage per car loaded in 1923 was 27.5 tons which was an increase of seven tenths of a ton over the excellent record made in 1922. The company made its freight cars travel twelve miles farther each day than the goal set for the railroads as a whole, getting an average daily mileage per car of forty-two miles. In one month, an average of 47.3 miles per car per day was obtained. The average for 1923 was 36.8 miles. Equipment in Repair Southern Pacific, during 1923, averaged 88.5 per cent for the number of locomotives in serviceable condition and not needing heavy repairs as compared with a percentage of 86.5 in 1922. In only one month did the company have less than 85 per cent of its locomotives in serviceable condition, the goal set by the railroads as a whole for October 1. In only three months did the company have less than 95 per cent of freight cars in serviceable condition, the national goal by October 1. The average for the year was 95.4 per cent as compared with 98.65 per cent in 1922. Another improvement in performance was in the gross locomotive load, which averaged 3 per cent better in 1923 than in 1922. This means that each locomotive was made to haul a heavier load. While there was a shortage of refrigerator cars during the peak of the grape shipping season, it did not approach in extent the shortage of 1922 and did not appear until a greater tonnage of grapes had been shipped up to that time than in any previous year. The same effort for increased efficiency is being made in 1924, according to Southern Pacific officials, and improvements and additions are being steadily made over the system. More equipment, including new locomotives and cars of the finest design, are being received, and more are being ordered. Numbered among our group of producers are 504 flour and grain mill owners Copyright by The Wheeler Syndicate, Inc THE discovery of the body of B. F. Perry in his home at 1316 Callowhill street, Philadelphia, by a man who had come in to see about securing a patent, did not cause any sensation at the time, for the coroner's jury gave a speedy verdict of "death from accidental causes." There was clear evidence that some sort of an explosion had taken place. A shattered bottle which had manifestly contained some sort of infamable material, a broken pipe filled with partly burned tobacco and a charred match, lay beside the body. An autopsy showed that Perry had died from congestion of the lungs caused by the inhaling of fames or chloroform, the latter having presumably formed the contents of the broken bottle. So, as there were no claimants for the body and no estate, Perry's remains were interred in the Potter's field. There they would have remained undisturbed if it had not been for the evidence of a convict in the St. Louis prison. Shortly after Perry's death, the Philadelphia branch of the Fidelity Insurance company received a letter from Jephtha D. Howe, an attorney in St. Louis, stating that "B. F. Perry" was really Benjamin F. Pitelz, who had carried a $10,000 life insurance with the Fidelity company. The only person who could be found to identify the body was a man named H. H. Holmes, of Wilmette, Ill., who willingly came to Philadelphia to superintend the exhuming of the body. Holmes and Howe met in the office of the company, presumably as strangers, and the former clearly identified the body of the dead man as that of his friend, Pitelz. Satisfied, the insurance company paid the insurance to Howe, Pitelz's attorney, and reimbursed Holmes for his expenses. The details of the case were reported in the St. Louis newspapers, and a few days later, Marlon Hedgspeth, a convict serving a sentence for train robbery, informed the governor of the prison that he would like to give him some information which he considered most important. "If you will examine the records of the prison," said Hedgspeth, "you will find that there was a man here last summer by the name of H. H. Howard. He was in for fraud, I think, but was released on bail. While he was here. Howard asked me if I knew any lawyer whom I could recommend in connection with a swindling scheme which he had in mind—a plan which ought to net at least $10,000 without any trouble. He promised me $500 for my information and I gave him the lawyer's name, but I never got my five hundred." "The name of the lawyer I recommended to 'Howard' was Jephtha D. Howe and 'Howard' is undoubtedly the man named Holmes who is mixed up with that insurance case in Philadelphia'. The details of the case agree exactly with the scheme, as Howard outlined it to me last summer." As soon as this information reached Philadelphia, the insurance company, detailed an experienced detective named Geyer to arrest Holmes and to investigate his antecedents, for it was clear that Pitezel had not met his death through accident, but had been deliberately murdered. After a month's search, Holmes was traced to New England and finally arrested. This, however, proved to be practically the beginning of the case for, the further back Geyer went into Holmes' history, the more gruesome details he discovered. In endeavoring to find out what had become of Mrs. Pitezel and her five children, Geyer found in the cellar of a house in Toronto—a house rented by Holmes under the name of Canning—the bodies of two children later identified as Alice and Etta Pitezel. From Toronto the trail led to Indianapolis, by way of Detroit and Chechnnatt, and it was in Indianapolis that Geyer discovered the body of Howard Pitezel, aged ten, jammed into the chimney of the furnace in a house which had been rented some time before by a man who answered to the description of Holmes. It was in the course of his search through Indiana and Illinois that Geyer came upon the most startling discovery of the entire case—the mysterious building in Chicago known as "Holmes' Castle" or "Holmehurst." The prisoner had personally superintended the erection of this structure and investigation proved that it contained an alr-proof, sound-proof vault, communicating with the cellar by means of a secret staircase. Buried in the cellar floor and half-consumed by quicklime were found the remains of at least five persons who had been lured to Holmehurst and there murdered. All of these crimes had been committed some time before the Pitezel affair, and had it not been for the fact that Holmes overlooked the promise, which he had made to a convict in the St. Louis prison, it is quite possible that he would have remained at liberty, a constant and deadly peril to everyone with whom he came in contact. But Detective Geyer returned to Philadelphia with more than enough evidence to secure conviction, and Helmes paid the penalty for his crime on the gallows. Henry Blair was the first colored man to receive a patent on an invention. In 1834 and 1838 he was granted a patent on a corn harvester. THE PHOENIX TRIBUNE-ALWAYS IMPROVING The KITCHEN CABINET In all things throughout the world, the man who looks for the crooked will see the crooked, and the man who looks for the straight will see the straight—Ruskula. Oatmeal bread when well made is a most wholesome food for every member of the family. Oatmeal Bread. -Boil enough potatoes to make two cupfuls when mashed and save the water in which they were Oatmeal Bread —Boil enough potatoes to make two cupfuls when mashed and save the water in which they were cooked, adding enough water to make one quart. Pour this over the potatoes, add two tablespoonfuls of shortening, one tablespoonful of sugar and one of salt. Put over the heat and when boiling add two cupfuls of rolled oats; let boil five minutes then remove and cool. When lukewarm add one and one-half yeast cakes dissolved in one-quarter of a cupful of warm milk, add a teaspoonful of soda and two quarts of flour. Mix in the bread mixer until smooth, or knead by hand as usual. Let it rise over night and in the morning mold into three loaves. Bake one and one-quarter hours in a moderate oven. Bran Gems.—To one cupful of flour add one and one-half teaspoonfuls of soda and sift. Stir in two cupfuls of bran, three tablespoonfuls of molasses, one and one-half cupfuls of sour milk, one-fourth of a cupful of shortening and one-fourth of a teaspoonful of salt. Stir until well mixed and bake in well-greased gem pans three-quarters of an hour. Baked Cheese Sandwiches.—Stir a little finely-grated or chopped American cheese into a rich white sauce. Out bread into rounds and butter, spread with the white sauce heaping it on in the center. Place the bread in a hot oven to toast. Ham may be used in place of the cheese if so desired. If one is fond of Chinese cookery there are many dishes which are simple and easy to prepare. The following is a variation of chon suy: Take a half pound of round steak, cut in half-inch cubes and fry in a little fat, add one cupful of diced celery, season well, and water and cook until the celery is tender, season with a teaspoonful of soye sauce. This is found in most markets and is not expensive. Serve hot with hot bolted rice. Nellie Maxwell The KITCHEN CABINET (©, 1923, Western Newspaper Union.) When a world of men could not prevail with all their oratory, yet hath a woman's kindness overruled A dalty dish to serve for a company luncheon is the following: Sweetbread With Orange Sauce.—Soak pair of sweet-breads in cold water for twenty minutes; put over the heat in plenty of cold water Sweetbread d r With Orange Sauce.—Soak a pair of sweetbreads in cold water for twenty minutes; put over the heat in plenty of cold water heat very gradually to boiling point then simmer for twenty minutes, drain and let stand in cold water until cold. Remove the unedible portions, but keep the sweetbreads unbroken. Set on a rack in a dripping pan, sprinkle with salt and pepper, pour over the juice of an orange and bake twenty minutes. Serve with Orange Sauce.—Cut the peel of an orange into shreds and cover with boiling water, cook five minutes and drain. To the blanched peel add one-half cupful of beef juice, three-fourths of a cupful of brown sauce, the juice of two oranges and one lemon, one-fourth of a teaspoonful each of cayenne and salt; stir until smooth and hot. Honey Fruit Cake.—In a warm bowl beat to a cream one-half cupful of butter, three-fourths of a cupful of honey, add one-third of a cupful of boiled elder, two well-beaten eggs, one teaspoonful each of cinnamon, stoves and mace, and a teaspoonful of soda dissolved in a little warm water beat well and add flour to make a stiff batter; add two-thirds of a cupful of stoned chopped prunes and dried figs, the same of seedless raisins. Pour into a buttered, floured tin and bake in a slow oven. This cake will be better if kept in a tight container for several weeks. Lemon Honey Cakes.—Bring to the boiling point one and one-half cupfuls of honey, skim carefully, add four tablespoonfuls of butter and cool. Stir in two cupfuls of sifted pastry flour and set in a cool place over night. When ready to bake add the grated rind of one lemon, two tablespoonfuls of lemon juice, one-half cupful of chopped almonds and one-half teaspoonful of soda dissolved in a little warm water. Bake in small muffin pans. When cold ice with lemon iceing. Nellie Maxwell The per capita consumption of meat is about 151 pounds. True Detective Stories SHADOW OF EVIL Copyright by The Wheeler Syndicate, Inc. "I'll be back in a few minutes," said Henry Goudie, cashier of the Bank of Liverpool, to one of his associates. "I'm just going across the street to get a bite of lunch." An hour later the officials of the bank began to wonder where Goudie was, but the fact that his hat still remained upon its accustomed peg indicated that the cashier wasn't far away, and that he would soon return. But at the closing hour that afternoon Goudie was still missing—and when an auditor went over his books it was discovered that a hundred and seventy-five thousand pounds (some $850,000) had disappeared! Inquiry at the house where Goudie had lodged failed to bring to light any trace of the missing cashier, who had left home that morning as usual, apparently without any intention of being away over night. His clothes were in their accustomed position, and even his toilet articles were untouched. In fact, if it hadn't been for the disappearance of the money from the bank, the police would have searched the hospitals, on the theory that Goudie had met with an accident. But, as Frank Freost, superintendent of Scotland Yard, pointed out, it was hardly likely that a bank official and $850,000 would vanish at one and the same time without some connection between the two events. "As luck would have it," continued Froest, one of the ablest detectives in England, "Goudle has chosen the simplest manner in which to make his escape—the easiest from his point of view and the most difficult from the standpoint of the police. It is comparatively simple to find a man who lays his plans in advance. You can usually trace his baggage or his railway tickets. But Goudle just walked out to lunch and lost himself somewhere. He left only one clue behind him—his hat. Therefore, working on the assumption that a hatless man would be quite conspicuous, and that Goudle, knowing this, would immediately purchase another hat, Freost made the rounds of the shops near the Liverpool bank. From the clerk in one of them he obtained the information that a man answering to the description of the missing cashier had purchased a cloth cap of a distinctive pattern only a few moments after noon on the day that Goudle vanished. By means of this clue and a detailed report on Goudle's appearance, Freost soon had every man connected with Scotland Yard searching for the absconding cashier. But it was several weeks before he was located and captured in a lodging house in the north of England. However, the arrest of the man who looted the Bank of Liverpool did not by any means close the case. Even before he was discovered, Freost had found out that Goudie had been in the habit of playing the races —patronzing a clique of "hand-book men," who had played upon his cupidity in such a manner that they, and not he, had secured the benefits of his dishonesty. In order to recover the money, Freost therefore had to round up the members of this gambling ring and force them to disgorge. It developed that the leader of the organization, sensing a way in which to make a lot of money, without running any risk, had approached Goudle with an account of a "fixed race" which was to be run at Epsom Downs, and that the cashier, believing that he could clean up a fortune in a single day, had taken twenty-five thousand pounds from the bank, falsifying the accounts to conceal the shortage. The man's credulity is evident from the fact that he placed the money at odds of 20 to 1, which meant that he stood to win half a million pounds, or $2,500,000 if his horse came in first. Of course, no bookmaker could afford to pay a bet of this size—but Goudle overlooked this fact and cheerfully wagered his "borrowed" capital. The horse naturally failed to win, and, in an effort to recoup his losses, the cashier commenced systematically to loot the bank's funds. One of the odd features of the case which Freost discovered, by blind luck, Goudie one day placed a big bet on a horse that won. When he went to collect his bet, with the firm intention of squaring his accounts with the bank, he was casually informed that the wager had not been placed in time, and he was advised to put it on another "sure tip," which lost. When his defalcations reached a point when it was hopeless to attempt further concealment from the bank authorities. Gouldie "went out to lunch." It didn't take Freost long to discover that, in planning a round-up of the gambling gang he was tackling one of the most difficult jobs of his career. One by one Freost picked up the various threads of the tangled case. One by one he followed the various clues, at least one of which led to the suicide of a member of the bookmakers' clique. But, in addition to seeing that Gouldie was sent to prison for ten years, Freost secured evidence which forced the return of all but a small amount of money which had been taken from the Bank of Liverpool and placed upon horses, which, save in a single instance, had no chance whatever to win.
