FIND HOW THEY STAND FIND HOW THEY STAND Afro-American Voters Should question Men Running for Congress and Have Them State Their Attitude on Segregation, Jimcrow Bills and Enforcement of the Constitution Before Voting At the Seventh Annual Meeting of the National Independent Equal Rights League, held in New York City, Sept. 7, 1914, in the Address to the Country, this was said: "We advise Colored voters to look into the records of every Congressman up for re-election, to make an issue of the color segregation practiced by certain cabinet officers and encouched in bills already introduced into Congress. Find out where each candidate stands on these anti-Negro bills and the anti-intermarriage bill and act accordingly." THE APPEAL concurs in the above and calls upon the candidates for Congress in Minnesota to publicly state their attitude. Please state 1st. Will you, if elected, seek to prevail upon the Secretary of the Treasury and the Postmaster General to abolish such segregation of Colored government employees as has been instituted under them as to rest-room, eating, working and toilet facilities? 2nd. Will you use your influence, voice and vote against bills to segregate Colored clerks and to establish Jim-Crow cars in the District of Columbia? 3rd. Will you use your influence, voice and vote against bills making it a crime for Colored and non-Colored persons to marry in the District of Columbia? 4th. Will you favor the enforcement of the 14th and 15th Amendments now notoriously nullified in certain states? THE BURDEN OF BEING WHITE. By Ray Stannard Baker, in the American Magazine. Oh, my friend, why will men not see that there can be no true civilization while any men in the world are left out of it? and that no race or no nation can go far forward while other races and nations lag behind? "Let the white person again tread the black person under his heel!" (Say! which is trodden under heel after Short Walk from Freeman to Serf. (Richmond Planet, Richmond, Va.) It seems to us that agitation is needed and that some well directed effort on the part of the Colored people themselves should be made to check this pale of oppression which has now settled down all over the country. With the elimination of our political rights come the interference with our property rights and from freeman to serf is but a short walk in distance. Colored men must stand up for their rights, and they should not depend upon others to stand up for them. While the women are contending for the right of suffrage, let the Colored men contend for the same thing. Political "pull" against us is accomplishing our ruin. We have never believed that the Colored people should eschew politics. This was the commencement of our undoing and the sooner we get back on the political road again, the better. Rights are controlled and curtailed by politics. This is the lever to be used in our favor, just as the white peoples have used it against us. What's In a Name? (Richmond Planet, Richmond, Va.) Mr. R. H. Ball of Lawrence, Mass., is bitterly opposed to the use of the word "negro" in the designation of citizens of color in the United States. We have never been able to understand why such a name should have been applied to us after a residence here dating back to the early settlers of the country. We became more opposed to it when some of our enemies proceeded to designate our women as negresses. This tended to increase our antagonism. It is but fair to say that the Colored people themselves have been largely responsible for the use of the term. Thousands of us use the term "nigger" in speaking to each other and they do it in the presence of white people. If Mr. Ball in conjunction with ourselves, can stop this practice, then it may be that a change may be effected. VOL. 30. NO. 41. Hear us, good Lord! Thou knowest, good God!

THE BURDEN OF BEING WHITE By Ray Stannard Baker, in the American Magazine. * Oh, my friend, why will men not see that there can be no true citizenship while any men in the world are left alone? I? and that no race or no nation can go far forward while other races and nations lag behind? "Let the white person again treat the black person under his heell" (Say! which is trodden under heel after all?) It is not enough that we give the alien nations our learning, our religion, our science. What signify all these things? Are we hurt by giving them? Are we not, on the contrary, the material gainers? No, we must be prepared to go further than that, else we have not learned the fundamental concept of religion. It is not the great task of any nation that it shall remain pure, or white, or learned, or that it shall assure to its posterity the possession of land and life, and the doom, of every aristocracy from the beginning of time). The great task of every advanced race or nation is to bring more love—more light—into the world. A stand for racial aristocracy means war, hatred, barren exclusiveness, and finally degeneration and failure; a stand for racial democracy and brotherhood means love in the world, friendliness, sacrifice, new fertility, a wider sweep for faith, and final triumph. individuals may suffer in the process, but civilization, the kingdom of humanity will grow become more beautiful We are willing to do everything for Chinamen, or Hindus or-for our own poor, except the one essential thing, yes, educate them (a little); yes, teach them the religion of resignation; yes, give them shoes and coats; but do not disturb us in our luxury. It won't work; it won't.work. So long as we refuse to give ourselves we have failed utterly. THE APPEAL. ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS, MINN.. SATURDAY: OCTOBER 10, 1914.

The "Christian" emperors have ordered the fool poor people to go out and kill one another and after attending church where their swords are blessed by the priests and they pray to God for success, the massacre starts. THE APPEAL wishes to call the attention of the murder-mad monarchs to the possibility of forming an army corps in this country, which for efficiency in its chosen line would make the most ferocious, blood-thirsty and inhuman generals look like a lot of pilkers. Why not organize a "Lynchers' Corps?" Let it be under the supreme command of Governor Cole L. Blease, of South Carolina, Senator Ben Tillman, also of South Carolina, the man who boasted in the United States Senate that Afro-Americans were killed because they tried to exercise their rights as free men, would be an ideal man for chief of staff. Ben is a great "Christian" and it is said that he knows more about the Bible than any other Senator. Senator Vardaman, that great "Christian" who has devoted life to the undoing of colored brethren; Senator Williams also of Mississippi, whose recent speech in Congress was more bitter than his colleague's against half of the residents of his state, and Senator Hoak Smith, whose newspaper contributed much to cause the Atlanta riot, are just the men for Brigadier-Generals. Frank Clark of Florida, Charles Gordon Edwards of Georgia, both authors of segregation bills, Congressman Hardwick of Georgia, whose specialty is repeal of fifteenth amendment legislation; James T. Hefflin of Alabama, author of the jimcrow street car bill; Martin Dies of Texas, noted author of the "Brown Bowl" have a bitter hatred against their co-religionists of other colors and are eminently qualified for places as generals. THE APPEAL suggests that Frank Park, of Sylvester, Georgia, another "Christian" who introduced a bill in Congress, making it unlawful for "negroes to be designated or elected as commissioned or non-commissioned officers in the United States Army," be commissioned high private general and the rest of the officers could be selected from the locally prominent segregationists and Samuel L. West, a "Christian" and author of the Baltimore segregation ordinance is certainly entitled to a captaincy. By all means, Dr. Lyman Abbott, who stands preeminent among American Christians who have handed out Bible bunk in defense of subtle attacks on the rights of Americans of dark hue, should be named as chaplain-in-chief. Rev. Frost, who was the first African-American law who undid the real Christian work of that saint John G.

Others, and in Thy soul's soul sit some shadowings of the velvet God, for Thy silence is white, show us the way and point us South is blood; within, the war? To death? this life, dear God, not this. Let defend our strength, for there is whose voice we would not listen, Ah! God! It is a red and saith the Lord! g, wavering words. Lord! soft to the sobbing of women Lord! right. W. E. BURGHARDT DU BOIS. HERS CORPS to the Murder Mad Monarchs of Army Corps Which Would Make monerals Look Like Pikers. Bible beater who stated publicly that he would "not receive a colored Christian into fellowship of his (not Christ's) church;" "Pastor" Russell, who has made a million dollars out of the rot he sends out weekly about Christianity and the brotherhood of man, but ordered colored Christians to the gallery at the production of the "Creation" in New York; and the Catholic priest in Baltimore who ordered a kneeling Christian woman, said to have been the sister of an Afro-American Catholic priest, out of his church, could be utilized as assistant chaplains. The Wash.-Oregon men, who refused to fraternize with an Afro-American minister even while he visited to the Holy Land, where their Christ was born, ought to be the nucleus of a serve corps of Bible bouncists. All of the people have many times invoked the divine blessing on their ungodly racial prejudices. The ranks of the privates could be recruited from the Southern governors, members of Southern legislatures which have passed discriminating laws, and the men who have participated in "lynching bees" in the South. Then all of the contemptible cowardly curs of the colored race, those who believe that they are inferior to other races, those who favor segregation because it pays financially or because Southern Caucasians pat them on their backs, them good niggers," ought to be given good clothes and designated as body servants for the officers of the corps—they'd be delighted to serve. The music for the march to battle could be furnished by the Christian people who had charge of the Christian Sunday School convention in Washington, D. C., a year or two ago. David C. Hickman came into me" but the Washington Christians evidently believing themselves to be superior to their leader, refusing little colored children places in their parade, marched proudly along, singing, "Onward Christian Soldier!" Then the whole aggregation could be shipped away on an unprotected beast and their transport happened to strike a loud noise and they were hurled to——kingdom come, "they never would be missed."

JUST BUNK, PLAIN BUNK. One of the biggest lies ever printed is going the rounds of the Afro-American press. It is to the effect that the Jews have never fought prejudice, but have succeeded by allowing themselves to be kicked and booted about without protest, being too busy annoying the Almighty Dollar to be disturbed by prejudice. In the language of the street, that is bunk, just bunk. As a matter of fact, the Jews are continually fighting prejudice in every way possible, quietly and openly. They have strong organizations and do not hesitate to use their power against their enemies. Because A. T. Stewart, once merchant prince and owner of the Grand Hotel at Saratoga Springs, N. Y., refused to accommodate Jews at his hotel, they ruined his dry goods business. That was forty years ago. Not satisfied with that, they visited their wrath upon his successors, H. B. Claflin & Co., recently and put the firm out of business. It required forty years to complete the job, but they never allowed the thought, "we can't do it," to enter their minds. THEY DID IT. Numbers of hotel proprietors have been financially ruined because they dared to discriminate against the Jews. The Jews also recognize the power of public opinion so they have formed a national organization to fight a single thing—misrepresentation of the Hebrew people on the stage and it is their policy to put out of business any theater manager who permits actors to offensively assail or burlesque the Jews. There are other organizations to fight specific abuses. One organization looks after the schools and protests against Shakespeare's Merchant of Venice as supplementary reading in the public schools, on account of the hideous portrayal of the character Shylock, the Jew. Other organizations look after other abuses. When a poor Jew, in Russia, Mendel Beilis, was charged with ritual mur- PROTEST AGAINST WRONG To submit in silence makes cowards out of n The human race has o Had no voice been r ignorance and lust; th serve the law, and guil disputes. The few who dare, again to right the wrong To submit in silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and lust; the inquisition yet would serve the law, and guillotines decide our last disputes. The few who dare, must speak and speak again to right the wrongs of many. der, the Hebrews all over the world held public meetings and protested. The Russian autocracy had fully determined to convict the innocent man, but in every civilized country of the world the voice of protest went up and so loud was that voice, that even brutal, barbarous Russia heard and the innocent Jew was acquitted. There is no doubt that wealth is a powerful force in fighting prejudice and the Jews use it, but they also appeal to the moral sense of the world. The Afro-American people should accumulate all the wealth they can by honest industry in every line of human endeavor, but they must also fight prejudice as they go along the road to wealth and fight every attempt to steal away their civil rights, in order that they may protect and enjoy their wealth when they have acquired A VAST DIFFERENCE, BROTHER MOORE. Our esteemed contemporary, the New York Age, asks: "What is the difference between segregating colored people in offices at Washington and segregating them every day in the year right at our own doors in the ordinary vocations of life?" THE APPEAL believes that there is a vast difference. Refusal of white people to employ Afro-American mechanics, clerks, stenographers and others is in every case the action of individuals and however unfair it may seem, the individuals have the right to employ whom they please. The case of the government is entirely different. The Afro-Americans are citizens and as citizens they have the right to demand identical treatment other citizens receive. They do not, however, always get it. Afro-Americans who have won their place by civil service tests, have been demoted or discharged without cause except the color of their skins and in several of the departments Afro-American clerks have been segregated from their fellows as if they were lepers. That is a stigma which the Government has no right to place upon honest, intelligent, efficient, industrious and patriotic citizens. There is a vast difference between the acts of individuals and those of the Government of which the Afro-American is a part, which he is taxed to support and which he defends with his life in time of war. "AS TO JIMCROW" Y. M. C. A'S. Those who are disposed to deny the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man and help along race prejudice, by advocating the establishment of separate Young Men's Christian Associations, should read and ponder over the following letter from a white minister to Editor Harry S. Smith of Cleveland, Ohio, and published in his paper, the Cleveland Gazette: Madison, N. J. Sept. 14, 1914. Editor Gazette. Dear Shr.:—You voice the sentiments of my soul and spirit—spirit of Christ; America defy the "color-line" and rank higher than the fundamentals of orthodox religion? The common fatherhood of God (acknowledged by "The Church in America") implies, to all believers, that the foundation of "all men in Jesus Christ."—2 Cor. 5:7; Col. 3:9; Eph. 2:10-19. I have fought in Virginia (Norfolk), Maryland (Baltimore), and New Jersey the pernicious practice of the Young Men's Christian Association in using an asset color-line and using it as an asset color-external to stand Mr. Julius Rosenwald's motive in donating $25,000 to encourage the building of Colored Y. M. C. A.'s in America—do you? Every one built (and successfully maintained) only a color-line and a "color prejudice"! For it is not the filthy, foul-mouthed, evil-smelling, whisky-drinking Negro corner-loader or bar-broom bummer they hate and depreciate so much as the honest, intellective, respecting and capable Afro-American social equality proclivities they fear, because they recognize in him not only a civic equal in embryo, but actually a moral superior on mentality:!! Why should the National Y. M. C. A. recognize, legalize and perpetuate RACE PREJUDICE I am convinced myself, evil thing in this present judice; none at all. I am the worst single thing and holds together more abomination than any other world. Through its book of coarse lust, suspicion and all the darkest soul. --H. G. W. I am convinced myself that there is no more evil thing in this present world than Race Prejudice; none at all. I write deliberately—it is the worst single thing in life now. It justifies and holds together more baseness, cruelty and abomination than any other sort of error in the world. Through its body runs the black blood of coarse lust, suspicion, jealousy and persecution and all the darkest poisons of the human soul. --H. G. Wells in N. Y. Independent. Ella Wheeler Wilcox. the "color-line"? There is none in sin, there is none in sickness, nor poverty, neither in hell nor heaven!!! When, in so doing, they cater to popular prejudice, they dishonor Christ (see Matt. 23:1:4, 811), they degrade religion and condemn their own National organization as a huge hypocritical conspiracy forged to bolster their lie—the sublime equality of all men. I wish you every blessing with success. Fraternally yours, (Rev.) Geo. Wilson Brent "THE POWER OF AGITATION." THE PEAPEAL is always pleased to read in the columns of its Southern Afro-American contemporaries editorials which may serve to inspire the race to always protest against wrong. In the article which follows, Mag. Magle Walker, the banker editor of St. Luke Herald, Richmond, Virginia, truly says, "When the spirit and power of agitation die among a people they are doomed beyond all hope of resuscitation and redemption." THE POWER OF AGITATION. The greatest power on earth for the righting of wrongs, is the power of agitation. When the spirit and power of agitation are doomed beyond all hope of resuscitation and redemption. So important is the power, that it is guaranteed to the people through the mandates of the Constitution of the United States. The Lord himself has never nor has he ever been. It has dinned into his ears until it has reached his very soul, that all he has to do toward righting his wrongs, is to wait until the Lord himself shall see fit to come and do that. He peaceably assembling and making intelligent and persistent protest against outrage and wrong seems foreign to him. Or, should he start an agitation and is rebuffed at the start, he loses all his power and gives up like a disappointed child. It is the agitation of the waters of the sea, which prevents stagnation and death. It is the agitation of the air which gives pure air to breathe. It is the power of breathing that gives us the power of motion and life, and it is the agitation of thoughts and ideas which prevents brain stagnation and mental death. When a people lose that interest in themselves, to that extent that they stand supinely by their sides, they are not protesting, they have reached the danger point in race progress development. TURKEY'S GREAT COUP. That was a neat coup executed by Turkey. Seeing that the time was opportune she has by a stroke of the pen abolished the obvious system of extraterritoriality 'and declared herself supreme in her own house. The principle of extraterritoriality has been very exasperating to the Turks. The alleged "Christian" powers, because the Turks are of Asiatic origin and Mohammedans, assume that they were unable to handle their own affairs and compelled them by force of their superior warships to submit to the indignity of allowing consular courts of the various powers to take the place of the regular Turkish courts. Then Great Britain, Russia, Germany, France, Austria and Italy established branch postofficees in the various cities of the Ottoman Empire for the use of foreigners and in order to compete with these usurping establishments the Turks were obliged to sell stamps at prices below the regular postal union rates. The subjects of the great powers were treated with more consideration than Turkish citizens and exempt from taxation. The situation was almost unbeatable, but the outrageous condition was backed by the combined navies of Europe so what could the poor Turks, who had had a few bum battleships, do? When they voiced strong protests against the injustice of the thing, the Christian powers simply poured them into the ocean. Then came a change. The great Christian powers began to spring at each others' throats and while they were engaged in the delightful pastime of murdering men with machine guns, Turkey, which is now ruled by the "Young Turks" who have modernized the tribunals of justice up to the degree the opportunity to put an end to an unjust and humiliating conditions and "put one over" on the Christians.

RAGLAND - FLETCHER TWO OF THE SAINTLY CITY Mr. Archie R. Ragland and Miss Mary E. Fletcher Join Hands and Set Sail Upon the Uncertain Sea of Matrimony Carrying the Best Wishes of their Friends. The most beautifully appointed wedding of the season was that of Mr. Archie R. Ragland and Miss Mary E. Fletcher, which was so sollenized at Memorial Baptist Church on Tuesday evening, September 29, at 5:30 Clock, Rev E. H. McDowell officiating. Miss Ethel L. Terry sang "O, Promise Me." At the conclusion of the song, Madam Addie Crawford Minor played Mendelsohn's Wedding March party entered the church and proclaimed down the south aisle. Leading the way came little Misses Beula Elizabeth Sears, dressed in cream shadow dresses and a blue embroidery with white ribbons, both carrying a basket of white and pink roses, following came Miss Irma Valle, the embroidery and Japanese mull cowboy arm bouquet of pink roses. The bride followed, unaccompanied, most beautifully gowned in white crepe de chine, en train becoming draped, with a shadow lace and pearl embroidery. He fitted the effect and was held in place by a wreath of smilax and fell gracefully to the hem of her train. She carried a large bouquet of bride's roses. Her hair was a rope of pearls around her neck. When she almost reached the altar the bride groom with his best man, Mr. J. Hickman, Jr., entered from the church. Both groom and best man were attired in conventional black. The ceremony was solemn and impressive and after Rev. McDonald had pronounced them man and wife, Madam Minor again took up the strains of wedding march. The flower girls led Lolita by the bridesmaid leaning on the arm of the best man, Mr. and Mrs. A. R. Ragland. The bridal party entered the three motor cars that stood in waiting and were rapidly conveved to the home of the bride's Edward Williams, Rondo street, where the wedding reception was held. The house was decorated in pink and white with numerous palms and cut flowers. The hostess wore a gown of white embroidered voile and a necklace of coral beads. Mrs. Hulda White, grandmother of the bride was most becoming gowned by the bride trimmed with white lace and wore a claw of pet beads. Miss Jones Mac Patricia Johnson and Thelma Williams served punch. They wore white and pink. Mrs. Williams, was ably assisted by Mrs. Alex Payne, Mrs. Kate Crawford and Mrs. J. C. Black. Mrs. Payne wore a dotted French mull, while Medamesa Crawford and Black wore a triangle with cream lace, soutach and jacquard braid. Messrs. Alex Payne and J. W. Cleary, two of St. Pauls best known caterers, served in the dining room. The favors were tiny bells tied with white ribbon. The wedding guests were attired in fashions latest creations. The presents were numerous and useful as may be learned from the following list: Cut glass vase, Mrs. B. L. Ramsey. Cut glass bon bon dish, Mrs. W. A. Burwell, Minneapolis. Cut glass fruit bowl, Mr. and Mrs. A. G. Davis. Half dozen hand painted pie plates BY REV. QUINCY EWING. But we are very far from needing to rely upon any general consideration in support of the proposition advanced on every hand, waiting only the eye of recognition. Scarcely a day passes but something is said or done with this end in view, to emphasize, lest they forget, the conviction for both white men. Negro that the latter is and must remain the one, me instance a few such evidences. Consider, first, the "Jim Crow" legislation in the manner of its enforcement. Have its object the separation of the races in trains, street cars, etc., to have its people the people in contact with the people, row, rowlming Negroes, and to prevent personal encounters between the whites and blacks. Members of the different races occupy the same cars, separated only by absurdly inadequate little open-mesh wires screens, so tiny and small, that from one seat to another with the strength of his little finger. Needless to add, these screens would serve to obscure neither sound, sight, nor smell of drunken rowdies who sat behind in summer cars, black and white passengers may be separated not even by a make-believe screen; to occupy certain seats in the front or the back end of the cars. In Birmingham, Alabama, the front seats are assigned to Negroes in all closed cars, and the back seats in all open ones. Why the front seats in the one case, and the back seats in the other, it is not easy to understand in the book. The author also spirt of the Jim Crow law! The underlying purpose of the law is clearly not the separation of the races in space; for public sentiment does not insist upon its fulfillment to that end. The underlying purpose of it would seem to be the separation of the races in status. The doctrine of inequality is based on the fact that passengers rode in public conveyances on equal terms; therefore the Negro who rides in a public conveyance must do so, not as of undoubted right, but as with the white man's regulation. "This place you may occupy, that other you may not, because I am not a Negro, that it should be obscured that I am I and you are you." Such is the real spirit of the Jim Crow laws. Mr. and Mrs. T. R.

In every large city, there are hundreds of Negroes who would gladly pay for first-class seats at the theatre and attend to the band. It can hardly be that permission withheld because the theatres and baseball games are so well attended by half the population that first-class seats could not be furnished for the other half. As a matter of fact, theatrical-auditoriums and baseball grand-stands are seldom crowded; the rule is, not all first-class seats occupied, but many vacant Surely as simple as a seat in the street to see a makeshift screen in a streetcar, one set apart a certain number of seats in the dress-circle of every theatre, and in the grandstad of every baseball park, for Negro patrons. The reason why it is not done, is that it is not able to the average Southern man or woman to sit through the hours of a theatrical performance or a baseball game on terms of equal accommodation with Negroes, even with a screen between. Negroes would look out of place, out of sight, and out of the grandstad; their place, signifying their status, is the peanut-gallery, or the bleachers. Consider further that, while no Negro, no matter what his occupation, or personal refinement, or intellectual culture, or moral character, is allowed to trave in a pullman car between state lines, or to enter as a guest a hotel with a blackest of Negro nurses and valets are given food and shelter in all first-class hotels, and occasion neither disgust nor surprise in the Pullman cars. Here again the heart of the race problem is laid bare. The black nurse with a white baby in her arms, the black valet looking after the comfort of a hotel, is given the opportunity inferiority conspicuously upon them; they understand themselves, and everybody understand them, to be servants, enjoying certain privileges for the sake of the person served. Almost anything the Negro may do in the South, and anywhere he may go, is being going is that of an inferior. Such is the premium put upon his inferiority; such his inducement to maintain it.

In addition to providing a county option law, I believe in further reducing the power of the brewery in politics and curbing the minister's influence of the liquor traffic in the state.

Franklin, 1020 Metropolitan Life Building, Minneapolis, for which $1.00 per inch has been paid. HON. JOHN H. STEELE, Non-Partisan Candidate for Judge of District Court, Minneapolis. "A judge is not placed in that high position merely as a passive instrument of parties. He has a duty of his own independent of them, and that duty is to investigate the truth."—Edmund Burke. Judge Steele ACTUALLY LIVES UP TO THAT! The necessary qualifications of a judge are, "To hear courteously, to answer wisely, to consider soberly, and to decide impartially." Judge Steele is possessed of all of the above mentioned qualifications; and more, he is a REAL GENTLEMAN! It is almost unnecessary to draw the attention of the voters to the candidacy of Judge John H. Steele for election to the District Bench, which position he has held since January, 1911. His integrity in unquestioned. His record speaks for itself. He is 58 years old; was admitted to practice law in Illinois in 1883, but in 1884 came to Minneapolis where he has continually practiced law with the exception of the four years that he served on the Probate Bench. His appearance among all classes was superior to the exceptionally large vote he received at the primary election, leading the ticket by a large majority. He has always taken an active interest in all public questions. In deciding any question before him, "justice tempered with mercy" has always been his motto. He not only appreciates your vote; he deserves it! And, he will continue to deserve both your vote and your respect. He is your friend, my friend; OUR FRIEND. Vote for John H. Steele; Jurist, and —by the grace of God, GENTLEMAN! PAID ADVERTISEMENT Prepared and issued by Attorney Wm. H. H. Franklin, 1020 Metropolitan Life Building, for which $1.00 per inch is to be paid. D. C. H. HON. JOHN A. DAHL Judge of Probate, Minneapolis, and Candidate for Re-election. Jurist Has Accomplished Much During Term as Probate Judge. Judge John A. Dahl, whose term as Judge of the Probate Court began January 1st, has been having continued success on the bench. Judge Dahl has taken care of a larger number of cases than have ever been on the court calendar in history. At a recent session he had 59 cases on the docket. As this requires an intimate knowledge of the transactions in each case the imminent work will easily be imagined. Judge Dahl is making a distinct success on the bench and is recognized as one of the rising legal lights of the city. PAID ADVERTISEMENT Prepared and issued by Attorney, Wm. H. H. Franklin, 1020.
