No man in the city's history ever represented his people with more complete honesty, independence, energy and faithfulness than he has.

A vote for Handlan is a vote for intelligent and earnest activity in behalf of all the people all the time. THE APPEAL. ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS. MINN.. SATURDAY. OCTOBER 31, 1914.

THE APPEARANCE 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, Mrs. Maggie . . . 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 right to resist is the power of agitation. When the spirit and power of agitation die among a people, they are doomed beyond all hope of resuscitation and redemption. So important is the power, that it is guaranteed to be used against the Constitution of the United States. Russians and Americans Alike. (Nashville Globe.) It will be a "commandable event in the march of civilization" if the war brings freedom to the Jews in Russia, but we fear the Russians are wholly like their cousins, aunts and uncles in America and Canada.

"The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People," recently sent out letters to the Republican, Progressive and Democratic candidate in Congress in the several states, asking how they stood on the following: Abrogation of the 14th and 15th Amendments. Segregation if the Federal Service. The Twin Crow Car in the District of Columbia. Anti-Intermarriage Laws. Lynching. Reduction of Representation in the states that disfranchise the negro. In Minnesota, seventeen of the candidates to Congress did not reply at all; four made only partial answers more or less unsatisfactory. Four answered all satisfactorily, they were: FREDERICK C. STEVENS (Rep.), Fond District. GEORGE R. SMITH (Rep.), Fifth District. FRED M. POWERS (Prog.), Fifth District. THOS. D. SCHALL (Prog.), Tenth District. 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 take the pait of oppression which has now settled down all over the country. With the elimination of our political rights has come the interference with our property rights and from freeman to serf is but a short walk in distance. Colored men must take the pait of 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 accompanied by the realization 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. The rights are controlled and curtled by the lever to be used in our favor, just as the white peoples have used it against us.

CRANCUM BELOVED DAUGHTER OF MR. E. W. CRANCUM, ST. PAUL Who Has Been Living with her Grand- parents in Washington, D. C. Has Been Called to Her Home in Heaven —"Death Loves a Shining Mark." Little Mildred Ellen Crancum, after falling health in the last few months a few weeks' illness, passed to the Great Beyond at 12:30, midnight, Sunday, Oct. 16, 2014, at Washington, D. C. Mildred Ellen Crancum was born Aug. 15, 1900, at 450 Rondo street, St. P. Minn. Her parents were Ernest W. Crancum, grandmother and Martha Crancum, formerly of Va. and, Gertrude Gideon Crancum, daughter of Joshua and Nancy Gideon, of Washington, D. C. She is mourned by her father, grandmother, grand- father and uncles of Washington, D. C., her grandparents on the father's side being dead. Mildred's mother died when she (Mildred) was two years and nine months old, and when she was three years old she went to reside with her brother. She was aunt to her mother where she has resided until her death. She was lauded and loved by her, far MILDRED ELLEN CRANCUM. ther, grandparents and uncles, and it seemed like taking their hearts to lose her, but God knows best. Mrs. Gideon, her grandmother, was as sweet and kind to her as any mother or grandmother could be to a child, and she appreciated in greater terms than words express. Several of her father's best friends have called to see Mildred when visiting in Washington and found her in attendance of loving surroundings indicated good treatment, peace, plenty and a good home. From the day that Mildred was born until her death, her father's daily prayer was that her every day necessities might be a good Christian girl, that she might be a good Christian girl, thanks God that his prayers were answered. Mildred's every day, her necessity of life, her faith visited her, her mother, has been looked after by her parents and uncles, consequently she suffered for nothing while on this earth. When she was seven years old, her father visited her and placed an account in the bank in Washington C., for her, turned the bank book over to her, which she has had in her possession ever since. He neglected her for no one. With him she was first, she was first, begin with that he would never forget he had on this earth his little daughter, Mildred. He kept his promise, but always hoped that Mildred would be the longest liver. He was shortened when seven years old—a fully confessed Christian, she proclaimed to her grandparents that she would soon be in Heaven with the angels, where she would meet her parents, where she would meet her said she saw in Heaven, in a vision. It was easy for her to live a careful Christian life, for she was trained that way. Her parents, grandparents, uncles and great uncles on both sides Christians and lived very careful lives. Mildred was smart from childhood. When only two and one-half years old she could visit the neighbors alone and could tell you the number of the house in which she lived. Her studies at school. Her Aunt Effie began to teach her the alphabet before she was four years old. When only six years old she could write notes to her father, which she would put in the letter written to him by her Aunt Effie. Her father would write to her, which could read every word. When Mildred was a little less than seven years old, her Aunt Effie passed from this world to the world beyond in her seventh year, and from: that day until six weeks before little Mildred passed of writing the letters to the responsibility of writing the letters to her father for grandma and herself. She kept her father posted as to the progress she was making in school, letting him know when she was promoted from one grade to another. Her mother always appreciated and studied 'for a high percentage in rating, which she always received. When she was promoted to the Seventh Grade her father began to advise her many books of service. He also related to her that as soon as she graduated from the public school and the high school that he would send her to Howard University (his Alma Mater) to take a teacher course in college. She also kind remarks from her father she was enthused, graduating from the Seventh grade leading the class with a very high percentage. She was promoted to the Eighth Grade (A) when thirteen years old. Ill health prevailed, leading to school to the past September. She delighted in her school books and studies in general, in fact, to study for her was natural. She came from an educated family on both sides. Her mother, aunt and uncles had the advantage of a high school education and a college degree. She attended the public school at Centerville, Va., and from the Private Preparatory School at Pleasant Valley, Va., entered Howard University, D. C, where he was a student three scholastic years, and was for two years a correspondent student of the Columbia Correspondence College of Washington, D.C. He began former studies in order that he might be able to advise and give valuable assistance to his little daughter during her four years in the high school. He had begun to make preparation for her entrance to the high school as soon as she graduated from the Eighth Grade in the public school. He realized that mathematics was usually hard to the average girl throughout high school, but he bought at least twenty books on the treatise of mathematics from every phase, picked four from the lot, which it was his intention to send her as soon as she entered high school. The ones he picked would enable her to solve any problem in mathematics and be confronted in the high school. The ambition of her father was for her to live to be a woman of great education, and she was ambitious to obtain a good education. For her age she could play remarkably well on the piano. She taught to take music lessons from a professional teacher when she was only seven years old and at the age of ten her playing was excellent and she improved daily until taken sick. She came into this world with a piano at her disposal in her mother's parlor, end left this world with one disposal in her grandmother's parlor. To be musical, to her, it was natural—she came from a musical family on the mother's side. Her mother, her stepmother, popped up on the piano. Her mother had a good musical education, her father having spent many dollars for her music lessons. When her mother was only two years old, she piped organ at the Fifth Ballet Church, Washington, D. C., which at that time had a membership of over three thousand. Mildred was very smart and industrious for a girl of her age. At age of twelve she could cut out and make her own clothes. To be industrious was natural for her; she came from industrious families on both sides. Her grandfather has been eminent. She graduated from D. C., over 28 years and both uncles have had good positions in Washington, D. C. ever since they graduated from school. Her mother, her stepmother, the civil service examination for clerk in the Bureau of Printing and Engraving. She passed with a high percentage and was offered a position in the office after she married, but did not accept. Her father has had regular employment ever since he left the walls of Howard University as a student. His first position in this city was time manager of the regime of M. D. Pettis. He held that position with credit and efficiency for five years, when he resigned to accept the position as night electrician for the same establishment. He held that position with credit for more than ten years, and then resigned the latter part of 1911 to accept the position as clerk in the city post office, having been successful in passing a civil service examination with a very high percentage in a class of at least seventy-five other competitors. It was a life of which his father to live a would be proud, consequently, for her sake he has been very, very careful, and expects to continue likewise on account of the respect he has for her whom he expects to meet in Heaven. The father desired Patriarchy. The father desired many good things as possible as an inspiration to his little daughter. The father had mentioned the fact to only a few of his intimate friends that his daughter was failing in health for he had hopes that she grew too fast, according to the statement. Two doctors and a trained nurse. At seven years old, she was as tall as the average girl at ten. She had the best medical treatment that could be given her and the services of a trained nurse but the skill of human hands was the best we knew best and took her to live with him. Her passing to the other world is extremely sad to the members of the family for, as one, they wryshipped her, but the consolation must come from the fact that God knew best. Even though she was only three years old, she would be to live with her grandparents she is remembered and beamed by many. The picture above was taken when she was 13 years old. The father can be seen with good feelings towards her grandparents for the tender care they took of his little daughter Mildred. They looked after her wants as only grandmother could kind treatment to her they made home for her. Their every action towards her was as gentle as a zephyr in May, carrying with it a sweetness like unto the flowers of Palestine. PAID ADVERTISEMENT Prepared and issued by and for M. J.

"The style of all legislative measures and amendments to the constitution initiation shall be the same as this section shall be: 'Be it enforced by the people of the State of Minnesota. "The provisions of this section may be enforced by approval legislation, but until such legislation has been enacted, this section shall be self-executing." EFFECT: The effect of this amendment, if adopted, will be to give to the members the privilege of submitting direct action to the voters constitutional amendments, proposing legislation, and the right to suspend and annul laws enacted by the Legislature. SECOND PROPOSED AMENDMENT: The second proposed amendment is contained in Chapter 585 of the Laws of Minnesota for the year 1918. PURPOSE: The purpose and object of this amendment is to add two Associate Justices to the Supreme Court; to require the concurrence of five Justices of the Supreme Court before any law shall be declared unconstitutional by such court, and make the office of Clerk of the Supreme Court appointive, and is an amendment of Section 2 of Article 6 of the Constitution, which law reads as follows: "Sec. 2. The supreme court shall consist of one chief justice and two associate justices, and the number of the associate justices may be a number not exceeding four, by the legislature, by a two-thirds vote, when the associate justices have original jurisdiction in such remedial cases as may be prescribed by law, and appellate jurisdiction in all cases.

The supreme court shall consist of one chief justice and six associate judges. Five shall constitute a quorum. The rence of at least four shall be necessary to a decision, but no more than two must be tutual unless five members of the court shall concur in the decision.

It shall be the duty of such court to appoint a judge, and a clerk of the supreme court. EFFECT: The present constitution provides that the number of Associate Justices of the Supreme Court shall not exceed four in number, while the amendment, if adopted, will increase the number to six. A majority of the Supreme Court may now declare a law unconstitutional, but if this amendment is adopted, it will require the concurrence of five members. The office of clerk of the Supreme Court is now elective, but if this amendment is adopted the clerk of the Supreme Court will be appointed by the court. THIRD PROPOSED AMENDMENT The third proposed amendment is contained in Chapter 588 of the Laws of Minnesota for the year 1913. PURPOSE: By this amendment it is sought to authorize the State to construct roads, ditches, fire breaks through and around unsold state school and swamp lands, and a $250,000 revolving fund, realized and kept up from the sale of such lands, is to be set apart for such purpose. This is an amendment of Section 2 of Article 8 of the Constitution, which law reads as follows: Defective Page and adds thereto the following: "A revolving fund of not over Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars from the funds derived from the sale of school and swamp lands, to the construction of roads, ditches and fire breaks in through and around unsold school and swamp lands, such fund to be reimbursed for the enhanced value realized from the sale of such lands so benefited." EFFECT: The effect of this amendment, if adopted, will be to permit the state to improve the school and swamp lands of the State out of monies derived from the sale of such lands, and by the State into line with the conditions of the Swamp Land Grant as to drainage of the Swamp land and a revolving fund thereof, pending the ultimate application of the avail of such grant to the common school fund of the State and the educational and charitable institutions thereof. FOURTH PROPOSED AMENDMENT The fourth proposed amendment is contained in Chapter 587 of the Laws of Minnesota for the year 1913. PURPOSE: By this amendment it is proposed to repeal the provisions of Section 11 of Article 9 of the Constitution, which section now reads as follows: "Section 11. There shall be published by the treasurer, in at least one newspaper printed at the seat of government, in the county in which the January in each year, and in the next twelve months, the acts of legislature, detailed state-treasury matters drawn from the treasury during the year, and the what purpose and to whom paid, and by the authorized and; also of all money received by; and of authority and from whom." EFFECT: The Constitution requires the treasurer to publish yearly a detailed statement of the money drawn from the treasury during the preceding year, giving the names of the persons to whom paid and the purposes for which it was expended. It also requires a like statement of the names of the sources of the money, and the sources, as to money received, and the statement of the law under which payments were made, or money paid into the treasury. The effect of this amendment, if the same be adopted, will be to repeal the section of the Constitution mentioned and insofar relieve the treasurer from such publication and the State from the expense thereof. This change in the Constitution, however, should not affect the Legislature from directing by law such, or a different publication, of the same or other information, should be made by the treasurer. FIFTH PROPOSED AMENDMENT. The fifth proposed amendment is contained in Chapter 588 of the Laws of Minnesota for the year 1913. PURPOSE: The purpose of this amendment is to permit the permanent school and university funds of this State to be invested in first mortgage loans upon improved and cultivated farm lands of the State. This amendment would change Section 6 of Article 8 of the Constitution, which now reads as follows: "Sec. 6. The permanent school and university fund of this state may be used for the education of the county, school district, city, town or village of this state, but no such investment shall be made unless approved by the board of education of the county, nor shall the regulate the investment of the permanent school fund and the permanent education of the county, nor shall such loan or investment be made to the bonds to be issued or purchased in a mature, mature indebtedness exceeded fifteen (15) percent of the assessed valuation of the taxable real property of the county, school district, city, town or village, using such bonds; nor shall such loans be made to theness be made at a lower rate of interest than three (3) per cent per annum; nor shall such loans be made to theness be made at a longer period than twenty (20) years, and no change of the town, city, village or county lines shall be made in property in such town, school district, county, village or city in this state at any time in the issuing of such bonds from any liability for taxation to pay such bonds." and substitute therefor the followings "Section 6.

EFFECT: The present Constitution authorizes the investment of the land ment school and university funds of this State in the bonds of any county, school district, city, town or village of this State. This amendment, if adopted, will permit in addition to the foregoing investments, sold school and university funds to be invested also in first mortgage loans secured upon improved and cultivated farm lands of this State. The present Constitution provides that no investment shall be made for a longer period than twenty years, while the proposed amendment extends the period to thirty years.

SEVENTH PROPOSED ADMENDMENT. The seventh proposed amendment is contained in Chapter 590 of the Laws of Minnesota for the year 1913. PURPOSE: The purpose of said amendment is to fix and limit the number of State Senators. Section 2 of Article 4 of the Constitution now reads as follows: "Section 3. The number of members we will elect the Senate and House of Representatives in the State law, but the representatives in the Senate shall never exceed one member for each House of Representatives and one in the House of Representatives one member for every 2,000 inhabitants.

EFFECT: The object of this amendment is to limit the State Senate to sixty-three members and to prevent any one county having more than seven senators. EIGHTH PROPOSED AMENDMENT The eighth proposed amendment is contained in Chapter 591 of the Laws of Minnesota for the year 1913.

It is proposed to create a fund out of which owners of domestic animals may be reimbursed for loss sustained by reason of injuries caused by dogs. Yours respectfully, LYNDON A. SMITH, Attorney, General. St. Paul, May 6, 1914. Mr. Julius A. Schmalh, Secretary of the Dear Sir: Referring to proposed Constitutional Amendment No. 4 would say, As state expert printer I have given the publications involved in this proposed amendment special thought, and am of opinion both these publications are entirely superfluous. The extensive annual publication "in a daily newspaper citizen city" attracts absolutely no attention. The port of the state treasurer is published in book form, and to an extent that makes it easy for every person specially concerned to secure a copy. To conform strictly with the law as it is at present, means the expenditure, under reasonably favorable printing contracts of approximately $8,000, a sum which can be used to excellent advantage under conditions which ordinarily suggest the greatest and economy upon the part of those under direction the printing fund is expended.

There are eleven amendments to be voted for on November 3rd next on the pink ballot to amend the Constitution of the State of Minnesota. It will be remembered that the last legislature extended the terms of all the county officers to four years, excepting that of the Judge of Probate, the Judge of Probate, court being fixed by the constitution, it requires a majority of the votes cast to change the term and the legislature therefore submits Amendment No. 6 to the voters to extend the term. If Amendment No. 6 is not carried the County will be put to a heavy expense to hold an election expressly to elect the Judge of Probate as he alone will be elected for two years, it will, therefore be economy for the taxpayers to vote for the extension of the term. VOTE FOR AMENDMENT No. 6. See supplement. PAID ADVERTISEMENT. Prepared by and for D. C. Jones, 504 Lowry Building, for which $1.00 per inch is to be paid. "HAS MADE GOOD." D. C. JONES Coroner of Ramsey County and Candidate for Re-election. The attention of every fair minded citizen is called to the systematic destruction of Dr. Jones' political cards as shown by the fact that his posters on nearly every voting booth have been pasted over with plain paper. He must indeed have been a good official if this underhanded work is the best argument they can find against him. Lovers of fair play and clean politics will undoubtedly rebuke these tricky methods by voting for CORONER JONES, "My record is My Platform." THE EMPORIUM AND THE BENES FICIARY LODGES. The Emporium Dept. Store has opened a bureau for the convenience of Lodge members who cannot attend their meetings to pay their dues. Such persons may leave their money with Mr. F. D. RALPH at the general offices on the 4th floor, taking a receipt therefor; to be passed on by Mr. Ralph, at the proper time, to their financial officer. This will prove a great convenience and a genuine saving to those folks who now spend time and car fare perhaps making two or more trips, to the homes or offices of their finance secretaries, or buy their orders and pay postage. The Emporium offers this service without any charge whatsoever just as an accommodation to such as desire to make use of it. A number of Orders in the city are arranging to accept the convenience, beginning with November. ELECTION NOTES: Read all the Amendments published in the Supplement very carefully and vote for the good ones so that they may receive the necessary number of votes. This election in the Twin Cities is generally, non-partisan and as the old saying goes, "you may your money and you take your choice." There are six different political parties represented in the candidates for Governor: Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Prohibition, Progressive and Industrial Labor. Be sure to vote for Amendments Nos. 3, 6 and 9. The election next Tuesday is the most important thing just now, and the APPEAL is devoting all the space possible to the politicians.

Mr. Editor: In these non-partisan days in politics, it is quite possible that voters may overlook some of their best friends. It behoves every voter and especially the colored voters to vote for men who believe in a square deal for all; one who has the interest of all the people at heart regardless of race, color or position in life. A vote for Judge Albert Johnson of Red Wing, Minn., candidate for Associate Justice of the Supreme Court, is a vote for one who has been a champion of the people; for one whose record is an open book. Judge Johnson was Prosecuting Attorney for Goodhue County, Minn., for several years, and then resumed his law practice at Red Wing. At the death of Judge Williston of the District Court of the 1st Judicial District, the late Gov. Johnson appointed him to fill out the unexpired term, which position he still fills. During the several years he has served the District bench, he has discharged all duties with such marked ability and satisfaction to both the bar and the people, that his friends all over the state urged him to be a candidate for Associate Justice of the Supreme Court. You will recall no doubt that it was Judge Johnson's decision in the Railroad Rate cases that brought the two-cent-a-mile into effect again. I was born and raised in Red Wing, and have had the pleasure of knowing Judge Johnson a city practicing and prosecuting attorney, as well as judge; and having been a gentleman in the strictest sense of the word; as a practicing attorney he was sincere; as prosecuting attorney he was firm and as judge he has always been fair and just to all concern. I gives me great pleasure in heartily recommending to the colored voters of Minnesota Judge Albert Johnson, Candidate for Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the State.

Paul, Minn., Oct. 28, 1914. To The Editor of THE APPEAL: I read with much interest the communication signed by Mr. Chandler, in reference to the colored vote and with his rights and privileges are affected by the sentiments laws, and I heartily subscribe to the sentiments expressed in his communication. If I may be accorded space in your columns, I would like to suggest that the sentiments of Mr. Chandler apply with equal force to gubernatorial candidates and I think the attention of the colored voter ought to be called to act as the two principal candidates to the Governor stand absolutely opposed to the question, which is of so much importance to the colored man, as expressed in Mr. Chandler's letter. Mr. Lee has declared unequivocally for county option and prohibition and the people decide this question for apparently he is not satisfied to let themselves, but he wants it decided himself. Mr. Lee wants it and should the majority of the people Minnesota decide against county option, Mr. Lee will consider that the majority is wrong because they have not agreed with him. He pledges himself in advance (no matter what the verdict of the people may be) to insist upon the passage of a county option bill at the next session of the legislature. Mr. Hammond, on the other hand, is willing to let the people decide this matter for themselves and will not use the influence of the office to secure the enactment of a county option law. This is a fair statement of the attitude of these two candidates upon this question and aside from his attitude toward the session there is another thing that. It seems to me, ought to be brought home to our people and that is this: Mr. Lee can hardly claim the support of the Republicans as a Republican for the reason that he himself has not supported the Republican candidates and policies in the past. He failed to support Taft and Eberhart in the last campaign and therefore no Republican of our race need to feel that he owes anything to Mr. Lee by reason of his party allegiance. Very truly yours.

Resident and Practicing Attorney in the District for 32 years. Dr.H.I.WILLIAMS Announces his NEW method of PAINLESS DENTISTRY Should Cut No Figure with Respect to the Election of W. E. Lee. To the Editor of THE APPEAL. As you permitted Mr. W. F. T. Chandler space in your last week's issue to express himself upon the question of County Option, I assume your columns are open to a reply to that article. I discussed this question personally with Mr. Chandler last night and his understanding of it is so vague that I am led to wonder if he really gave the matter any consideration before he was induced to sign the talk about County Option among the members of our race. I played in the various hotels and cafes, is to use it as a "big stick" to frighten them into voting for W. S. Hammond, the Democratic candidate for Governor. In order that County Option might obtain in this state is it necessary that a bill covering it should first be passed by the members of the legislature, and then the mate will be submitted to the people of each county in order to desired to put the County Option law in. If a majority of the people in the county vote for County Option then, and not until then, does it become effective in that county. Mr. Lee and Mr. Hammond, are candidates for the office of Governor of the State of Minnesota, and the Governor of the State does not introduce or pass bills in the Legislature, and therefore neither Mr. Lee nor Mr. Hammond can have any influence on pumps County Option into effect. I am more than than to sign the bill if it is passed by the Legislature and both Mr. Lee and Mr. Hammond have said that they would sign such a bill if passed. When Mr. Bryan was here, a few days ago, he said that Mr. Hammond was President Wilson's candidate; that he assisted Mr. Wilson in carrying out his policies, and that every man who believed in Mr. Wilson's policies and the policies of the Democratic party should vote for Mr. Hammond. The policies of Mr. Wilson and the Democratic party are much like modern dances—one step forward, two steps backward, hesitate and side-step. Don't be tricked and induced to vote for the Democratic candidate for Governor through any such flimsy nonsense as is being dished out to you about County Option, but stand by the Republican party in its candidate for Governor and vote for William E. Lee, who will be elected by twenty-five thousand majority. Sincerely, W. T. Francis. TO THE CITIZENS AND TAXPAYERS OF THE CITY OF ST. PAUL: I am one among eight candidates nominated June 16th in the primaries for which I thank each and every one of my supporters for having assisted me to a successful victory for the nomination. Hoping my friends and acquaintances will be able to extend a helping hand to a true and faithful fellow-servant, always in the ranks for good and economical government, I appeal to every fair-minded citizen and economical person me a show, and I feel fully convinced that there are enough voters in this city of life that minded men to elect me as one of the County Commissioners on Nov. 3rd, and if elected, I assure you that none of you shall have reason to feel disappointed in having supported me. I have resided in this city since 1873 and cast my first vote, in 1874 and never have failed to cast my vote since, both in the primaries and in elections. I have been a close observer and steward of government ever since,—both city and state, and national, and if elected I would choose your confidence. I believe in economy of expenditures of the people's money so as to get a dollar's worth of returns for every dollar expended. I believe in promoting the continuation of good and permanent road building of our highways, which sentiment has grown state and nation-wide within the last decade, and adds to business coming to the city and hence to the cost of the necessaries of life. During the campaign of 1912, when our honored and esteemed ex-mayor, Robert A. Smith, ran for County Commissioner, it was stated that sympathy would elect him, and he was one of the four elected, with myself on the same ballot and close up to the winners. Now, at this time, if there is any sympathy in politics, which have so far failed to displease him, it should be extended to my candidacy, and you, the citizens and voters of this city, have my case before you, and whether your decision be influenced by sympathy, justice, or both, makes no difference to me. Your votes on Nov. 3rd will show and I shall have to be satisfied with whatever verdict you may render. Hoping to receive a favorable response in behalf of my candidacy, I am Your obedient servant, Charles A. Anderson. FOR RENT—Six-room modern flat Apply to C. L. Smith, 788 St. Anthony avenue.
