additional counsel fees in her fight in

The time is drawing near when all
the voters residing in this great city
will be able to march to the polls and
cast their ballots for their choice for
mayor of Chicago and from now until
that day arrives the people will be
engaged in fist fights, back-biting,
fouling, knocking down and dragging
out and having rough house time,
in general the fighting will become
so general that the voters will be un-
able to remember the names of the
three candidates seeking that Office
and high honor.
1t is the solemn duty of the voters
to carefully study the platform of the
various contending candidates and see
what they stand for, and if they are,
what they will do for the citizens OF
Chicago. Will the city hall still be
permitted to stand in the same old
place, and will the police officers in

PROTECTING MESSENGERS
By Chief of Police Morgan A. Collins

Never send a messenger carrying
money or securities from your place
Of business without a proper escort. -
If the messenger is on foot, always
have the escort follow at distance Of
not less than ten feet, where he can
observe the movements Of suspicious
persons.
Messengers should carry money or
securities in a pouch suspended from
the left shoulder, concealed under the
coat or garment.
Instruct escorts to change route
every day and to double back occa-
siona1ly to observe whether or not
they are being shadowed.
Payrolls should always be guarded
by an escort. Always remember that
the police department will furnish
suitable escort to protect money, Sc
curities or valuable property when re-
quested.
Escorts and guards should be pro-
hcient in the use Of firearms. If mex

many instances still be permitted to
over ride the - and the polit-
ical rights of the poor law-abiding peo-
pie at their sweet will? These are
some of the important questions that
the voters should roll over in their
minds before they blindly cast their
ballots for this, that, or the other man
for mayor Of Chicago.
Within the next few years millions
Of dollars will be expended for vast
Improvements in this city and we must
see to it that we must select some
and to conduct or manage the affairs
of the public who will see to it that
the citizens of Chicago will get an
even break or a square deal for their
money.
OF course no one doubts the honesty
Of these gentlemen seeking that high
Office and we honestly feel that at the
mistakes which they have made come
from their hearts and not from their

grace upon themselves and upon all

Mr.. Walter E. Bacon, president Of

at this time feels that DR.. John Dill
Robertson IS gaining strength all the
time for mayor of Chicago, that his
vote will cause the natives to set I'D
and take notice and that inasmuch as
he made a sane and level headed
commissioner of public health, and has
a splendid record as president Of the
Board Of Education Of Chicago, and
that he has made good as president OF
the West Park Board; that he is well
fitted to become mayor of Chicago.

WASHINGTON PREPARING FOR
HEALTH WEEK
preston News Service)

Washington, D. c., March 11.-An
educational campaign among the peo-
ole of this city will be conducted dur
ing the week of April $40, as this
citys observance of National Negro
Health Week, a movement started in
1914 by the late Booker T. Washing
ton.
The activities in Washington will be
conducted under the direction of the
National Negro Medical Association,
the officers Of the Medical School OF
Howard University, and civic organi-
zatons.
According to DR.. Algernon B. Jack
son, head Of the Howard University
Medical Department, health conditions
among colored people in Washington
are poorer than in most large cities.
The death rate here among them, he
contends, is three or four times higher
than the white death rate and even
above the mortality rate in other
places Lack Of education as to means
Of acquiring and maintaining health,
