By J. Silas Harris. For years after the establishment of the federal union, the "Old Dominion" (Virginia) swayed the political fortunes of the young republic, and thereby won the undisputed title, "Mother of Presidents." The surrender of Lee at Appomattox sounded the death knell of human slavery and the supremacy of Virginia in national affairs. Since then, other DR. M. H.

Bell phone Clifton 144. states, New York, Massachusetts, Ohio, Indiana, Pennsylvania and Illinois have struggled, with varying fortunes, for leadership. And Now Missouri Is Demanding a Hearing at the Bar of Public Opinion. Tom Benton's "Thirty Years in the United States Senate," the famous (infamous) Dred Scott Decision, and the Missouri Compromise are a trinity of events by which the "show me state" is best known. Beyond being a "dumping ground" for mediocre politicians from Kentucky, Imperial Missouri has no claim to a niche in the "Hall of Fame." After a sleep of more than a hundred years, the "hill billies" of Old Missouri have awakened to the fact, that in spite of her wonderful resources, their beloved state is far behind most of the progressive Commonwealths of the Union; and, just now, they are seeking the reasons therefor. The records of school, politics, church, and of manifold industrial activities are being carefully searched and startling revelations are imminent. Demand to see the "books" have been frequently made during the past fifty years, but only once, during that time, did we get a glimpse of them and then the Democratic sun was shining so brightly, in our eyes, making it impossible for us to read. But the report has gone out, and many believe it, that attacks upon the state treasury, in the name of the law, have been more flagrant than were the plunderings of the treasury of New York by the infamous tweed "ring" a generation ago. When a man grows tired of being robbed, no matter who the robber may be, he is going to "holler," and fight too, to protect his own. And this is just what's going to happen to the great army of Democratic officials, who have mismanaged the affairs of the state, with but little or no interruption, since her admission into the Union. Missouri is just passing her first hundred mile post, and for once the eyes of the whole Nation are centered upon her. Will she step forward and take rank with Indiana, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Illinois and Kansas, or will she continue to lag in the rear? Possessed of untold millions of mineral and agricultural wealth, her public school system is a joke when compared with those of Kansas, Illinois, and Iowa, and the stench of her rotten political machinery smells to Heaven; her churches have been cow --- The Kansas City Sun R 26. Entered as second-class matter. August — 1908, at the postoffice at Kansas City, Mo., under the act of March 3, 1879. GRO H BUSINESS MEN N ise, Colorado HOLL EN NOON-D lored M NEGRO LEADERSHIP A JOKE. The Negroes of this city are badly in need of intelligent, firm and courteous leadership that is able to advise our people in the things to politically for the best interests of the race. In the recent Republican City Convention a sorry spectacle was presented by our representatives who not only seemed unable to demonstrate what they were sent there for but NOT ONE lifted his voice during the entire convention to demand recognition of our racial group. The Eighth Ward with forty-six Negroes and fourteen white delegates was the one ward to which the Negroes of the city looked to secure representation for us on the ticket but the majority of the 46 were as dumb as oysters white one or two "Uncle Tom" Negroes kept themselves busy carrying "news" to a few cheap white men who posed as leaders of the so-called Anti-Boss movement. Be it said to the credit of a few of the Colored men on the delegation they insisted on nominating a Negro but the "Uncle Tom" and "Old Black Joe" Negroes kept them from getting action. It is regrettable that Wm. C. Hueston who is generally recognized as the leader of our group in this ward was absent because we believe he would have stood up for his people, but even Tom Marks for whom the Negroes fought so gallantly primary day got "cold feet" and urged the Negroes not to nominate a candidate. The Sun is for the Negro before every other political consideration and firmly believes that due to cowardly leadership the race has gone back ten years in its political development in this city. The German Republican was recognized, the Irish Republican was recognized, the Swedish Republican was recognized, and even the Italian Republican (not 500 of whom vote the republican ticket) was recognized but the Negro Republican, the most loyal of them all was not given even a passing notice. Until the race gets rid of its time serving, job hunting, "white folks Nigger" it will never get anywhere politically in Kansas City. The Sun has no grievance or complaint against Lieut. J. Pierce Kane, the splendid young white man and ex-soldier who received the nomination in the Eighth Ward—(It believes he is the best white man who could have been nominated)—but it still believes the Negroes threw away an opportunity that will not come again soon. Jess Mason a well known sporting man on Twelfth street near Vine was held up by a Negro who had been a frequent visitor at his club, last Monday and robbed of $475.00 which he had counted preparatory to sending to the bank. Mr. Mason had been feeding the Negro who robbed him all the winter allowing him to do light chores around his place and says he'll never be caught napping again by another holdup man. Mrs. Ada Wells, wife of Officer Bush Wells of 1806 East 12th street died last Thursday following an operation and the funeral services were held from Ebenezer A. M. E. church, Rev. W. T. Osborne officiated. The floral tributes were the largest, most beautiful as well as numerous seen at a funeral recently. Mrs. Wells had many friends who with her husband will mourn her passing.

But the hour of reckoning is at hand. The people will no longer be led by that "gang of old fossils (Democrats), who are now clamoring for a new lease of life. Just a few years ago they fought, bled and died to perpetuate human slavery; falling; they bent every energy to crush and humiliate the enfranchised freedmen, and their hellish work has gone on, uninterrupted, from that hour until the present day. The electoral vote of Missouri, in the coming election, may decide the Presidency, and, so evenly are the two political parties divided, that which way her pendulum will swing is difficult to determine at this time. The Democrats, startled at the trend of sentiment toward the Republican party, and fearing for their political lives, are turning to the once abused and desplied Negro (nigger), pleading for assistance at the polls next November. Great God, what a spectacle? Pat Harrison of Missouri, in the Senate, and Thomas Loony Blanton, of Texas, in the house, pouring out their vials of wrath upon the defenseless head of the Negro, while the Democratic State Committee of Missouri, is on bended knees, pleading with the "mother in black" to save the party from political annihilation. And now is the Negro's day and opportunity. He holds the balance of political power. Will he use it in the interest of that party which stands for Progress and Prosperity or will he cast his lot with the party of inaction, of stagnation, of broken promises, and of incompetency. The Negro now has an opportunity to prove his right to citizenship by lifting Missouri out of the mire, slime and filth in which she has been wallowing for a century and place her among the leaders in the sisterhood of states. The Democratic platform will not contain a single line against Jim Crowing, lynching, disfranchisement, segregation, and other hellish products of that party, to retard the progress of the Negro and the Nation. The Republicans of Missouri will nominate a ticket of clean capable men, who will, if elected, give the state an administration that will prove a blessing to a long suffering people. Will the Negro do his duty? Carry Away Safe Containing $4,500. Four armed Negroes went to the home of Robert Savington, well known about town, 807 Jefferson street. Tuesday night of last week and carried away an iron safe containing between $1,200 and $1,500 in cash and jewelry valued at $3,000. Savington is the owner of a restaurant next door to the Jefferson hotel. Savington told the police that the robbers carried the small iron safe to a motor truck outside and drove away. Among articles taken were two gold watches, a diamond ring with a cluster of 15 stones, and several stick pins. NOTICE.

"Black Satin," Dangerous Criminal, Killed by Man She Theatened. The end of the crime career of Blanche Green, 921 East Fourth street, a Negro woman known to the police as "Black Satin," the most dangerous Negro woman in Kansas City's underworld, came early yesterday morning when she was shot and killed by a Negro in an underworld dive at 601 Harrison street. "Black Satin" is credited by the police with killing two men and participating in many shooting and cutting affrays. The shooting was the outcome of a quarrel between "Black Satin" and Samuel Butler, which started several months ago when Butler, an exconvict, had her arrested. She charged him with being a "stool pigeon" for the police and threatened to kill him in court. The underworld was stirred again when she threatened to kill Butler before night fall. Yesterday morning in the Negro den, used openly as a gambling and dance hall, "Black Satin" and Butler met. A fight was started. "Black Satin" reached to her bosom for a revolver which she always carried. Butler seized her and wrested the pistol from her and fired. He then ran out of the door, escaping. Sergt. Harry Boyle and a squad of patrolmen arrested thirteen Negroes, men and women frequenters. ST. JOSEPH, MISSOURI. Rev. C. H. Blacksher, pastor of Holsey chapel, C. M. E. Church, has gone to Chicago.

I have reports from the various instructors with whom you worked and they all speak of your exceptional talent, your unbounded energy and enthusiasm and the fine spirit with which you took up every part of the work. From the conversations which I had with you I knew that you would carry your enthusiasm and energy into your work as a teacher and by this means cause your students to look upon the subject of music as you look upon it. The knowledge which you had when you came here and your past experience made you without doubt the most able student in music in the summer school. We were proud to have you with us and only hope that you felt repaid for the time you spent with us. At any time you see fit to return here for advanced work we shall be glad to have you. We have two of your students who seem thoroughly in earnest and in a measure have brought your enthusiasm and energy. With kindest regards I am. NEGRO ROBBED OF $1669.00 NEGRO ROBBED OF $1699.00.

THE GOVERNMENT CHALLENGED But it was the government of Kentucky that the mob attacked when they undertook to take the Negro away from Kentucky authorities, and by that act they placed themselves in the position of insurrectionists, challenging the authority of their government. When men do that, they ought to know they take their lives into their own hands, and have no redress if they come to grief. (Washington Cor. Birmingham Age-Herald) Constitutional amendments have become so exceedingly popular that every man seeking redress comes to congress demanding one. There must be a federal statute against lynching. George W. Cook, a professor at Howard University, representing the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, says so. He told the house judiciary committee that if such a law is not possible of creation under the constitution, the constitution should be changed—amended. N. H. Thomas, an erudite Negro thrilled the committee by his references to the Washington race riots last July, and swore that if the government did not devise means of stamping out lynching the Colored people "would be forced to fight for their rights." Arthur B. Spingarn, a captain in the service declared to the committee that there were $2 lynchings last year, twelve men having been burned at the stake. "Amend the Constitution," they urged in union. When handicaps in that direction were cited, they again exclaimed: "The Constitution has been amended and may again be amended." The republican membership of the committee gave the spokesman careful attention. SOCIAL CLUB their annual BK'S DANCE 131 Lydia Avenue LING, MARCH 17, 1920 Good Music. and stay late.

Smith the popular pioneer druggist was held up in his drug store the famous "Busy Drug Store" 18th and Tracy last Thursday evening by two Negroes who rified both cash registers securing some $60.00 but molested none of the stock; keeping Dr. Smith covered with a revolver, they backed out of the door and disappeared as quickly as they had come.

Prompt and accurate service will be the unbroken rule at this store. The phones are Bell, Clifton 4015 and Home, Benton 1093. BLACKEST PAGES OF HISTORY It is of course disgraceful that in a city of the size of Lexington and supposed orderliness, such riots as accompanied the trial of the Negro Loclett should be countenanced for a minute. But, due to the prompt action of Governor Morrow of Kentucky, a still greater disgrace—that a prisoner might have been forcibly taken from a court of justice—was averted. This country cannot be considered to have reached a really high state of civilization until such outbreaks of elemental passion and beasality as have been and are all too frequent are eliminated. It is voicing a common place say that the lynchings and attempted lynchings which occur to some extent all over the country, but more especially in the South, constitute some of the blackest pages of our national history and the most uncomfortable thought of all is that mob violence still seems far from extermination. CALM FIRMNESS OF POWER. (Louisville, Ky., Courier) The calm firmness of the state in asserting its power is a warning to others who might be tempted into acts of anarchy or violence. It says to them: "Gaze on this and beware!" Kentucky has set an example for the country. Its stand will have a moral effect of inestimable public value. In some minds falsely believed to be a land of tolerated law-breaking and bloodshed, the state now takes on a new look as a majestic champion of law and order. "Law and Order!" Be that the slogan for all and more and more will the people's government be vitalized into a thing to be respected and supported. ASK OMAHA ABOUT LEXINGTON, (Chicago, Ill., Herald-Amxnler) Ask any citizen of Omaha whether or not it would have been better to drive that mob back with rifles or to allow it to make headway, to conquer it at even the terrible cost in human life which was exacted in Lexington or to allow it to conquer the law. There will be but one answer. The law must be unheld. ```markdown ``` PRICE. 5c.

Faith is the supreme pinnacle to which every person should try to attain. It is a firm adherence to truth or trust. It is the stepping stone to higher things. It had as its stauchn demonstrator job. It has now a man who in his lecture to the Theologs at Western Uneiversity illustrated or portrayed the lack of faith in the ministerial life. "He pictured as proof the stepping aside of the ministers into the worldly things to support the churches. That the business man had more faith in his undertaking, than the ministers in the God whom they claim commissioned them to do His bidding, in the example of the business man sticking to his laid out plan, while the other seeking worldly things to support the Church that God would never permit to go to desolation." Coming from a layman and a business man and defying not only disciples but apostles as well, and the acknowledged truth of the authentic facts from C. A. Franklin. "Faith then is the element most needed in Saint and Sinner, but the element least sought." There is needed then more apostles to educate the masses up to higher standards of living and they can only do this by having the same amount of Faith exercised by Job, Moses, Elisha and others.

Mattjoy is a real leader of his people who believe in standing for the race first was demonstrated at the Republican Convention when he offered to pledge himself and friends to assist in the election of a Negro Alderman if one should have been nominated. And yet Mr. Mattjoy is a stalwart Democrat and has the confidence and esteem of the foremost leaders of that political organization. Mr. Mattjoy believes as does every fair-minded white man, Republican or Democrat that if the Negro is to work out his salvation it must come from within and not without the race. In every clivic movement and in every drive for the benefit of our Institutions Mr. Mattjoy has been in the front ranks working unceasingly and there are dozens of poor widows and orphan children who call his name blessed for the many kind and noble deeds he has done in relieving suffering and distress. Mr. Mattjoy allowed us to look at the following letters which indicate the confidence reposed in him by prominent men in the State: February 28, 1920. Hon. J. J Mattjoy, Kansas City, Mo. Dear Friend: I thank you very much for your thoughtfulness in sending me a copy of the Kansas City Sun of Saturday, February 21st, which I have read with a great deal of interest. I desire to congratulate the Negro race upon the fact that many of them are now voting the Democratic ticket and believe they will continue to do so in increasing numbers. I think the day has come when the Negro will intelligently divide his vote between the different political organizations. In that way he is more apt to receive consideration at the hands of each of the great parties. Having been born and reared in the south, I have always felt I understood the Negro race and am convinced there are wonderful possibilities for the Negro in Missouri, and that there should be a hearty spirit of co-operation and good feeling between the whites and the blacks. During the war I felt the need of this co-operation in order that the Negroes might take a more active part in war work. Therefore, I created the Negro Industrial Commission and appointed numerous Negroes on same. They did a remarkable work such as increasing farm production, stimulating subscriptions to war work and the sale of bonds and in many ways reaching the Negro people through this Commission who would not have been reached in any other way. I hope to be able to re-create this Commission under legislative act before long and also to start a Negro experimental farm under the direction of the State Board of Agriculture. Faithfully yours. FREDERICK D. GARDNER, Governor While in Kansas City recently and in the Third Congressional District during the recent campaign, I heard much of you and your activities in behalf of the Democratic party in Kansas City. I want to congratulate the Democrats of Kansas City upon you being a resident of their city and upon your activity in their behalf. I regret very much that you did not stay in St. Louis, but St. Louis' loss is Kansas City's gain. I hasten to congratulate you also. If I can be of any service to you here, please command me. Please remember me also to Dr. Smith May your shadow never grow less. Yours sincerely, LAWRENCE McDANIEL Circuit Attorney. GETTING THE WORLD TOLD.

Mr. Patrick was one of the handsomest men in this city, was always the picture of sartorial elegance and was noted for his congeniality and pleasant disposition at all times.

Saturday, March 20th SERIAL NIGHT e No. 9--Adventures of tures of Ruth Thrilling Western Comedy --- Page Six THEKANSASCITYSUN PUBLISHED WEEKLY All communications should be addressed to the Kansas City Sun, 1802 E. 18th St. EDITORIALS. The Editor is in receipt of a letter from his old friend Ben O. McRay of St. Paul, Minn., and he sends best regards to all of his old friends. The opening of the new Spotless kitchen at 1701 E. 12th street was a distinct event in this city last week and with that rare taste and tireless energy of the popular proprietor Mr. Martin Young, it is easily the most beautiful place of its kind in the City. It was crowded to the doors last Saturday and Sunday and the business has had remarkable growth ever since the opening. A SPLENDID START The Memorial to the Board of Education of this city from the various organizations headed by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored people is decidedly a step in the right direction and the Sun will take pleasure in giving the text in full in its issue of next week. What ever we want, we must contend for and only by persistent and honorable agitation can we hope to achieve results. Again we say congratulations The Associated Negro Press celebrated its first anniversary this week and it requires no stretch of imagination to say that it has gloriously filled a long felt want in the make up of the Negro publications of this country. Its articles have not only given tone and dignity to the Negro press but it has furnished sane, sensible and impressive editorials which have done much to create favorable sentiment for the race. When we who have enjoyed its service look back over the splendid assistance and en couragement it has given during the year just closed we are made to wonder how we got along at all without its painstaking service. More power to the Associated Negro Press, may it soon become to our racial group what the Associated Press is to the other race. Baltimore, Md.—When it comes to upstanding, unquestioned propaganda of justice, a young white woman signs herself "Miss Critical Observer" put the following story in the right place. The Daily Baltimore, American. Says "Miss Observer". American white women for decades have been blindfolded and duped as to the colored man. The Colored man has been held up before our eyes as a lustful and vicious creature. As a consequence, great masses of us, through lack of individual experience, and because of ignorance of literature and statistics, bearing on the truth of the case, have come to believe the unwarranted and unfounded charge against the Colored man as a class. But, the undeniable rock-bottom truth is that Negro men are no more prone to commit heinous crimes against women than are other men. If there be any who doubt the truth of this statement let them make a comparative study of the statistics bearing on lecherous crimes against women and their doubts will vanish. The result of the comparison will be in favor of the Colored man. If I were to publish the figures I have on my desk I would startle my readers. Colored men in other countries such as Canada, Central America, South America, West Indies and Africa are not pictured as the arch assaultants of women. In fact, it is said that the attitude of the native African toward women is superior in point of decency to that of men in the most highly cultured countries. When I am told that the Colored man is so lustfully inclined, I ask why it is that there are 4,000,000 mulattoes in the United States and that this num ber yearly increases. White men tremble before this question. They know they are responsible. Yet many of them are always telling us women about "Negro brutes" and "Negro rapists." In the South, my native home, where there is the loudest cry about "race separation and white purity" the greatest mingling of white men and colored women takes place. The South is the garden spot of mulattoes. It must not be assumed that white women will always remain ignorant of and indifferent to this fact. Many of us are wide awake and are thinking although only a few of us dare to express ourselves publicly on this question. Why is there little or no effort to widen the gap between the white man and the colored woman? Why are our men not punished for intimate relations with Colored women? No! This would interfere with white men's social freedom. Yet they arrogate unto themselves the role of supreme dictator as to the race or color of men with whom we must or must not mingle, while they will brook no interference as to the race or color of women with whom they mingle and become intimate. Washington, D. C., March 8, 1920. Special to the Kansas City Sun. Upon the recommendation of the Negro National Educational Congress President Wilson has appointed Miss Susie A. Blackwell a Notary Public for the District of Columbia. This is the first Negro girl to be named for such a position by the present administration.

No indeed. —That if "Boss-busting" is to be the fashion this year, the Star ought to get it in the neck, comin' and gwine. —That a certain piece of property near the belt line had a perfectly good fence all around it last Fall. Now there are only three or four isolated pickets left. What became of it? —That the man in public life who can't stand honest criticism had better ask the angels to take him home to glory because that's the only place where he's safe from criticism. —That the Biblical version is: "Do unto others even as you would they should do unto you," but the political version seems to be; Do others before you get a chance to do you. —That the only man who seems to be able to stop some people from boasting about their ENORMOUS incomes is the Income-Tax receiver. Shut your mouth. —That if we all could see our short-comings as easily as we see our neighbor's and profit by doing as we say our neighbors should do it would not be long before this old world would be a much better place to live in. —That the Biblical writer must have had in mind some of these 12th street dudes when he said: "They toll not, neither do they spin; yet Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these." —That the third Annual Fashion Show of the Wheatley-Provident Auxiliary is going to be a record-breaker both from a financial standpoint and in the variety and beauty of costumes shown. --- That the man or woman of our race who reads white papers exclusively are enemies to their own children Every Colored home should have several Negro newspapers coming to them regularly regardless as to how insignificant You may think they are. —That the member of our race who is giving employment to our own people is doing much towards helping in the task of "toning up" our citizenship "Wind Jammers" who talk much and do little or nothing to advance our standard as citizens are mill-stones about our necks and should be dealt with accordingly. —That a certain preacher took for his text: "Touch not the wine when it is red," when in the midst of his sermon a small slip of paper dropped out of his pocket. One of the brothers who pickled it up, upon looking it over, discovered that it was a whiskey prescription. After the sermon the preacher and the brother almost clashed over who had the right to it.

Terms Moderate Diplomas Given Write Today for Further Information THE PERISCOPE It would be idle to deny that the American Negro has serious grievances and special problems that challenge the attention of friends of justice and believers in the principle of equal opportunity. The solution of these problems will not be facilitated, of course, by the propaganda of race hatred. For that reason it is impossible to command too highly the spirit of the convention of the Lincoln League of America, which has been in session in this city. Education and patience rather than recrimination and denunciation, were the remedies earnestly favored by the speakers at this notable assembly of representatives of the Negro race in this country. Lynching, disfranchisement in violation of law and various forms of discrimination were among the questions discussed, but the prevailing note was one of faith in American institutions and the American instinct of fair play. The remarkable advance of the American Negro since emancipation was gladly recognized, and in this advance was discerned the strongest pledge of further progress. The barbarous lynch law tradition dies hard, but such lessons as the Lexington affair should be of some avail. The Kentucky officials who upheld the law so resourcefully, courageously and successfully, regardless of the risk of getting themselves disliked by some of their neighbors, are entitled to the respectful compliments of all Americans who believe in law and abhor mob violence. Ohio has reason to envy her neighbor the excellent grade of law enforcement she enjoys We want a few more news boys and girls.

LYNCHING THE SOUL. (By Wm. Pickens) "The politician in Washington attempts to lynch the Negro civilly and politically; the man at home in Texas attempts to lynch him with a rope. The one lynches him in soul, the other in body. If where the Negro is concerned, the senator respects no law, human or divine, as one of them said, then the lynching of the Negro is the most logical thing in the country." But the organized authorities cannot surrender to the mob. They must stand their ground and public sentiment must uphold and support them, for in the other alternative it would not be one or a half dozen lives that would die but the social order itself and the lives of the multitudes dependent upon the social order must pay the price.

Mobs, both Southern and Northern, have been dealt with in two gentle a fashion. Hoodlums must be made to feel the strong right arm of the law. Those who do not respect law must be forced to fear it. FIRE TO TO "KILL." (Chattanooga, Tenn., Times) The mob, is afraid of a resolute officer with a force of resolute men armed with guns that when fire will be fired to "kill." Every other method has been tried to prevent mob violence, and has failed, but this method must succeed or else we are rushing surely into mobocracy. We are quite sure that mobs will at least be more circumspect than they have hitherto been in Kentucky as a result of this story from Lexington of official courage and determination. S. W.
