THE TOPEKA PLAINDEALER. SOCIAL STATUS OF NEGRO Future. Captain Arch M. Wilson, of Fort Scott, Writes Entertainingly Upon Negro Future. Says Social Reforms Depend in a Great Measure Upon Our Women. The following able article is taken from the Ft. Scott Prairieland Magazine. It is from the pen of Captain A.M. Wilson, formerly of the Twenty Third Kansas, who is now a teacher in the Ft. Scott schools, and who has a broad reputation as an educator and thinker: It has been said that the only safe guide by which to judge is by the past. If this be true(and I am free to confess that to a certain extent it is, according to my observation), then the Negro race needs but to duplicate and, if possible, outdo the wonderful strides made during the time it has had any rating in sociology. It is acknowleged by all who have spent a moment's thought along this line that there is room for improvement. In order to make this improvement there must needs be a prosecution and a retrospection. Prospection for the purpose of establishing an idealty toward which to attain. A retrospection from which to extract data for comparison. Without well grounded hopes or ostentatious propects of outdoing our former record, our cause is hopeless. There is no standstill. no stagnation; all is progression or retrogression. The nations of the worth are constantly making new history, sociologically. That which is a social problem this year is solved, tried and becomes a fad next year, and in still another year is exploded and is said to possess the principal constituency of nothingness, or at best only an absolte fad. The longevity of most social reforms or innovations, however, depends in a great measure upon the female sex of our population. There are many peculiar social forms among our race that would be wholly out of place to mention in this connection, suffice it to say that along with the various forms of social life and conduct of the Caucasian, which the Negro has imbibed by constant association and imitation, there is yet a personality peculiar to the Negro in sociology that is not the property of any other race. It has and is cropping out to a certain extent, but its full development is a problem for future solution. The Negro really expects the great social fabric of the race to be woven of single threads, each with no connection or inter-dependence upon the other; the like has never been done and it is preposterous to believe that it will ever be done. Our confidence, patronage and co-mingling one with the other for social improvement must necessarily form the foundation for all future development. It is true in the social world exactly as it is true in the industrial or religious. The erroneous idea is rampant in the minds of many Afro-Americans that they can draw off from the remainder of their race, and occasional insignificant nods of the head, seemingly approbative slaps on the back, the familiar use of the given name by the dominating race, make them believe that they have established a little social kingdom under the protectorate of the "Great American One of the richest, one of the most philanthropic, one of the most Christian-like gentlemen in all the country is our Mr. O. J. Daylin. He says Honest Twin is all right Trans-Continental." But no greater mistake was ever made. Sociology was built, and is constantly sustained, in accordance with the old, time honored principle of "birds of a feather flock together" and "no bird can make a record for himself in borrowed plumage", he must be himself. So a race must build up the social fabric in its own individuality, associating with and backed by its own people; confiding in, and sacrificing for, its own—not some other race. When the Negro learns this confidence and inter-dependence on members of his own race then can he realize the importance of that term, "build thou more stately, oh my soul." A new chapter in sociology for the Negro is being opened by the renounced Booker T. Washington. The work of his industrial school is destined to prove that there is but one problem which by close analysis will be found to be a social one, although solved in an industrial way. It is our social intercourse with other races that engenders the deepest feeling of objection although it may show itself through the industries, but when we have attained a high standard of excellence in the trades and industries, few will stop to question our color, Booker T. Washington dined with the president under special invitation, because of what he was actually doing in the world because he was a distinguished representative of his race, because he dared to solve the problem in his own way. More such men with stamina and individuality will do more toward establishing a strong social standing for the Negro in the future than both religion and politics have done in the past. There is a peculiar compound formed from the mixture of religion and politics poured into the makeup of an unsophisticated race that creates a curious independence in them somewhat akin to the frivolous, no account feeling that whiskey produces in the Indian, and the sooner the Negro race learns to divorce the two or cease to consider them a factor in his social well being, the sooner will the problem be solved and the Negro be a sociological enmity. Religion is too sacred to be deeply interwoven with politics; politics too subtle to be considered on an equal footing with religion. They must be dealt with each in its seperate sphere, each a unit in itself. When these things are observed, when confidence is established, when race pride and self esteem takes precedence ever shiftlessness, aimlessness and worthlessness, then and not until then, will we be on the high road to social progress. . SPECIAL NIGHT ATTRACTION. The coming production of the "Last Days of Pompeii" is under the personal direction of Henry J. Pain, who is known on two continents as the "King of Pyrotechnists." "Pompeii as we shall soon have the pleasure of witnessing it, comes direct from the great Pain Amphitheatre at fashionable, ocean-swept Manhattan Beach, New York, and both Mr. Pain and his General manager, Mr. Thearle, assure the Commercial club that the production will equal in every respect those given in New York and London and other big cities. Henry J. Pain, the celebrated pyrotechnist, has produced the following gorgeous spectacles: "Last Days of Pompeii," "The Fall of Babylon," "Storming of Vicksburg," "Burning of Moscow," "Rome under Nero," "Japan in Flower and Flame" and now have their artists and designers in St. Pierre, Martinique, gathering data and historical facts TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING, SEPT. 12, 1902. for a new spectacle of the Martinique catastrophe by Mt.

The silence of the Afro American council at its national meeting at St. Paul on President Roosevelt's policy of appointments to office in the South is one of the most culpable derelictions of that body. This policy has been a flagrant fault of the new administration and the race looked to this organization as practically the only national organization it had which was formed to guard its political interests and voice its protests against this ignoring of the Negro in appointments. The failure of the council to do this was therefore a betrayal of trust. The scheme to give the federal offices in the South to white Democrats rather than to colored Republicans on the part of a Republican administration and to thus build up a white man's Republican party there is a policy which meets the opposition of the entire Negro race. Not only do the active politicians who lose their power and positions by it oppose this practice, but the main body of the Negro people, the conservative citizen class as well condemn and resent it. By this policy not only do the office-holders lose the money and the distinction which come with the offices, but the liberty of the race is given an additional and final blow. The right to hold office is a part of the right to vote and the suffrage without it is weak indeed. The Southerners have robbed the Negroes of their right to vote. They have done this in open violation of the constitution. The Negro has a right to expect that the national government in the hands of the Republicans, of that party to which the Negro has been loyal at every cost, will take positive steps to enforce the constitution and restore to the Negro his rights. When on the contrary this party allows the southerners to take from the Negro his vote and then excludes him from the offices, it but completes his disfranchisement. It puts the finishing touches on the South's work of eliminating the Negro as a political factor. Instead of causing the South to feel that in the national administration the Negro has a protector, the South is given ground for believing that the national government has abandoned the Negro to his fate. In fact, already this belief has resulted in the unrestrained oppression and persecution of the Negro. To retain Negroes as federal officeholders in the South and manly rather than cringing Neroes, withal, gives the white South to understand that the country condemns their disfranchising laws and intends to stand by the constitution. The question then is an important one to the race and cannot be ignored. The race is determined to fight this policy. All that Fortune, McGhee & Co. have done by their little trick of "springing" Booker Washington on the convention and putting him in charge is to discredit themselves and cause the council to misrepresent the Negro people. And the Negro people will see the more clearly the need of repudiating Booker Washington as a leader. We might have expected Prof. DuBois to have stood in the breach here, but like all the others who are trying to get into the band wagon of the Tuskegeean, he is no longer to be relied upon.—The Boston Guardian Winfield Freeman's Prejudice Overrides His Judgment. Mason S. Peters, Democrat, is Courteous and Gives all Men Fair Consideration. It is very seldom that we are called upon to resent an insult to this publication but when the occasion arises we do not swerve from it; but on the contrary we demonstrate our ability for self-preservation. We do not aspire, at any time or place, to dictate to our people, but we simply furuish an organ of the colored people; our field is the United States in general and the state of Kansas in particular. Anything in any community which interests the people is matter for this publication. But of all the men in public life, in Kansas City, Kas., metropolis of the State, there was one pin-headed candidate for a public office, who held us up to scorn and intimated that a reputable and legitimate journal was in the hold-up business. It was not really a hold-up he was afraid of, it was that he, a cheap man, was trying to ride into office and make a hurrah campaign on hot air and his Republicanism. This distinguished gentleman was no less a man than Winfield Feceman who is the Republican candidate for probate judge and when the Republicans get so hard up for timber as to put up a man who is so lacking of the common courtesies due from man to man, as this, he should be, as he will be, defeated at the polls. Of all the aspirants for county offices in Wyandotte county there is none who is better and more favorably known than Mason Peters, ex-congressman from the Second congressional district, who is a candidate for the office of probate judge, Wyandotte county. He is in all respects worthy of the office, both from a standpoint of services rendered the people of the county and as a man who does not hesitate to give recognition where the same is due and deserving. He is magnanimous in the highest degree in speaking of his opponent for the same position Winfield Freeman. He even spoke of him in the highest complimentary manner as a gentleman. We think that while Freeman may be a gentleman, and all that, he is not a man whom the large colored vote of the county could tie to. In our meeting, his deeply seated prejudice would creep out, as he would not meet us on the same level on a business proposition as he would a white man on the same business errand. Not so with Mason Peters, who not only in a cordial and entertaining manner met us half way but held a listening ear to what we had to say, etc. And we find among our leading men of Kansas City who have known him for the last thirty years, that they speak in the highest terms of his kindness and geniality towards our people. And to show that it is not mereenary motives that prompt us to resent the insult and prejudice demonstrated by Winfield Freeman; this is not a paid article, and we have never received from Mr. Peters either directly or indirectly one cent for subscription, write up, or anything else in connection with this publication. But we are for the welfare of the race before any political party and we are prepared to pour grape and cannister into the enemy even though he may be the Republican nominee of Wyandotte county. IN OTHER CITIES. ARGENTINE NOTES. Rufus Balthrop makes a splendid officer and is a terror to evil doers. L. L. Maxon, once a prominent, politician of these parts, but now a railroad contractor, was in the city last week. Our esteemed fellow citizen and mayor of this city, G. W. Green who also carries an ad in the PLAIN-DEALER, is a candidate for county treasurer of this county. Mr. Green, by his generous and kindly feeling toward the colored people, has gained a host of friends who, regardless of party affiliations, will stand by and support him at the coming elec tion. In doing so they will simply set the stamp of approval upon a man who stands by them politically and otherwise. As is well known, he always encourages colored enterprises and stands for the recognition of the Negro in politics. His app pointment of Rufus Balthrop on the police force of this city, and his well known encouragement of colored enterprises show better where he stands on these great questions which are of vital importance to the race than any words which we might write. This city has now got down to its normal condition since the Grand Lodge and Labor Day exercises. We notice through the daily papers the arrest of Percy Diggs, alias Delome, formerly of this city. Rev. W. L. Grant has left for Colorado where he will spend a few weeks for his health. The Wyandotte Select band furnished the music at Kerr's park; on Labor day. Col. Dr. E. Cornell, the Republican nominee for county treasurer, was an old soldier, having served 33 years in the U. S. Volunteers. He is now a prosperous farmer of Bonner Springs, and has a large acquaintance of friends throughout the county. E. W. Towner, the Republican nominee for county clerk, is an old soldier and served during the war in the 7th Cavalry of the Ohio volunteers, is active in fraternal circles as well as in labor organizations. He has always been prominent in Republican politics and has served as chairman of the Republican central committee and was twice elected as clerk of the District court. Hon. J. A. Gibson is the Republican nominee for county attorney. He is one of the leading members of the bar, and if elected will no doubt fill the office with signal ability and credit. HORTON NOTES. Rev. D. D. Cole, pastor of A.M.E. church, had his dollar rally Sunday. It was a success financially and he delivered very able sermons during the Sabbath. This closes his ministry here for this year. Should the Conference choose to send him back the ensuing year, we will extend to The Colored American is not sanguine as to the future of the Negro in politics. The tide that began to ebb when the unspeakable Hayes withdrew the troops from the southern states and sold out the results of the war in exchange for a dishonored presidency, reached the beginning of the end last week when the Republicans of North Carolina, with deliberate and studied contempt, threw the Negro overboard to shift for himself as best he may. To be sure, we have always protested against the theory that the colored man was the ward of any particular political party, but since he had chosen for rersons good and satisfactory to himself to cast his lot with the Republicans, and had, at their earnest solicitation, aided them for thirty years to whip their enemies into subjection, that party owes the Negro a special debt of gratitude which centuries of official recognition and remedial legislation will not more than repay. We have made enemies of the Democratic party, and have assisted in emphasizing the humiliation of our former masters—and to what purpose? After sitting for all these years at the foot of the cross, begging for what concessions the Republicans saw fit to offer, and bowing in thankful submission to them for the crumbs that were left when the feast was over, we are deserted and left to make such terms as we can with the powers of the section that for four years sought to throttle the free institutions of this republic. More than that, when a few of our brethren some decades ago forsaw the day of wrath that would come when one party should own the black man, body and soul, and cast him out when he had served the purpose of his owners, made overtures that miget lead to the diffusion of the colored vote along economic and material lines, and take the Negro question from the domain of politics we assaulted them, denounced them as traitors, and denied them places in churches and society—at the demand of the taskmasters who needed us as pawns on the political chessboard. We cannot understand why this propaganda of effacement should have its stronghold in such a progressive state as North Carolina, but the situation is there, and we might as well prepare to see the program carried out as outlined—with the example to be followed in Alabama, Louisiana, and eventually in Georgia, and all the states of the Southland where the lily whites "have us on the hip." In Georgia, where we are now strongest, we shall not give up without a struggle, but it is difficult to see what can be done to prevent a victory for the anti-Negro element of the party when they can very easily carry a contesting delegation to the next national convention and have their credentials stamped as "regular." Negro letter carriers, clerks and postmasters are being eliminated and their places are being filled with whites. Our suffrage is but farce in a the South, and in the North it is scarcely a factor except where the majorities are slim and uncertain. We are not potential in the conventions, county, state or national—not nearly so strong as we were ten years ago. The wise ones among us see the drift of events, but most of them are too dazed to direct the way to a solution that shall offer satisfactory results' What is to be done? What can we save from the wreckage of the storm that has just been accentuated by the repudiation of the Ne- NUMBER 35. Colored Society. UR ARK OF Safety E. E. Cooper, the Logical Editor of The Colored American Gives the Negro a Quiet Tip as to Wherein Lies His Future Success Read and Profit Therefrom. The Colored American is not a prophet—not even a lawyer—but, in our humble opinion, the Negro should stand by his guns as long as he has an inch of ground under him—but in the meantime, if he knows any trade, business or profession at which he can earn an honest livelihood, let him get to work just as soon as the Lord will let him. Social prejudice on the one hand and political ostracism on the other, are driving us together for mutual protection, and for self-preservation we must develop means to exchange our money and advantages among one another. There is no reason on earth why we should not have our own hotels, groceries, shoe stores, self-supporting newspapers, dry grods stores and what not. There is every reason why we should have them. With the education and means that we have, a good start can be made. Politics must be made a side issue and the Negro must get down to business in earnest. For a few years only can the unnatural proscription of the Negro citizenship be allowed to thrive, if we but husband our strength and gain more by drawing upon the opportunities that are ours for the grasping. In this fierce competition the fittest will survive. The Negro must prove himself fit or his lot will be that of all conquered peoples—the servants of the ruling classes, bondmen to the Lord of creation.—The Colored American, Washington. D. C. A GREAT MEETING. The great meeting of the Race men, under the auspices of the True Eleven, which was announced to be held at Topeka, September 22, 23 and 24, has been changed to Christmas. This is the wisdom of a council of Supreme officers, who met at Atchison, Saturday. They will then be able to make an astonishing report on the condition and status of our people generally. This worthy secret organization, which is working quietly and sincerely to get our men and women closer together—to put them on a better footing to withstand the ravages of the hour—will yet be effectively heard from. THE PLAINDEALER is glad to see our leading men taking a deeper interest in its expansion and high purpose. D. J. FREY. D. J. Frey of Osage City is doing a flourishing business in expert cleaning and dyeing establishment. If more of our young men would apply themselves to this trade they could find employment, all they could do. Mr. Frey is making himself felt in the community in which he lives. His trade is just as good as he could expect. His wife who is an industrious and intelligent lady, assists him in his business.

FRIDAY, SEPT. 19, 1902 A Suggcated Pemedy. At the meeting of the Board of Education last Monday night, it was unamiously decided to ask the electors of this city to vote a bond issue of $215000 for the purpose of enlarging our city schools to meet increasing demands. THE PLAINDEALER wants to get in on the ground floor of this propersition. We beleive in education as the safe-guard of this nation. Our people, along with the whites needs education along all lines. We need splendid buildings and all the accessories necessary for a modern school equipment. But at the same time we beleive the Board of Education should put common sense above prejudice. In the matter of the Douglass School employees out in Lowman Hill, the Board could save the city at least $2500 per year by sending the colored children to the Lowman Hill where there is ample room for accommodation and splendid facilities for educating the young. There the board has a big opportunity to show the public that common horse-sense is as necessary in administering public affairs as pandering to silly sentimentations. The board can save to the citizens the expenses of two teachers, a janitor and heating and lighting of another building. Let the Board close up this miniature Phillipine Mission and cut off this expense. This will go a long way towards paying interest on a $215000 bond issue. This is no joke. For God's sake try and save some money, as well as create and foster race prejudice. Two New Papers. "Push" and "The Observer" are the name's of two new Kansas publications received at this office this week. One is a collection of the wit and wisdom of Kansas editors, profusely illustrated by the facile pen of Albert Reid. While the Observer is an Oklahoma exotis with the hot blood of Democracy coursing through its veins. Both are fine samples of Kansas journalistic ability and so here's to 'em. The President in Topeka Hon. Theodore Roosevelt, president U. S. A. will visit Topeka September 28 and remain over Sunday. It is a matter of regret that the parties having in charge the matter of entertaining the distinguished visitor, should have entirely overlooked the Negro-.

Three Great Schools Opened. This week, three great schools devoted to the industrial and literary training of Negro children were opened. It is gratifyiny to note the deep interest manifested by our people in the success of this class of educational institutions. Reports received from the Lincoln Institute at Jefferson City, Mo., the Western University of Quindaro, and the Topeka Industrial Institute of Topeka, shows increased attendance over last year. New teachers have been employed and the promise of more substantial results. There is no excuse for the failure of our young boys and girls receiving practical education. We are not believers in industrial education to the exclusion of proper literary training. The men in charge of these schools are gentlemen of high character and splendid literary attainment.
