Plaindealer

THE TOPEKA PLAINDEALER. Historical Society State House VOLUME V. An Interesting Page from the Life of General Robert Small, One of the Most Widely Known and Well-to-do Negroes in the Whole South. He Stole a Vessel. From the Detroit Free Press. Perhaps the only man, white or black, who ever stole a vessel is Gener al Robert Smalls, of Beaufort, S. C., one of the most influential and well-to-do colored men in the Southern states. General Smalls had an idea that the Federal fleet needed the transport Planter of the Southern Confederacy, and he watched his chance and landed the vessel safe in the Union lines. The Planter was the special dispatch boat of General Ripley, the Confederate post commander at Charleston, S. C., and Robert Smalls was serving in the capacity of wheelman, but was virtually the pilot. In those days no negro could be pilot in Southern waters, but Smalls really did the work of a pilot, and it was while serving in this capacity that he found his chance to steal the transport. During a recent visit to the home of General Smalls at Beaufort—a home built on the very ground where he was born a slave—he talked interestingly of his steal, and said that even yet he felt creepy sensations playing up and down his backbone when he thought of the narrow chances he with death. "I sometimes wonder," said General Smalls," if it can really be true that I am here, under my own vine and fig tree, after taking the chances I did with the Planter, but I know that I am here, and I know, too, that I hope to end my days right here where I was born. I will come pretty near remaining here until I pass to the beyond, if laws are not enacted which will it make it possible for a colored man to live in the state. I love the state of my nativity, but it's an awful gloomy outlook here sometimes for the colored race. "But you ask me about the taking of the Planter. We had been engaged in May, 1863, in removing guns from Cole's island to James island, and had returned to Charleston on the evening of the 12th. The officers all went ashore, leaving myself and seven other colored men on board. I determined to make an effort to carry out my plans to steal the transport, and to the seven men I unfolded my intentions. Five of them willingly agreed to stand by me, but the other two showed the white feather and went ashore. As quickly as possible we got up steam, and at about 2 o'clock in the morning of the 13th—unlucky, too—we moved off from the dock and steamed up to North Atlantic wharf, where my wife, two children, with three other men and four women, embarked with me. "As we passed Fort Johnson I blew the usual signal, got the return signal, and steamed on down the bay. Approaching Fort Sumner, I put on a large straw hat, which Captain Relay, of the Planter, usually wore, and pulling it well over my face, I leaned out of the window of the pilot house and gave the signal, receiving 'All right' in return; I had been sized up as Captain Relay, and I suppose they thought that General Ripley was on board going on a tour of inspection. "That was about the only time I ever impersonated a white man, and I did it successfully, too. The transport had successfully passed beyond Sumter's guns before anything wrong was sus- pected. When they saw that the Planter was making for the Federal lines they signaled to stop us, but I managed to land safely in the enemy's—my frienda'—lines before anything could be done, though the Federal fleet came near firing into the transport before I got the flag of truce up and fung to the breeze. Captain Nicholson, of the boat Onward, came on board the Planter, and I told him what I had done, and turned the vessel over to him. Of course, I was warmly received and highly congratulated by all the officers. But, my, my! My hide would not have held shucks if I had been caught before I got the Planter to the Federal fleet. "I continued to act as pilot for the Planter and the Crusader, and as blockading pilot between Charleston and Beaufort, and it was my pleasure to assist in removing torpedoes from the rivers near the coast which I had ben forced to aid in putting in. Even while I was at work putting in these torpedies I had determined that I would help remove them. While engaged as pilot of the two vessels we had several fights and narrow escapes, but Old Master seemed to be on our side. "On December 1, 1863, I was bringing the Planter from Folly island to Morris Island with supplies, and when midway through the narrow creek the enemy's batteries on James island—known as Secessionville—opened fire upon her. Captain Nicholson, of the Planter, deserted her and sought safety in a coal bunker. There was nothing for mee to do save take charge, and I brought her safe from under fire and out of danger. For this act General Gilmore, the commander of the department of the South, who was then on Morris Island, and was a witness, ordered the immediate discharge of Captain Nicholson, and I was placed in command of the Planter as captain. That is the manner in which I was made captain, and not for bringing the Planter out of the Charleston harbor, as has been erroneously stated. It was because I rescued the Planter the second time. "At the close of the war, in 1866, I took the transport to Baltimore, where she went out of commission on the 18th day of September of the same year. I was then discharged and came home to Beaufort and entered the mercantile business. I had saved my money and was fairly successful in business, and have always been. I am proud of the fact that I live in a dwelling built on the very ground where I was born. The old homestead and its surroundings are mine, and I shall leave it for my children to enjoy. "This is called the 'Black Belt,' but it is one of the garden spots of the world, and when the negro is given his every right there will no place under the sun more suitable for him as a home. By his very nature he is suited for the climate, and here he can live and prosper. There is not the least danger of anyone starving if he will only work, and even those who do not like to exercise their muscle can live easily, for there is an abundance of sea food—fish, oysters, crabs, clams, terraplin, and all such—and the woods are full of game and the rice fields bleck with the julice reed birds—thicker than sinners at a camp meeting. "But, speaking seriously, all under the heavens that the black man asks is fair and just treatment—the same laws to govern both races. But that is just what we do not get, and it looks like the more the question is agitated the worse the situation gets for the TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING, OCT. 23, 1903. negro, no matter how manfully and intelligently he may contend for his rights. If too much is imposed on the negro by the dominant race, there will be nothing left for him to do in this state but to pack his little duds and get out. That the negro is needed in the cotton fields, the rice plantation, in the phosphate mines, and such works, there can be no question. No one but the negro can do this work—work which requires muscle and endurance. The negro is the bone and sinew of this state, and there is no dodging that fact. Treat him right and he is the happiest, best natured, most easily satisfied laborer in the world. He is quick to detect wrongdoing, and then it is that his worst nature comes to front. The sensible people of South Carolina have no idea of letting the negro depart from it. They know a good thing when they see it, and they that as a laborer the negro has no equal." General Smalls was born a slave in 1839. After the war he became prominent in politics, and has occupied many positions of honor. Taking an active part in the state militia many years, he attained the rank of major general. He has served in both branches of the South Carolina legislature, in two constitutional conventions, and was a member of congress from 1875 to 1887. He has also been a delegate to every Republican convention since reconstruction, save two. DENVER. COLO. Mesdames Eva Joyce Jeckson and E. B. Butler of Colorado Springs, were delegates in attendance at the W. C. T. U. convention, which met in the city this week. Miss Edith De Priest, a piece of R. R. De Priest, passed through the city last week enroute to Oregon to assume the duties of teacher in an Indian school. Mr. and Mrs. Silas Johnson entertained at dinner Tuesday in honor of Mrs. Murphy of Danville, Ky. Six courses were served as only Mrs. Johnson can serve. Misa Mabel Walker, who has been visiting friends in the city for several weeks, returned to her home in Tacoma, Wash. Rev. Helm visited Colorado Springs, Pueblo- and Canon City during the week. Rev. J. E. Ford returned home Wednesday from Philadelphia where he attended the National Baptist Convention. Charlie Jackson of Manual foot ball fame, is on the Colorado College team. Little Frankie, the infant son of Rev. and Mrs. J. F. Peck, died Monday morning. The funeral was preached Tuesday. Rev. Park accompanied the remains to Kansas City for interment. Miss Ada Hill, who has begun visiting relatives in Ohio and Virginia the past year, returned home Monday. Mr. Walter Allison, who has been enjoying the east for the past year and a half, returned home Thursday. Mrs. S. W. Thompson and children of Chicago arrived in the city last Saturday. Mrs. R. R. De Priest entertained Saturday afternoon in honor of Mrs. Ida Joyce Jackson of Colorado Springs. Those who enjoyed the hospitality of the admirable hostess were: Meedames Bondurant, Travers, Overton, McCullough, Freeman, Tarbet, Rivers, Morris, Chinn, Allison, Savage, Smith, Smithea, Lewis, and Miss Blanche Smith. Even the South Carolina newspapers, to their credit, do not dissent from the country's verdict in the Tillman case; which is, as expressed by one paper, that South Carolina has herself been convicted of barbarism. The Columbia States denounces the jury verdict as a purchased verdict, and the Charleston News and Courler discusses it as a crime upon South Carolina. But the worst of it is that by the country at large the jury was expected to return just the verdict it did return. Kentucky Heathens Hate to Be Told of Their Black Kin Folks. THEY WANT TO HANG VIS! Invite The Plaindealer Manager to Adorn the End of a Rope--The Newspapers of That State are Edited by a Gang of Heathens The clippings below show that The Plaindealer man to be in demand in Kentucky, but as yet, we are undecided as to what to do in reference to visiting a country where people have no respect for the Bible or hymn book. We will say to The Bourbon News of Paris, Kentucky, that we are sorry it did not reproduce the article which it claimed would make a true Kentuckian's blood boil. If we can see at all, these atrocities committed upon col-colored people, News' Kentucky Rebel, ored people, by the News' Kentucky Rebel, Sah, will make any true American's blood boil, and we think it would be wise for this gentleman to place himself on ice and cool his blood so that he can respect the rights of other people. They would like to have us over night to stretch hemp. This is what retards tre progress of Kentucky today, the disrespect for law and order. People with money, brains and love of right will not live nor invest their money and time where such a class of people predominate. No, thanks, we care not to remain overnight in that heathen land, and, if we keep our present mind, will hardly pass that way. PARIS, KY. The Bourbon News: We are in receipt of the "Topeka Plaindealer" published in Topeka, Kan. The first headline upon which our eyes fell was this, "Would Not Teach Negroes. A Kentucky girl came to Kansas and refuses to teach children who, perhaps, are her relatives." If such as that would not make a true Kentuckian's blood boll I do not know why. The young lady's name is Miss Georgia Grimes, of Paris, Ky. Hurrah for the young lady! But away with such a paper. The article is too mean, too full of slurs at the Southern people to even quips and we hope to never see another copy of the paper. If the editor was only in Kentucky for a night we would like to stretch him "with hemp." We also received a paper from Smith's Grove, Kentucky, called The Times, which contained an article headed, "A Dastardly Article." They say that we are far away, is the reason we talk so strong. We live in a state where the laws are fairly well administered between man and man, is why we can talk so independently. We do not have to curb our ambition nor swerve from anything that is right to curry favor with such flenda as inhabit the large portion of Kentucky. The reason they say the article is unit for publication, it sights facts about the hell hounds who have debauched negro women for years, and now hate to be told about it. No doubt the editor of The Times has several colored relatives in Kentucky if the truth was known. The young lady is acting upon the influence of such cattle as The Times man and her father who pretends to hate Negroes, and acts that in the public, but O, my! how he can love them when he is not watched. We will stay as far away as possible and write these articles until Kentucky becomes more civilized, then The Plainndoaler man will pay Kentucky a short visit. DASTARDLY ARTICLE. The Smithville, Ky., Times: In an issue of the News last week, we pub- lished an article taken from the daily press, relative to Mias Georgia Grimes, of this city, refusing to teach school in a Kansas town, on account of negro pupils attending the school. We have since received a copy of the Topeka Plaindealer, a newspaper published by a negro, in which the editor takes up the matter and writes a scaling article, saying all kinds of things that are tended to arouse the feelings of any respectable person. The article is full of abuse and totally unfit to be read by any respectable person. The "nigger" editor of the paper is nothing less than a dirty scoundrel and would not dare to publish such an article, if he was not so far away. The people of Kentucky are too proud to place themselves on an equality with the negro, and Miss Grimes, in refusing to teach "niggers," only did what any true Kentuckian would have done, and she deserves all the praise that can be given her, in the stand taken. The above article shows that the Southerners are responsible for the prejudice in the Northern and Western states, and the school boards in these states should employ teachers who know and respect the rights of all. We are sorry for the young lady and her ignorant rebel father. Perhaps some day she may want the assistance of some of these little tots when they grow to man and womanhood. We hope this silly young woman will grow better in her old days and learn that these little childrens' parents supported her ancestors over three hundred years; giving their labor free and receiving in return abuae, their babes taken from the cradle and sold to satisfy the wants perhaps of her mother and father. We also call her attention to the fact that her forefathers were rapists and seducers of colored women for centuries, and that they now lynch and burn Negroes for supposed crimes of which eight-tenths are innocent, for just such offenses as her forefathers did commit. No doubt she has several half Negro brothers and sisters in her state, as old Kentucky was loyal in debasing Negro women in the antebellum days, and their love still hankers for them. We hope she will take a few minutes time with her father and say: "Papa, that Negro paper published in Topeka says it is probable that f have some Negro brothers and sisters! Can this be true?" "Oh, don't listen to such silly stuff!" "Well, how is it that there are so many light complexioned Negroes?" "Dear, your mother is calling, run and see what is wanted!" He is so guilty that he dares not answer his own daughter whom' he teaches to hate her own flesh and blood. Who knows but what some of the Negro children she refused to teach are related to her. Oh, how inconsistent these Southern devils are! A special from Wellington to the Journal, dated October 6, says: An agitation has been started here for a separate school for the colored children. Since this term of school opened many parents have refused to send their children in the same room with the colored. Some have sent their children to other towns for the winter to attend school. "The school board has been called upon to establish such a school. They have met several times and discussed the matter. "The colored people called a meeting at which nearly every colored person in the city was present, and prepared a petition to the board of education, asking them not to make any change in the present arrangements, for they do not think it would be treating them right to show any discrimination between their children and the white children, or show any partiality against them. "Other places seem to be having the same trouble. At Winfield one teacher has refused to teach on account of the colored students in her room. At some other places parents will not allow their children to attend school with the colored children." All white people who object to sending their children to mixed schools, should send them to a private institution. The taxes are paid into one common treasury by all who have an interest in the welfare of the government for the maintenance of the same. None but nulifiers of the constitution and those who evade the law, when matters don't go their way, cry race prejudice. They will resort to any kind of low, mean methods to further their ends. The colored people in these places are to be commended for the stand they have taken, and we advise them not to give up, but if necessary, carry it to the highest court. The man who demands respect, and if necessary fights for it, is generally respected. NICK CHILES. 1900 WASHINGTON STREET, WASHINGTON, D.C. A MUSEUM OF ARCHITECTURE AND ART 1900 WASHINGTON STREET, WASHINGTON, D.C. A MUSEUM OF ARCHITECTURE AND ART SHE SPELLED THEM DOWN TRANSPORTATION BUILDING. The Transportation Building, the great structure which will stand in the northwest corner of Fcrest Park, will be 525 by 1,300 feet, as wide as the Varied Industries Building and 100 feet longer. The building plans are the product of the designers of the Department of Works. Director of Works Taylor give them the basic ideas and for over a month Chief Designer Misqueray and several of his architectural artists studied the great structure in all aspects, especially with regard to harmony with surrounding structures. The general plan of the building is rectangular. There will be no court. The great distinguishing feature is the massing of the three entrance ways so that they will form an arcade, and this feature will be repeated along four sides of the structure. The three arched entrance ways will take up almost the entire 525 feet of the facade on the east and west sides. On the north and south sides these arcade entrance ways are placed in the center. Director of Works Taylor has dictated the following regarding the structure: "The Transportation building covers over 15 acres. The facades show a most pleasing adaption of the French Renaissance. The building combines a feeling of the magnificent Exposition ```markdown ``` building and of the high class railroad depot which prevail on the European continent. These two essential elements are apparent throughout the structure. On the east and west fronts are three magnificent arches which embrace more than half of the entire facade. Each of the arched openings will be 64 feet wide and 52 feet high. Through the archways 14 permanent railroad tracks will be laid from one end of the building to the other. At the sides of the three openings the projecting angles are accentuated by tower or pylon effects, which reach to a height of 150 feet to the base of the crowning statue. The pylons are not so much accentuated aa to be obtrusive, or out of harmony with the structure. "On the north and south fronts the architect has deemed it well to repeat the three massive archways which form the center feature of smaller fronts. This treatment pleasantly breaks the unwieldy facade of 1,300 feet. On the north and south fronts the pylon feature is omitted, but massive piers are repeated at intervals and lend dignity to the design. Flanking the three openings on the long fronts are great rows of magnificent windows SHE SPELLED Ruby Thornton, a 16-year-old colored girl, spelled down the entire school at Hlawaska last week. And by the way, it may not be generally known, but the young people of today are greatly inferior as spellers to the young people of pioneer days. In fact the spelling of the average high school scholar of the present day is very little short of criminal. Even many of the country school teachers are unable to write a letter of any length and properly spell all the words. Spelling lessons should be maintained in every NUMBER 42. to Respect People! LOUIS----1904 A Glance at one of the ManyHandsome Buildings to Be Seen at the Great Fair Next Year in Saint Louis. The Transportation Building is One of the Finest on the Grounds. as wide as the archways. Not only will visitors be admitted through the twelve huge portals, but subsidiary entrances are supplied at frequent intervals in the remaining stretch of walls. The roof treatment of the building is peculiarly happy. Over each of the big archways is a lofty curve which supplies a back ground for the architectural features. "The statuary is happily placed in front and at the base of the main piers at the sides of the grand openings. This affords sixteen groups which will illustrate transportation in all its phases as well as the progress made by the United States in this science. There will also be four groups of statuary surrounding the four pylons placed at the east and west fronts. The architect has subdued the use of sculpture in the building. He depends on mass effects and the grouping of masses. That is, he depends on architecture rather than on tawry decorations for SUNSHINE LANE CITY OF BROOKLYN NEW YORK his effect. The management of the plan is simple and direct. The entire width of the building is spanned by five well designed uniform trusses. Special endeavor has been made to afford plenty of illumination by day without the use of skylights. Light is introduced through the monitor windows over each span of the five trusses. "The building will contain about four miles of standard gauge railroad track. Even with this immense trackage the entire bents of the building are left free of rails and afford an exhibit space of 270-000 square feet. There is a novel disposition of the toilet rooms of the building. They are places in the bases of the projecting pylons and are so arranged as to receive light and ventilation and be accessible from the exterior so that no exhibitor can make the objection that he has been placed in the neighborhood of plumbing conveniences. At the east end a gallery twenty feet in width extends across the building. This affords a place for guard room and for the office of the department chief and will be an excellent place from which to view the picture below." THEM DOWN class of the common schools of today. They should be kept up clear through the senior year. Good spelling is one of the most, if not the most, essential parts of a good education. A person may be able to spring words as long as the Declaration of Independence but if he writes a letter and misspells a few words of two and three syllables, he is at once set down as an ignorant. The teachers of Kansas should hammer away at spelling from morning till night. Prof. J. H. Jackson of Colorado Springs, Colo., is in the city in the interests of his recently published book, entitled, "The History of Education. The professor is meeting with remarkable success, and we hope that a great many of our people in this city will avail themselves of this opportunity of purchasing this book, which indeed is a gem of priceless value and should not be lacking in any library. --- Mr. George Bradford will open a dancing academy at 413 Kansas avenue, November 3, which will be continued every Tuesday night.
