WILL CREATE SEPARATE SCHOOLS. Dr. W. H. Hudson, president of the organization known as the ‘Anti-Class Legislation” has issued a call for a meeting to be held in Topeka, December seventh, at 11 o,clock at the St. John’s A. M. E. Church, 7th and Topeka. All those interested in the welfare and the advancement of the Negroes of Kansas who are uow being held up to ridicule in a few sections of this state on the school question, should avail themselves of this opportunity to be present at this meeting. At this meeting they wish to raise means whereby they may be able to appoint men who will be present at each session of the next Legislature to prevent any such law as is now being carried out in Alabama, Missiasispi and other southern states from being inaugurated in Kansas, the home of John Brown, John J. Ingalls and other distinguished men who laid down their lives in the interest of good government and law alike for all. This state is becoming so safested with southern rebels and Negru haters, that it behooves all well thinking Negroes to bind themselves together and fight the hydro-beaded monsters of the Tillman and Vardaman type and their northern allies who are so easily led off by a few pretended soft and en- couraging words and a little money that they will eacrifice the rights of one class to serve others who happen to have a little more money and opportunities in life. W. H. Hudson president of the True Eleven, an organization for the betterment of the race, has spent both time and money in perfecting this organization. Tet us rally to their support by sending representatives to this meeting. al the next conclave, ‘The elimination of the Ladies Hanguet, we think is Ploper ton the retson that it way an or pense to unite the two; it would be helpful if Ht combd bee eartiod ont, Init it is Innidensinne and expensive wo they had to diqune with that pat of the pro: saan, Mr. Hale Decides to Run. ‘Two weeks ago Mr. Hale received a the bankers of the city, with whom in his capacity as city treas- urer he has been doing business for the past six years, a letter which undoubtedly materially aided him inmaking up his mind. ‘The letter follows: M. M. Hale, City ‘Treasurer, ‘Topeka, Kansas, Dear Sir: We hope that you will aliow your name to be used for another torm as treasurer of this city. You have carefully and conscien- tiously handled the millions of dol- lars of our tax fund ana without logs, and we believe it to be to the city’s best interests to keep an ex- perienced and honest man in this position.

In reply to this Mr. Hale has written the following open letter to his numerous other friends as well as to the signers of the letter: November 25, 1904.

We have just emerged from one of the greatest campaizns in the history of American politics. [Acampaign in which supposed fm. possibilities were accomplished. One which not only saw the solid South broken; Missour: placed in the Re publican fold; Arkansas in dispute roncerning where she stands, and Texas electing Negroes to office; but even noted southerners asking that Roosevelt's election be made unani- mous. The question is heard—what can be done to make the Scuth republi- can? What can the North do to en- Vist the services of the South along the lines or economic discussion with the rest of the country? The answer to these questions forebodes much that will be against the interests of the Negro. ‘There is no doubt but that the North will gtantthe South many things, and make many concessions in order to make it republican, and there is but one important question now that di- vides them, which they are pleased to call the Negro question. | Ina recent issue of the Atlauta Constitution, the editor, William Clark Howell, said:—“There is but one thing in this world that prevents thisnon sectional division of national expression, and that is the Negro question.” A South Carolina editor said recently:—“Scratch nine out of ten men inthe South and you will find a republican on everything ex- cept the Negro question.” Yes, and scratch those republican proselytes a little deeper and you will find a rebel of the deepest dye. Will the North let the Negro question stand in the way of the conversion and reformation of the South? Will itinsist on the enforcement of the Fifteenth amendment to the consti- tution? Will it endeavor to secure to every man the rights of suffrage and those other inalienable rights,— life, liberty and the pursuit of happi- ness? Or will they clasp hands and vow to no longer let the hated Negra question divide them? “That all the whims and fancies of southern chiv- alry shall be respected and granted: By observing and comparing whe fis being printed in some of our lead ing journals of the North, the lattes is what we may expect. Those sup: posed to be nearest the presiden’ have published to the world that th prime object of his approaching vist to the South is to show them that hi | position onthe Negro question ha: been exaggerated, and, as stated by one, “to explain to the Negro hi Dosition.”” ’ Tillman, Vardaman, Carmack, th [sditer of the Atlanta’ Constitutio and Birmingham Age-Herald hay || caused the Negro quesjion to becom jthe slogan of the whele country He now, faces an’. ieogending ,cris: Which cannot be averted, and he is ina poor position to withstand it. Tn all this broad land not a Negro’ voice will be heard in any legislative assembly showing why laws abridg. ing his rights should not be passed. But he can show that he isa man, and if the worst comes, bear the bur. dens bravely. If two centuries of slavery and for- ity years of mob violence failed to crush out his nobler virtues, he need not fear that uny concession the North might make wilt permanently injure him. He will step over all ‘obstacles, and with the promise of Him who rules the destinies ot all natious, stretch forth his hands and Grasp the sceptre of power. The South was willing that the Cubans should have unlimited sway in the affairs of Ouba; she now thinks it an outrage to not allow the Filipino the right of eelf-government. but to let the Negro have a voice in govern- mental affairs is a different proposi- tion. When public speakers ex- claim “There is no North, no South, no East, no West,” our bosoms ewell with patziotic pride; but see- tional lines are as tightly drawn, and the idea of states’ rights ave as strong today as when the cannons of South Carolina belebed forth on Fort Sump- ter. Were it not for the fear of con- sequences and the hope that the North will yet acknowledge her right to treat the Negro as she de- sires. the South would again give the rebel yell. If her courseonly reached the ignorant, shiftless, criminal_ele- ment of her population, it would not be so bad; but when it narrows it- self down to the question of color, thereby abridging the rights of some ofthe leading educators and repre sentative men of the race, it is time toask, “What shall we do to be saved.” Yours for the race, Cuas.

Repusiican leaders have some very queer notions. The other day we kad occasion to talk with one of our leading congressmen concerning the probability of se- curing federal recognition for some Kansas Negro, when lie made the remark that ‘you coi ored people must get togethtr and decide on some one man, and then we willtry and land him." This is the veriest of tommy rot, The idea that a‘) the Negroes of Kansas will de- cide on some one of their numbe: is ridiculous. They simply wili not do it any more than will the whites.
