The grand session of the Court of and JEWELS of the state of KANSAS and VOLUME VIII. SOUTH WON'T PAY BLAOK WORKMEK! Negro Switchmen in Memphis are Compelled to Work for Less Than White Men. Having been a readers of your paper for the past two years, the writer has been requested to speak the sentiments of the body of men known as Local Association, No. 4, of the National Association Afro-American Steam and Gas Engineers and Skilled Laborers. This is a labor organization for the benefit of the colored man only. It is in force in Pittsburg, Pa. where it was first founded and now has drifted down to clear old Tennessee. The said body organizes all crafts of skilled laborers and has for its object the bringing of black laboring men together on more friendly terms, and causing them to become more obligated to each other. We also are discriminating against low, degraded Negroes, the non-taxpayer, for we are aware of the fact that when a man twenty-one years of age fails to pay his poll tax he has disfranchised himself. Now, you take the average class of the laboring men of today and he has not had the opportunity to secure much training to take the right steps to succeed. But we think that by organizing labor we may accomplish a better place in the great mechanichal world. The colored man of the South is discriminated against in every instance. He is paid large per cent less for work than the white man. In the I. C. R. R. yards at which place I am employed as switchman, the white switchmen get per ten-hour day, $2,70 and 27 cents for each hour overtime; for night work he is paid 23 cents per hour. Now, here comes the colored man doing the same work and always put in the hardest place, put down off his job just as any white man working with him sees fit. And we have no place for refuge and our pay is only $2.25 per day 10, 11, 12 hours or as long as they see fit to work us. But the main trouble is that the black man's troubles in this locality have never been represented to the head officials, and unless we get them organised, it will be a matter of impossibility for one to speak the sentiments of a body unless he had the power to do so. Our trouble in our previous standing never gets further than the poor, low and last class of white men, and that is the class that has always had a spite at our welfare. The original charter of the above-named association was registered in the state of Tennessee by John W. Morton, Sec'v of State, at Nashville, May 29th, 1908. We have complied with all the requirements of law, and what we need now is words of encouragement from our leading colored paper and leading colored men, which will aid us in the labor struggles. We want to show to this country that we have colored laborers who are taxpayers and lawabiding citizens, and not brutes as Vardaman of Mississippi says we are. A good many of our number read your paper, as well as a larger number who do not belong to the organization. By words of cheer for our work and what we are striving to do, every colored man of Memphis, will be made to feel glad and that he should be up and doing. The association meets on the second and fourth Tuesday of each month; all laborers and stirring men are invited to join. For further particulars, apply to J. W. Cook, Sec'y Local No. 4, 953 Caldwell ave. Memphis, Tenn., or Lee Curtis, President. Grnd Lodge Meets. TOPEKA its jurisdiction, held an open meeting last night in the Pyramid hall. The hall was well filled with out-of-town delegates and citirens. Our honored citizen, P. B. Andrews, acted as master of ceremonies and he was at his best. The address of welcome on behalf of the local court was made by Ada Jones. It was a splendid address and certainly made all of the visiting guests feel welcome. This was responded to by Mrs. S. McGubbin, of Atchison, Kansas, Mrs. McCubbin is an old worker in the order and her remarks were appropriate and fitting. The visiting guests were then welcomed to the city by W. Cunningham on behalf of the mayor, and response in behalf of the visiting guests was made by Rev. OI Davis, of Kansas City, Kansas, an orator of more than ordinary ability. His speech brought forth much applause. After the speaking, all present were served with elegant refreshments. The meeting lasted until a late hour, but all seemed to enjoy themselves to such an extent that they did not notice how late the meeting was being held. The music for the occasion was furnished by Miss Nola Kelley. The sessions of the Grand Court were continued today, and tonight a public entertainment will be given to which every one is invited. A large number of out of town guest were present, among them being George Washington and wife of Atchison, Kansas. George Washington, with Mrs. Mollie Williams, of Argentine, and P. B.

Folk of Missouri has a great deal of work on hand to reform old Missouri. Not only is it burning, hanging, and lynching Nogroes, but even has them enslaved. Young and old Negro men were discovered by the U. S. Marshall last week, kept in stockades, shackles, irons and compelled to work for mean, contemptible white men for merely something to eat. When the maishal made this raid, he found eight colored men held in peonage. It was in New Madrid county on the Mississippi river, on a plantation owned by mossback, rebel Democrats. They were backed by some wealthy St. Louis men who would resort to almost anything to make money. Through this discovery, over one hundred Negroes have been found and liberated. Gov. Folk will find that the cleaning up of the Negro haters is quite a task, equal to cleaning out the Augen stable where the oxen were held for one thousand years. There are so many of these imps of Satan that we fear it will take one thousand Folks one thousand years to get them right, but there is nothing like pegging away and doing all you can at the time TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING, JUNE 22, 1906. The White Press Says he is Even More Worse Than the White Ruffians Who Assaulted the Rev. R. C. Ransom. Below we pubish a clipping from the Boston Journal, which gives an account of the weakness and stupidity of W. H. Council, president of the Mechanical and Agricultural college at Normal, Ala. Council's school is a detriment, not only to the state of Alabama but to the entire colored race of the South. He is doing nothing but teaching submission and bowing to every white man in that country. There is no reason why the Negroes should stoop to the low whites and cater to them. If we would learn to stand up for right there would be no excuse for tolerating the wrongs of the Southerners. 'It the account of Rev. R. C. Ransom, the colored clergyman of this city, is correct—and there seems to be no reason to doubt it—the treatment he accepted in Alabama on the occasion of his recent visit to the Mechanical and Agricultural College at Normal, in that state, was nothing short of despicable, the more so because partly at the hands of Negroes themselves. It will be remembered that Rev. Mr. Ransom was traveling in a Pullman sleeping car, in which he had been assured that he would have no trouble in the South. But in the State of Tennessee he was dragged from his seat by a trio of white men and hauled, kicked and cuffed through two other coaches into the 'Jim Crow' car where he was compelled to stay BRUNSWICK, Mo., June 10, '00. EDITOR PRIANDEATER - I write to ask a question. Will you be kind enough to tell me, what is an Evangelist? Is it a minister of the gospel, to preach any and everywhere; or is it a show, made up to give concerts and send tore runners as do other shows; and charge 10s at the door, as any other showman? It seems to me, the sooner the pastors of the different churches close these things out of their churches the better will be the results. In the way we have Evangelists now, we had better hold our own revivals and let the neighboring preachers help, and stop no much foolishness out of churches. Then we could have revivals that would result in some good among the people. I think that an Evangelist should preach the gospel in any place, tent, brush, pasture, shed, or any place where he can save a soul for Christ. I assure you any Evangelist that preaches the gospel for the saving of souls will succeed without a forerunner going in to advertise him as a 12 years old boy, and 100 at the door. YOUR WRITER [An Evangelist is an ordained minister, authorized by some church organization to preach special morals to revive the souls of the people and bring them into the fold of the church. They are paid by the bodies they serve and are not supposed to charge admission fees, or make their work a circus or side show. Those who charge for admission to their services are doubtless working for mercy purposes. A QUESTION. PLAINDEALER. until he reached Huntsville although he had paid first class fare under promise of protection. That species of assault on a gentleman of culture and refinement was bad enough, in all conscience, but it was as nothing compared to the treatment Mr. Ransom received from the authorities of the Negro college. They had learned of the episode of the sleeping car and when the clergyman reached the grounds at Normal, he was told that he would not be allowed to speak and that he must quit the place at once. In justification of this, Professor Council, the head of the school, gave out afterward that Mr. Ransom was under the influence of liquor. This the Bostonian absolutely denys, and we believe him. As he himself says: 'How would one expect a man to look or appear who had been twice dragged and kicked through two railroad coaches, escaping death only by a caprice of the mob, who had had no sleep all night and no food for two days'" To treat a decent man like an offensive beast is an outrage, yet it is almost insignificant when compared with the attempt to blast a clergyman's reputation by publishing lies as to his personal character. That these should come from a man of the minister's own race is all the more to be condemned. Evidently the Northern Negro can place little reliance upon his com patriot of the South." CORN A GREAT FORAGE CROP. There is a discussion of a valuable kind regarding the value of corn as a grass or fodder crop. People plant corn, so far as they know, to produce the mubbins first and the fodder as an incident. It was a Minnesota professor who said that as much value could be obtained from an acre of corn planted so thickly that no ears would form as from an acre of corn planted the usual distance apart. This study was once taken up at the Illinois station with interesting results. The trial lasted three years, and Prof W. A Henry, of Wisconsin, analyzed the findings. In the trials the corn rows were 3 feet 8 inches apart. In the rows the corn was planted 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 and 24 inches apart. In the 24 inch planting 5,010 kernels per acre were planted, producing 49 bushels of good ears and 6 bushels of poor ears to the acre; of digestible substance, the stover was 2006 pounds, grain 2,141 pounds, total, 4,207 pounds. In the 15 inch planting 2,504 kernels were planted, producing 64 bushels of good ears and 11 bushels of poor ears to the acre, of digestible substance, the stover was 2,394 pounds the grain was 2,782 pounds; total, 5,190 pounds In the 12 inch planting 11,840 kernels were planted. The yield was 73 bushels of good cars and 10 bushels of poor cars. The digestible substance was 2,480 pounds of stover and 3,113 pounds of grain, or a total of 5,591 pounds. The 12 inch planting resulted in the largest yield of grain, and in furnishing the most valuable crop from that standpoint. The 9 inch planting required 15,840 kernels per acre. The result was 55 bushels of good cars and 22 bushels of poor cars. The digestible substance was 2,602 pounds of stover, and 2,077 pounds of grain, the total being 5,599 pounds. of grain, a total of 5,072 pounds. The 3 inch planting required 47,520 kernels as seed per acre. The result was only 13 bushels of good corn and 40 bushels of poor ears. The digestible substance per acre was 3,968 pounds of stover and 2,250 pounds of grain, a total of 6,218 pounds. The greatest yield of stover and the smallest yield of good ears was naturally from the 3 inch planting It is said that further investigation would prove that a closer planting would tumble a still larger amount of digestible substance. The conclusion is, that as corn is king of field crops for simple grain production it is capable of greater results as a grass or forage crop. From the Corn Book, being the quarterly report of the State Board of Agriculture of Kansas, December 1905 HAULING MANURE TO THE FIELD. HAULING MANURE TO THE FIELD. While it is admittedly the latter plan to get the manure to the fields as soon after it is made as possible, the plan has its greatest value when the manure is spread as soon as placed on the soil; that is, do not put it in holes to spread at some later period, but, if possible, load it from the stable directly into the sprender so that as soon as it reaches the hold it can be put on the soil where it will be baked in during the winter. The idea of carting the manure direct to the field is to have it improving the soil instead of letting a portion of its virtue go into the air as is the case when it has an in the barnyard all winter. If it must be stored even for a short period, it should by all means be placed under cover and even then it should be so arranged that the piles are long and narrow and be kept trumped down firm at all times so that it will not the fang. It must also be turned occasionally and be kept wet. The place for storage should be far enough from the stables so that there will be no danger of odor reaching the cows so as to in any way be imparted to the milk. If it can be arranged in any way plan to cast the manure to the field and spread it daily for in this way it has by far its greatest value to the crop. BIG FARM FIGURES. Lifts two per cent of the population of the United States are farm folks. And these 5,700,000 farmers own about $20,000,000,000 worth of property. All the capital invested in manufacturing in this country figures up only $1,840,628,564 less than half the value of the farms. Tremendous resources are represented in our railroads, but their entire capital stocks and bonds for the year 1900 was $11,801,092,350, on only 58 per cent of the value of the farms of the nation. Indeed, the two great industries of manufacturing and railroads together have a value but little larger than the farm NUMBER 25. is in the Black Race! SHOULD HOLD THEIR LAND! Negroes in the Newly Made States Should Let Politics Alone and Get More Property. By an act of the legislature, the Indian Territory and Oklahoma Territory have been made a state? According to the census of 1900, the Indian territory has a population of over 300600 whites. 36000 Negroes, and 32000 Indians. Oklahoma has a population of 367000 whites, 18000 Negroes and 11000 Indians. This makes the Negro and Indian population about one seventh of that of the new state. Our advice to the Negroes is to hold on to the land they already have and get as much more as possible. They should not waste too much time in politics, but get down to business, trades, and farming. If they do not accept the opportunities they now have, Oklahoma state will be as bad as Texas and Arkansas. The Negro should take a manly stand for what is right and honorable, but do not insist upon too much political preference so far as office holding is concerned. Insist, however, upon political rights such as the constitutional laws should provide for, which should be that all men have equal chances. There should be no black laws enacted on the statute books of the new state, which would be an everlasting disgrace. The Negroes should vote for men for office that will guarantee these rights. Chronic office-seekers should be shunned. Now for every Negro to have an office bee buzzing in his hat at this time, will somewhat retard his political progress. We would advise them to join in with the fair minded white man and give him the elective office, so far as possible. We would like to see a few good, strong, honorable, sensible, colored men in the first legislature that convenes in the new state. We hope that no loud mouthed, ignorant and superstitious Negroes will be adhered to. Nothing but progressive land owners and business men with good sense should be nominated and elected to the Legislature. If they join in with the right class of white Republicans or even Democrats who believe in fair play for everyone the late Territory can be made up into legislative districts, so that at least a dozen colored men can be elected Beware of the fellow who gives advice and has never done anything himself and has no property, land or business to represent himself. We advise and admonish Negroes of the new state not to try to rush in where danger, enemity and prejudice awaits him, but to use diplomacy, good common horse sense, good sound judgement and everything will be well. Stand up for the rights and principals of manhood. Do not base anything on the color line but base it on right and justice. We do not want the colored people to ask for political preference because they are colored, nor concede anything to the whites because they are white, nor to the Indians because they are Indians. But concede everything to those who believe in fair play, justice and right. Hold fast to what you have and get more.

CURTIS, Clerk. First published April 20th, '06. NOTICE. To the colored people of Georgia, Mississippi, Louisiana, Alabama and other southern states. We are in receipt of a communication from Mr. W. G. Byrd, 675 Hood St., Portland, Ore., who says that excellent opportunities are now offered for progressive colored men and women who wish to improve their opportunities. There is great demand for them, as the white people of that section of the country are getting tired of Japs and Chinamen; they do not want anything but progressive and industrious colored men and women. No loafers or those who idle the year around need look towards Oregon, as the laws are very strict against that class and are rigidly enforced. It strikes us very forcibly that the colored people of these states who wish to better their condition should go to a state like Oregon, where the laws are more equally interpreted. The schools are mixed, the laws are administered according to justice, and seldom, if ever, do the people judge by the color when it comes to business. Take advantage of this opportunity and scatter over the great West. NOTICE.

It is handsomely bound and printed on good enamel paper which gives the cut a good showing. The introduction is written by the State Superintendent of Education, Hon. W. T. Carrington. The better way will be to send the money to me by registered letter and your return card will be a receipt for the zoney, signee by me. Yours very truly, J. S. Mott. PUBLICATION NOTICE.

Ringwald, who remarried Ellen Ringwald, after having been divorced from her, has filed suit for a divorce on the ground that he has discovered that she has African blood in her veins. Mrn. Ringwald's defense is that she may not be white, but she is "neither Negro nor a mulatto." Her plea is based on Boyvier's definition of a Negro, which says that a Negro is "a black man." He says that it has been distinctly held that the term does not include a mulatto. Ringwald's attorney will quote from the Standard dictionary that "a Negro is a person having one-sixteenth or more of African blood." .

LIST YOUR PROPERTY WITH WILSON. The real estate firm of Charles A. Wilson has a new ady in THE PLAN DEALER this week. This firm is building up one of the largest lists of farms for sale in the West and is adding new customers daily. Those who are in the market for a farm or ranch business will do well to write him at once. Their plan is new and is one of the best so far proposed for bringing buyer and seller together, being based upon the theory that where one man wants to sell there is sure to be another who wants to buy. The problem is to bring the buyer and seller together and thus can be done by advertising the many farms and properties for sale in papers and in circulars. Our readers are urged to write this firm if they want to buy or sell a farm and get the plan for closing the deal. These plans are simple and present and so inexpensive that they must surely appeal to anyone who wants to buy or sell. See adv. in this issue, and write Chas. A.

The Mission Circle of the Third Missionary Baptist church on Eleventh streets will unveil a painting in connection with the rendition of an excellent program on Tuesday evening, June 26th. The painting is by Robert E. Bell, and is to be the principal feature of the occasion. It is a baptismal subject, representing John baptizing Jesus in the River Jordan. Admission, 10 cents Rev B. J. Bell, Pastor. Mr. and Mrs John Barker are the happy parents of a fine twelve pound baby boy. This is their seventh --- child. The Barkers are now eager to the call of Roosevelt, who is fighting race suicide. The mater is doing well. Grandma and Grandpa John Buckner are to be congratulated upon their fine grandchildren. Dr. W. W. Caldwell is now located at 921 Kansas avenue, where he will be pleased to serve you at any time. Dr Caldwell graduated with the jama class from Washburn college, and is one of the brightest young men that ever left that institution. Troops who engage him will receive best class service. The Twenty-third Regiment band has been re organized with Pich. G. W. Jackson as director. It was pleasure Tuesday night to see Jemany Ferguson and all the "old tanners" together once more, which meant that the bard will be better than ever before. That a band was reached is a question beyond a doubt, as it was impossible to make a period of any kind in this city, owing to the fact that we had no band. And no one can realize this fact more forcibly than the several lodges in the city. It takes money to keep up an organization of this character, and if the people want it, dig down into your pockets and assist the bov. They need money, not talk, and it is your duty to assist them.

S. of Platteburg, Mo., and it was a great meeting. Proclamation Prest. E. H. Ridge, of Cameron, Mo., called the convention to order promptly at no'clock Friday a.m. The welcome address was read by Miss Flora Young and responded to by Miss Edna Clark, of Lathrop, Mo. The annual sermon was delivered by Rev. G. W. Wright, of Chillicothe, Mo. Pursuant to Section 1, Article 8 of Grand Court Constitution Page 12 which requires the Grand Court of I. O. O. C. to meet the same time and place as the Grand Lodge of Knights of Pythias, and whereas, the Grand Chancellor, J. E. Lewis has issued his Proclamation convening the Grand Lodge of Knights of Pythias on the 24th day of July, 1906 at 10 o'clock a.m. Prof F. H. Ridge was reelected president for the seventh year, and also all of his subordination were reelected The convention was a success, financially and spiritually. The financial committee reported $204.97, as having been taken at this session. Therefore, I, Maggie E. Matley, Grand Worthy Council of the order of Calanthe, Jurisdiction of Kansas, do hereby proclaim that the Grand Court I. O. O. C. of Calanthe, shall convene in the temple chamber of Bright Eagle Court No. 62 and Anthesite Court No. 79, Kansas City, Kas., on July 24th at 10 p.m., in their 12th annual session for the transaction of such business shall legally come before us. The S. S. Marr Meeting was a success, there being much of Missour's best literary talent displayed.

Per capita tax 25c, endowment tax Supreme temple tax; 10c, must be paid on or before July 15th as no Court will be allowed to be represented in the Grand Court, which is not paid up in full and complied with all laws, rules, decisions and mandates of the Grand Court. POINTS OF THE PILES BURNED. Remarkable Case of Spontaneous Ignition Recently Noted. A remarkable case of spontaneous ignition that recently occurred in erecting the wails of the new Rotterdam quay is related by the Technische Dundschau. Rains had been in use there for some time, which by 180 or 200 strokes per minute caused or steady advance of the piles. The foundation was such that the pillars had to be driven through the quicksand down to the solid ground. All deputies are requested to forward to this office their commission with a full report of their work accomplished in their district not later than July 15th. All past Councellors and members of the Grand Court must pay in their 25cts fees in order to maintain their membership in the Grand Court. The G. C. will assemble in point of session with the K. of P. at 10 o'clock a.m. to take a part in the opening informal. Each will be allowed one representative, past or present W. C. Let all our deliberations be guided by the Supreme Ruler, and in the bonds of F. H. and L. Done this 5th day of June, 1906, under the seal of this Grand Court, Order of Calanthe Jurisdiction of Kansas. On withdrawing some pliers, the points of the latter were found, owing to the enormous friction, to have been charred entirely and heated to such a point as to begin burning spontaneously on coming in contact with the air; nor could iron shoes prevent this spontaneous ignition. When leaving the piles in the ground this ignition would not result in any damage, the charring remaining confined to the surface, and the heat being rapidly carried away in the moist surroundings. --- THE PLAINDEALER Is Considered a Household Necessity in 60,000 of the Best Homes in Kansas! The Paper Growing Better While the Price Remains the Same The Musicale of Thursday night, June 14, and the Junior exercise of the night following, both excellent in character and reflecting credit upon the trainers and the trained, were followed on Sunday, 4 p.m., by the Baccalaureate sermon, preached by the Right Rev. Bishop Abram Grant, of the Fifth Episcopal District of the A. M. B Church. Bishop Grant is well on three continents as a man of that sterling worth and character that give additional force to the words of wisdom which fall from his lips. Taking his text as follows, Gospel of St. Matthew 25:24, "For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance, but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath," the Bishop delivered a message so strong, practical, logical, yet clothed in the simplicity of statement indicative of the cultured mind, that it became a source of inspiration to each one of his hearers, and it is safe to predict that the Senior class of '06, for whom the message was specially prepared, will always remember some of the valuable lessons and apt illustrations that adorned those lessons. The Rev. R. J. Fisher of Chicago, was to have addressed the religious bodies at 7:30 p.m., but, having been unavoidably detained, the Rev. R. Farley Fusier, of Zion A. M. K. church, this city, humorously saying, "If one Fisher cannot another one will, and thus sustain the reputation of the Fisher family," very kindly volunteered to preach the required sermon in the absence of the gentleman from Chicago. He took as his theme, "The Building of Character," illustrated by the making of the pillars of Solomon's temple.—I Kings, 7:21, 23—"And he set up the pillars in the porch of the temple, and he set up the right pillar and called the name there of Jacob, and he set up the left pillar and called the name there of Boaz. And upon the top of the pillars was lilywork; so was the work of the pillars finished." The discourse was a master piece of matter, form and expression, and received the close attention of the audience. The religious bodies, consisting of the v. m. a. and v. w. a. were fully represented, marching in a body. The Fort Scott District Confer-ence met last week in St. Paul A. M. r. church, Ploha, Kansas, Rev. J. R. Rinson presiding. The reports were better than any previous year, and every department of the church seems on the rest of the wave of prosperity. Papers touching every point of the work of the church were read. The productions, without a single exception, were most excellent. The presence of Bishop Grant, Tuesday, was indeed an inspiration and his address on Christian Education was a masterpiece. At night he preached, as he always does, a most powerful sermon, under the influence of which ten persons were added to the church. The annual sermon, by Rev J. H. Ramson, was highly entertaining and instructive; and in this connection I would say that he is universally loved by the ministers over whom he presides. Among the visitors who contributed to the success of the meeting were Dr Geo. A. Griffith, of the Topeka district, Dr. J. D. Barkdale, of the St. Louis district, Dr. A. H.
