R. C. Ransom with Ity three specifications, which you print this morning, is a remark- able document, These gentlemen submitted, concerning Mr. Ransom, that *t1, He xeems to be under the influence of whiekey, «2, He has created a great ev- citement on the railroad, which will or may Le detrimental tothe school. «3, We do not believe he is the right character to place before our students.” Permit me to say that, whetber Mr. Ransom was or was not “under the influence of whiskey,” at Hunts ville, the *szcondly” and “thirdly” in thia indictment should be wiped out at once, assheer Dogberry ver- Inge. The only real ground for not believing Mr, Ransom ‘ta right character to place before the stu- dents” was the belief that he was at the time ‘under the intluence of whiskey”; his general reputation wae, a8 the directors knew—if they did not know it they had no busi. ness to invite him from Boston to Huoteville—the highest. The third- ly is, therefore, a mere repetition of the Gretly. AstoMs, Ransom having ‘cre- ated a great excitement on the rail- road,” didhe? THERE IS NOT THE SLIGHTEST EVIDENCE OF IT, Noseneible man believes it. An eacitement there was, but he wae not ite creator, but its vic- tim. Me was kicked and cuffed out of a Pullman car, where he had the legal right to stay, by asct of ruf- fians on their way to a Democratic convention—where, I understand, they gleefully boasted of it-—because he waea “Nigger.” I do not un- derstand that one of them, or any body clre on the train, intimated he was then and there ‘‘under the influ’ ence of whiskey”; yet do we not all know perfectly well that if there had beca the elightest ground for “drunken Nigger” instead of plain “Nigger” the charges would have been run on it to the fullest eatent? Ofcourre we know It, Onc wervice, however, the com= mittec’s ‘secondly” doos invidental- ly render, Certain of the Hunteville Colored people, anaions to have us Velieve that they were in no wike intimidated by the surrounding white ventiment, have rent the states ment Lere that at the time they had not even heard of the ‘great eacites ment” on the train, but only knew that Mr, Ransom wan “drunk,” This could be disproved in many ways, If necevsary, but the commit: tee’s own #recondary” rettlew it, There should be no confusion of the feeuce jn this grave caso—for very grave it is, One in of great pubhe importance and the other is not. If Mr. Ransom, upon reaching TIunteville weak and faint after the outrageous assault which he indis- putably suffered, took a glaes of whiskey to brace bimeclf up, and it went to bie head, why, it isa pity, and he has grievously suffered for it. Bat there ie nothing remarkable about it; at least two or three ex- cellent white philanthropista have had similar eaperience In Massachu- setts einzse the landingof the Pil- grime, Mr, Ransom saya it was srot eo. and J think we are bound to believe him until there fs better proof to the contrary than any yet submitted Thle, however, I say, i« not of great public importance. It is of very great importance whether man of Mr, Ransom's fine talents and character, with the pre-eminent position which be holde among the Colored people of Boston and the high reputation he has won in the whole thoughtfal community by bis eloquence, devoted public service and passion for human rights, is to be kicked out of a Pullman car, where he belongs, because ke aa “Nogger.”" by a gang of ruffara 2 Tennessee who chanced to get bod of a eulogy on Garrison whick they found he had wntten—and Boston, {the home of Garrison and Summer and Andrew do nothing about it! This apathy seema to me the meas- ure of the degradation which we bave undergone as concerns our whole sense of duty to our Colored fellow citizens in the last eight years, Ihave heard of noscrious effort yet on the part of reeponeible and impartial men to get at the ex- aet facts in this notorious case, although it happened a month ago, and although the circumstances can certainly be investigated easily by some young lawyer who will go down there. 1, for one, should like to co-operate with others in sending @ good man down.

Rev, White, of the Central Baptjet Church, srose to some question to gain the tloor and then began to talk history. One thing he said was that, ‘Negroes were cowards” and that they didn’t talk enough. Mrs, Lucy Saurders replied by saying, ‘they didn't fight enough.” The whole church joined in a hearty laugh at the eypense of the Rev. He soon subsided as the lady had taken the sails out of his kite for the evening. Mr. Robt. Bell, the artist, and member of the church made the welcome address, which waa a master piece. He aaid, no country could outhve it’s sine, Me spoke of the the outrages committed by white people in this country and ca pecially upon the Negro.

He had asked for $5;000, No other cases were heard in the court yesterday, It was convened at 10 o'clock, with Judge R, 0.

Maudlin «& Townes, alleged that last October he boarded a belt car and paid his fare, taking a va> cant seat and acting in an orderly and peaceable manner; that the con+ ductor, after having directed him to go inside and eoon after tho plaintiff had taken his seat, came into the ear jerked the plaintiff violently from his weat, presented a pistol at him, and kicked and beat him, subjecting him to grievious bodily hurt and great humiliation, all to his Jamage £5,000. ‘The traction company, in its an- ewer, said that the plaistiff, ‘who wasn 3 colored man, did enter one of its cars on the day alleged, but was intovicated, and instead of taking hix seat upon one of the benches on which no one sat, dropped upon one oceupied by a white lady; that when told to take another, he began to curse the conductor, who thereupon took him by the arm and led him to the rear of the car, the Negro still cursing and otherwise miabehaving; that the Negro was not abused by the conductor, Grievous bodily injury iv denied, and it is stated that defendant had no meane of knowing thedegree of mental an- guish humiliation, etc., suffered by Johuson. Consideravle testimony was intros Juced, and ingenious pleadinga were made.

Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine has been so successful in curing these brain-wrecking diseases that there is every reason to believe that even the most hopeless cases can be benefited, if not fully restored. We will be pleased to refer any one thus afflicted to many who now enjoy the blessing of health, after years of hopeless suffering. "I have a son that had brain fever when two years old, followed by fits of the worst type, and he was pronounced incurable. I spent hundreds of dollars for him, without relief. After about fifteen years he became so bad that we sent him to Longliff hospital for the insane, at Loganport, Ind. He was seven three years, but he continued to grow. We sent him home July 30, 1902, in an awful condition. He had lost his mind almost entirely. He hardly knew one of the family; could not even find his bed was a total wreck. He had from 5 to 10 fits a day. We were urged to try Dr Miles' Nervine, and before the first bottle we need, We could see a change for him. We could see him ever since, and he had but two very light spells since last August, 1903, and then he was not well other ways. We pronounce him curable as he can work and go anywhere. If any one wishes to ask any questions concerning this, they are at liberty to do so." Follow the crowds and you will land at Wilson's Summer Garden.

The firm of William Green and Son is the first to conform strictly to the law recently passed by Congress against using coloring or preservatives in meats, especially sausage or wiener-wurst. This firm is one of the few first class concerns in the West that does not believe in adulterations. The fact that the people demanded that coloring be used in meats was the only reason why this firm used them at all. Now the people will learn what is healthful and what is hurtful. Wm. Green and Son sell nothing that deceives their customers. If an article is good they tell you so; if not wholesome they quickly tell you know. Fancy groceries, vegetables, fresh and cured meats without any adulteration can be had at Green's grocery. The colored people of Topeka should do what they can to assist the Salvation Army for the reason that it is the only religious organization organization among the whites which practices the teachings of Jesus Christ. The army gave a picnic last week for the poor children whose parents were not able to give them a summer outing. They paraded Kansas avenue from the army headquarters to Eighth street, where they took the car for Vinewood and spent an enjoyable day. The army furnished lunch and refreshments. We are proud to say that no color line was drawn, and every child, whether white or black was made welcome. --- The Emancipation celebration at Garfield Park August 1st will be a grand affair.

The Sewing Circle held an interesting meeting at the church Wednesday afternoon. After the dispatch of much important business, a splendid lunch was served by a committee of ladies. The very warm weather does not interfere with the worthippers of St. John; the church was filled with a host of devout worshippers at 11 a.m. last Sabbath and a good congregation greeted the pastor at 8 p.m. The attendance of the Allen League of C. E. was unusually large and the interest very pronounced. The young ladies who had consented to unite with and sing in the choir of the church made their first appearance last Sabbath. It was a beautiful sight as well as a delight to hear their sweet voices in the choir. Many favorably comments were heard upon the personnel of the enlarged and improved choir. At the Sunday morning service the pastor will administer the sacrament of baptism to a number of candidates. The last of the series of sermons on Women of the Bible was preached last Sabbath evening. Beginning Sunday, the pastor will deliver a series of sermons on The Lord's Prayer. This series of sermons will be of an evangelical character. Good singing will be a feature of the service.

OF course, the colored men of this country are put to many disadvant- ages, many hardshins, but still there are chances for usto better our con> dition providing we make the right step and put the right thing before the laboring class of people. We want to get our laboring people on better und more friendly terms, #0, Ithink the main thing for colored men to dd is to come together, save their earnings, buy more homes, educate our children, be honest in our dealings, truthful and mannerable, Then we will become more familiar by practice with what it takes to make a good citizen. I think by so doing the white Iaboring man will cut off some of the prejudice he has against the black laboring man. We black people are here and I think we are here to stay.
