THE TOPEKA PLAINDEALER. THE BROOKLYN PRESS CHARLES STEWART, and he has been contracted with the Associate Press for years and is well known throughout the country. Two Thousand People Heard Them Tuesday Evening at the Auditorium To Shawnee county Republican campaign was opened at the auditorium Tuesday evening by Prof. W. P. Vernon and Senator Chase I. Long. There were over two thousand in the audience and the distinguished orators were interrupted several times with applause. Senator Long took the hide off Senato Lafollotte and his sympathizers. He proved to the satisfaction of the audience that Heart, Bryan and Lafollotte were mere fakes, trying to deceive the American people. Senator Long read some very important letters, which had not before been made public, in which he showed that Harris, the democratic candidate for governor, had endorsed his policy on the rate bill, and that the beard of trade of Wichita had changed horses several times. Prof. Vernon followed Senator Long, and in a masterly address, paid a glowing tribute to the Republican party and its founders. He showed the great things done by that since its organization. He implored and beseeched the Negroes not to be led off by these so called leaders who are trying to fool the race into voting for the party that, if in control, will submit the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments to the Supreme Court, if the Democrats ever get in control of that body to pass upon the constitutionality of the same. He showed how dangerous for the Negroes to vote for a Democratic governor, who may have the opportunity of appointing United States Senator, confirmed by United States Judges. After the meeting a number of persons rushed forward and congratulated Prof. Vernon upon his masterly address, assuring them of its strength, and that they would not be found voting for a Democratic governor, especially a rebel of the South.

Hurst of the St. Stephens Baptist church of that city. He is a worthy gentleman and a raceman from start to finish. Through some misunderstanding some one tried to foreclose on this church, and the pastor only made a little distress sign and raided the money within twenty-four hours. He has a large congregation, lots of admirers and friends, and is in a community where a church is very much needed. The good work he is carrying on is to be commended. TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING, OCT. 19, 1906. DEFENDED THEIR HOMES! South Carolina Negroes Avenge Wrongs by Burning a City---White Ruffians Get a Dose of Their Own Medicine. ATWYLL, Ga. Oct. 17. - A special to the Journal from Greenville, N. C. massi. "As a result of race troubles, Senectus, N.C., is in ashes. The work is alleged to be that of incendury Negroes, seeking revenge for the dynamiting of the Negro college here last Friday night. The fire started only today and burned rapidly, consuming the entire business section of the town, which has a population of about 2,000. No fire fighting apparatus was available and citizens were powerless to stop the flames. As a last resort dynamite was resorted to. The superintendent of the Seneca cotton mill, who was an eye witness, brought the first news to Greenville. He says it is a matter of common belief that the fire was started by Negroes. Among the buildings burned are two hotels and a hardware store. The hotel residents were all saved. Everything is quiet this morning, although some feeling is still shown by the Negroes. No arrests have been made. The loss is estimated at $150,000, with insurance of $50,000. "Praise God, from whom all blessings flow!" The colored people are at last coming to their natural sense. We are advising this method; where ELENO, Ok., Oct. 16--It became known here today that E. A. Garlington, inspector general of the United States army, read an order from President Roosevelt several days ago to the battalion of the Twenty-fifth regiment of infantry here stating that the battalion must give the names of the men in the recent Brownsville, Texas, disturbance or be dishonorably discharged. The trouble in Brownsville was between these negro troops and the citizens. The townspeople had the Southern prejudice against Negroes and the troops resented it. Each side insists it did not begin the trouble, but there was trouble and several citizens were shot, one of whom died. The troops were ordered away and a temporary order was issued to abandon the fort. Since then the opinion has been growing that the troops were to blame, but it has been impossible so far to find the guilty men. TO REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT. The inspector general came here from San Antonio He left here today for Washington. His inspection tour took in Brownsville, Tex. Three of the companies of the Twenty-fifth, B, C and D are now at Fort Reno. Saturday General Gatlington had the companies lined up on the parade grounds and gave them to understand that unless he was given information as to which of the men were mixed up in the leavers mound, but the there could The time limit was extended day but it was revealed the order road to the soldiers was closed from President Roosevelt. General G. Bunting made inquiries and took the law and the officers we lay in their duty the people will have to act. As soon as the colored people in the south learn to defend their lives, property and all that depends upon them, the sooner these white vultures will cease preying upon them. If a little coal oil, or gasoline is used at the proper time it will stop most any mob. Whenever one of these mobs arrives, place five or six men or boys in different portions of the city or town, with orders to burn. Instead of the mob looking for colored people to kill it will have to fight fire. An organization of from five to ten persons is all that is needed—women would be more preferable. It is a fixed policy on the part of Southern officers to let these white human vultures have their way. The colored man must do something for protection. We admire the parties who had the courage to make an example of Seneca city. From now on, the officers should do their duty, and the good citizens should see to it that everyone should have fair treatment. "Vengeance is mine, saith the Lord." NICK SULLIS. several allidavits, but no final steps were taken to carry out the diminual part of the order. The Negro soldiers are restless and since coming here from Texas have been kept within bounds of the garrison. Several nights ago a shot was fired at the quarters of Major Penrose, post commandant, by one of the Negroes. This statement is denied but the soldiers assert that it is true and corroborate their statements by saying that immediately after the shot the entire garrison was ordered out and an examination made of the guns and revolvers. There is apprehension of more trouble, as the Negro soldiers are chasing under the restraint of the rigid discipline. The old soldiers view with alarm the prospect of dishonorable discharge but the younger ones do not seem to care much. It is understood that General Galtington has gone direct to Washington to lay his report before President Roosevelt and Secretary Tift In the meantime the white soldier at the post are guarding with extra care the boundary lines of the gunman to prevent any members of the three companies from leaving the post. The officers express the utmost confidence in the men and say they don't look for any trouble Officers at the post do not want to be quoted. Those who had any thing to say stated there could hardly be many dismissals made. The soldiers in these companies have served for a long time most of them being twenty or years old and they are discharged as soon as possible for all future compulsory service. The total ones of honorably discharged soldier are up from £200 to £300 a year. The younger ones say they would go in the cotton fields and be glad of the change. M. REV. E. ARLING FON WILSON, president of the State Baptist Convention. He is a gentleman of rare ability and stands high in the councils of church and state. While the Negroes of Kansas City have evidenced remarkable enterprise in other directions, especially in home buying and church building, they have not kept pace in the business spirit of newer Kansas City. Certainly there are fewer Negroes in business here, compared with the great and growing Negro population, than is the case in any other city of like conditions and opportunities. In Kansas City, it is in many other places throughout the middle West and border states, the white people are high number and liberal in their views towards self-respecting Negroes, and are frequently found to be the best support the Negro in business here. This is especially true in the case of drug stores owned and operated by Negroes in parts of the city where respectable white people comprise a large portion of the population to the immediate neighborhood. For the credit of the men who conduct these stores it may be said that their places are kept sereniously clean and inviting, their windows bright and tastily dressed with a display of desirable sundries such as are on exhibition in other first class shops in their line. They are also as a rule free of the habitual loiter or "chair winer" as they are usually called, a definition applied to one of the most detectable human nuisances with which the Negro in business has to contend. Thus here who is invariably one who claims and hopes always to keep on terms of close friendship to the shop keeper or professional man who has a warm stove to lounge around, is a plague most peculiar to Negroes as the white loater is rarely, if ever, on visiting terms with the better and busy class of his race, and why should the Negro in business continue to tolerate so damaging a detriment to his business? Why not, if occasion demands, use stern means to protect your business, and at the same time do the race a great service by protecting its reputation against the habitual loater. If the police are disposed to permit him to go undisturbed it is at least the duty of the race to refuse him respectable quarters.—The National [K. C.] Mirror. At Iola. We were glad to have the pleasure while in Iola last week, of visiting Mr. and Mrs. Alex Reeves and their happy family. Mr. Reeves is employed in the cement works and one of his sons in the laboratory. This is a young man yet in his teens and now earning $60 per month. Two fine boys and one little girl, who is the pride of the household, comprise the family. They have just remodeled their beautiful home and have made it modern in every way. NUMBER 41 uare Meals a Day! DEFENDS THE NEGRO RACE! A White Woman Speaks a Kind Word in Favor the Negro. A claim is made that the Negro is above and beyond all other men the one who is addicted to the lowest passions of minkind. If anyone is destroys of having a clear view on this matter, I have a list of crimes of this sort which have been committed by white men, who go scott free almost every time and, in fact, not one tenth are ever so much as mentioned. It's so common that it's hardly noticed. Mothers are shamed to have their little ones dragged into court to testify, and they would rather hush it up. What does come into the daily papers often are published on the same page which records a lynching or burning for a supposed crime of the same kind by a colored man. James J. Hill, the railroad mag nate, when asked with regard to the race question, what his opinion was, answered that the Negro women must be uplifted. The Negro women are uplifted. Go where you will, from the highest to the lowest, you will find they compare more than favorably with any other women of any other race. Whatever he claims, they are slaves of their own race, the victims of the white man's lust. Did he ever hear of the camps of Michigan, where miserable white girls were kept in stockades? The white man must control his lust before we set up in judgment on his colored mother, and then remember he is supposed to belong to the superior race. He further says that the yellow natives are the offspring of lust (he didn't say the white man's lust). Well, it was not the black man's annault. That was the black woman's sorrow and the white man's shame. Not one shadow of blame can be laid on the shoulders of those unhappy mothers, on their martyred souls. God forever bless them! What grand natures they had! What they suffered when their own dear children were matched from their breasts to be supplanted by the white man's child, whose mothers shirked their duties to their own CONTINUED ON PAGE SIX.

A Southern newspaper, remarkably liberal on the race question, has been having much to say of late on the effect of lynching upon immigration. This very distinguished journal decides after much deliberation that the people of the South cannot hope to secure a fair proportion of the many thousands of Europeans, who come annually to this country to find homes and remunerative employment. It is a well known fact that very little immigration has gone into the South. This, it is claimed, is due to the peculiar position of the white Southerners towards the Negro. The record of the many burnings and lynchings of Negroes goes to the uttermost parts of the earth, tending to nullify the agricultural, mineral and financial reports of Southern prosperity that accompany them. It is a well known fact that a strong effort has been made for the past ten years by Southern business men, to divert a portion of the immigration from the West to the South, for the purpose of securing a laboring class to take the place of the Negro. No class of people, especially the foreigner, cares to cast their lot among a people whose chief claim for a front seat among the notorious is that they burn the victims of their displeasure and grove among the acres hunting for hones that they may have a fitting souvenir of their revolting holiday. The question of labor is a grave one to the South with its great prospects. What the South needs now is not so much immigration as it does good common sense in dealing with the best class of labor the world has ever known. As a labor element the Negro, when properly treated, is the most delicate, industrious, and will work longer hours than any other race. But what he needs is intelligent direction. He needs not only intelligent direction from those of his own race, but from the so-called dominant class as well. Booker Washington may found a thousand schools and preach the doctrine of industrial education until the "crack o' doom", and there will be but slight change in the condition of things in the South, unless the white men of the South put a little common sense into the adjustment of the races' relations. LINCOLN INSTITUTE NOTES. At no previous time in the world's history has that ancient and honorable occupation known as agriculture received the scientific attention that has been accorded it within the last decade, and yet, although it is generally admitted that "the farmer is the only real master of his destiny," farming methods, at the present, in spite of advanced ideas, as some one has well said, are little more than "a light scratching of the soil." To render this "scratching" more productive of results is the aim of the many Farmer's Institutes and conventions that have multiplied within the last few years; and that they have enabled the white farmer to grow two grains where only one grew before, indicates what the Negro farmer can do if he will learn to be wise in his day and generation; if he will learn proper methods of cultivation, fertilization and proper rotation of crops. Hence the call for the Annual Farmer's Convention, issued by President Allen, for November, 9, 06, at Lincoln Institute, should meet with a hearty response from all interested in the future of the Negro. Every school house in the United States, as has been demonstrated again and again by our able State Superintendent of Public Instruction in Missouri, Hon. W. T. Carrington, can and should join the new crusade for better methods in agriculture—the oldest of arts and sciences, the cornerstone of all civilization. Let us come together irrespective of state lines and discuss ways and means of improving the condition of the Negro. Remember the date, NOVEMBER 9, 1906. The concert given by the Y. M. C. A. on the 12th inst., under the auspices of Prof. Reynolds, was a great success, financially and otherwise. Among those who participated in the program was Miss Ida Burrell, Department of Domestic Science, who an usual delighted the audience and covered herself with glory. These religious societies, the Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A. are in a flourishing condition and help materially in elevating the tone of student life. Regular visits are made by the State Secretaries and others interested in this national and international work. Banke- Emil Schott and family, of Jefferson City, E. J. Cooper, of Mexico, Mrs. Gorse, of St. Louis, were among the visitors of the week. The sermon delivered by Rev. F. F. Fisher, of the Jefferson City, Zion A. M. E. church, on Sunday, 14th inst., was highly appreciatrd. VINITA, I. T. To the Editor: Please allow me space in the columns of your valuable paper to say a few words which may be of some interest to the reader concerning the the duties which we justly owe to our country, to our fellow men and to our children, as true American-born citizens of these United States First, every child born into the world, be he white black or red, has the same rights and privileges as an American citizen, and as years and experience are forced upon them, and not unless the early years have been so carefully provided with the warm sunshine of love and sympathy, that in heart has its own happiness, its own sunshine, can the larger duties be successfully and cheerfully performed. Second, every Negro of the American continent, should be a Republican, and ought to live up to the true principles of Republicanism; and not until such is taught and practiced will the Negro share equal rights and privileges which justly and rightfully are due him. We have among us those who are considered would be leaders, who are doing all they can to speed the progress of the Republican party by taking the fool ignorant Negroes and selling their votes for a dollar. Such men will not only sell their own votes, but they are such traitors that they will sell their wives' and daughters' virtue. And the sooner such men are dead and in hades the better off their communities will be. Any and every white man has a perfect right to vote the Democratic ticket if he chooses, but how can a Negro afford it? Can you vote and support a party which curses you ere you are born, will punish you while you live, and damn you after you are dead? I will answer no The Democrats can not and will not make or form any law that will effect the white Republicans more so than themselves, and the white Republican, knowing that he can and does enjoy all the rights and privileges as an American citizen will not deprive the Negro of his rights, but pleads that he must stay with the party. The Democratic party, I suppose, is a good party, and it has belonging to it some among the best men that ever trod the American soil. And they are honest in their convictions, but the Negro that claims to be a Democrat and acting in that capacity is in doubt, and doubt has its place, for no true faith is possible except through questioning and denial. The man who claims he has never doubted has never believed. His faith is only a matter of the acceptance of the views of others, and is in danger of vanishing at the first assault. All influences, acquirements and aspirations which tend to make a better man, also tend to make a better Republican. Lasting impressions are made upon our people, not so much by what we say as by what we really are. Hence, everything that broadens our vision and deepens our political life is an aid to more effective work. It is a law of life that we must improve or deteriorate. It is not possible to maintain a dead level of excellence and if we are not continually sharpening our skill we are surely dulling our efficiency. Be men, and prove yourselves as useful citizens. COFFEYVILLE, KANS. Nest. Johnson returned to Omaha, Nebr. Monday, after a few days stay in the city, being called here by the death of his brother, William Johnson. Mrs. Eliza Donley departed this life Monday, October 8th, after a long illness. She was a devoted Christian, and leaves six children and many friends to mourn her loss.

The Football team will play their first game with the Sumner High School of Kansas City, Kansas. at Chelsea Park. next Saturday. The enrollment within these first six weeks has already reached 190, only ten less than the total enrollment for the entire last year Miss Nettie Penix, our Assistant teacher in Music, gave a recital before the students and faculty last Tuesday afternoon. Her technique, expression and execution were a wonderful surprise to the audience Miss Wallace, the Kansas State Lecturer of the W. C. T. U., adduced the Forum last Sundy on tobacco, strong drink and the drug habit. Her talk was very beneficial and elicited the signatures of many students to the total abstinence pledge. Mrs. W. W. Fisher of Topeka, vocalist, will give a song recital in our auditorium in the near future. Mrs. Fisher is gifted with a beautiful voice and has received much training.

HARRIS DOES NOT KNOW CONFIRMS STATEMENT THAT HE IS OUT OF TOUCH WITH .KANGAS. HE IS A "MAIL ORDER" CANDIDATE A Few Things Regarding Republican Administration of the Attorney General's Office—The Record Made a Good One. A little more than a year ago while paying the state a visit, Col W A Harris, of Chicago, was asked if a newspaper representative in Congress an opinion regarding the politi nation in Kansas. He declined to do so, couching his declination in the following language: "I have been away from the state so long that I am out of touch with Kansas as air. I do not want to discuss. I must polities for publication for the reason that my lack of information on the subject precludes intelligent discussion on my part." At that time Col Hurds had not been brought to Kansas to run for governor as the "mall order" candidate of the democratic party. He has made no such statements since he began his campaign this year and they have really been unnecessary as he displays his lack of familiarity with Kansas affairs in nearly every speech he makes. In fact his lack of information regarding the politics of the state is at times so ridiculous that it provokes laughter in his audiences. For Instance, Col Harris declares that the office of attorney general has been poor; administered for a number of years, his idea being to show that the present Republican nominee will give the state a repetition of the administration of his predecessor Says he; "Goddard was attorney general and Coleman was his assistant; Coleman is attorney general and Jackson is his assistant; now Jackson wants to be promoted. It is the same old breed." Coleman was not Goddard's assistant and everyone who has been keeping track of Kansas affairs knows it but Col Harris of Chicago does not In his anxiety to spread poison against the Republican candidates he even forgets to give Coleman credit for the many things he has done during his administration as attorney general. Attorney General Coleman vindicated the eight hour law in the supreme court of the United States, and the anti trust law on two occasions in the same forum. The interests of the Arkansas Valley have been protected by every resource known to the law in the Kansas Colorado suit now approaching its conclusion. The Metropolitan Street Railway of Kansas City, the great express companies, the Kansas City packing houses, the pipe line companies, and other corporations which have done business for years without even pretending to ask the permission of the state and without any charter authority have been compelled to submit to the law of the land to pay in their charter fees and submit to state regulations just like a village bank or some small local corporation. This has materially augmented the revenues of the state and together with the economies practiced by the legislature and state institutions, has caused a reduction of the state taxes of this year from 57 to 41 mills. This is an official policy which brings results—results that you will see when you walk into the county treasurer's office this winter to pay your taxes. There are other suits still pending. The Fullman Company, and the Western Union Telegraph Co.—both corporations—have never had authority from the Kansas Charter Board to do business in this state. They have paid—no charter fees. The Attorney General believes that their great wealth and enormous capital place them on no different footing from that of a village corporation for making brick or digging coal. They are fighting hard, but it seems safe to predict that in time the State will win and these corporations, so far as they are doing a purely Kansas business, will be held amenable to the Kansas corporation laws. Colman is not a candidate this year in his party does not apologize for his administration. OTHER CANDIDATES SORE. Kick Because Harris Gets all Benefit of Campaign Fund. The campaign expenses of Colonel Harris are paid by the Democratic state committee. Most of the other candidates are men of moderate means, and they also would like to have a lift in a financial way. But the state committee has no money for anybody but Colonel Harris, and if the other candidates do any campaign work, they must do it at their own expense. As a result of this condition, Colonel Harris is the only candidate who is taking much interest in the campaign. Colonel Harris will no suffer any financial loss on account of the cost of the action. The states do not allow his to do so, and the Democratic state committee will not allow his to do so, and help his business in the long run. In this respect he has a great advantage over the other candidates on his ticket. Fred A. Jackson After International Company on Criminal Charges Company on Criminal Charges. Fred. S. Jackson, assistant attorney general, has followed up his proceedings of ouster against the International Harvester company and the Standard Oil company with criminal proceedings against the International company. The prosecutions are brought under the Kansas and trust law. Violations of this law subject the offending corporations to fines of from $100 to $1,000 on each count. Fifty separate offenses are charged against the international company in the information filed in the district court of Shawnee county. This means that the state will proft from $5,000 to $50,000 in Mr. Jackson is able to sustain his conition that the international has been violating the antitrust law. Mr. Jackson is not yet ready to say whether similar prosecution will be instituted against the Standard. At any rate he is not now in possession on such evidence as he would desire on which to base prosecutions. He is finding it not difficult to set aside against the standard for our reason that producers are better satisfied with conditions than they were some time ago. The antitrust information and minimum freight rate laws enacted by the republican legislature two years ago have helped the oil producers wonder fully. As a result of the favors the oil producers received from the republicans those best placed on political conditions in southwestern Kansas are prescribing that Governor Hoch and the republican state ticket will carry the third congressional district by G(000) KEEFER MIS-QUOTED. Populist Candidate Victim of Kansas City Star Mirapresentation. In view of the fact that the entire Demonstrate campaign in Kansas this year is being made under false pretenses it is not unnatural that the Kansas City Star, the Missouri news paper which has been made the official organ of the candidacy of an Illinois man for Governor of Kansas should resort to all sorts of misrepresentation and falschool in its efforts to make votes for its chosen candidate. Not satisfied with terming democrats who are supporting Harris, Republicans, lying about the size of Harris meetings and making unfair and malicious attacks on Governor Hooch, the Star, in its desperation has now stooped to misquoting even the Populist candidate for Governor Horace A. Keefer. Mr. Keefer was in Topeka a few days ago attending a meeting of the populist executive committee. The next day the Star printed what purported to be an interview with Keefer in which he was credited with a statement that Harris would carry the state. Mr. Keefer promptly denied having made any such statement. "I did not make such a statement," he said. "I do not think Harris will carry the state. Further than that no representative of the Kansas City Star talked to me in Topeka. I am thorized no such statement. The story printed in the Star was maliciously and wilfully false." A DEMOCRATIC BLUNDER. Mistake Made In Deposing "BILL" Sapp Now Realized. As the campaign draws to a close the democrats over the state are coming to the conclusion that their state committee made an error when it turned Col. "Bill" Sapp down for chairman and elected Col. "Bill" Ryan in his stand. Sapp was on the jump all the time. Ryan is sluggish Sapp knew everybody. Ryan doesn't Sapp's political manifestoes would parase. Ryan's won't. Everybody was satisfied with Sapp, except Dave Overmyer. Nobody is satisfied with Ryan, not even Overmyer, since Ryan an challenged Jackson to debate without having consulted Overmyer about it. Sapp tries to conceal his glee at the dissatisfaction with Ryan but is unable to do so. Sapp daily damns Ryan with faint praise. Democrats say that when the trouble is over Ryan's management of the campaign will stand out prominently as the most forceless in the party's history. COL. HARRIS IS WORRIED. Lack of Democratic Organization Proves Serious Stumbling Block One of the things that worries Colonel Harris is the lack of organization by the Democrats in the counties. The state committee is not able to grasp the situation, and Colonel Harris's efforts to rouse the local leaders are fruitless. In a few counties the Democrats have put up a strong man for sheriff, or treasurer, and are trying to capture enough Republican votes to elect him, but there is little interest for the Democratic state ticket. When Colonel Harris reports that a certain county is "dead," the state committee sends out a few hundred copies of Colonel Bill Ryan's speech, and that particular county is checked off as having been properly looked after. One of the Kansas City Star's correspondents, who is in close touch with Colonel Hirsch, said in a that "Harris' friend" so pull him thru, in spite of the state committee." Goy Hoch finds his prospects as good now as they were at this time two years ago, and everybody knows what happened two years ago
