THE TOPEKA PLAINDEALER. A.M.E.ANNUAL CONFERENCE! The Kansas Wing of This Great Religious Body Shows Commendable Progress. --- VOLUME IX. Now That th A. M. E. ANN The Kansas Wing of T Shows Commen The Kansas A. M. E conference convened Wednesday morning, September 25th, at Parsons, Kansas the Rt Rev Bishop A. Grant presiding The welcome address was delivered by one of the leading ministers of the city. This was one of the best conferences ever held since its organization. Over $1000 was collected. The widows of deceased ministers, superannuated ministers and those of poor charges were given money to assist in their future work. Strong resolutions were passed asking for the return of Bishop Grant to the Fifth Episcopal district. Representatives from other conferences were present and begged that Bishop Grant be allowed to come to their districts. Rev. J. M. Cornor of Ft. Smith, Ark. made a strong speech and it looked as though he was about to capture the conference with his eloquence. He made a piteous plea for Bishop Grant to come to his district, saying that the colored people in that portion of the country need a Moses like him to lead them through the wilderness Resolutions were passed by the various organizations of the conference praising the bishop for the great work he had done in his district. Also one by the organization assisting Douglass Hospital at Kansas City, where sick ministers, their families and any other colored person can go and be properly treated. Prof W T Vernon, registrar of the U S treasury, declared Bishop Grant the greatest living American, and said that it was through him that the great growth of Western University has been established. All was harmonious throughout the session, and there were a number of vistors present. The following delegates and alternates were elected Thursday afternoon to the general conference which will convene at Norfolk, Va., in May, 1908 Rev J R Rassom received 69 votes and will be chairman of the delegates Rev Ward received 58 votes, Rev Braxton £6 and Rev King 47 The lay delegates are Prof Shelton French and Hon Thomas Glover The alternates are Reverends Biggers, Wilson, Ross and Terrill. There were several changes made at this conference which will surprise the many members The address of Prof Hawkins, a member of the election board, was one of the greatest speeches pertaining to the race question that we have heard for years. Much credit is due Rev Sage and the members of the church for their hospitality in entertaining the conference Credit is also due Mrs Louis Glass, who had charge of the meals in the basement of the church. She handled her department in a business and lady-like manner, and cleared a neat sum for the church The conference adjourned to meet in Topeka in 1908, where they will be entertained equally as well as at Parsons LIST OF APPOINTMENTS.

Washington has purchased 18,000 acres of land in Alabama, and will colonize colored people on it. This is the greatest move that has been made by any American man since the days of slavery. This move should be taken up by other colored men and corporations in the West. Let every body praise Booker Washington in the highest. This is the beginning of the great project that has been advocated by us for a number of years. There is no reason why the colored people of the Southern states should not co-operate, buy thousands of acres of land and settle their people upon it. Mr. Washington has sounded the key note. Let those who oppose him now get in line and follow the procession, for he is gifted and gone on to the gorious road. The C. M. E. Conference! The twenty-sixth session of this conference will convene in the city of Topeka at Lane chapel, opening with a musical program by some of the best talent of the various churches. The program October 8th at 8 p.m will be as follows— NUMBER 40. officers will be present: Rev. J. C. Martin of Memphis Tenn.; Rev. H. Bullock, of Jackson, Tenn; Rev. R. T. Brown, of the Christian Index, Jackson, Tenn. Everyone is invited to attend the conference while in session. Bishop Isaac Lane will preside, M. F. WARFIELD, P. E. A. H. NORRIS, Pastor. Fight Statehood. The colored people of Oklahoma and Indian Territory are trying to raise money to send delegates to Washington to ask the president not to sign the Jim Crow statehood bill. It means nothing more nor less than ostracism and deprivation of their rights for the colored people of the new state. Unless the colored people themselves take up the responsibility and defense of their race to the sacrificing of their lives We wish to notify the newly elected governor that if the statement made by him is true as published in The Globe-Democrat, to the effect that he intends to Jim Crow the Negro in the territory and bar them from as many privileges as possible, he had better be careful in administering justice to the people of that country. It is a pity to keep up race conflicts and strife between the two races. The freedmen for many years have enjoyed the rights and privileges of that country. Those who immigrated there and took the land have suffered all kinds of hardships to live on it. And now to be deprived of all this after years of hard struggles, by a lot of Texas and Arkansas rebels who have gone into that country and stolen Indian lands, and are doing it to this day with the assistance of the United States government, whose representatives seem to be sealous and duty bound to reap the gold and deprive the poor, defenseless Negro and Indian who have been living at peace with all the world all these years and now have to come in conflict with this class of people to enron them and their children Our advice to the colored people is to be prepared to protect their land, wives and children. The new state has intended that Haskell and the Democratic party shall lynch, burn and drive the Negroes from their homes. Get guns, ammunition and sleep with one eye open. Be ye always ready, for you know not the day nor the hour when the poor white rebels will pounce upon you. Do not move anywhere, stand up for your rights and demand a man's privilege, nothing more nor less. The sooner this question is settled in that territory, the better it will be for all. The colored people may as well begin at once, and that will stop the conflict, and everybody will be respected. JUNCTION CITY. The rally at the Second Baptist church was a fine success despite the rainy weather. Many from Clay Center and Manhattan were present to assist. Revs. Warder of Manhattan and Cox of Abilene assisted in the services. The papers by Miss Harrison of Manhattan, and Jones of Clay Center, were well prepared and were enjoyed by all present.

It will not be difficult for Bostonians to recall the excitement caused some years since by an enterprising tailoring establishment known in fame for its importance, rounding of the question "Do you yearn for which created the eye it every turn. When this tumor of advertising was at its height, his friendship the Rt. Rey. Mr. Courtney, then but recently created bishop of Halifax paid his first visit to his former to be apton where for a number of years he had been rector of St. Pauls Tremont street which post he had left for the higher dignity in North Scotia. He appeared on the street in the conventional dress of an English blouse, including the long black stockings and knee breeches. Thus attired he was met by the Rev Phillips Brook who paused before and gazed intensively at the unusual figure thus presented. The eyes of the distressed Boston clergyman travelled slowly down the 'call form of his late colleague in the ministry until they rested upon his nether extremities then, extending his hand, he inquired solemnly: "Do you wear pantal". THEY ARE MOST RELIGIOUS Chinese Declared to Be by One Who Has Made a Study of Them. Has Made a Study of Them. How little the white man, especially the majority of those of us who go forth as missionaries to "convert the heathen," comprehend the Chinese character! To the student of Chinese institutions, and the Chinese themselves, it seems outrageous presumption, for the truth is that the Chinese are without doubt the most religious people on the globe, says a writer in Outing. Their religion is a very part of themselves, accepted without discussion from birth. The veriest paper, from a worldly point of view, who lives on one of the hundreds of campans floating before Canton, will deny himself in order that he may perform a particular religious duty. There are no people save the Mohammedans that so completely live up to the faith they profess. China has no divergent churches, no wrangling apostles there is the one creed, of thousands of years standing, to which all yield allegiance and to which all pin a faith that continues unto death incontrovertible. Now and again we hear of a "converted" Chinaman; but I never saw one that had really broken from the faith of his fathers who was not the less trustworthy. In a considerable experience with many kinds of natives in the wilderness of their own country, I have invariably found the most farthest from "civilization" and the "converting" influence of conflicting white man creeds, to be the most honorable and dependable. I mean this as no unkind reflection upon the Christian faith or upon the zeal, often, also, so ignorantly directed, of many good people. in Defense of War Women in Siam. The position of women is high in Siam; they enjoy both in business matters and social life a great independence. Though polygam is permitted, it does not exist among the great mass of the people, and in no way affects the position of women. Match-Box Furniture A London hotel keeper possesses a remarkable suite of furnitura. For many years he had collected empty match boxes which were finally made by a skilled cabinet maker into articles of furniture. The outfit consists of a writing table with smoking apparatus, a fire-screen, a cabinet, a chair and smaller articles, in the construction of which many thousands of boxes were employed. Dottie's Prayer. "Please, God, make Mamie Ross a good girl. Plenty make her a awful good little girl. An' if it ain't too much trouble., please make her so good that I can take her new doll, an' still think it a noble an' self sae'feln' never to ask for it back again. Amen!"—Cleveland Leader Poverly's. The town of Poverty has been without kerosene now for ten days or two weeks. Some have actually sat in the dark waiting for bedtime. The motion has been made to change the name of this town.--Caliburn Star. Burolara Are Skapical. On the safe of the Albina Fuel company, Portland, Ore., was the placard: "Save your time. There is no money in the safe." But burglars who could not read or were incredulous broke in open the other night. They found some old books only. ’ NORTH TOPEKA.

B. Lewte, Topeka, Kans, COLOR LINE IN THE CEMETERY! White People Object Because Negroes Let Graves Grow up in Weeds. This paper has on many oc- ata censured white people for setting aside certain sections of the cemetery as burying grounds for Negroes and refusing to sell them lots other than ia the place set aside for them. It is ndeed inhuman for a man or set of men to carry the color line ‘nto the graveyard, anda care. ful look into the matter through glasses unblinded by prejudice, a person who 1s fair will readily decide that it is not color that ‘makes the Negro an undesirable occupent of the white man's burying grounds, but the careless manner in which the living look after the graves of deceased relatives. A few days ago the writer had occasion to visit the Topeka Cemetery, and we are forced to confess that the lots and graves ‘of the colored people are a blot on the record of our progress, thrift and energy. The tall weeds, old bottles, pieces of broken China, ctc gave it the aprearance of an oki vacant fot used as adumping ground for the i ity srubbish Numerous graves have no head-loards and a low place thichly studded with weeds ‘tells the story of a meplected grave Jt ian easy matter to hecp these graves in good con- dition ata cost of about $2.50 per year, and it will not require five minutes of your time. We do not mean to infer that allof the colored people neglect the graves of their loved ones,as many of them have nice, well cared for lots, but they are too’ far in the minority, How would you like to have a thousand dollar burial plot witha weed patch on either side? Well, we would not like it, and believe the white people who own nice lots in the cemetery feel the same way. Get busy and beautify the graves of your loved ones. FIRST AFRICAN BAPTIST CHURCH.

No reason to do so, any more than to neglect a sore throat, colic, or any other disease, that the right kind of medicine will cure. Take Wine of Cardui for all your womanly ills. It can never do harm, and is certain to do good. Mrs Sallie H Blatr, of Johnson City, Tenn. writes: "I had suffered from womanly troubles for sixteen months, and had four doctors, but they could not help me, until I began to take Wine of Cardul.

Place of next meeting, Galena, July 24, 1908. Let all of us endeavor to do more this term than we have done in the past, realizing as the Order goes up we go up, and as we go up the race goes up. Fraternally yours in T. C. B. We take this manner of announcing to you of the very excellent sessions of the Fourteenth Annual meeting, which was held in the old historic city of Lawrence, Kansas. This was indeed the most harmonious and business meeting we have ever had. A large attendance of representatives and Past Chancellors greeted us. Peace and harmony prevailed throughout the entire session. Much important business was transacted. The endowment department shows a neat increase over last year, numerically and financially. The important feature of the Grand Lodge was the excellent reports of the Grand Lodge officers and representatives. The Grand Court of Calanthe surpassed by far all former sessions. Much has been accomplished through the untiring effort and noble work of Mrs. M. Matley, the Grand Worthy Counselor. The reports showed the department is in a progressive state. Mrs. Molhe Cox, of Wichita, was elected Grand Worthy Counselor. The Uniform Rank Department is our "West Point." There are five (5) companies in the state, viz. Imperial No. 1, Galena No. 3, Sunlight No. 4, Sunflower No. 5, Morning Glory No. 6. Their showing was very creditable, although only a limited number of their companies was present. Imperial No. 1, Wichita, and Galena No. 3, Galena, entered the contest for the prize. Imperial was awarded the first prize, a silk banner and $10 in cash; Galena second prize, $15 in cash. A battalion was organized; Captain T. H. Young, of Galena, was elected Major. Let us again call upon you to take more interest in the Uniform Rank and help to make it a success. The president of the Rescue Home requests each member of the executive committee to meet Tuesday, October 15th, at 3 p.m. at the home Messrs. Victor Washington and Tully McAdoo left Sunday for Kansas City. Mo. where they have a contract to paper and paint several flats for Dr. Birch and others.

Shields were united in marriage on last Thursday by Rev. Hayes, at the residence of Mrs. J. Jackson. Only a few friends witnessed the wedding. Mrs. B. Dudley-Mimms left for Topeka and desires to thank all the church members and friends for their kindness during her mother's illness and at her death. Mrs. Broiles, wife of Prof Broiles of Ash Grove, is visiting with Mrs. White, at 92.1 Washington avenue. We regret very much that Mrs. Hinton is yet on the sick list. Rev.

Independence business men are looking forward to the day when they will have a good grocery, a blacksmith shop, a dentist and a drug store. A man walked into a dental parlor a few days ago and asked to have his tooth extracted. The dentist, who was smoking turned around far enough to see the man applying had a dark skin, and said, "Come back again, I'm busy smoking." There was a time in this place when Negroes could have their teeth treated, but it is a crime for blacks to have tooth ache here. This is true. We only wish it was a joke. Mr. Tillman of West Maple is the gentleman who had this little experience with one of our dentists and they all agree. Now, why not offer some inducements to one of our dentists. Let us learn to patronize our race like other nations. Try the Italian, the Greek, and he stands pat for the race. We mean all Negroes ought to stand for the race. The preacher from his pulpit should not neglect to occasionally drop a good strong hint. He could do a great deal of good. I once heard one of our most able clergymen say from the pulpit: "No, never will I fool with a nigger doctor. What can he do? Kill you, that's all." I asked him how he could afford to say much a thing. If his patron should say he was no good but to send souls to hell he could have no success no matter what he might know. Mrs. H. T. S. Johnson, who for some time has been ailing, was taken seriously ill Thursday evening. Under the treatment of our Dr. Coldwell she is now improving. Mrs. Ida Hayes, of Rondal, La., is visiting her sister, Mrs. H. T. S. Hats I have the noblest and best line of headgear ever shown in Tokyo and cordially invite every in the city to attend my Opening which takes place Sept. 27, 28 and 30. Here you will find over 100 of the latest styles in Fall and winter HATS. They are the same hobby recipes and styles that are being worn down East, and as to their quality, I challenge Topeky. My street and dress hats cannot be beaten in neither quality, style or price. Hats that other stores sell for $10, you can get them at my store for $8. Why pay extortionate prices when you can get the same thing for two or three dollars less? It costs you nothing to inspect my goods and I more than pleased to show them and quote you prices whether you buy or not. My stock of Plumes, trimming, Ete., in the best money can buy. No old carried over stuff, but new and fresh from the big wholesalers in the East. With every $5 purchase I am going to give an ideal skirt and want supporter. Call and see me. Mrs. L. H.

Hayes with his command had been out scouting. On his return he made no report to Gen Scott, who sent for him. Gen Scott was a veritable mart in enforcing military discipline. Admiral Hayes was rented in the commander's headquarters. Scott said: "Col Hayes, I have received no report of your expedition against the padra." "I did not think it worth while," said Hayes. "Every officer of the army is required to make a full report of everything to his superior officer. Please make your report verbally." Hayes began by paying that he struck the padre's trail on a certain day, followed it for two days and on the third day, while his command was resting at noon and taking their sleets, the old padre came down on them. The "boys" gathered themselves together and whipped the Mexicans off, killing quite a number of the padre's command. His own loss was insignificant, one killed and three wounded. "Surprised you, oh!" exclaimed Scott. "Yes; we were not expecting him." "Where were your tickets?" "Did not have any." "What!!" shouted Gen. Scott "A colonel in the regular army of the United States go into camp in the heart of the enemy's country and never place a picket on guard? What would you do if surprised when asleep!" "Shoot the frat man that waked me up," was the cool reply Photographs The price at my Studio is cheap, but the work is of the highest quality.
