THE TOPEKA PLAINDEALER The State Department Declares Twenty-fourth Infantry Had no Knowledge of the Brownsville Riot. There is ideal of whispering in Washington about the Preciado care. The point of interest consists in the contradictory positions taken by the president and the state department in regard to the Brownsville affair in 1906. Preciado was a citizen of Mexico living in Brownsville, and claims to have been wounded in the hand by soldiers of the United States in the riot at Brownsville; and therefore, demands $10,000 damages from our government. The state department denies that American soldiers did the injury with the knowledge or consent of their officers, or after the officers had such notice of impending trouble as to put them on their guard and oblige them to take precautionary measures. Preciado replies that this position is contrary to the declarations of the president of the United States, and the testimony on the subject. In other words, Preciado takes the Roosevelt view of the riot, while the state department insists on the Poraker view. It is a pretty case.—Salina Journal. Despite all the power of departmental pacification, the "Brownsville affair" will not down. It was supposed by the administration and after the president had dismissed the Negro soldiers "without honor" and Secretary Taft had made an exhaustive report defending and excusing such action, the scandal would be heard of no more. But it has risen like a ghost to haunt the administration, and there is every likelihood that the whole thing will come before congress for anotheriring. The latest development in this unpleasant business is the report of the experts who have been examining the bullets submitted as evidence in the Brownvilleiot. The ex Money for Twenty-third Kansas Soldiers. Gen.Hughes Has Back Money for 370 Soldiers. All members of the late Twenty third Kansas Volunteer Infantry are entitled to double pay from the date of enrollment to date of acceptance by the U. S. government, thus making a duplicate pay due them from the state. General J. W. F. Hughes has the names of 370 men who will be paid immediately upon proof of claim. It will be paid to the soldier or nearest relative. A postal card giving name, company and address will bring the necessary papers. Remember it cost nothing but the price of a postal to Gen. J W. F. Hughes, State House, Topeka Kansas Quarterly meeting was held at St James A. M. K. church of which Rev. Green pastor. Presiding Elder H. W. King preached two soul stirring sermons Rev. J. M. portray that the bullets were not the kind used by the army. General Custer, chief of ordinance, according to the dispatchers from Washington, "concurred in the belief that the bullets were not fired from army rifles." This appears to reopen the original question and makes rather an embarrassing situation for the administration. The just criticism of the president in the Brownville matter is that he acted in too great haste and jumped to conclusions which were not sufficiently warranted to justify summary action. It the moldiers are really guilty of the charges against them and this had been fully proved, the action of the president would have been wise and necessary for the preservation of the army discipline. But there was never any reasonable certainty in regard to the moldiers' guilt. Almost a parallel case was that of the Mississippi river pilot who was ordered suspended by the president because the latter thought the pilot was carcass in bringing his boat too close to that which carried the presidential party. The pilot had no chance for defense or explanation. He was not even heard, although there were several experienced who stated that at no time was there any real danger of a collision. Neither the "Brownville affair" nor that of the suspended pilot is of any vital importance in itself, yet they are striking examples of the "government by impulse" when has been charged so often against Mr. Roosevelt. To a man of his ardent nature deliberation is annoying and judicial power wore some. He is a man of tremendous activity, and in doing big things he makes his quotes of miser.—Kansas City Journal priom in the afternoon. Prof. Theodore Copeland is meeting with mucl. success drilling a large chorus for the cantata to be given at St Luke's A. M. E church Friday evening, Dec. 20th.

Majors as sanitary sergeant that he accepted a few dollars less per month under contract or promise that he would be employed 12 months in each year. We stand corrected if our statement is not correct. The Globe says he is dropped for the season. How is this, Negroes casting one-third of the Republican city vote, putting over twenty white Republicans in office to feed their families, while the Negroes have only one creditable office now left as their meat skin. This is nothing, we are not allowed to do our own thinking. Very soon you will hear the slave driver cracking his whip saying, "Fall in line boys! You're just the whole cheese." The Daughters of Bethel will have a great emancipation celebration new year's day and night. Prizes will be given for the best booth by other societies. Nelson Crews has been invited to speak. Mr. Allen and wife are the proud parents of another girl. A great many of our people have not learned of the death of Sam Westerfield, which occurred in Lincoln, Neb., about two months ago.

JIM CROW IN OKLA HOMA The editor of THE PLAYWRITER returned yesterday from Oklahoma, where he visited every principal city in the state. Next week this paper will contain a review of the progress of the race in this section together with a true statement of the effect of the recent Jim Crow laws. The editor was in the capital building when an order was issued to clear the galleries, and the Jim Crow car law was passed and cheers. Despite the fact that the colored people can valiantly property and contribute largely to the peace and happiness of Oklahoma, President Roosevelt signed the constitution with a knowledge that laws discrim inating against the people of African descent would be passed. LINCOLN INSTITUTE A most practical lesson in sociology was given by President Allen when he suggested to the students of Lincoln Institute five days previous to the Thanksgiving holidays that the, attempt to scatter something in the nature of material comfort among the destitute and suffering poor of Jefferson City. Members of the Senate and Junior classes at once formed themselves into binds various districts of the city, and at devotional exercises gave very intelligent and interesting accounts of the visits they had made to actual needs and the causes thereof. Collections were taken among the students and faculty which before Thanksgiving Day amounted to a neat sum. The visiting committee of Seniors and Juniors supervised by a member of the faculty, then resolved itself into a purchasing committee, and carefully placing its cause before the various members of the city, were able through their kindness in reducing prices to purchase for distribution many necessary articles of clothing, including shoes, hortery, underwear and other indispensable household wear also, twelve baskets were well filled with such good cheese as chicken about, sugar, meal, potatoes and other staples, sufficient for a good dinner and a surplus for another day. The same committee distributed to the needy in accordance with their observation, the articles purchased, and then and there learned that "It is more blessed to give than to receive."

KING ATT'S FOR PLATTT ATTOR, R L. THOMAS Clerk lire published October 25th 1907 ANNOUNCEMENT Many times in the past I have been asked by young men desiring to learn the profession of Pharmacy, who had not the necessary means, time to take an obligate course, if it is possible to learn Pharmacy by working in a drug store. I have replied that indr orinary trainee possible, but a very fe and up hill undertaking, especially for a colored man in a white man's store. This expres- sion of a desire to learn an hon- rable and profitable professional business, coming from so many, coupled with the great difficulty I have experienced in finding Pharmarists for my own store, has impressed me with the idea that a short, clear and concise course of Pharmacy could and should be placed within the reach of those young men or young women who may desire to pursue such a course. A number of these young men have requested that I take a class in practical as well as theoretical Phormaco, Chemistry, and Materia Medica, and with that object in view, I make this announcement. Any persons having a sufficient education to start such a course, who may desire to enter this class will be given full information upon calling on me ..The Topeka.
