THE OPEKA PLAINDEALER. A Glance at Some of the State Officers Members of the Legislature Who are Doing Work for the People. The PAMSERVER has been watching the representatives of the various districts and below we present a sketchn of a few of the really good men who are giving their constituents a square deal. They are not tricksters, but men who place honor before money and believe in laws that will bring peace, prosperity and plenty into the homes of the great mass of wage earners. It is this class of man that the people, regardless of creed, color or condition, should keep in office; and as long as they do there will be no trouble about curbing the trusts --- HON. J. S. MIMMON. speaker of the house, has covered himself with glory during the extra session. He is a man of exceptional ability, a parliamentarian and one of the squarrel and most impartial rulers that ever presided over any gathering. 1 HUME BUNSON Judge Beason has been in Kansas for the past thirty years. Down at Ottawa where it lives he is by the confidante and respect of all people. He has filled a most every political post in within the gift of the people. He has served from the hoist of his car to the P. S. State and in elevation to the Supreme Court as one of the most graceful retos of Goymer Block HONORABLE MEMBER Hon. Charles W. Barnes, Superintendent of Insurance for Kansas and candidate for reelection, is one of the most popular of our state officials. He was in the insurance department as deputy under Webb McNall and made a splendid record. As the present Commissioner he has continued the good work. Kansas can do no better than to reelect Charlie Barnes. CHILD JUNIOR JOB NEEDED. Chief Justice Johnston, of the Kansas State Supreme Court is one of the most talked of men in Kansas just now. His years of splendid service to the state as a member of the Supreme court has given to the people of Kansas a most excellent opportunity to know and appreciate his rare talents. He is thoroughly honest and conscientious in all he does. His devotion to the interest of the state and of her people have made him beloved by all. Should the people elect him for the next United States Senator they will have the services of a splendid man. HON. GEORGH HEMB. Hon. George Plumb, of the 51st representative district, Lyons county is a farmer and stock raiser. His nomination added much strength to the ticket. He is one of the strong men of the House and a great friend of the laboring man. Mr. Plumb is an honest, upright and a good business man, also a large tax payer. His friends are assisting on running him for State Senator. He is one of the foremost men of Lyon county. His home is at Emporia, Karnes, where he has lived for a number of years. 20,000 No better man could have been elected to that high and honorable position than him. He is a man of the people and gives justice to them at all times. While Mr. Smith was in active practice in his home town his opinion was sought by some of the most prominent attorneys in this state on important cases. When the party nominated him they knew what they were doing from the fact he added strength to the ticket. We need more men of the type of Judge Smith. He has always been a friend of the Negro and we find that on more than one occasion he has shown his friendship to the Negro. Men like Judge Smith should be kept on the supreme bench and our Supreme court should be taken out of politics. LIFETENANT GOV. 117/08/11 The special session of the Kansas Legislature has been remarkable for the graceful and efficient manner in which the providing officers have discharged their several duties. None has been more conspicuous for efficiency and fairness than Hon. W. J. Fitzgerald Lieutenant Gov- ronment and the Presiding Officer of the Senate Governor Fitzgerald in to Kansas away back in the only days, when it took a large amount of phi k and energy to stay. He made good in the draft and what belt of southwestern Kansas He is interested in farming and stock raising in his section of the the splendid business capitaity has been a stepping stone to his political success. He has succeeded because he was a man and stood always for a square deal to all classes of citizens. No man will receive a more hearty welcome from the great masses of Kansas regardless of party lines, when they come to make their choice for Lieutenant Governor, than Mr. Fitzgerald. Mr. Fitzgerald I will succeed himself. DON, J DLNSTON Hon C. E. Denton, secretary of state, is now serving his first term and is making one of the best the state has ever had. He is from Attica, Kansas, and is one of the leading republicans of the state. He is one of the most influential men of the state, a friend to the laboring man. He started out in life as a poor boy, and has earned his money and standing through hard work and honest dealing. The people of Kansas are proud of him as he is one of her safe leaders. He has always been a friend of the colored man. He comes of fine blood which is easily told. He will have no opposition for second term; it is rumored that he will lead the ticket. Mr. Denton is a diplomat, courteous, poite and a gentleman in the highest sense of the term. He belongs to no faction and is always fair and impartial in his dealings with state politics and business. We hope to see Mr. Denton governor of the state at some future day. HON. W W GORDON Hon. W. W. Gordon of Rosedale, Kansas, who represents the Eleventh district, is one of the most influential members of the house. He is a contract r and builder and also a thorough business man. He represents his constituents in such a man TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING, JANUARY 24, 1908. Good service and weigh all the possessions carefully before leaving. He always found on the floor the place of any prophet in that come in the house H. M. Pully, who is now serving as the assistant of the tariff from the evidence, Mongolia, Kansas. He is a doctor and man and is in the office. He sicks cases of diseases and knwls other from Mr. Pully is a man who is approach, and is one of the commenters. He will be reelected without opposition and will be one of the contestants for the leader on the Republican ticket. His many friends hope to see him with something better before he retires from the political arena. All of Kansas is proud of him and it is rumored that the Democrats will have no opponent for him. JACKSON The attorney general of Kansas, Colorel F. E. Jackson, now serving his first term, has done more work and accomplished more since he has been in office than any of his predecessors. No one thought that the young country lawyer from Kareka, Greenwood county would rise to fame so fast and find so many civil doctors and defenders of the constitution until he began to probe and the citizens of Kansas never knew that so much was going on and what could be accomplished to bring civil courts to justice until General Jackson shied and them. He is a man well wired in the law and has but few capitals and when he once brings a case will stick through the supercoat of the United States. He is a courman who is and prefers to have no opposition for the trial. NATOP LINK No man in the Senate of this state has given his constituents better service than Senator Bury F. Blaker of the Seventh district, and in people should feel more proud that those of Linn and Anderson counties. He is ever alert and good after things in the manner employed in personal matters. He is never absent when the time comes to vote, and is always recorded on the side of the people. Mr. Blaker has served in two sessions of the legislature, and to see him take hold of the reign, one would think he had served in the senate for years, and his advice is sought by men who have been coming to the legislature for the past twenty years. Senator Blaker comes from the parent and best blood of old Pennsylvania, and away back in the 60's when the Union was threatened, and a race denied the right of liberty, he marched to the front and served his country well. Senator Blaker resides in Pleasanton, where the fruits of his great business ability can be observed on all sides. The Blaker Milling Co. of which he is head, is one of the largest concerns in the state. They own and operate lumber yards and grain elevators in six different towns in Kansas and Missouri with headquarters at Pleasanton. Then four story flooring mill, large grain elevator and magnificent lumber yards at this place are a credit to Kansas and the city in which they are located. The writer has known Senator Blaker since infancy, and he has the admiration and respect of every man, woman and child in that section of the state. He is fair, equate and honorable with all men. M.

ARTHUR CAPPER, One of the Leading Newspaper Men of the West-He Will Be Sent as a Delegate to the National Convention from the First District Without Opposition. He fathom the end of the utter and old people of this country do not much for love. He has held every ill health he would permit and they have him may not so many times that it actually refuse the job. Senator Winker says that when his term expires, that he has the right with politics, but that he should keep him in the harrow. HOS CHY A KYKLH Hon Clark A Ryker who is set in motion or railroad commercy is from Hammons on Rivers, Kansas, and was in good health in the hummer business before he took this position. He is making one of the best returns showers a state has ever had, and is a clean, progressive business man. He is honest and faithful and does not beat the bushes or the people to the galleries. He is fair between the railroads and the people and believes that all should have equal standing on earth. No one can question his actions since on the board, his vote has always been for the best interests of Kansas. He will be re-elected to the office without opposition. Mr. Ryker is from the MR. ARTHUR CAPPER, One of the West—He Will Be Sent as a D from the First District Without people, for the people and will be returned to the office by the people. He has never been questioned as to his h pesty in his dealings on the board. MON, T, A MCNFAL. One of Kansas' most substantial citizens is Hon. Thomas A. McNeal, state printer. He is an Ohioan by birth and started in life as a farm boy. After attending school he became a teacher, and afterwards was an editor and author. In the early days he came to Kansas, when it required men to stay. First settled in Marion county, from whence he came to this city and established The Breeze, now The Man and Breeze, of which he is editor, he has served in the legislature as representative and as private secretary to Governor Hoch, from which position he was elected state printer. As a speaker and writer he has but few equals, he is author of a book, "McNeal's Fables," which is highly valued by every one who has read it. He can hold an audience longer than most any speaker by injuring a few of his original stories which always bring down the house. Mr McNeal is a man of high integrity, upright and reliable a staunch Republican of the Lincoln type. He is an ever Advertising he has been taken for some of dollars he has been paid by the tax payers. He was taken by the army, and of the allowance he had, has been paid into a head light on the trunk. If he is present to the party, the capable of not being in the trunk.

He is a parliamentarian, a lawyer and one who believes to represent the people. He is on most all of the important committees. He will be returned to the senate without opposition from his own party or the Democrat so well pleased are they that he can have it on a silver platter. the Leading Newspaper Men of the elegate to the National Convention Opposition. HON. GEORGE I. LUCKER. We are always glad to note the progress, thrift and energy of the native Kansas and at present our attention has been directed to Hon. E. Tucker, the brilliant young editor of the Kureka Herald and Senator from the Twenty-fourth district. He comes from the best blood in the land—those who settled in Kansas away back in the 60's and took a firm stand for freedom. Mr. Tucker's father was a member of the Kansas Legislature before he was born and any measure affecting the rights of any people always found in him a strong opponent; and taking up where his father left off, the present Senator has always stood for the rights of men. Greenwood county feels an especial pride in Senator Tucker, and since being elected on their representative he has become known throughout the state, and we all join those whom he has so faithfully served in desiring to send him higher. Mr. Tucker is one of the holdout and famous men that ever hold a seat in the Kansas Legislature. He votes with the people on all propositions, in trustworthy and ```markdown ``` Communal on Page 2 Arthur Copper Has Placed His Publications in the Front Rank.

When a young man like Mr. Capper can start from a poor boy as a printer to a reporter on the Daily Capital, and then, in less than a quarter of a century, become its sole owner, and owner of all the above periodicals and of the new building that is being erected at the southeast corner of 5th and Jackson, he is certainly worthy of any honor that he might seek from the hands of the people of this great state. He is a man who is modern and unerring, strictly limits from morning till night and then some. He is honest, upright, a gentleman of integrity, a believer in the doctrine of live and let live, and four treatment for all is his golden rule. His employees never complain about not getting enough pay. His pay roll is large and all on it get enough to lay by for a rainy day and buy homes.

Mr. Capper's friend are region, and those of the First Congressional District have decided to have him present them in the Republican National Convention in Chicago, next June, and he will have no position as he has worked for years as chairman of the Congressional committee of the district, for the love of his party.

The reason based two days and was intervening from start to finish. There are over twenty-five progressive farmers who represent thousands of dollars worth of valuable property, to the real and personal Messrs Robert Turner and Arthur Jimery acted as secretaries of the meeting. This organization is characterized under the laws of Kansas for the purpose of purchasing farms and making improvements for the upbuilding of the race. They contend plate buying 200 acres of farm land close to a large city at a cost of $400 dollars for the purpose of breeding fine stock for the members of the association, and also intend seed of various kinds which will be profitable to those who have been in the old rut, growing stuff that did not bring sufficient money for the labor put forth and will yield large profit to the stockholders. Stock is now being offered and taken readily by the farmers of the state. Some very important discussions on farming were made by various persons Among some of them were "Why so Many of our Farmers Fail," by R P Brown Morris of Edwardsville; "Farm Labor W. T. Turner North Topeka; "Agricultural Training for the Farming Element," Principal W. R Carter; "What this Organization should be to Our Farmers," Percy Lewis of Kansas City and read by J. J. French.

While there was a large attendance by the farmers but a few of the easy people attended the meeting while in great benefit to the case. There was a roteable abuse of lawyers doctors, politicians, professionals and city planners, who had not met an opportunity to talk to a meritorious like this, as most of them should be on the farm, gett three times a day and a good deal to do with most of them do not, at in the city We advise our local young men and ladies, too, to get hold of a piece of farm land, as farms and tractors are the cornerstone of any race or nation.

Milligan, of Anderson county, is one of the leaders of the House, and those all keep a sharp eye on all that pertains to the interest of his county.

Instruction, is undoubtedly making the most brilliant record of my person who has titled the office of State Superintendent. In all parts of the state there is an educational awakening that is unprecedented and an enthusiasm for better real life has been produced which is without equal in the educational history of the state. Among the movements undertaken by Hon. Farechild is a vigorous educational campaign for the betterment of rural schools. The chief remedy proposed is the consolidation of small districts into very much larger units, so that the rural population may have access to good graded schools, and High school work be brought much closer on them. The plan proposed implies that the pupils shall be transported to consolided schools. The Institute Consent of July has been revised so as to emphasize methods of teaching. In order to do so, less readable work is proposed, especially for experienced teachers. Model school work is proposed as a department feature of the County Institutes and at the County Teachers Instructor, new summer, it is suggested that the teachers may also be able to teach the sub J. on carefully at their school. During the holiday a meeting of County Superintendent and Institute workers was called by Supt. Purchall and plans for closing in results were and at that meeting A meeting of County Superintendent Lords was held in August and plans were worked out for more efficient county supervision. The Standardization of the Course of Study for the common schools was taken and the State Board of Education authorized a course which is to be held in all the common schools of the state. A Course of Study for one of the third class, also been prepared and the Board of Elsas ent is now preparing a High school course and to be used in all the High Board of the state.

Many times in the past I have been asked by young men desiring to learn the profession of Pharmacy, who did not the necessary means nor time to take a collegiate course, if it is possible to learn Pharmacy by working in a drug store. I have applied that under ordinary circumstances it is possible, but a very tedious and up-hill undertaking, especially for a colored man in a white man's store. This expression of a desire to learn an honorable and profitable professional business, coming from so many, coupled with the great difficulty I have experienced in finding Pharmacists 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 at my store, 921 Kansas Ave. Edwin S, Lee, D.

For Western Trade Journal in a recent article had the following to say concerning the company: From time to time Worries Trade Journal has had occasion to speak in favorable terms of several Nevada companies. We have not hesitated to recommend the stock of our trades our investigations, of those enterprises have been such as to convince us that as legitimate promising mining enterprises nothing more secure is on the market. It is therefore a satisfaction to be able to add one more promising Nevada company to our list of reliable companies. In this connection we refer to the Freeman Mining, Mining and Development Company rated under the laws of Atzera Capital Stock K 1,500,000 0 (0 > \ln(1 + n) \ln(1 + n) + n + n + n + n) \neq 0 * \ln(1 + 1) \neq 0 * \ln(1 + n) and \ln(1 + n) and \ln(1 + n) * \ln(1 + n) = \ln(1 + n) + n * \ln(1 + n) = \ln(1 + n) + n * \ln(1 + n) = \ln(1 + n) + n 100 ported parts being invoked on the part of the Western and Journal, and furness impels this statement that the most scathing examinat in convines us that the company offers the best form of investment in New Mexico mining stock within our knowledge. For notation is not made plain by this free and uncollected editorial, address the Freeman Mining Milling and Development Co., Room 1, McIntyre-Barnett Building, Colorado Strings, Colo. We consider but the interest of the subscribers who may be undecided how to invest in the Nevada silver and gold mines when, without insinuating aught in detraction of other companies, we borrow our undreserved indorsement upon the Preemin Company's proposition. In view of the foregoing, we feel it a duty to advise our readers who desire an interest in one of the best Nevada mining companies to lose no time in incurring some of these shares, which offer the very best security for the least money that ever came under the purview of this paper.
