Furthermore he saves four times the number of postrons assigned to Postmaster Fisher Prior to Mr. Sayres' appointment other Negroes held the postmasterhip at Nicodemus village settled in 1877. Doubtless there are other postoffices in Kansas that have been served by Negroes much earlier than Quindaro. Yours for Truth, OBLIUARY.

PRESIDENT TURT told the people of Mississippi that Jefferson Davis was a hero. Since we come to think the matter over, there was a little more to Jeff than the ordinary plug rebel. What would have be come of the slave proposition had Jeff's nerve failed and be "come in" as requested? --- FROM the awful deeds of blood and rioting at the election in Kentucky Tuesday, it looks as though the South disfranchises the wrong fellow. The white Kentuckian has about as much business with the ballot as a mule in a race against Dan Patch. Disfranchise the whole South until the people become civilized! --- TODAY and tomorrow Topeka will be in the hands of the school teachers. Every teacher in the state will be here, and it is believed that much good will be derived from the coming together of this intellectual body of men and women. Their coming marks a new step toward creating a uniformity in the educational system of our great public schools It is the coming together of the brain of this commonwealth those who are shaping the mind of the men and women of tomorrow and beautiful, hospitaliable Topeka extends to each and all a cordial welcome. --- The Negroes in Missouri are congregating in the cities of that state and missing a golden opportunity in not settling on the thousands of acres of idle land throughout the state. Missouri is a land of plenty, and her soil will make any one independent. The Negro population of Saint Louis, Kansas City and Saint Joseph is far in excess of what it should be, and if Negro leaders and educators would do right, they would institute a vigorous campaign to induce them to go to the farm. The irregular life of the Negro in large cities is sending him to an early grave or he is led off into idleness and crime.

Do not mistake this elegant toilet necessity for some of the cheaply made limitations. It is entirely different, as you will see by the pictures.

They were not content with having a referee who oiled every point against their guests, but raided the "lockers" at the rooms and stole the clothing left therein by some of the young men. A Topeka lady visited the rooms and on taking her departure laid down her purse in order to put on her gloves, and in doing so happened to turn her head. It was all off, the same magic wand that operated in the "lockers" had been waved over it.

They were here to listen to the arguments in the school case which has been hanging fine in the Supreme court for some time. G. C. Benson of Erie and Judge W. J. Jamison of this city presented the colored man's side of the case. A decision is looked for in a few weeks. In speaking of the matter Mr. Williams said: "The colored people of Parsons are not satisfied with the dangerous location of the school, and if the court recies against us man's will move away before they will accept the present conditions. We also wish to brand the statement made by one of our kins of Rooka, who said that the colored people of Parsons were satisfied with the school as being an outfit. He further stated that Elder J. R. Rarwm and his brother were the only kicking. This is another relschool woven out of whole cloth. Every colored man and woman in Labette county is against it." They departed for their home that evening. PROCLAMATION No.1. Aug.9,1909.
