PEKA PLAINDEALER State House VOLUME XII. Mr. Dawson's Candidacy! The candidacy of the Honorable John S. Dawson for attorney general has been the topic of conversation among Kansas voters for some time. His unlimited experience of national and state laws, as well as commercial law makes him eminently qualified to fill the position which he seeks. He was connected with the attorney general's office for a number of years and has drawn up documents that have stood the test in the highest courts of the nation. Kansas needs a man of wide experience in the office of attorney general, where great questions are raising every day. He is now attorney for the board of railroad commissioners, where he has given all of his time on the adjustment of railroad rates. He is fair between the people and the corporations, only wishing to see that justice is done on all sides. He is a self made man. Though young in years, he is quite experienced and has stood the hardships on the plains of Kansas and has helped her grow from barren soil and rainless skies to a prosperous, fertile land where all are happy and want to see those horny-handed sons of toll placed where they may continue to assist in the development of Kansas. In the county from which he hails there are many colored citizens who settled there in the early days and shared the hardships with young Dawson. He says he knows no color and accepts the man who tries to do the right and earn an honest living. They all speak in the highest terms of his loyalty to them and say that when the time comes to vote he will get their votes. Mr. Dawson does not believe in talking and promises. He placed a colored man on his farm and told him that as soon as he earned money enough he would sell him the farm, thus giving him a chance to buy it. He does not believe in giving colored people hot air and no chance to earn a living; he says that has been done too much. He receives letters from all over the state assuring him of their support. John S Dawson was born in Grantown, Scotland, in 1869. He was educated at Knockando High school and Robert Gordon's college, Aberdeen. He emigrated to this country and settled in Kansas in 1888. He taught school until 1898, when he was admitted to the bar, having been tutored therefor by Honey J. Harwi, Esquire, the leader of the bar in northern Kansas for a quarter of a century. Returning to the principalship of schools in Hill City in the autumn of 1898, Mr. Dawson resigned at Christmas to accept a clerkship in the state treasury at Topeka for the purpose of further qualifying himself for the profession of law. In 1902, Mr. Dawson was appointed chief clerk in the office of the attorney general; later he served as second assistant; and in June, 1905, was appointed special assistant attorney general. Mr. Dawson is recognized as a thoroughly competent and conscientious official. The sewing circle meets this after noon at the home of Mrs. Cora Shields on Van Buren street. The Pew Fund club met Wednes- TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING, JAN. 28, 1910. Rev. G. W. Henry preached Sunday at 11 a.m. to a large congregation of interested listeners. He again occupied the pulpit Sunday evening. The opening services have been postponed, owing to the fact that the windows cannot be obtained from the factory at Kansas City before the first of the month. The rally will take place as planned, but the consecration services and exercises of dedication will be held at a later date. Let all the clubs and those who are soliciting be ready to report. Sunday School at ten a.m. The B. Y. P. U. at seven p.m. The young people are requested to attend. A cordial invitation is extended to all to attend each or any service. A most excellent musicale was given last night by the Ideale Jubilee singers directed by Madame Electro Page-Perry. The lecture room was filled to overflowing and to say that the program was highly enjoyed is to give but a mild expression of the manner in which the audience received it. Those old plantation melodies made the hearts of the older people swell as they lived over past experiences, while the younger people recalled stories related by their grandparents. It was full of life and sweetness all through and one finds it difficult to express in words the enjoyment which it inspired. Those who participated in the program acquitted themselves in a manner that was exceedingly creditable. The proceeds of the affair will be used for the purchase of chandellers for the new church. NOTICE. To the Editor: In your issue of the 7th we noted with much surprise a notice stating that the Second Baptist church of Paola was in need of a good pastor. In justice to the church and pastor, we wish to state that Rev. Stokes has been our pastor for over two years and that during that time the church has never been in a more harmonious and prosperous condition. We do not know who wrote the notice, as it was not signed, but we are sure it was a snake in the grass and we are too busy in the Master's field to hunt snakes. Therefore we ask you to publish this in denial. Signed by deacon board. JOHN ROBINSON ALEX FLOYD MILES COOPER JCHN DILLARD Board of trustees: PLEAS WEBSTER LEWIS THOWLING BEN COOPER The Murine Ball. Wednesday evening of last week the society folk of Topeka graciously bowed to the Murine club and declared them the emperors of entertainers. The occasion was the opening of the social season at Metropolitan hall by this organization. Topeka has never witnessed such a grand affair which easily makes the Murine, the leader of all social clubs among the upper crust. The decorations were goddy and the artistic arrangement showed the cunning and skill of a master hand. A large bell ten feet in diameter hung in the center of the MINISTERIAL LEAGUE PROGRAM: January 10, Paper, W. H. Housley.

Alex. ander are responsible for the magnificent success of the party and their untiring efforts has made the Murine, the swellest Aro-American social club in the West, and they have given to Topeka the swellest parties in her social history. Murray's Fractions. Mr. Henry Murray, who has long claimed the honor of being the best mathematician of his race in the city, was thrown into a mathematical spasm at this office yesterday at high noon. Murray made a proposition to the clerks that they all take ten problems in fractions, and the one solving the least was to banquet the whole force. He was given one week in which to prepare and showed up on time. After the smoke had cleared away our good friend had one correct, while the girls had all save two. Upon seeing the result, he quickly donned his coat, and be fore anyone could speak he was turning the corner at Tenth and Kansas avenue, leaving his conquerors waiting for the proposed dinner, The girls have his 'copy' on file in the office, and it shows that he did not even know how to write down the problems. Those who care to, may call and examine the same. No doubt, Mr. Murray is a sadder but wiser man. Mrs. Ida Scott and baby returned from a visit with friends at Emporia. Miss Cora Jones has been ill, but is able to agin be at her part of duty in this office. Miss Enid Link and Mr. Joseph McKnight are among the graduates of February '10 class of Topeka High School. Mrs. Mollie Walker, of Wane. maker, Okla., is the guest of her sister, Mrs. E. B. Loey. She will remain about a month. The funeral of little Alphonso Ester, who died in Ohio, was held yesterday afternoon from the residence of his aunt, Mrs. Gray, on Monroe street. He was a bright little boy, and his relatives have the sympathy of their friends. The remains were interred in Richie's cemetery. Meadames Anna Stevens and Mamie Fullbright are arranging for a big entertainment on the 31st at Gibson's chapel. Mr. George M. West, after an illness of about two weeks, passed away Thursday night at his home on Minor street. He was forty years of age, and leaves a wife and son, a mother and other relatives. The funeral services were held from his mother's residence, 628 Cherry St., Rev. J. S. Dorsey officiating. The attendance was very large and the floral offeringe were various and beautiful. Many were tokens from his white friends. The family has the heartfelt sympathy of the community. There are still a great many cases of sickness in the city. Mr. and Mrs. William Nearguard are daily expecting their daughter, Mrs. Sopronia N. Day home for a visit. Dr. W. C. Scales and wife entertained Tuesday afternoon and evening in honor of her sister, Mrs. Maud Jarrett of Kansas City, and Mrs. T. J. McAllister of St. Joseph, Mo. The time was most delightfully spent in guessing games, music, whist and pleasant conversation. Delicious refreshments were served to the many happy guests, who departed at a very late hour. J. T. Cooper and wife entertained Friday evening at a six o'clock dinner. Covers were laid for four. Later in the evening a number of others joined those present and a most delightful evening was spent by all. The honorary guests were Mrs. McAllister of St. Joseph and Mrs. Jarrett of Kansas City, who were house guests of Mesdames Scales and Cooper. During the week several receptions were given in their honor.

Smith, of Cheyenne, Wyo., has been named asthe alternate for the next Wyo- talog vacancy, which will occur in a few months. Senator Clark of Wy oming made the appointment. The older officers here say that the @ntrance of a Negro cadet into the core has always occasioned trouble. The moment the black enters the academy he “goes into Coventry" — effectually ostracised until he fs graduated or dismissed. it Is both encouraging and grati- fying to note the entrance of one of ourraceto the Military academy. We hope that the president will ace bo it that the officers give this young | manasquare deal. I¢ is ashame to have four regiments of colored] oldiers and only about four commis- 1 moned officers that are colored Che four regiments ehould have all ; solored officers, The Negeo wants y and he abould be allowed an|: postamity to carn it.
