PEKA PLAINDEALER PASSING OF THE CALAMITY HOWLERS! The Results of the Election Tuesday Means That Stubbs, Bristow and Dolley are Things of the Past-Kansas is Glad. The people of Kansas should feel proud of what took place Tuesday even if Stubbs did escape by a mere scratch. We can rest assured that his wailing and howling will soon be a thing of the past. The business man, the corporation man, the laboring man, President Ripley and the Santa Fe Railway Co., can have some peace even if they are devoid of political sense. The result Tuesday means the winding up of the career of Joe Bristow, Stubbs and several of the lesser disturbers of business interests. State Chairman Henderson Martin and Secretary W. H. Peperell are to be congratulated upon the wise, manly and conservative sight they made for Senator Hodges. They had no money and only a few newspapers to espouse their cause or Mr. Hodges would have been elected. Mr. Hodges can justly feel proud of the sight he made. Had he spoke in Shawnee county two weeks previous his majority would have reached 1,500. He is one of the most polished and convincing talkers that ever mounted a rostrum. He is polished, educated and refined and could represent Kansas anywhere and in a manner that no one would feel ashamed—a thing that cannot be said of the present Governor. We are exceedingly thankful that Joe Dolley was defeated for the legislature. He too was a howling farce—an abstract of mistakes, a political accident. We won't be asked out of the the speaker's office at the next session should we ask that a few places be given the colored people during the session. "Dolley and the bar won't be thar" to molest us. We are greatful to the colored voters for taking a stand against a man who is under suspicion of being implicated in a lynching. Stubbs is one of the wisest machine men Kansas ever had. He keeps a club over all of his appointees who fear him as a woman does a mouse. The remainder of the Republican ticket was elected by the usual majority. They are men of honor and tried, true Republicans. Teddy lost at every place he spoke. President Taft must feel good over the political downfall of Roosevelt who coused all the disturbance in the party. We don't want calamity howlers in the party. Stubbs and Dolley are in the has been crowd. The ticket will not be Stubbs and Roosevelt at the next Republican National convention. The anarchists may use them, the Republicans will not! VOLUME XII. PASSING OF THE CALAMITY The Results of the Election Stubbs, Bristow and the Past--K The people of Kansas show Tuesday even if Stubbs did not rest assured that his wailing and the past. The business man, man, President Ripley and the some peace even if they are result Tuesday means the wristow, Stubbs and several other interests. State Chairman Henders Peperell are to be congratulated for the servative sight they made for money and only a few newspapers. Hodges would have been elected proud of the sight he made. Two weeks previous his majority is one of the most polished and mounted a rostrum. He is poised to represent Kansas anywhere would feel ashamed—a thing the Governor. We are exceedingly thanked for the legislature. He too was mistakes, a political accident, the speaker's office at the next places be given the colored pee and the bar won't be thar" to us. We are greatful to the campaign a man who is under scrutiny. Stubbs is one of the had. He keeps a club over all as a woman does a mouse. The ticket was elected by the usual honor and tried, true Republican. Teddy lost at every place feel good over the political down the disturbance in the party. In the party. Stubbs and Dolly. The ticket will not be Stub Republican National convention the Republicans will not! LEAVENWORTH.

Campbell's paper, the Monitor Free Press, Wellington: Hon. Charles Cartis, senior Unit- ed States senator from Kansas, is not as well know personally in this section, probably, a in other parte of the atate, but be unquestionably atrenghened his hold om the voter of his party by the speech he made Monday afternoon in Armory hall, Mr. Cartis told hie hearers some. thing about the difficulties that were experienced in drafting a eats tsfactory tariff bill, Pown Eaat they wanted the tariff taken off of all meat products xo they could pet Canadian beef and pouliry admitted free, Phen the manufacturers want. ad free raw material which would take asay the protection from what the wortern farmer razees, and toon. ‘The baw ae finally prased was the reeult of combromires, and while it wae not all dat he devired it marked an adyance over the Dingly law and a great advance over ary other tariff act we ever had Uuder the operations of the new Jaw the averiyre importation of art. ick thoteome in free of duty as double what it) was under the old law, ‘The increases of which so much hay been said are nearly all upon Juaurice, the wine and liquer sehedule furnishing nearly one= third of the entite number, Other nomial increasee, especially in the schedule of cotton gooda were for the purpore of correcting errors in the old Jaw, under which the gos- ernment wae yearly defraudad out ofa barge amountef dutics, Vhe mew lawson of the best revenue product aver enieted, Uidee at the goverrimene’s resenne lise beer anceeaeed hy millions tn cvey mont Th takes money to run a natin the the United sta es, tocar. on the various operations of the government, prostde for the army andgcavy and to pay pensions and defray the cost of internal ine provements, ‘Lhis money has got to be raiscd somchow and this new tariff law bas turned a treasury def. icit into a aurplus. Senator Curtis gave the history of an important emendment to the act, giving the President power tu covclude minminum tariff agree- ments with other countries, effectu ally preventing nations like Ger. many from disuriminating against our pork and other meat productr. Such treaty agreements have been concluded with all conntries with which we do bumness and has had rhe effect of giving the farmer the world’s markets for what he raises. The bietory of railroad regula. tion was also reviewed by the Sen. ator, showing how the Republican party had been constantly enlarging the control of the inter-state com. merce commission’ and of the courts over inter.state trattic, Thin legis. lation needs to be wisely drawn on account of the great number of in. terests affevted. State legielaturca and not infrequently congress, are often led by popular clamor to enact lawe that prove to be a menace and have to be repealed at the verg first opportunity. We instanced some legiatation in Kansas aud cautioned hia hearers to look at both sides whei such legielition is demanded —think ahead and try to see how it will work out m practice. ‘7 “Tie Senator told an amusing sp- ecdote or two about hie tiret vent ure into poiltics, how when he was running for county attorney in Shawnee county he got over into Pottawatomis and spent half a day electioneering among people who gouldn’t have voted for him if they had wanted to,and left the audience in pretty good humor, ABILENE, KANS.

See our agents and get one of the Company's dollar tickets, and try for one of the 40 shares that will be given away with the sale of 1000 of our dollar Tickets. Our tickets are worth one dollar after our sale is concluded May 16th, 1911. You can make a dollar payment on a share of stock by sending your ticket to the office of the Smithvale Telephone Co, R. F. D. No. 1. Who will be tagged for the Smithvale Telephone Co. It only costs 25c. Put yourself on record by getting one of these Souvenirs. The Smithvale Telephone Co., owned and operated exclusively by Negroes, is doing a great work and extending to the youths of the race a great opportunity of building up and cementing themselves into one of the biggest corporations controlled by Colored People. In order for anything great to succeed, it must have the confidence of its people accompanied by some money. In the great State Capitol Campaign, many of us paid one dollar for a tag or button in order that the state enterprise may be a success. Let me ask you to think seriously upon a business proposition that will mean much to us as a race. Do you have confidence enough in your race to believe they can bring things to pass? Do you believe that they can control and operate business concerns as well as the white race? If so, think on the business outlook of the Smithvale Telephone Co. owned and controlled by your own race, and allow yourself to be tagged to foster an enterprise that will mean much for our own boys and girls. We hope every person who desires to see Negro Corporations succeal that they may give employment to our own people will pay 25c for one of these souvenirs of the Smithvale Telephone Co.

The steel heating bar which irons the hair, is alone, put into the flame of the alcohol or gun heater. The Aluminum Comb is easily detached from the heating bar, then, after the bar is heated the comb goes back into place and is held by a turn of the handle.

Because it is always good and costs no more than common flour. We visited St. Joseph, Mo, several days ago. This city is one of the wealthiest in the West. It has more jobbing houses than Kansas City and vies with St Louis. Found the colored people there, the rank and file, about as usual, moving no faster but, if anything, a little slower. The Drs. seem to be doing fine. Drs. Crossland, Carlou and Ricketts are the leading physicians of the town. Dr McAlister, the dentist is doing well. J H Ramsey the undertaker, has been in business five years and doing fine. Dr. C. S. Wheatly the chiropodist and mantourist, has the cream of the town as his customers and a fine office in the heart of the town. L. E. Perry is one of the most successful second men in the West. He manufactures mattresses; and in fact is a thorough business man. We wish we had more like him in the West. Mr. and Mrs. G. W. Walker own one of the finest confectionery, bakery, ice cream and soda water businesses in the West, in their own building, a two story brick. Mr. Walker is one of the best colored men in St. Joseph. Prof. Harry Robinson has a beautiful park, with modern conveniences, moving pictures and vaudeville. He also manufactures hair braids, wigs, puffs, and other hair goods. M D Lowry, the tailor, is a success. His business has grown to more than he can do. Cleaning and dyeing is his principal strength. A. D. Hartz is with the United States Savings Bank, and writes fire insurancees. We are proud to note a man of the race in that line. Miss Bearrice Swinny is our correspondent and agent, 2515 Jones St. A drug store would do well if the colored people would quit figthing. A grocery store, well conducted, would do well. A laundry would pay and a blacksmith shop do well. St. Joseph has a good class of white people and will help a worthy business enterprise operated by colored people. The colored man is at fault to a large extent for his backwardness in St Joseph. The Acme Milling Co. Oklahoma City, Okla. Transportation ...YOU CAN'T BEAT THE...
