TOPEKA PLAINDEALER Editorial Observations of Kansas and Oklahoma! Historical Society State Houses VOLUME XII. WELLINGTON This was our first time to stop at this place. It is a thriving bung. Division Santa Fe shops, planing mills and other industries. We found the beautiful home of Mr. F M Roberts, grand treasurer of the endowment bureau of the K. of P. of Kansas, presided over by his queenly and cultured wife, who prepared us a fine breakfast. Mr. Roberts owns one of the leading restaurants in the city known as the T. Bone. He owns good and valuable property, having lived there for the past twenty three years. Everybody loves him because he is progressive. Sherman Teal, the leading barber, is an old timer, owns one of the best shops, serves the best trade and is the owner of several pieces of paying property. He has an industrious wife and six bright children. We took dinner at his neat, copy home. His good wife and daughters certainly understand how to prepare a satisfying and appetizing meal They are old and progressive citizens. Our old friend, T. J. Jordan, who was an employee of Legislature two terms, is coming two the front as a successful raiser of hogs. He has lived in the town eighteen years J R. Oldham, head miller of one of the largest flouring mills of the Southwest, has just completed a fine residence on South C street. Jesse Brower owns 320 acres of good farm land and city property. Louis Strange who is engaged in building cement sidewalks, brick and plastering, owns good property, well fixed. Has lived in the city twenty eight years. The colored people seem to be doing well There are very few loafers, all seem to be working people. CALDWELL Caldwell, was our next stop. Here is a town with a few colored people, most of whom own their homes. Here we found our old friend E. Noland, who is certainly a hustler. He plasters and does brick work. He has a good home on Arapahoe, eleven lots and a nice, four room cottage. He raises cows, calves hogs and horses. We breakfasted with him and his good wife, who takes pride in making it pleasant for their visitors. They are up and coming to the front. Mm. M. J. Otto, an industrious widow, conducts a nice, roomy house and owns good property. The right man could interest him by talking matrimony. Leaving Caldwell, we continued south into Oklahoma. Here you are invited to take the Jim Crow car, a coach divided in two, compartments in the front end of which the colored passengers ride, while the whites use front end for a smoker. The train crew usually notifies the colored passengers to move before they leave Caldwell, which is wrong. No interstate passenger should be asked to leave a car before entering Oklahoma and the first station in that state. Passengers should not attempt to move while the train is in motion. Let the train crew move the women when the station is reached. Nothing is said about moving back when coming to Kansas. We noticed this was not done in a single instance. There was talk about the grandfather clause. As we said before it will be hard to enforce such laws TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING, DEC 9, 1910. when ninety per cent of the colored people read and write and forty per cent own property, especially the farms The progressive colored men are going to vote in Oklahoma, and will have a say as to who shall assess their property for taxation and vote for the best man, be he a Republican or a Socialist, so that he is a decent one. The Democratic Haskellites have decided to rule or ruin, but it is only a question of time. A few would-be Smart Alecs tried to belittle some of the prominent men by asking them to read and write lines of the constitution, or inquiring if their grandfathers were voters prior to 1866. The Haskellites do not need the grandfather clause to help them out, they simply set aside a precinct, township or county aside if it does not help them in the count. ENID Our first stop in the new state is a wide awake and growing town. Mr. F. Everett Purcell, the postmaster, a fine, thorough-bred Kentuckian, of Breckenridge county, Ky., is a young man of thirty two, and a fighter for the principles of the Republican party and for fair play. A number of the colored inhabitants own good property and seem to be moving along nicely. They have groceries, restaurants, rooming houses, pool halls, and barber shops Dr. O. H.

He He has erected a five, two story building which is everybody's headquarters. Heavenly could support a good, clean room house and it is the of the colored people to see to it that one is established, it would help in several ways We visited a few of the farmers, in company with Mr. Goodwin, driving about ten miles to the farm of Rober, Tutt, who owns hundreds of acres of cultivated land; hogs, cows, mules and horses by scores.

His wife likes it and when they have lived there five years with no bad luck he will look back and say he made no mistake. We visited the city school, where the high school and grades are combined. Prot. F F. Bailey is principal and Prot E Hall is at the head of the high school. These gentlemen are educators and leaders of the race and are doing everything for its advancement. Mr. and Mrs Hayden have a good farm, well improved. She still keeps one of the best hothouses in that part of the country—almost every variety of flowers the year around.

Why did big Jim Mason go to Wyandotte county to swear out a warrant for the editor of this paper for malicious label? Why did he not swear to it in Shawnee county, where the headquarters of the fake order are located and where the two Jims operate from; also where the paper is published and the editor resiles We answer for the Two Jims' order. They knew the people of Shawnee county were on to their shipshod methods, also how much they have laked people out of in this city. From the way things are going it is a one Jim's order. Little Jim is the president, secretary and treasurer. The office is in his office. All mandates are issued through him. He is the legal adviser, utility man. We admit that there are some suckers who will bite in clear water. We wonder if there is a sane man or woman who believes that an insurance company can exist long if honest methods are employed with only two or three hundred dollars in treasury to pay off more than 200 policy holders amounting to thousands of dollars? Those who continue keeping up the payments will find at the end a meal sack with no bottom. We hope that the colored churches will get together and crush out the white slave traffic among the white people in Oklahoma City. It is a disgrace the way young white girls are being carried to that city to be bartered away. Something must be done. Mothers are going into Oklahoma City every week in search of their girls who have been enticed away. Mrs A Chavers of Leavenworth, spent a few days last week with Mrs Perre Allon.
