The Great Metropolitan Street Railway Company Spent Over a Million in the Two Kansas Cities Last Year---Manager A. D. Griffin Interviews a few City Builders and Politicians.
The year 1919 has been a banner year in the matter of improvements of the service of the Metropolitan Street Railway Company, or Kansas City. The company is one of the great institutions that have done much towards the making of a great city of today, which has made Kansas City the trade center in the Southwest, with all its wealth of natural resources. The Metropolitan company has placed every point in the two Kansas cities, at any interest, within a few moments reach of any point in the city. Mr. John M. Egan, the president of this company, is a man who has given faithful service, through his office in the company, to the people of Kansas City and his efforts have been appreciated, at home and abroad, and the service of the Metropolitan Street Railway is a matter of comment throughout the West, and those merchants and visitors from Oklahoma, Kansas and the Southwest generally, who have occasion to go abroad for business or recreation, never fail to make a stop over in Kansas City in order to take advantage of the quick and convenient street car service afforded, giving an opportunity to visit all the points of interest throughout the day and night. This company last year spent about $1 million in track extensions and replacements but it gave up over $100,000 for new cars and on the full million dollars that it expendled for maintenance in rolling stock practically all was devoted to building and modernizing old cars and putting them in condition for the public content and welfare. The standard of our employees has been greatly advanced, through the consistent use of the present management on the road. The Quantum Boneval Extension, the North Street Extension and the Grand View Extension and Loop, together with the many local improvement and replacements are simple test money to the company's good disposition towards the people of Kansas City, Kansas who have found it willing to respond generously to every request and every just demand.
KANSAS CITY WLSILRN KAILWAY COMPANY.
The Kansas City Western Railway Company is the interim tollly line between Koffers City and Leavenworth, Kansas. This line operates seventeen one per day upon its lines and the service munches a present and early training trip to those who visit Kansas City and Leavenworth and desire to see the signs of both cities in the most convenient way, which is more simply arranged by this system than any other in the two cities. Leavenworth is familiarly called "The Emerson City," for the person that it munches more of tractions and of greater variety than any other city in the West. At this point one may visit the state pensionary at Lansing from miles distant from Leavenworth; the soldiers' Home, and the Federal pensionary, about the same distance, Port Leavenworth, three miles distant, and the many minor attractions both in the city and along the
TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING, JANUARY 27, 1911.
route of the Kansas City-Western Rail way. Letenworth is the oldest city in the state of Kansas, with a population of more than 25,000. It is a quiet and well kept city, with paved streets, shade trees and beautiful lawns, which are well attended at all times of the year. Here is located the Military School and War College, also the United States Military Prison, the greatest in the United States, and one of the greatest in the world.
The rate of this company are built to seat 60 people. Special stop outs are allowed purses who take advantage of the party rates.
The offices of this company will give men who have taken pains to make for their company and system all that would suggest a strict en system of the highest standards of excellence. In the selection of the rate and the equipment of the service they have spared no pence or effort to make them line one of the attractive features of the West, and one of the special attractions of Kansas City, not alone for tourists, but for those who live in the cities and desire cheap and pleasant recreation.
The General Superintendent of this line is Mr. J. W. Richardson, of Leavenworth, a most excellent gentleman who knows every detail of his office and who is always alert to the expansion of the interests of his line. He is pleasant and agreeable in every way and as a business man is perfectly fair in his dealings, giving to every patron of his line just and fair treatment according to the laws and rules which govern the affairs of the company. Every patron of the Kansas City Western Railway is guaranteed polite service and equal treatment. A trip over the system is a pleasure which simply repays the expense, and a city spent along the route of the Kansas City West in Railway will be full of interest, from many points of view covering it to close the principal sight of Kansas City Missouri, taking in the remote peaking house district, the architect system and passing through the beautiful suburban section of the Kansas side. The motley system is recognized as the most unusual of transportation today and the massive city and the well-balanced roadbed of the Kansas City Western Railway, added to the many attractions along the line, combines to make a trip only desirable and lightful.
LEAVENWORTH, KANSAS
Leavenworth is the oldest city in the state of Kansas, with a population of over 25,000. It is a quiet old city, with beautiful streets and well-worn streets, with long lines of shaded trees giving every evidence of wealth and the comfort of its people. Most of its citizens are old timers, people who have always lived there, and as a consequence in their customs they no doubt and slowly going in everything. The Negroes who claim this as their home, mostly portraits of their surroundings and, scarcely by environment, all classes of people live together with the least amount of the town. The city is under the commission of government and candidates are just beginning to get busy for the spring campaign. The latest political development is the appointment of Mr. W. H. Biddle as postmaster in the city. Mr. Biddle is best known to the local representative of the Kansas City Star who was popular in his youth, the postmaster in years. He was also the campaign manager to Hon. D. R. Armstrong present Congressmen from this district and edition of the Leavenworth News. Mr. Biddle is a favorite with the people of the city and many won the platinum accolades following his appointment.
J E. SMYTH.
Candidate for City Commissioner.
Among the improvements for nominations for the office of City Commissioner for the city of Kansas City, is the name of Mr. L. E. Smyth is familiar to the citizens of the city generally.
1
FELIN II PAYNE. Prominent Sporting Man and Leader of the Afro. American Base Ball League.
Mr Smyth was elected to the office of City Club a year ago, and has served the community with satisfaction to all parties concerned. The office of City Club becomes appointive after the coming election and Mr. Smyth has been requested by friends to make the race for Commissioner, believing as they do in his past contact with city affairs especially fits him for that office. He is thoroughly familiar with every detail of the city government, and is well and favorably known by the people of Kansas City, Kansas. Mr. Smyth served under the administration of Mayor Council for two years as License Collector, during which time he followed an aggressive policy that brought money into the treasury of the city and without making him that all feeling which often follows
J. B. SMITH
the actions of a collector of public funds. Personally, Mr. Smyth is a thorough buoster for the city of Kansas City. He advocates a greater extension of trade and publicity for the city and a clean and business like a restoration of the affairs of government. He is a clean man, qualified in every way to give to the people of Kansas City an institution that will do the city right, and with the assistance of a board of his man Kansas City will make no mistake in selecting Mr. Smyth as one of the Commissioners. Visitors to his office will find that Mr. Smyth is the true that he is an doctor the people and that he is subject to the law as a public servant and in no way has his own individual entitlement into the office of the office.
JUDGE VANN PRATHTR.
Candidate For Mayor.
judge Vinn Prather has been a resident of the city of Kansas City during the past twenty eight years and during that time has always been an active and aggressive worker in the interests of his home city. He is a prominent business man and stands well with the people generally. Personally it can be said of Mr. Prather that he is broad in his views and liberal in his treatment of others which concern the people. In fact Judge Prather is a citizen in the highest sense. Judge Prather is known to be a man who will give to every other man whatever he merits, and in the conduct of his office, in the past he has proven that he recognizes the fact that a public office is not a special pension for the other, but keeps his office open at times to the public, without regard to loss, name of the individual or which ward he lives in. Judge Prather has served two terms as Probate Judge of this county, each term being for two years and during that time in office he has made many friends, who will be pleased to see him enter the two ton Mason of the city. The moving he has made in the past at token is an indication proves that he has made new friend with each of them and the vote which elected him be spokes for him a warm place in the hearts of the good people of the city, who will give him their support as a testimonial of their appreciation of the services of a citizen who has always served them honestly and earnestly.
OTTQ ANDERSON.
Commissioner.
NUMBER 4
between public necessities and public extervagance, in the handling of the people's business.
Mr. Anderson is a man of business, having made a success in handling his own affairs before attempting the same for the people of Kansas City. The same efforts he has put in his own business he has given to the people, as a commissioner, and if the good people of the city appreciate faithful service in an other there will be no question of their selection of Mr. Anderson to make a second term as Commissioner, an honor which he deserves, in recognition of the services of a man who gave to the people the very best ability in his nature, Kansas City is a great city and growing daily. The citizens who have made this great city are proud of their efforts and justices of its interests. Its affairs should be handled carefully and by men of ability and experience in those things which have made the city grow. Mr. Anderson is the man of the moment and his selection as Commissioner, for a second term, will reflect the good judgment of the citizens of Kansas City and be a fitting testimonial of their appreciation of his faithful service to them.
Mr. Anderson came to Kansas City in 1850 and worked as a laborer until 1850, at which time he entered business for himself with a market market and grocery. By punishing efforts, along the lines of business, he has watched the business grow until today he has a business which has kept pace with the progress of the city and is among the leading stores in his lines.
As an officer on the city, it can be said in his favor that he has done more public work this year than has been done in the past five years. Every contractor for the city has been made to comply strictly with the plans and specifications as laid down. And in the operations of the office he has not forgotten the fact that young men should be given encouragement, and with this idea in view he gives the young contractors the contracts for reporting the streets which represents thousands of fellows during the course of the year.
1111X II PAYNI.
Spouting Promoter.
Those who have kept interest of the things have used that very recently a meeting was called at Chicago, where plans were prepared for the organization of a National League on Negro Base Ball Clubs. In this meeting were the leading men of the time in spring and we are proud to note that our popular townman and friend, Delius Payne was one of the leading figures in this meeting and that he was honored with being elected to temporary chairman of the conference. In this conference were men who came prepared to come and try to resolve, and they proceed at once to get down to business, with the result that we may host on whose ball organization that will have an opportunity to place Negro ball players in a rank other professional men in a place and give an opportunity to meet them in the world of sport. Naturally, out of this allot
grow other and larger fields, which
is so may not be restored by this
originating but in any case we are
will know that a new hold or revenue
and opportunity has been opened up
to New York and that one of our representatives
has been a part in the organization.
he ame to Kensie where opened a place of public amusement with the people of his city. His son has been more than in our support all of present his life to provide that is known to me about the West. The Middle Hall, Kensie City, is a general headquarters for the athletic people athletes and all classes travel to Negroes, where they that themselves welcome at all times. It is located at 110 West 6th St.
Mr Payne is a tough lover of all classes on legitimate sports and is an ardently on motors of this nature. He is a pleasant and agreeable gentleman to meet and we are sure that the National Negro League will find a valuable asset in the person of Mr Payne.

TRIBUFE TO GEO. WAKER.
BY OUR LAWRENCE CORPORPONENT.
A final tribute was paid to the memory of George W. Walker, conducted last Sunday at the Warren street Baptist church by Rev Dr Jackson, who praached the sermon and was assisted by the other pastors of Lawrence. The auditorium was filled to overflowing by members of both races and the assembly hall below was also crowded long before the time set for the service. The floral tributes from gardens here and from the Eastern borders of the American continent, were indeed magnificent.
Geo Walker has served his generation and gone. In him the world beheld a rare genius, with intellect to discover and intelligence to apply the laws of the material world and to make them administer to his happiness. Endowed with an independent will, he decided for himself in whatever he did. When a more lad he determined to stand before the footlights of the stage and en.

During his illness all was done by his mother, wife and partner, Bert Williams, that love and medical skill could do, but he had served his generation. He died Jan. 6th, 1911, in a private sanitarium near New York after an illness of several months. But as in life, so in death, his lifelong partner, Bert Williams, bound together by a tie stronger than friendship, as were David and Jonathan or Damon and Pythias. took charge of the body and said, "When George was alive he always had his clothes made to order, so there is no casket that is now made that will do for him. One shall be made for him." So, a casket of mahogany, lined with copper half an inch in thickness, covered with velvet, and a shipping box of cedar were made. Mr. Walker's wife and Mr. Williams did all that humans can do for their dead. Both are filling contracts.

Cyrus Corning Dead!
Along with many people in Topeka and other sections of Kansas The PLAINDEALER deeply regrets to learn of the death of Mr. Cyrus Corning, which occurred at his home, 1716 Lane street, Monday afternoon.
In the palmy days of populism Mr. Corning was a leader in the ranks of the new party and was at the head of several influential publications that espoused the new doctrine. During the past few years he conusted a job office in this city and published the Grand Army Review, the publication of which he suspended at his months ago and removed to Kansas City, which had been conducted a bishop, established.
Our deeds and our corning beare and out of business and reals a round him be years, ten and honorable, and the big, reigniorl heart beat the same toward all mankind regardless of erged, color or religion. White men of the Corning type are few and far between, and no one more deeply deplores his death than the host of friends he made among the colored people. He was a grand old man and his kindly deeds will ever live after him.
Mr Corning was a Civil War veteran and prominent in the G A, R. under whose auspices the fuseral was held Tuesday. Peace to his ashes!

Jones Shot at by His Wife.
The breach between Theodore V Jones and his alleged wife, Helen C. Jones, was opened again though wider than ever when the farmer was driven away from his home, away from his home, after five shots were fired at him. That Jones was not seriously injured was considered a lucky accident. One of the shots struck a gold watch he was carrying in his pocket, seriously daunting the watch and another shot made slight flor wound in one of his legs. Besides that he carried several notes in his coat and vest away with him as even one of the strueg
During his recent absence an art whore she was seen whom it drawn, came here took possession of the house in corner of thirteenth and ye streets. When Jones came back went home and found the house occupied. Thereupon he went away and returned with a friend, a tempting to enter the house through a window. This move was blocked by the woman with a big Winchester rifle, and Jones retreated. After the racket neighbors telephoned to the police, and two officers, not knowing who owned the house went to the scene and spent the night there to avert further trouble
Subsequently the woman was awarded the temporary control of the house, and Jones was allowed
one room in it in which he could sleep Things went along nicely until Jones decided to move away, and last night he went out there with an express wagon, meaning to hurt away his share of the household goods, and to permit the woman to the other half Prior to the visit however, Attorney E D. McKeever, who represents Jones, want to police headquarters and asked Chief Jenskins and asked if he thought it would be necessary to send an officer out keep peace The matter was talked over, Attorney McKeever believing that their would be no trouble, and it was decided to the presence of an officer was superfluous.
But the trouble came in bunches as soon as Jones put in an appearance. He was met at the door by his wife in belligerent attitude, and by his son who was carrying a revolver of small caliber. The latter, Jones says attempted to shoot him and he knocked the gun from the boy's hands. Thereupon the Loy clinched with him and told his mother to pick up the gun and shoot, which Jones says she did, firing five shots in all. Sorting that the revolver was not going to be enough to drive him away, the boy dived back into the house and secured the Wintchester, which Jones had seen before, and he decided it was time to retreat, which he did accordingly.
"Jones did not go out there with any idea of any trouble," said Attorney McKeever last night. "He was not armed, and had no way of defending himself. I have advised him not to get into trouble with the woman, and he believed he could move half the house' old goods without arousing any antagonism on her part. I hardly think he will ask for warrants either for Mrs Jones or her son."
The woman claims to be Jones' wife, and declares she is entitled to half of his property. She is said to come here from Chicago onring his absence in the West to demand her rights. The son, who put in an appearance last night is a new factor in the case having been imported only a few days ago - Topka Daily Capital.
LANCHINGS FOR YEAR MAKE SMALLER LIST.
Of the Forty-seven Killed in Armed Conflict All But Five Were Negroes. Chicago, Jan. 24 — Lynchings in the United States, known to be such, as Distinct from murder or killings in armed race conflicts, numbered only 17 in the year 1910, against 67 in
1909, 65 in 1908, 51 in 1907 and 68 in 1906. It is to be borne in mind in considering statutes on this subject that there is no official record of these deplorable occurrences and early newspaper dispatches sometimes record as lynchings what fallers information proves to be murders or killings in armed conflicts. Enough genuine lynchings-execution without trial or without the carrying out of sentences against persons against whom legal punishment has been decreed over each year without classifying as such the doubtful cases.
Of the 47 lynchings in the year just ended all but five were of negroes, and 25 of the 47 were for the one offense that most exasperated to summary vengeance the white race in the South, assaults on white women or girls. Murders were responsible for 16 lynchings, of twelve negroes and four whites. The fifth white man was ylnched at Newark, Ohio, in a war between prohibitionists and art-prohibitionists, and was an and soon detective. One lynching occurred for each of the following cases insulting white woman in proper conduct with white woman, acting an objectionable act rebevy. Two were lynched for alleged plinen to re-qlar prosec
One of the most notable cases of the year was that of a Mexican burned at the stake forCOUNTING and murdering a white woman, at Rock Springs, Texas, November. This caused bitter feelings among Mexicans and citizens of the United States in several border towns, and motive in some places.

LADIES LOOK!
Every lady can have a beautiful and luxurious head of hair if she uses a MAGIC. After a shampoo or bath the Magio dries the hair, removing the dandruff, and it will straighten the curliest head of hair.
The Magio will not burn or injure the hair, because the comb is never heated. The steel heating bar which irons the hair, is alone, put into the flame of the alcohol or gas 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.
The Magio Heater is also suitable for curling irons, has a cover and can be carried in a handbag.

FREAKS IN KANSAS LEGISLATURE. The Kansas legislatu is now in session and with it comes the usual freaks and unreconstructed rebels; each thinking that the responsibilities of this great commonwealth rests upon his shoulders.
The fellow who imagines he cannot bear to look at a woman above the knee therefore wants no exposure of her form save that portion known as the "patella." His proposed bill would stop the circus rider, trapez performers and beautiful chorus girls whom nature has molded after God's own likeness. To speak plainly, the author of this bill is a fit subject for the insane asylum and the people who sent him here to assist in making laws are not much better.
Another solon whom Solomon would probably have placed in a mad house had he lived in his day, wants to get popular. He is championing a black law. The races in Kansas are at peace and attending strictly to their own business. We have not heard of any white women wanting black husbands nor of colored women wanting white husbonds, therefore such agitation serves only to stir up feeling and the one who does such is a traitor to human progress. No Christian gentleman would resort to such a low thing. Such a bill is a disgrace to the white women of any state or clime as its insane author admits that it takes a law to prevent their securing black husbands. No white woman with the least spark of self respect and womanhood would think of marrying a Negro nor would a colored man with the same amount of respect seek such a marriage. He has too many cultured and refined ladies in his own race to chose from and the same can be said of colored women. The father of this bill needs a good, sound threshing or a coat of tar and feathers.
Still there is another wise one He imagines that railroads should operate at a loss, that the people are being robbed. He therefore wants utility laws in order to create more jobs and build up the gang's machine so they can perpetuate each other in office
It is a pity that Kansas has been made the dumping grounds for the off-falls of the world They conjure up all kinds of schemes and when enacted into laws work a hardshr, on the masses who are robbed through the tax system in order to keep these cranks in clover. Will the good people of Kansas ever catch one

Lawson Hill Colliery, of Kansas City. Mr. won a great case in the annual count yesterday, when he detained a young colored girl, charged with stealing $500 worth of diamonds from a world’s white woman. His masterly cross examination brought out the fact that she was only under suspicion. He proved to the satisfaction of the judge and jury that she was not in the wrong hands at the time of the ad, got that until he had finished with his wife. Judge R. Latshew immediately took the case from the jury and insisted them to bring in a verdict of not guilty. The time has passed in Jackson County when a Negro who owns a Negro attorney cannot get a sparse deal. All hope to bridge R. Latshew.
