I wish to recall the promise which I made these friends a year ago when I told them if elected commissioner of Topeka I would be on the job, that I would do all in my power to improve the streets and condition of the city and to the extent of the funds at the disposal of my department. This promise I have tried to fulfill. If my friends are satisfied with the efforts made and work accomplished, I respectfully solicit their support again for the coming spring election. I wish to emphasize and renew that former promise. If given the second term as commissioner of Topeka, I will be on the job and will do all in my power to make a success of the administration and for the upbuilding of Topeka A Colored Voter Praises M'Neal for Mayor. The many friends of Hon. T. A. McNeal are jubilant over the fact that he has consented to permit his name to go before the people as a candidate for mayor of the city of Topeka. There are few men, women and children in the children in the city of Topeka but what know Mr. McNeal, and there are nons but what believe that he would make a most excellent mayor. He has as many if not more friends among the colored people than any one man in the city. Mr. McNeal has ever looked upon them as men, and believes they are entitled to every right and privilege enjoyed by other citizens. Moral worth and fitness in the standard by which he measures all men, be they white or black, and when we say that he possesses as little prejudice as any white man in Topeka, we voice the sentiment of every member of the race in the city. Mr. McNeal is in every way qualified to fill the office. He was twice elected state printer and conducted the office in a manner that reflected credit upon himself and the great state whom he was serving. He is a good business man, and the fact that he has made good in his every undertaking is a sufficient recommendation that he would give the people a good, clean, honest administration—one that would save the taxpayers money and at the same time beautify and advance the city along all lines Mr. McNeal is editor of the Farmers' Mail and Breeze, and on many occasions he went out of his way to speak a kindly word for the colored brother through the columns of his great paper, a fact that is well known and highly appreciated by the colored people all over the state. MR. M. C. HOLMAN Popular Commissioner Seeks Re-Election Government by commission has been a success in Topeka simply because the reigns have been placed in the hands of good, competent business men. This fact no one will deny—not even the opposition candidates. No member of the commission has done more for the city and to endear himself into the hearts of the people than Mr. M. C. Holman. --- VOLUME XVIII. and Public Improvements Office of Commissioner of Topeka y for the renomination for city Frank my friends and neighbors their activity on my behalf in to recall the promise which I when I told them if elected com- mon the job, that I would do all sets and condition of the city and disposal of my department. fulfill. If my friends are satis- ork accomplished, I respectfully coming spring election. I wish former promise. If given the Topeka, I will be on the job and a success of the administration He looks after the parks and public buildings and has put heart and soul into the work. He has done more to beautify the city than had ever been attempted under the old system, thus convincing the people that not only the commission system is right, but Mr. Holman also. M. C. Holman needs no introduction to the citizens of Topeka. He has resided here since 1881 and has been actively engaged in business every since. He served two years in the city council and was secretary of the park board from 1900 to 1907. He organized the Topeka Woolen Mills and was president of the concern for six years. Mr. Holman was president of the Commercial Club during the building of the big shops on Rear ner street and was a power in getting them to locate here. Mr. Helman is a native of New Hampshire, locating in Kansas in 1869 and has been found pulling for that which will promote activity and bring happiness to all the people. He has many warm friends among the colored people who are actively supporting him IN HONOR OF LINCOLN A THOUSAND NEGROES CELEBRATE LINCOLN DAY. Listen to President Kealing, of Western university at Quindaro, Discuss Work of Great Emancipator. The exercises of the Lincoln Day club Monday night were all that could be expected. Over a thousand people attended Prof Fred Roundtree is to be congratulated on his excellent work in making the tenth annual barquet a howling success. Jackson's Military band dispensed several excellent pieces of music Miss Mabel Hillman read from the "Life of Lincoln". M.P. J. M. Wright sang "The Star Spangled Banner." The president's annual address reviewed the work of the organization for the past ten years. Prof. H. T. Kealing, the principal speaker, is one of the most logical and forceful speakers who ever addressed the people of this county. His address follows: "Lincoln had the faultless instinct on one who loved men for their souls. He cut through the cunning creeds of the case loving and taskmasters and came at once to the fundamental truth that God is no responder of persons, which was paraphrased into a statement of TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 17, 1911. American ideals by the Declaration of Independence, where it defined that all men are created equals and are entitled to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. He saw unerringly that, measured by the statement, either slavery or the republic must perish in time. "Would you see an inventory on what s'very give to the Southland?" Black wariness in material prosperity, pride or color, antigrace of castle, introspection of opinion, suppression or free speech, uneasy consciences, brutal tyranny, broken hearts, impoverished soul primitive farming, one crop raising, illegitimates, battering one's own flesh and blood to gain, civil war, bereaved homes, reconstruction, dishonest, vagrant laws, inhuman convict lease system lynching, Ku Klux, distorted ethics, debasing disfranchisement practices segregation, degradation, peonage, Jim Crow laws, a cheating credit system, illiteracy; these have come, and other curses, too; the murder of Summer, the assassination of Lincoln, the crime against Kansas, national cemeteries, soldiers' homes, pension taxes, an enormous public debt, internal revenue based on whiskey, and the life of the first born to save the nation. Monstrous harvest of sun! "But as honey came out of the carcass of Samsou's lion, so also out of the nottenness of slavery some good too; and that by the poetry of oppression came out of the very victim of its ruthlessness; for what is it that gives the hearty, brightness and piquant charm to Southern life today? Negro cheer; his religion; his song; his forgiveness, his courtesy; his patience; his recuperative qualities; his labor; his hopefulness; his brotherliness; his faithfulness, his tractability; his post-bellum legislation for free school and internal improvements; his new birth to modernity and progress. Worful rum of a powerful civilization now being settled and being ruined by the strengthened troops or that same one despised, but now a quiet Declaration of Independence. Lincoln himself said, "I have never had a strong politically, that did not arise from the sentiments empoiled in the Declaration of Independence." It has been said to feel the sword of the negro's attitude that Lincoln was not seeking to destroy slavery, but to save the Union. This is based upon his famous letter of Warren Greyley written August 22, 1862, in which he announced his intention to save the Union as his dominant purpose whether the slaves were freed or not, but those who seek to prove Lincoln's lack of interest in the slave forget that another utterance of his showed that he felt that saving the Union meant destroying slavery, for four years before the Greyley letter he said in his great debate with Douglass, "This Union can not permanently endure half slave and half free; the Union will not be dissolved, but the house will cease to be divided." He thus clearly indicated his belief that slavery would fail before the Union could be saved. He simply refused to destroy the Union by announcing a purpose he had always had, but for which the American public was not prepared." The ladies of St John A M E church are to be congratulated upon the serving of the banquet in such a satisfactory way Two hundred or more sat down to the banquet The following gentlemen offered toasts "The True American Spirit and the Color Line." W W Fisher; The "Y M C A movement" Mr Stewart, Sec's Y M C A, The Negro as a Farmer" Emmett Page, Charles Sumner and Human Rights" W Herbert Jamison; Frederick Douglas and Abolition Movement, Caste and its Influence" J F Bradley. Herbert Jamison and Emmett Page aroused the interest of the people by their straightforward talk and the forceful manner in which they handied their subjects Keep your eyes on them The race needs young men Two Jims Fake Order Sued! Shawnee County, Kansas Moon White, Plaintiff, comes now the plaintiff, Mason White, and for his cause of action against the defendant above numb, asserts that said defendant is a fraternal beneficiary society on order organized under the laws of the State of Kansas, with its principal office in the City of Topeka, and with subordinate councils in Topeka and elsewhere in and outside the State of Kansas, that on or about February 11, 1909, this plaintiff made written application for membership in Capital City Council No. 1 at Topeka, Kansas, and for relief and beneficiary certificates as such member; that his said application was by said council, and by the National Council or said order, the above named defendant, accepted, and pursuant thereto and the constitution and by laws of said order a relief certificate, No. 719, for the sum of $160.00, was issued to this plaintiff by the National Council and counter-signed by the officers of Capital City Council No. 1 of Topeka, Kana, a correct copy of which relief certificate is hereby attached, marked Exhibit A, and made a part hereof, which certificate provided for the payment to this plaintiff, the beneficiary thereunder, of the sum of $1 to $4 per week for sickness of plaintiff continuing him to his bed for more than one full week, not to exceed more than 12 weeks during any one year. Plaintiff further says that he complied with all the requirements of said order after the said certificate was issued to her and was in good standing in paid order when on about the day of May 1909 he was continued to his bed by sickness and for 18 months thereafter it was almost continuously continued in his bed and unable to perform any work that he has performed and done all things required of him by law to continue him to the benefits of said policy routine of that he is entitled by the provisions of the same, to the sum of 41 per week on the period of his sickness as limited by said policy not to exceed 12 weeks per year to wit 12 weeks for the first year and 12 weeks for the second year, aggregating the number of 21 weeks at stated per week, on $90,000. WHEREFORE, plantant pro- judge ment against the defendant for the sum of $90,000 and interest and costs. M. F. LAVOK. Attorney on Plantant What a shame to allow such a concern as this to continue to dupe the people. Under the fraternal laws of Kansas three pirates can operate and fool the people on the pretend that it is their money and their officers ever so important or mishonest can trim the profits and keep the members' nose to the grindstone. The two Jims are beading might and main to make the people believe that they are the proper men to direct the affairs of this dwarf order. We know of several old colored people in the same condition as Mason White OKMULGEE. OKLA Rev I A Husband returned to Boynton, Saturday after spending a few days assisting in a revival at the A. M.

We are pleased to note the fact that the government still lives at Washington and will continue as long as such men as Lodge, Curtis, Carter, Root and other men of like training who love and obey the constitution instead of the lost cause of secession remain at the helm. The scepter shall not depart from Washington nor will Jeff Davis's lost cause be exposed in Washington until every man North, South, West and East snall have an even break at justice and the ballot box. Whenever Congress relaxes her hold on the constituton by delegating all the powers directly to the several states for the consideration of the individual called people, then strife and turmoil will reign supreme, not only will the Negro suffer, but the manority class of whites will also bite the dust of an unjust and unrighteous people. Not until all the people learn to apply the law with equal exactness and justice will their request be granted and there would be a happy people all over the Union. Livining up to the golden rule, there is only about twenty per cent. of the people who know what they want or the use of the law. The majority regard the rights of others as see fit and profitable to themselves. Let us live up to the constitution, she is good for a million years. The people have not studied it thoroughly and when they do they think and act differently. We hope that Hon. W. T. Vernon may be retained as register of the treasury for another term President Tatt could do nothing that would bring more great fication to the colored people of the West than to retain him. He should move a second term. The Kansas delegation in Washington desires his retention He has made good and should be retained four cars more. A hardless worker for its constituents in Senator F. F. Porter of Crawford county. It was he who secured the Industrial Training school at Pittsburg, which has proved a great success. He knows how to go about doing things for Kunene and in the windup he always lands Pittsburg and Crawford county in the saddle. Keep him there if he will stay. KANSAN should feel ashamed of Joe Bristow He is a nullifier of the constitution and wishes of Kansas. We did not send him to Congress to break the constitution but to assist in its enforcement. Joe has a distorted liver for which President Tatt should administer a little doctrine of common horse sense to him which would mean much for his kind. Senator Curtis Defends Negro's Rights! We are proud to note the fact that we have a man in the senate at Washington who has taken the place of the late John J. Ingalls in voicing the sentiment of and defending the constitution by demanding equal suffrage and protection from the Federal government in the election of its own members. The co-ored voters North and South, should unite in commending the senators or their rightful stand for human rights 8-nator Curts said in part: "I strongly favor the joint resolution to provide for the election of senators by a direct vote of the people" said Senator Curtis, "but I do not think it should be burdensome with the objectionable and unfair provisions placed in it by a majority of the committee, and as one of the sources from the state of Kansas I cannot support the 'ri'er or 'Joker' plea in the resolution by a majority of the committee." That Senator Bustow should consider the amendment to the resolution as im material was a matter of regret with Senator Curtis "I regret very much," he said of his Republican colleague, "to see the senator treat a constitutional amendment so lightly." "The negro people are entitled to protection in their rights, and Congress should not directly or indirectly say it was willing to let the states take away the right which come to them as a result of the civil war," continued the senator. "After the war was over in order to meet new conditions the constitution was amended, and the fifteenth amendment declares that the right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of race, color or previous condition of servitude." Depriving Negroes of Rights. "This amendment was made to protect the former slaves who had been freed, and yet we find state after state by 'grandfather' and other clauses depriving them of their rights. Of course there is no word in the acts referring to 'race, color or previous condition of servitude,' yet every one knows that when a state undertakes to keep a citizen thereof from voting unless his grandfather was a voter, the object is to deprive the negro of his right of franchise. "If the resolution as amended is passed and the constitution is amended as provided therein, then the Congress gives up all its rights to make or alter the regulations of a state for the election of United States senators, and if electors are disfranchised, if outrages are perpetrated, if fraud is committed or if corrupt practices are resorted to the Congress remains helpless." Senator Bristow was an attentive listener but made no reply to his colleague.

WESTERN UNIVERSITY. The Western University choral society appeared before another white audience last Friday night and it was at the Central Women Methodist Church, this city. The entertainment was given in behalf of the Senior Men's Bible Class. The speakers on this occasion were Mr. A. G. Pearson, native of Scotland and a representative of the Kansas Department of the Y. M. C. A. and President Keating of Western University. The choruses rendered were "Estudian tiva," "I'll De in the Park," "Heaven," "What From Vengeance," "O Nunjam at Slus," and one or two others. The melodies were applauded vigorously as well as the classical pieces. The Glee Club boys who have been well trained to sing the different plantation songs, sang many encores because of the splendid renditions they gave. One selection, The Warrior Bold, brought them several encores, one of which was Dixie. There seemed a sudden change from a Western to a Southern audience at this point. Anyway there's a strange trance like feeling going over one when some songs are sung by the boys of the Glee Club, and the effect was no less striking on this night. When Yankee Doodle was sung the audience swerved Eastward, hence the great power of the singing. Dunbar wrote well when he sent forth these words: God in his great compassion Game me his gift of song. At the instance of an encore to Villarolle, Miss E. I. Grant sing, Coming Through the Rye. When Mr. Pearson opened his remarks he complimented Miss Grant by saying that of all the Americans he had heard sing Coming Through the Rye, Miss Grant came more nearly giving it the proper rendition. Dr. Keatling has solved the race problem. That is according to the outline he made before the audience. It is quite easily to be dissolved if the outline is properly followed. The congregat in arose and sang, My Country Tis of Thoe, at the close of part two and the evening's entertainment was dismissed.
