Farrell --- SOUTHERN WHITE MAN SCORES COTTESVILLE Louisianan Writes An Open Letter To The Mayor ```markdown ``` Work of Negro Delights Thousands. In a few days the annual night parade of the Priests of Pallas will draw its thousands to Kansas City, and its tens of thousands to witness the glitter and glare the finery and splendor of the passing electric floats—the biggest feature of the carnival. The awe of the multitudes and the joy of the directors will heap praise upon Fawcett Robinson, the English creator, who conceives these beautiful floats in his mind and sketches their outline on paper. He has done it annually for the past fifteen years. But to the Negro boys whom he has trained in the practical work for the past thirteen years belongs the credit of petting his ideas into concrete objects, into the dazzling beauties that the crowds go wild over and mightily acclaim. At the den on East Tenth street, Kansas City, Mo., Ananias Beford, 1024 Oak street, a Negro head artist, has been for the past thirteen years the right hand man and chief designer in putting the ideas of this Englishman into tangible material and final form nott alone for the Priests of Pallas in Kansas City, but also for the Los Angeles, California flower "La Fiesta," and the Omaha, Nebr., "Aksarben," also at Mobile, Ala. Thomas and Junius Buford, his brothers and Henry Bigelow are his helpers who are also highly skilled in the work. Twenty white men work under the direction of these Negroes. This is a deserved honor. Give the Negro half a chance and he will make good. TAFT GREETS DR. VERNON. Dr. W. T. Vernon, special supervisor of schools under the interior department and former registrar of of the United States treasury, Adolph Griffin, manager and another member of THE PLAINDEALER staff took Major Arthur Brooks, President Taft's private man for a drive over the city. We returned to the station a few minutes ahead of the Presidential party, and when they arrived, the President mounted the rear platform of his car and spying Dr. Vernon in the crowd called out, "How are you Prof. Vernon" and at this time Mr. Hillis, the President's private secretary extended his hand over the guard rail of the observation platform and shaking the Kansan's hand warmly said, "I am glad to see you Dr. Vernon." He was ushered into the parlor of the President's private car and shook hands with President Taft and the entire party. As Dr. Vernon alighted from the platform he was given a warm reception amid a crowd of such leaders as Mulvane, Capper, Gov. Hoch, Senator Curtis, Congressman Scott and several others who grasped him warmly by the hand. When asked the occasion of his visit, Dr. Vernon said, "I just run back home to be with the boys and assist them in making the president's welcome to our state the most royal of his entire Western trip and we have done a mighty job."

In Mouth of the "City of Brotherly Love," Men, Women and Children Leave Church to Burn a man Why this Dastardly Act? The Man was a Negro! Taking interest in the recent Coatesville, Pa., outrage Louis J. Livingston, now in Dowagiac on business, writes an open letter as follows: AUGUST 16, 1911. SIR: I am a white man of pure Caucasian blood, with not a drop of Negro blood in all my ancestry. I am a Southerner by birth a native of Louisiana. In politics I am an Independent Republican and in every line of thought I am an independent and progressive. I am not in love with the Negro, but am in love with justice and humanity; and if the awful deed, the more than savage burning of the Negro. Walker, that has forever blackened the name of your city and left a stain which not even justice can blot out, is not followed by bringing to swift and merciless punishment the worse than hyenas, who somehow have acquired the semblance of human beings, then I ask God to call down upon them the punishment commensurate with such an awful deed, and to wipe from the face of the earth the community that would condone such superlative fiendishness, incarnate. Knowing to what a degraded level the police of our country—North, South, East or West, in rural communities as well as in the cities and towns—have fallen; that they form one of the principal sources and main abettors, instead of the preventers and curers of vice and crime; that almost universally their sole interest in their work is the accumulation of human misery and want, that they may feed and fatten upon it; that they have become a scourge, and not a protection, to most communities large or small, that they secretly encourage and connive at the breaking of the very laws they are specially selected to uphold; and that instead of bending every effort to the capture of criminals they expend that energy in the effort to make criminals of innocent men and women, who, without friends, money or influence, win their displeasure and fall into their power. until today the police of America are almost universally known as the most brutal, corrupt and depraved on earth. Knowing also, that the Negro, whatever his faults, is nearer to our Americanim by birth, her- itance, contact, environment, education and tradition than the scum of almost every nation and race on earth that are allowed to swarm through the gates of our Castle Gardens; that the Negro, since the shackles of slavery have been stricken from his limbs, has paid for that emancipation in full, not only by fighting the battles of his white persecutor with distinction and even glory, in the civil, Indian, Spanish and Philippine wars—one of his greatest deeds being the storming of San Juan hill and winning of the crucial land battle of the Spanish war—but by emancipating himself from ignorance, helplessness and poverty, and making himself a useful industrious and helpful citizen; and knowing that there is a certain element of many American communities, associated with those secret powers—hierarchical as well as political—that are secretly beading every energy to the destruction of American institutions and American spirit. Knowing these things I repeat and feeling that the statement given out as to the acts and the confession of Walker are one-sided and cannot now be consulted by the miserable victim of their awful savagery, and the meager fact in his favor that has been allowed to creep through the press censorship, that he killed the policeman in self-defense, I, as an old newspaper man and man of the world, and expert in the analysis and study of human actions,base my protest upon the well known facts given by me above. Next to the awful inhumanity of such fiendish deeds, my greatest objection is to their thorough un-Amerieunism. Back of them is a suggestion of clericalism, more even, than racialism, and I ask my countrymen to beware of the secret power that lies back of it all LODIS J. LIVINGSTON. COFFEYVILLE KANSAS.

HARRY NELSON ATWOOD of Boston, twenty-seven years old, has been crowned king of all aviators because of his wonderful achievements in the art of aviation. His success is the more remarkable from the fact that it was only on last Memorial day that he made his initial flight. His record of four months not only does credit to the young man, but opens amazing possibilities to the imagination. On June 30 he made a flight from Boston to New London, Coun., carrying his mechanician as a passenger. The next day he new to New York. On July 3 he new to Atlantic City on his way to Washington, arriving at the latter city on July 13. On Aug 14 he started from St. Louis and arrived at New York on Aug. 25. With these laurels Atwood may conclude to retire from the flying game. He realizes that the art has not yet been perfected to the point of safety to aviators and admits that he is seriously considering quitting before he "gets his." In the illustration Atwood is shown flying down the Hudson river and again just as he landed at Governors island.

ADJOINING the Vatican grounds in Home stands the palatial residence of the pope, with its quiet private garden, furnished for its display of carpet holding, foundations, innumerable statues and graceful power vases with their rare plants. This small plot of ground is exclusively set apart for the use of his holiness the pope. With the Vatican and St. Peter, the pope may be said to reign over a territory of thirty acres, for strictly speaking, this is not Vatican soil and is entirely under the jurisdiction of the Vatican authorities. It is in those beautiful gardens that the pope takes daily walks when the state of his health permits. The prescriptions of the pope's physicians are put up by a corps of private chemists.

On account of failing health he abandoned the teaching pro. fession several yeas ago and has been devoting his attention to tonsorial busuess. Thomas was blessed with an cvzeptionally bright intellect and was a splen- did orator. He admired the or- atorical ability of Dr Vernon and they were grcat friends, It was his desire that Dr Vernon speak athis funcral, For msny years he was au active member of the Interstate Literary association, and had acted on various com~ mittees and held a number of of- ices m that ody.

GOOD D!°PING VAT FOR SHEEP Every Farrer With Flock of Tweaty five Animals Should Possess One—Conerete le Cheap. A farmer owning as many as twen ty-flea sheen should bare a good Gipping vat. These may be mads of wood, metal or concrete. For a emaller number of steep than twenty Ove, tbe barre! used to scald the pigs will do if the farmor feels that he cannot afford to purchase or build @ vat, A good galvanized vat ten feet long and four feet deep made purposely for dipping can be purchased for about $13, There are smailer sizes than thie that can be purchased for fese money, Concrete vate can he built at @ normal cost, Three or four farmers can club together and pur ehase one of the galvanized tanks and Baul [t to thelr respective farme as It fo wanted. A dipping vat for sheep shoud be narrow enough to prevent the abeep turning around in it, and deep enough to swim large sheep. The length of the vat should depend upon the aumber of sheep a man keeps on bis place, as the longer the vat the greater the number of sheep which can be dipped in a day There fa considerable variation as to the LA ds, A ; . o ; . | ~~ Vai : pl A width of vats found on different farms and as ao uaual thing they are wider than necessary.

The Goor araund the end of the vat from riick the sheep emerge Is oo graded that all drippings return to the vat, There are sewer connec tions with this outfit, the valve of which ia located tn the dry chamber.
