Dept. 215 written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord," and you can do this if you are pure in heart. And again it is written "Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink; for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head"—Rum. 12-20. But to obey this divine injunction you must be pure in heart. "Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord,"—Matt. 23.39, for he that so cometh will bear no ill will toward his fellowman, and all such are the pure in heart. The members of the Kansas Legislature may think that a measure prohibiting intermarriage between whites and blacks is "Jim Crow" dope, but if it is not, then there is no Jim Crow" legislation. Any law matured in black is "Jim Crow." Not that we care a rap for such a law, but it is the spirit in which it is stated which makes the stigma. Such a law puts the colored man on a level with the beast of burden, or even lower- on the under side of the brute level. There seems to be a dead on the part of the whites for the safety of the white women, not to save them from the blacks, but to save them from themselves. They seem to think that the white women are prone to marrying colored man. Of course, this is putting a high(?) estimate on white womanhood and putting a premium on Negro manhood. Now we believe that the white man should strive to save themselves from the colored women who fancy their society and pass a law that would inflict penal servitude upon every white man guilty of consorting with colored women, no matter how low in degradation they have fallen, as such a law will serve to put an end to amalgamation more effectively than any law forbidding intermarriage between the blacks and whites The Capital is opening its eyes just a little on a very important matter and speaks thusly: "The Legislature probably has enough important things to attend to without taking time to consider a proposed law for bidding marriage between white and colored persons, a matter important enough in southern states, but of no consequence in Kansas. And the same may be said of "Jim Crow" car bills and the like. Such bills are the sort that justify the criticism of "too many laws," where no occasion for them exists." There is no "probably" in the matter. If the Kansas law-makers will devote their time solely to digging up dead laws and disposing of them they will be kept busy forty-nine days of their allotted time, and the other day can be spent in congratulating themselves on a good work well done, and they can go home with a clear conscience and can rest assured that the --- --- HISTORY OF THE UNION PASSING COMMENT BY JOHN M DORSEY THE PURE IN HEART. In James 3.7-10 we find the following: "For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind. "But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. "Therewith Jesus we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the attitude of God. "Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing: my brethren, these things ought not so to be." So we see that the tongue is an evil that we must all come in contact with in our journey through life, but when the deadly poison is aimed at us we must not lay down to die from the effects, but must so live before men that we can show to the world that we are proof against the evil; but in order to do this we must be pure in heart, as the writings of Matt 5 10 12 tell us that "Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness" sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. "Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. "Rejoice, and be exceedingly glad: for great is your reward in heaven." But in order to stand up under this strain you must be pure in heart. And again it is written "Ye have heard it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbours, and hate thine enemy. "But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you: "That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven" Matt. 5:43-45. But if you are not pure in heart you cannot do this. If you are pure in heart you will not spend your time trying to get some one behind the bars for circulating false statements. Instead of wasting time in any such manner, spend your time in showing to the world that you are pure in heart and can stand the strain. "Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect."—Matt. 5:18. When men, in whatever calling they find themselves, start out to punish some one for things said, or done they are not living up to the divine infliction as is told in Rom. 12:19, which says "Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath; for it is Uncle Sam Poultry Book Uncle Sam Poultry Book Here's just the book you are looking for.

Tener of Pennsylvania is the man who is building on solid rock. There is no make-shift about him. He ordered an investigation into the Contestville affair in which officers of the law took the leading role in the brutal butchery of a colored man accused of crime, and not only that, but sent the attorney-general of the state to assist in the prosecution. But the citizens absolutely refused to find any of the culprits guilty, and all were released. Now Gov. Tener is seeking to deprive that ungodly community of the right to a place on the map and thereby place the brand of Cain upon them as unworthy the name of citizens, and we trust that the good people of Pennsylvania will go the full limit with Governor Tener and hold up his hands while he is doing a duty for which the world will rise up and call him blessed. --- A little "Crow" is as bad as more "Crow" and if the present legislature goes on record for a black law on the marriage question it might is well go the full limit and give us "Jim Crow" cars, and street cars, "Jim Crow" schools from stem to stern, even to the limit of building a school house and hiring a teacher or the benefit of one pupil, and on top of girls add a "grandfather" lause. Get in full accord with the South and southern ideas and have the worry over with. Yes, gentlemen, go the full limit or don't start. Kansas has claimed a place in the progressive column and is marching onward, but there are some people in the state who are really anxious to start on the backward track by passing a law that would another the growth and render it impossible to progress again till Gabriel rounds the trumpet, and then we will stop on board the train bound for everlasting tournment. ```markdown ``` The member of the Kansas legislature who has introduced a bill to fine all voters who fail to cast a ballot has sawdust in his head for what ought to be brain. We are puzzled to know from whence comath so many different brands of fools. The ballot is the same kind of right as a right to eat or sleep, and people can do either when it is convenient to their wishes or desires. One J. Silas Harris, a Missourian, is either an educated fool, a natural born fool, or a damphool. His carcass in Kansas would not make decent feedings for the lowest type of lousy hound. We don't need the advice of any such in Kansas. DOVER OKLA. Mr. W. Mayberry is reported on the sick list. A large number from Dover attended court at Kingfisher this week. Mrs. Lula Ross spent Sunday with her mother, Mrs. Clara Sparks. Mrs. G. I. Currin is reported on the sick list. Rev. Allen filled the pulpit at St. Paul A. M. H. church Sunday.

If You Want to Keep Your Live Stock Feed Only Sound Corn. During the fall and winter months of 1911 and 1912 letters were frequently received by the Kentucky experiment station describing a peculiar and strange mainly affecting horses, cattle and monkeys. Newspapers over the state frequently commented on the loss sustained by certain men in their community from a so called "mysterious disease." An investigation and personal observation of this outbreak in Kentucky furnished conclusive evidence that the disease in question was forage poisoning, also called epizootic, cerebral spinal malignity and commonly termed "bilial staggers," traceable in a majority of cases to unround corn, fodder or fermented cattle. To control this disease and prevent the unaffected animals from contracting it has been demonstrated possible in Kentucky by discontinuing the feeding of molds forage. This is not a curative step with animals showing symptoms. ```markdown ``` Photograph by kentucks agricultural experiment station Photograph by Kentucky agricultural experiment station MOLDY CORK BLAMED FOR CEREBROPIAL MENINGHAM IN DURSEN, CATTLE AND MILLS toms, as a large percentage of the cases has been fatal even when receiving skillful medical attention. Very few cases have occurred after a complete change of feed was made. On one farm a complete change of feed was recommended to check the disease, and six cases appeared almost simultaneously between the fourth and seventh days following the change, but no further cases were reported, and it is safe to conclude that the infection gained entrance prior to the change of feed, after which time the disease had been incubating in the cases noted. The acute form of the disease has been more prevalent than any other, especially in horses and mules. Animals so affected succumb in from two to three days from the time the first clinical symptoms were manifested so suddenly have some of the cases developed that practically no premonitory symptoms were noted by the owner. Animals were frequently found dead in the morning that evidenced no symptoms of ill health to the owner on the previous day. Horses were attacked at work in the field and died within a few hours. THE TRIFLES THAT COUNT. Better farming may lie in just such simple things as adjusting the plow to do the best possible work, in feeding stock so that not a bit of waste follows and in carrying out plans carefully laid. What the world needs is not so much men who have thousands to lay out in land and equipment as farmers who know the value of details and have the will and the disposition to work to the line.—Farm and Fireside. --- Poultry Wisdom In a Nutshell. Greet semitelling sheds facing the south or east. Use clean straw litter. See that drinking vessels are clean and provided with clean water. Provide grit, band and shell; also charcoal grit. Give a daily supply of green food. Keep a sharp lookout for chicken pox. If a few warts or pimple appear on comb, waffles or eyelids, bathe with vinegar and water, dry and then apply carbolized glycerin. Use epoxi salts in the drinking water. Keep coops, brooders and yards in repair and see that all vermin is destroyed.—American Agriculturist. Winter Pruning. Warm days between now and spring may be used to advantage, cutting out dead timber or branches that are too crowded among or hard or shade trees or shrubbery. Be careful in pruning to cut close to the shoulder so that the wound may readily heal next season. It is well in the case of trees to paint the wound over with some cheap paint in order to prevent drying it and cracking. We're Gaining In Wisdom.

NOTES OF NEGGGRO BUSINESS PROGRESS Among the business plants of Nashville, Tenn. are listed two banks, three undertaking establishments, two photographers, two hospitals and two publishing houses. In Virginia the total value of property owned by Negroes increased from $12,089,965 in 1891 to $12,911-240 in 1911. In this latter year the Negroes of the state paid $312,000 taxes. A related population of about 25,000 in Seattle, Wash., owns and supports five churches, and has two physicians, two lawyers, one newspaper, four apartment houses, and six fraternal organizations. Leading colored physicians and citizens are behind a movement to build a $50,000 hospital for the colored people of New York. The McDonough Hospital Association, which is named after the pioneer colored physician in the city, is the agency through which those interested hope to accomplish their aim. --- Regiments serving in the United States and having the lowest percentage of desertion last year were the Tenth Cavalry and the Twenty-fifth Infantry, both colored organizations, which showed desertions of 152 and 169 per cent The Tenth Cavalry has been one of the two regiments showing the lowest desertions for the past three years --- Of the 24,000 inhabitants in Meridian Mts. 10,000 are Negroes.
