Two New were lynched in Harrison county let night, it was discovered today. Near Elysian Fields a Negro named Anderson was hanged Near Karnach, Robert Perry charged with horse stealing, was shot to death. Anther Nekro, George Redlin, also charged with horse stealing, was shot in the leg by the man who killed the man Perry. (This dispatch puts the crepe on the old threadbare talk of rape, and even these men were only charged with a crime no doubt perpetrated by some of the very white men in the mob that butchered these colored men. But they will get what is coming to them, if not in this life, then in the next.) The man now on the payroll of the state at $100 per month, who boasts that it costs him $60 per month for "ents," was glad to eat dime-house grab on many occasions, and if he would take some of this $100 and send it to his wife and six children in Arizona they would be perfectly willing to foreign English lamb chops. Mrs. Charlotte McDonald, of Mo. Alster, Okla. is the guest of her daughter, Mrs. F. W. Watley. Mrs. Walter Foster is able to be up after a serious ruge of illness. Mrs. Edith Nolles, of Saint Louis, Mo. is in the city the guest of Mrs. O. J. Brooks. Mr. and Mrs. W. M. Trout, of Oakland, Cali. are visiting their son, M. Ernest Porter. Mrs. G. W.

Editor Plaindealer: There is great statement among our people at present, that the city uses the resolution for separate schools. The Forum, which is composed of some of the leading men of the city who meet every Sunday in the afternoon, are showing a great deal of interest in this particular matter. The business men are also meeting every Thursday at the Y M C A at the interest of the same.

The latch --- PASSING COMMENT BY JOHN M DORSLY While you are happy, don't forget that there are others depending on you for a share of happiness. It is now predicted that votes for women will kill the literary work among women, as the scramble for office will take up all the spare time. It's too bad. 1 1 There are a lot of people anxious for Uncle Sam to "butt in" on the affairs in Mexico, but these same brave guys are not in any immediate danger of being on the firing line Luther McCarty says he will fight Jack Johnson of public opinion demands. He ought to find a sucker with "dough" galore before making such talk, as his bluff might be called The old saying that if you sow the wing you will reap the whirlwind was brought home vividly to Madero before he had time to prepare for his final plunge down the shaft of time into eternity. . . . "Let the people rule" was a much used expression in the fall campaign, and there will be no objection to the practice if the majority is to do the ruling and the minority do the obeying. That's good doctrine. ```markdown ``` President Huerta of Mexico is made of the stuff that will rule that nation. He believes in killing or curing. Swing the ax often and all the chronic office seekers will lie away to the tall timber to quiet life. The initiative and referendum may not be of any special service in "wet" states, but here in Kansas it will act as a lever by which that much mooted question of reubmission will be pried up out of obscurity. Let her come. When a man has spent nine-tenths of his life in tramping from pillow to post and has lived from hand to mouth and then accidentally falls into a fat snap at $100.00 per month it is enough to drive him crazy much less stimulating his appetite toward "English" lamb chops, etc. --- It has become so easy to obtain a divorce in these days and times that a separation can be secured on almost any kind of a charge. When a man and woman take the solemn vow, "tall death does part," they should be made to stick together, on their vows kept in the embrace of death by law. The statement by Mrs. Woodrow Wilson that her White House gowns would cost no more than a thousand a year has stirred up official society around Washington as it was never stirred before. They go some there, and one thousand will not be a drop in a bucket. --- In New York city money lays unclaimed since so much冠edness has been turned up in police circles. Must be something terrible in the net that is searching out graft. Out here in Kungsw it is claimed that the Lanka are overflowing with cash, but there is none of it is a sight for the poor man in need. . . . We do not know how many people regard mankind but we are of the opinion that the man who will forsake a wife and several children (or one child for that matter) and be in open distress with a scion of the red light" district has reached the bottom round of degeneracy and is past the place where manhood has ceased to be a virtue. Uncle Sam Poultry Book Hero's just the book you are looking for. It tells you all about how to succeed with chickens. It is a compilation of the reports of work done by the U. S. Government.

He is a Kansas product and his name is Everett. Mr. Fouse is also a business man. He has a big wrecking business. The following is a section of the school bill that is meeting the stubborn opposition of the business and race pride people of the city and state: Second-The day elementary schools of each school district of California shall be open for the admission of all children between six and twenty-one years of age residing in the district, and may be open for the admission of adults if the governing body of the district deem such admission advisable; provided, that where kindergarten instruction is given in the schools of a district, such school shall admit children to the kindergarten classes at four years of age. * * * Third—The governing body of the school district shall have power to exclude children of filthy or vicious habits, and children suffering from contagious or infectious diseases, and also establish separate schools for Indian and Negro children and for children of Chinese or Mangolian deserts.

Emmett Stewart presiding. Owing to pressing business engagements on the part of the lawyers throughout the state, the attendance was noticeably limited. This limitation of number in attendance gave rise to a suggestion, on the part of Mr. II. A. Guess, which suggestion ripened into a motion, duly seconded by Mr. Corbett, that owing to the usual congestion of legal work in all sections of the state on or about the present time, that the time and place of meeting in the future be at the place and on the first day of the meeting of the colored teachers association of this state. The motion was unanimously adopted. Mr. Corbett suggested that the president make a few remarks on the present and future status of the Negro lawyer in the state to which the president responded in a most optimistic vein, giving to us a timely and interesting message. It was afterwards suggested by the president, and duly moved by Mr. McCree and seconded by Mr. Corbett, that the various sub-committee appointed by the president or that will be appointed by such personage make a report to the executive committee if all work assigned them before the regular annual meeting of the association, which motion was duly carried. After which the election of officers took place as follows: Freeman L. Martin, Tulsa, Okla., president; F. L. Barbour, El Reno, first vice president; S. T. Wiggins, Wagoner, second vice president; C.

We are Prepared to do Neat Work Or ts Us Figure on Your Next Order. Entered at the Postoffice at Topeka as Second Class Mail Matter. After a deal of effort we are gradually getting to the point where most dignified and responsible publications in the United States are beginning to capitalize the word, "Negro" just as much as they do the word Jew or Irish. Both the Outlook and the Century Magazine have recently decided to hereafter spell the word Negro with a capital "N." This, we think, is a distinct victory. We hope the Independent and the New York Evening Post will soon follow the Outlook and the Century Magazine. New York Age. COLORED WOMAN CANDIDATE FOR SCHOOL BOARD. The Plaindealer heartily indicates the candidacy of Ms. Kate Broadus of Hutchinson, Kansas, who is now a candidate for member of the Board of Education. We are glad to know that we have some women in the state, who are interested enough in the young people of the race to offer their service. She is fitted for the position and stands high in her community and it is no more than right that she should be elected, and it is the duty of the honest, Christian white people to see that Mrs. Broadus is elected to this position, as the colored people are tax-payers and supporters of the schools of Hutchinson. We wish her every success and anything the Phamadler can do for her, we will be glad to do THE SIXFIFTH AMENDMENT. With the simplest formality the sixteenth amendment was added to the constitution of the United States yesterday when Secretary of State Knox signed the proclamation which will make the income tax a part of the organic law. The original joint resolution of congress, providing for this amendment was passed in 1910, and since that time three-fourths of all the states of the Union have ratified it, and the proclamation was merely the official announcement of this fact. The amendment empowers congress to enact an income tax law, which doubtless will be done at the forthcoming session. In responsible politicians and newspapers have been industriously telling the people that this action of the states was a rebuke to the supreme court which decided an income tax law unconstitutional. They insisted that this law was a form of "recall of decisions" which indicated that the people did not approve of the supreme court's course in the matter. But the satisfaction by he states was neither a "quake" nor a "recall" in any sense of the words. The supreme court based its decision upon the fact that the federal constitution . that then existed did not vest in congress the necessary authority to adopt a law taxing incomes. Therefore there was only one thing to do and that was done. As a result of that ruling the constitution has been so changed as to authorize the enactment of such a measure. The income tax law was passed by a Republican congress, and approved by a Republican president. That it was unconstitutional was a more insider-an unfortunate incident, as some people believe. But the supreme court could not have been blamed rightly for it deciding the law valid. True, the opinion was consumed in by a bate majority of the court, but this is a country ruled by majurities and to all intents and purposes the action of the court was just as borne as though it had been a unanimous decision by the full bench. The constitution by expression and implication sets the boundaries of congressional power, which is as it should be; for congress must be limited in its range of action or accordingly change its situation would sometimes result. As to the wisdom of an income tax that is still considerable doubt in the rumors of many persons, but that is a matter to be tested by recent congress has been also the authority in the law that shall be enacted.

Some are high-minded in regard to their appearance in dress; some are high-minded as to their cattings; others are high-minded as to their associates, while others are high-minded as to their sleeping arrangements, and Mr. Ira Smith, foreman, official mechanic and linotype operator for The Plaindealer office, is high-minded in the class last mentioned. In fact he is so high-minded as to his "sleeps" that he has quit the common custom of bed and pillow and has sought out a high place in the front row in the gallery of the state senate to repose his soul in the arms of old Morpheus. Here it was that on Monday of this week he held himself away from his labor, and while the law-makers were working away on measures for the good of the citizens of Kansas Mr. Smith drifted away into the land of dreams and while in dreamland his duty was the "calling of hops" and this the gentleman proceeded to do in a manner that disturbed the speakers. The deep abations of the sleeper sounded like distant rolls of thunder and the sonorous music rendered the transaction of business impossible, for all eyes were turned to the gallery. Of course this could not be endured, and a guard was sent to the sleeper to arouse him and when his eyes were opened to his surroundings there was a dive for headgear and a late-time shoot for the exit.

Sheuff kiene returned from Johnson, Tenn., last week with Florence Wynne, by requisition, charged with forging his wife's name on a chattel mortgage. He said Wynne was as harmless as a child and that when he returned to Memphis in the morning he stopped all day, leaving Wynne at the depot in charge of himself. He went up town to visit the jails and other public places and did not return until late in the evening to continue on journey to Tonka. All that time Wynne voluntarily reported to a policeman that was walking that beat, that he was a prisoner, and the sheriff was up town. When evening came and another policeman took the beat, Wynne reported the same to the other one, who said, "I'll ahead niggers if a man would come a thousand miles after you and leave you by yourself, you can go for all I care." Mr. Kiene said that in all the jails he visited, the departments where the colored people were kept were duty and filthy and it was inhuman to keep them in such places as was there for them. He remarked that the Southern white man treats the colored man like hates and it is a shame and a disgrace to American civilization. He said that he was treated as nice as he could expect and enjoyed the Southern hospitality. The Florence Wynne case is one where he and his wife could not agree and they had trouble over their property. It does not amount to anything serious.

IMPERIAL KINGDOM in the course of human life, behave, every patriotic rather, the great common wealth labor at the past unpatrolled and migratory, scientifically and womanly in the development of his nation, in his civilization in our race, if that we are not being encouraged in our strides, when we are allowed to an inferior race of the world. When we note the advancement that has been made by our race since 1815 under the administration of justice as defined by that martyr, Abraham Lincoln, we will acknowledge that nation on the top side of God's terrestrial globe has made the advancement that the Negro or Ethiopian has made since emancipation. In computing the time in which the Negro had to balance on the platform of civilization with other races, who can find in the annals that will compete with him? It has been said by the superior (to claim) race, "let the Negro make his own standard." I say so too, but the present standard is not high enough and let the Negro set him standard at a level above the standard at the superior race and let him work to attain it. Do not fight the Negro down by enacting the "Jim Crow" laws; do not fight the Negro back by disfranchisement. Give him his privileges granted every citizen under the constitutional laws, and he will set the standard for the world. The Negro is not in America for the purpose of putting an end to American civilization. But he is here to advance it, and I hope to see the time come when all prejudice will be a thing of the past, and the two races will join together and become a formidable foe to the enemies of good government. Oh, ye anne, and daughters of the Caucasian race, look not upon me because I am black, but let us combine our strength and establish a power to alarm the American standard.

He has already begun backing up the church. In a recent revival he had twenty converts. Mr. A. Wayman Ward, an "old" Topokan, is also enrolled in the Theological department. Mr. Ward has won for himself the name of "Bishop" in the university, having held a mock conference of men spell bound while bishop of the conference.
