"Minh" Veale is a splendid young fellow and will make a fine race for judge of the court of Topeka. He is a bright young fellow, a good lawyer and if elected would make an excellent judge. Bob Taiker wants a third term. Clip his wings. Mike Alt, candidate for clerk of the court of Topeka is making great headway in the campaign and it looks as if he will be elected. He is an industrious young man, having worked his way through school and his many friends are doing everything in their power to nominate him. Don't vote for Bob Tasker. He has the gall and cheek to ask the Republicans of Shawnee county to give him a third term in the office of register of deeds. He did not keep his word with the colored people, and therefore they have no right to support him if it was his second time up. If Bob Tasker is given a third term, he has just gall and nerve enough to ask the people to turn the office over to him as long as he lives. He's had too much already, pass him up. Because a man is your friend and a good fellow is no reason why we should place him into an office that is beyond his caliber. You can't make a .22 fill the place of a .44, and thus it is with selecting men for office. Mr. Paul Heinz, one of the Republican candidates for judge of the court of Topeka, is one of the finest young men in the city. We have known him from childhood, and like him as an individual, but believe that he is taching more than he will be able to handle. He has the making of a good lawyer, but at this time, his experience is too limited to preside over this court. It will be best to let Paul wait a few years. We are informed that he was admitted to the bar about a year and a half ago, then are we not correct in our charge that his experience is insufficient for this important office? Would you like to have a judge at in your case who has only been a fulfledged lawyer only a year and a half? We think not. Many important civil cases, where large sums of money and property are involved pass through this court and it takes a man of experience to handle them properly. We advise that the voters let Paul wait a few years, then he will be ripe and ready for the judiciary and we'll all throw off our costs and jump in and elect him. There will be a large number of sader but wiser ginks after August 4th. One day last week, The Topeka State Journal paid a deserving tribute to Mr. Harry V. Whitlow, who rounded out twenty-five years of service with the Topeka Railway company. From motorman to bookkeeper and from there to the position of handling all of the cash, is a long and commendable stride up the rugged hill of life for a poor boy. Out of all this time, Mr. Whitlow has never been repremanded, a splendid record, and one that can be pointed to with a finger of pride, and will serve as a happy inspiration to the youngsters who are daily enlisting in the ranks to struggle for their daily bread and a foothold in the world. Everybody knows Harry Whitlow. He has assisted men, women and children to catch the right car, etc., for a quarter of a century, and no one has ever charged him with being discourteous—he's a born gentleman and comics from a sturdy family that has contributed much toward making the conditions of their fellow man happy. His motto has always been "all men up and no man down Mr. Whitlow has shown the colord people the same courtesy as the white, and always took particular palms with the old colored men and women, whom he knew to be unable to read. He has won a warm place in the hearts of many men and women of color, and they are doing everything in their power to aid him in his candidacy for registrar of deeds. Mr. Whitlow is a staunch Republican. The Democrats want to see Bob Tasker nominated for a third as they know they can defeat him. Nominate Bob Tasker and the Democrats will capture one of the most important offices in Shawnee county. Rugh MacFarland has made one of the best probate and juvenile judges that ever served the people of any county. His manner of handling kids cannot be beaten. He has a way of getting up next to the boys and once in his hands, but few break their parole. He is square as they make 'em and never forgets a friend. He is asking for the customary second term. --- Our esteemed friend, Sheriff L. L. Keine, a sworn pure Republican and staunch friend of the colored people, has no opposition for the nomination. However, this does not mean that the voters should overlook him in the primaries. He should receive the full vote of the party. He is a fine fellow and has a fine lot of deputies in the persons of Messrs Hugh Larimer, Ed. Carver and Joe Holeman. These men have rendered invaluable service. The colored voters will never give Bob Tasker another chance to deceive them. He is asking for a third term. Gee, what gall! Mr. Paul Heinz, candidate for judge of the count of Topeka, is a mere boy and has had less than two years experience in the practice of law. He's a fine boy, but is reaching a little too high. It takes a man of wide experience for this important place, and we deem it a wise thing to let Paul wait a few years. Think this matter over seriously and think if you want a boy of so little experience in the legal world setting in judgment on a case where thousands of dollars—your good hard cash or property is involved? Better look for a man of experience. Bob Tasker warts a third term. Don't be deceived again by Bob's sugar coated promises. Pass him up. He's had too much already. Art Hargis, Republican candidate for county treasurer, is looming up big just now. His friends are enthusiastic in their efforts to land he plum for him and they declare that they are going to turn the trick. Mr. Hargis needs no introduction to the voters of Shawnee counties, especially among the colored people. He has been engaged in the drug business for years in this city, and all are acquainted with Art and know just where he stands when it comes to dealing with them. He is fair and impartial to all men, and before he ever dreamed of becoming a candidate for office was a friend of the race, and those who visited his store were shown every courtesy, and enjoyed every right and privilege as the whistest person on earth. Moral worth and true manhood is the standard by which he manhood kind. He is in every way competent to fill the office of county treasurer and if elected will serve the taxpayers to the best of his ability. "I have this one thing strongly in my favor," said Mr. Hargis to a reporter for The Plaindealer. "I've made a success of my personal business and will do the rane thing for the voters and taxpayers of Shawnee county if they honor me with their confidence, and my every effort will be to convince them that they made no mistake in choosing me." Mr. Hargis is an honest as the day is long; well educated and has had a wdo experience in the business world. He also Graduated from the school of hard knocks, having been reared on a farm where he learned to work, and that it is an honor to labor. His individual success spends volumes for him as a business man and citizen. Mr. Hargis has many friends among the colored people—men and women and they are loud in their praise of him and declare that he will be the next man to watch over Shawnee county's cash CHANUTE, KANSAS.

TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING JULY 28 1914. BASE BALL AT IOLA. After defeating the fast league team of Parsons on the 12th inst., by score of 2 to 0, the Iola Boosters were shut out by the Go-Devils, Iola's fast colored team by a score of 5 to 0. Harold, the Go-Devil's southpaw, with his bewildering speed struck out eight men and allowed but two hits, while Leahman of the Boosters also pitched a remarkable game allowing the heavy hitting Go-Devils only seven hits and striking out eight men. Buster Gordon, the Go-Devils new short stop played an excellent game, and proved himself to be one of the best infielders in the state. A Grubbs and Sweatt were the batting stars, each getting two hits in four times up. Four doubles were made off Leahman. W. W. EVANS IN TOPEKA. Well Known Hutchinson Politician and Leader Spends a Few Days With His Mans Friends. Hon. Water W. Evans, of Hutchinson, spent several days in the city last week among his friends and acquaintances, and as usual, the boys were glad to see the old war horse from the Salt City. When asked about politics, a foxy look swept over his countenance as he remarked, "No I'm not on a political mission, just want to rest a day or so and see my old friends. Anyway, there is only one man in whom I am particularly interested, and that's my old friend, W. Y. Morgan, and everyone I meet here in Topeka is the same way—they're for Morgan, so I am satisfied." Mr. Evans is chairman of the finance committee of the K. of P. order, secretary of the Kansas Lincoln Day club and also co-lector for the city of Hutchinson, a position he has held for the past four years. His friends all over the state are urging him to make the race for Grand Chancellor of the Knights of Pythias at the grand session in Fort Scott next week.

Every woman knows the tremendous difference in hair oil—differences in quality, in purity, in fineness—in the way they adhere to the scalp and in appearance on the hair. Your hair oil has always been a real problem. You will find the nearest approach to your idea of a perfect oil in Majors' Hair Oil. Heretofore you have had difficulty in finding an oil of sufficient fineness that would adhere to your scalp. Have you not been obliged to sacrifice one advantage for the other? Now, in Majora' Oxford Hair Oils, you have both a product of remarkable fineness, and at the same time one which adheres perfectly. Some oils, to gain adherent properties., contain injurious substances. OXFORD HAIR OIL is pure as the driven snow. It comes in paste and liquid. OXFORD HAIR OIL is boiled time after time to a degree of fineness that is most unusual. It is practically invisible on your hair, gives the true, natural glossy effect of real beauty. THE FINEST MATERIALS ARE USED, the greater proportion of which are imported.

Beware of the candidates for the third term on the Republican ticket. In Shawnee county, Bob Tasker, who is now serving his second term as register of deeds is now playing the swine act by asking for a third term. A man who claims to be as brave as he in the far off Phillippines, where he swam the Bag Bag, a stream like the Kaw river—always dry except during a flood, and who also scaled the walls of China, which were erected a thousand years before Christ and captured a few pig-tails and then come all the way back to Kansas singing his own praises with a halo circle of glory around his head, saying look what a hero I am and what heroic deeds I have accomplished by defending the flag, swimming the Bag Bag, scaling the walls of China! In fact there are no heroic deeds to be accomplished in fighting unarmed, defenseless people who were trying to be at peace with everyone. Of course there were a few fellows who sought notriety to come back and live easy the balance of their lives. We hope the voters of Shawnee county will not be misled by this man who poses as a Republican and has been elected a second time to the office of register of deeds. He has been amply paid for every thing he has performed for county, state or nation, and now we think it but just and fair that some other good man have the office. Bob made many pre-election promises and never fulfilled a single promise! `THINGS WORTH KNOWING.

Mr. Stroud of the Automatic Telephone Co. says that he is going ahead and secure signers and expects to go before the city commissioners in a short time asking permission to let the people vote on the proposition. He says that he is not at all frightened, but it just beginning to work hard and expects to do great good for the citizens of Topeka. The friends of Hon. John S. Dawson around Hill City say that he is the man to vote for for Justice of the Supreme Court. He has little race prejudice as any man on earth and that he is cool blind Hon. H. H. Tucker, president of the Uncle Sam Oil Co., is holding big meetings all over the state, and it is generally conceded that he will be the Republican nominee for United States Senator. Every loyal colored man and woman who believes in the doctrine of Abraham Lincoln should take a hunch and vote for H. H. Tucker. He is the son of one of the most gallant soldiers that ever went to war, and it's bred in him to fight and make any sacrifice for the down-trodden and oppressed. A BIG BARGAIN.

Burton Man Would Make Harvey County a Fine Register of Dews. Here we have the right man and we should do all we can to put him in the right place.

He has resided in Burton since nine years during which time he served as township treasurer, almost the entire time.

These pictures are "Uncle Seiph" and little Miss Evangeline Bowman, daughter of Senator N. L. Bowman. These two are inseparable companions and without "Uncle Seiph" the family would be like a chain with one of its most important links gone. He has been in Senator Bowman's family for years and years and the chances are that he will be a member of this family when Gabriel sounds the trumpet for him to cross on the other side. A Word About T. B. Boyd,Republican Candidate for County Treasurer. Tom Boyd, as he is more familiarly known, was born in Topeka thirty-seven years ago at 1114 Taylor street, where his father, Ben Boyd, now resides and has lived since 1869. After receiving a common school education, Tom began his career as office boy in the passenger department of the Santa Fe railroad and has worked his way up to an important position in the accounting department. His experience in the distribution of Millions of dollars of the company's funds and the accounting features in connection therewith, qualify him to handle with eases the office of county treasurer. Then too, he is a taxayer, a man with a large family who knows something about responsibility. Tom has played ball and romped on the hills and in school with many of the old-timers of this city, some of them are Tom and George McAdoo, John Patterson, Jack Jordan George Weaver and Jake Prer, and he says that they are all his friends, and that he enjoyed the happiest days of his boyhood in those old days. He feels that he should have a large vote from the colored people from the fact that his father always gave them employment. Mr. Boyd is employed in the Santa Fe offices and has a host of friends among all classes as he has always tried to treat everyone as he wishes them to treat him. He is well acquainted in Shawne county, and has the encouragement and best wishes of a number of voters. MR. GLENN WOODS FOR COUNTY TREASURER Well Known Walton Farmer Seeks the Republican Nomination. Elsewhere in The Plaindealer will be found the formal announcement of G'enn Woods of Walton, for the Republican nomination for county treasurer. It seems unnecessary to offer any comment on Mr. Woods' candidacy in the way of an introduction inasmuch as no man in the county has wider acquaintance than he. He is well known as one of the tallest men in the county, and will make a tall race during the campaign. Mr. Woods was born near Indianapolis, Ind, and came to Harvey county in the spring of 1879 with his parents. The elder Woods bought a farm from a homesteader near Walton, and the home has been on a farm there since that time. Glenn has been a buyer and feeder of live stock for a great many years and has made a success of that and the farming business, this demonstrating that he is a man of good judgment and business ability, and cannble of looking after the accounts of the county. He has always taken a prominent part in public matters serving on his township and school district boards. He was one of the leaders in the acquisition of the new building and improved schools Walton now has. He has always stood for progressive ideas in his community and had the first farm telephone in the county. He has been supporting the county farm club is a good road booster and is always found backing every movement which has for its purpose the benefitting of the community and county. He has a most estimable family his oldest son now bring in the Walton High school. Mr. Woods, since becoming a vote, has been a firm believer and worker in the Republican party. He has never held a county office though he came near being shrift some 22 o. 23 years ago. Under the old convention system his friends sought to remit him when E. E. Pollard was up for his second term. Pollard war the older man at the game in those days and won out by a close vote. That was the extent of Woods' running for office up to the present. He states that he is situated to make a vigorous campaign look before and after the primary election. It nominated Mr. Woods will no doubt be strength to the party ticket and if elected in November, will prove a credit to the people of the county through the maneuver in which he conducts his business.

LITTLE, Candidate for Justice Kansas Supreme Court ELOCUTION, VOICE, PIANO, VIOLIN, BAND and ORCHESTRA; TEACHERS TRAINED IN THE BEST COLLEGE in the COUNTRY. ALL THE TRADES, DRAWING, PAINTING, DOMESTIC SCIENCE, DOMESTIC ART. Kinaley Graphic, (Jas. M. Lewis), Dem Col. Edward Little of the Twentieth Kansas has a very wide support among the voters of all political parties. He is noted as a scholar writer, lawyer and soldier and has enjoyed the advantages of travel. He is recognized as being one of the best lawyers in the state. The style and the purity of his English will give his opinions a literary finish that has not been found in that august body since the days of Judge Frank Doster. While in the military service he was very popular because he never forgot the welfare of his men, and the soldiers of his regiment are among his strongest supporters in the present campaign. Colonel Little is a fine man personally and his well known probity will insure that his decisions will voice the spirit of law and not of prejudice, for he wears the collar of no man or corporation. FARM OF SIXTY ACRES-EIGHT BUILDINGS. FOR CATALOG AND OTHER INFORMATION WRITE TO Parens Eclipse, (C. A. Lamb). Dem Years ago when it took nerve to fight for the rights of the average man, Edward C. Little was an able eloquent and sturdy champion of those rights. He ought to have the vote of every man that wants to elect a scholarly, clean thinking judge who won't be hamstrung by technicalities every time he is called upon to render a decision, but has a heart as well as a head. Kansas City Gazette Globe, (Grant W. Harrington). Dem. While the people of the state are proud of the work done by the Twentieth Kansas in the Philippine Islands they have yet to elect one of its members to a state office. Colonel Little has written sketches of western life for Everybody's and Pearson's magazines, and has a trenchant pen. He is a student not only of the law, but of everything, bearing upon progress and human welfare. His public record shows him to be in sympathy with the masses. His candidacy will enable the University of Kansas to secure the recognition heretofore denied of having one of its graduates in the supreme court and of placing upon the supreme bench a thoroughly well-equipped scholar and lawyer. He has a large practice in this city. 42 Years Successful Business in Winfield, Kansas. Emporia Gazette, (William Allen White), Prog. The suggestion that Colenel Edward Campbell Little, late of the Twentieth Kansas, of municipal fame, be put on the Kansas supreme bench by the friends of good government, without respect to party, is a good one. No other Kansas man combines as Colenel Little does the scholarship, the legal training, the open mind, the progressive spirit, the fundamentally democratic viewpoint. He would strengthen the Kansas court and his influence on that court always would be for social and industrial progress, and the court would reflect admirably the forward looking spirit of Kansas today. What a fine thing it would be to have on the, court a man like Edward Campbell Little! The J. E. Baker Mer. Co. Garden City, Kansas. THE COLORED PEOPLE OF GARDEN CITY all know that they are politely and promptly waited upon when they enter our store. We make no distinction between white and black people. We appreciate your business and want. There are good and bad copies of all colors in every community. Those who pay their bills promptly we run accounts with, to be settled every week or month as the case may be. Those who do not pay promptly as agreed, we decline to run accounts with, whether they are white or colored, rich or poor. Hutchinson, Gazette, (O'Connor), Dem. There is something very fitting in the candidacy of Colonel, Little in the first nonpartisan election of justices of the supreme court, for Colonel Little has sympathetic friends in all parties. This does not come from the fact that Colonel Little is a non-partisan, rather the contrary. If one were looking for the original progressive, he would just about have to pick Colonel Little, for he was an advocate of the principles that the leaders of all parties now endorse when it was less popular than it is now to have been for them. It is the general recognition of this fact that is bringing Colonel Little enunciations from editors of every party. It is as a high grade lawyer of real ideals that Colonel Little's candidacy appeals. Kansas will show that she knows how to use the nonpartisan ballot for supreme court justices to advantage by electing Colonel Little to the state's highest court. The J. E. Baker Mercantile Co.

Little is an honest upright, industrious, clean cut lawyer if elected he will make a just and honorable judicial officer. Norton Champton (Ian Conway) Ber. Norton Champion, (Jno Conway), Rep Colonel Little, aside from being qualified to alt, is one of the most courtly gentlemen in the world. The Champion is glad of a chance to support him. Hawatha Democrat, (F M Pearl). Mr. Little has a heart and soul that beat in unison with that of the great masses of the people. He is in full sympathy with their hopes and aspirations and is a real idealist. He is a graduate of the state university and the time has come when the graduates of the law department of the University of Kansas want to argue their cases to one of their number. It is passing strange that no graduate of the law department of the University of Kansas has ever held a place on the supreme bench. Mr. Little measures up to all of the requirements of the position and we hope to see him nominated and elected. He has held many positions of trust and confidence and never failed to make good. He is a soldier, a patron and a fine citizen and is worthy of the position now which he enjoys. Mr. and Mrs. John Douglas spent last Sunday at Grantville.

FURNISHED ROOMS REASONABLE PRICES her husband in 1884 where she after- ard united with the Second Baptist Church on the third Sunday in May under the pastorate of Rev. Reevely. She had lived since that time a devout, staunch, Christian, ever ready to stand for justice and right. Three years ago her health began to fail and no means were spared to restore it. About a month ago she went to her old home in Nashville,, Tenn., hoping to be benefited, but He who knoweth best had need of her and sent the swift rider to convey her home. His speed was stayed sufficiently for him to reach her home Wednesday, June 14th at 3 p. m., and on Thursday July 15th at 2:05 p. m., she closed her eyes in that sleep from which none ever wakes to weep. One son, a foster mother of four children and a number of relatives and many friends mourn her demise. Revolutions from the Senior Choir of Broadway Presbyterian Church Calvary Baptist Church: . . . Whereas, It has pleased the Divine Ruler of the heavens and earth to remove from our midst, Sister Bettle Watson, and. Whereas; She was a faithful member of the Second Baptist choir for a number of years, only ceasing her activities on account of her illness and. Whereas; Her lovable disposition, punctuality, Christian zeal and fidelity endeared her to us and were inspirations to her fellow members, therefore be it. Resolved; That at her death we humbly bow in submission to the will of Divine Providence who doeth all things well, that we realize that our loss is heaven's gain and tho her mem berishment has ceased in this earthly choir we believe that her voice with renewed sweetness has been added to those of the heavenly choir where illness can ne'r come to mar its richness nor weaken the tones that shall sing His praises forever, be it further. Resolved; That we extend to the bereaved family our heartfelt sympathy in this sad hour and bid them to Weep no more at Nature's decree. For our sister has passed to a higher degree. Her trials are o'er her victory won And she beckons you in her foot- steps on. Earth's flowers mustwither and fall by the way. But morning shall dawn in the sweet hive and hive Where we shall say nowdy and never good-bye. MRE. LUCY ANDERSON, Pres. MRS. IDA PAYNE, Sec'y. LAWRENCE CHORiseer Dr. A. K. LAWRENCE,Choriseer DR. A.

Hardrick, the junoir member of Hardrick Bros., was held from the residence July 4th at 2 p. m., with Rev. J. M. Harris officiating. Mr. B. A. Hardrick was one of the most highly respected men in our city by both races, and was a great business leader. The Hardrick Bros. have conducted a grocery store in Springfield for the last thirty-three years of which the citizens are very proud, and all members of our race would be equally as proud had they the opportunity to see the store, which is the largest grocery store in the southwest conducted by Negroes. A large number of friends attended the funeral and the floral offerings were many. The most beautiful designs that could be purchased were sent by friends. Hymn lined by Rev J. M. Harris. Prayer by Rev. D. A. Holmes. Song, "Lead Kindly Lights," Choir. Scripture reading by Rev. T. A. Harvey. Prayer by Rev. Greer. Song, "Jesus Savior Pilot Me." Rev. J. M. Harris.

The pall bearers consisted of the Hardrick Bros'. employees, Ralph Tindell, Albert Jarrett, Henry Stemmons, Harry Rollins, Eugene Mitchell, James Abernathy; honorary pall bearers: Henry Herndon, Julius Herndon, Balford Grey, Allen Jackson. The Womans' Musical and Literary club met at the home of Mr. and Mrs. W. R. Fullbright on Weaver street. It was one of the most delightful meetings experienced by the members for some time, owing to the fact that Hon. Mr. Fullbright and wife are such charming entertainers as host and hostess. Mrs. Fullbright is amiable little mistress and understands housekeeping from the parlo to the kitchen—especially from the latter as evidenced by the excellent three course menu prepared and Mr. Fullbright, who is called the "silver tongued orator," delighted, complimented and encouraged and deeply interested their guests with one of his sublime intellectual addresses. Aftr the regular routine of business, several beautiful gifts were bestowed. To the president, Mrs. Mary A. Jarrett, the club members presented a beautiful gift for her valuable service for the year just closed. The presents presented by the hoste Mrs. Bertha Fulbright; Mrs. Sophroolis Day received the lovely guests' prize and Mrs. B. B. Cooper received a lovely prize for the best quotation. A good program was rendered, and the instrumental and reading numbers given by Mrs. Dr. J. B. Clark and Mrs. Sopronia Day made it much more enjoyable. A pleasing talk was well received by Mrs. Lucy Jarrett Johnson, of Kansas City. Mrs. Fulbright was assisted in serving by Mrs. Hattie Abernathy. The next meeting of the club will be with Mrs. Delia Smith, 1005 Sherman street. Author, Sir Walter Scott. The united brotherhood of Masons of this city held its annual rally—raising means to be applied on their beautiful temple on Boonville street. It was an afternoon well spent in good logical facts, addresses, papers, etc., by the representatives of of different orders, and every number was well received. This grand gathering was held in Convention hall, its line of march was headed by Springfield's band. The following different orders responded to roll call with the following collections: Excelsior Lodge No. 39, $15.50. Queen City Court, $12. Golden Gate $9.80. Public collection $10.05.

Grand Master and William Smith, master of ceremonies. The entire community sustains a great loss in the death of Mr.. B. A. Hardrick. He was beloved and respected by all who knew him, not only in this city, but in other states and cities. Not only the family, but the city has lost a great, good man. He was cultured, refined and unassuming. He was not only handsome and beautiful in personal appearance, but more beautiful and handsomer characteristics permeated every fiber of his being. You might well say that Mr. Hardrick was a twin brother to Mr. Jas S. Hardrick in every respect. In business relations they had been closely united for thirty-three years. Socially, they erected and enjoyed the elegant double house at the Dollison Place. During their entire life where one brother was you could very closely locate the other. The rent was a great one to Mr. J. S. Hardrick, and our consolation and sympathy seem empty, and we commend him to God, one who can bind up and heal all of earth's great sorrows. To his wife, Mrs. Jaunita Hardrick, to his sister, Mrs. Mayme Hardrick and to his other relatives and friends, the entire community of both races express deepest sympathy. Mr. Hardrick was an exemplary husband, brother, friend and citizen. His life was a beautiful one and his even genial smile, "How do you do, his usual manner of greeting one, his good deeds and actions will live in the hearts of men. Mr. B. A. Hardrick is not dead, but sleepeth. Mrs. Martin of Garnett, Kansas, enjoyed a very pleasant visit with her daughter and son, Dr. and Mrs. E. A. Harris of East Center street.
