OLD PARTIES N STRONG CA Republicans and Dem the Best in Their Ra at Some of th P. E. Laughlin, a Fine Specimen of Kansas' Best Will Make Race BY A. D. GRIFFIN. The Democratic party in Kansas has again chosen as its standard bearer for the important office of State Treasurer, the Hon. P. E. Laughlin, of Marysville, Kansas, assistant bank commissioner. In 1912, his party nominated him for this office and though he was defeated in November, his campaign was so marvelous that he is now the logical man to meet the enemy in this 1914 fight. Two years ago when he made the race against the present incumbent, he was so close to victory, losing by a few thousand plurality, a great achievement on the part of Mr. Laughlin, when we take into consideration that in 1910, Hon. Mark Tulley, running for a third term defeated his nearest competitor by something over forty-three thousand votes. A plurality for Tulley of nearly forty thousand in comparison with only three thousand votes plurality by Akers over Laughlin—and Tulley running for a third term, when he got forty thousand is a mighty big reduction, and demonstrates clearly that Mr. Laughlin is some campaigner and has many, thousand supporters, friends and admirers in Kansas. He has long been one of the foremost bankers and leading financiers in the stats and is a splendid assistant State Bank Commissioner. Up in Marysville, nearly every one knows him and all who do, like him. They say he is a capabe man, one of experience in the affairs of life, honest and industrious and one who has the confidence of the best and most substantial people in every community. The office of State Treasurer of Kansas, is an important one. Candidates with ability, experience, necessary age to give them proper poise as it possessed by this candidate, ability, honesty and confidence and esteem of the people and particularly of those who know him best should not be turned down. Too seldom is it that the men best fitted for public office allow themselves to be candidates. When one does present himself as Mr. Laughlin has done, his candidacy should not be taken lightly by the people. Mr. Laughlin has all of the essential qualities to fill this office creditably, and should not be turned down, ```markdown ``` The people of Kansas will not make any mistake if they elect him State Treasurer of Kansas, next November. We believe they are going to elect him. Mr. Butterick, the present county assessor of Wyandotte county is again a candidate and is meeting with flattering support. Every where you go in that county, you hear people talking of him and praises for his work and the equitable manner in which he has made the assessments in this county. Property owners and taxpayers everywhere are satisfied that he has given them fair assessments; they recognise the fact that he is well qualified for the office. He has lived in Kansas and Wyandotte county many years and is well versed in values of real and personal property and the voters are adverse to turning out an experienced and tried man for one untrad. He is gentlemanly in his bearing, everywhere and with all classes of people. He has been fair with the members of our race and they are almost to a unit giving him their support. He believes in considering the colored man and gives them employment, same of his deputies being Negroes. He is a staunch and active democrat, but notwithstanding that fact, whenever he is a candidate, many republicans vote for him, because they know the man and know he is all right and worthy of their votes. The most reliable forecast seems to be that he will be elected. He knows no man by his color in the administration of his official duties. He assesses the property of the rich the same as that of the poor. In many localities the rich stand in with the assessor and either are not assessed at all for some of their property, or are not assessed enough, and the property of the poor is assessed higher than it should to make up for the deficiency caused by the under and low assessment of that which belongs to the rich. Mr. Butterick is most fair in his treatment of the poor and considerate for the Negro and sees to it that they get fair treatment in their property assessments. He don't believe in one law for the rich and another for the poor and that the poor should be compelled to pay taxes on what some rich man TOPEKA, KANSAS. FRIDAY MORNING AUG. 28, 1914. R. E. LANGHURD P. E. LAUGHLIN, NEXT STATE TREASURER. owns, but should pay the lowest possible tax on what he owns and that the rich should do likewise, each paying on his own, but not on some one else's property. His administration of the office has been so fair, he is such a grand man and so well liked by the great mass of the people, that the prospects are he will be, elected for another term. He has given universal satisfaction and the people owning property know that they will be fairly assessed and the poor man, white and black, knows that he will not have to pay taxes on what some rich money baron owns so long as Mr. Butenick is their assessor and they from all indications intend that he shall continue as such. B. R. (BERT) COLLINS, REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE FOR SHERIFF. WYANDOTTE COUNTY. The Republicans of Wyandotte counjudgment in selecting such a clean, judgment in selecting such a clean, capable and conscientious man as Bert Collins for the office of sheriff of the county. Mr. Collins is a successful business man whose honesty is unquestioned and whose business capabilities are well attested by the splendid success achieved during the many years he has been in business in Kansas City. He is a prosperous merchant whose business capacity and sterling qualities fully equip him for the duties devolving upon the P. E. LAUGHLIN, NEXT herlif of such a rich and populous county as Wyandotte. He administration will be one of business and the interest of every citizen, both high and humble, will be well and faithfully served. He believes in applying strict business rules in conducting public offices and the hardling of public funds. He judges men by their worth and merit and has been a faithful and staunch friend to the colored people, all of whom now speak of him in terms most commendable and are giving him their hearty support. He is a man of his word and the highest sense of honor. R. J. McFARLAND, REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE FOR RE-ELEC TION TO THE OFFICE OF COURT OF WYAN. DOTTE COUNTY. R. J. McFarland, the genial and efficient clerk of the district court of Wyandotte County is a candidtae for re-election. Mr. McFarland has served one term and the high standard of efficiency maintained by him in that office speaks louder than words for his re-election. He is courteous and obliging and guards the interest of the county with conservative most commendable. He has been a life-long Lincoln Republican, yet he is District Clerk for all the people. The records in his office are models of neatness and precision and furnish armirtakable evidence of the highest clerical proficiency. He is asking for a second term and is entitled to it and his re-election will be but a fitting reward of merit bestowed upon at all times pleased to give the public most courteous service. He is an old citizen of the county and is held in highest esteem by all who know him. KANSAS CITY, KANSAS, WYAN DOTTE COUNTY. The voters at the late primaries did some nice things—among them was the renomination in Wyandotte County of Judge John T. Sims, as the Judge of the Probate and Juvenile Courts of that county, offices of which he is the present incumbent. As the Judge of these courts he is the right man in the right place. Wyandotte County, the largest county in the state in point of population, naturally has much business in these courts. Here each month, come many matters for his attention. Judge Sims attends to them personally and is equal to the task. He is a hard worker, capable, efficient and honest, and has given a splendid administration of the duties intrusted to him. Statistics show that all of the property in a Kansas county passes into the Probate Court once every thirty years for administration. Good titles therefore to our real estate depend on the ability, care and honesty with which the estates of our deceased, insane and minors are administered upon. The proceedings must be regular and according to law. Judge Sims, so handles matters that there are no complaints of him. connection. T STATE TREASURER. The Juve-ile Judgeship affords a fine opportunity for a man to show what is in him and demonstrate to the people what kind of a man he is. Judge Sims is called the "Good Samaritan". He krows how to deal with the boys, the future citizens, who come before him. He is kind to them acting the part of a capable, honorable and loving father. They like him ard are better boys and will be better men by reason of having come in contact with him, and under his control and influence. In addition to doing the things required of him by law, Judge Sims renders much assistance to "his boys" in a financial way out, of his own pocket. Recently he helped financially, one frail little fellow who was very ill with pneumonia. One struggling boy he helped through High School and fitted out two other boys with the necessary paraphernalia to make them Marconi Wireless Telegraph operators. Judge Sms is a great and good man. The property and effects over which the Probate Judge has jurisdiction pre safe in his hands. The boys will be better off by reason of him being their Judge and the people of Wysandotte should re-elect him in November. How much better it is to have a place like the Juvenile Court with a splendid man like Judge Sims at the head of it, where the delinquent and neglected youth and the criminally incited can go and receive fatherly treatment and be made into useful men than that they should according to the old way be thrown into jail among criminals, lice, gray backs and fifth disease and go out if they ever get out to follow a criminal life. For them, purposes for which this court was created, the right man is now the Judge of that Court in Wyandotte county. The people there, men and women will show their good judgment, love of their boys and girls, and their general regard for the future welfare of the boys and girls by voting for Judg Sims. He has made good. J. THE LATE J. B. FLEMING. A Friend and Leader Gone! A Friend and Leader Gone! When the news was flashed out over the state Tuesday that John B. Fleming of Horton was dead, it cast a pall and gloom over the colored citizens throughout Kansas. They felt keenly the loss of brave, fearless leader and wise counsellor. No gathering where the interest and advancement of his race was sought, ever assembled without the presence of Mr. Fleming, and his advice was eagerly sought. He was a deep thinker and a fine diplomat. He was never known to venture without first giving a matter careful thought and consideration, and in nine cases out of every ten, was always right. This writer has worked in politics with Mr. Fleming for many years, and, a truer man never lived. His high integrity, honesty and streightforwardness, encircled him with a web of warm friends among men of all races. He was a man that never rested upon his arms. He was always up and doing for his race which he placed before everything else, and he spent his money freely in the battle for the uplift of his people. In politics, John Fleming was a power, not only within his own race, but his influence with the most influential white business men and politicians placed him in a class by himself. His demise will be a great blow to the colored people of Kansas in their struggle for a foothold and fair treatment. Mr. Fleming was a good business man and was evidenced by his accumulations. No man in all Kansas was held in higher esteem by his town's people than John Fleming. The mayor issued a proclamation and the business men closed their stores out of respect for him and the most of them attended the funeral, which no doubt the largest funeral ever given a colored man in Kansas, and many old timers said it was the largest ever witnessed in Horton. If there is such a thing as people being Christians, (and we believe it) they certainly dwell in Horton. Bankers, lawyers doctors, clerks, railroad officials and men of all walks of life stood with bowed heads and hearts filled with grief over the loss of their colored brother, who had proven that he was a man every respect—truthful, trustworthy and honorable. In all of our long years of experience in public life, we have never before witnessed such a scene. A delegation of Mr. Fleming's friends from Topeka attended the funeral and among them was a life insurance agent, who several years Price $1.50 Per Year. Be Re-elected and women will show their good judgment, love of their boys and girls, and their general regard for the future welfare of the boys and girls by voting for Judg Sims. He has made good. was met at the depot by Mr. M. G. Holloway, who escorted them to the family residence. Judge Stewart, Mr. Fleming's tried true friend, a man who stood by him in his every undertaking, was also among the large concourse of grief stricken friends. Floral offerings were sent from all section, and their arrangement by Mr. J. S. Henderson, the funeral director added to their rare beauty. At the grave, his romains were consigned to earth according to the beautiful Masonic ritual of the dead. Peace to his ashes.—A. D. G. In the death of John Fleming, Horton loss another citizen and business man who has been intimately connected with the town almost since its birth. Judge W. I. Stuart, at that time a struggling young lawyer who had just hung out his shingle in Horton, was responsible for John Fleming's coming to Horton 27 years ago. He helped Fleming get a start in a little shack, and the young colored man, being a good barber and pleasant and obliging, soon had a nice business established. He built up the largest shop in the town and doubtless ran his own shop longer than any barber in Northeast Kansas. He was a great adherent of Judge Stuart and ever ready to back him or his friends. John Fleming was known all over the state as a politician with an unusual amount of influence with his race, as well as a wide acquaintance in his home district. He attended all sorts of county, district and state conventions and was also twice a delegate to the national Republican convention. He was an unusual colored man, and he had many very strong friends among the white people. He was regarded as one of the leaders of his race in Kansas, and put himself out many a time to help some unfortunate one. John Fleming's death will be a loss to Horton in many ways. He worked hard for the town and he was willing to help any enterprise or man who came from Horton. He occupied a distinct niche in the life of the town that it will be hard to fill, and he large funeral Thursday afternoon attested the respect and friendship this community had for him."—Chas, H. Browne, editor of Horton Headlight-Commercial. "John Burley Fleming died at his home Tuesday at 2:15 a.m. from the affects of an attack of appendicitis, after an illness of only five days duration. By audien was his death that it was a shock to everyone. He worked at the barber shop all day Wednesday, Aug. 19, and went home in the evening feeling quite fatigued. -_ a ae 7. a , a oF Se <a? eee en ets «a eR ek a EE ae ae: fs, 4 eee Te ES OF a a cm is * . s Fis ee “” cel SE Ta a . | z . e . , Boek Phe BW tea Cressey mw ar We Are Interested in Beauty Everywhere. : 9 OxfordCollege Majors of fordalleae " 4246 W.

The pastor's sermon on "The Stirring of the Eagle's Nest," carried with it so many practical references and ideas, all applicable to the lives and experiences of so many, that the entire congregation was made to feel that he had been inspired to bring a message of consolation as well as admonition to all. The audience was large and attentive as usual. St. John people are to be highly congratulated upon their devotional spirit in worship and the marked attention given the speaker. The Sunday school was more than interesting. The Endeavor likewise was very profitably led by Mrs. R. H. Wade. The evening service was somewhat cut short in numbers, owing to the late evening shower. However, the program rendered was splendid and the sermon by the Rev. Dr. Hamlett, former pastor of Lane Chapel and present editor-in-chief of the Christian Index, Jackson, Tenn., was simply grand—such as only Dr. Hamlett can give. In the afternoon a large number accompanied the pastor to the Topeka cemetery where many citizens of Topeka had gathered to witness the interment of the remains of "Moher Brown," which had been held in the receiving vault awaiting the coming of her granddaughter, Lulu Mae, from California. One of our old members, Mrs. Rebecca Williams, who with her husband, lived for a number of years 1 North Topeka, moving to Highland Park early last spring, died at her home yesterday morning. Her funeral will be preached at the church Sunday afternoon. Pearly Rose Tabernacle No. 77 will have charge. Mr. Walker, of Walnut Grove, has been quite ill but better at this writing. Mrs. Walker, his wife, is visiting in Omaha at this time. Miss Lutie Hawkins returned from Chicago to simply give old home a flance and took leave immediately for Wichita to visit her sister, Mrs. Rev. Williams. Rev. William Williams of Kanea City and Rev. C. A. Williams, of Wichita, were guests this week in their mother, Mrs. A. Williams or Bucharman street. Mrs. Robinson, her daughter from Kanea City, also spent the week with mother.

RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT Once more our ranks have been broken and he Death Angel has removed from our midst, Mother Julia Brown, who died Sunday, Aug. 16 at 2:30 o'clock. We realize that our earthly stay is transitory and that and clean, preparatory to the call of ```markdown ``` We know not the day nor the hour, it behoves us to be in readiness, so when the Death Angel knocks at the door of our heart, we can bid him good. This is the second link, that has been removed from our Sewing circle this year. One by one, we are going. Mother Browne will be completely missed. Whereas, Mother Brown was andiring in her work for Christ and St. John's A. M. E. church experiences her loss, therefore he will resolved that we bow our heads in humble submission to His will and acknowledge Him as our Savior, and Resolved that we strive to desci- late her life, in that she was ever ready to testify for Christ and that we ever cherish her memory, rema- boring that through her love, she made many sacrifices for the temp- she loved. She is not dead, but sleepeth; close- ly sweet eyes calmly and without pain, and we will trust in God to see thee yet again. Ladies Sewing Circle. A young lady clad in an immaculate gown, seated herself upon a bench in front of this office one evening this week and proceeded to remove her shoes. When the job was completed, except the placing of the shoes into a paper box, the writer stepped out of the office, and before we could utter a word she sternly remarked, "Man, my feet are just killing me, and if you put my name in that Plaindealer in regard to this incident, I'll horsewhip every man that works on the paper but what I get the guilty party." The expression of her face convinced us that she was not joking. She picked up her box and wended her way south on Kansas avenue, and no doubt she felt greatly relieved, and in the picture will buy shoes to fit her feet instead of her eyes.
