Judge T. J. Flannelly of Montgomery County Has Made an Ideal Jurist and Has Rendered His Decisions According ty Law, Righteousness and Justice. His A great contest is being waged in Montgomery, county for judge of the district court. Pitted against that gallant statesman, bright lawyer and sane jurist, Judge Flannelly, is one Joseph P. Rosalter, who has conceived an idea that he is qualified to grace the bench of that county. He has and is resorting to all kinds of disputable methods to turn the voters against Judge Flannelly. No man has ever sought such a dignified position and used such methods as this man is resorting to in this campaign and no man who would do such a thing is fit to be elevated to the bench, but instead he should be so soundly rebuked by the voters that he would become ashamed and leave the community without further ceremony. Judge Flannelly is a clean, manly man; an excellent sample of the highest type of American manhood. He is all that the term gentleman implies, which he has doubly proven since Mr. Rosalte began his present campaign of filth and deception against him. The Judge has never lost his gentlemanly bearing by offering to participate in such a disreputable fight. An old adage: "You cannot, skin a skunk without getting stink upon your hands," is mighty true and it is from this point that our good friend Judge Flannelly views the present campaign methods resorted to in order to rob him of a place that he has filled with honor and dignity. The Judge is fair, square and impartial in his dealings, with all men rich, poor, white and black, all look alike to him and all will receive justice at his hands. No one can use a single instance where Judge Flanley has shown any favorism in a single thing he has done. No one knows these facts better than the voters and citizens of Montgomery county. They've seen Judge Flannelly tried under any and all circumstances only to see him take a clean, fair, manly stand. Using justice as his guiding star, the Judge has added dignity to the Montgomery county bench, and today it is considered to be one of the best district courses in the state, and is often pointed to as a model by judges and lawyers in other states. As an example of some of the many unmany tactics being employed by Judge Hannelly's opponent, the following extract from a speech delivered by him will give the voters a slight idea of what is being done: In Woodman Hall at Sycamore, Kas., on Sept. 25, 1914, J. P Rositer said: "Down, in Coffeyville, I have been told, they have bought nigger votes at $3.50 a head and the banker who will sell his franchise for money in his bank is no better than a nigger who sells his vote for $3.50; but if he has that money in the banks and honestly stays by his sentiments he is a noble man." The above statement is from the lips of a man who wants to preside over a district court out here in educated Kansas, where people are cultured, educated and believe in a square deal for all men. His language proves that he is about as well qualified for a judge as a braying ass. His language is that of the cock pit and barroom bum, and as Kansas has none of these resorts he had best seek a new field where his kind dwell and rule. Think of a man running for judge of the court—a place where justice is distributed to all men alike, standing up before an audience delivering himself in such a manner. It can be plainly seen that he seeks to create a feeling against the colored people and thereby ride into office. The races are dwelling in peace and harmony not only in this district, but throughout Kansas, and no such splen will ever array them against each other. The man and women among the white race in this district feel highly incensed over such low, mean, disreputable campaign bung and will repudiate it at the polls. They do not feel safe in roaring their children in a community where such a course, rough, creature was occupying a place on the judicial bench. They want man whose lofty ideas and polished manners are worthy, of emulation. The barred courthouse and his charles vulgar language were driven from Kansas over thirty years ago, and it means that the white and smell of one of them may be found its way back, and we should be all reasonable citizens to rally and resist in stamping the head of this viper. The man or woman who sows the seed of ill feeling among any people is more dangerous than the vampire who takes advantage of his prey while it sleeps. Mr. Rossiter shows right here that he could not be fair in dealing out justice, and if he would take advantage of a colored person, the white man of small means who might be thrown upon the mercies of a court where he presided would fare no better. The cause of this unmanly attack on Judge Flannelly, the bankers and the colored people is because the Judge permitted the county funds to be deposited in the different banks of the county, thereby placing it so that the people could have the benefits of same. Nothing wrong about a transaction of that kind, but it is a blessing to the entire community. Cleanliness and decency will live as long as time, while the frothings of the black guard are momentary and only live until the friends of right can procure a good stout club with which to silence him forever. The name of Lincoln, Lovejoy, Sumner, Garrison and Mrs. Stowe will live as long as the world whirls through ethereal space, the Tillmans, Vardamans and Dixons will be erased from memory within five hours after their damnable carcasses are covered beneath the soil. Hon Gerald, A. Otwell, candidate for county clerk, second term, is one of the most popular men in this section of the state, and he has made a good, careful painstaking official. He is a staunch Republican and a fine citizen and a good neighbor. He is one of those fair, upright, honorable men, and believes in giving every man a square deal. As county clerk he has given the people a good clean business administration and by so doing has justly earned the customary second term. HON. CHAS. D. ISE. candidate for county attorney, is one of the strongest lawyers in the state. He is a clean, upright, honorable gentleman and will do his duty without fear or favor. He is a believer in law enforcement regardless to whom it may displease, Mr. Lee will show, no favors. He graduated, from the State Normal at Emporia and also from the law department of Kansas University. He was elected to the office two years ago by one of the largest majorities ever given a man for an office in this county, and his fine record assures his election by a still greater majority. He is a man of strong personality and keen, intellect and has a knack of making and holding friends. He knows no man by creed, color or religion, but places moral worth and true manhood above all else. It was Mr. Ise who instituted a suit against the "Katy" railroad thereby compelling them to retain shops by Parsons, thus bringing thousands of dollars into the state that would have been spent in some other state. He also tested the inherent tax law in the supreme court and won another great financial victory for Kansas and her people. It is the big things that this young man has and is doing that makes him stand out bodily before all the people of the state, and as soon as he finishes serving Montgomery county in the office of county attorney, the people have as eye on him will promote him by electing him attorney general of Kansas. evilate, and juvenile judge, is an old Republican war hoax, and it would be silly so even dream that he will not be reelected. He is one of the best and most favorably known men in Montgomery county, if he is young in years but old in experience, and has given the county the best administration they ever had in that office. The offices of probate and juvenile judge is one of grave importance and 1974 G. FISHBACK A. M. H. D. Field Secretary Foreign Mission Board National Baptist Convention requires a man of high integrity and sound judgment to handle the many important matters transacted in such a court. Judge Oeborn has made good and the voters are going to act when and keep him for two years more. He is a friend of the colored people and all we met during our visit in the county are great admirers of the Judge. OFF FOR HIS OLD HOME Hon. John E. Lewis and Family Will Visit Jamica. Hon. John E. Lewis, wife and daughter will leave Oct. 20 for New York from where they will sail on the Royal Mail Steamer, "Diambe" for Morse Bay, Jamaca, West Indies Islands, where they will visit his sister, whom he has not seen for more than a quarter of a century. Mr. Lewis has resided in Kansas for many years, and is one of the best known and most popular men in the state. He has built up an enviable reputation as a business man and Christian gentleman. He has many good, warm personal friends in every section of the country who wish him a safe voyage and early return. Mr. Lewis is a useful man and has done as much if not more for the advancement and uplift of the race as any one person in the country. In the church, he has been a power and his influence in leading men and women into the path of Christian reevolution has extended and been felt throughout the state. Mr. Lewis is secretary of the Baptist State Convention, which just closed their annual meeting at Coffeyville last week, and despite the fact that he is off for a long journey, he was re-elected to the office by that body. The Baptist State Convention is one of the largest and most representative bodies of colored people in Kansas and Mr. Lewis has been a power in building it up to such a high place in the hearts of all the people regardless of creed, race or religion. Mr. Lewis, his wife and also his daughter, are among the state's most popular and highly accomplished women and they too will be missed in both church and social circles. Mr. Lewis was Grand Chancellor of the Knights of Pythias order for Kansas and jurisdiction for many years and made the order a power for good in this part of the country. The race and country can't well afford to lose a man like Mr. Lewis and while The Plain-dealer joins his many friends in wishing them joy and pleasure on the trip, we sincerely hope that they will not become so infatuated with that far-off land that they will forget to return. With the popular idea of two terms and out for his platform, Mr. K. M. Rogers, one of the county's best known philosophers is looking to be elected to the office of county superintendent of public instruction. He is a fine gentleman, well qualified and if honored with the confidence of the voters and taxpayers would serve them faithfully and well. He has advanced ideas on educational matters and would use every effort to raise the present high standard of our schools. He has taught in the rural schools and knows their wants and needs and would do much to elevate them. Mr. Rogers has a splendid record as man seen by the following: For twenty-one years a successful teacher in the schools of Kansas, four years in the Government schools, Int. Dept., fifteen years supervisor of schools employed from two to seventeen teachers and seven years as member of the teachers' admiring board, recommends him to your opulideration. Baptists Hold Great Meeting The Baptist State Convention was indeed one of the grandest and most profitable gatherings that ever assembled in Kansas, and Coffeyville did herself proud in the way of entertaining the delegates and visitors. It was a gathering of brilliant men and women from all sections of the state and the social and educational features were highly enjoyed and will bear good results. The Convention opened on 17 G at Sardis Baptist church, the Rev. P. D. Skinner, pastor in charge. The principal officers of the Convention are men of great ability which counts for the brilliant success of the gathering as a glance at the personnel of the officers will readily show. Rev. Bowren, president; Hon. John E. Lewis secretary; Rev. C. G. Fishback, corresponding secretary and Rev. Gov. treasurer. One of the grandeest things accomplished by the Convention was the little war of the two thousand dollar debt hanging over the Old Folks' Home at Lawrence. This is a move in the right direction and will meet the hearty propotion of all the people, and by so doing, this places the Baptist of Kansas one good, long stride ahead. When religious organizations take more to looking after the welfare of the poor and needy, they will accomplish more toward bringing men and women to Jesus than all else. We are delighted to see the Baptist of Kansas take the initiative in this matter and hope to see others follow suit. On Tuesday the Womens' Home and Foreign Mission convened, with Mrs. Emma Gaines, of Topeka, president; Mrs. D. A. Ellias, vice-president; Mrs. H. F. Frazier, corresponding secretary. This is an auxiliary to the State Convention and one of the strongest lady organizations in the West. Their sessions termed with interest from the sound of the gavel announcing the opening till the close! The papers etc., were bright, snappy and instructive. The lesson taught from the mee- sage of these noble women will be a world of good for the advancement and uplift of mankind, and our only regret is that the women of other organisations throughout the states were not present to feast from this great fountain of knowledge and wisdom. They raised a neat sum toward paying off the indebtedness of the Old Folks' Home and many other good things for the advancement of Christianity and education. Truly, they are a grand, noble body and deserve the co-operation and support of everybody irrespective of creed or religious affiliation. "Church a Civile and National Force," a paper by Mrs. C. G. Fitchback, of Topaka, was a literary gem, and showed the rare and careful preparation of a master mind. Last, but by no means the least, was the meeting of the Sunday School Convention and the B. Y. P. U. It was indeed inspiring to note the deep interest manifested by the young people, and these organisations are proving a great power in the fight for human uplift and advancement. They were enthusiastic in their efforts to assist in paying for the Old, Folks' Home and they raised a neat sum for that purpose. These bodies showed a remarkable growth. The reports were prepared in a neat, business-like manner, which speaks volumes for the ability of the officers who are making these bodies second to none of their kind in the country. One of the best reports ever presented before a like body was that of the Rev. C. G. Fishback, field secretary of the National Baptist Convention. He is one of the brainiest men of the race, a close, keen observer and splendid business man. After the adjournment of these bodies, Rev. Fishback departed for Texas, where he will attend the Baptist Convention of that state. He is doing a wonderful work throughout the country. J. T. Botkin, Pioneer Kassan Wants Your Vote for Secretary of State. The Topeka Plainlander presents to the voters of Kassan with a great deal of pride, the name of Host. J. T. Bot- kin, pioneer Kassan, staunch Republi- can and friend of humanity, who is asking your vote for secretary of state. He is now filling the place as assistant under Mr. Sealsona. There, is no man in all Kansas better equipped or more deserving than Mr. Botkin. He has born the burdens of the party for nearly half century in Kansas—always helping the other fellow and we think it no more than right to give him a whack at the crib. Mr. Botkin is a Republican of the Ala Lincoln school and comes from a long line of ancestry who assisted in rocking the cradle of liberty. In the early days down in historic Linn county, he along with Col. Ed. R. Smith and the late Joel Moody, Col James D. Snoody and many other grand men were foremost in the fight for right and the uplift of mankind. At this late date, we would prose ourselves ungrateful to turn our back upon such a man or set of men, and throughout Kansas the colored men and women are going to do everything in their power to make Mr. Botkin's majority the largest ever given a candidate for secretary of state. Mr. Botkin has as many if not more good, warm personal friends among the colored people than any man in the state, and they do not heatate in saying so. He has always been on the square with them, ready and willing to protest when their rights were placed in jeopardy. Tom Botkin is a man, and our only regret, is that the state of Kansas has too few of his kind for the good of the colored race. POLITICS IN FORT SCOTT Great Interest is Being Shown in the Fight for. County Attorney and Also for Sheriff. Hon. James Sheppard, son of Jake I. Sheppard, the noted attorney, and poor may's friend, is a candidate for county attorney and will no doubt be elected. Young Sheppard is the people's candidate and every man, woman and child in the county is shouting for his success. He is a fine young man of excellent habits and one of the keenest and best lawyers in the state. He graduated from the Ann Arbour school of law and admitted to the bar in 1911. His fine qualities and gentlemanly manner has won him warm friends from all parties and his election is assured. The next sheriff of Bourbon county is Sigel McKinle of Unkentown town ship, so distance the many voters man- and female that we meet, while in each county. He is a former and active grower. Personally, he is in the mood of the fine—a good follow, will meet and one in whom you can place impatient confidence. He stands for the right in all things and will make a fine individual who will perform every duty imposed upon him wisdom, keen or raring. His honesty, integrity, and uprightness cannot be questioned and we predict for him a signal victory, let us cheer election. He is a member of several lodges and is quite active and popular in all of them. In voting for Mr. W. R. Smith, the Columbus newspaper man for state printer, we feel that the people will make no mistake. This is one of the most important offices in the state, and great care should be exercised in selecting a man. In Mr. Smith we feel that the voters need, look no further. He is capable, well qualified and worthy of the honor. He is an experienced printer, and our long, personal acquaintance with him makes us feel safe in saying that we cannot say too much in the way of praise for him. Sixteen years ago when The Plaindealer was born, W. K. Smith printed the first issue. He is a gentleman, upright and honorable, and what Kansas needs to do is to elect him state printer. He's a Fine Man. With this issue we present to you a cut of Mr. G. A. Wieneke, candidate for the office of Marshall of the Court of Topeka. Mr. Wieneke always has been and is now friendly to the colored people. He is now working in the clothing store at 420 Kansas avenue. 1. He earnestly solicits your vote, and support, and if elected promises that no one will have cause to regret it. He earnestly solicits your vote, and support, and if elected promises that no one will have cause to regret it. Shelton and Leibenged, Two Five Follows Who are Sure of Election. Miami county has never had a better official in the register of deeds office than Mr. Archie E. Shelton. His action when you enter the office readily tells one that Mr. Shelton does not feel like that he owns the office, but is there to serve you. He is a staunch Republican and a good friend of the colored race. He should and will be given a second term. Mr. C. E. Leibongood, who has safely cared for the county's cash box for the past two years is asking to be re-elected, and not to grant his request would be base ingratitude. He has not only made a splendid official, but is a pleasant fellow to meet. He believes in giving every man a square deal. Re-elect this fine gentleman. DOWN IN WYANDOTTE COUNTY Dr. John W. Halnes, one of the leading physicians of the county and state is making the race for coroner on the independent ticket. He is a splendid gentleman and has the respect of all the people. His card bears this excellent description: "Reference—For seven years of decent citizenship, while not holding any office." This is the best reference any one can secure. He is in every way worthy and well qualified for the job.

He and His Firm Have Always Been Staunch Friends of the Colored Race, Olathe, Oct. 15.—The colerec people of this, Gov, Hodges home city, are, his steadfast friends, Governor Hodges'firm has always befriended the col- ored people. Many of them are today living in comfortable homes that they purchased on time and paid for in smal] pay- ments like rent, the lumber and building material having been sold to them by the Governor. At one time many years ago a colored boy came from Gar- nett, Kansas to Olathe and _se- cured employment with Gov. Hodges. His leg was crushed in a railroad accident. He was taken to Governor Hodges’ home and the best medical ser- viee and treatment was given him and he was given every at- tention that skill and kindness could furnish to save his life, but his injury was too severe and he died. Governor Hodges saw to it that his body was sent to his old home for burial. In Olathe is a skilled colored cement worker—a first class mechanic. When Gov. Hodges was elected one of the first men to receive an appointment was this mechanic, who got a job at one of the state insti- tutions at $100 per month to put in the cement work and held it until the work was com- pleted, and the work was as well done as any other mechanic could do it. 7 The colored people in this county will not forget the fair treatment and kindnesses done them by Governor Hodges, not only after he was elected as an official, but for twenty years before he ever’ thought of being a candidate for any office.— From tke Olathe Colored Citi- zane SPRINGFIELD. MISSOURI Rev, 'T, A. Harvey, pastor, mem- bers and the several auxilaries of the A. M. E. church, have just closed a successful year with a series of entertainments from Monday even- ing, Sept. 28 to Monday evyenire, Oct. 5, Thess entertainment, proved very successful and helpful and will enable Rev, Harvey to make a very commendable veport at the annual conference which convenes in Kansas City, The members of the C. P. church are getting together and doing nice- ly urder the leadership of Dr. B, W. Bosdner, On Monday evening a very detight- fut fanquet was held in honor of the new mivister, Rev.

The ladies of the city met at Lincoln school Tuesday after- noon to take up the work of “Mothera’ Club” which was or- ganized a year ago. Mrs. Will- iam Bruce, who is brilliant and eloquent in the work was elec- ted president and with the as- sistance of her efficient, officers and members we predict that much good will be accomplished through the club. Mr. and Mrs, J. Foster have recently returned from a lovely northern trip. En route they spent some time with their son, Capt. A. Foster, who had sus- tained a very painful accident, but is recovering nicely at this writing. The Campbell home on Wash- tington avenue on last Friday afternoon was a scene of a very royal affavi, the occasion being a reception given in honor of her sister, Mrs, Forte, of Seat- tle, Wash.. and the entertain- ing of the Womans’ Musical and Literary club and friends.

Would that the parents of the school children would take up more time in chastising their children instead of taking sides with them in their differences with the teachers.

E. church convened in this city Thursday, the Right Rev. Bishop Phillips, presiding and everything went along very smoothly and all the preachers were seemingly satisfied with appointments. Rev. Z. Z. Johnson who has been the pastor in this place for the past six years, was made presiding elder for this district and Rev. Rector, formerly of El Paso, Tex., was assigned to this charge. Many important changes were made by Bishop Phillips and we bid them all God's speed in their new fields. Mrs. O. T. Howard entertained as her guest, Madam Johnson of Prescott. At whist, Mme. Johnson and Mr. E. S. P. Dawson carried away the honors. Twenty-five guests were present and report a delightful evening spent with Mrs. Howard. On Tuesday evening Mrs. Sylvester Vaughn entertained Mr. and Mrs. Phillips at dinner. After dinner a delightful rag dance was enjoyed. Cooling refreshments were served after the hour of twelve and over twenty-six guests declared Mrs. Vaughn a charming hostess. Mr. A. C.

Only first-class meals are served at popular prices. Mr. and Mrs. George Caldwell have one of the most beautiful homes on East Jefferson street. Mrs. Caldwell may be seen any day sprinkling their lawn, and we want to say right here their lawn is the pride of the place and its a beauty too. Rev. Z. Z. Johnson, ex-pastor of the C. M. E. church is all smiles these days. We are indeed glad to see the Reverend in such a happy fram of mind, as the promotion from pastor to presiding elder was well deserved. Rev. Johnson has pastored this church for six years and he leaves without a spot or blemish on his character. May he live long and prosper. Rev. N. E. White filled the pulpit at the A. M. E. church in the absence of the pastor. Rev. White is a former Topekan and is a regular reader of The Plaindealer. He has purchased a nice home since coming here, made many improvements on the same and can be safely considered on the road to success. The success and prosperity of Phoenicians is due to their foresight, we believe. Having saved their money so as to be ready to greet opportunity when it came, several families have taken advantage of the urgent need for money for the whites in this vicinity and have bought their property at bargain prices. We shall always praise such shrewdness among our people. Plaindealer headquarters at 1026 E. Jefferson St. Order yours now. CHERRYVALE, KANSAS.

Sha Endorses Our Position That the Nation Pray for Relief From the Lynching Horrors. --- Topcha, Kas, Oct. 10, 1914. Mr. Nick Chiles. Sir I think your protest to President Wilson fine. It was just right; not too much nor too little. A person with an exact knowledge of circumstances, possessed with courage, fire, spirit and calm determination to go ahead can sometimes stir a sluggish populace to action. The time has not yet come for any war of any kind here—may never come, but we are far from a perfect nation, although the United States boasts of being perfect and also of being very Christian. (I suppose Christian means—good people.) When a nation glots over the sufferings of a human being burning at the stake—what can you call the people of such a nation? The colored people are doing the right thing to be be quiet, calm, working and studying and minding their own business. To just keep on even ever so slowly pushing forward is the best thing to do. It will win much after awhile. Many white people are very envious of the Afro-Americans. If you know it, never mind it, just keep plodding along. Do the right thing always, for often TRUTH and HONESTY are POWERFUL WEAPONS in case of need. Very respectfully, MRS. PETER CURLEY NEE WORRALL. ELECTRIC INHALERS — ORDER TODAY.
