Politics in Other Kansas Counties Brief Story About Some of the Men Who Want to Serve the Public. Because he believes in and will work for a passage of the following laws: To take the offices of state and county superintendents out of politics by providing for a non-partisan board who will select the superintendents from the recognized educators instead of from wire-working politicians. Voters, this is a belief of his experience. If you can endorse the above, vote for him (Adst) With this issue we present to you a cut of Mr. G. A. Wienke, candidate for the office of Marshall of the Court of Topeka. Mr. Wienke always has been and is now friendly to the colored people. He is now working in the clothing store at 420 Kansas avenue. He earnestly solids your vote and support, and if elected promises that no one will have cause to regret it. SALINE COUNTY POLITICS. Hon. C. W. Wilson, probate judge of Saline county, is a candidate for re- election, and if a strict performance of duty with regards for the welfare of those who have business in a probate court count for earnest consideration by the voters, Judge Wilson should remain in that important office for another term. Judge Wilson is a candidate on the Democratic ticket, and though Saline county is largely Republican, his record has caused voters of all parties towards him and the chances are good that his majority will be greater than two years ago. This shows that the people want honest and efficient men in such an important office as judge of the probate court, where the wishes of the dead are to be administered and where the rights of widows and orphans and the insane are to be probated. Judge Wilson has proven himself worthy of this confidence and when the polls are closed on November 3d honest men and women will have shown by their ballots that merit and efficiency will have triumphed over all other considerations and sanctioned the capable record of Judge Wilson and given him another term as probate judge. LEAVENWORTH COUNTY. To the Voters and Taxpayers: If elected to the office of County Attorney of Leavenworth County I hereby promise to vigorously and speedily prosecute to a judgment such suits as are necessary to determine the amount which those officers, whom the recent auditors report short, owe to the tax payers. I am not influenced by nor associated with any person who may be interested in delaying, hindering or defeating said suits. All lawsuits of every kind and nature whether civil or criminal, which it is the duty of the County Attorney to handle, will be prosecuted by me with as much vigor and efficiency as I am able to command. If elected I shall attend to the legal business of the County without the necessity of hiring other lawyers at additional expense to taxpayer. If elected I promise to complete the investigation of any County Office which the auditors failed to finish, so far as in my power I am able to do so. I have practiced law before the courts, and juries in cases of every kind for practically nine years; have also briefed, argued and won cases in the Supreme Court of the State of Kansas and am a graduate of one of the best law schools in the United States after three years study. If elected my motto will be HONESTY and EFFICIENCY in office and I shall constantly labor toward the end that the taxpayer's interest will be conserved and taxes reduced wherever possible. FLOYD E. HARPER, "The Lawyer with the Necessary Experience." BIG HEARTED IIM. Leavenworth's popular coroner needs no introduction to the voters. He is a fine fellow and splendid official and he certainly is "Some Friend to the Poor Man." Mr. James C.

BROWN, Currier. Nebraskan Sees New Light and Appeals to His Brethren to Awake. Lincoln, Neb., Oct 20.—Every voter should see to it that he is duly and properly registered. For the past forty years or more, we have been too conservative in voting for a principle, and have badly and most shamefully neglected our personal interests and the welfare of our people and the betterment of conditions in the communities in which we live. But in these latter days it is indispensably necessary that we should look after our interests, and to do what we should, become more liberal in voting for good men regardless of their party affiliations. And after they have been elected should they fail to represent all the people and give patronage to all classes regardless of their condition or servitude or for any other pretext, and should they again appear before the people for re-election, we should cast the black ball against them and to be proficient to accomplish this end, it behoves us to be thoroughly organized, not locally, but all over the state and when these conditions arise to affect our interest and our welfare and prosperity, we are prepared to meet the emergency and to cast our votes for and against them. Two years ago of the seven thousand colored votes which were cast in the presidential election, our governor, John H. Morehead received five thousand of them as against ex-Governor Aldrich who was then up for re-election. He had proven unworthy to us and we had determined to cast a solid vote for his defeat, and defeat it was, and elected John H. Morehead and he has proved worthy of the trust we imposed in him, because he has been a governor for the people, by the people and of the people. He has protected the weak against the strong, the poor against the rich and has suffered no class legislation to be heaped upon the people. The state of Nebraska has never elected a son as her chief magistrate that has endeared the hearts of the people more than Governor Morhead, because he has looked after the interest, the welfare and the prosperity of all the people, and has heard their applications and around his exalted altar their rights have been guarded and protected regardless of their previous condition of servitude. With this record Gov. John II. Morehead has come again before you for re-electoin and I advise every voter to cast his vote for him. PAUL L. MOORE. 2148 S. Eighth Street. The above article is as true as gospel, and Negroes throughout the nation should adhere to such timely advice. Here in our own grand and glorious Kansas we have Governor George H. Hodgen, who has made the fairest and best governor the state has ever had. He has given the black people more recognition than any other executive, and if the colored people pass him up under such circumstances, they might as well consider their fight for a square deal forever lost.

F. 23 Duane Street, New Youn, The editor of The Plaindealer wishes to say that there are two candidates running for representative from the South District in Shawnee county. Mr. Russell, a colored man on the Democratic ticket, and Mr. Stone, a white man on the Republican ticket. Mr. Stone has served in the legislature from that district several terms and the colored people have gone to him several times and asked him to assist them in killing Jim Crow laws. He has always responded to their call by saying that he was opposed to any segregation laws and worked along that line every since he has been a law maker. Where two men stand for the same principle—a square deal and equality before the law the question of creed, color or religion should not enter the fight, but the man who is most competent and best fitted should be elected. We note with deep regret, the death of Judge G. N. Perkins, better known as the old "African Lion." He was the editor and owner of the Oklahoma Guide, published at Oklahoma City. He was the pioneer Negro newspaper man of Oklahoma, a bold and fearless defender of the rights of his people and was always in front of every move that had for its object the defeat of segregation and Jim Crow. Judge Perkins filled many positions of honor and trust and was elected judge by the voters of his city. The race has lost a bold defender and the newspaper fraternity a gallant friend and brother. Miss Ridley, his niece, will continue the publication of The Guide. We wish her unbounded success. The brightest star among stage folk has fallen. Aida Overton Walker, best actress of her race, passed away last week in New York after an illness of only five days duration. Aida Overton Walker has many winn personal friends in Topeka who deeply regret her untimely demise. Next week we will present a history of her brilliant stage career, which appeared in one of America's leading theatrical papers. THE EDITOR'S NOTES Mrs. Florence Peaches, who travels for an insurance company was in Osage City one day last week. Mrs. U. F. Scales, of Kansas City, Kansas has moved to 430 Minnesota avenue, where she is conducting a cafe and restaurant. --- Mrs. Blackwell, our correspondent and agent at Coffeyville is on the sick list. She was operated on by Dr. Whittaker and Dr. Daria, of that city. These two young men are becoming leading surgeons of that section of the state. --- While in Fort Scott a few days ago we had the pleasure of dining with our friend and fellow townman, Mr. Elisha Scott, one of the state's best political "spell binders." The dinner was served at the Jones Cafe and we must say that they know how to cook and serve good meals and if you eat there once you are bound to go back. --- Mr. and Mrs. J. Q. McReynolds, of Onage City have purchased seventeen acres of land right on the edge of the city. They are among the most prosperous citizens in Onage. They have lots of chickens, hogs, good milch cows and fine gardens. We had dinner at their home last week and must confess that Mrs. McReynolds is one of the finest cooks we have found anywhere and you can always find plenty to eat in their home; --- We had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Jim McQuaid, of Fairberry, Nebra, who was en route to Chicago to visit relatives and friends. He had been paying his son a visit who is attending college at N. Marya, Mr. McQuaid is one of the oldest and most popular engineers in the service of the Rock Island, having been in the service over twenty-three years. He is a nice dignified gentlemanly fellow and a pleasing conversationalist. We hope to meet him again in our rounds. Mr.'Ed Hill and wife of Kansas City, Kan., have returned from a few weeks' visit with relatives and friends in Virginia and Washington, D. C. He has his uncle at Culpepper is one of the most progressive farmers in the Old Dominion state. He drank from the old spring whose stream poured from the mountain stream. He had plenty of everything good to eat. The mountains, etc., reminiscent hills by the Ouaganda. He also veiled the old mill where the tail is still in existence. Mr. Hill is an employee of the Santa Fe Fleet from Kansas City to Tulsa, Oka. He was for years with the Illinois Central and well experienced in railroad business. If he had the same opportunity that is given white men, he would have been a conductor years ago. PHOENIX, ARIZONA. (By A. R. SMITH. Phoenix, Arisa, Oct. 21.—Every one is boosting the Y. M. C. A. movement that has been started in this city. Extensive plans have been laid for the building and we are only waiting for those liberal donations that come from married men far and near, to bring the building to completion. Anyone desiring to make a donation to a worthy cause like this may send same to Mr. A. C. Council, 1205 East Jefferson St., Phoenix, Arizona and you will receive proper credit for same. Mr. J. D. Moos is becoming quite popular. He was seen out driving last Sunday with one of our most charming young widows. Mr. and Mrs. L. L. Stewart are completing the purchase of a handsome residence on the North side. The Stewarta are strong supporters of The Topeka Plaindealer and may be seen any day reading a copy. Mrs. R. S. Gross, president of the Phoenix Forum and head of the Y. M. C. A. movement here, suffered a severe fracture of her right arm the other day.

Something About the Member from This District. Anthony Has Earned Position of Influence at Washington. The purpose of this statement, to the men and women voters of the First District is to set forth something about the record of the present Congressman from this District, so that the people may know part of the things that he has stood for and against, as their representative. In recent seasons of Congress, sound judgment and common sense are most needed in Congress. This brief sketch of a portion of the political life and qualifications of Mr. Anthony differs from the usual political biography because it is confined to the facts that a voter should have before he can intelligently select his One of Mr. Anthony's pronounced characteristics is his frankness. That is no portion of his public record that he would conceal; he himself de alires that it be an open book. He has never been known, to dodge or equivocate on any public question; he has fixed opinions and is not afraid to stand up for them in the open. This statement will tell his constituente frankly some of the measures he supported and just as frankly some of those he opposed. One thing noticeable in Mr. Anthony's work at Washington and of which he is proud is his record of actual service to the people he represents. No request is allowed to go THE NEW YORK TIMES M. DANIEL B. ANTHONY, JR. Republican Candidate for Congress, First District of Kansas, compiling the Counties of Acklen, Broo wn, Donlihan, Jackson, Jefferson, Nennah, Leavenworth, Shawnee. Republican Candidate for Congress, First District of Kansas, comprising the County of Atchison, Brow wn, Donphan, Jackson, Jefferson, Namah, Leavenworth, Shawnee, unnoticed and no letter addressed to him knowingly remains unanswered. Because many large government institutions are located in his District and from the further fact that the First District probably has a greater percentage of veteran soldiers than any other District in the United States a tremendous labor is in consequence devolved upon Mr. Anthony in looking after the wants of these veterans and their widows. In every instance, where possible, this has cheerfully been done, every county in his district having soldiers and their widows who can testify to assistance or relief secured through Mr. Anthony's efforts in presenting meritorious cases to the Pension Bureau and to Congress. measures he has favored during his service in the National House of Representatives. Has Been Fair to Labor. Being a large employer of labor he understands the problem of the mea who work, and his votes have always been cast in behalf of the American wage-earner. Anthony voted in Congress for the Employers' Liability Act and the Workmen's Compensation Bill; for requiring materials to be used in the construction of the Panama Canal to be purchased in the United States; for limiting the hour of service for men working on rail roads; for the various safety applause laws in relations to tailroads; for the government eight-hour laws: If I were asked to state 'another characteristic of our Congressman I would say that he is known for being shrt on words and lodg' on performance. There is said to be no record in the District of his ever having failed to keep a promise if made; in other words, he aims to keep faith with his constituents It is proverbial that the influence of a new member of Congress at Washington does not amount to much. Those who know say that Mr. Anthony, during the few terms he has served, has formed an acquaintance among his colleagues of both the House and the Senate, and in the various Departments of the Government, through which he has attained an influence in Washington which is unquestionably of great value to the people of his district. One of the advantages enjoyed by our Congressman is due to his close relations with the people of the First District. He probably knows personally more farmers, more workingmen, more wageearners and more business men than any other man in his district, and he is just as courteous and approachable to the man who earns his daily bread by the sweat of his brow as he is to the biggest banker or merchant in the state. Anthony's close attention to all matters presented to him by his constituents recommends him as one of our most faithful public servants with the interests of the people always uppermost in his mind. Mr. Anthony is himself a successful business man, being actively connected with large business interests both of a commercial and of an agricultural character and by reason of his practical business efficiency he will be of the utmost value to the country at large just at this time when MEMBER OF CONGRESS legislation that Congressman Favored and What He has About the Member from Anthony Has Earned once at Washington. This brief sketch of a portion of the political life and qualifications of Mr. Anthony differs from the usual political biography because it is confined to the facts that a voter should have knowledge of his intelligence-select his representative in any legislative office. It is the public life of a man that counts with the people these days when every citizen is taking an interest in the public's business; it is the public record that counts today when our people are demanding that their representatives really represent them and not a political boss or a private interest. Mr. Anthony's industry, courage, and high integrity are known to his friends and admitted by his opponents. He is proud of every position he has taken on the public questions which have come before Congress during his service and it is with pleasure that I call to the attention of the people of the First District some of the most important C measures he has favored during his service in the National House of Representatives. Has Eisen Fair to Labor. Being a large employer of labor he understands the problem of the mea who work, and his votes have always been cast in behalf of the American wage-earner. Anthony voted in Congress for the Employers' Liability Act and the Workmen's Compensation Bill; for requiring materials to be used in the construction of the Panama Canal to be purchased in the United States; for limiting the hours of service for men working on rail roads; for the various safety appliance laws in relations to railroads; for the government eight-hour laws; for the laws creating the Bureau of Mines; the Children's Bureau, the Department of Labor; for the child labo. law for the District of Columbia; for the eight-hour law for women in the District of Columbia, and others of a similar character. He has favored and voted for legislation limiting the power of the Federal courts to punish for contempt without trial by jury unless the contempt was committed in the presence of the court. Always the Veteran Soldiers' Friend Anthony has ever been an active friend of the soldier. He voted for all recent pension legislation having for its object more liberal allowance to the veteran soldiers and their widows of the Civil and Spanish and Indian wars; for the law increasing the pension of widows; for the Indian veterans pension law. His interest in the old soldiers and their widows and dependents has not decreased as their ranks have thinned. Mr. Anthony's vigorous efforts to improve the condition and the material welfare of the members of the Soldiers Home have already borne good fruit. He has always favored every provision of law giving the soldier a preference in government employment and has protested against its violation. Equal Rights for Women. During his entire public life Mr. Anthony has advocated the political equality of women. His newspaper advocated equal suffrage in Kansas for forty years until the franchise was conferred upon Kansas women. Direct Election of Senators. He voted for the passage of the resolution submitting to the people an amendment to the constitution provid- ing for the election of United States Feminists by the direct vote of the people. The Income Tax Amendment. He voted for the resolution sub- mitting the income tax amendment to the people. A Consistent Advocate of Reform Measures. During his service in Congress Mr. Anthony has uniformly voted for all reform measures regulating trusts and combines. He favored the law enlarging the powers of the Interstate Commerce Commission, giving it among other powers the right to ascertain and fix reasonable rates, to suspend increased rates until their reasonableness could be determined, etc., the right to divest railroads of control or ownership of competing rail or water lines. He voted for the physical valuation of railway, telephone and telegraph lines, and for many other acts tending to control trusts and prevent monopoly, including the act prohibiting corporations from making campaign contributions. He also favored all the laws requiring publicity of campaign contributions both before and after elections. Public Health and Public Morals He has supported all amendments offered during his term of service for the strengthening of the meat inspection law and the pure food laws. He voted for the white slave law prohibiting the transportation between states of women for immoral purposes and voted for the law prohibiting the importation of opium into this country for other than medicinal purposes. He voted for what is known as the Webb-Kenyon bill prohibiting the shipment in interstate commerce of liquor intended for sale in states which have prohibitory laws. He voted for this law because he believes that a state should be unheld by the federal government in the exercise of its police power. Alaska and Panama. Mr. Anthony voted for the measure appropriating $35,000,000 for the building of the railroad in Alaska by the government to aid in the development of the natural resources of that country. Mr. Anthony has taken a deep personal interest in matters affecting the Panama Canal and unhesitatingly approved the prompt and statemanlike steps taken by President Roggevelt in acquiring the territory through which the Canal was to be constructed, and Mr. Anthony is consequently opposed to the proposition of the present national administration to pay $25,000,000 of blackmall money or to apologize to any nation for what we have done in the acquisition or the construction of the Panama Canal. Was Against Toll's Fence? Anthony voted against the bill which provided for the repeal of the law giving American ships in the coastwise trade the right to pass through the Coastal without a payment of tolls. He took the position that such a position was a cowardly and un-American surrender to Great Britain and to the transcontinental railroads. --- Mr. Anthony has been a consistent advocate of the benefits of a protective tariff. He is thoroughly convinced that a free trade policy means industrial ruin to this country and he believes that the American workingmen should be protected from the cheaper competitive labor of the rest of the world. He believes "that this nation cannot preserver if it gives its work and its wages to foreign labor" His Position in the House. We are proud of the standing which Mr. Anthony has achieved at Washington and believe that Speaker Champ Clark told the truth when he once said, "Wisdom dictates that men who have proved that they are of service should be kept in Congress and the value of their services increases in exact proportion to the length of their service." As you know complaint has been made of the undue influence exercised by members of Congress from the eastern states both in the House and in the Senate. The answer is plain. The east keeps its members continuously in the House and in the Senate and in this way they have very naturally risen to positions of power and influence in both bodies. This power and influence will come to the west if it will but learn the lesson of experience and keep its active, energetic members in Congress. Mr. Anthony has proven an able and efficient representative of our people at Washington and we ask the men and women of the First district, regardless of party affiliation, to remember him on November 3 and to make a cross opposite his name on the ballot.

On the Rayburn Bill to regulate issues of stocks and hands of interstate corpora- Note - In view of misrepresentations in reward to votes of members of Congress which are sometimes made it is perhaps safe to state that frequent it happens the vote that frequent it happens taken on the same question. For instance, a member may vote or fail to vote for a bill as it passes the House and then vote for a bill as it passes the Senate and then vote with objectionable features removed, or vice versa. Also a member may have voted against a bill containing undesirable amendments on one day, although he may have voted against a bill containing other day when perfected, and on its final passage. Because of this a member's position in hesitation is often invoked by members of Congress or members of Congress who have heavy departmental duties and a large amount of office work to frequently pair their votes with frequent it happens stead of being a mere "challarger" on the floor of the House, to the neglect of their other duties. A Secret-keeper. One of the finest secret keepers on record was an Irishman, a prisoner of '98, who was captured with a comrade. He told the officer in command that he could make very important disclosures, but that he dared not do so as long as the other man lived, since his life would not be worth a day's purchase if that other managed to escape. The officer presently cleared that difficulty out of the way; whereupon the prisoner said: "Now shoot me as soon as you please; I knew he'd peach." Ambition. To one hard-working man of this busy generation success means time to retire to a quiet, book-lined room overlooking an old-fashioned garden, and read Dickens leisurely through again from Pickwick to Drood. Falling in that ambition, he would like to spend the opening of his life raking leaves in the peace and beauty of Branch Brook park with the other old men threw-employed. The commissioners will please consider this an application—Newark News. The Universal Language. The one universal language is not Epamerto, but music. Everywhere the same musical score is played. The masters of different countries may have characteristic national qualities, but music-lovers everywhere find delight in a composition, it matters not from what land or clime the composer hails. Whether played in Germany or italy or France or at home, your favorite musical sounds the same. Leslie's Weekly.
