A Parting Glance at Good Worthy Candidates Who Will Appreciate Your Support. SHDOWICK COUNTY CANDIDATES. The Republican county central committee of Bedgwick county is moving heaven and earth to elect its ticket. We called on Mr. W. H. Stanley, son of the late Governor Stanley of Kansas, who was the best governor the state ever had and a great friend of the colored people. Now his son is candidate for county attorney and it is the duty of the people to give him an overwhelming majority. Young Stanley is a fearless, courageous young man and one of the beat in the state, and the party can make no mistake in electing him to this office. Mr. E. M. Bridgman, candidate for county assessor, is also making a strong effort to lead his ticket. He is very popular, and we expect his majority to double his opponent's vote. R. N. Dorr, for register of deeds, is making a great race and his friends say he will have an enormous majority. I. F. Surver, present sheriff, who is very popular, is a candidate for re-election and his friends may he be adding strength to the ticket and that his majority will run along with the head of state tickets in that county. They are doing all possible to make his majority so large that there will be no thought of a count. Mr. D. K. Dunne, candidate for state senator, is a prominent business man and will be elected by a large majority. Mr. Richard H. Bird, candidate for judge of the district, court, practically has no opposition. Mr. Jack Hlay, the popular chief of police of Wichita, is the Democratic nominee for sheriff and his friends may he will be elected and that he will make a good officer, doing his duty honestly and faithfully. Miss Nina Woodford, Republican candidate for treasurer of Labette county, is capable and efficient and her majority will be enormous. Everybody is going to vote for her. CONGRESSIONAL CANDIDATES. These Are the Candidates for Congress Whom the Republicans Will No Required to Elect Next Tuesday. They Are All Good Men and Have Blood the Treat of Good Citizenship. Are Worthy, and Well Qualified to Go to Washington and Represent the Great State of Kansas. The colored voters of the Sixth district are expected to bend all their efforts and energies on election day to elect the Hon. Otis L. Benton for congressman for that district. He is a man well qualified and worthy of the position he seeks, and Hughes will need him. Clyde Miller is the candidate for congressman from the Fourth district and it is the duty of the voters, especially the colored ones, to see to it that he is elected by giving him their undivided support. Mr Miller is a staunch friend of the colored people and his services will be invaluable in congress, for he will not only further the interests of his district but of the entire nation. There is no doubt of his election. Hon Jon Anthony, the heir and leader of his district, is a candidate for reelection as congressman from the First district and there is no doubt as to his election, but we want to make his majority so large that when he enters the nominal race all opponents will vanish. Hon Drew C. Little, candidate for congressman from the second district, says his friends are calculating his majority to be something like down. He claims that the Republican majority will be solid for him in the district, and there is no reason why his majority should not be larger. Mr Little is a man of great experience, a lawyer of great ability and a diplomat, having once served at Calipso, Egypt, as representative of this government. He is an ardent supporter of the principles of the Republican party and has a strong following among the working class of people. If elected to congress he promises to legislate in their interest. HON. WAKINY CARE FOR DISTRICT JUDGE OF LAWFIELD COUNTY Hon Nelson Case of Oswego is candidate for judge of that district and his friends say he will be elected by an overwhelming majority, as he is being supported by all parties. They say that they need a change and are going to vote for Case to a man. The people who want fair play in the courts of that district say that change must come and they are going to see to it by their votes on Tuesday. MR. J. G. B. PINNEY FOR COUNTY COMMISSIONER Mr. J. G. B. Planey, the Democratic nominee for county commissioner from the south district, says his friends are moving heaven and earth to elect him, for he is the people's candidate and is making great effort to land the coveted plum. HUGH LARIMER FOR SHERIFF. Hugh Farlmer, candidate for aberlin on the Republican ticket, is a young man who, his friends say, deserves the election by an overwhelming majority, from the fact that he has been persecuted by some of his enemies whose sole purpose was to defeat him for the office. He is a Shawnee county boy, a staunch Republican, and merits the support of everybody. H. W. MCAFFE: CANDIDATE FOR Mr. H. W. McAfee, the Republican candidate for county commissioner from the south district of Rhawnes county, says that he will be elected by a large majority and that his friends are making a great effort to carry out that prediction. FOR CONGRESSMAN Hon Joseph Taggart, who is the present congressman from the Second district on the Democratic ticket, saves he is entitled to re-election and that he has done his whole duty by everybody irrespective of color or previous condition. He says there has never been a measure come before the house in favor of the working man that he has not voted for, and also for the interests of the farmers and old soldiers. H. I. FRANCIS FOR COUNTY SUPT. OF BUTLER COUNTY Supt. H. I. Francis, candidate for re-election, works at the job all the time. Twenty-five years experience makes him the most qualified candidate for the office. A vote for him is a vote in the right direction and a vote for the right man. WICHITA. Below is what two St Louis papers have to say about the Rev. W. Sampson Brooks, who was for five years pastor of St. Paul A. M. E. church at St. Louis, Mo., and has now been assigned to St. Luke A. M. E. church at Wichita, Kan. This is one of the finest church buildings in the state and has a membership which is composed of some of the best people of the state. We were at Wichita last Monday and Rev. Brooks had arrived on Sunday and preached his initial sermon. The people are related over the appointment of Dr. Brooks and like him from the very beginning, and it looks as though he will take Wichita and the Southwest by storm. He is needed very much there and the people, irrespective of denomination, are beginning to brace up, as he is strictly a race man and believes in raw enterprise and he will be found adding and assisting the best he knows how. Rev. Brooks is an upright Christian gentleman who believes it his duty to make it pleasant for everybody and make them welcome in his church. He believes in the uplift of the human being, especially those who have fallen. We predict great things for him and for Wichita and her citizens. The white citizens of that city can well be proud of this appointment, as it will help them as well as the colored people, for it is necessary that all citizens have good ministers who will labor for the city and community at large: From the Fraternal Clarion: Dr W. Sampson Brooks, who has so acceptably filled the pulpit of St. Paul A. M. K. church for the past five years, left the city Friday for his new field of labor in Wichita, Kansas. In the departure of Dr. Brooks not only St. Paul but St. Louis loses a great man from many showpoints. St. Paul has always had well equipped pastors, but it will take an exceptional man to follow Dr. W. Sampson Brooks, who by his Christian life, hearty handshake and pleasing smile and his congenial life, has won not only friends among the church and ministers, but among all classes of citizens. As a minister Dr Brooks has few equals in any denomination. As a pulpit mentor his extensive travels and broad expult one makes him the master of his professions, his sermon at all times profitable and instructive the trustees and officers know of his saving and worth to St. Paul. A debt of over $100,000 mills when he arrived the years ago, but with his well formed plans and the confidence of his congregation, he wiped out the long standing debt in less than 18 months and burned the mortgage in the presence of an overwhelming audience, a most unrighteous achievement which could only have been accomplished by a W. Sampson Brooks, Dr. Brooks has accepted the pastorate of the largest A. M. P. church in Wichita, which is brand new and perhaps overwhelmingly in debt and needs his great service to relieve it of some of its burdens. We wish for him and his faithful companion a hearty reception and that he may live long to do much good for the Master and his people in the many avenues of life. From the Baptist Sentinel: Dr W. Hampson Brooks has served his administration as pastor of St Paul A. M. M. church and in evidence to the request of the bishop of this epacopal disease, the great preacher gives up St. Paul and is ready to answer the call of duty. His new field of labor will be in Wichita, Kan. That city and state should likewise regard it as a singular distinction to have a man of Dr. Brooks' type join them. The effective work he has done for his church and the race in St Louis will ever live in the minds of an host of citizens who love and respect him. Mr. Charles Morris, proprietor of the Makin' Eye Drug Store, and his pharmacist, Mr. James Brown, are still at the TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING NOV. 3, 1916 old stand doing a good business. Attorneys Fred Heim and Freeman Martin have one of the closest law offices in the state of Kansas, in the Masonic building on North Main street, at Wichita, and are doing a profitable business. WHITE HOUSE CAFE. It is a source of pleasure when hungry and in Wichita, Kap., to visit the White House Cafe, which is conducted by Mrs. H. H. Todd. She has no equal as a caterress and takes the blue ribbon when it comes to serving first class meals, lunches and banquets; in fact, she has a first class place of business and serves good, wholesome food and the delicacies of the market at reasonable prices. Mrs Todd is one of Wichita's leading women and conducts a neat, modern, up to date place that is fine enough for the president to patronize, and she is feeding the people. When hungry call at 601 N. Main street, and if you do not see the proprietress call for her, as she will probably be in the kitchen preparing the good things to be brought in by the waitresses. She is a pleasant, generous, Christian lady who has made her name famous in Kannas history. (Ity Theo Baughman.) The activity along all lines at Clearview, Okla., is something astonishing and the hum of the latchet can be heard from all directions. There are a half dozen new buildings in course of construction, but the enterprise that appealed to us was the Black Cow Oil, Gas and Mining Co., which has recently been organized and chartered under the laws of Oklahoma. This concern has a capital stock of $70,000 and controls 2000 acres of oil leases in various parts of the oil fields of that state. The solidity of this company is above criticism, as the incorporators are among the wealthiest and most representative men we have. They have compiled with all the laws of the state and are offering the public a bona fide proposition, and we hope that the race throughout the country will write the company for information. The day has come when the colored man must branch out in other business enterprises besides barber shops, restaurants, etc. If the white man is getting immensely rich in the oil business, there is no reason why our folks should not become identified in the oil world. An advertisement of the company appears elsewhere and the race should take the stock offered by the Black Cow Oil, Gas and Mining Co. One of the leading factors in this company is Hon. J. H. Thompson, who is one of the best posted men on the oil lands in Oklahoma. He has made a close study of the oil business, and having his services and experience means much for the company. The shares are being sold at $1 each, fully paid up on an non-accessible and every one of them should be bought by our race. Mr. Thompson has been a great benefactor in helping the race, and his being connected with this company is an assurance that every detail of the company will be faithfully carried out. The script is always pleased to make mention of such commendable enterprises and we wish for the Black Cow Oil, Gas and Mining Co. all the success that such a worthy enterprise is entitled to, as it is strictly a colored corporation and expects to succeed strictly on business methods. 0174W4, K41.

The daily papers and most weeklies among the white papers have increased their advertising rates and in some cases the subscription price, but we are not permitted to do this and therefore have to resort to other methods.

A new member was added to all the place of our deceased club member, Mrs. Alma H. Rainwater. The mem- bership now is ten. Revolutions *Remorseless time, force spirit of the scully and glass, what power can stop thy mad career?* "But Time, the tomb builder, knows no sleep nor weariness, and night has no chain to bind his rushing piouss" In the midst of life there is death. Whereens, God has said in His Holy Writ, "It is appointed unto man once to die, but after this, the judgment." To day man puts forth the tender leaves of hope; tomorrow he is cut down. Much has been the lot of our beloved friend and co-worker, Mrs. Alma E. Rainyater, who fell asleep in death Saturday, September 30, 1910. She has gone to her reward and we hope and trust she is now resting under the shade tree of eternal happiness, where the wicked sense from troubling and the worry are at rest. Whereas, We, the ladies of the Horton Art and Heading Circle, of which she was a favorite member, express our hope that so great a loss to us all may be overruled by Him who death all things will; and. Whereas, The sudden removal of such a life from among our midst leaves a vacancy and a shadow that will be deeply realized by all the members and friends of this Circle, and will prove a serious loss to the community and the public. Resolved That we how in humble submission to His will, and remember with joy that "Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal" Be it further. Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be spread upon the records of this Circle and a copy be given to the bereaved family. MRS P C K. BRADLEY, Reporter WINFIELD, KAY. II.

The rooms were well filled and everyone enjoined Dr. Wrenn's talk, at the conclusion of which he was asked a number of questions concerning his state, Missisppl, and the clearness and fulness with which he answered them gave his hearers much light on conditions there and also on the effect of the wholesale migration of colored people from the south into the manufacturing sections of the country, where they are supplanting the foreigners who have returned to Europe on account of the war Miss Skinner J. Dyals, missionary of the National Baptist Convention, who has been in the city several days in the interest of her work, is a very pleasing little lady, cultured, refined, and of a commanding personality, possessed of a ready flow of language—in fact, she is admirably fitted for the work in which she is engaged.

Miss Dyals saw that the European war has made untold hardships upon missionaries and that great work must be done in this country to alleviate matters as they now stand. Miss Dyals is well worthy of the support for which she asks. · CONCERT Thursday, November 8, at 8 P. M., at the Calvary Presbyterian Church, Thirteenth and Quincy Street Program. Prof. M. W.

Tuesday evening from 5 to 8 10 the handsome home of Mr. and Mrs. H. Nelson, 1037 Woodward, was filled with a romping, rollicking mass of happy children ranging in age from 5 to 12 years. The occasion was a Halloween masque party given by Master Deen and little Miss Lorine Nelson. The entire house was given over to the "kiddles," who did not fall to enjoy themselves in the high est. The decorations were beautiful, artistic and in keeping with the occasion Mirth, music and song told every passerby that happy boys and girls were in command, and that unrestrained joy would have full away. Mr. and Mrs. Nelson were assisted in caring for their five-and-seventy visitors by Meadames A. King, Ruth Reeves, Naomi Gilbert and Morris. Mrs. Willa Smith sang several beautiful selections, with Mrs. Gilbert at the piano, and the little folks were captivated with her rich, clear, sweet voice. A Plaindealer scribe who had been delighted quite as much as the children told them a story, "Brother Hill and I in a Haunted House," which was quite amusing. Cream, cake, candles, etc., were served in abundance, and at the appointed hour all departed for their several homes to dream of the joys of a happy evening with their little friends, Dean and Lorine.
