OPEN LETTER TO THE GOVERNOR OF OKLA.
Vlan, Okla, Feb. 18, 1918.
Gov. Williams, Oklahoma City, Okla
homa!
Dear Sir—Your honor, being some what aggrieved over the condition of my race, not only here in the state of Oklahoma, but throughout the Southern states, if all reports are true, which we believe they are, for we have them under a sworn oath that the poor, helpless Negroes in some localities in those Southern states are yet held in bondage by the white man. This peonage, slavery and a few other things which are so detrimental to the Negro race is what they are migrating to the North for protection, and yet we sincerely boast about our civilized and Christianized country and a world wide democracy. Your honor, we are appealing to you because we believe that you believe in giving justice to every man regardless of race, color or previous condition of servitude. It is not our fault that we note in the United States of America and I am not going to ask the question. How came us here? But we are here in the great state of Oklahoma and we have proven to be lawabiding citizens. We pay our taxes and work the public roads as your law requires, and never murmur a complaint. We rally to both state and national calls like men. We have sons now in the training camps. No doubt they will soon cross the ocean to fight and die for this country. What more can anyone do than lay down his life for his friends? Yet we are denied the right to vote our own free sentiments. Your honor, is that freedom? No! And God is not pleased with it either. Yes, that God given right which was handed down to us through the great, immortal Abraham Lincoln. We have been robbed of it here in the great state of Oklahoma. We don't blame you for this ill treatment, but we take this method of calling your attention to this wrongdoing, because you are the executive head of our great state and one word from you would have more effect upon the lawmakers of this state than all I could do or say.
Coming down now to the vital point, we believe the registration law is all right, if it only applied to all alike; but it does not. As a usual thing the registrar is a man with a heart as black as midnight, and is so biased and prejudiced against the Negro that he will not let the Negro register at all, so it is useless to try. Not one Negro in this precinct registered or voted in the last presidential election. We tried to register and then we tried to vote, but on account of our skin being dark we failed. Now, your honor, we are appealing to you to devise plans and give us your assistance in blotting out this unassidable sin which is being perpetrated upon the Negro race here in our great state of Oklahoma. The Negro is your friend. He gave proof of that in the late civil war. He stayed at home, worked and raised something to eat for your families while you were fighting to retain him in slavery. These are facts; so, why not let him go to the polls and vote his own free sentiments, as God intended for him to do? The Negro is loyal to this country in every respect. The Negro has also taken an active part in every war that has amounted to anything, and will help win victory for the stars and stripes, though this very same government that we have fought, bled and died for has left us unprotected. Now, I take pleasure in saying that any country or government that will not protect its protector and defend its defender is a disgrace and a shame to civilization.
Now, Mr Williams, from the speech that you delivered last September in the great National Baptist Convention, which convened in the city of Muskogee, Okla., I am led to believe that you believe in the uplifting of the fallen races of humanity, and as you, being a great leader here in the state of Oklahoma, might advise your people of their wrongdoing and point out to them the right way that might be pleasing in the sight of God. So wash your hands and say, let the Negro vote, for I find no fault in him.

He stands in the front rank of the profession and his skill is admired by people of both races. As head of Douglass Hospital, Dr. Thompson has built it up to the place where it is recognized as one of the foremost institutions of its kind in the country.

Editor's Notes.
We are proud to note the fact that Mr. Robert D. Garver, former county attorney, has been appointed judge of the first division of the district court of Shawnee county, to succeed the late Judge Dana. Mr. Garver is a young man full of energy and well versed in law. He has already had experience an judge of the Court of Topoka, which qualified him to begin at once to dispense justice in a higher court with ease and pleasure. He is the son of Judge Thomas F. Garver, who is one of Kansas foremost lawyers and was a judge of the Superior Court of Kansas which was created to assist the Supreme Court in its work. Mr. Garver is a married man, well educated, a gentleman and scholar and an able jurist, and Shawnee county will have no cause to regret the action of Gov. Capper in appointing him.
Notice to Subscribers in Oklahoma.
Our representative will be in your city soon and would like to have arrangements made for meetings at some of the places we expect to visit.

We are preparing attorneys to defend these men and it is the duty of the race to respond to this cause.

We are in receipt of a letter from Mr. P Fred Romare, formerly of Joplin, Mo., where he was engaged in the harness and vehicle business, and who recently leased his business in Joplin and, accompanied by his wife, removed to Jacksonville, Fl. From his letter we learn that he is doing fine and is enjoying the climate there.

We are glad to note the fact that the Baltimore Hotel at Kansas City, Mo., which a few years ago discharged all its colored waiters and placed white ones in their steward, has now reversed its policy and is again employing colored men. We hope these colored waiters will now conduct themselves as gentlemen, go dressed neat and clean, save their money, and act in a way that they can demand respect and reasonable wages. There is no reason why they should be portraits or stool pigeons because they hold positions in hotels. We are tired of this monkey business. We want to see our men do what is right and in a business way.
---
We note that a few days ago at the Muehlbach hotel, Kansas City, Mo., a committee of laundry strikers were to meet at that place, and because there were some colored women in this committee, the proprietor refused them admittance. We would like to know who are these cheap Jingo Negro hatters, who exclude colored people from entering their hotels on business or for any other purpose. There is always some cheap white man who tries to achieve a little notoriety by doing something offensive to colored people. The owner of the hotel ought to put someone in charge who will treat everybody respectfully.

WANT BETTER PROTECTION
Sapulpa Okla, Feb 19, 1918.
Editor of the Plahadelet
Knowing of your service to the race, I write to inform you that a few of us in Oklahoma are of the opinion that the time now rises for the Nigrate of the country to secure our Congress legislation that will guarantee to us and ours better protection, and I believe, as others, that if we can concentrate our forces we will be able to secure the relief sought. It has been suggested that we might secure the passage of a
bill through Congress making it a felony against the United States for the lynching of any of its subjects. Also recommending by Congress an amendment to the United States constitution which if adopted, will preclude any state from passing and enforcing Jim Crow and segregation laws.
We would be pleased to have any suggestions that you might make. We hope to work quietly in this matter and organize our forces, and try and have our plans all perfected by the convening of the next Congress. Hoping to hear from you at an early date, I remain. Respectfully yours.
S. L. JAMES.

STATUS OF THE WESTERN
CHRISTIAN RECORDER
Kansas City, Kan. Feb. 20, 1918. My Dear Brother-I am writing a few of the leading men of the Fifth district, as it may be that they do not know the exact status of the Western Christian Recorder. Now this is the situation: At the meeting of the Bishops' Council in Louisville, Ky., I was decided upon as editor and manager of The Western Christian Recorder, contingent upon its continuance. The financial condition of the paper is in such a terrible state that there is some uncertainty of its continuance.
Bishops Ross, Parks and Coppin were appointed a committee to meet in Kansas City, in April, perhaps, and thoroughly investigate conditions, and if they find it possible to continue the paper they are to put me in charge. The liabilities of the Western Recorder are as follows, as nearly as could be ascertained:
Total liabilities .....$3650
There is not one cent of cash to
the credit of the paper. This looks
pretty dark, it is true, but only the
$1400 may be an urgent claim, while
the others can be taken care of later.
I believe that if the paper is put
in my charge, and if I am given time,
that I can pay its running expenses
and take care of the $1400.
Now, you must see that if the paper is allowed to suspend it will be many a year before another one could be established in the West. The West really needs the paper, and, since the general conference of 1920 will meet in St. Louis, it will need it more particularly. If I get the paper, my aim will be to establish in Kansas City a regular office and A. M. E. Book Depository, which would be of great convenience to our churches and add much to the prestige and income of the church.
Now, my opinion is, that if the strong men of the West will get behind this thing and some of them will meet the committee of bishops, we will be able to keep the Western Recorder in operation. If you will stand behind Bishop Parks, I believe he can keep the paper for us. Think these things over, and let us join forces, and the Western Recorder will not be suspended.

OBITUARY OF JOSEPH CURRY.
Joseph Curry was born in Urkana, Ohio, June 7, 1861 and died in Herton, Kan., Feb. 12, 1918. He was 54 years, 8 months and 5 days old. He was united in holy matrimony to Miss Florence Wheeler in 1891, by his father, the Rev Win Wheeler in Elater, Salire county, Missouri. He professed a hope in Christ many years are in Ottawa Kan., under the pastorate of the Rev John Turne. He was until his death a member of St John A. M. 12 church of Tomaka Kan., of which the Rev Peck is the pastor. He was taken to his bed on the 5th of February and died on the 12th at 7 a.m. He was a constant reader of the Bible, always trying to learn more about Jesus. He was willing and ready to go. He was a member of Cyrene Commandery, Knights Temple, and of Mt Moriah Lodge of the Masonic fraternity of Tomaka. He was a devoted Christian and believed in unity and standing together. In the presence of his wife, Bro. Bailey, Mr. vaughn, his nurse, Major Wim Clay, his worshipful master, and five other Knights he departed this life very easy—just slept away in the full triumph of faith. He leaves behind a loving and faithful mother, a devoted wife, four brothers, other relatives and a host of friends. One of his favorite songs was, "To the Old Time Religion."

MR9. ANNA NOBLE DEAD.
This community was grieved Monday when it was learned that Mrs. Anna Noble had passed away at her home, 1317 Chandler street, after an illness of only two days duration. She was one of the best liked women in the city—kind, loving, and a splendid neighbor. She was thrifty and enterprising, never finding time for frivolous pleasures, and, through her individual efforts to work and save, was comfortably supplied with this worldly goods. She was a faithful, conscientious Christian, having embraced the religion of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ when a mere child and adhered strictly to its teachings until the end. The deceased was born in Abbeyville county, South Carolina, in 1666, and came to Kansas in 1901. Her friends were legion among the people of both races, who comfortably filled the church to pay her a last tribute of respect. She is survived by a son, Mr. Nick Wright, and a brother, Mr. Nick Chiles, and numerous other relatives. Funeral services were held Wednesday afternoon from the Third Baptist church, of which she was a member, conducted by Rev. W. W. Lwong of Atchison, assisted by the pastor, Rev Jefferson. The floral offerings were profuse and beautiful, a testimonial of the high esteem in which she was held. Interment was in Mt. Auburn cemetery. Peace to her ashes.

Rev. DeNoss and Mrs. Watson of
Washburn and, K U Law Students Put Their Legal Ability on Exhibition Before a Big Crowd.
Firm in our belief that the house of the Lord is no place to give shows, or "entertainments" as some term them, we yielded to the "influence of friends, and for the first time in our career, transgressed a cherished belief and took the church for a joke shop by attending a mock trial at the Shiloh Baptist church last Friday night. The affair was staged by law students from the University of Kansas and Washburn college. It furnished much amusement and showed that the race has four good lawyers in the making. They are bright, keen young men and those who have witnessed legal giants in a contest say that it was just like the real sure enough legal battle.
The case of State v. John Hardup and Sally Queen, charged with murder, furnished the bone of contention. Mr. William Bradshaw and Mr. Le Roy Harris, Washburn, represented the prosecution while Mr. William D. Harrison and Mr. C. L. Jones, Kansas University, defended. Mr. T. W Hueber, L. L.'D of Washburn law school was the presiding judge. The arguments on both sides were strong and allly presented; so much so that the jurors became "befuddled," and could not reach an agreement.
A large audience witnessed the affair, and if demonstrations count for anything, all enjoyed it.
REV. JOS HILL MAKING GOOD.

With the program was a photo of the eloquent divine for each member of The Plaindender force for which Rev Hill has their thanks. He is a warm, personal friend of the members of this force and we are always delighted to note his achievements.
