The Topeka Plaindealer The Plaindealer Man is Now in Oklahoma Looking After Delinquent Subscribers. Get Ready to "Pay Off" MR. CHAS. D. ISE FOR ATTORNEY GENERAL MR. CHAS. D. ISE FOR ATTORNEY GENERAL Well Known Coffeyville Attorney and Former Montgomery County Prosecutor Seeks High State Office. (From the Coffeyville Daily Journal January 28, 1918) The friends and admirers of Attorney Chas. I., lie of this city will be pleased to know that he has announced himself as a candidate for attorney general. It is seldom that one awires to an office for which he is thoroughly prepared and justly entitled as Mr. Ise is to the office he seeks. No one will come before the people of Kansas in the coming election who is a greater credit to his native state or a more typical Kansan than is Mr. Ise. He was born on a farm in Western Kansas which his father, a veteran of the Civil War, homesteaded soon after the close of that war and to which place he came to hunt the buffalo, that then roamed the plains of Western Kansas. Charlie finished the common schools and high schools in Osborne county. In 1900 he graduated from the Kansas State Normal at Emporia, Kansas, being the youngest member of a class of 108. In 1905 he received the A. B degree from the Kansas University and in 1908 he was given the M. A. and LL. D., degrees from the same institution. He was prominent in athletics while in school, having played both football and base ball while at the Normal and all persons that were interested in college events about twelve or fifteen years ago have some time or other cheered him when he would hit the line during the three years he played on the K. U football team. He was never accused of playing dirty ball and never failed in a subject during his entire college career. Although he has done as much or possibly more college work than any other regular practicing attorney in THE NEW YORKER HON. CHAS D. ISE. the state, his education cost no one a cent except himself. During all the time he was attending school he spent his vacations in the harvest fields of Kansas, shocking wheat, stacking headed grain, running a threshing outfit and traveling as an expert trouble man for the International Harvester Company, and later walked across the state several times from east to west and north to south with the State Geological Survey, making a geological map of the state. Mr Lee came to our city in the fall of 1908 as principal of our high school and made a record in that position for efficiency that caused the school board to offer him the position tie following year at an increased salary, but he resigned and began the practice of law. In the fall of 1912, he was elected county attorney in a three cornered flight, the Bull Moose having a candidate in the field each time. While acting as count, attorney he made an enviable record for efficiency. An acquittal in a case he prosecuted was a rarity. He used good common sense in the institution of actions, he prosecuted fearlessly, and without favor all meritorious cases that were brought before him. He was the first county attorney in this state to send a man to the penitentiary for child desertion, and as soon as that law went into effect he brought consternation to the camps of the delinquent husbands and fathers in this county, it was during his term of office that this county saw the passing of the wee clubs and all open forms of the violation of the prohibitory liquor law. The manner in which he conducted his affairs was a relief to all that had business with his office. If a case was set for a certain time people soon began to know that he would be there at the exact time and place and would be prepared to dispose of the matter. He prepared his cases so carefully and thoroughly that the opposing attorneys soon began to take it for granted that his papers were not subject to attack and during his last year as county attorneys there was not a googe pleading of his attacked by the attorneys on the opposite side of the case.

Sunday it was, and free from care, Many thronged the various stouses of Praver. Skulking amid the cave brake's maze— An idiot black. War frightened and dazed! Drafted for service! Had made him crazed, "he knew not what he did!" In jail was he thrust, that Saturday Was planned When dawned the Sabbath light A 'trial' was to be given! Oh God! the mockery of that trium No care for justice—vengeance the while! So harmful; so devilish; so exceeding riled Was this cruel mob! In yonder church, the dismissal prayer floats out upon the Sabbath air. The crowd rushes out! For behold! there Is an angry mob! Within the shadow of that church's spire, Where 'brotherhood' is preached Behold a fire! Yes 'Tis built to be the funeral pyre pyre Of a living being! The voices, that, but a moment before Sang hymns and prayers murmured our. Now join in cries to torture more This idiot black. With red hot iron in an heather su way. They tortured the creature that abbit day. How could they 'gainst the Huns in velish After a scene like this! In you comfortable home near the chosen lot. A minister lowers his window. So very near the spot. Is his home. The Sabbath air is totally traught Three hours and a half, was the time consumed To inflict, on the creature, his awful doom. What dreadful moments of sorrow and gloom Must his Race have suffered! Ye perpetrators! What doth you to ture hold? Oh pity now his subjects! What grief! What dole! 'Tis God's Own Hand! Ah, mark ye, the Germans in their World Power quest Who have tailed the Belgians and their homes divest Who oppress the Jews with command and heat God avengeth soon! Then, In the face of all of this, why continue ye? Your very churches taunt you of hypocrisy. What is there to the word "Dervoc cracy!" If this is what it means!
