The Topeka Plaindealer
Twentleth Year. No.17.
BRIGHT SPOTS IN OKLAHOMA
The Plaindealer Man Finds Prosperous Communities Skipping Over the State.
The colored people of Okmulgee showed their loyalty by responding to The Plaindealer with the amounts they owed the Plaindealer. While in the city we attended the revival services conducted by the Rev. Duffy at the A. M. E. church of which Rev. Dawson is pastor. This young evangelist is certainly a whirlwind and has it on Dilly Sunday in every particular. He has done great work in Oklahoma and hundreds of people have turned from the crooked path to travel in the narrow way.
While at Okmulgee we had the pleasure of meeting a bridal party from Hot Springs, Ark, who were united in holy wedlock by Rev. Jos. T. Hill on Feb. 28th at the home of the bride. The groom, Mr. E. L. Martin, returned immediately to Okmulgee, but the bride has just recently made her entrance into her new home. Mr. Martin is a successful barber and owns considerable property and farm land. The bride was formerly Mrs. Vernice L. Williams, an intelligent widow and church worker of Hot Springs. There were many friends of the family at the depot to welcome the bride to the city. We met our old friend, Mr. J. H. Williamson, one of the old landmarks of Okmulgee. He owns considerable property and is enjoying life. Rev. Hoard, formerly of Orage City, Kansas, conducts a grocery store and undertaking establishment.
We also met Mrs. M. D. Cox, formerly of Topeka and daughter, Mrs. M. L. Brookka. Mrs. Cox conducts a nice grocery store and owns a fine home. She is a great worker and a race woman and has done much for unbuilding her race in Oklahoma.
AT BEGGS
we found a progressive class of colored people. We met Mr. Chas Lowman, who is a successful farmer and owns and controls over 500 acres of land. He also has a large touring car.
AT CHANDLER
which was our first visit, we arrived here on an early morning train and visited the beautiful home of Mr. and Mrs. G. W. Bauner. He is a successful cotton buyer, farmer and banker and his wife is principal of the Douglas school of that city, a position she has held for a number of years. After being served to a fine early morning breakfast in their beautiful dining room, which breakfast consisted of fine country cured ham and fresh eggs, we then motored to the school and to town. After visiting a few of our subscribers, we motored a few miles out and visited the farm of Mr. Robert Harlan, who owns a good farm a few miles out
At the Douglass school we enjoyed some beautiful singing and receptions as fine as we have heard anywhere. This was the first time we are thoroughly convinced that if the had the pleasure of visiting a school where a lady was principal and we lady principals will all measure up to Mrs. Sauner we will be in favor of them everywhere instead of men as they seem to take more interest in the children than men. Mrs. Sauner is a highly cultured woman and loves to work. She would be miserable if she was not in the school room. She is a fine housekeeper and does everything to make her home happy and agreeable. In her school she has a fine faculty of young ladies who are highly educated. They have a course in domestic art and science. The instrumental and vocal solos rendered by the pupils and teachers were as fine as we have heard anywhere in the country. Miss Leah Evans sang a solo. She has a very fine sweet voice and will some day be one of the singers of national reputation. It is in the small towns that we get the best people who go to make up the brain of the larger cities. At this exercise addresses were made by the editor and Mr. Sauner, which addresses were roundly applauded by both pupils and teachers.
Chandler is a commercial center and the colored people are loyal and good citizens. All they want in the small towns is honest leadership. Mr. Ellis White conducts a successful restaurant and grocery store and is doing well in the community. Mr. Chas Atkins and wife conduct a successful restaurant. The colored people own good property in the main thoroughfare of Chandler.
BRISTOW
was our next stop, which was our first visit to the town. Bristow is a thriving burg and we found a local class of people here. They have an undertaking establishment of which Mr. G. W. Harrison is the owner. The colored people should give this establishment their undivided support. They have two or three restaurant's one of which is owned by Mr. J. A. Duff). Dr. W. H., Whittaker is a live wire and takes great interest in defending the cause of the race.
Through his courage and manliness the colored people have been able to hold their own and now they can build and own property in the main part of town.
We also met Dr. Chas. Williams the husband of Mrs. Paralee Luca. Williams, formerly of Lawrence, Ka. They are doing well and have two fine children.
Mrs. E. A. Johnson conducts a successful restaurant and owns the building, is an industrious lady, full of race pride, a type of woman who always love to meet.
We met Mr. P. L. Shoals who controls many acres of land. He has mules, horses, cattle and hogs. His children are all industrious and assist him in getting to the front.
We met Mr. Henry Williams, one of the old timers who conducts a grocery store in the suburbs of the town.
SAPULPA
is a town where there are quite a number of colored people. It was here that we attended the election in which in one ward the colored people seemed to predominate. There are but few colored policemen and the street lights and street life provements in the community where colored people live are woofly neglected and while the colored people are interested in voting for while people they should see to it that they got proper recognition. We met our friend, Mr. H. Hutton who owns a grocery store and is a member of several lodges. We stopped with our friend, Mr. Harry Johnson and wife who conduct one of the nicest hotels in Oklahoma and are doing a large business. Dr. Humphrey and Dr. E. E. McCoy Johnson are enjoying a good practice.
It was in this town that we met the three colored lieutenants on the Jim crow car and who were refused service at the lunch counter but were obliged to take their lunch away in a sack while on the same train in the Pullman were white commissioned officers who were served dinner in the dining car with great pomp and style. Many white men on the train complained of this treatment accorded to colored soldiers and said it was a shame and disgrace and that had they been pro-Germans, the privilege of riding in the Pullman or enjoying their meals in the dining car would not have been denied them.
We visited the school of which Prof. W. E. Day is principal and found a fine building which was erected at a cost of several thousand dollars and a fine corps of teachers; everything modern. This is about the only town we know of in Oklahoma where the white people are fair to the blacks along educational lines.
TULSA
we must say is a great town and the colored people are making money, and are getting their eyes open to improved conditions, own good homes and in a few years will be a great factor in Tulsa. They have drug stores, restaurants, groceries, theaters and undertaking establishments and all are doing a prosperous business.
Mr. Thomas Gentry, formerly of Topeka, is engaged in the real estate business.
The Home Undertaking establishment, of which Mr. H. W. Ragdale is owner, is well equipped with an auto hearse and have just purchased an ambulance at a cost of several hundred dollars.
Mr. G. W. Wilson is a successful real estate man and has a fine business.
Dr. Bridgewater, who went there in the early days is enjoying a lucrative practice and owns several good pieces of property.
Rev. Tucker, pastor of the A M. E. church is preparing to build a new church.
Miss Blanche M. Woodfork, 417 N. Greenwood, is our correspondent and representative. She is one of Tulsa's highly cultured and educated young ladies and is instructor in one of the schools.
Tulsa has some fine lawyers, among whom are Hon. G. W. Huchin, formerly of St. Louis, Mo. He has been practicing law for several years.
Jackson and Goodwin, funeral directors, are enjoying a good business. Mr. Goodwin is an oil promoter and is doing quite a business. Mr. L. W. Wells, formerly of Topeka, is conducting a successful restaurant.
Our old friend, Hon. G W Curley, deputy sheriff, is worth several thousand dollars and is preparing to put up a new building.
We visited The Tulsa Star, of which Mr. Smitherman is the editor. We met Prof. Harry R. Graham, formerly of Western University, and who is now employed on The Star. The colored brother is voting to suit himself in Tulsa. As soon as colored people are allowed to exercise the right of franchise all over the state of Oklahoma, the results will be seen. If the Democrats just elected will see to it that the colored people are allowed to vote, they will be justified in continuing to vote the ticket.
A few miles out from Tulsa is the town of Sand Springs where the colored people are doing things. They operate several stores and restaurants.
we visited for a few hours and found Mr. C. M. Nichols, son and wife, who conduct a successful restaurant, confectionery and grocery doing fine.
TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING APRIL 26, 1918
Mr. and Mrs. Nichols are certainly enterprising citizens. They came to this place from Mississippi in 1903 and are making good. Mrs. E. R. Randle conducts a nice grocery and restaurant. We also met Mrs. A. B. Thompson, principal of the school. She is meeting with success and doing much to help the race.
AT CLAREMORE
we visited a few hours and from observation, the colored people seem to be doing nicely. A great many people go to this town for their health. The Cobb Hotel and Lang Hotel are the principal places where tourists stop. We were glad to note that our old friend, Mr. Jess Martin is still baggage master at the Frisco depot. He owns a beautiful bungalow which he recently erected.
AT VINITA
we found some improvements and several successful groceries.
Mr. Washington conducts a clothes cleaning establishment The Rider Hotel is still doing business. Mrs. Rider is enjoying better health Her daughter, Miss Georgia is at home assisting her mother They have recently purchased a fine automobile from which they get great comfort. Dr. L. R. Itman is enjoying a fine practice. He has three little boys of whom he is very proud. We met Mr. Veaters, who is boss of the section on the "Katy" in which service he has been for a number of years. We met Prof. W. A. Easter, principal of the graded and high school. Prof. Easter is a great race man and is making good. He is one of the leading educators of Oklahoma.
we met our friend, Mr. James Martin, of R. R. I, who is one of the most successful farmers in that part of the country. We are sorry to announce that he recently lost his big barn by fire which cost him $1,500 and its contents valued at $2,000. He owns and controls over 500 acres of land and has cattle, hogs and chickens. At present he is contemplating rebuilding and we hope he will be successful.
REV. J. M. BROWN VISITS TOPEKA
Former Kansan is Delighted With California.
The Plaindealer along with a host of Topekans were agreeably surprised Wednesday when that noble Christian gentleman and scholar, Rev. J. M. Brown, pastor of the Fifteenth Street A. M. E. church, Oakland, Calif., showed up on the scene. He was en route home from Kentucky, where he had been called on account of the illness of his aged mother, Mrs Alice Bird, who left Topeka a short time ago to reside with her children in that state. At this writing her condition is very grave.
Rev. Brown looked the picture of health and his immaculate dress showed that he is in good and regular standing with the master tailors of that city, and also that he is being imposed upon by being compelled to take a salary at which he and his estimable family can live in comfort and ease. He was bubbling over with good things to say about California and her people, and his looks proved every assertion. However, he is still deeply in love with Kansas and Kansas. It was here that he was reared, and preached among us for over a quarter of a century, and all have a warm spot in their heart for him. When the Plaindealer was started nearly twenty years ago, the name of the Ilev, J. M Brown was the first to grace our subscription list and it has always been there and always a year in advance.
When asked about our old journalistic friend, Hon. Joe B. Bass, editor of the Los Angeles Eagle, he said that Bass and his estimable helpmeet are rolling in prosperity, that they are true honest leaders and that they have the admiration and respect of the people of both races. Rev Brown will depart Monday for his home.

Send Strong Resolutions to City Commissioners When Race Men and Women are Wronged.
To the Hon. Mr. K A. Scheld, commissioner of public safety, and members of the Board of Commissioners of the City of Salt Lake:
Gentlemen; — Greeting and congratulating you as the highest officers of our noble City, of which we as colored citizens constitute a part of its constituency. We beg to submit the following; But permit us first to assure you that we do not come to you with any spirit of condemnation upon your part, but we feel that we have a very serious and just cause to present to you.
We wish further to assure you that we stand for all that is true and all that honest manhood can stand for. We wish further to assure you that we stand as firm as any humans can stand for law and order, and condemn all who do not stand for such; par
icularly at this most crucial time, when it seems that nothing but the shedding of innocent human blood will keep Imperialism from ruling the world.
We wish further to assure you that we do not bring any condemnation against the police department as a unit; but it is our desire to call your attention to a matter that happened on the corner of Second South and Main streets, Tuesday evening, April 9th, between the hours of 8:15 and 8:30, when three young persons; a young woman and two boys of color were standing there waiting for a car. Names: Thelma Stewart, Wallace Thurman and Wendell Hicks. A drunken U. S. soldier of the 20th regiment came down the street, and went out of his way to push this 15-year old boy off the walk, knocked him down and beat him, until this young woman interfered. The soldier then turned on her and knocked her down twice. When she endevoured to stop their escape, was snatched into a car with license number 969. Although she was screaming to the top of her voice, not an officer could be seen. She was taken to Third South and West Temple and there thrown out by these men. Although they had the number of the license on the car and its driver making his confession to taking the man to First West and Fourth South; there was no serious effort made to apprehend these men.
We admit one of the boys and the young woman were taken out last Friday to Ft. Douglas to identify the soldier, but this was too late. No matter what mark and been on him remember four days had passed and the marks could have healed.
We therefore condemn the actions of the officers on that evening in the most bitter terms, and ask your honors to take this matter up and find out why there was no effort put forth to apprehend these men when they possessed such splendid information.
We plead for a democracy that will
We plead for a democracy that will be safe for all men in Salt Lake City, and not a land of antocracy. Signed by a committee from a mass meeting of colored citizens of Salt Lake City, Utah

WHITE SOLDIERS REBEL.
One Hundred Men Escape from Camp But Most are Captured.
Below is a press dispatch which tells its own story. We shall watch this with time and patience to see what will become of these men who have really committed a crime and much different from that committed by the soldiers of the 24th Infantry when they were protecting themselves from mob violence and outrages of the police department. White men can do most anything and get away with it but if colored men do something to protect themselves, they are lynched, burned or imprisoned. There must be an awful mean, contemptible class of whites about Houston, Texas. Billy Sunday has our permission to go there and clean up the town:
Houston, Texas, April 16-Approximately 100 men belonging to various organizations in the headquarters trains and military police companies escaped from Camp Logan yesterday in rebellion against an order transferring them to other organizations in the division.
All but two of them have been captured and will probably face charges of conspiring to mutiny, it was announced today. The majority of the men were from the old "Fighting Seventh" guard regiment of Chicago

this life April 23, 1916.

healed.
But the little load of sorrow
Is within my heart concealed.

PEACE NOW REIGNS IN BAPTIST RANKS.
Statement of the Commissioners of the National Baptist Convention (unincorporated.)
Submitted to the Joint Meeting of Commissioners of the Southern Baptist Convention, the National Baptist Convention (incorporated), and the National Baptist Convention (unincorporated), at Memphis, Tenn., March 19th, 1918.
"Blessed are the peace-makers: for they shall be called the children of God."
"Behold, how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!"
"In love of the brethren be tenderly affectionated one to unmother; in love preferring one another."
To Baptists now assembled in 'Peace Conference' in Memphis, and to all whom they represent; to Dr. J. B. Gambrel, president of the Southern Baptist Convention and O. L. Haley, secretary of their Mediation Committee, Revs. Boone, Barton, Cox, Atty, Atkirs, and others of said Convention; and to all our churches and brethren everywhere—Christian Greeting in the name of Him whose we are and whom we survive, we the undersigned, D. B. Gains, J. W. Hurse, G. W. Alexander, S. S. Jones, J. L. Harding, S. R. Price, D. W. Bowen, duly appointed Commissioners of the National Baptist Convention (unincorporated), beg to submit to the joint commissions of American Baptists here assembled the following statement:
Speaking personally and for those we represent, we respectfully declare our sincere wish for the peace of fraternal fellowship and for the organic union of our two national conventions.
The authority of our commission and the objective of our appointments appear in the following preamble and resolutions adopted by our convention in Atlanta, Ga., last September:
"Rev. R. H. Boyd offered the following resolution in accordance with a resolution uttered by the Southern Baptist Convention at New Orleans, La., reported to this body in session.
Whereas, The Southern Baptist Convention in session in New Orleans, La., May, 1917, passed a resolution tendering the good offices of Southern Baptists to both factions of the National Baptist Convention, and,
Whereas, Rev. Dr. J. B. Gambrel, president of the convention, and Rev. Dr. O. L. Hallley, an official of the Southern Baptist Convention, came to Atlanta in person and urged the appointment of a like commission or committee from this body to meet with their committee at such time and place as could be hereafter agreed upon, therefore be it
Resolved, That the president of this convention be impowered to appoint a committee of seven, whose duty it shall be when called upon to meet a committee of the Southern Baptist Convention to confer with them concerning a harmonious consideration of the differences between the two factions of the National Baptist Convention, and to report their findings for the consideration of this convention at its next session."
That there be no misunderstanding, we beg to call your attention to the fact we were appointed to meet the commissioners of the Southern Baptist Convention. However, we understood a like commission to our own was to be asked from our sister convention.
We are regular missionary Baptists; hence we stand for Baptist principles revealed in the New Testament, and it is our intention to be loyal to the Baptist polity made historic through the ages.
It should be known that the province of our commission is only advisory, not legislative, authority resting alone in the National Baptist Convention, whom we represent. It follows that we CAN NOT form organic union between our two conventions. In fact we are blinded to report our "findings" to the convention.
We insist, however, that the peace of love and Christian fellowship between Baptists of the two conventions MUST obtain and that every faculty tending toward or aristion should be encouraged.
"It is truly suspect that as prerequisite to the glorious consumption of "victory unty prayed for and sought the following things must be done, to wit:
(a) The articles of incorporation (charter) obtained in Washington, D. C., May 17, 1915, by Revs. C. H. Parrish, Bishaw W. Johnson, S. H. Griggs, W M D Norman, W. Walbanks, and Prof. M M Rogers, is a bar to denominational unity a d must be annulled, abromented.
(b) law suits now pending against Baptists are a barrier to peace and unity and should be withdrawn.
Do it know that we are in most hearty sympathy with the denominational movement to establish a permanent National Baptist Theological Seminary and Women's Training School. I evidence of the ingenuess to attain that goal we point to the purchase of the Bosobel College property in Nashville, upon which the first payment has been made. We suggest the appointment of a committee from each of our two conventions to canvass the fields, Memphis and Nashville, that the denomination be one in the field of Christian education. Our earnest plea to southern Baptists is, that they know our profound gratitude and appreciation of the substantial praffers made by Drs. Gambrel and Halley yesterday in open meeting touching our proposed seminary.
It is our wish that the Southern Baptist Convention thoroughly acquaint itself with the denominational status of colored Baptists; that they appoint permanent Advisory Committee to co-operate with the trustees of the National Baptist Seminary and to give them the benefit of their mature experience in Christian education.
In harmony with the open statement made by Dr. Masters in our convention in Atlanta last September, that the Home Mission Board of the Southern Baptist Convention will not give money to any colored Baptist en-
gaged in furthering strife among his brethren, we ask that Dr. D. B. Grey, secretary of the board, be requested to mail mission allowances of his board direct from his office to our missionaries of both conventions in due proportion and equity. Relative to the various boards of our conventions, incorporated and unincorporated, we suggest the appointment of a committee or committees to draft regulations for co-operation or a plan of consolidation where such may be deemed wise, their report to be submitted to a convention for final ratification.
It should not be forgotten, that incorporated boards are separate and distinct entities in law; that they are supreme within the sphere of their legal status; that no convention or foreign person or organization can command them. Their selfperpetuating and self-determinating rights are the guarantee of law, and conventions may not interpose. There are two national conventions of Baptist women, each having various boards expressive of its work. Both their mission and educational work is distinctive, as with men, though the objective is identic.
We respectfully advise that Baptist women of the national convention unincorporated delay any plan or method of formal organic union till these proceedings, our plans and purposes receive final adjustment in organic reunion of the two conventions. This mention is made, that our loyal sisters may know their worth and work are most highly prized
Finally: The fact that Baptist preachers are barred from certain pulpits of their brethren because of relationship to the National Convention (unincorporated), and that corresponding messengers to conventions and associations are deprived of the Baptist courtesy of an introduction, though their standing be regular in their churches and their work denominational, is, we respectfully submit, a hindrance to unity as well as a palpable expression of non-fellowship, we suggest that interpulpit service be furthered and corresponding messengers be welcomed as Baptist custom.
Repeating the scripture—"Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!" We are, in the love of the Gospel of our Lord, Jesus Christ, your brethren.
