E. church, which is in session here, has just re-elected Rev. J. Arthur Hamlett editor of the Christian Index. Perhaps more interest centered in his re-election than in any other matter that has as yet come before the Conference. For years it has been considered a grave blunder and suicidal for editor of this paper to criticise the official conduct of the bishops. Editor Hamlett was elected four years ago and at once gave notice that no one high or low in the church would escape criticism in the index, which policy he has lived up to. This has brought upon him the wrath of almost all the bishops with Bishop C. H. Phillips leading the fight against Hamlett's reelection Bishop Phillips put Dr. C. M. Noble of Louisville, Kv., in the race, while Bishop R. L. Williams put Dr. J. A. Martin of Georgia in the race. But the manhood of the church asserted itself, and when the vote was cast, it was found that Hamlett received all of the 370 votes except 64, which the other two men received. Thus the church has put itself on record in favor of democracy instead of epistolical tyranny. Hamlett is the only editor of the Christian Index that has criticised the bishops and survived their wrath. He is regarded now as a very strong man in the church and race—Atlanta Independent.

SOME NOTES CLEANED IN PASSING THROUGH OKLAHOMA Chuckasha, Okla., is the pace where the officers took locat. Liberty from the train because he fused to ride in a dim Gym, carl. I sat Liberty was an aviator I carried at camp Domphe, and was on route to the camp under orders from the government. He was taken off the train and had $500 and costs, amounting to $21, by dusk. Huffman of the city count. He was represented by a colored attorney for whom the court told him than for an orphan donkey. The aton, in the hula apha for lenency for the heiromint, from the North and did not underst. other rules, and that he had never been used to serve at the Judge in his haka referred to the colored "town" as "bob" saving that, as Pobl. of it. I now the customs of the South, and that if he thou outt it would to ride in the same car with white people, there wouldn't be enough money in Oklahoma to pay full time." The lauteren stood up for his rights and said he did not want any money, but wanted justice, the best he could do what was in his right to do, and he beert led the Police outside Oldham and had a riot to ride to his destination. Now we think the government ought to reimbuse this officer and have the police arrested for an utterance the Stars and Stripes and the state to go on enforcement by going this solider. The Chief of Police should if he be arrested, for this act was nothing less than treason, and no pro-terrorism could have done more insulting thing to the government than attacking a Another doer did thing that he pard at chuckish that a teleri um was sent there to the Red Cross hood, saving that it was two sack off at the hat, who is of course supposed to be loyal and all to the government of the soldiers who are in distress, not thin one that the colored soldier were a part of the government and entitled to all the rights and benefits of white soldiers, and not thinking that these two soldiers were colored, decorated the ambulance with flowers and nice white staffing and had the driver proceed to not the traing and when the soldiers were taken off and were seen to be colored, the hands of the white women went up in the air in disgust; the war- rior was or else back and the soldiers left on the platform. The driver is reported as saying that he would rather haul dogs than "niggers." After five hours of par- line, some officers took the soldiers to a hospital and placed them on the trade list, but those were cattle or dogs. When the colored ladies' auxiliary of the Red Cross heard of the affair, they demanded that they be given charge of the young men but were refused. These ladies claim that they have been trying to work as an auxiliary of the Red Cross, but that the white women had never giver them proper recognition. Now this is an outrage, shame and disgrace, and the department at Washington should investigate this case and these white ladies should be censured and dismissed from Red Cross work. It is time that southern white people learn there are other places in the country besides the South, and that people are being treated right by the public. While at Chichasha we were glad to meet Mr. Chas. Pegg, who owns a fine auto and is a prosperous farmer. We had the pleasure of dining with Mr. Gaston, who is one of the finest machinists in Oklahoma, and who is employed by Wetherpoon & Company, manufacturers of guns and compressors. Mr. Gaston has been connected with this firm since 1908. We are proud of the great work that Mrs. Tyson is doing at Wewoka. She is chairman of the women's work, and must say we say more goods in their Red Cross rooms than we have women in similar places where white women were in charge. Mrs. Tyson is one of Oklahoma's leading ladies and is the wife of Dr. A. H. Tyson. At Wewoka we met Mr G. S. Parker who is farm demonstrator for Seminole and Highes counties, being employed by the government. He is a progressive gentleman and farmer, and he and the Hon J. Coody Johnson own a fine hord of Holstom cattle Mr. Parker is making a specialty of poultry raising and has purchased a small space on the edge of town, where he is demonstrating to the public the amount of money to be reimbursed from poultry raising. He was born at Elmner, Holmes Co. Mills and was for some time agricultural instructor at Tippier-Koovy-Davis College att Tallahassee, and for a number of years was an employee of the M. K. A T Railway. His wife is a teacher in the public schools at Wagoner. Mr. Parker also operates a cream separator and two large incubators. The government made no mistake in employing him as demonstrator for the farmers in that part of the country. EDITORIALS We are glad to learn through the associated press that General Pershing reports two colored troopers putting twenty Germans to flight. We are proud to see that General Pershing is doing the right thing by giving proper credit to the colored troopers. We wrote him a letter some time ago asking that he do so, and we see from the report that he is carrying out our desires and doing the thing that is right. At the same time we would like for President Wilson to notice that at a town in Georgia this week a colored man and woman were lynched. While two colored men are patting twenty Germans to flight, there are a then and a more robust white in the South teaching and outraging the colored people, a man and a woman—theymay have a lot of these soldiers. It is an opportune for the We are in receipt of a copy, from Lissette T. Stetson of you, Lennitt J.

That is what we do. However, we have this will be less to all the criminal law officers of restraints and beds. in lawsuits of restaurants and hotels. But we are so afraid to serve colored persons. There is a state law against discrimination, and there should be a more strict law against discrimination against scholars. We cannot undermine why the research would allow his men to frame from participation in racial disturbances, when the disturbance comes from the other side. There is no disturbance when a colored woman enters to a theater and pays for a seat and then is not allowed because she is colored, and if it is to be, is elected. The water is the disturber and should be the patria. Therefore or should have been issued with a pass to all public places, that if a man not at war at the time of the 1922 Division was shown, the places should be closed. This should have been General Bullock's order. We note the condition of this pro-Germian war of the theater in that but the daily newspapers have failed to mount the fact. It seems that all the men of the country have failed to say a word about the conviction of this man. We swear if General Bullock has made a bulletin of this fact. At Congress there are three fine colored gentlemen who are in charge of the Knights of Columbus and we were proud to see that the late Catholics who visit this room were glad to talk and interchange views with Protestants. Catholics are not as prejudiced as Protestants. A hostess house is being erected for the Old Division, and we are sure to say that the plans and specifications were outlined by the activity compainer, who was born and raised in Arkansas, and the hostess house when completed will look like some of the houses in Arkansas; and we hope when Miss Mabel Whiting, an accomplished and educated lady from the Last takes charge, she will undo what the Arkansas traveler has done and put the building in such a condition that it will be recognized as a hostess house. It looks to us like a smoke house or an Arkansas cotton shed or gin. Mme. Alice McClelland Todd THE MISSING First, grow your own Hair, so that you can tell other how to grow their Mine.

In the death list this week appears the name of Miss Goldie Marguerite Duke, one of the most popular and highly respected ladies of Topeka's younger social set. Miss Goldie had been allied for several months; fond hopes were entertained for her recovery, and when the news went out over the city Wednesday that she had answered the summons at the home of her parents, Rev. and Mrs. B. C. Duke, 1221 Buchanan street, the heart of old and young were saddened. Her journey across life's highway was short indeed, but measured by the great Marker of Time, her earthly sojourn had been as long as he who rounds out the allotted three score and ten years. She had followed Illen teachings, gave cheer and comfort to the desolate and drove sorrow and gloom from the family circle, and now that she had performed every earthly duty wisely and well, the Master called her from our midst unto a well owned reward. Miss Duke was 26 years of age and a faithful member of the Christian church from where the funeral will be held Sunday afternoon. Besides her parents, a sister, five brothers and a host of relatives and friends mourn her untimely demise. The Plaindealer extends sympathy to the bereaved family.
