Gov. Capper Welcomes Delegates.
The address of welcome on behalf of the Topeka lodges was made by Dtr. Lulu Hicks, and the response was by Dtr. Lulu Roundtree, of Omaha. Tuesday evening a public reception was held at Hamilton hall for the visitors, which was attended by more than 500 persons.
Governor Arthur Capper welcomed the delegates on behalf of the State, and response was made by Sir A. P. Wilson, Kansas City, Kansas, who is a clerk in the streets and walks department of that city. His address was one of the finest ever heard in Topeka. He is an able man, well educated and a forceful, eloquent speaker. As an orator he is a top liner.
Next on program was the able remarks by Rev. Sir Frank Wilson, head and founder of the order, and who as a pulld spoken is no doubt He is a man the hard ripe with experience—who his played an important part in telling his race over the pitfalls or unhappy past. He has been a wrist coacher who work will or not holdly as a proud and hard man to an enterprise, with the ability. He is one of those hold and father's man and is not afraid to call a spade by his proper name. Rev. Wilson reviewed briefly a few of the things accomplished by the Order for the race and what they expected to do in the future with the assistance of men in the law-making bodies of the nation. He told how the race had been deceived by white men who had come on bended knee only to forget after they had been elected. He admonished the next United States Senator from Kansas to be fair to the race and not make any promises unless he is honest and sincere. He said that the colored men and women had profited by past experience and that no white man could expect to retain their suffrage unless he stood up bravely for the things that would elevate the race. He paid a high tribute to Governor Capper for his manliness in exercising his power in the fullest extent in seeing that he race received a square deal and assured him that the race had confidence in him and believed that his future actions would be guided by the past.
The program for the evening included music by the Taborian band; invocation by the Rev. Sir H. W. White, C. G. O.; vocal solo by Dir Alice McClelland Todd; introduction of Governor Capper by the Rev. Sir T. A. Bowers; music by the Harmony quartette; piano solo by little Miss Janet Beatrice Buffington; vocal solo by Miss Anna Griffith. Rev. Bowers closed the program with a timely address which was well received and highly instructive.
The Annual Sermon.
Wednesday evening at Hamilton hall, where the sessions are being held, the annual sermon was delivered by the Rev. Sir H. W. White, C. G. O., and candidate for member of the legislature from N. Topeka. Rev. White maintained his reputation as a forciful and eloquent speaker, and the sermon was full of good and wholesome advice. The public was admitted to the services and about 800 people were present.
Entertained Grand Temple.
Yesterday evening the Grand Temple and Tabernacle were honored guests of the Mhids and Pages of Honor. The affair was in keeping with the royal manner that has characterized the previous sessions of the order since the opening day. The program teemed with interest and was a credit to the participants, the race and the order.
Dr. Stacey Flourney acted as master of ceremonies of the evening. Among the features of the program was a piano solo by little Miss

Topeka Gathering Best in History of the Order-Reports Show Wonderful Advancement.
The twenty-seventh annual Grand session of the Knights and Daughters of Tabor, International Order of Twelve Spaced Tuesday in a blaze of glory. Never before in the history of the order has so much interest and enthusiasm been manifested as being shown at this meeting. The war seems to have aroused the men and women filled them with a determination to press forward, the renewed vigor. Our boy is in front and when the news of this session reaches them they will know and feel that the "house" is still burnt.

that we are with them and lending every aid. This session is also one of grave importance to the whole race in the way of adjusting matter to meet the new conditions that confront us. The leaders have shown great wisdom in not following the lead of a few individuals who disregarded the law and called off the meeting of their respective grand lodges. The Taborians have taken the lead and set the pace for the Pythians and Old Fellows of Kansas and also the Masons of Missouri, who abandoned their annual meetings. This gathering will go down in history as an aid to the successful prosecution of the world's greatest war.
The International Order of Twelve was organized in Kansas by Rev. Sir Frank Wilson, of Topeka twenty-seven years ago, which is a traternal benefit association composed of many of the most progressive men and women of the race. The Kansas-Nebraska jurisdiction, now in session in Topeln, opened Tuesday, is affiliated with the international organization. The parent society held its annual meeting this year in Little Rock, Ark. The society has in the United States 200,000 members, Kansas alone has 4,000 members

higher wages. The resolution adopted is as follows:
"We, your committee on the colored people of jurisdiction of Kansas and Nebraska, beg leave to say we find them progressing rapidly along industrial lines. They are finding better paying positions than ever before in the history of the country. We urge that more of them engage in commercial pursuits. Our women who are employed in laundry work and other positions are not being paid as much as they earn, and should organize in every city and town, demand better pay for their labor. They cannot continue to work for small wages, while they pay for their homes, educate their children and support those who are dependent upon them."
Little Louise Julia Wilson, the four year old daughter of C. G. M. Mentor Rev Sir Frank Wilson, was adopted by the Order. Kansas City and Hutchinson each asked for the next session but Hutchinson won and has been named as the next place of meeting. The lodge voted to purchase Liberty Bonds.
Yesterday afternoon the Grand
Lodge adjourned and in a body vis-
lored the office of The Planktoner, of
official organ of the Order, in a body.
They came about two hundred strong
and was the first time that this or
any similar organization had visited
a newspaper plant owned and oper-
ated by a member of the race in a
body. For years the Planktoner has
been the official mouthpiece of the
order; printing all of the official
news, pictures, stationary, blanks
etc. We had something to show the
men and women who have stood by
us for all these years when they ar-
tived and they were delighted and
surpiled to see such a well equipped
plant. They found nothing ancient;
everything modern, including a lin-
otype, cylinder presses, etc., and they
also found them operated by race
men and women in our own home.
After inspecting the many devices
for doing printing, they were served with ice tea and waffers by Miss Linda Greene, Mrs. Kae Morgan Harris, Miss Thelma Idle Mae Chiles and Mrs. Atinichol's Chiles Williams, members of The Plaindealer staff. To us it was a high honor to have them call and a happy inspiration to those who have foreseen had been total strangers to the actual work being done by the official organ of the Knights and Daughters of Tabor. Whether they come single or in two's, four's or crowds, they will always find the latchstring on the outside and a warm welcome at The Plaindealer.

Today (Hilda) closed the largest order in Kansas, and the parade which moved down Kansas avenue at 12:30 was declared by many early div settlers to have been the most spectacular one witnessed on the streets of Topon Headed by the Taborian band. It was a picture long to be reminiscent of a spectacular pageant the glare and glitter of which is outside only by the gaudy aristocrats of the circus.
The parade moved down Quincy to Fourth street and then south on Kansas avenue. It was headed by the local Taborian band. Next in order come the drill team of the Daughters of Tabor, dressed in green
skirts and white waist and each one armed with a sword. There were several companies of women followed by the drill teams of Knights from Topeka, Atchison, Leavenworth, Parsons and Kansas City, Kansas. The rear guard was a corps of eighteen or twenty automobiles loaded with Knights and Daughters. Turning east on Tenth, they marched to Quincy street, thence south to Hamilton hall on Sixth street, where an indoor picnic was enjoyed.
Endorse Rev. White for Legislature.
After reaching the hall the first thing in order was the offering of a resolution endorsing the Rev. Sh. H. W. White, chief grand orator, for member of the legislature from N. Topeka. The resolution was unanimously adopted, and an earnest effort will be put forth to bring about his nomination and election.
In the evening about seven or eight hundred people witnessed the contest and exhibition drill by the different teams. Two bands the Taborian and Jackson's famous 23d Regiment played alternately throughout the evening. The Lady guards, Kansas City, Atchlson and Topeka, appeared in an exhibition drill and elicited much applause. The contest for the one hundred dollars was between Parsons and Lawsonworth in which the former were the victors. The drill Teams

North Side Divine Wants to Go to the Legislature,
Rev. H. W. White has announced himself as a candidate for member of the legislature from North Topeka. He is a Republican and an ardent supporter of the business interests of Topeka and if elected will make one of the strongest and best representatives ever elected from Shawnee county.
who announces himself as candidate for coroner of Shawnee county, subject to the Republican primaries Aug. 6, says he is running for the office from the fact that he believes everybody should have a square deal and he does not believe that a public officer should discriminate or show favoritism to anyone.

He owns two establishments, one on the North and one on the South and has been an ardent supporter of the party and has worked hard at the polls for the election of public officers and this is his first time to ask for the office of coroner.

SOUTHERN SLACKERS
We wish to call the southern white man's attention, and also the attention of Secretary of War Baker and General Crowder to an article which appeared in the Kansas City Star May 30. The article, which speaks for itself, shows that even the sheriff is a slacker, and that many others are deserters, and thousands have refused to return their questionnaires. Now we have always claimed that the southern white man was a coward when it came to fighting in the open, and his bravery only seems to assert itself when banded together as a mob, he takes the law in his own hands and goes out at night to lynch, burn at the stake, or otherwise outrage a colored man. It is the duty of the government to see to it that these renegades and deserters are brought to time, for this condition exists not alone in Alabama, but in a majority of southern states—white men shacking their duty while colored men go to the front loyal and glad to defend the honor of their country when at the same time white men stay behind to outrage the wives, mothers, and sisters of these colored soldiers. Now in the name of high Heaven, who don't this government be fair to all and treat everyone alike? It seems there is no power on earth that can make the southern white man obey the laws of his own country. We think the government had better sons some colored soldiers south to round up these deserters who are hiding everywhere. This shows what southern chiefly amounts to.
FAILED TO ENFORCE DRAFT LAW
Alabama Sheriff Arrested by U. S.
In Campaign Against Slackers
Montgomery, Ala., May 30—Arrest of Sheriff H. A. Harris of Chilton County, and W. T. Martin, an alleged deserter from the army, were deposited today in the campaign of federal authorities in Chilton and Cooosa counties against alleged deserter and slackers. Harris, chairman of the county exemption board is charged with failure to enforce the Draft Law, morbidity, and inefficiency.
Federal authorities say a number of men who are expelling the draft and have deserted from the army are housing in caves in Chilton county and defying arrest. They are said to be armed with rifles, which were sent through Chilton county.
Adjutant general Hubbard anounced today that between 8:00 and 9:00 registrants in this state have failed to return their questionnaires, and that defiant bands of shackers, augmented by deserters, are at large in DeKalb, Tuscaloosa, and Jayette counties, as well as in Chilton and Coosa.
COLORED WOMENS' CLUBS
ENDORSE GOVERNOR CAPPER
State Federation Adonta Strong
Resolution Favoring the Kansas
Executive for His Manliness.
At the annual meeting of the
State Federation of Colored Womens'
Clubs held in Wichita a few days ago,
the following resolution was adopted
Whereas: Our beloved country is now engaged in the most glastic struggle of all times, fighting for a just and righteous cause, for a world's democracy, for civilization against barbarism, for everlasting peace and justice to all mankind, yet the awful crime of lynching is increasing to an alarming extent.
American citizens in our own dear land are being lynched and borned with impunity, and governors of states where such lawlessness obtains, claim to be powerless to stop it.
Therefore, be it resolved, that the State Federation of Colored Women's clubs in annual session, petition the Kansas delegation in Congress to exert every effort for the enactment of a law for the suppression of mob violence and lynching, and we shall deem it our sacred duty to oppose any candidate for Congress who does not favor such an act.
Whereas: The women of the State Federation of clubs have met in their eighteenth session for the purpose of discussing and endorsing those subjects pertaining to our race which will make for uplift and progress; and,
Whereas, we see the need of every citizen of the United States in conservation, thrift and loyalty;
Therefore, be it resolved, that we continue the work begun in our Federation eighteen years ago with more real and energy each succeeding year;
Be it resolved, that this body seeing the necessity of thrift and conservation in helping to win this war, practice and teach such in every way possible in the home;
le it resolved that our loyalty to our country will stand out plainly, not in words, but deeds, and knowing the great work the Red Cross is doing for the brave ones who have left the confords of home to fight for a world-wide democracy; that we may all put forth our greatest effort in this great work for humanity; that we believe in a Government, state and national, that will draw no line save the line of justice; a government fair to all mankind and protecting all on the game basis;
Be it resolved that we favor the Susan B. Anthony National Amendment, giving all women the right to vote, that we will use our influence showing the women of our race the necessity of registering, voting and taking an active part in municipal, state and national affairs, to the end that we may assist in placing such men in office who believe in giving the Negro a fair deal at all times and in all places; men with moral courage to stand alone for right.
Be it resolved, that our cry shall be justice and our watchword loyalty.
Resolved, that we heartily endorse the patriotic, fair and economical administration of Hon. Arthur Capper, as governor of the State of Kansas, and we earnestly commend his candidacy for the United States senatorship to the voters of this state, knowing that in him we will have a man representing in full, the patriotic spirit and high moral sentiment of the great State of Kansas, and who will fearlessly conserve alike, the vital interests of every citizen.

EQUAL RIGHTS PLEA
MADE TO CONGRESS
Delegates to Session Hero Put Petition in Penrose's Hands.
Washington Post June 20. Congress is requested to make lynching a crime against the Federal government, and as such subject to the jurisdiction of the Federal courts, in a petition unanimously passed by the National Colored Liberty Congress which closed its sessions here yesterday.
This and five other requests for the abolition of specific race discriminations are advocated by the petitioners as a win the war measure. The petition has been placed in the hands of Senator Penrose, and it is to be presented to the Senate this week.
The Colored congress protests that Negroes are discriminated against in public and Federal buildings in Federal territory. In public carriers operated by the Government in certain states, and in the army and navy schools, in the right of suffrage in certain states and in the civil service.
The petitioners ask, in view of the militant service rendered by their race during the present war, "that our own republic may not be a part of the world not safe for democracy." They also protest the segregation of races in the officers schools.
The Congress was called for the purpose of laying the cause of the coloured man before the United States Congress, and was attended by 115 delegates from 31 states. H H Harrison of New York, was chairman of the Congress, and Prof J W Bell, of Kentucky, secretary William M Trotter of Boston, was elected chairman of the national executive committee for the coming year. M W Spencer was elected secretary.
RUCK WOODWARD TO HAVE SECOND TERM
Faithful Douglas County Sheriff Has Won the Confidence and Respect of the Voters.
Sherrif Woodward has been attending to his duties on the draft board, putting the young men off for service, rather than take the time to campaign for reelection, but good judges of politics believe that the people will see to it that he is given the Republican nomination for a second term. J. R. Woodard has been a resident of Douglas county for sixty-two years. He has worked hard as a farmer, has been one of the active

That Mr. Woodward has always been recognized as a man who could be depended upon is shown by his history. He was postmaster at siege, was school clerk in three different districts, was Justice of the peace in Clinton township for six years, was trustee of Marion township for three years, was sheriff of Douglas county from 1901 to 1908 and is now serving his first term as sheriff, being elected in 1916. He is also chairman of the Douglas county draft board, where he has rendered faithful and efficient service.
J. R. Woodward believes in the law and in its enforcement He plays no favorites in the enforcement of the law and treats all alike. He is manly and straightforward. His friends believe that he is entitled to a second term because of his ability and ask the voters to remember to say a good word for him to their friends. He is a staunch friend of the colored people and many of the best men and women of the race are supporting him.

The baseball team captained by Private Clarence Hardy of Topeka played their initial game at Heathwood Park on the 4th and defeated the Kansas State Home Guard team by a score of 17 to 6. Dempsey Parker and Hardy forming the battery. Other games are being scheduled for the future.
The first promotion from the ranks was made a few days ago when Private Eugene Jenkins of Olathe, a former student of W. U., climbed the 75 foot flag pole, unassisted, and brought down the flag. He was promoted and appointed color sergeant. The concrete squad is laying concrete sidewalks around the buildings in the place of the brick walks now removed.
Captains Joy and Briscoe of Washington inspected the detachment on Friday the 5th, to make recommendations regarding the extension of the school for 10 days.
Bishop Parks, President Peck, Drs. J. R. Ransom, and W. H. Thomas spent the day on the campus Friday, making arrangements for more equipment and supplies for the shops.
The electrical division has drawn plans for the installation of electric lights in the residence of Dr. W. T. Vernon, and will start work installing in a few days. The residence will be occupied by Pres. Peck.
Owing to the demand for negro mechanics and trademen in the army it is probable that another contingent of selective men will follow this one for mechanical training. This will afford a splendid opportunity for young men to get in the classified service.

CIVAL WAR VETERAN OUT
FOR REGISTER OF DEEDS
Capt. Kimball, Old Citizen and Bus-
iness Man Seeks Office.
Capt. F. M. Kimball, Republican
candidate for register of deeds, is a
veteran of four years' service in the
Civil War, and immediately follow-
ing the war, was on detached ser-
vice in the freedmen's bureau, in the
South, to care for the colored people
and to protect them in their newly
acquired freedom, where many times
his life was in greater jeopardy than
during the war. Established colored
schools and maintained them for
several years, during the reconstruc-
tion period, largely at his own ex-
pense.
By virtue of his loyalty to his country and the cause of freedom, Capt Kimball feels that he is entitled to the most careful consideration of the colored voters of Shawnee county.

Smith-Jones Wedding
On Wednesday evening June 12th
Miss Ruby Jane Smith, the only
daughter of Mrs. Martha E. Smith of
Carrollton, Mo., and Mr. John D. Jones
the oldest son of Capt. and Mrs. S. W.
Jones, were united in marriage at St.
Paul's A. M. E. Church at 8:30 o'clock.
Miss Smith, whi, on account of her sweet disposition is one of the most popular and best loved girls in the younger set, has made her home in Wichita for the past three years, coming here from Carrollton, Mo., shortly after graduating from Lincoln Inst. at Jefferson City, Mo.
Owing to the large number of friends these young people enjoy this was the most beautiful wedding ever witnessed in the city.
St. Paul's A. M. E. Church was beautiful with palms and flowers. Standing baskets of pink flowers and ferns made a beautiful back ground for the ceremony.
Preceding the service the Clarke-Chinnneth Orchstra rendered several beautiful selections, and Dr. A. K. Lawrence played a clarinet solo.
Just before the entrance of the bridal party Mrs. Roy Letcher in her sweet toned soprano voice charmed the audience by singing: "I Love You Truly."
As the soft strains of Mendelssohn's Wedding March were played by Miss Thinna Dixon of Hannibal, Mo., Miss Nettie Pay Oliver as maid of honor entered, wearing a handsome gown of fish colored crope de cime with a beaded bodice and accordion plented collar and tunic. With this she wore a beautiful picture hat of flesh colored Georgette crope and carried an arm bouquet of pale pink carnations with pink tulle.
X. a Laura Rawles entered next, gowned in white or gauche wearing a picture hat of white marine and carrying an arm bouquet of deep pink carnations tied with tulle.
Mr. Lester Taylor and Sam Oliver were the grown attendants.
Little Zort, J. C. Barnes, daughter of Prof. and Mrs. E. M. Barnes, as flower girl was as quietly and pretty as a little fairy in her dress of white organals like strewing roses in the path or the brittle.
Mr. Jones was attended by his brother Maurice as best man.
Mr. Jones, having been born, reared at a institution in Waltham, enjoys the association of a large number of friends of both races, a prominent K. of P., and popular in social circles.
Miss Smith, who was a picture of loveliness in her wedding gown of white crepe meteor trimmed in pearls and made round length, with her bride's veil reaching the hem of her dress, and crowned with orange blossoms and carrying a bride's bouquet of white carnations and roses mixed with blues-of-the-valley, came in alone and was met at the altar by Mr. Jones.
The impressive ring ceremony was said by Dr. J. R. Ransom, pastor of St. Paul's. During the ceremony Miss Dixon played very softly Mendelssohn's "Spring Song."
After the ceremony was performed the bridal party marched to the basement of the church, which was beautifully decorated, where the reception was held, receiving the congratulations and best wishes of their hundreds of friends.
No bride in Wichita has ever received as many beautiful and expressive presents of silver, fine linens, cut glass, and furniture as did Mrs. Jones. Mr. and Mrs. Jones will be at home to their friends after July 1st at 216 W. Central Avenue, where Mr. Jones has a beautiful home all furnished. Among the out-of-town guests for the wedding were Mrs. Myrtle C, Smith of Carrollton, Mo., Miss Thelma Dixon, Hannah, Mo., Miss Alva Fins, Independence, Kan., Miss Pearl Rhodes, Popea, Miss Mattie Jordan, Newton, *Perl Smith, Tulsa, Okla., Mr. and Mrs. Arthur King of Topeka, Miss Sue Wright, Marshall, Mo., and Mrs. Geo Payne of Newton.
On Thursday morning Mrs. Mae Neely entertained with a 1 o'clock breakfast at her home on North Mosley, honoring the members of the Smith-Jones Wedding party. A damy three course breakfast was served to Mr. and Mrs. John D. Jones, Misses Thelma Dixon, Nettie Fay Oliver, Ethel Jones, Laura Rawles, Mrs. MacNeely, Messrs Maurice Jones, Lester Taylor, Sam Oliver, and Crawford Neely.

VIAN, OKLA.
The last two weeks have been an awfully busy time with the farmers fighting General Green with the sun shining hot in their favor. Those that rose up early in the morning and fought all day long are about to come out conquerors.
The cotton crop is looking fine.
The corn crop needs rain.
The Irish potato crop is well nigh a complete failure. The potato king, Mr. Mose Howard, hasn't dug yet.
Mr. Ike Bange died June 26. His funeral was attended by Rev. S. L. Wilson at Mt. Olive Baptist Church, and the remains were placed in the Mabelle Cemetery.

Mr. Bud Bean is sure tilling mother Earth this year trying to make her yield up her fruit.

June 28 was a rally day for war savings stamps. The colored people met in mass meeting at the different school houses throughout the county and pledged themselves to take out war savings stamps according to their ability. It has been reported that Mr. Aaron Foreman has pledged himself to take out $1,000 worth of war savings stamps. Not a person over 14 years old failed to take out a stack of these stamps. Not only are the colored men loyal, but the women and children are loyal.

Owning a nice car and going joy riding is all right, but buying them on credit and giving a mortgage on a black land farm we disapprove of. The thing you want to do is to cultivate the mother earth and encourage her to yield up her fruit. With one good crop you can pay cash for your car. Don't you see the grafter is about to take this country? Enough said!
