ARTHUR CAPPER HAS A CINCH Splendid Record and Square Dealing Gives Kansas Governor Lead for United States Senator. From information received from different portions of the state as to who will receive the nomination for United States senator August 6th, we are compelled to admit that there is no doubt of the nomination of Governor Capper. He has to his credit now some of the largest counties in the state and one peculiar thing about this campaign is that candidates on the county ticket, especially in Southern Kansas, are openly supporting Governor Capper for senator in order to get support for themselves. This is something that does not usually happen in a political campaign except in a general election when all the candidates were on the same ticket and the contest was with the opposition party, then it is quite natural that they would all stand together; but usually at the primaries, every fellow is for himself. The Capper forces have polled the majority of the largest precincts in Kansas and know where of they speak when they say Governor Capper's nomination is a certainty. There is plenty of Capper money to wage on his nomination but no takers. There are men who J. GOVERNOR CAPPER make a business of betting on elections but not as to their personal feeling. They make a study of the situation and law to catch some overenthusiastic friend of a candidate who has canvassed the situation, thoroughly and this is usually the way to tell the direction the winds are blowing. The Governor is called to all parts of the state to make speeches. He was in Kansas City, Sunday and received one of the greatest ovations ever given a candidate. The canvas of the women vote shows that they are almost solid for Capper. The following counties are some he has carried by a large majority: Wyandotte, Crawford, Shawnee, Lyon, Washington, Cowley, Norton, Sedgwick and Riles). Now watch our prediction. Everybody is getting into the Capper band wagon and are glad to toot the Capper hoin. There has been hundreds of strong supporters of other candidates who are deserting and coming into the Capper ranks. It is very unpopular in some sections of the state for anyone to mention any other candidate for United States senator except Gov. Capper. His two terms as governor have proven a great benefit to the people of Kansas, and now they want him in the senate where he can be able to do more. They say they've tested him and find he is the man for the place. It is not a question now of his nomination only a question of majority. COLORED NURSES TO BE USED IN ARMY CAMPS Orders Issued by War Department Makes Opening for Hundreds— Many to go Overseas. Washington, D. C., Aug. 1--The War Department authorizes a follow ing statement from E. J. Scott, special assistant to the Secretary of War: Orders were issued today by the War Department to the office of the Surgeon General, which will enable colored nurses who have been registered by the American Red Cross soctly, to render service for their own race in the army. Colored nurses will be assigned to the base hospitals now established at Camp Finstrau, Fort Bliss Kansas; Camp Grant, Rockford Illinois; Camp Dodge Bay Molines Iowa; Camp Taylor, Louisville, Ky.; Camp Sherman, Chillit. cothe, Ohio and Camp Dix, Wrightstown, N. J. At these camps a total of about 38,000 colored troops are stationed. General Pershing has asked by cable whether the services of colored nurses can be utilized to advantage among the Ameri- can Expeditionary Force. MR. WILL JOHNS A CANDIDATE. Popular Lawrence Business Man is a Candidate for Sheriff. Mr. Will Johns, the popular merchant and meat market man, of Lawrence, is a candidate for sheriff of Douglas county, subject to the Republican primaries August 6th Mr. Johns says there is no doubt of his nomination, that he has secured the pledges of hundreds of business and laboring men and farmers which assures him of the nomination. He is a young man, was reared in Douglas county and thinks it is his time now to land the plum. He has always worked for the party in season and out of season and sees no reason why he should not be nominated. He says he is under many obligations to the colored farmers who are giving him their support (Advt.) EDITOR'S NOTES. --- Rev. T W Greene, Jr., pastor of the A, M 12, church, Parsons, is completing their $15,000 church. The work on the second story is now under way. The church staged a rally between the Army and Navy from which several thousand dollars were realized in that way. Everybody is in love with Rev Greene and its work. When completed the building will be modern in every respect. ```markdown ``` While in Ft. Scott we saw a photo- graph of the 92d division soldiers and in the group were four French offi- cers who seemed to be well satisfied and at ease with their colored brothers. We wonder if we could say as much for our American offi- cers? Mr. and Mrs. Adam Darkis, of Parsons have heard from their son- law, Private Hlghtower, who is now in France. Mr. S. Daniel, popular plasterer and contractor of Parsons, is doin- great work and has contracted and completed over 8,000 yards of work during the last year and has on hand 4,000 yards to complete. He says it is hard to find young colored men to stick to the job. --- The colored people can be proud of three ministers, Rev. J. R. Ransom, of Wichita; Holines and Geo McNeal, of Kansas City. These men are doing more to build up the race than all the other preachers combined. They are doing constructive work and if we had ten more ministers like these located in different parts of the state taking up race enterprises, the race would progress more rapidly. --- Our many renders will be surprised and pleased to learn that Miss Victory Nestfield, popular teacher in the public schools at Chetopa, was recently married to Mr. James W. Wright who is now training for service at Western University, taking electrical engineering. Mrs. Wright has joined him and will be there until he goes over sens. --- We were in error in writing of Richmond, Mo., when we made the statement that Richmond was in need of a colored physician. Dr. W. G. Combs is located there. He is a practicing physician and has been in the town for a number of years, is a graduate of Meharry Medical college. We cannot see how we overlooked to mention him as he is one of our old subscribers and a personal friend and we wish to apologise to the Doctor and his excellent wife for the oversight. --- INSTALLATION SERVICES PRESIDENT HEARS THE PLAINDEALER PRESIDENT HEARS THE PLAINDEALER Letter Brings Strong Appeal from the White House Against Lynching. Topeka, Kan, June 6, 1918 Mr. J. P. Tumulty, Private Secy. to the President, Washington, D. C., U. S. A., My Dear Mr. Secretary: I am sending a letter to President Wilson, registered and marked "personal" to which your attention is called and we hope you will bring it to the notice of the President and ask him to give his public expression upon the subject matter propounded to Lim which would have effect upon the American people and result in much good. It is your indispensable duty as a devout Christian Catholic to carry out the wishes of Pope Plus X. You will find here a copy of some Resolutions sent to Pope Plus X at Rome in the year of '03 in which we called his attention to some of the outrages committed upon colored people in this country; and his reply to the answer Now we have been informed that it is through you that his views reach the American people. We learned reckons that the President gave an expression that he did not know these outrages were being perpetrated in this country against the colored people and that he would give the matter proper consideration. As you are looked upon as one of those faithful adherents of true Catholicism and one who believes in the late Pope Plus X and from what we know of the Catholics of this country we believe that we will hear from you on the subject matter of these matters and we pray that the spirit of the late Pope Plus X will hover over you in such a manner that you will feel it is your rightful duty to give this down-trodden race proper consideration as there are a number of colored Catholics numbered among them. Very truly yours, --- A few days after sending the above letter to Mr. Tumulty, we received the following reply from that gentleman, who to our surprise proved to be very prompt: Mr Tumulty's Reply. White House, Washinlton, D. C. June 10, 1315. My Dear Sh: I have your letter of June 6th, with enclosure, which I shall bring to the attention of the President as you request. Sincerely yours, J. P. TUMULTY, Secretary to the President Mr. Nick Chiles, The Plaindealer, Topeka, Kansas. --- President Wilson Speaks Out. We are convinced that through Mr. Tumulty's action in the matter, the President for the first time unbosomed himself and gave to the American people an outspoken expression against the damnable evil of lynching as prayed for in our letter. President Wilson said: "My Fellow Countrymen: I take the liberty of addressing you upon a subject which vitally affects the honor of the Nation and the very character and integrity of our institutions that I trust you will think me justified in speaking very plainly about it. Loyalty Can't Justify Mohs. "I allude to the mob spirit which recently here and there very frequently has shown its head amongst us, not in any single region, but in many and widely separated parts of the country. There have been many lynchings, and every one of them has been a blot at the heart of ordered law and humane justice. "No man who loves America, no man who really cares for her fame and honor and character or who is truly loyal to her institutions, can justify mob action while the courts of justice are open and the governments of the states and the Nation are ready and able to do their duty. "We are at this very moment fighting lawless passion. Germany has outlawed herself among the nations because she has disregarded the sacred obligations of law and has made lynchers of her armies. Lynchers emulate her disgraceful example. I, for my part, am eager to see every community in America rise above that level, with pride and a fixed resolution which no man or set of men can afford to disperse. A Betrayer of Country. "We proudly claim to be the champion of democracy. If we really护 in deed and in truth, let us see to it that we do not discredit our own. We plainly that every American who takes part in the action of a moot gives any sort of countenance is no true son of this great democracy, but its betrayer and does more to discredit it her by that single disloyalty to her standards of law and of right than the words of her statesmen or of the sacrifices of her heroic boys in the trenches can do to make suffering peoples believe her to be their savior. How shall we recommend democracy to acceptance of other peoples if we disgrace our own by proving that it is, after all, no protection to the weak? "Every mob contributes to German lies about the United States what her most gifted liars cannot improve upon by the way of calumny. They can at least say that such things cannot happen in Germany except in times of revolution, when law is swept away. Aak Evil Be Ended. "I therefore very earnestly and solemnly beg that the governors of all the states the law officers of every community, and above all, the men and women of every community in the United States, all who revere America and wish to keep her name without stain or reproach, will cooperate—not passively merely, but actively and watchfully to make an end of this disgraceful evil. It can not live where the community does not countenance it. "I have called upon the Nation to put its great energy into this war, and it has responded—responded with a spirit and a genius for action that has thrilled the world. I now call upon it, upon its men and women everywhere, to see to it that its laws are kept inviolate, is fame untarnished." "Let us show our utter contempt for the things that have made this war hideous among the wars of history by showing how those who loot liberty and tight, and justice and are willing to lay down their lives for them upon foreign fields stand ready, also, to illustrate to all mankind their loyalty to the things at home when they wish to see established every where as a blessing and protection to the peoples who have never known the privileges of liberty and self government "I can never accept any man as a champion of liberty, either at our selves or for the world, who does not revere and obey the laws of our own beloved land, whose laws we ourselves have made. He has adopted the standards of the enemies of his country, whom he affects to despise. "WOODROW WILSON WALTER A. LAYTON OSBORNE, KANSAS M. REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE FOR LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR Speaking of the candidacy of Hon. Walter A. Layton for lieutenant governor, The Outborne farmer sets forth his grounds for receiving the suffrage of the voters of Kansas In the following language: "There are numerous reasons why W. A. Layton, of Osborne county should be nominated for lieutenant governor. He has served two terms in the lower house. The last session he was speaker pro term. He is thoroughly familiar with the way legislation is handled, from the time a bill is introduced, passes through the hands of the committee and finally gets before the law making body. He has been thoroughly trained to preside over a body of law makers. He is full of enthusiasm and a hard worker and thorough in everything he undertakes. The state can spare him from his other activities to serve as lieutenant governor. His opponent, Adjutant General C. S. Huffman, a most worthy and capable man, cannot be spared from his grave duties at the head of the military affairs of the state. Mr. Huffman is needed right where he is, and it is a part of wisdom and for the good of the state to keep him there. These are perilous times and men of Mr. Huffman's military ability are hard to find. If Mr. Layton were less competent or less fitted for the position of presiding officer of the senate, there might be some profit in taking Mr. Huffman away from his present duties and making him lieutenant governor." O'Borraine Farmer Mr. Layton writing to this paper says that he wants the colored people to know he is and always has been their friend and that he voted "no" on every bill offered in the legislature two years ago for the segregation of colored children in the public schools of free Kansas. Adri ORTH. COO JAVON JAVON MR. W. R. SMITH, tried, trained and efficient State Printer, whose keen forsight and excellent business ability saved thousands of dollars to the patrons of our public schools. Mr. Smith has given us better and cheaper text books, besides bringing the state's publishing house up to the highest point of efficiency.. Don't follow an inexperienced kid, but keep a man on the job who deliver the goods. Smith is a friend of the race and can be depended upon. INDEPENDENCE, KAN The colored boys of Independence that are to leave for Camp Funston were highly entertained by Mrs. and Mr. Cleon Fluellen of 1000 E. Johnson by a lawn party. There were 100 guests present and 18 boys that are to go. The yard was very beautifully decorated with flags and red, white, and blue lanterns. A delightful lunch was also served and a nice little card was given to each of the boys as a token of remembrance by the hosters, Mrs. C. Fluellen. Many words of encouragement were given to the boys by different ones present, and all the boys seemed to be of good cheer and ready and willing to go and do their share as citizens. RICHMOND. MO. Mr. Mark Johnson, who has been seriously ill for several weeks, died at his home last Saturday night. He leaves a wife and three children. Funeral services were conducted under the auspices of the Keystone Lodge. The community joins in extending sympathy. Mesdames Jones and Connelly of Lawrence and Mrs. Strange of Kansas City are here at the bed-side of Mrs. Rachel Wilson, who is seriously ill. Mrs. Ida Schwich of Columbia is visiting the home of Mr. and Mrs. Green Wright. Company B of the A. M. E. Church had an outing at St. Clouds Springs, and a large number took advantage of a day in the woods. The Baptist church held their rally last Sunday and basket dinner. Amount raised $180. Mr. W. M. Jacobs has returned from Warrendburg, where he presided over the Sunday school convention of the C. M. E. church. Mr. McGleston Jackson has been indisposed for several days with tonsilitis. Mrs. Carrie Boldridge has returned home after spending several weeks out west. Mrs. Bunt More and Mrs. Forest Smith of Kansas City are the guests of Mrs. Rose Mainer. The following boys will leave for Camp Funston Thursday; Willard Blackwell, Irving Gabb, Jesse Gibbs, Fletcher Ewing. We wish them good luck. Mrs. W. M. Jacobs spent Friday in Carrollton with her music class. The Sunday school hour of the C. M. E. church has changed to 2:30 in the afternoon, and it is honored that the parents will send the children and help to bring these boys from the street and base ball grounds. Mrs. Amelia Robinson has returned from a visit to friends in Liberty and Kansas City. Mrs. Bessie Goode spent the week end in Kansas City. Some one entered the café of Mr. Harris and robbed it of $32 last Saturday night. Mrs. Lillie Lester and daughter Mrs. Ella F. Brooks, N. Little Rock, Ark., who were guests of Mr. and Mrs P. G. Fields, 1213 Wyoming St., Kansas City, Mo. have returned home. Mr. and Mrs. Wyatt Fields entertained at dinner Sunday evening, July 14, in honor of Mrs. L. Lester and Ella, and granddaughter Carrie Brooks, accompanied by Mr. Leroy Thomas of North Little Rock, Ark. Also their niece Carrie and nephew Frank Fields of this city. Price $1.0 Per Year A NEIGHBOR INDORSES HON. TOM D. SMITH The PlaindealerStenographer Speaks from a "Next Door" Viewpoint. Just now every white man has a handshake and a pleasant smile for the black man or woman, and all because the Republican primaries will be held Tuesday, Aug. 6th. He wants an office and through your suffrage he expects to realize a much cherished hope and ambition. But when it is all over, his proud head is elevated and he knows you not. Humiliating things may be heaped upon the race, but he sees not and cares less. Why should he? He enjoys every right guaranteed by the Constitution, his family is in luxury and ease, and by the time the persons of color are needed again, they will have forgotten, and again "fall" for his smile and hearty handshake. Let's use a little judgment in the selection of men for office and make an effort to side-step the "election day" friend. Of the many candidates for various offices, the selection of none should receive more care than that of attorney general. It has to do with matters of vital importance to the race, and we should not rush in headlong and vote for a man simply because he smiles and pats us upon the back. In the race for this important office, I ask all to consider the candidate of Hon. Tom D. Smith, of Hawaii. He is the fairest, squared white man it has been my good fortune to know—the son of a Civil War veteran, and he would not suffer to see such violent plays as "The Clansman," "Birth of a Nation," etc., enter this state for to do so would be disregarding those principles for which his patriotic father offered his life. Born, reared and educated in Brown county, he was a class-mate of my mother, who says that he is the same kind, sympathetic Tom D. Smith, that he was a little less than forty years ago. Mr. Tom D. Smith has gone out of his way to favor colored people, and that too before he ever dreamed of running for office; but he is too modest to parade what he feels is a duty, in order to secure your suffrage. It is in Tom D. Smith's bones to accord the colored race an equal chance and help them JOHN H. BURKE HON. TOM D. SMITH. at every opportunity, and whether he is elected attorney general of this state, or not, he will be the same Tom D. Smith, with the same kindly feeling and out-stretched hand to assist in elevating the race collectively and individually, and he does it without crying aloud from the house-tops that people may see that he has cast a crumb to the man "farthest down." I shall never forget several years ago when he defied a Nebraska mob that sneaked across the line and stormed the Brown county jail in an attempt to lynch a colored man, Tom D. Smith was the first man to come to the rescue of the unfortunate fellow, and it was his stern voice that informed the leaders that an attempt to remove the prisoner meant death to the first man who dared. He meant every word of it and like the cowards that they were, the posse scurried back into their own state and the man was given a fair trial before a court of justice. I cannot recall the day when I did not know Mr Tom D. Smith and the acquaintance has been and is now a source of pleasure; and I feel that I owe it to my race to familiarize them with facts concerning a tried true friend In a letter from Hon. Dennis A. Jones, popular Leavenworth attorney, he says: "I note with pleasure what you said of Tom D. Smith's candidacy a few weeks ago, and concur in all that you say. When the votes are counted on the 6th, mine will be among those cast for Tom D. Smith." The primaries will be held Tuesday, Aug. 6, and I pray that the race will not hesitate to support a man who is big enough and broad enough to protect us in our rights under any and all circumstances.

Gilbert Walker, Galveston, Texas. The Venerable E. Thomas Demby, Archdeacon of the Episcopal Church of Tennessee, has been elected Suffragan Bishop for colored work in the Diocese of Arkansas and in the Province of the South-West. His election has recently been confirmed, and the Presiding Bishop will probably take order for the consecration some time in September. Archdeacon Demby will be the first colored Bishop for the Church in the United States, the late Bishops Holly and Ferguson having been Bishops of Haiti and Liberia, respectively. All churchmen, and especially all colored churchmen, are looking forward with great joy and much prayer to the consecration of this eminent Priest. His territory will be large, and the work will be hard and sacrificial, but Archdeacon Demby will bring to his labors a heart full of zeal, a ripe experience, fine scholarship, and a most splendid Christian character. The church has taken a great step in advance in her mission to colored people and has again given evidence of Divine guidance by calling to the Episcopate this well-qualified gentleman, and priest. RR. HAZELL AT CALVARY PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH. The pastor elect, Rev. J. A. Thos. Hazell, S. T. B.; of the People's Presbyterian church, Denver, Colo., preached two extraordinarily strong sermons last Sabbath to large and appreciative audiences at the Calvary Presbyterian church. Many of the slater churches were well represented by the presence of some of their notable parishioners. Attorney Guy and wife being among the number with Dr. M. L. Ross. The Doctor is not only a speaker of unusual oratory and profundity of thought but a convincing logician who rivals his subject on the minds of the people and magnetizes the audience to the personality of the preacher as he declares the word of God. Monday night in spite of a number of counter attractions Dr. J. A. Thos. Hazell delivered one of his famous lectures from the subject, "Hard facts Darker People Should Know" to an audience made up of the elite of Topeka. Mr. Geo Hagan, elder of the church named Prof. Sawyer, who in choice words introduced the speaker of the evening. For more than two hours the lecturer intoxicated the pews with literary, historical and racial stuff that wonderfully baptized the people with information and inspiration. Everybody went away fully convinced that the Doctor is the "man of the hour" for the Presbyterian church and an indispensible asset to the city of Topeka. His sermon topics for Sunday Aug. 4th are as follows: 11 a. m., "The Tragedy of Inexcusible Excuse." 8 p. m., "No Room for Christ." This public is cordially invited to hear the speaker The funeral of William J. Randolph was held Friday of last week from Stonecrest's chapel. Mr. Randolph was an old time barber having refried several years ago. He was well and favorably known throughout the state, and had many good, warm personal friends among both races. Mr Randolph had been ill only a few hours when the summons came. Peace be to his ashes. (First Published in The Topeka Plaindealer Aug 2, 1918) State of Kansas, Shawnee County. In the matter of the estate of William Randolph, deceased, late of Shawnee County, Kansas. NOTICE OF APPOINTMENT Notice is hereby given that on the 26th day of July, A. D., 1918, the undersigned war, by the Probate Court of Shawnee County, Kansas has appointed administrator of the state of William Randolph, late of Shawnee County, deceased. All parties interested in said estate will take notice and govern themselves accordingly. SARAH F. MALONE, Administrator. Col. Ed. C. Little, congressman from the Second district is too busy looking after the affairs of this great government at Washington to return to the state to defend himself in a political campaign. As a reason for keeping him on the job he asks that you glance at his record to which he points with pride. Col. Little is also a soldier as well as a statesman, having been one of the men who led the Fighting Twentleth in the Ph., pines. A Few Facts. In 1911 when we had $500 majority, my opponent with his $3009 assessment, wrecked the party and gave the Democrats the district for three terms, which I carried by 1000 majority, though my present opponent fought out a big fight in the supreme court to beat me out of the nomination. Little knocked out a provision (Cong. Rec. April 8, 1918) that America should pay Germany for damages done by our troops, knocked out a clause (Cong. Rec. 1,117, April 14 and 18) that would have allowed Villa to enlist men here to fight us. Thus runs his record thru, hout the two years he has been in congress. It has been one great achievement after another which time and very limited space prevent a more extensive review of Mr. Little's record. —Advertisement. WALTER EVAN5 WRITES OF MORGAN FOR GOV-RNOR Hutchinson, Kan, June 17, 1918. My Dear Friend: I apprehend that you have read in the papers or someone has told you that W. Y. Morgan, of Hutchinson, is a candidate for the Republican nomination for Governor. I don't want you to accuse me of trying to dictate to you as to whom you shall vote for, but as I live in Hutchinson, I feel that it is my duty to tell our people something about Mr. Morgan. First, he is a Christian gentleman, believes in fairness to all. I have known him for more than fifteen years. During that time, I do not recall once of his ever refusing to befriend our people when he had an opportunity to do so. His record in the legislature speaks for itself as to his fairness to our people. Mr. Morgan is now asking an office that will place him in a position where he can be of service to our race. He is asking that you elect him Governor, which will place him where he can prove his loyalty to bus. I assure you that the colored people of Kansas will never have any cause to regret having voted for Morgan. I trust that you will vote on the 6th of August, and that you will be able to see your way clear to vote for W. Y. Morgan for Governor. Always a Republican—not one of these follows always changing from one party to another, and electing him Governor will not swell his head. He will be pleased to meet you at any time. W. W. EVANS.

We had the pleasure of visiting Liberty, Mo. over Sunday and attended services at the A. M. E. church, of which Rev. William Alexander is pastor. They have a high-class, polished, educated minister and we hope to see him at some place like Omaha, St. Paul or St. Louis for he is a man much needed in such cities and we were surprised that he was sent to so small a place as Liberty. We spent the day in the town in company with Mrs. Antis Garrett, of Kansas City, and were the guests of Prof. and Mrs. Jos. A. Gay. Prof. Gay is principal of the schools of Liberty and is certainly an energetic and progressive young man. He owns a beautiful bungalow in a good location and raises chickens galore and also has several hogs and a fine garden. He is highly respected by the school board and it was through his school board that the colored people secured a fine school building, modern in every particular. We were surprised to find at Liberty, which is an ex-slave town, such a nice school building and we must give the white people of Liberty credit for having the confidence in Prof. Gay as to give the colored people such a building as they have. He is interested in his race and fought hard to get everything for the colored children that was provided for the whites. We certainly enjoyed eating spring chicken and country vegetables, ice cream, lemon pie and in fact everything that heart could wish, for the Gays seem to have no knowledge of what is meant by the word, "Hooverize." Mrs. Garrett has visited often in Liberty and has many friends and acquaintances in the town and she enjoyed the visit very much. Her may friends want her to come and stay a month that she may get around to see them all. Hon. John M. Wright and Leonard King spent Sunday at Camp Funston. Mrs. Geo. D. Ramey is in Great Bend visiting her husband's parents, Rev. and Mrs. J. H. Ramey. Miss Martharne Hicks spent the week end in Lawrence.

Vim and Vigor Hair Promoter Prominent Farmer Urges His Nomination from Fourth District. Eskridge, Kan., July 20, 1918. Mr. Nick Chiles, Toneka, Kan. Mr. Nick Chiles, Topkapi, Kau. Dear Sir:—In reply to yours of the 17th it gives me pleasure to say that I have known Sen. C. E. Carroll for a number of years, and he has always stood for a square deal for every man, regardless of his color or station in life. He was reared here in Wabaunsee county and attended the public schools together with members of our race; has grown up side by side with us, and knows our most urgent needs; is broad and courageous enough to champion our cause in a fearless, aggressive, intelligent manner that is conducive of the best results. The son of a Union soldier, he has the principles of liberty instilled in him from birth, and his uncompromising fight for what is right and just has won for him the staunch friendship of every race loving negro in Wabaunsee county. Senator Carroll is one of the most brilliant attorneys in this section of Kansas, and his record in the last session of the legislature is one that we can well be proud of. It was through his alertness and judicious management that the Separate School Bill met its death. Always courteous, obliging, and attentive, we could have no abler representative from this district, and the Race no truer friend. I sincerely trust that every colored voter in this district who has the best interests of the Race at heart will go to the primary election in August and cast his or her vote for the Hon. C. E. Carroll for congressman. I am. EVANS A CANDIDATE. Out at Hutchinson, Walter, W. Evans is a candidate for justice on the peace. Evans is a splendid fellow, a fighter for his race and he deserves the vote of every colored man and woman in that city. They should throw off their coats and bombard the white people and get them to support their candidate. This thing of Negroes falling on their faces about white candidates should be equalled up, and the white man who can't see his way clear to vote for a colored man, go after him and if case you can't reach him direct, knife his candidate. Stand by your guns." When in Excelsior Springs, Mo., the great health resort, stop at the Albany Hotel. H. B.

The Garden City Band led the march, followed by the home guards and the war committee. A large crowd gathered in the street to cheer the boys. Hon. Judge Hutchinson made the address for the war committee. Rev. Haywood, pastor of the A. M. E. Church, gave farewell remarks. Rev. Thomas of Second Baptist Church presented the boys with mementos purchased by the mission circle.

Carnevit at Port Wagner; the 21st and 25th Infantry and the 9th and 10th Cavalry at El Caney and San Juan in Cuba and in the Philippines; and the foot of the 10th Cavalry at Carrizal, Mexico. We point with pride to the achievements of our soldiers, for we have never had a traitor in our ranks and not a blot of cowardice upon our smallest record, and the records show fewer deserters from the ranks.
