MYYRTHERESTDOWN REACHES THE TOP Race Man With Pluck and Energy Wins Over Big Handicap (By Prof. Wm. H. Dawley, Kansas City, Missouri.) "There is always room for a man of force and he makes room for many."—Emerson. The great commonwealth of Kansas has developed wonderful men, who have made her the pivot in the galaxy of forty-eight brilliant stars—white men, red men, black men; John Brown, Ingalls, Bristow, Cappet, Charles Curtis, the Jupiterlike Ransom and the editorial Hercules, Nick Chiles. In the words of that indomitable editor: "What France is to Europe Kansas is to the United States. Nothing of consequence has happened in these United States for more than half a century that Kansas has not initiated or pushed to a successful conclusion." The above are simply examples taken at ran- JOHN H. HARRIS MR. THOMAS RICHARDS dom, yet in her entire roll of illustrious men hardly has she produced one more sterling, interesting and inspiring than Thomas Richards, a black man. At 8 years of age with his family he left his native state, Mississippi and came to Wyandotte, Kansas. In a year they settled in Ottawa. Here he imbibed the Kansas meaning. Poverty but dainty expresses his condition, but in addition to that he was further handicapped by an impedi-ment in his speech. If the immortal Frederick Douglass struggled with his master's dog for the crumbs that fell from the table, Richard's was wont stealthily to put molasses into one pocket of his ragged outfit and bread into the other and at opportune periods, unobserved, dipped this bread into the molasses and devoured it. Much of the time the only meat the family had was the game rabbits and the like, that the boys caught in the woods. School he attended but a few months in the year and in clothes so ragged that they furnished his nickname. Indeed one day at the monthly Friday afternoon exhibition, Richards was the star. Unable because of his defect to recite or slug a piece he was taken aside by his teacher and cautioned to return on the morrow in his best clothes. He cheerily stammered that he would. A corpulent friend had given him a whole pair of trousers. Richards ripped these up, spread the pieces on the floor, placed his frame on one leg of the material and cut it to the shape of his leg. He did the same with the other leg except that he cut it appeared at school the next day to shorter. He sewed the garment and the consternation of his teacher and the grief of his mother, but in his smiles the audience thought him made up for the occasion. Yet at times despite his optimism he would observe the superior advantages of his fellows and doubt whether it was worth the effort, whether he would ever make anything of himself. He reflected for he saw in the plains, on the hills, by the streams that nature's beauties were developed from within and this confirmed his mother's teachings: "Man, son, is made from the inside, clothes adorn but do not make him." But this good mother died when he was twelve. If he had hard times before, they were harder now, but his rugged father kept the four boys and four girls together, the youngest belly four months old. Once the father decided to get his son at least a suit of overalls, so he drove to town with his son, but did not allow him to enter the store. He brood it the room was cut and piled them up to his son on the warden. In close his parlor when a few minutes later turning to say something he found his son disheathing his tags and dwelling his new overalls in the main street. Doubled used to say "Not by the height attained but the depth from which we've come you must measure us." Having shaken the dust of Ottawa from his feet he lived in Marcelline, Mo., two years, met, and June 24, 1891 married Miss Ella Dixon. He returned to Wyandotte. At the age of 18 years he became an Odd Fellow, eleven years later a Mason, and at 39 years of age a Christian in the Baptist church under Rev. Richardson. But in 1909 he connected himself with the church of which the eloquent Rev. Eohren is pastor, where he and his family worship to this day. Having turned his hand from one thing to another, in 1898 he entered the employ of the Swift Packing Co., at $9 per week looking after their horses. Today he is second in that department drawing a salary nearly four times his initial wage. During this period of 20 years he has won and held the confidence of the Company and the esteem of the men under him. He is a race man to the backbone. Conceitious of the obstacles that confronted him, his joy is to smooth the path of worthy black men. Hence many a Negro owes his position at Swift's to Thos. Richards Within an easy range of his residence the monthly salary of men he has placed amounts to more than $1,000. When the indiscrete act of some Negro employe nettles the boss and he exclaims: "Tommy, I am going to discharge A" Richards replies: "If this is his first offense wait a little while then reason with him as you would like to be talked to if you had made a slip. Then try him again and I'm sure he'll do better." A is not discharged and impresss. Actors from the plant Mr. Richards operates a restaurant and furnishes a 25 cent dinner in these war times that cannot be duplicated elsewhere in the Twin Cities. At noon daily his patrons number 200 and his profits are substantial. His home 338 Greeley avenue shelter besides his wife, two sons, 22 and 14 years of age, also three relatives with a spare room for comp. Work is the watchword of the at the household. Mrs. Richards has moved herself more than a helpmeet and has given him inspiration almost celipiding that of his lamented mother. She does not hesitate when she thinks the occasion requires to rise at 3 a. m. and help at the restaurant. Still she finds time besides keeping her house spotlessly clean to apply to her fad, crocheting. Her house is filled with scarfs, center pieces, laces and the like. Many of which carried off first prize at bazaars. Fortunate are the guests who have seats at this well laden table. Mrs. Richards is a charming hostess and with all a devout church worker. His aged father died in 1903 at this home, where he had lived since the marriage of his son. In 1912 Mr. Richards became a stockholder in Swift & Co. Today he holds ten shares in the company—2 S. American, 4 horse, and 4 Libbey McNeal. The late President Ballentine of Oberlin college in a eulogy on Douglas affirmed "Douglas copied the best manners of the best 'people.' Thomas Richards may never have heard that sentiment, but he lives it. CORPORAL TYLER IS BACK Colored Boy Tells of Overseas and His Services. Corp. Roy E. Tyler, 1191 Lincoln street, who returned from France, arriving in Topeka Friday, is probably the first colored soldier to return to this city after seeing overseas service. Corp. Tyler was a member of the pioneer company, 516th infantry, and sailed for England with his company in September, 1918, arriving in Liverpool, from where he was sent to Brest, France. He was only there a short time when he became ill with the influenza and was invalided to the base hospital in the outskirts of London. Codporal Tyler said that the colored troops were given a rousing reception while passing thru the small French villages, and the natives took great delight in strewing their course with flowers. They were also generously served with cookies and good things to eat. He spoke highly of the treatment received at the hands of the Red Cross and Salvation Army, and said that they saved the day for many a hungry soldier had whose rations received from the army failed to come up to what they should have, due to one cause and another. A number of the men in his company married French and English girls, he said. Tyler collected a large number of souvenirs, but left most of them at headquarters when he was taken sick. Previous to entering the army he was employed as a porter in Stansfield's drug store. He has not yet decided what he will do since his return, he said. THE RACE AT LAWRENCE HOLDS A ROUSING MEETING The President of the Kansas 1 Louge Society) was called to Lawrence members of St. Luke's Church the Rev. John Adams, pastor. The people at both churches cared enthusiastic over all that is said and done. They realize that in order to have a standing in the country, they must begin to do something. The people of Lawrence are to be congratulated upon hav- TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING JANUARY 17, 1919 SOUTH SAYS GIVE NEGROES A CHANCE IN SCHOOLS Colored Soldiers Cited for Bravery Brings Appeal for Justice From Old Kentucky A dispatch from Paris tells of the decoration by the krench government of 124 colored soldiers of the United States army for "extraordinary heroesm under fire." The men were selected from others of their comrades—all having done well—because of acts of bravery that seemed to call for particular recognition. This recognition by a foreign government of the bravery of our colored soldiers will be pleasing to all American citizens, and it is confirmed by our own officers. Each colored unit that got to the front distinguished itself, and there were thousands of colored soldiers ready to do just as good work who were disappointed by the ending of the war. The belief of the Evening Post is that the excellent behavior, both at home and abroad, of our colored soldiers will have a beneficial effect upon thevised race question in the future. What the Negro needs at for such men as Rev. Jackson and Re. Adams with with them. They are both wide awake once man, and are active in social and business life in Lawrence. Rev. Adams is a talented lawyer. We would be pleased to see him hang out his shingle. BEST MUSICIANS OF THE RACE COMING HERE. Topeka Industrial Institute Will Present World Renown Artists. Mr. Clarence Cameron White, who noted violinist and Mr. T. Theodore Taylor, the young pianist, will appear in a recital at the Topeka Industrial and Educational Institute on Saturday, January 25, 1919 at 8 p.m. Mr. White has played and won great favor in all parts of the country and also in England and France. One critic has said that Clarence Cameron White unites with an admirable technique, a beautiful tone, remarkable for its breadth, fire and delicacy of expression. Mr. T. Theodore Taylor has won unstinted praise of musicians and critics alike for his sympathetic understanding, interpretation and execution of the compositions for piano The program offered is made up wholly of compositions by Negro composers, and furnishes one tea opportunity to hear and feel just what the Negro has done and is still doing in the line of fine arts. The admission is 25c. The public is cordially invited. WILSON SENDS OUT MASONIC MINUTES Hon. A. F. Wilson, grand secretary of Prince Hall Grand Lodge, A. I. & A. M. Kansas and Jurisdiction, was in the city Wednesday, sending out the minutes for the past year to the subordinate lodges. It is a nicely compiled report bound in a neat, well printed volume of some 130 or more pages. It is clear, concise and accurate, which speaks volumes for the ability of Mr. Wilson, who is M. HON A F WILSON considered to be one of the best containers in the state, a fact that opps him in a good fat clerical pos- tion in the latter department at benssan City. Kai Mr. Wilson is a strong man full of push and energy, he prides himself on doing things well. the workmanship of the book is the product of the cunning hands of The Plaindealer printers and binders and is a credit to them, the shop and the organization. Plaindealer home is not coddling but justice; justice in the courts, justice in the schools and justice in the world of business. He has proven himself a true blue American in time of war and true Americans will not forget it.—Louisville (Ky.) Dally Courler-Journal. Thus speaks the largest and best newspaper in the whole South. The Courier Journal speaks the sentiment of every true, loyal white American. But in the face of all this, out here in Kansas—the cradle of freedom, bills are being offered in the legislature denying the Colored American his rights of citizenship—the God given right purchased with his blood in "No Man's Land." However, we believe that the spirit of fairness and justice to all men still lives in Kansas and at the proper time the Sparks and Younts will be given a just rebuke at the hands of the legislature. THE CASE OF THE SOLDIERS. No Time Should Be Lost in Contributing to the Fund to Secure Justice for the Boys. The Kansas Defense Society earns requests the public to respond to the letters being sent them for financial aid for the soldiers held in prison at Leavenworth for participation in the Houston, Texas plot. We are in to win this fight along with other rights we are deprived of. We are not going to play along with this matter, we are here to do business and get results. Send in your contribution to the Kansas Defense Society. We do not need advice—we are paying lawyers for that. We will be glad to send circulars and petition blanka when requested. OFFICERS ARE ELECTED. Officers for the colored Crittenton home in Topeka were elected one day this week at a meeting of the trustees of the institution, at which a committee representing the board of trustees of the white Crittenton home offered help to bring success to the former. The new officers are: Mrs. S. I. J. Watson, president; Mrs. Ethel Johnson, vice president; Mrs. E M Guy, secretary; Mrs W. I. Jambon, corresponding secretary; Mrs. Dorothy Jones treasurer; G R Bridgfordon principal, Mrs Sarah Malone, superintendent, Mrs Marte has been with the colored Crittenton home sheep its beginning, and a vote of thanks was given for her and other charter members of the board. We hope that under the management of the new officers, the Criticism home will do more and better work. THE RACE GETS TOGETHER AT BONNER SPRINGS, KAN. President of Kansas Defense Society Addresses a Big Meeting. In response to a telegram from Rev. G. W. Brown, pastor of the Baptist church at Bonner Springs, we addressed a large and appreciative audience in behalf of the Kansas Defense Society. From what we were told after the address, the people were greatly benefited. They organized a local league with a committee of 25 to look after the interest of the colored people in that community, to fight race prejudices in Bonner Springs, and to oppose that class of white men who are against the progress of the colored race. Much effective work ought to be carried out. The colored people are waking up, and their eyes are being opened to the conditions that confront them, not only in Bonner Springs, but the entire country. The Rev. Brown presided at the meeting At the League organized, Rev. G. W. Brown was elected president, and Mr. N. L. Scott, secretary. I following is a list of those who joined and paid in money to the Kan- force Society. church in Bonner. Rev. McTassel, pastor of the A. M. E. church at Bonner Springs deserves great credit for the work he has done for the church. When he arrived there was not much of a place to worship. He had a fran's structure 25x36 attached to the part, put in electric lights, and made many other improvements. The people of Bonner Springs appreciate the work done by Rev. and Mrs. McTassel.

New Presbyterian Minister is Given a Royal Welcome. A very interesting introduction service was held at the Calvary Presbyterian church on Wednesday evening in honor of their new pastor. The church was full, and the audience appreciative. Attorney Elisha Scott was master of ceremonies, and enlivened the meeting with much wit and humor. The following spoke: Mr. Geo Hagan, Prof. N. Sawyer, Judge Jas H. Guy, Mrs. G. A. Bigbee, Hon. H. I. Monroe and Dr. J. L. Rensom. Miss Josephine Cunningham rendered two excellent instrumental solos. After all had spoken, the new pastor was presented with a Bible and hymn book—the main instruments used in the worship of God. The pastor responded, thanking the speakers for the flattering things said about him, and expressed the hope that future relationships with Topeka, both religious and secular would be highly satisfactory. The service closed with the benediction, after which all retired to the basement where refreshments were served. On the whole all that took place showed that a spirit of mutual and genuine friendship exists between pastor and people and the prediction is that great things are expected in the future. The New Pastor. Hew L. St. Geo V McCallum was born in Imaginac B W I., and educated in the schools of his native land where he taught school for about six years. He emigrated to America in 1906 finding in Boston from which place he went to New York City.

He is a fine young man, full of progress and The Plaindealer predicts a bright and useful future for he and his church in Topeka. Popular Töpekan Residing in Salt Lake City, Died from Wounds Inflicted by a Woman. Tom McAdoo, soldier and one of the most popular and widely known sporting men of the colored race, died at his home in Salt Lake City, Utah, from gunshot wounds inflicted by a woman. His remains were accompanied to this, his home town by his wife, Mrs. Elsie McAdoo and Mr. Jack Johnson, brother-in-law of the deceased. The funeral was held Wednesday afternoon from Shiloh Baptist church, under the auspices of Euclid Lodge No. 2, A. F. & A. M., the Rev. S. E. J. Watson officiated.

At the outbreak of the Spanish-American war, Mr. McAdoo, then a clerk in the employee of the Stiltenburg Clothing Co., better known as the "Hub," received and served his commission as first lieutenant going to Cuba with the Twenty-third Kansas Vol. Inf. As an army officer, Mr. McAdoo was all that could be desired and had the confidence of respect of the men under him. He was a splendid soldier, brave, courageous and manly in every act and deed and the JOHN H. HARRIS TOM McADOO precedent set by him and other race men commissioned at the time, paved the way for the boys who were selected to lead in the conflict just closed. Mr. McAdoo was born in Tennessee, and was forty-one years of age at the time of his untimely demise. He was brought to Topeka by his parents when a mere child, and it was here that he was reared and educated in the public schools, and he his many department and strict application to business, he always obtained positions of honor and Mr McAdoo possessed a generous disposition and a personality which won for him a host of warm friends, and wherever he went he was looked up on and received as just plain, honest but hearted Tom.

Watson spoke feelingly of the deceased and paid a high tribute to his manly qualities, at the close of which a large concourse of sorrowing relatives and friends wended their way to beautiful Mt. Auburn cemetery, where all that was mortal of this splendid gentleman, were consigned to earth according to the beautiful Masonic ritual of the dead. A MUSICAL TREAT.

Ile is an honest, Christian gentleman and the colored people, we hope will hase nething to regret with bim at the head of the affairs of state. He has tust returned from France, and his description of the war zone, where the sacrifices of s0 many Ilves were made on account of the misunder- standing of military officers in! sharge of the administration at Wastirgton was indeed Interesting.

The colored American will fec! bis loss more keenly than any one elre in the United States, as he wus the first and only white man who au- Yocated straight from the shoulder that the colored man was an Ametl- caa citizen, and entitled to the same rights as other peuple. Unlike mort white men he did not walt to yer ameng colored people to explain himself on this matter. He pro claimed from the mountain and house tops that all American citizens were equal before the law. We pray that some other white man will rise and follow in his footsteps, eapecially in advocating the rights of the colored Americans. We fear though that thin white man has not been bora yet, LEXINGTON, MISSOURI.

Now the big controversy seems to be in thiscity, and you know gs well as I do that if you get the fegislature once started, It is liable to pus a “Jim Crow” law, and I would ate to see that done. f believe I see Men's $1.78 warm Sweaters Men's $1.50 and $1 9S flannel large collars $1,25 shirta $1.18 ibbs Clothing Co. nw SALE at BOTH TOPEKA STORES | e e i | Extra Special Bargains! .

Hicping to hear from you by return mail, and trust- ing that you will give this your promnt attention, and extending the Season's greetings to you, , T am, Very truly yours, OSCAR M, YOUNT, Attorney and Rep. 23rd Dist. Seer ers Ue Tass Decembe: 1 4 | Mr. Oscar M. Yount, Alte Hee Representative 234 District, Galena, Kansas, My Dear Mr. Yount: Your letter of the fith inst. re- celved, and In reply will say after reading tt carefully and then noting: your position as an attorney-at-law and recently elected trom the 23d Ke Dublican District to the nest legista- ture, which convenes in 1919, [ be-| came confused, for I did not think {Kansas bad within her confines an attorney who attended the eztoola of Kansae and was taught to love and e-| spect the rights of others, so foolish or so simpte as to write or attempt to! | defend segregated laws within thie state. My advice to sou fe, that you resign your office at once, for thie letter shows that you are incompetent and not capable of representing the sentiment of Kansas, nor are you up with what the United States did n the last two years which ended in France, Novmber 11, 1918, In this rent conflict there were co'ored sol | dlers who fought side by side with thelr white brothers that o%l races rhonld have an abiding place w iere alt should be free. There are hin dreds of instances during this war where colored troops single handed captured hundreds of Gerinais and wut them to fMght, veeling that ln Bo: doing there would be no reptiles Like yourself Ife in these United States fo oppose them in enjoying all the tights and freedom for which they fought and the people thes fought vgungt You tre perfectly willtne to come here to legisiate that the Jun fand his family might attend the pub- Me schorle along with the Mexican, Italian, Chinaman, Indian, nnd nil other nationalities except the colored American who pave his ife in “No Man's Land"—"Somew here in France." 1f you hase studied history, you must know that this colored Ameri. con bas helped to make this country and Is entitled to all the rights and benefits that you or your kind enjoy. From the tone of sour letter” you ara coming here to the lesialature to en- act some law against the colored peo- ple attending the public schools and other publile places for which they are taxed to maintain, and ths colored People are subject to the same lawa that govern you, yet you want sep- erate schools for them, In fact, | sup pore you would be fn favor of sep- erate cars, seperate dining rooms, and seperate stores; but there is one place if you keep up sour statua there will be no eepnration there, and that {s where we have good reosons to be lieve Ben Tillman now 1s, and you ate advocating his doctrine, There wil he no segregation there, hut we have an {dea that when jon arrive the first thing sou will wish to do Will be to put auch Laws Into effect We cannot ree how the people of that district elected you to the lexta- lature, You either’ mlsrepresente | yourself, er you made no rpeeches, Oh! Thave tt—the flu ban was on agalnat eampalening, therefore you made no apeeches and thereby fooled the peaple. Mad they heard you, you wontd never have been electel. Kan: aut lawyers of brain and enercy are buev miking money, and usually that class of men come to the legislature at an expense and loss to themselves, but they sacrifice and come that they may help enact laws for the benefit of all the people, irrespective of racer, I wish you would get in touch with such men as Congressman Phil Camp. bell, who {s now In Washington, an¢ ask him what he thinke of you offer {ur such @ measure as you aay yoV {\ aye planning, and he will be ashamed af vou. You might write any United States senator or representative from Kansas, and thev would all be of the opinion that you were a fit subject for the mad house. Now let me sav to you, Mr Stran- ger, I do not believe that you were born and reared in Kansas, but you must be an interloner, and the only way vou think that you can get be- 3|fore the public is to ‘start something an the defenseless colored American Such an issue as vou intend to work Jon fs worn out stuff, because the bet: ter class of white people aver the ,|eauntry have avakened to their sense of duty and a-e now talking on all sides, except J the South where you helons, that the colored man must |nave his rivhts, and that he is en: titled to all the privaleger scranted ary other citizen, for by his acts in the war Just ended he has proven his 3] fevetion to the American Flag, and as a hehter on the battlefield he had ajae superiur, All black Inws that have OX} heon enacted ard apnear on the stat. —|ute backs of any state are unconstl. 3] tutional ant have only heen uoheld hecwrge the white wen silting in jud x mest were duty boun} to secre them nicht te plave ae rtain clase lik vourself, ‘The hivdvoe of the courts have naw beconie aroused to a con ciohestamty 8 bee bon tare = the ceroe ef thate doeiaona ant wot decile that all lawa evacted acalns: titers! Americors ore else texisla Se ee ei The Goversor has just returned from France, where he saw the col- ored soldier under fire and has writ- ten several articles concerning their spores in France. | Governor Allen says they were received in the public places on equality with the white man, and that he was proud to know that they were received 80 cor- dially by the French, so you need not ore pee, sign such a bill. Asx rule that class of white men that in- troduce segregated lanes and Jim Crow measures are themselves rela- tives of colored peers, and they think it is a cute trick to do auch a thing, for they feel it Is a disgrace to have colored bieod in their veins, yet two thirds of the colored pronle of this country are mixed with white blood, and we have no doubt that if you would search your family record you would find that you have a mixture of colored blood. It is the southern white man who passes these laws, and it Is he who so thoroughly mixed the two races, and he is now trying to Ket away from the kindred. We be- heve if you would study the situation thoroughly, you will change your views and decide not to offer this bill. The Kansas Defense Society, of which I am president, and which Fer resents the progressive colored ie le ot Kansas, has ttwaya and will for ever fight such measures as you speak of. You bet we have considerable in- fluence with the colored people no. onyly of Kansas, but of the entire U. 8, and they have the utmost .onf- dence in the editor of The Topera Plaindealer standing up for thelr rights There ts nothing that you could do or say that would away us from our duty of doing the right thing by our race. Consult your brother, ©, W. Sparks, and he can tell you what sledding he had trying to pans thla bill, and 1 hope you will recon sider and not come here to the leg- intature and make of jourself whet Christ rode into Jerusalem. !
