Plaindealer

The Topeka Plaindealer Candidates for Mayor in Topeka are Now Engaged in a Still Hunt. Watch the Fur Fly in a Few Days DEFENSE SOCIETY IS SUFFICIENT DEFENSE SOCIETY IS SUFFICIENT No Necessity for Proposed New Organization. A call has been issued by a local organization in Wichita, Kansas, known as the "Constitutional Rights Association of Kansas," to meet in that city, March 25th and 26th for the purpose of completing a state organization. In conversation with a few people in Wichita one day this week, we were told that the impression of the people in Wichita was that this league was organized for the purpose of holding the $600 that is now in the hands of the Rev J R. Ransom, which was collected among the colored people and a few whites to send the Reverend to France. They say that they cannot see the necessity of organizing a state league at this time, when the legislature, now about over and the rights of the colored people have been championed through the Kansas Defense Society, and the society is still fighting for equality of the rights of the colored citizens of Kansas and the nation. These good, substantial citizens of Wichita declared that they could not see the need of another organization under the present conditions and that if everybody would get behind the Kansas Defense Society and make it THE organization, the race would be in a position to combat segregation and other obstacles thrown in our path. The following letter has the marks of a well formulated plan to induce the people who donated $600 to send Rev Ransom to France, to let the proposed organization keep the funds to promote this proposed league which was never dreamed of until the promoters found themselves in possession of some $600 or more that could not be used for the purpose for which it was collected. The letter written to a well known Winfield gentleman follows: --- "Wlchita, Kansas. Feb. 28, 1919. J W, Jackson, Box 142, Winfield, Kansas. "Dear Frined'—I am writing you this letter asking that you read carefully the enclosed circular letter and will then do the best you can toward getting the people of your city interested to the extend that a meeting of the citizens will be held for the purpose of choosing delegates to this convention. Not only will the matter of the organization of a State organization of the Constitutional Rights Association be taken up, but the question as to WHAT DISPOSITION will be made of the MONEY raised with which to defray the expenses of Rev. Hansom to the conference in Verrazelles. "I trust friend Jackson that you will tell me hear from you at an early date as to how you feel about this matter and what you can or will do toward getting the good people of your city interested in this matter. We are earnestly hoping to have a large gathering here at the time named in the direct letter and I am hoping that Winfield will send a good delegation here. "Trusting that I will hear from you soon in a card to this matter I have to remain "Respectfully yours "CAPT S. W. JONES "501 N. Water Street" --- The above letter is from the secretary of the local organization and has called Mr. Jackson's attention to the fund spoken of Now the President of the Kansas Defense Society is working hard to make the Society not only a state organization, but a national organization. As soon as we have become acquainted with the class of men and women who are capable of being at the head of organizations like the Defense Society, then we are going to make a call from several states and make the organization national in scope. Mind you, The Defense Society is not going to have any ticky politicians at the head of it, nor grafters, nor any man or woman whose bread and butter comes in a way that he or she cannot look a white man square in the face, and tell him of the outrages being perpetrated upon the colored people of this country, and we will defend the race in the presence of one white person or a thousand. The continuance of forcing colored people out of comfortable chair cars and Pollmans when reaching the state line where Jim Crowism exists, must be forced to an issue that will put an end to this outrage and the race given their rights. The class of organization that has been in existence for the last 15 years have collected thousands of dollars from the colored people to fight these obnoxious laws, but without results. Thousands of men and women have been laughed, and all that has been gotten out of the thousands spent for this purpose has been the investigation. Now the President of the Kansas Defense Society secured the passage of the enactment of the law now on the statute books of Kansas making it compulsory for the sheriff or any other officer to allow a prisoner to be taken from him and lynched by forfeiture of their office, and forever barred from holding a similar office in the state again. We also had another bill in the same legislature making the county or city liable to the amount of $5000 to tel- MOC RA PEACE TALK. CHARITY BEGINS AT HOME. passage because the members were a little tenderfooted and thought the first bill sufficient. If laws of this kind were placed upon the statute books in states where mobs run wild and lawlessness prevails, this law would be a remedy to prevent outages of this kind. Now when the Kansas Defense Society has been in existence one half as long as other organizations fighting for the rights of the race, we will have had some laws enacted and placed upon the statutes in states where they are so badly needed. The Kansas Defense Society has the solid backing of the colored press of this country, and a large majority of the honest, hard working colored people who have heard about it and who are giving their support to it before he is chartered and properly organized for they have faith in the President and the editor of The Topka Plain-delier. The trouble with a large per cent of our would be leaders, they do not know how or what to do to make a race or nation stand up protesting and defending the cause of right. They always fear they will hurt them selves personally or lose a little presence with some ordinary cheap white man who pretends to be their friend their advice to all these small kinder organizations is to get in with the Kansas Defense Society. We do not want to get any money from that organization where white men are the head of for there are a set of colored people who claim to have a superior office and standing, but who think the leadership should be invested in the white race. The reform we do not expect much from this class, and neither will they get very far in getting genuine results. There is too much talk among this class and not enough action. The Kansas Defense Society intends to assist the returning colored soldiers from France in defending their rights and also insist that the ballot be placed in the hand of our colored man in this country and that ballot be cast and counted, and further that the colored man be not denied the right of free speech. We have cited facts in this case and those who feel like assisting the great moment being carried forward by the Kansas Defense Society, will please write the Rev J. R. Ransom requesting that he return your donation back to you and then you can forward the same to the Defense Society. Many have already written us that they had requested Rev. Ransom to give their donation to the Defense Society, but in order to avoid complications or misunderstanding on the part of anyone we prefer that parties having donated money do it in the way we have here in suggested SERGT. MAJOR WOODS WRITES M and Mrs J W Wood, 2121 Grand avenue, Parsons have received a letter from their son, Charles T Wood, Sergeant Major, third Battalion, Headquarters Co, A E F, which follows: I have been so busy that I have not had the opportunity to write. I should have said I was enjoying my time to write you. "I am on a seven day leave and I can say without exaggerating a bit, that the trip has already been worth $ thousand dollars and I have been here only three days." We left camp last Tuesday. Seventy nine boys, and we are now about twenty miles from the border of Italy. We made several stops on the way here, one of the longest stops was at Difan. We stopped there about 24 hours and the boys secured tasses and saw the city. Two of our boys had too go on a time and the police decided to keep them there. France has something that keeps the soldiers battling with themselves—that is, too many saloons. Bread an wine is the chief food of most of the people, especially the poorer class. "This town, Chambery, is located in the mountains and the scenes are grand. The tops of the mountains, at least some of them, are above the clouds and the town itself is of such a big altitude that we can seemingly reach out of the hotel in which we are staying and touch the clouds. "We are stopping at one of the best hotels in town and I am speaking little of it when I use the word, "swell." Uncle Sam has made a hit with me because he has given me something that I don't believe I could have gotten if I had been in civilian life. "We visited one of the museums here yesterday and we saw some pictures that are worth several thousand dollars. One picture in particular was the picture of Benn-Hurri. The size of the picture was about thirty feet by thirty feet. We also visited some of the old buildings here, some over 600 years old. I think I will have to close but will write again just as soon as I return to camp. "Your Son, SERGT. MAJ C T WOOD" PEACE GIVES SOLDIER TIME TO THINK OF HOME AND FRIENDS.

After not having hard from me now now you surely will be surprised to hear from me now at this late date but let us hope you look at it in this old plain way last but not least. We will say since the big Mozella or 77s no longer cry through the air with no more gas scares, no more shrapnel to dodge, no more waiting for orders to move up, with the absence of the above mentioned things one has time to commose or collect himself and think of those—both relatives and friends that he has not thought of for sometime. Well Mr. Chiles I have had the distinguished pleasure of seeing two copies of your well known paper and how I enjoyed seeing is just a bit beyond my power to describe in words. Now that this little game is over, I will ask you what you think of it and fearing you will ask me the same question. I will tell you in advance that I will postpone my odeon until a later date, and truly hope that I will have the pleasure of telling you in person of every incident as far as I am in authority to inform you. Well, Mr Chiles, we are here with not the least idea when we will get home to our loved ones. May God bless you all and keep you until we meet again. P. S.

Feb 27.—We the colored people of Harrisonville wish to congratulate the Hon. Nick Chiles for stand taken in behalf of the race in the recent issue which came before the legislature of Kansas. It was he who so brilliantly and fascinatingly pleaded to members of his race through The Plaindealer for support as he convincingly approached the chiefs of the other race with his manly demeanor which set the magnetic dynamo in motion throughout Kansas, which only necessitated the push of the electric button to announce the grand victory was achieved. When the race stands in need of a defender, an emancipator, a liberator she can always with pride in such an hour of need turn to Hon. Nick Chiles as a genuine race loving man who always responds to their needs as potentially as T. R. did to the National needs. Too much commendation cannot be bestowed upon this race defender who stands peerless as he does fearless. City News Notes. Rev. and Mrs. J. H.
