Speaking of the affair among other
things The Daily Capital sald;
“Never In our state of Kansas as
long as the black race has the equal
rights of citizenship, will there ever
be trouble between the two races”
So declared Gov. Henry J, Allen ir
his address of welcome to the return:
ing colored heroes from the eant stops
of the state house. He warmly con
gratulated George Turpin, Frank
Crith and ). B, Bryant, the three
meinbers of Fort Pillos post No 321,
G A_R,, whe turned out to act as
cotor bearers for the company of cv +
ored heroes of tho great world sar.
Then he went into the history of
slavery, its abolishment at the tlie
of the Civil war, then coming to the
present time when the color line was
drawn aside and the colored soldiers:
fought side by side with the whiter
on the different battlefields in France.
' Feeling of Harmony Hers.
“I have seen many of you fellows,”
the governor declared. “i was in Cler-
mont that rainy night when you went
thru and T saw some of you later in
the hospital after you had been wo in-
ded in battle.”
‘The opening address at the state
house was defvered by the Rev. S. E.
J Watson, pastor of the Shiloh Bap-
tlat church and chairman of the com
mittee on arrangements for the vele-
bration He pointed out the feeling
of harmony between the blacks and
whites In Kangas and the absence of
race riots that has been causing much
trouble In different parts of the coun-
try. He sald as long as there were
leaders like Governor Allen, R, R
Mer, W. A. Bibv and other men who
carry similar ideas about equality
there would be no trouble. The Gor-
Jernor was Introduced by Hon I I.
| Monroe.

Wiliam Hetm piloted his Revere car
to second place, His time was 2:17:26,
The Denver Times attempted to bar
Helm from the race, after he had
shown an exceptional burst of speed
fa a try-out Monday morning, The ex-
cuse given by the Times for barring
Helm was that he is a Negro.
For weeks before the race the
‘Times had announced the race os a
free-for-all event, open to all cars and
all drivers, Helms entry was ac-
cepted by the Times and announce-
ment wan made in its columns that
he would be one of the racera THe
was even touted as “the black Old-
field” and declared to be one of Amer-
fea’s greatest uato racer, Then, a
few hours before the start of the vce
Helm wan informed that “th color
line had been drawn.”
Helm Refused to Be Ousted.
Melm refused to be ousted {rem
the race, He started thirty seconds
behind the other twenty contestants
and passed nineteen of them on the
road, altho every effort was made hy

a good record, All auto drivers ‘now

Ae Dr, Harding Views the Park Matter
“The day of the public park, with
{tn “keep off the grars’ signs and ite
large flower beds that were to be ad:
n.ired by the public, ended about the
fame time that the old fashioned par:
Jor went out of existence and the wax
flowern were discarded,” declares Dr.
Fra Narding,
Now Doctor Harding has a plan that
probably will cause the residents of
th exclusive resident dintrict surround:
ing Central park to throw up their
hends, Her {dea fs to throw opea
the lakes of the park to the swimmers
of the clty and make the park a roat
picnsure “ground for ALL people,
rather than a beauty spot with nicely
manicured lawns, wellkept flower
beda and a few lakes containing a
idozen or so goldfish,
“Central purk belongs to tho people,
{and not just to the few resident sur:
Jrounding or any certain set of citl-
zene Gare park Is taking care of
|mero than its share of swimmers
Conditions at the swimming poot at
,|that park are deplorable.”
|. Doctor Harding explained that there
| Bere three large lakes in Central park
that are suitable for ewitaming. The
{[ncrth lake is the deepest and would
, {be the beat for the purpose and might
be ured by the better swimmers, while
the other two might be ured by the
Sounger ond unexperienced bathers
At the present time these threo lakes
are being used for nothing except ae
|the background for a half dozen
RWans ‘The quention axked by Doc-
‘itor Harding Is, “Why should about
sly swans hate the privileges dented
fo hundreds of Topekans, who pay for
Tithe upkeep of the park during this
a anid summer weather?”

Funeral services were held Saturday afternoon from the residence, the Rev. S. E. J. Watson, pastor of Silhloh Baptist church of which the deceased was a member, officiated.

Mr. James Scott, one of Shawnee county's old time farmers, and a leader in the breeding of fine jerseys, has sold his farm south of the city, and expects to leave Kansas and seek a home in some state and cille where his falling health will be improved. Mr. Scott is a hustler and knows as much if not more about jersey cattle as any man in the West. He always received a bunch of ribbons at the state fair and different stock shows. We hate to lose our old friend Jim, but since falling health has forced his removal from the state, The Plain dealer with large host of people in all sections wish for him and his editable family unbounded success anywhere they may cast their lot.

WHAT THEY ALL SAY.
Writing from Enid, Okla., under date of July 22, 1918, Mr. Roy Holt, 219 W. Cherokee street, says:
"I received your first shipment of Satin Top and am highly pleased with the results. It is all that your advertising matter claims for it. I am perfectly satisfied and am enclosing $6.20 for another order of Satin Top. I'll let you know later on about taking the agency for your wonderful preparation.
IT'S PLAIN RACE HATRED.
AND WASHINGTON IS AWARE OF SHAME IN THE LAWLESSNESS (StaT Correspondence of the Kansas (St) Star.)
Washington, July 22 - Unlike the East St Louis riots the situation here in Washington the last few days, has nothing of the economic question in it. There is no case of Negroes taking white men's work or any such feeling behind it. It has been unleashed and made race hatred turned loose in a city which is the capital of the United States. There is the element of an aftermath of the war in it, although the greater part of the riots have not been soldiers and sailors but the feeling brought home from France that the Negroes were permitted to many liberties "over there" with the French women of certain classes has shown underneath some of the disgraceful lawlessness.
The trouble here started with a series of crimes of the worst character against white women. Woman after woman was assaulted in the suburbs of the city. The police made arrests but got nohere and the crimes continued. The assailant in every case was a Negro. The better element of the Negro race here volunteered to do what they could to run down the girl's criminals but the failure to stop them fed the feeling of hatred and race antagonism. Friday a white girl was insulted by a Negro on one of the main business streets of the city. That inflamed the situation more.
Saturday night the streets were full of soldiers and sailors, many of them discharged. Also there were many Negroes on the streets, for Washington has a Negro population of more than 100,000 out of 400,000. Rows on the street started. Soldiers and sailors chipped in and made things rough for any Negroes found down town. But to blame the uniformed men for starting the trouble, as some do, is entirely wrong.
The voice let things get away from them the first night and the spark was lit that soon had a fire of race hatred burning. Sunday night, hoodlums elements of both whites and blacks cut loose and the fights grew more numerous and shooting began. But the feeling that was let loose would no down, especially as the police again showed themselves unable to move the situation. Although the whites started the first trouble, anger over the assaults on white women Nerrous became the aggressors last night. Regular fusilades of shots were heard first here and there throughout the Northwest section. Nerrous seemed inflamed with anger at anybody in uniform but while they voiced their anger at "them soldiers" they shot and pounced on anybody white and I the whites, in turn, said those "niggers" have got to have a legged and so it went.
Washington awoke today to find out how great the shame and disgrace of the lawlessness has been. There was no longer any disposition to "pooh pooh" over the danger of the situation as there had been at first.—Kansas City Star
Had the Negroes of Washington tucked their heads and stood for the beatings administered by the white "heroe" from "over there," today it would be impossible for a black man to walk the streets of Washington without being assaulted. But the tide has turned, this time the Negro fought back—moh met moh and the better element of whites who are not in sympathy with such things but have set quietly by for all these years and suffice, this be done can now see the open I will join hands with the Double and help suppress this Lodgement

had heretofore been called the impossible. The world's greatest physicians have given to civilization facts which were unheard of. In the process of this great awakening, a noted European physician prepared a purely vegetable compound for the treatment of scalp diseases in the allied armies which were found prevalent among the men on the firing lines. While at the front, an American soldier fighting with the French army was given this formula for the treatment of this seemingly unconquerable disease of the scalp. On seeking relief he brought this formula into use, which not only relieved but cured the disease and left the hair soft, straight and glossy and in a healthy condition, which so improved his appearance that he sought to aid others by placing it on the market when he returned to America, but finding the ingredients so costly, and hard to obtain, he was unable to promote its manufacture and sale. In view of this the formula was secured by the Wilson Chemical Co. and is now being manufactured on a large scale. It is the only harmless and safe preparation of its kind on the market for the treatment of short, coarse, kinky hair as well as the prevention of hair turning gray and a cure for any and all diseases of the scalp
The preparation was also named at the battle front. After the soldier had used the formula, his hair became straight, soft and glossy, and from that time on his comrades began calling him "SATIN-TOP"
