The Topeka Plaindealer --- A HALF CENTURY OF NEGRO PROGRESS NEGROES CELEBRATE EMANCIPATION DAY Lincoln Institute Campus Scene of One of Greatest Occasions in the History of Missouri. September 22d the Negroes of Jefferson City and Lincoln Institute held what is known as Emancipation celebration which as the name indicates, commemorates their emancipation from slavery. From a very early hour in the morning the student body and faculty of Lincoln Institute were out on the campus making preparations for the parade, which was the spectacular part of the day's celebration. As the parade moved through the city streets it met with hearty applause from the bystanders. The order of march was as follows. Citizens marching, Lincoln Institute cadets accompanied by Lincoln Institute band several well trimmed automobiles in which rode promenade Negro citizens, Jefferson City Neary band Lincoln Institute motel school, little girls in a 100 per cent American float with little Miss Louise Richardson oldest daughter of Predeed Richardson, as Miss Liberty, the Predeed's car and two cars in which role members of the Lincoln Institute adults float of children from the Washington Public schools the Thousand Sisters who sang national and popular songs, and then a most interesting feature of the parade nature, a float cleverly arranged to give a fair idea of the work done by the boss and girls of Lincoln Institute in the mechanical, carpentry, home economics, nursing training and agricultural departments. Then another very interesting and pathetic feature was a carriage in which rode an 1920 Negro who lives at the old folk home which is being maintained by the civic league, a Negro organization of the city. Means Daniel and Brooks, of Lincoln Institute, and Mr. Pace, a veteran of the Civil War, acted as marshal. Those responsible for the celebration dictum any credit or responsibility for the circulars distributed along the line of the parade. We take measure in quoting the followings from the circular: Historical Achievements of the Race During Fifty Years of Freedom: 1649 - Population 20 slaves, 10 wealth 1832 Population, 4000 000 set free, no wealth 1914 Population, 12 500 000, wealth $11 500 000 The world's greatest statesmen, and father of democracy, Thomas Jefferson said "as slaves, no such looters was ever known to their master as the Negro during his two hundred and forty years of slavery in this country. When the English soldiers in 1750 were massacrecing the Americans in Virginia and were on their way to Jefferson's home to slay his men, they called out two hundred and fifty of his slaves and placed them in their hands and told them to set them free. But instead of attacking their masters they defended them with their lives. Mr Jefferson in his diaries tells how they fought the English soldiers back while others pushed to the home and escaped. Mrs Jefferson and her children to a place of safety. She at this time being sleek and her child only two weeks old made it necessary to knock out the window still in order to remove her roost upon the porch of the bed He Jefferson was absent, but in the evening as it was his custom, he covered the lane leading up to his home and was shocked greatly on the drizzly days of his slaves lying head above the way. They had given their lives defending his home. He told them one faithful slave came up to them with one of his hands shut of the crescent "Missus and de child on run of massa come I show you what day" and the same faithful people are still here, but times have changed since the Emancipation. In the 21st years of the Negro slaves who ever heard of one of them insulting a white woman, or any attempt at rape, but since the Civil War mob law a Negro has become popular to treat with the whites. Think or not within the last fifty-two years to less than 1872 Negroes have been forced of which 52 women paid the poverty of mob violence. There is now in the history of the world out bondage that has shown remarkable progress on par with that of the American Negro. The three years ago we were without one penny, and four months without homes and ignorance but today we control over $1,250,000 worth of real and legal property in this country in our 625,000 school children in the public schools. We have deceived our citizens quite lately per cent. We take 28,000 school teachers and 1,000 hundred and slaves three new laws. 116 private High schools 116 lawyers and 167 wholesalers. Statistics show that we have 2,625 physicians and 1,361 manufac-tors. 30 banks. 11,347 retail met centers. There are 4,000 ministers sound of this ablest in the United States and in the Civil War we were 300,800 strong while in the late war we were 400,000 to the fore with 1,600 officers commissioned by the Federal Government. We bought $300,000,000 in Liberty Bonds and worked in the Red Cross reporting not a single slacker during the entire four years. We broke the Hindenberg Line at the 11th month, 11th day and 11th hour, was the nearest tothe German front when the call was made by the signing of the armistice. We sacrificed 50,000 men for the cause of Liberty and Freedom while our brothers and our sisters were lynched and burned here at home. We are not the Proletarians so commonly referred to in this country but decent, respectable citizens asking nothing but common justice for all clans irrespective of race color or previous conditions Jesus Christ had wholly hair, and in Daniel 7th Chap. 9th and 10th verses you will find this verified. We are the only people in the world able to prove our origin by the Bible. Herodotus the Greek Historian, knew that we ruled Egypt that 22 Ethiopian kingdoms formed the dynasty with Menes as the first. He tells that civilization started in the great kingdom of Ethiopia and that we built Babylon Thebes and Memphis, three of the finest cities that were ever built in the world. We built the pyramids and the art of the Ethiopian exeels all others even unto today. HE STARTED WITH THE FIRST ISSUE OF THE PAPER Re. J Brown Remits for Twentient Time to The Plaindealer—He's a Tried, True Friend It is with pride that we quote a letter from our tried true friend the Rev. K. M. Brown, for many years a pastor in Topeka and well and favourably known throughout Kansas and the West. Rev. Brown owns valuable property in Topeka, including a fenced area the city, and some day when he thieves of the land of orange blossoms will no doubt return to do all among those who love, honor and respect him. Rev Brown's letter follows. Oakland Calif. Sept 18 1911 "Mr. Dear Mr. Chiles "Kindly find order for $1 50, my annual subscription to The Phlaidealer. I think this makes about my 20th remittance, without a single omission. I have become so thoroughly accustomed to awaiting The Plaindale for news from the Middle West and home, until now I would hardly know how to dispense with its weekly message. I appreciate your earnest efforts and faithful service for the nice and humanity. "Quite sure you will be interested to know that I have been reassigned for the fifth year to First A. M. E. Church Oakland. Our conference just closed in Paidellana, was indeed and in truth the greatest ever held on the Coast. Membership has almost doubled in last few years. Total conference attendees taught nearly $6500 Educational collection at conference reached over $1000. Total for education nearly $800. Donor money went about $26 cents per point. A ten years ago Women's Missions was hardly noticeable. This conference they brought more than $450. They will bring one thousand over the year. One thousand dollars will be brought by the churches now year or the cause of education. This conference is soon destined to be known no more as one of the thirty conferences of African Methodism. Our Oakland work has made a great move toward in the last few years. Our funnel activities last year reached more than $7000. The membership now (including probationers) has gone above the 500 mark. Hundreds of good Southern people are pouring into California; many joining the A M I church and her forces is bright. After having a modern and well equipped home furnished myself with families with all beddons paid, we were then the beautiful sum of $1000 sales stipulated with $1100 paid at conference time. This has been turning to say of donations through the year: "Returning from conference, before reaching home a grand reception had been obtained and as an expression of their good blessing over my return, the special board voluntarily placed a sales for the present year at $500 or month house with all their dentures furnished, and a brand new Pond Nail kept up for my use. I can hardly imagine myself and my work being thus so highly appreciated. But we give our blessed Musk to the artist and shall do our best to be worth every dollar of it to the work colleague." The November rally will no doubt be a generous dollar of personage and machine debt, and we shall look forward to see the origin and the establishment of a second church in west Omaha and Mrs Brown and the house quite well. The house will be planted.

OCTOBER, 3, 1919. OMAHA ADDS TO THE SHAME AND DISGRACE OF WHITE AMERICA The Omaha rioting and the lynch- ing and burning of a colored man charged with committing a benoni- crine upon a 19 year-old white girl in the presence of her escort who was a cripple, is violidly told in the press dispatches and furnished an ex- cuse for the destruction of multis of dollars worth of property and the loss of life. As usual, the injured parties identified (?) the man held by the police as being the guilty party. The victims state that on return- ing from a show, they were acco- bied by a Negro, who at the point of a gun, robbed the young lady's escort of his valuables, then proceeded to carry the girl to the ever hands and tendy ravine, where he held a gun on her cripple companion while he as- guired the girl How does this sound to you? To any fair, clear minded man of woman, it is unqualified by the most richly colored fairy tale ever put in print. It's just impossible for such a tale to have been committed under the circumstances ascribed by the vietnamese. We do not know how this cripple escort got to the rainy while the brute was carrying the girl if he did not limp on behind them unless he sat down and waited until the man found a desired spot to leave the girl and then return and carry him there. This is the story of the crime as gleaned from the newspapers and said to have been obtained by them from the vietnamese. A strange thing about these assaults, the victims are never of the wealthy class of people. But they come from the ranks of those who have to compete with the Negro in the fight for bread, and always in a city or community where the colony race is prosperous; buying and owning nice homes and living as good and in many instances, better than the whites who are compelled to toll. There seems to have been several crimes against women charged to Negroes both in Omaha and across the River in Council Bluffs, Iowa. The returning of soldiers to different localities since the war is the cause of many crimes being committed and happens that most of the soldiers returning to that section are white in fact ninety nine and one half percent are white. It is an easy matter for white men to paint up and disguise as colored to commit such an offense it being no trouble whatever to make the officers and the public believe it to be the work of a colored man, so those who have the enforcement of the laws entrusted to them start out and pick up any man of color that is friendly or does not stand so well and make him the go The American white man is sitting away down in the scale of a gravity. The eyes of outraged Russians and depraved Turkey are standing upright, and taking lessons from the citizens of the "Land of the Free" and Home of the Brave, who herded to the world that school houses dotted every hill top, and that justice is meted out alike to all men. So incensed were the American white people at Germany's outrages that they sent nearly three million of soldiers to wreak vengeance upon the German Empire. Now they are returning to find that white America is doing the same thing that they were overseas to put down Rioting, murdering, stealing bank robbing, destroying public property, lynching and burning human beings for pasture. Germany never did carry on thus. The law is unable to cope with the lawless. It is not so much the prophecy they have against the colored people, but because the race is not popular with those who enforce the laws, therefore it is easy for the white criminal to escape prosecution more so than any other nationality. If the white Americans were fainted and honest and thought lynching and burning would stop his race from murdering and outraging white and colored women, most every day a white man would be lynched or burned at the stake. The re is nothing for the annuals of criminal history that some white Americans will not commit and are making new histories along this line daily. Only a few days ago a white man stood up in the court house in Topkaka before he judge and jury and confessed to being intimate with his 20 year old daughter, which had been going on for some two years or more, and now that the girl found herself in a serious condition would it have been known to this day and as yet the human father has not* an sentence for the crime and the chances he will be *pailed Only a small majority of whites have respect for the Golden Rule on the decalogue. Seventy five per cent of the church leaders and members among them and the ministers are grandstanders, seeking money and popularity. They condone crime all kinds by their silence. They can nive and wink at the same crime committed by a white person and at the same time destroy millions of jobs lars worth of property and lives to avenge the same crime supposed to have been committed by a colored person The American white man has allways robbed his colored brother of his rights and the women of their virtue without the least hesitation and boasts of it. Now he is intrat ing and seducing his own women end to hide his shame he occasionally charges a colored man with the offense. The white rate should gph boasting of their morals and virtues as their actions are getting down on low watermark. You are pudding the virtue of of your own girls dilder. Look at the white slayers in the pretentious and the thousands dodder the pen. You have got so low the it is dangerous for an honest man to invest his money in business for it to being driven out and his property destroyed The American colored people are standing firmly with the small minority of honest, Christian whites who are holding the constitution of the United States together. Crimes in the North are the work of the descendants of Jeff Davis and Southern rebel sympathizers. The South, I ways did nullify and defy the word of God by endorsing slavery and put their seal of approval upon it when they succeeded from the Union, and have never acknowledged their wrong. They are treating the colored people worse than they did before Lee was rendered to Grant and they promise I to be good. The colored people have nothing over which to be discouraged because of a few outrages committed by the North and West at intervals, the loyal white and colored people in these sections will take care of the situation. Chicago and Washington, DC are the evidence United States soldiers are ordered out, nor state guards who are always predicted and full of trace hatred not whose officers have but little control over them. The land has detected that you cool or d people on the South shall take up your bed and walk. This c time you are commanded to leave the dewl and his angels and go to a place of refuge and happiness. G North go East go West on to Mo io. Let the Southern white man larns grow up into weeds and thistl which will starve them as they are too indolent and Lays to catch breath by the sweet of their brow. This will be the tullibling of the script. where he would separate the whit from the tarts. From long suffering and Christian fortitude you have be come the wheat, so move out from the trees. This is the time Lois how they are begging the colored people to come back. Don't do it fo unlike Lois's wite you will become a pillow of fire instead of salt The South is dominated All the prayers and supplications from the angels in heaven cannot save Old Bible. The Omah episode will rebound and the blood of thrown will yet not upon those who led the mob on their errand of death and destruction of property. All honor and glory to Mayor Smith, who stood up for law, ord and decency. He is made of light material and all the world will stand up and say there's a man of God one whose oath of office means something." Mayor Smith ought to be made governor of Nebraska then president of the United States. This country is sadly in need of more men like Mayor Smith.

THE U B F HOME AT HANNIBAL CREDIT TO RACL Order in Missouri is a Beacon Light for Others to Follow St Louis Mo Sept 20 After traveling more than 100 miles in the interest of the Grand Lodge of K. O. P. my tour was ended at Hamibib While at Hamibib I visited the Mason and U B F Home of the latter I have this to say That the greatest Order of the U B F has a home for its unfortunate members which is a credit and an asset realized by ninety percent of the order It would make any member of the Order feel proud of his connection if he could see the home in its present condition Perhaps it cannot be described better than in the words of Past Grand Master Petigrow, who thus wrote in the register of the Home of his observations "This home is in the best sanitary condition I have ever seen." thing is clean and nice; the cooking is nice and clean; the inmates are clean, and have plenty to eat; the farm is in the best of shape; crop, good, stock in good condition, the work is hard. One woman works from daylight until 10 o'clock at night. There is no stop for her. She is just fine and seems unweary. I never saw so much fruit put up. This woman does everything about the house and farm. Mrs. Renfro should be encouraged with an increase of wages and a donation from the Board. We as U H F's will never be able to duplicate this woman, and Mr Renfro her husband, has no equal S 7 Pettigrew. Past grand Master. I made a careful examination of the home and farm. I found all that I knew. Pottigrew said to be true and I found more than he said in his brief word. There are two houses containing 6 rooms there are twelve inmates, to access of farm land to look after the head of horses, five head of cat be 12 head of hogs, any number of foxes, there are children to send to school, and an orphan baby to take care of. I found all of this being more than well done, under the management of Mr Queen and the special supervision of Rito Renfro. For all of this valuable service for 5000 members of the Order they are receiving the maximal sum of $40 and $20 per month. Our collections for last year was estimated at $9,000. They should receive not less than $125 per building that size would get more. The Order cannot afford to fall to Increase their wages. The work and care given the home by Rito Renfro and wife of not the results of that wages, but the results of their laws for the Order and for the uniforms intrusted to their care. We venture to say that this is the verdict of all who made up the party, which was a representative part there being in it Prof Martin Lewis and A C Marlin of the Douglass High school. Mrs Jennie Cotton Hudkier, well known in fraternity circles and especially to the Grand Royal House of our Order and myself. This man Renfro has wrought wonders at our home. Much home and credit are due to Mr and Mrs Renfro. Our Old Polks are well taken care of by the present management. No better place can be found for our old and derepit members. The Masonic Home After six years of most faithful service, Mr. and Mrs W H Dixon the managers of the Negro Masonle House at Hannibal are retiring tired and worn out with the heavy burden of caring for the Home. Since their taking charge of the management the place has been well stegged with hogs, cows, and poultry of all kinds; the home has been remodeled, and electric lighting systems has been installed the inmates have increased from four to nine, and those already there have grown older and more decrepit which makes the service more burdenome and taking. They are leaving the home very much improved a credit to the Masons of Missouri and an honor to themselves. Their places will be hard to fill. Grand Master C O Clark will signize his success if he can find their equals in work and worthiness and in the love and appreciation of those who live in the home. A W LLOYD Grand Chancellor MAKE SURVEY OF NEGRO CHURCHES IN KANSAS Mr P M Loaman state survey director, of Manhattan will call the colored ministers together in Topeka sometime soon to form a church council for this state and make a survey of the colored churches throughout the state. The council has decided to have the colored ministers and colored people make a study of all the churches, and are planning to finance the scheme. The survey will be started this fall and it is hoped that the same will be completed by the early spring or summer of next year. Principal Bridgforth, of the Kansas Industrial and Educational Institute is behind the matter, and the survey promises to help in a most appreciable manner. ATCHISON. KANSAS Mrs Jessie Pasco who spent the summer in Chicago visiting relatives and friends, returned last week and reports a very pleasant visit. Roy G B Wilhelms pastor of the M A M church returned from one force having been assigned to the church at this place and the members and friends are all joining. The reception tendered the soldier at Ebenezer Baptist church on the evening of the 22d was very attended. Mrs this Shohrer of Touchee visiting her sister Mrs Clinton Ewing Mrs Jerry Taylor entertained with a Keenington Pride afternoon in honor of her cousin Mrs Steeling Hughes of Omaha who has been visiting here. About sixteen ladies responded to the invitation and the afternoon was very pleasantly open. Mrs Geo H Kerford and Mrs F C George rendered very beautiful sofa during the evening. Price $1.50 Per Year METHODISTS HOLD ANNUAL CONFERENCE Kansas City, Kansas, Sept. 29 - The twenty-ninth annual session of the Kansas African Methodist Episcopal conference has passed into history as one of the great sessions in the history of the organization, and the largest amount of money ever raised by the conference at one time in its history was put on the table Thursday night after a masterly address by Governor Allen. Every session of the conference was full of interest and Bishop H. Blanton Parks was at his best. It was a busy session from start to finish. The opening sermon was delivered by the Rev W. C. Williams of Omaha and it was indeed a fine sermon, and strictly to the point. Dr. Williams had prepared the sermon for the occasion, and he delivered the message with force. There is much credit due Dr. J. H. Gillham and the members of the First African Methodist Episcopal church for the manner in which the members of the conference and visitors were all cared for and the excellent meals served in the lecture room of the church. The improvements showed up well and there were many expressions of congratulations from the visitors. In J. C. Caldwell, of Nashville, Tenn., secretary of the Allen Christian Endeavor League, and whose name is before the church for one of the next bishops to be elected in 1920 in St. Louis was active, and he conducted the study of the Bible every morning during the conference, which proved beneficial to the minister. Dr. Caldwell is well a prepared man. Charles Stewart, A. M., D/ D., of Chicago, one of the conference visitors, spoke on Saturday night, to a large crowd. The audience was thrown into convulsions of laughter so to speak and following each laugh a practical truth was driven home by the speaker. He paid a high tribute to Prof. and Mrs. Aaron Malone, the president and founder of Poro College. He spoke of their contribution to the race and humanity. The services on Sunday will long be remembered. They came from every direction, and Bishop Parks attached a great sermon. In the af- fternoon Dr I S Paine, of Lincoln, Nebr., preached and the closing sermon was preached Sunday night by Dr G R Billups, of Weldon. The delegates to the general con- ference elected are Rev.

We are very sorry indeed to announce the death of Mr Roby Wheeler who was run down by a switch engine, in an alley between First and Crane streets and sustained injuries from which he missed away a few days later. Mr Wheeler was at the plant of the Mutual Ice Co., and was standing beside a platform, when the switching outfit approached from the Seymour packing plant. He had a small push cart, securing it for the Howard restaurant. No one dreamed of his being in danger, as he was standing in the proper place to receive his ice. The engine and two or three coaches passed, but attached to these was a large flat car, above the average size, and it was this car that struck the cart, throwing him against the train, breaking his leg and crushing his side. He was a shoe cobbler by trade and had a shop on First and Madison streets. Mr Wheeler was a member of St. John A. M. E. church; a splendid man and possessed a heart as large as his body. Peace be to his ashes. THE BLUE GOOSE CAFE la the place to get good meals. All kinds of good eats. Home cooking. The right place to eat - Mrs T. H.

Watson, eloquent pastor of Shilloh Baptist church and also a leader in civic affairs, urged this office with his presence Wednesday afternoon Dr. Watson is one of those modest gentlemen who avoids the "spotlight" of newspaperdom and it's seldom that we have the opportunity of interviewing him. He is man who does big things but at ways fights shy of newspaper notices and strong man that he is; he lull brave and courageous in everything, he shies around this office for fear of our making him tell of his work and thus get his name in print Dr Watson had just recently returned from Newark New Jersey where he was in attendance on the National Baptist convention. He stands high in the councils of his denomination being editorial secretary of the Baptist Young People's Union Board Mr H. I. Monroe, grand master of Prince Hall Grand Lodge, N. I. and A. M., Kansas and jurisdiction assisted by over 300 Masons in Kansas City, Kansas, and grand officers, laid the cornerstone of St. Peters Chapel, C. M. E., church of which the Rev. H. T. Holden is pastor, Sunday. Something over $257,00 was taken up in collection. Pride of the West Lodge No. 53, had the honor of having the cornerstone. The procession formed at their hall on Tenth street and marched through some of the principal thoroughfares headed by Tifford Davis' band. Talks were made by Past Grand Master Colleague Deputy Grand Master Gregg. Grand Orator T W Bell and Grand Master Monroe. Our old printer tild Mush' G. Holloway, who rated one handi per cent pure in the art of polypilz dropped in on The Plaindaleer Monday afternoon. He was on route to his home in Horton from Kansas City, where he attended the A. M. E conference. When asked about the report that he was engaged to Mrs. Etta Scott McCleary, avan to and highly cultured lady of Kansas City, he "fessed up" like a little man and said that we had not been must informed. Mr. Holloway has also been granted ministerial license on the A. M. E church. Here's to you Royerend The Rev L B Chiles or Oakland the man who gives sky dawn on week to the cultivation of his farm in that district and on the seventh praetor the gospel of the Lord and Navlour Jesus Christ tendered an excellent account of his stewardship during the past year at the W M conference in Kansas City a week and was assigned to Lakeview and Rock Valley, points he has looked after for several years. Last year he "dropped out" but before the conference year closed, he was called upon by the Bishop to take the place of the Rev Chlam, who seemed unable to make things go at Rock Valley. He took hold and began to first things up and was soon sailing along smoothly. Just before the setting on conference he had a rally from which was realized $150 and besides "he has painted the church and made other improvements that adds to its beauty and comfort. When one learns that all this has been accomplished with only 20 members and beaches the pastor cultivated and placed on the market some fifty acres or more of produce, we feel like taking our hat off to him.

Williams spent Sunday in Kansas City visiting old time friends. They report a pleasant days' stay with "the bunch." Mrs. M. D. Jones, of Junction City, returning from a visit to her home in Tennessee, where she spent several weeks with her sister, who has been ill, spent a few hours in the city one day this week.

Rev H W King, pastor of St. John A M E church, returned Monday from Kansas City, where he attended the annual conference of his church in that city last week. Rev. King completed a most successful year in Topeka; his report being the best ever sent from that church, and he has been reassigned to this post. Rev. King has the support of the members who have not soil back, but they took the lead and said "come on" and they accomplished wonders. The same spirit that brought success to St. John during the past year will predominate the future, and a greater work will no doubt be accomplished An old fashioned barbecue will be given on Saturday evening Oct II by the East Hill Missionary Baptist church on East Hill near the church.
