Topeka Plaindealer The Plaindealer Man Will Be in Oklahoma Next Week---Be Prepared to Settle Your Subscription Account SEESTED, RECENT NATURALIZED GERMAN, POURS OUT HIS POISON Tirade of the Kansas City Times is an Example of Fair Play as Viewed by the South and Germany. The following editorial appeared in *The Kansas City Times*, Monday, Oct. 6, and from the tone of the article, we would stake our life that the writer thereof is a Southerner or a descendant of the tribe that predates that section: Wise Action by Negroes. Thirty-eight leading Negro educators to North Carolina are reported to have announced a definite platform upon which the Negroes in that state may stand in peace with the white race and in line with the aspirations of their own race. The platform, it is said, condemns all advocacy of social equality or intermarriage between the races and opposes any appeal to force as a cure for injustice of either race against the other. This is a highly sensible attitude to be taken by members of the Negro race. It is encouraging to find educated Negroes of the South alert to race to the civilized progress of a civil tendencies that threaten the safety and well-being of their own considerable portion of the white race. As the report of the educators states, the individual or organization that advocates the intermingling of the races on terms of social equality and intermarriage of races is dolg great harm to the Negro, and endangering the security of both races. Advocates of social equality and intermarriage have come chiefly from the white race, and upon this race a great deal of responsibility must rest in the present unsettled and deployable conditions. Advocates of these dangerous doctrines have been actuated by the desire for personal gain, in selling a Negro property in a "whirl" district, for example, and by a feeling of irresponsibility in their social relations. But their doctrines and acts have been social dynamite. The biggest factor in the "solution" of the race problem in America, according to practically all reliable and nervous minded students of the question, is segregation. Booker T. Washington realized this fact, and in all his educational work and side proachs among his people, he taught them to work out their own salvation by doing what they were prepared to do, and could be prepared to do. The worthy Negro citizen he felt, need not worry about social equality. As Tuskegee, Hamilton Institute, and many other of the really serviceable Negro educational institutions of the South and at a few in the North, these views of the question are propagated. Some of the most prosperous Negro communities of the South are particularly adjacent to but otherwise distinctly separate from white communities. Furthermore, in recent years there has been a decided drift of the Southern Negro population toward the Gulf and South Atlantic coast sections so that in time a considerable portion of the black race may be as thoroughly segregated as the Indian race now is. In other sections of the country the contact of the races in recent years has been altogether different. The large influx of Negroes to Northern cities has caused housing facilities to the limit and a little beyond the limit. The resulting conditions have produced a situation favorable to race plots. There will have to be consider al readjustment with the idea of book er T Washington and very likely some of his students among the North Carolina educators family in mind The process will be long and trying and there will be need of cool heads all around Incidentally there will be need of more educational instuctions. North and South with the joyle and practice of Tuskegee in altitude --- We thought the Kansas City Times had gotten above such sloppy stunts. What right has the colored face to take second place for any other race in this country? They have proven their worth and qualification along all lines, and why should they take a back seat for the HUM Male Indian or any other nation thus? It seems as though the whites are trying to find a place for the black man as though he was not worthy of the good things the white man is working. This editor believes in segregation, at least the article sounds that way. The white man did not creat this earth by himself. He is the fugue and being of the black man only different in color and texture of hair. Now why should he assume himself ruler and dictator of this race, and make bounds so that he cannot pass them? We cannot see why an editor with common sense, especially one representing the Kansas City Times, should dwell on social equality. The colored man is not asking for any; all he asks for is equality before the law and for men in office who M. B. THE REV. J. C. CALDWELL, WHO WILL BE ELECTED BISHOP AT THE NEXT GENERAL CONFERENCE OF THE A. M. E. CHURCH. Rev J. C. Caldwell, secretary offerences throughout the country for the A. M. D. Sunday School Union, Bishop. It is practically conceded attended the Kansas conference, and that he will be elected on the first has been endorsed by several con- ballot. will see that justice is equally enforced. Now, as to intermarriage, the editor of the Times should have sense enough to know that the white man has been intermarrying into the colored race for over two centuries. The only thing he did not do was to get the consent of the woman or obtain a license. If he will look out of his editorial window, he will see the effect of social equality, brought about by his own race. Owning property in "white" districts, this is another bugaboon and weak spot on the brain of the Times writer. The white man feels and makes it his indispensable duty to own property and operate business in colored districts without the least hesitation or reservation. We do not know why the Times corporation pays this man money to write such foolish stuff as this. There is nothing elevating about it, nor anything to get the races closer together, but is intended to engender race prejudice and keep the races apart on friendly and business relations. These thirty-eight educators of North Carolina, upon whom this powerful editor takes his text, do not mean what this apostle of the Times intends to make it appear. Any sensible, progressive and intelligent colored person wants to enjoy the same rights and privileges that any other race enjoys There are plenty of white men waiting for newspapers who cannot write anything to catch the eye, unless it be something low and degrading about colored people. Now Mr. Editor, who wrote this article, please wake up and try to find something else to write about so that you may have your salary increased and make a fair living. Let's see, the big man on The Times is named Seested a German. Can you not see the why of it all? It will come to you more forcibly if you will reflect back a few months over some of the propaganda in the Times on the war. RAMBLINGS OF A PLAINDEALER CORRESPONDENT. Wagoner, Okla., Oct. 10 - I begun my search for business Sept. 29th and had fair success. I visited the country Monday and found most of the people picking cotton. Mr J. L. Mills headed our subscription list with one year's subscription to the Plaindealer. He is a prosperous farmer. I visited the home of Mr Noah Alberty, took his subscription and after looking over his many acres of beautiful farm land fine stock and granary, we visited Mr W. M. Markham. I found the same progressive work. I must pay both of the above are natives, yet they are among the most progressive farmers in Wagor county. I visited the home of Mr. Henry Schrimsher. He has a beautiful home and does progressive farming, owning his land. Mr. Brewer is doing some good farming. The Rev. W. M. Morton, the Miss. farmer was hard at work gathering some of the best corn I have seen. I took a trip to Ft. Gibson, and met some old subscribers of The Plaindealer. Mr. A. Tally headed our list there. I must say of him he is really a race man. He does the best business in Ft. Gibson, has the neatest restaurant in the city. He also has a barber shop and a cleaning and pressing establishment. Wagnerer was enlivened this week with the setting of two associations—the Landmark and the Collate association. The general officers of the association; Rev. T. T. Love, moderator, Rev. J. F. Kersh, vicemoderator; R. L Nero, secretary; T. H. Turner, corresponding secretary; C. H. Askew, treasurer; E. G. Gandy, state missionary. This body of officers conducted every part of the sessions with credit. Noticeable features of the association: The district chair furnished excellent singing with thirty voices; chorister, A. L. Branch. The contest money raised for educational purposes amounted to $68.72. The contestants, Mrs. Hattie Spears, first prize, a crochet laundry bag; Mrs. Lillie Thompson, second prize, a crochet handkerchief or collar bag; Mrs. Madley Long, third prize, a table cover, all beautifully handmade. With eloquent presentation, the prizes were presented by Dr. W. W. Hopson. The Home Mission Womens' convention met in joint session with the Collate Association presided by Mrs. R. V. Vanhorn, president; Mrs. F. H. Carter, vice-president; Mrs. Suddle Brooks, secretary; amount raised $257.92. Too much credit and praise cannot be given sister, A. D. Love, district missionary, her field, Vinta to Coalgate, thence Claremores to Morratt. She has done untiring work this year. Visited the Girl's Training school at Sapulpa three times, bringing in donations of needful articles for the school. Amount of money raised for the year, $362.48. For her faithful year's work Sister Love was presented with several hand made presents and the association presented her with $20 when making her final report. There were many soul-attiring sermons. The Rev. A. L. Branch, of McAlester, preached an excellent sermon, as did also E. W. Perry, of Oklahoma City. Amount of money raised during the association, $1274 75; $263.64 more than raised eight years ago. Next annual session will be held at Choctaw Okla. This association is known as the record brewer. (MRS) B PARKER KANSAS CITY, KANS. The revival meeting held at the Fremont Baptist church was a prou- nounced success. It seemed to bring about a spiritual upheaval and was well attended. Reverends Chester and Rae Mosegreat, field men of the buffed the glad news of Jesus. Rev R R Harris, pastor Sister R Coleman, club THE LEGEND OF THE WORLD'S FIRST WOMEN THE REV. T. A. BOWERS, WORTHY LEADER AND PASTOR LANE CHAPEL, WHERE THE CONFERENCE OPENS OCT. 22. REV. T. A. BOWERS HAS MADE GOOD REV. T. A. BOWERS HAS MADE GOOD (BR) MATTIE A PERKINS (B) MATTIG A PORKINS The annual conference of the C. M. E. church will be held in this city beginning Oct. 22d at Lane Chapel, corner Fourteenth and Van Duren streets, and it is needless to add that members, friends and citizens regardless of men, creed or religion are stretching forth their hands to assist in caring for this gathering of distinguished men. "By their works we shall know them," and as an example of this quotation we point with a finger of pride to the Ite T. A Bower, wide awake, progressive pastor of Lane Chapel. His acts, words and deeds have been in keeping with the high-class Christian gentleman that he is and stand out boldly as a bacon light and example for mankind to emulate. His flower has brought Lane Chapel to the front along all lines. Rev Bowers was born in Tennessee, educated at Roger Williams University and received the degree of B A. at Lane College. He came to Kansas in 1911 and was stationed at Paxico, where he served three years. Rev Bowers was then made presiding of der over the Kansas district and served with signal credit to himself and his decompination. Prior to his appointment to this new field the district had never raised more than $400 for missions. The first year he raised $700 and the second year he raised $1625 78. Lane Chapel was at 1500 in debt and the Bishop was looking for a man to go to the Lane Chapel, and Rev Bowers offered to give up the work of the district and take up the task of relieving the people of the district just one year after he had taken charge of his new work in Topelia, the mampage of the church was burned, and all the floating debts were cleared away. This year he has made more than $500 worth of improvements which is nearly all paid for. The Rev. Rowley has a host of good warm personal friends among all men and races in Topper who would regret you much to see him removed from Topper. Not a man so he as he deserves the host in the lit of his church and should it be tendered him all would be delighted to see him step up higher. He is a young man full of get up and get and we predict greater things for him in the future. He is also a printer and on many occasions when our mechanical forces is in a "right" the heaviest throws off his coat and comes to our resume. He has free access to anything in the Flatlander office and not only does all the printing used by his church but others who have job work give it to him and he takes care of their wants. We like Rev. Rowley and wish him continued success. HON. ELISHA SCOTT ADDRESSES STUDENTS AND FACULTY Hon Scott his way of introduction returned to growth of the school to the large student body and told them of his early struggles in going there the institute, and how proud he is that he had the opportunities at tended by his institution. Hon Scott is a graduate of the school and a most enthusiastic alumnus. Scott tells students to prepare themselves along all lines of industry, that the doors in the industrial fields are open everywhere, that ports are called for in cooking, in the laundry, in the machine shop, automobile shop, and on the farm. The students have a perception on. Scott made a donation of $100 to the hospital fund Principal Bridgeforth announced at the exercise another substantial donation to the hospital from Mr. August Jacolieke, Jr., banker of Hanover, Kansas. Miss Lizzle Wooster, superintendent of education, Mrs. D. L. Peers, Mrs. J. N. Abrams, and Mr. C. K. French make contributions to the school. The board of administration, faculty, and students wish to thank these good friends for their kindness. The fact that the Kansas in industrial and Educational Institute has become a state institution should guarantee to the public the wisest possible use of everything donated to the school The institution is very much in need of stoves, chairs, tables for students' rooms, equipment for automobile teaching, rugs, blankets, sheets, pillow cases, pictures, old clothing for poor and worth boys and girls that often come to the institute and other useful articles ordinarily used in the home. Any friends who wish to help the institution in any of these directions may call phone No 2900, and the institution will send for whatever donations are offered. ONE OF THE CAUSES OF RIOT IN WASHINGTON Colored Boy Forces a White Man to Apologize for an Insult to a Girl of His Race. Washington, D C - H K Barlow (white) an examiner in the compensation and claims division of the War Risk Insurance Bureau. It is alleged was forced to stand up and apologize to a colored messenger girl and her brother, or accept the consequences of a physical combat. Barlow made some insulting remarks to the messenger girl which she insulted. The next day Barlow was confronted at his desk by her brother, who demanded an apology to the messenger girl, who accused him and of whom he declared he was the brother. Seeing his finish should he fail to comply with the demand by the brother of the girl Barlow offered a consolatory apology remaining stalled looking out of the window and apparently treating the matter lightly. I do not want that kind of apology, the colored boy answered quickly. This caused several of Ballow's coworkers to pay attention to what was going on in the room. To save himself from further from his Ballow nose from his chair in his desk and formally apologized to the girl's brother.

Mrs. Penna Thompson Price $1.50 Per Year SOLVING AMERICA'S RACE PROBLEM SOLVING AMERICA'S RACE PROBLEM Prejudiced Plus Segregation—100 Per Cent. American. One Hundred Per Cent, Americanism Plus a Complete Denial of Rights and of Citizenship—Democracy. Editor Philadelphor: Feeling very much disgusted at the different ways in which democracy is demonstrated, I beg through the columns of your paper for some true red-blooded American to explain to me the difference between democracy and autocracy. Our most famous speakers of today are preaching 100 per cent Americanism but to whom, and for who? In a short survey of recent events and occurrences I find the same prejudice that existed before the war still in existence only stronger, and the world is now safe for democracy. I cannot but wonder at the nation or country that depends upon the colored man to help defend it against foreign foes, and then after the victory shall have been won, questions herself as to whether I will give the colored people their rights. Such was the case here in Salinas when possibly four students sought admission to the Commercial college after being welcomed by the president, a few prejudiced students held a council and voted to bar the colored people from the school and the president, Mr. Weller, yielded to their wishes. This was kept hidden from the public until some of the students reported at the college, only to be turned away, Dr. H. H. Wilson, Rev. Burbridge and Mr. S. DePriest took it upon themselves on behalf of the colored citizens of Salina to investigate. They were assured by the president once more that the colored students would be admitted. After taking a vote from the student body Monday morning, it was found the vote was in favor of the colored. I certainly think it is fine to take our money through in etc., to build and support schools and then be barred from them, don't you.
