The Plaindealer Man is in Oklahoma This Week----Be Prepared to Settle Your Subscription Account The Twenty-First Year. WILL THE GOVERNOR ASSIST IN S Innocent Negr Death on " Perjured WILL THE GOVERNOR OF ARKANSAS ASSIST IN STOPPING MURDER? Innocent Negroes are Sent to Death on "Framed" and Perjured Testimony. Topeka, Kan. Nov 11, 1919 Hon. Chas. H. Brough. Governor of Arkansas. Uleigh. Arkansas. My Dear Governor: As president of the Kansas Defense Society and editor of The Topeka Plaindealer, we appeal to you in the name of high heaven to use your good offices to the effect of putting an end to the outrages and kangaroo methods being applied in the trial of several colored Americans charged with committing crimes which were never dreamed of by these coloured farmers and laborers. They were forced to band themselves together for the protection of their labor and crops. The white merchants and landown- ers were robbing them of their crops paying the colored producers from 3 to 5 per cent less for their cotton than they did the white planters, and for this reason the officers of the law are conniving with those merchants and others to bulldoze and cow the colored people to submit to their outrages and have applied the third degree to a few illiterate and misguided colored souls to swear falsely against these men; pretending that there was an organization formed among the colored people to kill the whites, which is a lie upon its face, manufactured by liaising, designing white officers and detectives to earn a reward and at the same time assist that class of whites who make it their unbounded duty to cheat and steal the earnings of colored people. If the colored people had such intentions they could be burning homes and murdering white people at will. They could easily set fire to cotton gins, warehouses, wavlay and murder. They could dynamite and do anything to the white people of the South they desired, but they do not want to resort to this unless forced to do so by such methods as being miled to them at Elaine, where the four Johnson brothers, who were gentlemen and good citizens, going about their own business. And after this white mob had committed this hellish deed, their mother had to pay the officers a good sum of money in order to secure the dead bodies of her sons and as yet we have not even heard of a feeble attempt on your part to apprehend these murderers. You are aware of the fact that the trial judge and jury who are trying these men at Helena are not giving these men a square deal We "GOD,, THE NEGRO AND MOBS." Baltimore Md., Nov. 6—Speaking on the above subject before an unusual congregation at Bethel A. M. E. church, last Sunday night, the Rev. W. Sampson Brooks took the occasion to condemn the recent disturbances on Stricker street where youth broke windows of several colored housekeepers, who were newcomers in the neighborhood. "The whole situation is fraught with the greatest danger to this community," Roy Brooks said, "I know the trying circumstances under which each of these housekeepers has to exercise utmost patience while velous bows destroy property and imperil their lives. But I want you to exhaust every means of the law to stop these outrages before you take the shotgun or the platoi." "This is the third or fourth time in the last three months that colored homes have been stoned by white boys, and if our lower courts had not been in the hands of persons in sympathy with the mob, these offenders against law and order would have been arrested and punished." "The church, white and cooried is responsible for this lack of interracial good will, and unless it applies to the solution of the problems back of the prevailing unrest, God will open the doors for political and military agencies to do the work that we ought to be doing."

We want you to do your whole duty as you swore you would do. I.e., to pardon these men if the cases come up to you. These men have not had and cannot get a fair trial in that community. You know the prejudice that exists in a large majority of whites against the colored race, and on the other hand the colored people have no prejudice against the whites and stand ready to aid and assist them in most any and all landable actions. We now ask you to call upon the few loyal and true white people of your state to meet a committee representing the thousands of loyal, loving and patriotic colored people to meet and demand a better enforcement of laws and they equally applied to men of all races. We stand ready and willing to assist you in bringing your race in closer touch with the colored race. If something is not done chaos will reign throughout the South. Your farms will grow up in weeds and your government will be a mockery. We have written the Rev. E. C. Morris at Helena, Arkansas, president of the National Baptist Convention of the United States and who presides over three millions of colored Baptists in this country to co-operate with you in this matter. We want him to apply to you in a firm and manly way; the way locus would and talk the matter over with you and the committee as an American citizen; talk to you as a servant of the people and not their masters. We pray that you receive them as brethren and citizens, not feeling you as a white man are their superiors. The twelve millions of colored people and millions of good white people of the North are willing to stand by you and your small minority in the South to help put down race prejudice. If there is anyone race that ought to be respected by the Southern white man it is the colored man. He is the bone and sinew of the South. He made the country over 200 years ago now let him and his future generations enjoy the fruits of their labor. If we can be of service to you and Dev Morils, you have to but let us know.

Plaindealer --- The Republican party can do the right thing in 1924 and make no mistake in nominating Governor Frank O. Lowden, for president. He is the right man for the place, a firm believer in the rights of the American people and the equal enforcement of the laws of the land laborer and capitalists will receive the same recognition at his hands. The country needs a strong, firm American who can stand up without leading a single principle in the constitution. The country needs a man like him at this particular time to adjust matters and put the country on stable basis. We believe he is going to be the next president to succeed Woodrow Wilson. His nomination is equivalent to an election. Let us be thankful for a Lowden he has been tried and can be depended upon. The Topkei Plaindealer is for Gov. Lowden all the way to the White House. COL. J. C. CHASTINE (By J. SILAS HARING) Life is a dream to be interrupted only by death. The dream of J C Chastine is over, and, sorrowing, we gather around his lifeless form to pay our last tribute of respect to the departed soul. In life, we see with clouded vision, the wonderful beauties of creation and of God, but in death, the horizon clears, and we view, for the first time, those nobler qualities of the mind and heart that has made human life worth living. Chastine lived through the first half century of Negro freedom, the darkest period in the history of civilization; a period of discouragement, of bitter disappointments, and of blasted hopes yet he lived and fought as best he knew, for a place in the sunlight of liberty and in the realm of opportunity. When he could battle no longer, for the race that he so dearly loved, God called him away. He was a man of extraordinary native force and of fine character, qualities that would have won for him high honors, had he been a member of any other race. He was a man of high ideals and of wonderful determination, following what he conceived to be right, regardless of any opposition that his course might provoke; set. *The boast of heraldry, the pomp of power, And all that beauty, all that wealth ever gave Anguila alike the laurel crown. Awaits alike the invitable hour. The paths of glory lead but to the grave." He lived a busy life, full of hope, ever struggling for the unattainable, catching, now and then glimpses of those higher political regions for which his soul longed and to which his labors entailed him. Col Chastine shouted in the reconstitution with and loved the association of great men. He knew well most of the prominent leaders of his race, and was on friendly speaking terms with many of the great statesmen of the present day. His name will not be enrolled in the "Temple of Name" but it will linger in the memories of men for years to come. Missouri gave to the world in the early morning of freedom some of the greatest characters that the Negro race has produced; men of unquestioned ability, of courage, of sterling character, of pure patriotism, pioneers of the development and progress of the race. Tumper, Wheeler and Tands are gone but they will never be forgotten by the men and women of our race. It was those men who taught Chastine and thousands of young men, their first lessons in politics and patriotism. Chastine did not live in vain, he plumed well his port in the drama of life, and carried the goodwill of the people. He loved his family and relatives and often mentioned them in his public address, but his sister Mrs Alice Harris, was his heart. He loved her with a devotion that was childlike and his love was returned. He leaves us at a time when we needed him most, but we bow our heads in humble submission to the degree of God, and bid Chastine a long farewell. Mr. Chastine resided in Kansas City, Mo. and was well known in Kansas. 777 — TABORS AT WICHITA — 333 Withita Tabernacle No. 1 asks the dozen minutes of the first p and season be sent to the H. P. P.

MORRIS IS SILLE OF HIS RACE AR President of N Convention Arms at H DR. MORRIS IS SILENT WHILE MEN OF HIS RACE ARE BEING MURDERED President of National Baptist Convention is Called to Arms at His Home. --- Topoka, Kan, Nov. 11, 1919 Dr. E. C. Morris, President, National Baptist Convention, Little Rock, Arkansas M) Dear Sir. We note through the press dispatches, the mockery of justice and Langaron proceedings now going on before the courts in your state and town. We now appeal to you as a leader of the race and president of a body composed of over three million Baptists in this country, to call the colored ministry of your denomination and invite the bishops and heads of other denominations along with what fair-minded white Christian ministers you might find, and in a joint session denounce these outrages which are being perpetrated against the race, not only in Arkansas, but the entire South land. Then call upon the Governor and request that the machinery of the state government be put into action behind the movement and see that the officers of the law do their prescribed duties without prejudice insist upon the sheriffs, and city officials employing and appointing colored officers to assist in enforcing the law also. Poor, violous, ignorant white men are allowed to administer the law and when they desire to show their importance, they proceed to stir up trouble among the peaceful colored people. We have written the Governor of your state requesting him to confer with you in this matter. Now, my dear Reverend, it is your duty as a follower of Christ to raise your voice against these outrages and insist upon the ministers doing the same. Christ was no coward no. He denounced crimes and mocks at all times and in any place He by chance happened to be No minister should be allowed to stand in the pulpit who does not dory sin, be it a white or black person who commits it. We are surprised at not hearing from you on these outrages; murdering and robberies being carried on under your very nose and not one word of expression to the public has been uttered by you at least, we have failed to see or hear of it. This is why the Baptists of this country put you in that responsible position and that is why they have kept you there for over a quarter of a century, that you might look after the interests of the race along Christian and temporal lines. Christ does not want towards to follow after film or use his name. You owe it to the people to stand up for right and work to that end. I have asked the Governor to receive you as a Christian gentleman so if you call upon him, approach him as your servant and not your master. You don't have to grin or bow, but stand up look him straight in the eye and tell him his Christian duties and that you want to join in bringing about peace and harmony. Tell him the cultured people of Arkansas are not getting a square deal. Point out to him the obvious school system. The white man is not spending any time preparing for the educating of colored children and don't care especially in the rural districts and towns. Call his attention to the penal institutions and other cases with which you are familiar. If we can be of any service to you, just say the word. It's your duty to raise money am milion counsel who are fearless and you will fight the state to the end.

If you love Christ, follow Him, and crush out sin by denouncing it from the house tops. It only took seven minutes for the jury to render a verdict. Say to the white people, Reverend that they are widening the chasm between the races by such methods. I am yours for the race.

We wish to call attention of the young men and old men for that matter, as to their conduct in the local theatre. Common sense tells a man that he should respect womanhood where ever he sees it. Why sit in the presence of our women with your hat and cap one? Why sit in the show and for a radius of twenty feet keep everybody off with your loud and boisterous conduct? Why disturb the whole theatre? Why do this when your presence should only be known when the lights are turned on in full. The rights which have granted the theatre going public of the race will be lost in the near future and only because of the thoughtless man NATIONAL RACE CONGRESS By Chan, Stewart Washington D. C. Oct. 11 The National Race Congress, which has been in session here during the week closed last night, going on recoil advocating the unrestricted ballot in the hands of every American citizen, the protection of all under the law, and wiping out Jim Crowism. There were present representative men and women from twenty-one served by them. All sessions were held in the Metropolitan Baptist church, of which the Rev. M. W. D. Norman is pastor. The opening sermon was preached last Monday night by the Rev. E A P. Check, of Newark, N. J., National Chaplain, and then followed the opening on Tuesday morning, presided over by Dr. W. H. Jernagin, D. D., the president. "America" was used to open the session, and the prayer was made by Dr. Check. Commissioner Louis Brownlow extended welcome to the delegates, did M. W. King and Architect J. A. Longford. Bishop I. N. Ross, D. D., of the A. M. setting forth the work of the Congress, advocating the abolition of "Jim-Crowism", the use of the ballot, paper treatment of the race, and setting forth the kind of leadership needed. He said that the race would not follow the hand-selected leader, but would take into itself the right to select leaders, and would cast aside those selected because they could be used as rubber stamps. He wanted real men, feeble men, men who would contend for the rights of the race on all sensors and could no sell out. He deployed the recent race rushes and contended they were conducted by the leaders element, and that the law-making element of both races would together, and that some action be taken by them to avoid minimizing such dangers in the future. The feature of the day was the annual address by Dr. W. H. Jennings of Washington, who touched every phase of the work done and to be brought before the people. It outlived a program for the future which would accomplish a pool for the meant to赁jquarters will be established and set one for national development efforts we are making.
