Governor H. O. Lowder's Presidential Recom is Growing Daily Troughou' Kansas and the Nation OKLAHOMA, THE LAND OF OPPORTUNITY FOR NEGROES Twenty-Second Year. We will from time to time give a few notes pertaining to our visit in Oklahoma last October and November. We stopped at BARTLESVILLE. a thriving oil town with a small colored population Here we found a restaurant pool hall, barbershop and a tailorshop. Mr. Edgar Manning is the leading factor. He owns the borbershop and a nice home. Mrs. Minnie Jones is the owner of a good cafe. Jerse Farmer is one of the leading spirits, owns a good home and is employed at one of the leading banks. The colored people need to be spurred up. They don't seem to be worried much about their civil and political rights. It was here that we met our old friend, Attorney Ed. O'Neill, formerly county commissioner of Topeka and Shawnee county. He said the colored people were not getting a square deal in Oklahoma nor Bartlesville. He is a Kauana white man who belongs in fair play. PAWHUSKA. Here you find Indians in great numbers Southern white men seem to hold full sway. Here the colored people are doing fairly well for what they know and the opportunity given them. They are badly segregated in that they are on a creek bank and when it overflows, makes it dreadfully unpleasant. The school and also the churches and population are located in the woods. Here you find one good clean restaurant and confectionery owned by Mr. and Mrs. David Gulv. They also own three rental houses and several vacant Mr. u. A. Windsor is the man who owns six rental houses and has an income of about $226 per month. What is needed most is a man who will arouse the colored people to more activity by looking upward. TULSA This was our third stop and we made our headquarters on the colored peoples' Madison Square hotel known as Greenwood avenue. Here you find the theatre, motion picture shows, hotels, dry goods stores grocery stores, garages, confectionerys, barbershops, real estate dealers, professional offices, restaurants, caterc, are in such numbers that John could not count; print shops and in fact everything but a bank. Everyone seemed to be for themselves except Mrs. Williams, who owns the theatre and confectionery and other valuable holdings. She is putting forth every effort to make things go. She would help in the establishing of a bank if other reliable people would join in. They have politicians, deputy sheriffs and one or two other minor political jobs. The colored politicians all seem to want the same job. No one wants to be a clerk or hold some of the other several jobs held by white men. Bornes Cleaver, a staunch Republican and a clever officer, seems to hold on under any parties. H. C. Patch, formerly of Muskogee, where he served on the police force, is now one of Tulsa's best police of flicers. He also served as deputy sheriff. He was born on Tulahoma in 1871; a single man and a child with the mable and is a jac Ladder and bobles in standing, so for a man's rights. He wants his week to count and do a good job in depth in order to hold on. He is very much a source of fair man This Gentry is a sure, real real estate and loom agent. He has built more houses and the land are col- med people in position to own, house than any ten men in Oklahoma. Dixon the tailor on Chuckahli one of the live wires Frank Williams, 122 N Flah, has erected a fine two story plaza brick front where he is using a fine drug store. The building cost something like $6000 The People's Cleaning Co. T I Wisner, owner, 122 N Flah is doing fine. C. L. Gabe, the contractor and butler is doing fine. Dillott and Hooker own a large dry goods store carrying a stock of over forty thousand dollars. It is certainly a slight to behold young colored ladies and girls measuring silks and fitting ladies and girls clothing. This ought to be everywhere. Mrs J H Lewis 1911 North Larsing, is a real business woman. She operates the oldest grocery in the addition, started by Sue in 1911 and is now carrying a stock with over $100. She was a teacher in the school at Patlah La before coming to Oklahoma. Mr Lewis is a contractor and builder and does his work in his woll. The firm specializes in houses besides the store building and family residences. The points are proud of her and prove it by patronizing the store. Mrs Lewis is through race woman and still is likely for the rights of women. No 1. will complete his church in 1820 at a cost of over twenty thousand dollars. He has over 750 members. The Rev Tucker, pastor of he A M church on Greenwood and candidate for bishop is erecting a $10,000 church. A L. Phillips 710 N Greenwood, came to Tulsa a few years ago with cut a dollar and now he is worth thousand- He owns good business Mr. go over their tilt. M and Mg W W Shobe formally of Salma, Kosse who conduct a fine contest tonry and a billiard parlor with inft on tables to all the time. The best young man of the town final museum in this parlor Mr. Shobe makes highly in Tulsa and he wealthy business colored people. He is a polished business man He is located in the Gardens building of W Gardens has added over thirty rooms to the building at a cost of over twenty thousand dollars He is the royalty and loom business. Tusa is Lead partners of the Knights of Pathis of Oklahoma, Dr Chris B Wickham grand chancellor residing here and owns a beautiful home and is one of Tulsa's leading business and professional men. The order is fast taking on new life, and they are making inroads on life insurance companies by increasing their endowment to $500. We called on the Grand Chancellor for an interview in reference to the condition of the order under his four years as lead, and he said: "Oklahoma has progressed wonderfull in hr fraternal work. The years ago we were $500 in debt, today we have all debts paid; have increased our policies to $500 and have a healthy reserve fund in the bank. During the past twelve months we have paid $10290 to our widows and benefactaries. Today in Oklahoma the Knights of Pythias are giving the colored man the best $500 insurance policy. A large gold reserve fund is being provided behind every policy." The Welcome Grocery Co. owned by W. H. Smith and Son, 122 Greenwood, carries a ten thousand dollar stock. They recently erected the pressed brick two-story block in which Elliott and Hookers dry goods store is located. They also occupy a part of the grocery firm's building. Young Smith is a graduate of the Kansas University, was principal of the Douglass school at Muskogee until he resigned to go into business with his father. Here is the home of the Tulsa Star. A J. Smitherman, the editor and owner, is a wide awake hustler. They have a linetype and presses and are well equipped. Our old friend and former travelling agent, Theo. Baughman is the man behind the gun. He is business manager, and has but few equals in the newspaper and job printing business. He knows everybody and everybody knows him. The Star also prints a daily edition Mr. Baughman can be found defending the cause of his race at all times. Our old friend and former townsperson, Harry Oris Abbott, has opened a the job office and doing fine. Tulsi offers many splendid opportunities for wide awake colored men. A strong bank should be organized; too much money in the white banks belong to colored people who get no action on it. Large business enterprises could be maintained through the bank. A building and loan association to hold good modern homes for colored people is also needed. Where is the mind with brain who can organize a custom like this? The colored people have the money and want some good man of the race to handle it. Let the colored man of Tulsi get away from cheap things, take up and be real man who can do things. Cut out selfishness, mothering and charging big interest on real estate loans to the two. There are enough colored people in Tulsi to undertake anything feasible. We shall speak of the man who owns the rural telephone line and making money. An organization could build other lines and make it pay. We shall say more about the line and the owner soon. Lewis T. (Budd) Thown, manager of the Dreamland theatre is one of the best business men in the country. SAND SPRINGS Here is a town where you see oil refineries and other manufacturing industries. Here the colored people are doing fairly well. They own a few stores and cat houses. Prof J. I. tane, principal of the Washington school is doing much for the race. He is asking for and getting many things for the school. Mr Chas Page the philanthropist is a great friend of Prof Lane and the race. He will be glad to do things that are beneficial. Prof Lane has a glee club band and orchestra. He has announced his marriage to his domestic science teacher. TOPEKA, KANSAS, F. which means greater success for the school and rage. He speaks highly of the mayor who is also helping to do things. COUNCIL BLUFF8, IA Services at the A. M. E. church Sunday was excellent. A nice crowd greeted the pastor, Rev. M. R.
