A. M.E. Conference Shows Progress Of Race Historical Society State Map Tweaty-Second Year. No 19 E. Confe n Responds To Bishop Flipper of Is Of Lynching e Remedy For It W. T. Vernon Responds To Welcome--Bishop Flipper of Atlanta Tells Of Lynching Evil and the Remedy For It cation and strike the blow that will make him free, measuring up to every requirement that makes a man for 'a that and 'a that." Bishop Flipper said that disfranchisement was due to the baneful doctrine of states' rights and the indifference of the national government to enforce the amendments to the constitution of he United States. The quadrennial sermon was preached by Bishop J. Albert Johnson of Philadelphia, Pa. Communion service was conducted by Bishop W. D. Chappelle, of Columbus, S. C. assisted by Bishops James M. Connor of Little Rock, Ark.; I. N. Rosa, of Washington, D. C.; W. W. Beckett, of Brooklyn, N. Y.; L. J. Chopin, of Philadelphia, N. Y.; and W. W. Heard, of Philadelphia, Pa. Dr. W. D. Johnson was elected executive secretary and Rev. T. J. Roes, chief marshal. Wm T. Findley secretary to Mayor Kiel, delivered the address of welcome. The report of the Financial Secretary of the A. M. E. General Conference made by secretary Hawkins is the best made since the organization of this department in 1872. In that quadrennium, during which it lev. J. H. Burley was secretary, the total amount raised was $95544.1. In the report of secretary Hawkins, the amount was $1,0536700.1. This is an average annual collection of more than $263,000.00 given this fund alone. This does not include any money raised in the churches for local purposes or for the payment of salaries to presiding elders and pastors, nor does it include any of the thousands of dollars on general days for mission work, church extension or education, nor the thousands of dollars raised in rallies. The report of the Secretary of Church Extension society shows benefactions from May 1892 to March 31, 1920 amounted to $46,245.94, Dr. B. P. Watson is secretary-treasurer and from his report we should judge he has been the best ever. He asks for re-election. Dr. Ransom's report on the A. M. E. Church Review shows total receipts for the quadrennium, $11,514-28; Expenditures, $11,362, 68, leaving a balance of $151.60 Wednesday was given over to routine business and much was done. The Musical Recital Wednesday was a brilliant success. Ms. Garvey scored a signal success in her initial appearance in audience of 5,000 persons was present and the general verdict is that she has lost none of her vocal charms and her rich contralto voice was as good, if not better than when she left her home in St Louis 17 years ago. The general forecast is that at the present rate, the Conference is expediting business, the Conference will probably adjourn a week earlier than usual as the report and schedule up to date is estimated by delegates are four days ahead of any previous session. COURT REMOVES OFFICERS OF THE G. U. O. O. F. ODD FELLOWS Jury Holds Colored Lodge Officials Had No Right To Call Off Election Chicago, Ill.

The secretary of Mayor Kiel gave an enthusiastic welcome address. Governor Gardner, who was billed also to address the Conference did not appear. TUESDAY. MORNING SESSION MORNING SESSION. After the usual devotions, Bishop Flipper of Atlanta delivered a most inspiring Episcopal address. This lengthy address went into the details of all departments of work, under the direction of the Conference and revealed wonderful success in all branches of the work. When the Bishop announced that the Dollar Money raised during the last quadrannual exceeded a million dollars, the applause was hearty indeed. The secretary then called the roll of delegates and some 1500 responded to the roll cult. The secretary) then announced the various committees and their places and time of meeting. Committee on Organic Union between the several Colored Methodist churches was appointed to which was referred resolutions favoring such a Union Report of the Rev. R. R. Wright, Jr. Editor of The Christian Recorder and manager of The Book Concern was cheered. A few intense moments followed a motion to lay the Resolution on Organic Union on the table. Bishop Flipper's keynote speech proclaimed the widest comment. A symposium of which follows: Five thousand members of the church attended the meeting and among them delegates from Africa, South America, India, China and other nations Fifteen bishops were present. Prior to the Collisseum meeting services were conducted at St. Paul A. M. B. Church and the members of the congregation marched from the church to the Collisseum. Bishop Flipper denounced mob violence in strongest terms in his address "Wherever mob violence holds away," said Bishop Flipper, "It dishonors the highest principles of justice, prostrates law in the dust of vestige of jurisprudence, declimates the security and sanctity of the courts of legal procedure and swathes in shame and disgrace the holiest attributes of righteousness. It sweeps helward the intent and purpose of the Almighty in the betterment and elevation of the human family and robes in blackest darkness the injunction to "love one another as a have loved you." Hideous and heinous to the extreme degree is mob violence that knows no restraint, no reason, and in fire and blood destroys life and property with impunity. Speaking of divorce, Bishop Flipper said that divorce threatens the well-being of children and to an extent nullifies the commandment, "Honor thy father and thy mother," "This of itself is one of the saddest commentaries that can be written upon divorce. Upon this question the church should assume a determined attitude and occupy no neutral ground. It should say that no divorce shall receive its sanction." In speaking of marriage he declared that it could reach its holiest state only when there was one moral standard for both women and men. "The church should insist upon this attitude," he said, "and it has a right to do so because the eternal God, by His institution of marriage, gave it the sacredness attached to it and did not differentiate between the morality and sanctity of the sexes." Speaking of the practice of taking the Negro's vote from him, Bishop Hipper declared that if every father would place his child in school at the age of 6 and keep him there until he had attained his majority, "we can and will wipe out every disfranchisement law from the statute books of every Southern state. Then let the Negro lift his voice for a progressive and aggressive campaign of edu- Topeka HORTON, KANSAS. TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING, MAY 7, 1920 --- Copeka TOPEKA, KANSAS, FI ference S To A Step Forward THE PLAINDEALER ADDS A "BIG LEAGUER"—INFUSION OF NEW BLOOD MEANS A GREATER AND BIGGER PAPER --- These lines will introduce to our large and growing family of readers, Mr. Arthur D. Williams, a big league newpaper man, who comes to The Plaindealer from the Indianapolis (Ind.) Ledger. Mr. Williams possesses speed, curves and control—all of the necessary prerequisites to hold a place in the front rank of newspaperdom. He is a writer of marked ability, having developed the "sport" page of The Ledger and brought it up to where it was recognized as one of the foremost of similar features carried by American newspapers. As a printer, he stands out boldly in class A, and the cunning of his crafty hand will add to the pleasure of Plaindealer readers. He is rich in education, culture and refinement, and also an advanced thinker along lines pertaining to the race, which ideas will be visible through these columns from time to time. Under the careful guidance of Mr. Williams, The Plaindealer hopes to make a step forward along both mechanical and literary lines. This brief introduction to one of the race's foremost artists, is also a welcome by our working force, who are happy over the infusion of new blood. Six months after the borning of the Topeka Plaindealer, the writer came to the cradle of the then restless infant and took up a vigil that has hated from that day to the present. We tucked the tattered covers gently around its frall form and nursed the youngster tenderly; administering to every want, and at the same time hoping and praying that Providence would permit the child to develop into a strong, healthy creature that would be able to stand alone and successfully combat who dared to commit an assault upon the "man fartherest down." Time and again we thought the youngster had breathed for the last time, but we never lost hope, nor did we desert our post beside the cradle of the child who seemed "of but a few days and full of trouble." Twenty years have passed since that eventful time, and we smile now as we gaze into the strong, rugged face of this mighty giant. We are justly proud too, because of the many who started, all became discouraged, and left us to hear the cross alone. Several have answered the call of "380" and joined the great hosts in the beyond. A shade of sadness creeps over as we recall the names of each individual. They were very near and dear, and hold a place in our heart and memory that will endure throughout life. We are saving goodbye now. The hills are calling, and we long for the scenes of boyhood days, and now that this great Moral Guide and Christian Educator is in good, competent hands; shortly we are off for our old home in Southern Kansas, where we will rest for a season and dream of the stirring incidents in the growth and development of The Topeka Plaindealer—Ira Smith.

We Had Enough of Parks Plaindealer Statement of the Subcommittee of Management Elect of G. U. O. of The New Officera Address the Fraternity and the Country. To all Lodges and Members of the P. M. G Councils and Juveniles— Greetings: No man is fit to be a Grand Officer of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows in America unless he regards himself as the servant of the Order and not as its master. It is in this spirit that we are prepared to face the great responsibilities which rest upon us as our Grand Officers Elect After a full and fair trial in Court of Common Pleas No 3 in the city of Philadelphia, before an impartial judge and jury, a unanimous verdict was rendered on April 23, 1920, that we are the officers and members of the Subcommittee of Management duly elected at the Ninetenth B M. G. An effort will, of course, be made to have the verdict set aside by the court in which the case was tried. Whatever the result of this effort may be, the case will be carried to the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, and we are confident that by that tribunal the finding of the jury will be approved. We are accordingly preparing to take over the duties of the Subcommittee on Management as soon as the Supreme Court directs that judgment be entered upon decision is final and therefore you must not allow yourselves to be disturbed by any reports or rumors of any immediate proceeding. Meanwhile we ask you to note the following important points: 1. It results from the verdict that the next regular and constitutional B M C is the B. M. C, which will assemble in Wilmington, Delaware, on September 11, 1920. 2. As many lodges as possible should choose delegates to the Wilmington B. M. C. and should forward their credentials to Brother Robert J Nelson, Grand Secretary Elect, at the Armstrong Building, 1114 Longhill street, Philadelphia, Pa. We have opened a temporary office at this address until possession of the permanent offices of the subcommittee of Management has been delivered to us by the court 3. To present complications of accounts, we advise lodges for the present to continue to make remittances to Brother James F. Needham, at Twelfth and Spruce streets, Philadelphia. In due time he will be required to account to Grand Secretary Elect Nelson, so that lodges remitting to him will get the credits to which they are entitled. 4. With so many forces tending to pull the people of this country apart, this is no time for holding rival conventions within the limits of a patriotic Order like ours. If Brother Morris attempts to hold a convention in New York City he will be taking a wholly unnecessary step. We say this because all properly qualified delegates attending the B M. C., in Wilmington will be assured of a square deal and a fair chance to vote. 5. We have no means of knowing what statements will be made to you by Brother Morris and the other Grand Officers whom we have been elected to succeed. If, however, you desire correct and impartial information you can get it by communicating with Brother Nelson at the above address, or by writing direct to our counsel. Hon George Wharton Pepper, 2231 Land Title Building, Philadelphia, Pa 6 There is no truth in the report that we propose to move the headquarters of the Order away from Philadelphia or to make any change in its policy except to give the lodges more influence in the decision of important questions and to substitute strict economy in management for what we believe has been a lavish expenditure of your money. We have no revolutionary plan. We propose to conserve and build up the Order. If statements are made to the contrary, they will be willfully and maliciously false. We beg to remain. faithfully and fraternally yours, (Signed) John S. Noel, Grand Master Elect W T. Francis, Deputy Grand Master Elect, R. J. Nelson, Grand Secretary Elect, Chas H. Colburn, W T.

AND OKLAHOMA EDITOR Following is a copy of a letter which was sent to the Editor of The Times-Democrat, a paper of Muskogee, Oklahoma: Ms. Leonard Dear Editor: I note in a clipping from your paper that you seek to criticise Gov. Allen for refusing to honor the requisition of Gov. Brough a short time ago. You have been, I understand, guardian for Sarah Rector, a Colored millionaire, who recently attained her majority. You drew three thousand dollars a year and I presume that your paper is backed by Negro subccribers and guardianship money. This shows how mean decedettle some white men can be and also how low they can be at times. When you were handling the Rector money, you no doubt were filled with smiles and wanted to see the Race progress. You never earned three thousand dollars as guardian of this money but being easy money and coming from Colored people, you evidently did not care what salary you demanded. If you had attended a mixed school you would not have written such an article as Kansas mixed schools and all others for that matter are helpful to both races and from the tone of an editorial like this I would say that you need to be in a mixed school all the rest of your life in order to learn that all people of America are entitled to civil rights. I hope that you could come up to Kansas, a state where a man is a man, come up to Kansas and learn something of the ways of civilized people. Don't stay in a land where your own class are ignorant, and relless, come I say, and view with your own eyes how peaceful the white and Colored get along under the same tutoring and under the same building without any warring faction whatever. Of course, I don't think that one like you who would write such an editorial would be allowed to attend a Kansas nosed school or college. Trusting that you will soon right your wrong way, I remain. NICK CULLES Editor, Tomerka Platlander Pres. Kansas Defense Society Governor Allen refused to honor a requisition from the governor of Arkansas for Robert Hill. Negro, charged with being a leader of the Negro uprising at Elaine. But then what could out expect of a state where negroes are allowed to attend school with the whites.—March 24, 1920. The following is a copy of a letter which was sent to Rep. Caraway, following a speech he made on the subject of Military Training Rep. Caraway, Rep. from Arkansas. Washington, D. C., Dear Sir: This statement shows the kind of stuff that the Arkansas men are made of. As long as your state produces no Colored men to represent it in public offices, and in state department you cannot expect to be recognized by intelligent states of the north, west, and east. But as long as such ignorant representatives as you, Mr. Craway, continue in office nothing except the slogan "Down with the Negro" can hardly be expected. It shows that you are not acquainted with the History of America nor of the part taken by the Colored man in the wars of this country to protect their flag. Now in reference to the Negro not developing National Pride, I only have to call your attention to the history made by Robert Brown Elliot, member of Congress from South Carolina during the days of reconstruction Also senator Bruce of Mississippi and one hundred other Colored men who have associated in enacting laws, not only for the Nation but for various states. Others have had National Pride and have upheld the Constitution of the states in which they lived as well as the constitution of the United States, to which they swore allegiance, when they took the oath of office. This is more than can be said of some white men who have broken the oath, and probably you yourself. I wish to call your attention to the days of reconstruction during period from 1868—1873. There were several Colored men who served as members of the legislature. There were also eight Colored delegates who assisted in framing the constitution of the State of Arkansas. I wish to call your attention to the proceedings of the convention, record page 205. There were never less than seven members and some time as many as 11-12-13-14 in the various legislatures up to the time of '73 when the bill dosing tactics of such men as you who seek unlawfulness and other member of the Senate, and G. W. of politics were installed. J. W. Mason one of the leading member of the Senate. G. W. Price $1.50 Per Year Of Race FEW RAPS AT D OKLAHOMA EDITOR al Pride Manifested g Reconstruction. Gray helped to make some of the best laws on the statute books of your state. The Arkansas Times of January 12, 1873 says of the Negro members of Congress: "There are a few men among those Colored men who are bright and intelligent and much superior to some white men, but as a rule this is not the case." This ought to conclusively prove to you and other Negro natives that the Colored men are just as high up to civilization as the average white man, for the length of time he has been free, and the opportunities he has had. He has been progressive along industrial lines, and has developed a special pride in obeying the law and respecting the rights of his fellow man, and their obedience to their country should be an ideal for human beings to worship. His loyalty to his religion is as good as the average white man but there is room for a great deal of improvement in both races. His eye is as good for running—the government as anyone else, for he firmly believes in law and order. If what you say is true that he is an imitator, I will say here that he has made a pretty fair job at that for it looks to us that your class is doing nothing but imitating. If you will refer your thots to your fellow man as you should, then that disease will not be found in your own race and all this dissention between races would stop. The Golden Rule worshipers are not imitators, and those who profess to be Christians and following in the foot steps of the Sailor and do not live in a way near the command, then they are real imitators. You must remember that the Colored man has only been in freedom for 41 years, yet he has developed along social, political, and scientific lines and has made a fair average, just as good as any other race that has come under the scope and jurisdiction of the American civilization. There is no other class of people in the world as exciting as the Southern white man. He has the love of violence even. From the tone of your letter you seem to hold from the Colored man all education and the handling of arms which will make him a loyal and respected citizen. We think that the Southern white man has had too much military training for his own good; it has destroyed his chances for being a laborer or mechanic and consequently a large number of young white men are becoming bank robbers, murderers, and bandits of all description, including the thieves, intimidators, seducers, and plunderers. They boast of the fact that they can outrage Colored women without the fear of law, and in case a Colored man attempts to rescue his relatives, he is beaten, robbed and many times lynched and burned The Southern white man has destroyed his own hopes of ever being respected and as a matter of fact is deterling from the place he now holds, small as it might seem. You are providing little money for real purposes and are not protecting laborers at the law. If Arkansas could afford to send Colored men to represent them in congress they would be a good deal better off and would be recognized by the state and nation as having some one worthy of exchanging respects with, but so long as they send such men as you. No decent man would make such statements as you made concerning his constituents, and would not be ever waiting for a chance to express his own sentiments on a question "Down with the Negro." You are not really representing the majority of voters in your district. You hold the office as many other congressmen from the Southland do, as persons receiving and holding stolen goods. I hope you will become awakened to the fact that you have the wrong way and return to the service of God and man. Very truly yours, NICK CHILKS, Editor Topeka Plaindealer, Pres Kansas Defense Society Following is the statement made by Caraway: April 7th 1920. To The Editor The Topeka Plaindealer, Topeka, Kansas Rep. Caraway's (Arkansas) Idea On the Question of Universal Training Vs The Negro. 1. Universal military service presents to our Southern people a more serious problem. The Negro is a peculiar being. We who have lived with him all our lives do not know him. We generously recognize his limitations and his weaknesses. We know he has developed no national pride, no national ideals.

New Jersey Chemist offers generous supply of the wonderful remedy free. No wonder Mrs. Jackson is anxious to have the whole world know what Dr. Kline's Epileptic Remedy did for her. Doctors tried and failed to help her. Fifteen convulsions in three hours is a terrific experience. But Mrs. Jackson is well now. Read how it all happened. About six years ago I was taken with convulsions. I had fifteen convulsions in about three hours. I had two doctors with me and two others to the hospital and there did for three weeks before I knew where I was. I stayed at the hospital for four weeks. Then my husband and I had several attacks of convulsions. A little over two years ago when I had four very hard convulsions, at one time, a lady friend told me to try anything as I was troubled so severely, I got one bottle and took it and it made me feel a little better, so my husband said to continue trying anything as I was troubled so severely, I never felt better in my life. If this better will help anybody that has that kind of trouble, I hope they will take your Luteleia Remedy, as I believe it will make me very happy. (Signed) Mr. W. G.

His progress, what it is, is imitative. He is vain, easily excited, quick to use violence. If handled carefully and intelligently he makes fairly good farm help. Arm him, train him, and he ceases to display those virtues of obedience and industry. He will no longer be content to farm. He will no longer be obedient to civil authority. We have seen these results from our recent experience with him. We dare not disregard this experience, who live in the South. But on the other hand, if he leaves our southern farms he goes to northern cities and brings with him new problems, social and economic, for you of the north, who least understand him. Itace riots recently in East St. Louis, Chicago, and Washington proves this.
