EDWARD ROONEY ANNOUNCES CANDIDACY FOR OFFICE OF ATTORNEY GENERAL One of the Most Successful Attorneys of the State and One Who is Well Qualified for the Position Which He Seeks. The first paragraph in the announcement of Edward Rooney, wellknown and popular Topeka lawyer sounds good to every Colored man, woman and child in the state of Kansas. He states that he will administer the duties of the office "without reference to class or conditions." Sounds good, does it not? Well, we can say this for Mr. Rooney, he is made of just that kind of material and the things that come under the jurisdiction of his office, whether those concerned be black or white, rich or poor, he will see that justice is done to the best of his belief. If Ed. Rooney commits a wrong, it is an error of the head, for his heart heats true. In sizing up candidates for the important office of Attorney General, the Colored people should look well before making up their minds upon a man. They should first make sure that he is of the kind and character who places duty, justice and fair play above creed, color or religion. He should be a man, bold and brave enough to say "they shall not pass," when Thos. Dixon and his "Birth of a Nation" and similar plays seek admission to Kansas, because such violent thunder is not only an injustice but works a hardship upon a race of people who are loyal to the state and true to the Government, and they should be protected against such viciousness and unwarranted attacks. --- No 29 THE RACE PROGRESS IN OKLA. Boley, Oklahoma Thriving Colored Town Seeks Negro National Bank CLEARVIEW, OKLA—This is a small town with a few stores, postoffice, one school, one church and one college. It is a fine farming community and the Colored people own several farms in the vicinity and are an industrious, intelligent people. This is a fine country but needs development. Men with money can do well at Clearview. Here is found a lady postmistress who owns valuable property, she is efficient and one of the best in the service of the government. A. L. Walker, section foreman of the F. S. and W. R. R. keeps the best section on the road. He works from five to ten men. He owns a nice home and is quite progressive. He has been with the company for 16 years. Here is where we met S. W. Franklin, father of twenty one living children, the youngest is three years of age. He is looking for another soon. He is a man 43 years of age and his wife 39. A few couples like this will soon make the town a prosperous and growing population. We spoke at the closing exercises of the public school. We never witnessed a finer program. The pupils are all bright and intelligent. The teaching force is well prepared and competent. A new building is an urgent need. Mr. J. W. Thompson, one of the assistant principle is one of Oklahoma's leading educators. He is a lawyer by profession, having been admitted to the bar in 1909. He is now preparing to practice his profession. Prof. Martin is the principal and is a clean cut race man and will push the improvement plan of the new school. John Horn is a prosperous farmer and race man. C. W. Bush owns a fine restaurant and confectionery H. L. Oliver and company have opened a new store and are doing nicely. W. M. Irvin and wife are running a nice, clean grocery store and are doing a splendid business. The town is proud of them. The doctor and druggist at this place are doing a good business and are well thought of by the citizens. We visited Boley, the only real live town in this country owned and operated entirely by Colored people. It has a population of about 2500. It runs 14 miles north, 10 miles south, 8 miles west and 6 miles east from the town. Some of the best farm lands and the best farms and stock growers to be found anywhere, are found here in Boley. The town has one bank in operation and is preparing for the organization and opening of another. Negroes have on deposit in this bank something over $200 000. They also have on deposit in the banks in the surrounding towns (in the white man's bank) over a half million dollars. It seems to be the opinion in Boley, from reliable people who are in a position to know whereof they speak, that the white bankers in this section seem to have entered into a combine to prevent the Colored people from organizing a new National Bank in Boley and have gone so far as to entice the Colored banker to join in with them in this movement. This in the general rumor around Boley. In an interview with one of the bank officers, we were informed that a new bank was not necessary as the Colored people did not need it." When asked the reason why, he remarked that the men who are behind the new bank project did not know how to manage a bank." Now this fellow who made the statement never knew what a bank was intended for a few years before he came to Boley. In fact, he did not know how to sweep out a bank in Texas. He did not know what to teepers were in the early days of Boley, when they sold money to the people and wild-casted the banking business. This Colored man struck it lucky. With the assistance of a few brainy Colored men who kept the books and who really were the cause of this Colored man's success, now joins in with the white man who hates him as much as he does the other Colored men who are trying to bring about more prosperity for the race. This Colored fossilite is in his own light and will see the error of his way when it is too late. The sun is too high and the race is too far from the shadows of slavery for the "old Marse John" darkey to sit on the lid and carry the news of what the race is doing. They want the world to know what they are doing and are showing the white man they are not slipping or dodging. The true blooded Negro business men of Boley and the farmers of that locality want another bank. They are fully able to support two banks. This Colored brother seems to be afraid of the other bank. If he has been square with the people, he will have nothing to fear, but his bank will double its business. He ought to make up and be friends to the Race which made him. Boley is growing rapidly, everybody is busy. All kinds of improvements are being made. The town is in need of a lumber yard, a produce and commission company and other enterprises. There is also sufficient room and business for another bank. The U. B. F. Grand Lodge laid the corner stone the Sunday we were Topeka Plaindealer BOLEY, OKLA. TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING.

Smith, a Real Friend UNDER THE DATE OF JULY THE 10th, MISS EDNA GREENE FOR YEARS STENOGRAPHER AND BUSINESS MANAGER FOR THE PLAINDEALER, WRITES as follows from Alberpuerque, New Mex., concerning the candidacy of Hon. Tom D. Smith, of Hiawatha, candidate for Judge of the Supreme Court, Seventh position. Miss Greene is well known throughout the state and was born, reared and educated in the public schools of Hiawatha. She says among other things: "Away out here in these hills, my mind wanders back to Kansas and Kansas, and more so since the primaries are so near. I deeply regret that circumstances will not permit my return home to participate in the grand fadie, but I am hoping, praying and trusting that my people will not go amiss in selecting men for such important places as the judiciary. In selecting men for Supreme Court they should exercise grave care, and see that they are thoroughly embud with the spirit of faithness and unblinded with prejudice of race—a disease so prevalent with white Americans. "On the Republican ticker, seventh position, will be found the name of Mr. Tom D. Smith, lawyer, statesman, diplomat, and above all, a man who is absolutely without prejudice. I have known Mr. Smith all of my life, and in him the race has never had a truer friend. He is the one white man in Brown County to whom the Colored people look when their rights are being trampled upon and he has never failed to respond. All thru the years that I can recall, Tom D. Smith has been contending for fair treatment of our people in Brown County, and we would have suffered on many occasions had he been afflicted with colormphobia. "Rambling thru the musty files of The Topeka Plaindealer of several years back, I find the story of "The Lowman Hill's School Case." This was an action in which Colored children in Topeka were denied the privilege of a handsome, modern brick school and were crowded off into a frame shack, several blocks away in a location that had been declared unsanitary. The matter was checked up to the State Supreme Court, the brief being illustrated with a picture of the palace and the shack. After a few months the court handed down a decision against the Colored people citing law from Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia and other "hot" places to justify their action. How many times have Negroes ever received a decision before this court? I don't recall any during my day and time. I want to say right here that if Tom D. Smith is placed upon the Supreme bench, law only will guide his action, and he would never go South for citations in cases where the rights of black folks are involved. I want my friends to take notice and not forget him August 3rd. He is pure cold and no over friend of the Colored race—individually and collectively, has never been wrapped up in that much white hide. EDNA GREENE. 510 W Lead. --- in the city for an Old Polks and Orphan's Home, a handsome two story stone building on forty acres of land. It is situated one half mile west of Boley, which will cost several thousands of dollars. Grand Master. S. A Jefferson of the Old Polks Grand Lodge of Oklahoma and other Grand Officers, the I. B. F. Grand Officers and local lodges assisting in the exercises, which lasted during the morning, afternoon and evening in the Masonic Hall. Several hundred dollars were raised by the U. B. F. Grand Officers and members for the Home. The parade from the hall to the Home was a spectacular affair and was participated in by several hundred members and witnessed by thousands of proud spectators. Master of Ceremonies, Grand Master, Jefferson is certainly an authority on the laying of corner stones. This order is very popular around Boley and has a large membership. BOYNTON. OKLA. We have made a number of trips to this place, but for the first time we had the pleasure of visiting the home of Mr. George W. Davis who resides five miles northwest of Boston. We had heard so much of him and his many accomplishments, that we were anxious to see and greet him. Here was our opportunity and well did we appreciate it. In traveling toward his place about a mile out of town we discovered that most every farm passed on either side was owned by Mr. Davis or he had helped some one to purchase same. He owns and controls several hundred acres of fertile land and on each farm he has a bungalow, a large barn and out houses for his tentants. His farms are all well cared for and his policy is to give his tenants the best conveniences money will afford. Mr. Davis is one of the most successful farmers and stock growers in Oklahoma. He owns a large herd of Aberdeen cattle and three bulls whose sires sold for $40,000 and has 53 champions to their credit. Besides this herd, he has something like 2000 head of cattle, hogs, horses and mules. He grows wheat, corn alfalfa, oats and other farm products in large quantities, besides the large income from the crop of his tentant Mr. Davis also owns and controls thirty-five producing oil wells with pipe lines running forty miles to the City of Tulsa. Three of his wells are producing as much as 3000 barrels per day with an income of ten thousand and dollars per month. Mr. Davis was born within one mile of where he now resides, Muskogee county. He attended Lincoln Institute at Jefferson City, Mo. and at Hampton Institute in Virginia. He has a wife, one son and a daughter. The two children are now attending school at Emporia, Kansas, and make their home with Mrs. David Tipton, on Congress St. of that city. During their vacation they are at home with their parents. The little Miss is a bright little lady and is learning well in her studies. Master Russell who is just 16 weighs 100 pounds, is easily worth some three hundred thousand dollars. He is a little oil king and his father is investing his money in farm and oil lands and buying honds. He was fortunate indeed in being born just in time to inherit some good fol lands. His parents, grand parents are natives of Oklahoma and came in for their share Mr Davis' mansion name was Mr me Neville. She I am an accomplished lady who delight in making, but home inviting and charming for her husband and children. They have a beautiful nine room, modern in every respect, in fact it is a fine country home with city conveniences. A beautiful lawn surrounds the home adorned with shrubbies and flowers from whence the cool evening breeze brings to one's nose the delightful odor of fragrant blossoms which makes the visitor feel at home with no desire to leave, but remain there forever. Mrs. Davis is an enthusiast in chicken raising and has large yard and run containing several hundred fowls in which she takes delight. It was a pleasure supreme to gaze upon those tempting looking springers, but alas, we did not linger long enough to partake thereof. We felt however, our ability to hold our own at the Davis' table whenever the table is adorned with those felulous fowls. We pronounce Mrs. Davis an ideal home maker as she shows that cultured taste and arrangement of one who takes pleasure in the care of the home. We found Mr Davis to be a three race man, having the complete confidence in the Race to the extent that all his farms are rented to Colored people. He does not lend any encouragement whatever to the white man and says he does not want them as he finds that at the best they cause or attempt to cause him trouble. His Colored tenants are all doing well and raising crops. His advice to them is to buy farms as soon as enough money can be asked to make the first payment. He has tenants with him who have done business with him for twelve years, loathe to leave on account of his fairness and square dealing. He is a very liberal and free hearted and always ready to lend a helping hand to the needy. one. He is an exception to the rule in that he cares very little for the white man and does not attempt to buy recognition or seek his assistance in handling his affairs. His long experience has taught him that the white man is simply after the dollar and has no other motive in hanging around a Colored man. They tried to prevent him from being appointed guardian for his own son, as well as other guardianships to which he has been appointed, in some of these cases they have succeeded. Mr. Davis is very liberal to the public institutions and takes great interest in those which he finds to be worthy. The Pipper Key Dakota College at Tullahassee bears his name in connection with others where he has given hundreds of dollars and is sure to give more as long as the school is run on a business basis and properly managed. We can safely say that for the first time to our knowledge we have found a truly race man who is square with his race. He is in a class by himself, and one who is able to do things for the race without the aid and assistance of the white man. He feels that the Colored is capable of managing and looking after his own affairs and is setting an example by managing and looking after the affairs of himself and family. The family enjoys the convenience of a large touring car and speed a large part of their spare moment in enjoying it. Long live the Davis family and may peace and prosperity continue to abide within their home. TOMMY MR. 8AM CALLAHAN We had the pleasure of meeting one of the most substantial retired farmers in this section, Mr. Sam Callahan who was born in 1862 in the Southland. In 1873 he married and several years later came to Boley with his wife, several children and a few dollars, but with a strong determination to better his condition and accomplish something He bought a farm and started out farming and from the very beginning he had success with his crops. He worked hard, treated his neighbors right and prosperity seemingly jumped to him and now at his mature age he can look the whole world in the face and say come on everybody if I owe you present your bill and I will settle it. He is worth many thousands of dollars, owns 900 acres of land in Okunkeen county, farms in other counties and states. He has given each of his six children a farm. He also has 32 grand children. He is a benefactor to his rate and loans thousands of dollars each year to Colored farmers. At his invitation we went into his private office and looked at notes from farmers whom he had loaned large sums of money and also certificates of deposit for several thousands of dollars on deposit in this Colored man's bank. He stands well and he said to us in a conservation, "my reason for showing you how I stand financially is, that I want to see another bank in this town We need it badly. I keep my money in the other bank and will continue to do so, but I want to help the other bank. Mr Callahan is exceedingly anxious to see Boley grow and expand and is using his influence and money to that extent. He has gained the absolute confidence of the citizens and also handicapped by slavery by not having learned to read or write, he is one of the most conservative and intelligent business men of the town. Mr. and Mrs. Callahan after their forty years of happy married life are in good health. She being a praying Methodist, does the praying as he is too busy looking after the business at hand. W. E. (BILL) ANDERSON The many friends of Mr. W. E. (Bill) Anderson, Republican candidate for Clerk of the District Court are working overtime in their effort to put him over at the primaries in August 3, and they say he is going to win. Bill is one of the finest young fellows in Kansas, born, reared and educated in Shawnee county and comes before the people with a good clean record both as a cliffson and a soldier. He knows the work of the office he seeks, and if elected would render invaluable service. Like his patriotic father, he believes in equal rights and justice to all men, and by putting it into practice he has a fine following among the Colored people. Many of the young men and women of the race attended school with Mr. Anderson, and this crowd is for him strong. He solicits your vote and support at the primaries and promises you will have nothing to regret if he is successful. Entered at the Postoffice at Topeka, Kansas as Second Class Mail Matter.

We take pleasure in acquainting the many readers of The Plaindealer with the candidacy of Mr Paul Heinz, an honored member of the Shawnee County Bar, who desires to serve the citizens and taxpayers as judge of the Court of Tochka. He has the experience and his thorough knowledge of the law together with a spirit to treat all men fair, ably fits him for the office he seeks. He has been a practising attorney for eight years; city police judge 18 months; city prosecutor 18 months and he has made good in each place he served. Paul Heinz needs no introduction to the Colored voters, having been born in and a resident of Topeka over thirty years. They have watched him grow from a wee tot into a useful citizen—a man worthy of honor, trust and respect. He is well liked because races and religion cut no ice when it comes to a decision where justice and fair play are being trampled under foot. Mr. Heinz is a true blue Republican and as such is asking your vote and support at the primaries in August. MIC ED BUCKMAN Realizing that the election of a County Commissioner in the Third district rests almost wholly with the colored voters of that district many influential Colored men and women are waging a vigorous campaign for the nomination of Mr. Ed Buckman whose name appears on the Republican ballot to be voted upon at the primaries August 3rd. Mr Buckman is among the largest property holders in Shawnee county, the accumulation of which stands out boldly as a proud and living monument to his thrift, energy and fine business ability. His vast holdings were dug from the soil of Shawnee county where he has farmed for nearly a half century. He is absolutely fair and square in all his business transactions. He knows the location and value of every piece of land in Shawnee county, thus giving him knowledge most valuable and very essential in just assessment which guarantees that all will be taxed alike if he is honored by the voters of the district, and he will use every means to save the people's money and at the same time give them the best that is to be had. Mr. Buckman is not a spend thrift and in case on his nomination and election, would guard the people's money with the same care used in protecting his own bank account. The Colored voters of the district are well acquainted with Mr. Buckman many of whom has dealt with him personally and they praise him for fairness and say that he measures no man by breed, color or religion, and that moral worth and true character are the things that count with him. The Third District comprises the Fifth and Sixth Wards and all the Townships south of the river Mr. Buckman is a staflast Republican always ready to fight the battles of that party and as such is making for your vote and support, if elected promises to deal with all people alike. He will appreciate any assistance you may feel disposed to give him. He is a retired former and qualified in every respect to fill the position DR. O. A. McDONALD ANNOUNCES Prominent Physician Asks for Office. Among the Republican candidate on the ticket will be found the name of Dr O A McDonald, one of Topols's foremost phylans, who desires to serve the people as coroner. He is clean, upright and Honorable and in every respect worthy and well qualified for the important office he seeks, well qualified for the office he seeks. Dr. McDonald is by no means a politician as his large and growing practice would not permit if he so desired. He was forced into the race by his friends and thus it is left with them to push his cause to victory and they are not asleep on the job. The special attention of the Colored voters is called to the candidacy of Dr McDonald because of his fairness and ever ready, helping hand in their struggle to gain justice and a foothold in this land of greed, oppression and race hatred. Dr. McDonald is not of the kind who would seek the suffrage of a Colored man or woman when deep down in his heart permeated a feeling against their forward march toward the goal of prosperity and happiness. Those who know him best say that he believes that every person regardless of creed, color or religion should be given the fullest opportunity and that he would go out of his way to bring this about. Realizing that the election of a coroner with three men in the race, rests with the Colored voters, Dr. McDonald a many Colored friends urge that the race be not deceived, but are asking them to stand by a man who will stand by them. He is a Republican of the old school and has always been true to the principles of the party. Dr. McDonald wants your vote and support at the coming primaries and will feel grateful for any assistance that you might render. LEECH FOR SHERIFF Mr. Frank Leech, Marshall of the Court of Topeka, and one of the few members of the "Old Guard" left in our midst, is making the race (or sheriff of Shawnee County), subject to the will of the Republican primaries August 3rd. Mr. Leech has been in the public life of Topeka and Shawnee County ocnd on for over a quarter of a century and no one can truthfully say that he ever betrayed a trust or went back on a friend. He has never asked for a place which was worth above an ordinary living but has devoted himself, his energy and oftimes cash in futhering the ends of others and boosting them into good jobs. He thinks after all these years of faithful service that something should be passed his way, and is making the support of friends for Sheriff. His experience and qualifications are such as to make him an ideal official if nominated and elected. He has followed this class of work for years and would not be an experiment in this office. As Marshall of the Court of Topeka, he has given the people a splendid administration for four years, being in perfect harmony with the law enforcing bodies of both city and county. Mr. Leech his as his Deputy, Mr. Chas C. Little, one of the best known and most influential men in the city, Mr. Little has served with him for four years, and says that Mr. Leech is not only a splendid official, but a fine man personal; that he is absolutely fair and honorable in all transactions, and that creed, color or religion cut no ice with him, he is for the fair, square thing with everybody and his Colored friends feel that he should receive this small reward for the sacrifice he has made and they are leaving no stone unturned to Lring about his nomination Personally and otherwise, Mr. Cowgill is a fine young man and will appreciate your vote and support at the coming primaries August 3rd. He is a life long Republican and win or lose, he will always be found upholding the banner of the party of Lincoln, Summer and other friends of liberty and justice. HON W. C. BALSTON Much interest is being shown in the candidacy of W C Ralston, who seeks to serve Shawnee County as Probate Judge. For Years he has been foremost among the forces which have kept alive the principles in Republicanism in County and State. He has worked at all times for the success of the arts and his friends say that he is worthy and deserving of the place he seeks and th party owes it to Mr Ralston. He is a man in the prime of life, rich and rich in experience and a lawyer of scholarly attainments backed up with plenty of executive ability, things that would guarantee equal and exact regularity in the conduct of the office of Probate Judge. Mr Ralston is a man of family and the social problems that come before the Probate Judge would be handled from a standpoint of experience. He knows what it is to rear a family and questions of dealing with boys and girls would be handled as he would a personal matter. Mr. Ralston is a clean man, stands well with the Colored people and his fairness to the race is attested by law students in Washburn College who have received instruction at his hands. Not one speaks other than in the highest terms of Mr. Ralston and they say if he is nominated and elected that he will lend valuable assistance to the race in saving wayward boys and girls and that he would lead his energies in seeing that they were given on a chance to make good. Mr. Ralston's friends are numbered among the leading Colored men and women of the city and county, and they are pushing his campaign vigorously. He will appreciate your vote and support at the Republican primaries, August 3rd. HON. RICHARD J. HOPKINS ASKS FOR ANOTHER TERM. For the past two years Richard J Hopkins has served the state of Kansas as attorney general and is now asking for the nomination subject to the Republican primary, August 31 and asks that the Negroes of the state support him as they have done in the past. Mr. Hopkins is well known to the voters of the state having served in a number of responsible positions in the last ten or 12 years. His record a attorney general stands out prominently during the past few months as he made every effort possible to fight down the H. C of L. and the corporations who were profiteering and hording food stuff. This in itself was an important item to Mr. Common Citizen and Mrs. Housewife. He is a staunch Republican and is always found supporting the principles of the party. Attorney Hopkins is an efficient public official and has many friends among the colored people who are assisting him in the fight for a second nomination. DR. H. A. ALEXANDER In the race for coroner of Shawnee County on the Republican ticket will be found the name of Dr. H. A. Alexander, an honored citizen, and one of the city's well known and popular physicians. Dr Alexander made the sacrifice with thousands of other red blooded American boys on the field of conflict in France in the struggle for freedom and democracy. Leaving a growing practice that will take years to reclaim, he is asking the voters of Shawnee County to nominate and elect him to the office of coroner. He is a clean man, of the kind and blood that is not too proud to give a Colored man other than a square, fair, and impartial deal and he thinks and feels that this fact entitles him to consideration at the hands of the race. Some of the city's leaders among the colored race are pushing his cause and doing all in their power to put Dr. Alexander over and say that he is going to win. In our rounds we have get to hear a Colored man or woman say aught against the Doctor, which is clear, that he has been fair and manly in his attitude toward the race. He is a consistent Republican and a believer in the principles as enunciated by Lincoln and other friends of liberty, justice and fair play. Dr. Alexander will feel grateful for any support you feel disposed to give him in the coming primaries. CHIEF HANNAN SAYS HE'LL WIN. Topeka's Chief of Police Feels Sure Of Victory. George G. Hannan, Topeka's efficient Chief of Police and also a Republican candidate for sheriff of Shawnee County, is feeling jubilant over his chances and says he is sure to win the nomination. He has the experience and if honored by the voters of Shawnee County, he will serve the voters and tax payers faithfully and well and no one will have cause to regret. Chief Hammann in discussing his candidacy with a Plaindealer Representative, said among other things, "I've been charged with bidding for the Colored vote thus my action in the much discussed Robert Hill case. I never once thought of using Hill as a political pawn, and simply did my sworn duty as an officer of the law, and also performed a duty that I owe to God and humanity. I don't want the blood of any man upon my head be he black or white. True, I could have taken Hill back to Arkansas and received the $1000 reward and no one would have been any wiser, but I am not out for blood money, and I brought the man to Topeka, where I knew he would receive the help of his Race and the protection of white people who believe in justice and fair play.
