Bell, Masonic Grand Orator, who presented to the Grand Lodge at Chanute, the case of the imprisoned members of the 24th Infantry. Counsel for the Kansas Defense Society. Prince Hall Grand Lodge, Royal Arch Chapter and Commandry held their annual session at Chanute, Kansas last week. Everything went off in fine order and in harmony. The Chapter met on Monday and transacted business of much importance to the good of the order. The following officers were elected: On Tuesday the Commandry met with a large attendance. Considerable time was devoted to routine business. Several members leaving to go to Cincinnati to attend the National Conclave. On Wednesday morning the Grand Master, H. L. Monroe, called the Man- Dr. J. G. N. Soanes, Dep Prominent in Mason ons to order for the transaction of business, at Central Park where the addresses of welcome on the part of the city churches and lodges were made and responses by the visiting Masons. Prayer was offered by the Rev. Johnson of Osawatomie and the Grand Chaplain, Bro Fred Estes. A beautiful solo was rendered by Mr. N. H. Campbell who was followed by Mrs. Beulah Gaston Williams who rendered a most inspiring solo. The address by the Mayor, Hon. J. J. Hunt was well received and caused much applause. He drove several points home to his hearers and added much vim to the occasion. Every one expressed the utmost satisfaction at his speech on behalf of the city. We compliment Mayor Hunt on getting away from the usual custom of white municipal officers who address Negro audiences and who invariably use the terms, "You people" and "Your people." It was not so with this mayor and he Hon. T. W. Bell, Masonic Gr to the Grand Lodge at Chas prisoned members of the 24 the Kansas Defense Society. addressed the body as Brother Mason and Follow Americans. He spoke as he would have spoken to any similar audience at any place. In speaking of the race, he gave credit for its loyalty and fidelity to the flag of this country and expressed hopes that they would receive the full benefits and rights thereof, just the same as any other nationality, and had bravely fought and established the same on the battle fields of France. "The Past Master, a young man who was born in Chanute, remarked that he "was pleased to have the pleasure and opportunity to meet such a splenifraternal societies of Chanute," "Brethron," said he, "and I am proud to say that we are all brothers, and should live as such. I went to school with several young colored men, some of whom I see here today, old audience and especially such a fine looking body of Mangas and to buty Grand Master Elect ic Circles of the state Welcome them on behalf of the and I am proud of them. I want the American Negro to have and enjoy the same opportunity that all other races have in this country. The constitution guarantees it and it is due them." On behalf of the churches of the city, Rev Gray, pastor of one of the white churches, made welcome remarks. He said in part that "the world had produced no better race of people than the Negro." He also seemed delighted to address the body as brethern. He was enthusiastic and loud in his praise of the body assembled. The Rev. J. D. Hunt, also welcomed the visiting officers and members on behalf of the churches. He paid a splendid tribute to the Masone order. Mr. J. B. Odair on behalf of Blue Eagle Lodge assured the Grand Lodge that the members of Blue Eagle Lodge and the ladies of the Eastern Star would see to it that Grand Orator, who presented minute, the case of the [m- 4th Infantry. Counsel] for their stay would be made pleasant. He eloquently denounced the lynch- ing and burning of the race and sug- grated a National law which will pro- bibit such outrages on the Negro. The responses by P. G. Na. E. J. TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING. AUGUST 20, 1920 THE NEW YORK TIMES Mr. Nathan T.

Some lodges are buying property and others have good balances in the bank. sruaa vbkg mfewonjinlnilni ojem f Grand Master II, I. Monroe reported a flourishing year's work from all departments. The Masonic farm at Neely was sold to Dio, Lon King, a Masonic member, for the sum of $47,000. The farm was purchased about nine years ago for a consideration of $42,000. The Grand Master recommended that the money be kept in fact until another suitable place could be found and purchased. Seventy five deaths were reported during the year and in view of this, an assessment of $1,000 was made to increase the endowment department. The membership was increased near-1,500 since the last session. At the close of the Grand Officers reports, the business of the election of officers was held at which time the same officers were elected, with the exception of Deputy Grand Master, G. A.

The entertainments at Moose Hall and the Academy of Music were attended by large crowds, people coming from the surrounding towns to mingle with the visiting delegates and to partake of the festivities occasioned by the Grand Lodge session. Much credit is due the local committee on arrangements of Blue Eagle lodge and the ladies of the Eastern Star for the magnificent entertainment recorded the session. Every one was highly pleased with the accommodations, the food and everything moved on in peace and harmony. The local committee is as follows Bros.

Elisha Scott of Topeka and E. T. Barbour of El Reno, Okla. These able lawyers have been employed by the Kansas Defense Society to fight this case and have carried it to the highest court in this district to be heard at the fall term. The Grand lodge gave $104,00 to assist in preparing briefs, etc. KAN$AS NEGRO NOMINATED FOR STATE LEGISLATURE. Kansas City, Kansas—J. H.

COLORED MAN CLEARLY NOT WANTED AT DAYTON Welcomeed at Harding's Home, but Given Scant Place at Cox Ceremonies. Chicago. Aug.—With the formal notification of the opposing candidates for President over, it is understood that the campaign is on to the finish; but it remains to make a few observations contrasting the two events. Representatives of the colored race from all over the country made a pilgrimage to Marion to do honor to the Republican candidate, and were hospitably and amply cared for in the arrangements, while the very atmosphere of the Democratic gathering at Davison was fraught with indications that the occasion was not the colored man's meeting.

King, Chairman, Committee on Foreign Correspondence, who was re-elected without opposition Bad Bait Grant M. Hamilton of Judg. Oakland, Cal., Aug. 12, 1920. To the Editor of the Plaindealer: Permit me a small space in your wonderful paper which I have been reading since I have been in the west on my vacation. I enjoy this lovely climate and the beautiful flowers. The roads in California are the best I ever saw. I went 146 miles over the Tunnel Drive and through the canyons we found the best paved roads and the big car we had swing so easily along around the curves. I have just returned from Westwood, a town 411 miles from San Francisco. This town is in the mountains 5575 ft. above the level of the sea. On the morning of 6th, 5th and 10th of August, the grass was full of jellies where it had been watered on the night before. It begins to get cold about 4 60 p. m. and by 9, 00 at night we had to turn on all the steam we could get. It remained cold until about 11 o'clock in the morning then it got hot and I never saw weather Prof. J. P. King, Chairman, respondent, who was re-elected. of the Prince Hall Grand Lodge, A. F. and A. M. of the state of Kansas. President of the Christian Endeavor of Kansas and President of the Kansas City branch of the National Association for th Advancement of Colored People, and is deeply interested in all phases of uplift work. Every person who is interested in a bigger, better, cleaner Tulsa, should come to the Forum at the high school, Sunday afternoon to greet Professor Gregg and bid him welcome to Tulsa. VERNON, OKLA. The farmers around Vernon are feeling very good over the prospects of cotton for this season. Hay making is on and quite a number of the farmers are billing large quantities The Jefferson Highway which is being built thru our counts and town is much enjoyed by the citizens of Vernon and neighborhood. The new autos of Vernon can be seen humming along Broadway most any day. Bad Price $1.50 Per Year THE GOLDEN WEST HT IN AIR PLANE In the Philippines as hot as it was there from 11:00 a.m. until 4:00 blessed me. He has permitted me to go around this world with the Montgomery family in 1912 and 1913. Then I was fortunate to get with another wealthy family who brought me to this wonderful place where millionaires live. And now another chapter has been added to my history, on August the 10th we boarded an aeroplane and had a 6 hour flight, when we first started up my heart felt just like it did when I first went in the ocean swimming in France in 1912, but as I went higher and higher, I began to enjoy it very much. I had many other experiences I shall tell the people when I return to Kansas. I get the Plainlander regularly and enjoy reading it very much. respectfully yours. M. D. Jones. 1216—38th Avenue.
