Commissioner of Education We visited the fair of the Langston University, at Langston, Okla, home, of which Professor Marques is president. The fair lasted two days and there were five or six hundred people on the grounds each day. Here is where the colored farmer prospecters, and makes money. Prof. Marques certainly deserves great credit for inaugurating this fair. The exhibits were of all kind, the agricultural and art departments were in the Administration building. We never saw so much fine jelly, preserves, needle work of all descriptions, and other things displayed as here. Several schools from different portions of Oklahoma and surrounding territory were well represented. The farmers exhibited corn, pumpkins, cotton and cereals of all kinds, as fine as we ever saw. Poultry of all kinds, fine hogs and cattle, were to be seen, and horses and mules. The blue ribbons were in evidence and while many had to accept the blue ribbons, yet all vied with each other for the blue. The churches were all given free privileges on the grounds, which extended half a block. Here were found thousands of people enjoying themselves. At the race track we found horse races, running races, trotting and others, showing that our race is progressing rapidly. They are certainly proud of the good work carried on by those good colored men, back of Prof. Marques. He had all kinds of fine hogs, and fine Holstein cattle for the benefit of those farmers who wished to take advantage of this kind of stock.

My representative, Dr. Walton C. John, specialist in land grant college statistics of this bureau, in reporting to me regarding the conditions of the Colored Agricultural and Normal University at Langston, has made the following statements which I believe will be of great interest to you at this time. The last time the institution was visited by my representative, the University was in a serious state of disorder. Dr. John informs me, however, that under the new administrative board and under President Marcouse and his faculty the instit erly supported by the state. I am glad that I can give you this report and I hope that it will be possible for the state of Oklahoma to continue the good work of maintaining this institution in a state of such efficiency as will make it of the greatest value to the Negro citizens of the state in developing its wealth and prosperity. Youra sincerely. P. P. Claxton, Commissioner. TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING.

Coody Johnson a Great Organizer at Head of the Institution M. J. HON. J. COODY JOHNSON, of WEWOKA, OKLA. We visited the State Fair at Wewoka, of which J. Cody Johnson is president. This fair was held seven miles from Wewoka, on the 1600 acre ranch of Mr. Johnson. There were crowds at day and crowds at night. They had flying machines, Ferris wheels, and everything appertaining to a fair. Mr. Johnson is to be congratulated upon his wonderful success About two-thirds of the patronage was made up of white people and Indians This is an annual affair and people came from miles to enjoy themselves with these attractions. Mr. Johnson has several hundred head of fine cattle on his ranch, and it is certainly worth the money to see what these good men are doing in that country. We visited a few places in Oklahoma recently, Perry, Guthrie, Langston, Oklahoma City and Wewoka. At Oklahoma City we found our old friend Abe Hium running a fine restaurant and doing good business. He and wife are among the best people in that country. While there we were guests at his home. He has a beautiful home in one of the best portions of the city. Also we met our friend Cleme Tullifer, who has one of the largest grocery stores in that town, and is doing good business. His wife, Mrs. Tullifer, is a fine business woman and is head of the Eastern Star Lodge of that city and is doing prosperous work. They have several thousand dollars on hand. At Perry, Oklahoma, we must say that we were surprised at the condition of the colored schools. Their school is in an old, dilapidated condition, and the blackboard is about worn out. There is nothing along industrial lines to teach the chil'. in how to sow, cook or anything The members of the school board, the superintendent and the school teachers in these colored schools who stand or these outrages should be dismissed from service. It is a disgrace for any man to be a member of a school board who would use his influence to retard the education of PRICE $1.50 PER YEAR of Arkansas Elaine. AGE A BIG AIR AT WEWOKA in a Great Organizer the Institution colored youths. We have visited several schools, but this is the first one we have seen in such horrible condition, for a city like Perry. Of course the teachers are handicapped as well as the pupils. The teachers ought to demand better treatment and equipment or resign, especially after the board of education refuses to give them what is right and necessary to educate the colored youth. We understand the superintendent of schools is Hon. Schultz, the president of the school Board Mr. William Bowles, and the other members are: Messrs. J. E. Dornhire, Joe Dozell, Roy Harry and E. Nelson. We understand that these men pose as good Christians. If they are really upright we cannot understand why they should have such a grudge against colored people as to not want them educated. We would like for this board to get busy and do the right thing. They either do not know of the conditions of this school, or they just want to play to the galleries, and incur the favor of that class of southern white men who always opposed colored progress. There ought to be colored men on the board as well as whites, for they would see to it that the whites were likewise treatd fair. If this board was composed of all colored men and there were white pupils, the white people would have no complaint to make as to the administration of the colored board, who would see to it that these white children had proper equipment in their schools. The southern white man should wake up and get into the line of civilization YALE. KANSAS. Miss Geneva Giles of Mineral, Kansas spent several days and nights in Yale with Mrs Kinchlo and Mrs. Kennedy.

(Chapist Brotherhood Bulletin) The Santa Fe Glee Club composed of some of the very best male singing talent in the city and community is getting away in good form, which fact we are very proud. We are proud of this club as Calvary is well represented therein. They are making good wherever they go and the Santa Fe railroad is going to send them over the entire system. We can't say too many things about this club. They have a manager and a director who are going after things in great shape. This organization is composed of some of the best citizens of Topeka and should be a credit to the race. We pray for the success in their undertakings and hope they keep the good work going. STOPPED MEN FITS The Dian's first in, a research study on the effects ofൃpt's tobacco use on the health of adults, was published in the Journal of Health Sciences, in 1984. It was found that the effect of the use of tobacco on the health of adults is due to the effects of the tobacco use on the health of adults. ADVISES NEGRO WOMEN TO STAY OUT. The following clipping likewise shows what the 'water brained' colored men are giving to the race for advice. Just think! An educator giving advice like this. This man above all else is unfit to be at the head of an educational institution. Educational institutions should be headed by men who are sincere in their convictions, broad minded and level headed and who believe in right, justice and fair play. Any others are out of the question and should not be tolerated at anytime or place. President James H. Dudley of the Agricultural and Technical College at Greensboro writes an open letter advising Negro women not to attempt to register and vote in the coming election. He says that it is not expedient and that it is unnecessary. The paragraph devoted to the exposition of its inexpedienty we reproduce: A ediphtatAAC feUShot shrd lhr An author of wisdom and renown has declared, and the world has accepted, that all things that are lawful are not expedient. For over half a century the Negro question has been the bane of political discussions. Questions of imperial moment have been shoved aside or discussed in the shadow of this race question, which is so pregnant with prejudice hatred and strife The progress of our state has been retarded and will always be hampered until we can give calm dispassionate thought and discussion to all public questions of great moment unfettered by prejudice, hatred and violence. We are happily and rapidly moving in that direction. Your entrance now in the political field will add fresh fuel to the fires of race prejudice and political hate, and postpone the day of calm thought, dispassionate discussion, and of political freedom and independence. Prejudice is losing its grip on the throne and intelligence is ascending. Why prolong the struggle? Dudley can usually be counted on to furnish advice to his race which if followed will avert trouble. He belongs to that growing number of educated Negroes who have come to see that no matter what may be in the Constitution or the statute law, nothing is to be gained by the attempt of an Inferior to coerce a superior race.

"I believe the federal government should stamp out lynching and remove that stain from the fair name of America. "I believe the federal government America should be guaranteed the the enjoyment of all their rights that they have earned the full measures of citizenship bestowed, that their sacrifices in blood on the battle-fields of the republic have entitled them to all of freedom and opportunity, all of sympathy and aid that the American spirit of fairness and justice demands." Senator Harding's Speech o Acceptance, Marion, O. July 22. '20 VOTE FOR HARDING AND THE ENTIRE REPUBLICAN TICKET. The Republican State Committee. A Scheme to Increase Taxes Three amendments to the Constitution of Kansas will come before the people November 2 for their approval or rejection, in substance as follows: 1. To saddle on the public an additional burden of debt for hard surface roads. 2. To enable the State to engage in the real estate business by purchasing a large area of land for cash and selling it on the installment plan. 3. To provide for a classification of property which would bring the question of taxation wholly within the realm of politics thus affording the best politicians opportunity to give advantages to the interests they especially represent. The backers of this three-way proposition to boost taxes urged the Republican and Democratic party councils to endorse it in their platforms, but after giving the subject careful consideration both councils declined to do so. The Kansas Taxpayers League, made up of citizens in every part of the State, who actually pay taxes, earnestly recommend to their fellow taxpayers that they vote against the three amendments proposed, which, if adopted, would mean the expenditure of millions upon millions of dollars on visionary projects put forth by men who expect to obtain profitable employment on the innumerable boards, or in other offices which would be created.
