The Topeka Plaindealer AMERICAN SYNCOPATED ORCHESTRA, The Greatest Colored Organization on the Road Today. Will Be at the GRAND THEATER, Monday Night, January 3rd. TO GOVERNOR ALLEN OF KANS Dear Governor, Allen: Permanent to our conversation in your executive office at the State Capital last Saturday, in which conversation you expressed your resignation and compliance with the swear of the Jim Crow colorline throughout the SunPower rate, in which conversation you declared that the loss of your Colored fellow citizens of over impolite place under the State Court ent gave those of a mental nature was only the loss of superficial things," and in which conversation you declared that your Colored fellow citizens were content and happy and rightfully so with these things, let me say that I conducted my investigation to see if I was in error in this last respect and if so you said I was wrong and was only preaching the doctrine of discontent in inveighing against the Infamy and treachery to the Republic of the Jim-Crow colorline. Let me say that I have since talked with hundreds of the respectable Colored citizens of Kansas and without exception I found them sad and more at heart at loss of official recognition and representation, mengre as that was, at the failure of your Republican administration to restore not only that recognition but to enlarge it to something nearer their rightful quota; sore that the Republican party even under your state leadership was rapidly becoming a white party—in so far as leadership and representation, elective or official, goes—and more sore even that under your rock ribbed republican administration—with you suspiciously by and, as you admitted, growing the line of least resistance under the manufactured clamor hostility of your white Southwesterners—that Jim.Crow public schools were being increasingly established throughout the State and that the color line in the State and Cathedral places of public accommodation was being allowed to rear its monstrous, poisonous head without interference or objection from you or the Republican party. I found every man and woman of prominence among them as deeply depressed and resentful at this state of affairs as was I through several of them who hold petty acts positions secretly and cowardly admitted to me that they had neither remonstrated with you nor otherwise sought publicly redress for these civic wrongs they suffer. I will grant you further that some such offending individuals have come to you as fawning flatterers to tell you that the race was saddest. But they, with all others of their race, know that these things are dangerous if not suicidal for all in the final analysis and especially harmful to them. They know this accounts for the listless and ambitious condition of their race in your state. They know with you that if there is ever going to be real democracy in this our native state AMERICAN SYNCOPATED C Will Be at the GR COL, JOHN R, MARSHALL PAYS TOPEKA A VISIT Col. John R. Marshall, special agent of the Department of Public Welfare of the State of Illinois, was in Topeka last week to take a parol, a prisoner from Lansing back to the state of Illinois. While here he had a conference with the Governor relative to papers of requisition. He was ailler at the Plaindealer. He reports that the, groves of Chicago will shortly open a, took there with a capital stock of over a hundred thousand dollars, paid up and twenty thousand dollars surplus. The bank will be debited at 56th place and State street. HARRIS TO ALLEN OF KANSAS. end nation that it must begin in the public schools. They know—and you should know that a J.M. Crow school is his best ally will be in inferior school. They know and you know it in the Colored man ever becomes the enlightened, upstanding and decent America, which the Republic will always need in the arts of war as well as in peace, that he needs the contact and competition and example of his white fellow citizen. They know, as you know, that Jim Crow lines are counter to the spirit of our country and its constitution. Now, Governor Allen, the twelve million Colored citizens of America have wanted to look upon you as a national, militant, progressive—as a coming Theodore Roosevelt—your patron saint as he was mine. Theodore Roosevelt knew that to recognize a prejudice was to increase it and to establish it. He appointed capable Colored men to office, North and South, and he stood by them. Thereby he inspired and lifted a race, and by such acts he raised the morale of the nation life and his party abolished every color line, not only in New York but in the Nation's Capital. Now, just so, Gov Allen, must every true American patriot take positive action against those who would publicly, divide and discriminate between the races. Just so must every true American Patriot who knows the vital, valiant part the black man has played in the exploration, settlement, establishment and perpetuity of the Republic forse now the time when the red flag of Bolshevism would be planted upon the temples of our liberty, that the loyal black American will again be needed as the American without a hyphen, as the American bulwark against the forces of discord and damnation. Had John Brown of Osawatomie, and the New England pioneers in Kansas, and the martyr, Abraham Lincoln taken the attitude toward Negrophobia and slavery you take, Governor Allen Kansas would have been a slave state, the nation would have been divided and the United States of America would today be a math and memory, Jim Crowlin is drawing at the walls of Kansas Governor. It is for you to scout the make. It is for you to keep open the door of hope to every Kansan, black and white. It is for you to let Kansas back in the forefront of the free masterhood of America. You have taken high ground in the settlement of industrial relations. You must take equally firm and hard action in the settlement of race relations. No more in one than the other can you temporize between right and wrong. No more in one than the other can you compromise between American principle and un-American reaction. GEORGE GARRIS. Dec. 2, 1929 ORCHESTRA, The Greatest Colored Or RAND THEATER. Monday Night, Januar the citizens of Illinois are preparing to send the famous 8th Illinois Regiment to the Inauguration at Washington and are raising a fund of $10 000 for this purpose. This speaks well for the great commonwealth of Illinois and it is hoped that this movement will be of great benefit to the race at large. --- We note with much regret the death of Hon. Fred Douglass, of Tulsa,Ohla. He was born in Topeka and spent some time here as a boy. At the time of his death he was in the meridian of life. Mr. Douglass was a progressive young man and was always engaged some form of business enterprise, an able politician and advo- THE HIGH SCHOOL POPULATION OF KANSAS CITY, KANSAS AND WICHITA Washington, D.

The Plaindealer Staff is in receipt of a handsome card extending the Season's Greeting from our old friend and leger-de-main artist of fame, the Race Magician, Black Carl from his eastern habitat, New York. We appreciate the kind remembrance of Mr. Johnson, who was formerly a resident of this city and in return wish him the same only with a little more emphasis. 31, 1920 RACE PREJUDICE CREATES STRIFE IN STATE OF JOHN BROWN WILL BE OPENED SHORTLY TO THE CHILD DESIRE BY BOTH PARENTS AND P UPILS By Special Correspondence On Thursday morning, Dec 16th. W. W Wharton, a local grocer was shot and killed just after opening up his store for the beginning of the business of the day. He was shot in the face with a shot fired from a shot gun. A baker delivering bread reported that he saw a Norwegian store carrying a shot he approached to deliver catering the store he had been shot. I have hurriedly summoned an officer the day searching parties were out looking for the murderer, both white and Colored men being authorized to engage in the hunt. About three p. m. a suspect by the name of Green was apprehended and placed in the city jail and evidence pointed strongly towards him as being the guilty party. The search was practically abandoned and all over the city parties were grouped and discussed the murder. Conversations of lynching were numerous and a night apreached said conversation galanced inimentum until the Colored were raised to the point of offering assistance to the authorities to prevent a lynching and as practically all were carrying guns, the Colored men likewise armed themselves and proceeded to march to the city jail and court house and it was on this mission that the riot occurred after the authorities had promised the Colored citizens that they would see that no violence should be done the suspected man and apparently in leaving the scene they (the Colored) were pressed too closely by the whites and a gun discharged which precipitated the riot. Result:—Dead—Arthur Harper (Colored) and a white boy 17 years of age by the name of McClenan; four or five whites were seriously wounded and one other Colored. Hostily the American Legions of Independence, Neosha, Coffeyville and Parsons were called to assist in quieting the affair and rendered excellent service until relieved by a body of militia of the State. No direct attempt was made to lynch Noble Green, the man held for the crime. At the present time every THE EDITOR'S NOTE BOOK. Hon, W I Jamison, formerly a prominent attorney of this city, but now located in Cleveland, Ohio, where he has acquired a lucrative practice, is in the city visiting his family during the holidays. He speaks in glowing terms of Cleveland and the possibilities of the Colored people. The great commercial and business awakening which is manifest over the country is quite in evidence in that locality and the large number of enterprises owned and operated by our people speak well for the business sagacity of the race. Drug stores, cafes, theatres, and other various concerns are doing well there. Mixed schools are had there and the race prejudice is not an evident in that large city as it is here in Topeka. In the theatres, no questions or halts, all patrons are treated alike. Ohio has a law which is enforced to the letter, against the public places drawing racial lines and discriminating. He adds that thing seems to be about normal EDITOR'S COMMENT Much praise is due the members of the American Legion of the surrounding towns composed of members of both races, as well as the better class of citizens of that town for the way in which they put down mob rule and saved an overlist disgrace from that fair and beautiful little Kansas community. The Colored people joined in the chase to apprehend the murderer, caring not whether he be white or black. The law took its course. The Colored citizens of that town would not attempt to shield any criminal of the race from the officers of the law E CHILDREN OF THAT DISTRICT TO P UPILS. but will go as far as any one to bring them to justice. There ought to be a Colored man in the Sheriff's office and on the police force of that town, then justice in the administration of the law would not be one-sided. From what we gleaned from the press reports, there is a doubt in our minds whether or not Neil Green is the man who committed the crime. On the face of the evidence at hand, whoever the murderer was knew something about the habits and movements of this particular grocer. The officers will do well to investigate the gentitman who saw Green and so readily recognized him as being the guilty man. Green may be guilty, but do not convict him on color prejudice or crammed or forced testimony. It is so easy for a white person to shield himself in crime it is an easy matter for him to jump behind an innocent Negro and his story is always readily accepted. Let the officers of the law do their noble duty in bringing the guilty party to the bar of justice. Kansas does not stand for mob law. The Sheriff, deputies and the Colored people are to be congratulated and we say now and forever, that it is the duty of the colored citizens to offer themselves to protect life, property and liberty when it becomes necessary. It only goes to show the spirit of justice and fair play which makes up the general run of the better class of the Race. They are law abiding and can always be relied upon to do the right thing. Toroka is a good, clean city and one of the finest in the country. He will return to Cleveland in a few days. Attorney Jamison was the first man of color to be elected to a judgehip in Shawnee county. His son W Herbert Jamison maintains the practice in this city and stands high at the Shawnee county bar and a coming barrister. His father has practised for years and enjoyed one of the most lucrative practices in this county. The Judge has not wasted any time since coming to Kansas from Tennessee. He can now take life easy, as his income from his real estate and personal property is sufficient to keep the wolf from the door for sometime to come. --- District Deputy Ransom Taylor, of the Knights and Daughters of Tabor and Grand Chief Proceptress Emma Gaines paid the Holloway claim at Lane Chapel last Sunday. He says the district is in the best shape it has been in for many years: PRICE $1.50 PER YEAR SUPT, CARMICHAEL REPLIES TO EDITOR'S INQUIRY Osawatomie, Kansas, Dec 20, 1920. Mr. Nick Chiles, Editor. Topeka, Kansas Dear Str I have your communication of Dec. 10, advising that you are having complaint from people over the state of the conditions and treatment of the nurses. I would appreciate very much an indication of how frequent and widespread this complaint may be. It is my impression that you have heard this complaint from a single source. As you are doubtless aware this is the only institution of this kind in the state where colored nurses are employed. The employment of colored nurses was undertaken with the idea that they would record to those of their own color a higher degree of consideration than white nurses would give. Since the adoption of this plan I have found it so impractical that its abandonment has seemed inevitable many times. Such positions demand a quality, rarely possessed by the colored race and to satisfactorily fill these positions has been almost impossible. I think that in the near future it will be necessary to change the plan of nursing as it is impossible to secure colored help possessing the qualifications necessary. You state that nurses are being worked overtime and sanitary conditions are somewhat poor. I wish to advise you that the colored nurses, and I presume your complaint refers to them, are working exactly the same hours and under the same conditions as our white nurses. As regards sanitary conditions I do not think any institution in the state is more satisfactory from a sanitary standpoint and certainly the sanitation is much better than these Negro nurses have in their own homes. Would also advise you that the same ratio of help obtain on the colored as on the white words. As we have had no complaining from our white nurses of overwork or overtime or poor sanitary conditions I am inclined to the belief that your concern in this matter is not founded on first hand knowledge but upon the complaint of some disgruntled colored employee. Sincerely yours, P. Carmichael Sept. Mrs. Julia Bowles, of 1321 Highland avenue, Kansas City, Mo., the mother of Mrs. Annala Garrett, is visiting her old birthplace at Hardshoville, Mo. She has a few relatives there who are making it pleasant for her during her stay there. She is one of Missouri's pioneer citizens and one of the best women in that state and was always a hard worker, kind and generous and had a large number of friends. She was never known to have enemies, on the other hand was at all times looking after the welfare of those who were needy. For some time she has been in ill health. We hope that on her return she will feel improved in health after her visit -1 WARNING- When will the Colorol people stop being duped by invasers who go than the country preying upon the race by getting money on the pretext of being one of the 13 men who were executed at Fort Houston in December 1917 His claims are, the men were sent to Old Mexico. The Professional and educated members of the race seem to 'fall' for this kind of bane. The race should be careful in picking up strangers who go thru the country practicing such deceiving tricks. Mr and Mrs Horace Lamerson entertained a number of friends at dinner at their home in honor of Doctor Harry Knight and wife, of the West Indies. Fifteen guests were present and partook of the liberal hospitality of the host and hostess. Mrs Lamerson is indeed a Queen of her household and spared no pain to make her guests feel at home. An excellent dinner was served. All the toothsome dishes of the season were served and the table was laden down with the weight. All report a splendid time and were favored with much valuable information about the West Indies islands by Knight and wife. Mr. and Mrs. Lainerson recently purchased the two story, brick residence at 325 Quincy street in the heart of Topka. They are among Topka's leading and progressive citizens. Dr. and Mrs. Knight are the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Wun, Smith on Lincoln street while here. yo BB a Yes . ge OS® 1 ' s . “4 P . ~ \ 6 oe * ee ue lg es _ ent a: ae 4 . wT . ee i fede ' Bh oa She Hae Sf 8i7 Be oo art bi Rey EER Tae By Wek wey rar d Seaee: ms Wo ge TL A re Fa a wget haute Bape ES a Seer G Bog 4 yh oer ES ts hi ce Shee egg tht Be meek, BrnvoN ys Ce aA arenes Retiree eae a Spal a Raa wees” Pe ay Ege Aa ssh eke Pe DL a i: ey “% Sel is} aa oi er ee arf rs Se ee ae Meee meee rare Tee me — rea * eo Pers armies naeas ty aiid : on DR, THEODORE SMITH’S MODERNORUG STOR™ 12" == Te*cy ST, KANBAS CITY, MO, _———— — E— ee EE | | 1,000 Agents Wanted Good Money Made We want agents Inevery city and village to sell THE STAR HAIR GROWER This derful * aration.

FOR SALE. GRAND One Night Monday OPERA HOUSE JAN. 3 PLAIN DEALINGS. We have waited with great anticipation for that much advertised Xmas edition of The Soaring Eagle, California's greatest Negro Journal. It came the other day and it was in every way up to our expectations. A gem in mechanical construction and make-up. We recognize the car marks and handiwork of the 'old veteran' Kansas printer, Mr. Ira Smith. The paper is cram full of good reading matter and displays the nest of the Eagle on Central Avenue, the "Black Broadway" of Los Angeles. We glance at the staff of the journal in their seemingly characteristic pose out in front and find the Big Chief, Hon. J. B. Bass, he of Kansas, who occupies the big chair; the huge Grand Master of the Odd Fellows in that great western country, well groomed and prosperous looking, who shows by his bulky appearance that he feeds on the fat of the land. We miss, however, that large perfecto from his mouth and presume he put it aside for a moment when he stepped outside. Next we find "Old Hoss" just as we saw him last, even tho we note a rather pleased look, which we never, gazed at before, this we presume has been acquired since that fateful day in New Mexico when the parson tied the knot. Never the less, it is a good pose, Ira. Now, we see the "Powers that Be," the Lord and Master of that Sanctum Sanctorium, the source from whence comes the gladness on Saturday afternoon at closing time, the brilliant and business like wife of the editor and herself the managing editor of the Soaring Eagle, Mrs. C. A. Spars Biss, whom we understand to be a woman with splendid literary attainments and a shrewd tactful woman of affairs. She looks business from start to finish. We close by wishing the Soaring Eagle and its efficient staff a happy and prosperous New Year. -Gee Kay Mr. and Mrs. Rufus Drazler enter statined on Tuesday evening at their residence 106 N Jefferson Street in honor of Mrs. Ethel Woods, Chil- oga, Ill.
