Plaindealer

The Topeka Plaindealer SERVICE WILL BE REQUIRED BY HARDING ADMINISTRATION TWENTY-THIRD YEAR (By Charles E. Hall.) Washington, D. C. Possibly one of the most interesting political developments is the recently assumed attitude of our man who live west of the Mississippi river and who claim that under no circumstances will they permit a group of men from the voiceless South to enclose them out of a representative in Cabinet No. 2, which is the new name Editor Vann gave the readers of the Courter as substitute for the graphic and euphonious name "Black Cabinet." But you can rest assured that whether it is a number 2 or a "Black Cabinet," the members will have to render SERVICE or get out President Harding is a worker and he will probably insist upon the appointment of men who are prepared to function to a low per cent efficiency. There will be no dignified swivelchair artists under this administration because there is too much reconstruction work to be done, and if reports are true all patronage will be handed out on the recommendation of the state Congressional delegations rather than upon the word and influence of members of a Ham Trust." Service will be the slogan of the Harding administration. It is claimed that the friends of Editor Nelson Crews at the Kansas City sun would like to make him an Assistant Secretary in the Department of Agriculture and it is pointed out that he is fitted for that position because of his experience as a Special Agent in that department some years ago at which time it is said he made a survey of the geographical distribution of wild animals and studied the economic relation of insects to alfalfa. But with Prof. Salas Harris claiming that he will be the next Registrar, and with Dr. Crossland claiming that he is backed for a position of DIGNITY by Missouri physicians with MILLIIONS, and by Missouri bankers with BILLIONS. It is not apparent where and how Crews can cash in, and then, too, there is Malone whose friends are doing some scientific hustling. The situation in Missouri will probably be cleared up thru an elimination contest, and fortunately Clarence Hueston has moved to Gary, Indiana, where he is getting rich selling real estate. Had Hueston remained on the banks of the Kaw river the situation in both Missouri and Indiana would be different, but what is the use of dragging Sumner Furniss and George L. Know into this discussion. It is reported that Editor Nick Chiles of Topka, is doing a great deal of am shoe work, but it is difficult to get a line on just what he is trying to put over. Chiles has not been here often since the canvas duck dinner Reglstrar Vernon A. E. Malone the Peoples' Choice A. E. Malone the Peoples' Choice Corrected version The race of the United States want a real representative Race man in Washington, who has done something and stands for something, even at a sacrifice as far as a monetary consideration is concerned. Mr. A. E. Malone, president of the Poro College of St Louis, is such a man. His friends want him to become an active candidate for the public office of registrar of the United States treasury, a position formerly held by various members of the race. Mr. Malone certainly has the unqualified support of the Plaindealer and the Colored people throughout the country. In view of the substantial philanthropy work done by Mr. and Mrs. Malone in St Louis and other parts of the country, in which all people irrespective of color or race, have been benefitted, it is all together fitting and proper that such a reward should be bestowed upon one so worthy as Mr. Malone. E REQUIRED DING ADMINISTRATION Western Candidates hair Artists Wanted gave in honor of his western friends land on which occasion Auditor Tyler Judge Torrell and Recorder Duncan made Vernon a great race leader This was two or three days before Frank Hitchcock sent for Vernon to talk over a little matter of finance From Denver comes the news that Editor Rivers would like to take up a temporary residence here and function as an official in the Interior Department where he can become familiar with the development of land projects in the far West and ultimately direct Southern Colored farmers to localities where they can live in peace and prosperity while engaged in the gentle art of tilling the soil It is not that that Rivers will have much, if any opposition because most of the candidates except R. H. Holmes, of Spokane, and John H Ryan, of Tacoma would rather hear the music of a Jazz band in a crowded theater than the song of a whippper will on a shalt bank of a babbling brook The people of Omthya will be satisfied to place Walter J. Singleton in the Bureau of Animal Industry in the Department of Agriculture so that he can inform the Western Colored farmers how to raise the hops and cattle that sooner or later and their way to the Omthya slaughter houses. But it has been a long time since Walter saw a live hog and is that that he would rather specialize in poultry. Since Adam Patterson left Oklahoma and refused the position of Registrar of the Treasury under the present administration, everybody, including Colly Johnson, is working overtime shouting off wells and selling oil stock, and they are too busy to seek offices. This is also true of the people of Texas, the home of Bill McDonald, who threw the monkey wrench into the Republican machinery and got badly wounded by a piece of the flying debris. No one wants to leave the glorious climate of California except editors McBoth and Noah Thompson, and Dr. John Outlaw. It seems that McBoth and Thompson are from Baltimore and miss Drudd Hill avenue, and Outlaw, who hails from this city, would not object to a chance at Freedman's Hospital should Dr. Warfield decide to resign. There is no doubt but that the Western men will be given substantial recognition because of the strength and influence of their Congressional delegations. But getting back to the "Near East" There is S Joe Brown, of Des Moines, who has been mentioned for a place under the Attorney General and Fred D McCracken, of St Paul who is now the City Manager of Truston Virginia, for the U.S. Housing Corporation McCracken can get the backing of the Minnesota dole (Continued on last page) By a hard struggle and a simple faith in God, and with a spirit of fitness and conscientious dealings they have reached the goal of success. They are now sharing with the race that with which they have been blessed, in the promotion and furthering of the work, among the poor and charitable organizations of the country. Mr Malone's appointment should be looked upon as a national affair and not local. The entire race should be as a unit in the endorsement of his candidacy, as he would represent the race in the broadest sense and much good generally would be accomplished. ERECTS MONUMENT TO SON William M. (Gooseck Bill) Mczation Donald, of Ft Worth, Texas, one of the best known Negro politicians a and business men in the state of Tex. Heade am, has erected a monument to his gion who died about a year ago, at a cost of $12000 The shaft is 31 ft. nole high, of polished granite. It re- quired three weeks to set the derrick the and lift the monument upon the base. leade MEXICO EXODUS IS GAINING GREAT FAVOR MEXICO EXODUS IS GAINING GREAT FAVOR Special to The Plaindealer The Independent Industrial League of North America, South America, Africa and Mexico. First propose to bring together the brain and brawn, wealth and skill of the colored race and to weld together into a working unit. Second - For protection and the common defense, and the general welfare of all, and seeks to establish colonies, build communities in countries that are not hostile to our group It seems that Mexico offers the best advantages, and the government is the most friendly and the opportunities greater. The soil is fertile, the climate mild, the mineral resources are unsurpassed. Now is the time for the American Negro to assert himself and show to his oppressors, that he is disafflicted, and will not continue to be abused and mistreated by a government whose flag he has ever upheld and to whose colors he has ever been loyal. The Independent Industrial League through its officers purpose to or organize branches whatever there is a sufficient number of Negroes who desire to better their condition, until the entire race is organized and there will be one common cord and one dynamo, operated by Negroes in the interest of Negroes. The Independent Industrial League held its first annual meeting at Wewoka, Okla., January 1, 1921 in commenation of the Emancipation, and tendered an excellent program. The program was the most logical and beneficial ever tendered in Wewoka. The audience was composed of the adult men of the race, and both night and day sessions were largely attended and great interest and enthusiasm was manifest. The principal speaker, Dr. D. W. Porter, of Dallas, Texas, spoke on Mexico, the Land of opportunities. Dr. Porter arrived at Holdenville, Dec 31, 1920, and was met by a delegation of prominent citizens headed by Doctors Rickman and Tyson. A short conference was held in the office of Dr. Rickman, after which the Doctor met and dined with some of Holdenville's leading citizens at the Palace hotel. The dinner was pronounced sumptuous, a feast "fit for the gods," the compliments of the committee. After dinner, Mr. R. E James, led the way motoring the party sightseeing over Holdenville, then to Wewoka, where the party was met at the office of Dr. A. H Tyson by a number of distinguished citizens and an informal conference resulted. Night session was held at K of P. ball, where Dr Potter gave instructions as to Mexico and its government, at which time the audience ran wild with enthusiasm Dr Porter is one of the many men who have stood four square, and one who has studied the condition of the race, and now comes the remedy Mexico. The doctor has made many trips into the republic of Mexico and comes back with this declaration that there is absolutely no discrimination on the account of color: no Jim Crow law. There is no "Lynch law." No Mob violence and the courts absolute is fair and the officials of Mexico invite you to come and be one with them in a great government in a great country. To the tired and oppressed and mistreated Negro, this should be a haven of rest. To the Negro manufacturer merchant, mechanic, artisan business and professional men, the way is open, you may go your length in a field where you will not be prescribed, and no limitation on the account of your color. All these matters have been carefully looked into. The land can be had in Mexico on easy terms, but only through colonization. There is no reason why every American Negro should not own a home in Mexico. So Be Ye Ready The Watchword is on to Mexico The people of Hughes and Seminole counties are enthusiastic over the move and each is vying with the other under their respective leaders, to see which can roll up the HOLLY GROVE BAPSTIST CHRUCH HAS NEW PASTOR Holly Grove Baptist church was ablaze with religious fervor on Sunday, Dec 19th, 1920, when the ministers of Lawrence, Endora Baldwin with one from Topoka, and a presentative number of the twelve five congregations were present to participate in the installation services, at which time the Rev C C Crockett, of Topoka, was installed as the pastor of Holly Grove Baptist church. At the morning services, impressive devotionals were conducted by the Rev Wilson, of Baldwin. A must-stirring sermon was preached by the Rev Houson, of Endora. In the afternoon the services were opened by introductory remarks by the pastor "Coronation" was sung in the fullness of the spirit by the entire congregation Rev Northlarton, of Topoka. JOHN H. conducted devotionals scripture lesson was read by the Rev Wilson of Paldwn. The installation sermon was an able, masterly discourse of effectively delivered by the Rev L. T. Smith, pastor of St Luke A, M E church of Lawrence, Kansas, after an exceptionally fervent invocation was offered by the Rev, G N Jackson, pastor of the 9th Street Baptist church, Lawrence. A few minutes was devoted to platform speaking by the Reverends Northington, McDuff, pastor of the Christian church, and G, N Jackson, who made excellent short talks. Mrs Smith, wife of the Rev, Smith, of St Luke, made a "Big Speech" in three words. She admonished the members of Holly Grove church to do three things, which will bring to them and their pastor, Success; they were PRAY STAY and PAY. It would be well for all the churches to take this Heavenly admonition. At the evening services the Rev Northington provided a rousing sermon which was highly enjoyed. The services were well attended and a glorious time was witnessed by all who attended. Another feature of the day which was highly enjoyed by all was the beautiful dinner spread by the ladies of the church. Roy, Crockett was warmly received and welcomed to a party in the work of the Master in the city of Lawrence by the postors of the various churches and denominations their numbers and citizens generally The Holly Grove Baptist church has made no mistake in calling the Rev Crockett. We have known the Reverend for a number of years and have found him to be an upright and christian gentleman, a progressive face man and in every respect a fit minister of the gospel. For a number of years, he was employed in the Post office in this city and in that capacity he made a splendid record and the people of this city feel proud of him. He is a self sustaining man and one who believes in practicing the doctrine which he preaches. largest membership, so far, the counties are working harmoniously and smoothly together For further information concerning this movement can be had by communicating with Dr. A. H. Tyson, Wewoka, Okla, President; Dr W. T. Rickman, Holdenville, Okla, Secretary; Dr. D. W. Porter, Dallas, Tex. 2413 1.2 Film street. INDEPENDENCE ATTORNEY WANTS TO BRING SUIT FOR LIBEL Independence Kansas January 9, 1920 Mr Nick Chiles Topka Kansas Dear Sir Mr Ralph Mitchell of this city has retained me to represent his interest in the following matter in the Topka Plaindealer, of the issue of December 1st there appears an editorial in reference to the race plot and murder, which occurred in this city, December 10th. A part of your editorial reads as follows On the face of the evidence at houl whoever the murderer was knew something about the holocaust and movements of this particular procer. The officers will do well to in- vestigate the punishment who saw Green and so readily recog- nized him as being the guilty man. Given may be guilty, but do not convict him on color prejudice or criminum or forced testimony. It is so easy for a white person to shield himself in crime. It is an easy matter him to jump behind an in- front Nato and his story is often readily accepted. For the officers of the law do their noble duty in hanging the guilty man to the but of justice." In part you refer to is my offi cut Mr Ralph Mitchell of this city of Mr Mitchell is commonly known lower the city as the man who identified the murderer Noble Green Being a brother in law of the man deepen man I am perhaps better in formed as to the facts of the kill ing than you are. To make the actions charge which you have made in your editorial, is not only repre- heensible but sufficient grounds for damage action for label, and unless you publish an apology in your next issue, I will file an action for dama- ges against you in behalf of Mr. Mitchell. On behalf of the family, I made an appeal to the public to respect the law, but after reading your editorial, which only serves to intensify race hatred, I am rather sorry of my action. If you do not possess intelligence enough to discourage racial feeling, then the best thing for you to do is to retire from the publishers ranks. Yours truly, (Thurman Hill) TO MR HILL CO. January 12th, 1921 Mr. Thurman Hill. Attorney at Law. Independent Kansas. Mr dear Mr Hill Your letter of the 5th last, has been received Am sorry indeed that your client Mr Mitchell takes exception to our editorial comment on the recent riot in your city Now, Sir, in the matter of your chant, Mr Mitchell, I have only this to say in his regard, that we never had him or any other individual in mind we only tried to assistors in running down the guilty party. We see no wrong in the officers investigating every clue or statement bearing on the murder, which would lead to the guilty party or parties. If Mr Mitchell was the first person to discover the murder man as well as seeing the murderer, it would only be natural to investigate him and find out all that he knows and what light he might throw upon the case. Mr Mitchell should not feel bad or of fended over such action. If he is innocent, this alone ought to make him feel all the better. We have not charged him nor any one else with being guilty of the crime, or even intimated in the least of his being guilty. Only calling the officers attention. Had we known you were his brother-in-law at the time we wrote the editorial, and had been in possession of the above letter from you, we would have told them PRICE $1.50 PER YEAR others may agree to brother in law he too, might be able to throw some light upon the case. You say that you are sorry not appealed to the public to respect the law since you lead our editorial. Your register shows that you are wobbly and would very easily develop into a dangerous opinion, in other words, you infer that had you thought such an article would have offended, you would have taken a stand with the lawless man such a class of men are dangerous to society and unfit for good citizenship who would in any way encourage the obedience of the law Now sir, we are not encouraging social feeling in the matter, but on the other hand we are trying to have everybody, rather alive or race or color live up to Golden Rule. If a number of our white brethren would accord to the same rights they demand for themselves in public places in positions of trust and before the bill of justice, instead of trying to listen crime upon our race when the crimes are committed by whitemen we would not be compelled to write such editorials. For 22 years we have been trying than the columns of this paper, to guide and advise both races to respond to each others' rights and live as the Saviour won't have them. I have tried to show our white brethren that we are nothing more than flesh and blood, all come into the would abide and it out alike, so there is an important advantage to gain over the new petty dollars and popularity. Then all is over and we pass out for a new generation. So it is you and your class who do not possess the proper intelligence to discourage race feeling. In this case the best thing for you to do is to read my paper or some other journal of my race, and become acquainted with what the race is doing, and how much they think of their white brethren. They do everything possible to keep peace, yet they lynch, burn and rob them of their wealth and their civil and political rights every day, and I doubt if you ever entered a protest, judging from the way you speak, in that you have cause to regret your actions in this matter. In the light of the above mentioned facts, do you blame us for writing such editorials.* Give my compliments to your client, Mr Mitchell, say to him, that I am sorry he looks upon the article as a reflection upon him. We did not have him in mind we merely impressed upon the officers of the law that their duty was supreme. White men often commit crime with their faces blackened, or charge crime to innocent Neuros, because it is so easy to make the average white man believe them guilty. Had this been a white man under suspicion there would not have been any trouble in your city, and this you know I trust that you and your client will be contented with this explanation. As a practicing attorney, you are too well versed in the law to advise your client that he has cause for action. Yours truly, NICK CHILES. Editor Tepeka Plainender President Kansas Defense Society RACE WOMAN IN NEW BUSINESS ADVENTURE An interesting example of a new occupation for Negroes is the mail order business of Miss Madeline Allison, of New York City. Miss Allison is a Colored woman who has long been connected with the CRISIS magazine. She has been impressed with the advantage to many Colored people, particularly in the south, of shopping in New York City, if if they could get careful and interested attention.

This is certainly a high honor, or paid Mr. Hammond, in that he will cast the vote for one of the most popular presidents ever elected by these United States. Mr. Hammond is engaged in the lumber business and was formerly connected with the Blue Sky department of the State Bank Commissioner's office. Mr. Stephen Burney, of Dodge City who is on the list of employees at the State house for the legislative session, is confined to his room on account of illness. --- Mrs. Mary Cole, of Hugoton, Kans. sister of Mr. W.

Her mother also owns considerable real estate in that section of the country, and their are among the most progressive people there. The editor met President Peck, of Western University, Kansas City, Kansas, and he spoke in glowing terms of the great success being made by the students of the school. He states that they are overcrowded and have to put three in a bed. The church is giving a building to the school, but they are expecting the legislature to give them a large and suitable dormitory for the young women which they need very badly. Applications are before time down from all sections of the state and country every day on account of no having sufficient room to accommodate more students. We trust the present legal future will see its way clear to supply this much needed building. The people of Atchison and the members of the A M E, church are proud of their new minister, Rev W. J. Prince. He is doing great work and has added several young men to the church, whose services will be invaluable not only to the church, but to the community at large. Miss Dolna R.
