Plaindealer

The Supreme Encampment Is Under Full Sail For Aug. 14--20 The Topeka Plaindealer The Liberian Loan of 5 Million Granted by U.S. COLORED KANASANS OF GREAT WHEAT BELT DOING WELL IN AGRICULTURAL AND BUSINESS PURSUITS. TWENTY-THIRD YEAR The Libe COLORED KANASANS BELT DOING WELL AND BUSINESS PU We just returned from a trip in the Interest of the Piaindealer thru the wheat belt of the state, making the towns of Emporia, Hutchinson, Great Bend and Wichita, Kansas. EMPORIA At Emporia, we were the guests of the Tiptons, Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Tipton, and his mother, Mrs. Dollie Tipton. We found something over fifty Colored teachers attending the summer session of the State normal, these mostly from Kansas and Oklahoma. The modern teacher today, who wishes to retain a good position in the school systems with good pay must keep space with the methods which are continually changing and improving. This must be done by application and study during the summer months. If this is not done, they will soon find themselves out of a job. We attended the A. M. E. church, of which the Rev| Woods, is pastor, and must say, to the credit of the pastor and the congregation that the young people of the church are now bringing it up in the front ranks. The church is out of debt and everything is moving along harmoniously. Rev. Woods is having splendid success. We spoke to the congregation at both the morning and evening services. We were shown over the city by Mr. and Mrs. Alex. Reeves, in their Studebaker car, which was driven by Mrs. Reeves, whom I found to be a careful and experienced driver. They are the owners of a beautiful home. Our friend, W. E. Carter, is still with the Coal and Lumber Company, owns a nice home and is doing well. We visited the Knox farm, of which Mr. Henry Knox, is the manager. The farm consists of over 200 acres, in wheat and corn and well stocked with cattle. Mr. Knox is a bachelor and his friends sav, is in need of a wife. He also manages his mother's farm. Mrs. Lutte Hawkins Ellott is slowly regaining her sight, can do her housework and visits the neighbors. She can now distinguish colors in ladies dresses and their styles as well. This alone will destroy or restore a woman's sight, for she never gets thru gazing at what each other wears. So there is no way to keep Mrs. Ellott from regaining her sight, if the fashion plates come around. They own a nice home well furnished and beautifully kept. If a semblind woman can keep a real clean house, what ought some of the women do who can see everything and everybody, do? We have seen several who looked as if they had sight, nor could walk. We hope she will continue to improve. She saves her husband, Mr. Ellott, is a Prince and she idolizes him and he does likewise. HUTCHINSON Here is a prosperous town in which they have a grocery store, coal office, race newspaper, one lawyer, one doctor, and three churches. The Rev. R. C. Henderson, pastor of the Bethel, A. M. E. church, is a young man and an active minister, and we predict that he will pay the indebtedness on this church during the present year. He is also building a parsonage at a cost of several thousand dollars. This is the class of young ministers which are needed in our churches thrust out the country. He has the young people in full control and is giving them good, wholesome instruction and spiritual advice, this in itself, means much for the Race. He is also giving them the advantage and opportunity to display their ability and qualifications for church and race work. We find also that this city has the largest amount of musical talent of any city in the state. There are a number of well educated young pro le who are talented and well trained both in vocal and insu- More Rooms are ne ERIAN LO S OF GREAT WHEAT IN AGRICULTURAL RSUITS. mental music. Mr. J. H. Snowden, 223 E. West street, has just completed a $3500 bungalow, for his residence. It is strictly modern and is now occupied by the Snowden family. He has several other rent houses. Mr. Snowden came to Hutchinron a few years ago without a dollar, but a full determination to do things. At the present time he counts his money in five figures. While here we were the guest of Mrs Parthenia Wooten, who owns a nice comfortable home and is getting on well. The Colored people of the city as a whole, own good homes and are progressing rapidly. The Baptist church is a handsome edifice and will soon be out of debt. They have a good congregation and a fine pastor, who has recently been called to that church. They are working hard to pay off the indebtedness during this year. The M. E. church is also moving along nicely and has an able pastor. We find here our Colored women have good positions such as cateresses and house positions. We met Mr. Emerson Carey, owner of the Carey Salt Plant, Ice Company and Street Railway plant of the city, who is building a fine country home on his farm, just outside of the city. He is a widower and his friends do not understand what this fine residence means. He has them all guessing, and it seems that the ex-State Senator is going to surprize all of them some of these days. Mrs. E. J. Kennedy has opened a fine restaurant and cafe in her own building at 508 Main street. She is a fine cook and has a good patronage among the race. She is a progressive widow and has fine business qualities. One thing we feel pleased over in regard to Hutchinson, is, the excellent class of white and colored citizens, and the ideal conditions under which they live and work. Over 27,000 people in the city and no separate schools. They are all educated together and work together for the common interests of all concerned. Mr. F. H. Harris and wife, also conduct a nice cafe and lunch room where they are giving first-class service to the public. We can not find a man or woman, young or old, to write the news of this city for the Plaindealer. Wake up, young folks! Push them up in this respect, Rev. Henderson. GREAT BEND In this city we found several colored people engaged in the farm business, a number of wheat growers, as well as cattle growers. Every one was in the harvest field, therefore we were unable to see many of the people. Rev. J. A. Ramsey, pastor of the Baptist church, a progressive business man, is engaged in the junk business, owns a farm and is doing well. This is a minister who is doing much to build up the race, as the same time helping them and not living on them. We met Rev. S. B. Anderson, pastor of the A. M. M. church, who is a fine minister and doing well. The church is out of debt. He, too, as a minister is doing something good for the upbuilding of the Race. He owne property and is building houses to heup in the progress of the race not only in Kansas, but other states. The people are proud of him. We intended to visit the Robinson farm of something over four hundred acres of wheat, but owing to so much flood water in and around the Bend, we decided to wait until later on. Mr. and Mrs. G. W. Wells conduce a fine restaurant and eating house and have a fine trade. The Colored people need a grocery store and other business enterprises in this town. Mr. and Mrs. Wells pro elated over their new grand-daughter, Miss Catherine Arnes who is just four weeks old. Mrs. E. needed for the Supre TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING, JULY 15, 1291 Rucker owns a nice home and is a cateress with a good profitable business. WICHITA Here is found a city that is growing by leaps and bounds. There are millionaires which will always makes a town grow. The wealthy families have all Colored chauffeurs, domestic help and servants, whom they pay a good living wage. The Colored people are doing fine. They own four barber shops, which employ four and five barbers each; have five large, first-class rooming houses, which are doing a fine business; four or five cafes and eating houses; two drug stores, grocery stores and four or five churches. The Rev. E. T. Fishback, is now building a modern structure for his congregation at a cost of $50,000 and when completed it will be one of the finest and most up-to-date church edifices to be found in the state. We visited St Paul, of which Rev. J. R. Ransom is pastor. He has a fine congregation and one of the finest choirs in the state. The church is out of debt and a small balance is owed on the parsonage. Rev. Ransom is an all around minister who keeps in touch with all matters concerning the race and its welfare. In the morning he preaches soul stirring sermons and at night talks to his congregation of their earthly affairs and about the condition of the race, advising them as to what they must do and what to expect. There is also found an undertaking establishment along with other businesses. Rev. E. T. Butler and his congregation are doing fine. Mrs. Stelia Patton and her niece, Miss Luvena Harper, arrived from Los Angeles, last week and their many friends are congratulating them. Miss Luvena is the daughter of Mrs. Henrietta Harper, Grand Noble Governess of the Household of Ruth, of Kansas, and Mrs. Patton is her sister. They are both looking fine. Miss Luvena has just graduated from the high school of Los Angeles, with first class grades. She will now take up music in the State college at Los Angeles next term. Mr. Charles Childs, Grand District Secretary, of Odd Fellows of Kansas, has regained his health and will soon be on duty again. He favored us greatly by taking us over the city in his car, which was of great assistance to us in getting around o our subscribers. We are always pleased to meet him and love his assistance. His father and mother are among the prosperous of that city. They own good property both in Wichita and Newton and can sit down and enjoy a rainy day without being molested. When a young man he worked and saved his money, bought property and his wife was economical and business like assisted him. Now the old people are happy. We enjoyed a good meal with them. We met our old friend and acquaintance, John McCulloch, who is doing fine. He is going to attend the Supreme lodge in Topeka, in August and will wear the badge which was presented to him by his K. of P. lodge of Madison, Ill. It is a Past Chancellor's-emblem and he prizes it very highly. A woman who is doing things in Kansas is Mrs. Ada Barton Coulter. She is a wheel horse when it comes to business. She has just recently bought and erected two houses at 1021-23 Washington street. She also has several other lots on which she will erect other houses. She has two fine pieces of property on Main street. Each place being occupied and bringing in a nice income. She superintends her business and handles it with skill. She is strictly business and stands for nothing else from those who deal with her. If there is any one on earth who understands how to handle colorful it is she. She has just built a nice garage at the rear of one place of property on North Main street, where she keeps her automobile. Her cousin in the city of Topaña has been built to come to Wichita and make her home with her. She has some valuable property in the city of Topaña. She continues her husband is a mem EDITOR CHILES ON NATIONALBAPTIST COVENTON AT KANSAS CITY We visited the National Sunday School and B.Y.P.U. Convention at Kansas City, Mo, last week and must say it was a joke. There were only a few who could get the attention of the presidentet and only a few who could talk, these same fellows repeated themselves at each session and sometimes twice and three times during a session. We challenge anyone connected with that meeting in an official lapacity to show us one thing that was accomplished for the good of the church or the race, or that young people had a voice in creating any of the rules or motions to govern the body, although the poor washerwomen and other hard working women and children poured thousands of dollars into the coffers to send representatives and money to help other causes for the uplift of Christianity and fallen humanity. We challenge the financial report to sustain our charges and the bank certificate that the officials of this session can not produce ten per cent of the money raised at Kansas City for the specific purpose for what it was intended or raised by the respective district who represented, or the local Sunday Schools or B. Y. P. U, who paid in the money for certain purposes. If it can be proven that this is not true as stated by us, then we will pay Twenty five dollars into the treasury to help the cause we are supposed to be misrepresenting in this article. Now it is up to the officials to say so. If not successfully and intelligently contradicted, our charges will stand. We were amused at the southern delegates coming in Pullman cars, while at the same time going through the south, other members of the race were riding in Jim Crow cars on the same train and subject to insults from white demons. Our women and children have to stand all of this, while their followers in His footsteps snooze in perfect peace in the arms and state of the white devils who Jim Crow them as soon as they step out of the Pullman. Note the contrast: Our women and children riding Uncle Jim Crow all night, while their pastor who is to preach to them, meets them as they alight from the train with a "Good morning Sister, how did you rest last night?" She replies, "Oh Reverend, an old white man came into the front end coach winking at us, we had to make the conductor run him out." "Well sister," remarks the big feeling divine, "that is too bad. I wish I had been there, I would have made him know his place." "How did you rest, Revine. Nothing worrie? me at all. I just can't ride anywhere else when I am going north. We ride on special Pullmans" Well, replied this good sister, "I wish you ministers would try and make some effort to better our condition of traveling on rail roads. If you ministers whom we support, would use more of your time in helping to make conditions better and quit looking for the easier way to live and the largest congregation, who pays the most salary, our race would be better off. We are tired paying our money to send our ministers north in special Pullmans, while we have to ride in smokers and stand the insults of white brutes. "Well sister, you are right, but do you want your minister to live like you? You want him to have the best. You don't want him insulted by those white devils, do you? "Oh the Savvies was insulted and abused He walked, talked and slept with the of the fire department. Mr. Peter Coleman is doing a fine business at the city. THE EDITOR REV. 8. B. ANDERSON, PASTOR OF A.M.E. CHURCH, GREAT BEND, KANSAS A MINISTER WHO IS MAKING GOOD AND WANTS A WIFE While stopping in Great Dend a few days ago, we had the pleasure of meeting our old friend, the Rev. S. B. Anderson, who occupies the parsonage of the A.M.E. church, 1419 Williams street. He is a man whom the church and race can look upon with pride. He is now in the prime of life, and is a minister who has worked his way up to the top by being honest and loyal. He has built many churches, helped many people who were in need and saved his money and bought property until now he owns rental property in several different towns and cities. He can count his cash in four figures and we know wherein we speak. The only sad part of his life is that at the age of forty, he finds himself greatly in need of a good wife, one who is intelligent, kind, pleasant, a good house wife and who is between the age of 30 and 42 years of age. A woman who reads well and looks well, with no false make-up. He wants her just as the Lord made her, although she can be a widow, with little responsibility for him to assume. We have advised him to get a wife to assist him in his private affairs, as well as the church work. Her reputation must be first-class in the community from which she comes. REV. S. B. ANDERSON, PAS GREAT BEN Kansas City, Kansas, is making great preparation to entertain the Grand Lodge of the G. U. O. O. F. at their session which will be hold in that city, July 19-21, 1921. The Grand Master. N. W. Thatcher, is using his powers to the event of making this meeting one of the most successful in the history of the organization. multitude. He never kept aloft from the people only when he went out to pray. You ministers claim to be following in His footsteps, do you think if the Saviour were on earth today, He would stand for all the crimes and wrongs committed on our people without protesting against them. Aside from a mild rebuke in the pulpit, the majority of our ministers are "skinning 'em back" to Marse John. Now, brother, wake up, don't let your congregation and the public get on to you. They are waking up. Live for and with your people. Stand up for the right at all times and places. Col made all races in his own likeness and for His Glory, so serve Him and no other. Nick Chiles Ellor, Topka Plaindler Deputy, Kensington Defence Society PRICE $1.50 PER YEAR by U.S. Here is a fine chance for the right lady, who will she be? Address the Editor of the Topeka Plaindealer, or the Rev. S. B. Anderson, 1519 Williams street, Great Bend, Kansas. The following is what he has done in church work: Pastored at four or five different charges in Missouri. At Farmington, Mo, he paid for a new parsonage in 18 months, with a membership of only two male members. At Quinn Chapel, St. Louis, paid the first $10000 on the mortgage of $1500.00 which had stood for seven years. At Jackson, Mo, he paid the debts of long standing, painted the parsonage which had been there for 7 years without a coat of paint, paid back coal bills and in fact, paid all bills. He went to Poplar Bluff, and painted the church and parsonage, installed electric lights in parsonage and did other repairs and left the church $500 in debt. He came to Garden City, Kansas, where he built a three room block cement parsonage with less than 12 live members in 8 months, put electric lights in, furnished it up and left an indebtedness of $37820. They were three months ahead with their payments. Came to Great Bend, Kansas, and found a mortgage and many other debts on hand. In six months, the mortgage and other debts were paid off and the parsonage painted and today, the Trustees are out of debt and have money in the treasury. STOR OF A.M.E. CHURCH, D, KANSA8 SIILOII BAPTIST CHURCH August the 1st, the District Association and the B. Y. P. U. and Sunday School Boards will meet in this city with this church for a five days session. The members are preparing to entertain them royally. Deacon H. Edmonds and wife spent the 4th in Chicago, Ill. The interior of the church has been redecorated and a handsome new carpet will soon be laid. The Sunday School, under Sult. S E Hall, is progressing nicely. The banner is usually held by class 2 and 3, with Mrs. S. J. Williams and E. G. Greene, as teachers. The pastor, Rev. S. J. Williams, attended the Bible Institute at Topeka Industrial Institute. He also attended the Congress at Kansas City, last week. Miss Vivian Sims, daughter of Deacon Sims, is expected in the city in a few days. The Chorus of the D. Y. P.

There seems to be a concerted action on the part of the white pulps of Tulsa to make strong a most feeble attempt to justify mob action not only in that city of shame but elsewhere throughout the Southland and other sections of the states, where manhood, regardless of the overwhelming odds, would assert itself. Some of these learned men of the cloth, yen followers of the lowly Nazarene, in their brazen hypocrisy would beg the question, where and when will it end? It is indeed unfortunate that their training in this their life's work has been so incomplete that their individual lives have been forever void of that basic principle, "The Fatherhood of God—Brotherhood of Man." America will not be free from such eruptions until by every means of creating opinion the principle is accepted, and lived up to, that all persons are equal before the law, and are not only entitled to but will certainly receive prompt and equal justice in the courts. That principle will not become dominant unless it is taught in the schools, preached in the pulpits, declared in newspapers, and supported by the consistent practice of individual citizens in their dealings with other races. Unless the public mind and conscience are stirred to a new sense of obligation to do away with the causes of that inflammation, the outbreaks will grow worse. A special mandate rests upon Christian people in this matter. Their gospel is a law of love, as well as of justice. Their religion calls them to be "no respecters of persons." Upon them rests the prime responsibility of building the sea-wall against such tidal waves of passion as will at times roll up from that gulf of brutality which makes into our continent of civilization. Such a defense cannot be improvised while frenzied mobs are looting gunshops and lighting torches. Its foundations must be laid far back in home and school and Sunday school, and the courses must be raised by years of steady practice of racial justice until it becomes fixed in the character of every man and woman. There is not a day to be lost.—National Defender and Sun. WATCH FOR BAUGHMAN'S ICE CREAM WAGONS. FIRST OLASE JOB CREAM. JEWFS LUNCH, 1900 Vine Street, Kansas City, Mo.

ARE NEGROES OF THE NORTH OUTSTRIPPING THOSE OF THE SOUTH? WHY? (By The Continental Press Service) Pittsburg, Pa.—"I doubt seriously whether the Negroes of the South can any longer claim the leadership in business enterprises," said A. D. Hamilton, leading contractor and financier of Atlanta, Ga., at the conclusion of his tour of inspection here which carried him into every section of this district and practically every Negro business house. Continuing he said: "I can remember when Negro business concerns North of the Mason and Dixon line were curiosities, but now they are so numerous and varied as to be commonplace. I am immensely pleased with what our race is doing in a business way in all sections of the North that I have visited recently and I shall return to Dixie with a vivid impression of the rapid and inspiring strides our people are making in banking and manufacturing in the North." Mr. Hamilton was just from Columbus, Ohio, where, with a few prominent men from the South and North he had helped to launch the Supreme Life and Casualty Company which has a paid-up capital of $200,000. Mr. Hamilton is the Third Vice President of this corporation, and he is also Treasurer of The Standard Life Insurance Company of Atlanta, Ga. He is especially interested in Pittsburg where his son, T. B. Hamilton, who has just graduated in Banking and Finance at the University of Pittsburg, is now one of the tellers in the Modern Savings and Trust Company of Pittsburg. Mr. Hamilton made a careful study of the plans and policies of the Modern Savings and Trust Company and complimented President J. H. Phillips and the office force on the strictly business-like manner in which the work is handled. During Mr. Hamilton's short stay in Pittsburg he was in the hands of Dr. Walter S. Buchanan, business manager of The Competitor. Mr. Hamilton and his son were guests at dinner with Assistant City Solicitor and Mrs. R. L. Vann in the home of Dr. and Mrs. Walter S. Buchanan in Moutcello Street Thursday evening, and on Saturday evening several of the leading business men of Pittsburg sat down to dinner with him in the home of Mr. and Mrs. John T. Writt in Susquehanna Street. The party consisted of Mr. Jacob L. Phillips, Mr. T, W. Primas, Mr. W, T. Poole, Mrs. William D. Woods, Dr. A. N. Levy, Mr. E. J. Bullock, Dr. Walter S. Buchanan, Mr. Frank Archeal, and Mr. John T. Writt. The men spent several hours discussing business problems and possibilities in this district and all agreed that now as never before the Negro should invest in his own corporations and bank in his own institutions and so help the race to reach the rich reward which the business world makes possible. Do not wait too late to start on that cleaning campaign. August is just saying the hill. Do it now. THE NEGRO-HATING TRIBUNE The Chicago Tribune never misses an opportunity to throw the hooks into Negroes, Irish freedom and labor. So, in connection with the Tulsa race riots, it printed a story of the affair signed by Richard Lloyd Jones, publisher of the Tulsa Tribune. Jones used to be a liberal, but evidently he has changed his line of thought. He used up most of his space explaining that there were good negroes and bad negroes and that bad negroes were very bad men indeed. He didn't say a word about bad white men being very bad men indeed. He also said that race prejudice is as "ancient as time." One of the things that most surprised our soldiers who went to France was the discovery that in France there was no apparent prejudice against dark-skinned folk. A negro was as good as a white man. Racial and national prejudices are caused by exploitation of one group and thereby causing it to undercut the wages of another group. Men in the mass are very much alike. The percentage of "bad men" is about the same among blacks as it is among whites, reds, yellows, or any other color or kind of follicle—The New Majority.

Each day proves the failure of the white man's religion. We cannot accept his religious preachment in the same light as did our fathers. His idea and sense of honor in dealing with weaker races no longer invite our confidence. The grand jury and the leading movement to put the education of the Negro youth into the hands of gum chewing girls and an army of unsophisticated widows. They are determined to feed us on the husks of education. The American Federation of Labor is pleading for Irish freedom on one hand while part of its membership are condoning the K. K. K.. Funny etudes. The civile league has begun an intensive campaign against the evils of the school laws, that rob the Negroes out of their proper share of term and money. Light in Tulsa have proven their inability to handle the aftermath of the Tulsa race plot. The whites are acting on the presumption that they alone must decide on the injustice and guilt of all the Negroes. They begin at the middle instead of at the beginning. The constant rain is having a ruinous effect on grain. The potato crop is halted by the continued rain. There is a deep growing feeling in the minds of the Negro that he cannot get overhanded justice in this country. The desire to leave this country is growing more pronounced each car. Mexico seems to be their destination. Every time some ore oblige is to the oar of church extravagance, he is styled a dinner or against Christianity. We are against this annual costliness. then to the railroads of millions each year in the form of big meetings. The good citizen to a man is against this element of Negroes who hang around the pool rooms each day without any visible means of support. This class of cattle give birth to all the trouble that leads to race riots. Let the better class of Negroes assist the law in cleaning out these joints. They are incubators of crime, theft, gambling and murdering. It is up to the law abiding Negroes to help clean up. The police used the drag net last Thursday, may they deep drag to the end that descent people can get thru the street without having to hear so much of that barrel house muck.
