The Topeka Plaindealer KANSAS BAPTIST STATE CONVEN- TION MEETS By Chas. Stewart. Atchison, Kansas, Oct. 5. "Unless there is a halt called to the Ku Klux Klan, and right now, there is likely to be in our country a civil war, for it is impossible for a government to exist within a government." was the declaration made by the Rev. Dr. W. A. Bowren, in addressing the Baptist State Convention at the opening of the thirtieth annual session in Ebenezer, Baptist church in Atchison. There were present fully five hundred people from all parts of the state and a number of visitors from other states. The convention represents the practical religious work of the colored Baptists of Kansas, and there is also a meeting of the Women's Home and Foreign Missionary Convention, presided over by Mrs. Emma Gaines, of Topeka, who has been president for the past 25 years, and was re-elected to succeed herself for the 26th time. This part of the convention was in session Tuesday and Wednesday, and touched many phases of racial lift. It took up especially the home life of the race, and the religious training of the children. In her opening remarks on Tuesday morning Mrs. Gaines said, "If the Negro is to be saved, the woman must do her part. She helped to introduce sin and she must help to wipe it out. She also has the making of our men and women, for it is she who must look after the training of the boys and girls, out of whom must come the men and women. We are here this week to work to that effect." The convention opened with devotionals by Mrs. L. V. Halm, Mrs. Cora James, Mrs. Ollie Morton, and Rev. Chas. Britton. Then followed the reading of the program prepared by the executive committee, with several changes adopted. A list of the committees-were appointed, and the convention turned attention to business. The Rev. Dr. George McNqil, of Kansas City, Kansas, paid a high tribute to woman and her work in the moral uplift of the race. He declared that the world had never witnessed a higher womanhood than the women of his race in America. He spoke of her hardships, through which she had passed, and then her holding up her head, building the churches, the school houses, the cottages and sending the gospel to foreign lands as well as in the rural districts of home. The program for the two days was indeed interesting. The main feature being the annual address of Mrs. Emma Gaines, whuh touched every phase of the work being done by women in this country. Following her address she was re-elected. Charles Stewart, A. M., D. D. general missionary of the National Baptist convention was present and made an address. Rev. Sammie Martin, of West Africa, also addressed the convention. Miss Julia Guthrie, of Atchison made some remarks. She is one of the leaders among the young women. All the officers were re-elected and there were great reports made from the National Baptist convention which met in Chicago. "Unity" was the theme which opened the convention presided over by Dr. Rowren, the leader of the Negro Baptists in Kanquis and a representative of the National Baptist convention. Dr. Rowren is a graduate from the Simmons University, Louisville, Kentucky. Revs. J. A. Duncan and P. C. Crutchfield conducted the opening Tuesday morning. Addresses of welcome were delivered by Dr. G. A. Patton; the Rev. C. R. Tucker, of the A. M. E church; Rev. D. J. R. Roman, of the Zion Baptist church; Ex. Governor, W. J. Bailey, Rev. W. O. Shank; Dr. Grundy, of Mount Olive Baptist church; and H. W. White, of St. Paul Church. The Rev. S.J. Williams, D. D., of Topeka, responded to the addresses. The annual address was delivered in the afternoon of the first day by Dr. W. A. Bowren, which was a master piece of op artistry and eloquence. He was again elected to head the MUSKOGEE, OKLA. As a result of a pernicious school mow, the teachers are delayed in getting their pay. Such conduct on the part of the high officials is driving the most efficient teachers out of the state and profession. This is what is was designed to do. Mr. Hodges, the Grand Master of the Wisemen is dangerously ill. His recovery is very doubtful. Now, that the various Grand Masters are to organize a Council, it maybe we will get some release from emotional sanctification and belt and brimatone convulsion. We have 22 different church associations this summer, all in a radius of 10 miles of Muskogee. We will have 8 state meetings during the fall. All for the edifaction, gratification and grabification of the Negro ministers. The more one sees of the foolhardness of Negroes about his creed, more one is forced to doubt his inability to "come up" in the scale of civilization. It is high time for the Negroes in the M. E. church to see about who holds the deeds to their property. That is, the place where they go to worship. The old system of allowing the whites to have and control the reality, has become disgusting and revolting. No hospital, day nursery, library, Y. M. C. A., Y. W. C. A., Old folks Home, or any racial institution, speaks bad for the Negroes. There is not a race institution in the city of Muskogee. It is either denominal, private or county property. The death of Mrs. Morgan out at Old Agency, was sad news to the community. She was a great woman. Rev. H. T. S. Johnson, the Hycockolium of the Inter-Racial Congress spent a few days in Muskogee the most week. Johnson has talked so much about this movement, until he has allowed himself to become serious. This is self abnegation with a vengeance. I have had a Herculean task in prying out the tender brains of some of our 'big' men, the collossal conspiracy, the perilous intrigue, the insidious motive behind this Interracial movement. Their docility is being reinforced by positions and the 'willing confession of a few sanctified, weeping Willies' of the Southland. It all came from Georgia. The Community Fairs that were held at Wybark, Tullahasse and Taft did more good than all the conferences and conventions since Statehood. This don't mean not to go to church. The last delegate from the National Convention came straggling in after being marronned, financially, for the last two weeks. It may be such examples will serve to keep the washer women at home. The gruesome murder, lynching, butchering and depredation committed on the helpless Negro in the last century, is no wmanifesting itself thru various channels. In the case of the Negro, the government took refuge behind state rights. To preach hope to a weak race, when the clouds of destruction are gathering thick and fast, is, the blackest piece of conspiracy any leaders could commit. I am just ringing the signal bell, an advance courier, a prophet of a worse day for the American Negro. It is a case of racial sombumballism it seems nothing will arouse my people but an earthquake of slaughter. One should be hopeful and patient when the conditions justify, but to hypnotize yourself into a childish fancy, is the very acme of 'damfoolery'. The press reports said there were 25,000 Baptists from all parts of the country gathered at Chiqigo. It also said there was $25,000 raised for all purposes. Allowing $10,000 to the delegates for railroad fire, which is $250,000. Who got the best of the deal, the Baptists or the railroads? It is just this kind of drunken extraagence we are against. In the face of all the persuasion, lectures and begging on the part of the better class of Negroes, along with the open handed insults by certain element of whites, some Negroes, pushed themselves into the Fair. It makes one feel real 'Klanish'. When ever you see a white man, pa a rule, laying around the homes of Negroes, he has one of three reasons, the prostitution of women, money or have them work for him. The fight on the white insurance men, who visit Negro homes, must be given a greater impetus. The Negro women who encourage these men by insisting on keeping up these cheap policies, must have the "rlot act" read to them. IF YOU ARE SEEKING NEWS OF YOUR HOME TOWN-ABOUT ALL THE FOLKS BACK THERE, THE OLD TIMERS WHO ARE BACK ON A VISIT-THEN THE TOPEKA PLAINDEALER IS THE PAPER YOU Baptists of Kansas. The session is proving interesting and the church is crowded at each session. TEXAS OBJECTS TO RELEASE OF 24TH INF. BOYS TEXAS OBJECTS TO RELEASE OF 24TH INF. BOYS Houston, Tex. Oct. 7.—Over 6 000 business men of this city represented in the Chamber o Commerce have sent a telegram to President Harding demanding that he ignore the petition presented to him by officers of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and others, in behalf of the 61 former soldiers of the 24th Infantry Regiment who are now serving long-time sentences in Lqivenworth. Besides the telegram dispatched by the Chamber of Commerce another was sent by County Judge Chester A. Bryan. Both these messages urge upon the President that he restrain a use of executive clemency and permit the heavy decision of the strange court-martial held in Houston is stand. The judge even goes so far as to admit that, at the time of the rioting, the lynch spirit was in the air. He commends Houstonians for their conservatism in handling the situation and for "yielding their own impulses and believing that the offenders would be adequately punished by law." Houston Telegram The text of the Chamer of Commerce telegram reads: "Press reports announce presentation to you of petition for release of Negro rioters from 24th Infantry convicted of rioting in this city in 1917. Representing the commercial interests of this city and with a membership of over 6,000 business men, this organization protests against the release of these Negroes. To afford them their liberty is but to invite a recurrence of this amenable amir suffered by this community and for their part in which these men are now paying the penalty. We doubt if 1 per cent of those who signed the petition presented to you know the facts surrounding the conviction of these men. Charge Prejudice "It is evident from press reports that an appeal has been made to those who signed this petition based only on race association, and we submit that there will be no advancement to the Colored Race by releasing these rioters to go among their own color and be looked upon and welcomed as heroes. Such a situation would encourage further disorder, and we especially submit that the time is especially appropriate now for an insistence upon the ob servance of law and a strict payment of the penalty when the law is violated. We sincerely hope your excellency will permit the full payment of the penalty adjudged by a fair court after a fair trial in the case of these men." The judge in his telegram claimed to represent both races throughout the county. K. I. E. I.

End runs by Mosley, line plunges by Burton, Stevens and Gartwright, and the defensive playing of Burris were the features of the game. Two touchdowns were made in the first quarter and one in the last. This was the first game of the season and both teams played good ball. With the exception of three men the Institute's team is new, and Coach Abbott has developed a wonderful backfield out of last year's substitutes who, before the season is over will make themselves felt to many teams.

The Jersey man may have invented ice cream soda, but a New York Negro pastry chef is said to have invented ice cream 105 years ago last month. Sambo Johnson was the name of this great benefactor of the human race. For many years Samo' had a monoply on the ice cream industry, as he clocely guarded his secret. About all that is known of hte discovery is that it was the result of an accident. Later, Sambo's rivals took up the manufacture and developed different flavors. In Mr Johnson's day ice cream was served in a plate and dished out with a spoon. The patent scoop and mixtures of colored juices and fruits are tionof comparatively modern application—New York Sun. OUST KLAN JURORS Judge BBtterly Opposes "Un-Amer- can's Serving in Courts CHICAGO, Ill., Oct. 7—Judge Joseph B. David, at a hearing of a $5000 damage suit against the city of Chicago, brought by the widow of Joseph Sanford, Colored, who was killed during the race riot in 1919, refused last Monday to allow anyone to sit on a jury who is a member of the Ku Klux Klan. "Members of the Ku Klux Klan are not 100 per cent Americans," the judge declared. "They are not fit to be jurors in any court in the United States." Counsel for Mrs. Sanford was questioning the jurors when the judge interposed. He first asked whether any of them were prejudiced against any religion or race, and three of the jurors admitted they were. TO MAKE FRED DOUGLASS HOME HALL OF FAME Washington, Oct. 8—Frederick Douglass' home in Anacostia, D. C., will be the great hall of fame for colored Americans, according to Mrs. Mary B. Talbert, president of the National Federation of Colored Women's Clubs, which has taken charge of the former home of the great Marylander. According to Mrs. Talbert, the dedication of the home will take place following the bi-annual meeting of the Federation in Richmond next year, at which time President Harding and other prominent men and women will be present. Contracts have been let for the complete renovation of the place, which will be made to look as it did when Frederick Douglass actually lived there. Pictures of various men and women will be placed in the hall of fame at the home by vote of the National Federation when in session. Mrs. Talbert also appeals for relics in the form of battle flags, slave bills of sale or anything else contributory toward the history of negros in America.

(Special to the Black Dispatch)—Dick Rowland Negro bellhop, who, it was alleged committed the crime of rape upon the person of Sarah Page, about whom the riots of June 1st in this City were percipitated, was released from the county jail today and the charges against him dismissed.

Bonds in the remaining cases were reduced by the court today from $3000 to $2500. Christ is not sweet until am has been made bitter to us. As we advance in life we learn the limitations of our abilities. RACE MEN IN THE PHILIPPINE ISLANDS ON TOP From Seattle Enterprise Note: This article was written expressly for the Seattle Enterprise, by John F. Cragwell, passenger on the First Voyage to the Orient of the S. S. Wenatchee. It is the most accurate data on the activities of Race men in the Orient ever compiled. During my stay in Manilla, I was the guest of Dr. H. Fitzbutled, Col. Walter Loving and Thos. Pritchard. Their long residence in Manilla and their prominence in the business life of the Island gave them an intimate knowledge of the activities of a small but very progressive group of Race men who are successfully engaged in "doing things worth while." By conversation and introduction I was able to secure the following data: / W. A. CALDWELL—Born in Texas, has been in the Islands since the "Days of the Empire," and occupies a prominent place in the Accounting and Auditing Division of the Constabulary.

Brooklyn, owns Adams' Hotel and Cafe, and is one of the most famous chefs to be found in the Far East. BISHOP VERNON IN AFRICA. From New York Age Front all reports that have reached this country, the African Methodist Episcopal Church did a wise thing when it assigned Bishop William Tecumseh Vernon to Africa. The section of the continent where Bishop Vernon's work is located is the Union of South Africa, where the political control is divided between Boer and Briton, and where anything that tends to serve the native interests is regarded with fear and suspicion. Despite this discouraging state of affairs, it is reported that Bishop Vernon has made such a fine impression on the people of both races that he is getting cooperation and support in his work on all sides. The fact that he has been able to secure such a measure of freedom for the activitis of the denomination argues a great deal for his ability as a diplomat, as well as a messenger of the gospel. Bishop Vernon's former experience as an educator of national reputation and as Register of the United States Treasury, has evidently served him in good stead. We trust that his success in dealing with the authorities as well as with the native workers to whom he is commissioned, will continue and result in the growth of African Methodism to the greater good of the natives of South Africa. The number and value of his thots determine a man's value to society. Unbelief is criminal because it is a moral act—an act of the whole nature. This office has left on hand some of the famous CILILES' COLORED KEWPIE DOLLS, which were made for the Pythian Encampment. We are now offering them to our readers who did not have the opportunity to attend the Encampment. Send us $1.25 which includes postage and we will make immediate shipment.

BE YOURSELF YOURSELF AGAIN --- BE YOURSELF AGAIN PE-RU-NA WILL HELP YOU The chances are that you are suffering from catarrhal poisons which have gone all over your system resulting in loss of weight, strength, nerve force and ambition. Systemic catarrh acts that way. The poisons have accumulated faster than the organs of elimination could throw them off, the human machinery has become clogged to the point of breaking down and the general health collapses. There is in every such case a stagnation of the mucous surfaces preventing normal action of one or more of the vital organs. What is needed is a remedy of tonic properties that will invigorate the whole body by restoring digestion and cleaning up the stagnation. For fifty years Dr. Hardman's Pe-ru-na has been performing just that service for millions. Designed especially for all forms of catarrh and catarrhal poisoning the action of Pe-ru-na is very direct and satisfying as is testified by many, many users. The great success of Pe-ru-na in such cases makes it worthy of your trial. SEND FOUR CENTS FOR BOOK ON CATARRII. For Sale Everywhere THE PE-RU-NA CO. Columbus, O. U. S. A.
