THE TOPEKA PLAINDEALER. TWENTY-THIRD YEAR Olathe was one of our first stops in Kansas, enroute to Oklahoma. The leading barber shop of the town is operated by a colored man. Most of the colored people have their own property. Mr. Box, one of the enterprising citizens of that town, has handled the mail between the station and the postoffice for several years. Some of the colored people live in Kansas City and work in Olathe. Here they are found engaged in section work on the railroad and in farm work. Several are engaged in city work, also. Rev James Holmes has charge of the Court House and is the owner of some good property. We were pleased to meet Mr. and Mrs. Ross, ploners of the town. Mr. Ross is an old soldier and served in the Civil War. Their daughter keeps house for them. They also have a son in Omaha, who owns and operates a drug store, another a teacher in the public school system of Kansas City, Mo., and still asother, who is a prosperous farmer. They own good property and are doing well. Mr. John Walker, the veteran house-cleaner, has all the work he can do. Prof. Porter, principal of the public school reports that everything in school work is moving along nicely and the school is in a splendid condition. Olathe has a fine class of colored citizens who stand for high morals and progressiveness. There has been a little stir in the papers for a few weeks over some mishappening between some white man and a colored woman. It is true that the County Attorney has been appealed to, to bring action against the white man, but up to this time, has refused to do so. If the better class of whites would show him up and tear the mask from his face, the community would be better off. This is the class of whites, who show the greatest dislike for the colored race in the day time, but seek their company in the shades of night. This man ought to be ferreted out. If necessary should be driven out of the town. This, so-called gentleman of purity, PAOLA Here we find a progressive little town. Business, however, is somewhat dull, as is the case generally. A few colored farmers are to be found in the vicinity. The school is principaled by Prof. John E. Lowry, a brilliant young man, who has succeeded his father, who served as principal for a long time. Our race here has two restaurants and a barber shop. Mr. Cooper is employed at the Court House and is a substantial citizen of this town. Mr. R. M. Shelby is still in charge of the Cooperative Grain and Elevator Co. where he has been for over twenty years. We were proud to visit his home and meet his wife and their three sweet, little ones, the baby, being just three months old. Mr. Shelby is one of the veterans of the town and is looked upon as one of the leaders and is well respected by both races. He has shown the young people what could be done to build up the population of the town. He is a progressive citizen and one of the best grain buvers in the state. We were the guests of Prof. Lowery and wife and little daughter, a sweet, little two year old lady, who keeps things lively around the household. Mr. KI Jackson has gone into the business of manufacturing concrete blocks for building purposes and is doing well. We passed thru Osawatomie, but did not stop, however, we understand the race population is growing a little, as the colored people are being employed now by the Missouri Pacific shops. We called upon our friends, Mr. Lays and daughter, whom we found well and getting on nicely. He is an employee of the Missouri Pacific company, where he has been for a number of years. GARNETT Our next stop we find that this is the county seat of Anderson county and there are a few prosperous farms in the community. Rev. Jas. Browne, who conducts one of the best and most successful shows. Historical Society State House isits the Folks in and Oklahoma. shops in the state. About 99 per cent of his business being among the whites. He is busy at all times. Has the latest improved machinery and is up-to-date in his business methods. He is pastor of the Baptist church and is now preparing to build as their church was burned sometime ago. The Reverend is one of the leading ministers of the state. A good business man and is held in high esteem by the citizens of both races in the town. He enjoys the company of his wife and little sixteen month old daughter, Mattie Ethlyn. His shop is located on the main street, where he owns the building, as well as other property. We were out in the Tolson settlement. We found Mr. Tolson one of Anderson County's leading farmers. While here we met Attorney Dorsey Green and Mr. George McClelland, of Kansas City. Mr. Tolson had planned to entertain the gentlemen with a rabbit hunt. The crowd started out on the hunt at 10:00 a. m. and at 12 m., had bagged seventy-five rabbits. Judge Green is always extolling his calling for hunting and his ability as a markman, to the fellows of Kansas City. The Tolson boys say that they usually shoot a rabbit on the run, but when they see a rabbit 'sitting', they call the Judge to take charge of them. So this easily accounts for him bringing in so many rabbits to Kansas City. What the Tolson boys did not shoot on the run, Judge Green got 'sitting'. Mrs. Nora Tolson served a fine dinner and every one enjoyed themselves. She was assisted by several ladies of that community. The widow Armstrong, has a very fine home here and is the leading cateress of the town. She has chickens by the hundreds and several fine hogs for which she finds a ready market. They own registered stock We were dinner guests of Mr. and Mrs. Lonian. COFFEYVILE is one of the thriving cities of the Southeast. The two races get along fine and the two schools here are greatly in need of improvements. Domestic Science and Art classes should be established in the schools. If the principal of the leading building would speak up a little, he could accomplish much for the good of the town and especially for the coming generation. The colored people own good homes and are a progressive lot. We found several good brick churches, a Building Loan Association, one of the only one of its kind in the west. It is owned and operated by race people. They are aiding our people in buying and building homes. Dr. Whittaker is closing his sanitarium and is going to California to make his future home. Messrs. Eagleson and Williams are the proprietors of a first class drug store and are doing well Mr. Eagleson wants to go to California on account of his health. This will afford a splendid opportunity for some enterprising race man to secure a good location and an established business. The D'ckerson Clothes Cleaning company is doing fine. Mr I H T Smith, the veteran real estate and loan agent at 406 Union avenue, is doing a thriving business and is building a new office next door to his residence. He enjoys his four months old baby girl, and states that this is concrete evidence that an old man can come back if he wants to. His wife is associated with him in the business and they are doing well. N. B. Anderson owns a fine residence at 403 Union street where he resides. It is beautifully furnished and everything up-to-date. They also conduct a fine pool hall, cigar and soft drink stand. He is an ardent supporter of the race and a benefactor to old people and children. Mr. A; G. Green has just purchased a home and enjoys the company of his wife and baby. Mr. Hightower the policeman, stands high on the force because he does his duty in a fearless and dignified manner. TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING. ```markdown ``` The Plaindealer extends it's large family of Readers a Merry Merry Christmas. ner with Mr. and Mrs. Hunnigan who owns one of the finest family grocery stores in the city and owns one of the finest and most beautiful homes in Coffeyville. COL. FRANK TRAVIS The people of Kansas one every thing to Superintendent Frank Travis. Mr. Jones is the owner of one of the first-clasg restaurants in that town. There are two and the other is owned by Mr. Donsell. Both are doing a good business. LENAPAH was our next stop in the state of Oklahoma. This is a few miles to the south of Coffeyville on the Interurban line which runs from Nowata to Coffeyville. This at one time was a large gathering place for the tribes. They have one school, of which Miss Eva Halloway, is the principal and she is doing much for the race. The colored people who own some good property around the town are doing well in various lines. Rev. A. T Tucker is an old veteran barber of the town. We found race women here who control the wealth and business of their husbands handling thousand of cattle and hogs. NOWATA has a progressive class of citizens, and a fine school and the finest business we found here and one which is a credit to that community, was that conducted by Mr. Joo Pierce, a first-class store. He carries a complete line of the latest styles in clothing, hats, etc., also has a fine clothes cleaning business. He has what is known as the 'underground' system, where his gasoline is filtered before it is used for cleaning purposes. It was certainly a pleasure to go thru this plant and see the improved methods used by Mr. Pierce. His wife assists him in his business in the capacity of cashier and looks after the business end of the concern. He employs a number of people and stands high among the citizens of that community. He does an extensive tailoring business and does cleaning for the wealthiest class of people in the city. The colored people are proud of their principal, Prof J O. Spencer, who has caused to be erected a fine, brick school building. He is certainly doing good work for the colored citizens of this community Mr Ezell conducts a fine grocer, business assisted by his wife. Mr. Henton, the proprietor does a fine business and owns fine property in the town. Mrs. F. Craggett conducts a fine cafe and does a good business at all times. She is also correspondent for the Maindealer, is a good business woman and deserves being helped in her business. The colored people are doing well here and are now buying property in large numbers. A shoe shop and a number of other enterprises constitute the commercial status of the race here. CLAREMORE is a watering place where hundrels go to seek relief from the Radium water to be found here. Mr. Gog conducts a hotel and his business is holding up very well, Mr. Watson, the tailor, conducts a splendid business. Dr. Lee, the physician, is still here and has a nice practice. Mr. William Raim is a fine man and a property owner. DECEMBER 23, 1921 The people of Kansas one everything to Superintendent Frank Travis, who is serving his second term as State Commissioner of Insurance, and can have the third and fourth terms if he desires. He has certainly stood up for what was right between the policy-holders and the compaines. He has never favored one for the other. As a rule insurance companies exact big premiums from their policy holders, but when it comes to pay off, they would try to squeeze the holders by loping off from 20 to 40 per cent or probably not attempt to pay at all. This Mr. Travis would not stand for and he is the first commissioner of Kansas, who had the nerve to make the insurance companies dig up. His friends want him to go to Congress from the second district. He is thinking it over and it may be that he will make the race and if he does do so that same fighting spirit and soldierly courage, which characterized him in the world war, will be found marching from the mouth of the raging Kaw to the south end of Bourbon County, where Howat and the Kansas State Militia are now raising Hades, telling the voters to get in line for a better country. THE NEW YORK TIMES [Name not visible in the image] --- COL. FRANK TRAVIS CAESAR SIMMONS RETIRES AS POSTMASTER AT BOLEY, OKLA. BOLEY, OKLA., Dec. 1—Special to the Plaindealer.) Prof. Caesar F. Simmons, post master for seven years retired to the great regret of the entire citizenship of Boley. He has proves a christian gentleman of the highest type. He is honest, progressive and true, and maintains the entire confidence, respect and friendship of all the people. He has built up for us the best organized post office of this class in the entire state and is appreciatel with the highest gratitude. Mrs. Alfreda Hampton is temporary in charge. No more self sacrificing race man ever lived than Caesar F. Simmons; broad and charitable to all—he has put in more than double service for the past five and a half years and has received many compliments and praise from his patrons and the department. The change in the administration no doubt, had some bear- CAESAR F. SIMMONS ing in connection with his early retiring, as his reappointment would not have expired until 1923. His future plans have not been announced. Since being in office Prof. Simmons has installed every piece of modern device for a post office, including steel equipment to the amount of $6000, and the P. O. Department had granted him a ten year lease on the same, 1920 to 1930. The retiring of Postmaster Caesar 1914 COLONEL FRANK TRAVIS STATE SUPERINTENDENT OF INSURANCE. F. Simmons from the postoffice at Boley, Okla., to be regretted. He gave seven years of honest and untold hard labor to make the office a good one and the patrons feel that they were being served faithfully. The government never provided the necessary help, nor the proper amount of money that was needed to keep the office up to where Mr. Simmons had brought it. He worked day and night and on Sundays as well to maintain the high standard which he desired maintained by the government office in a Negro town. The office does a tremendous business and if the citizens and patrons of Boley want better service, they had better petition the government to allow more help. Postmaster Simmons is a man who believes in progress and a thorough race man. He has done much to secure for the race in that state the necessary support from the state government through appropriations, the State Reformatory for Colored boys at McAllester, by organizing the teachers and superintendents of schools, Juvenile Court officers, County officers and pointing out the harm being done by not providing a suitable place for the youth of the race before they became hardened criminals. This and many other things he has brought to pass in the state of Oklahoma for the good of both races. He has also done great work for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. He is an affable and courteous gentleman and has served the citizens of the state and county well. He is a valuable asset to that community and the state at large. Mr. and Mrs. Henry O. Mariott, are moving into their handsome new bungalow on the Ozark Trail. Mrs. Mariott, was formerly Miss Alice Carter, of Emporia, Kansas. Mr. Mariott is a rural carrier of Route No 2. Washington, Dec. 21.—Pinckney Benton Pinchback, Negro governor of Louisiana from December 6, 1872 to January 18, 1873, died here tonight. He was 84 years old and had lived in Washington for the past thirty years. PRICE $1.50 PER YEAR BOLEY, OKLA.
