Plaindealer

THE TOPEKA PLAINDEALER. Dyer Anti-Lynch Bill Passes in House --- THE TWENTY-FOURTH YEAR Dyer A OKLAHOMA The last Lap of the Editor's Swing in the Oil and Cotton belt. Vlan is a town on the Iron Mountain railroad and largely a farming community. The Race here is doing well and making wonderful programs. One store, a restaurant and a second hand store, of which the citizens are proud, are all doing a substantial business. The cotton crops has been somewhat affected by the Boll Weevil. The Plaindealer is read by a number of subscribers within a radius of eight miles of this town. At Mitch, there is a cross-roads post office, a grocery store and a district school. It is six miles from Vian and located in one of the richest and most fertile soil communities in the entire state. For a number of years the Colored farmers controlled this entire farming section and most of the land was occupied by natives., but we found most of the land at this time occupied by the hill billies from southern states, Arkansas, in particular. There is, however, hundreds of acres of land, yet in the heads of our people and those of better judgment are holding on tight. The Colored postmaster, Mr. Mitchell, after whom the town was named, is an exceptional man, full of enterprise and energy. The township school is located at this point, having four teachers, is crowded to capacity and the work stands out well. Prof Gillian, the principal, is one of the leading lights of the community, who is living and setting an example for the people of this community, both pupils and citizens, by buying and owning farming lands and actually farming the same. The lady assistants in the school are representative and doing some good work here. In and about Mitch we found a number of progressive farmers. In spite of the Boll Weevil, several of them are doing well. This land is too valuable to dispose of and our people should take courage and hold on to it as it is valuable beyond any doubt and will reap big harvests to those who stay by it. At Fort Gibson, we found a single restaurant, barber shop and a store. Mr. Clark Ford is the leading barber and owns the building on the main street in which his shop is located. He is very proud of his little adopted son, James, who is a bright and cheerful little fellow. The restaurant owner is a fine man and conducts a first-class eating house and is very enterprising and energetic. Muskogee was our next stop. A progressive town and the colored people are well established. The city can boast of having a splendid group of race people, who have very little or no trouble among themselves. They own good homes in every section of the city. Muskogee altho in Oklahoma, is situated somewhat different from most cities, in that our racial group is not confined to any one section of the city, but is noticeable over the entire city, where this property was taken up by our people when Muskogee was laid out by the allottee, years ago. Therefore Muskogee's race population is not a segregated one by any means. As for the business status of the race here, there are a number of lawyers, doctors, dentists, as well as numerous well established business men and firms. In fact, they have several wealthy men and women. The worst thing that can be said about the colored people of Muskogee is, that the MEN wear an angle worm back-bone. When a question arises pertaining to their constitutional and political rights, they do not stand up in the many way which they should be devise and bring about means and action which would bring the desired results. Here is found some of the leading attorneys of the state and yet, they have not the manhood and courage to advance the thought to protect the --- people in their rights. The school proposition is outrageous, unchristian and unjust. The colored people are taxed to educate the white people in the city and the rural districts outside of Muskogee are taxed to educate the colored people in the city of Muskogee. The colored teachers are poorly paid and the old dilapidated brick structure and teaching equipment is entirely unsuited and insufficient. The Race here receives six or seven months of school while the white pupils receive and enjoy nine months. Yet the race stands for these outrages. The colored man who we find to be making the headway and the one of which the city is proud, is Mr. Chas. Jones. A young man who started out in life with Muskogee as the base of his start, with nothing save determination, pluck, grit and energy. For years he portered at hotels and at the same time gained the necessary knowledge to do business. He never lost any time in studying under those for whom he he was employed, as to what was the proper method of success in life. Fifteen years ago he was married and today he is making the old timers sit up and take notice. Those things they said could not be done, he has easily brought to pass. By wise speculating and trading, he now owns and controls twenty-five hundred acres of land. We are proud indeed, to say that he is Kansas product, which accounts for part of his ingenuity and ability in the business world. He stopped school when he was a fifth grade pupil, but it is a pleasure to be with him for a few hours and see him manage his business. He conducts a produce and commission house and feed store, and supplies coal and other commodities with which to furnish the tenants on his many farms. He also does a large business in the city. His business is located in a large two story brick building where his tons of feed, flour, grain and produce is housed. He deals in pultry, eggs, and in fact everything that is to be found on the market. From the early morning hours, farmer's wagons and trucks are jammed in front of his place one unloading and another loading. He has a lady clerk and bookkeeper who has become very proficient and has systemized the business that he can be away from his place for weeks at the time and everything is to be found in fine shape. On his farms he has cattle, hogs, poultry and he conceived the idea that the race in that city was not getting the proper treatment in the eating houses, nor getting the worth of their money, so he opened up a restaurant and named it the Country Restaurant, at 204 S. 2nd street. When he announced to the people he was going to open his restaurant and supply it with the meats and produce grown on his farm and that the bill of fare would be fine and wholesome, the rates low and in reach of all, the rich and poor alike, they were started and amazed. When the patrons started in they found that thirty-five to forty cents bought such an amount that they could not begin to consume all that was placed before them. The news spread like wild fire and to the majority of people who head for the state of Oklahoma receive the word "early to go to Charlie Jones' Country Restaurant at 204 S. Second street. It is amazing to see the crowd going there from morning until night. He employs several waiters and cooks and is doing the business while the other restaurants are looking on. His tenants on his farms, both colored and white, speak in the highest terms of his business dealings and the treatment accorded by him. We were informed that he has over a hundred share renters. He also owns and controls oil wells which bring in a handsome income. People going to Muskogee will do well to call and see Mr. Jones at 210 Denison street. He also deals in and handles real estate and loans, farm and oil leases, selling and renting. See him before closing deals in this line. At his place on Denison, is to be found one of the busiest places in the city. We enjoyed his company and hospitality in an auto ride over a few of his farms and we must say that we cannot begin to express what we saw and heard of this great young man Mr. Jones, of Muskogee. We met here in Muskogee, th: Rev. W. E. Stuart, pastor of the 2nd Baptist church who has a membership of over eight hundred and church property worth Fourteen thousand dollars. Rev. E. C. pastor of the M. E. church is preparing to build an institutional church, at a cost of over Forty thousand dollars. Mr. Thoe. Gray owns and controls one of the largest barber shops in Oklahoma. He is a Kansas man and his wife is one of the prominent teachers in the city schools. At Tallahassee, we found the A. M. E. school Flipper-Key-Davies in a flourishing condition. This is a flourishing little town composed of our racial group. They operate two stores, a restaurant and two cotton gins. The Mission Brothers conduct the post office and a general store. We were sorry to learn of the death of one of the brothers at our last visit. He was always corseted and polite, as is his brother who is now in charge. He was loved and highly respected by the citizens and was one of the leading race men. Mr. George W. Minor now owns a drug store as well as practices medicine here. The effect of the short cotton crop is noticeable here. Red Bird, our next stop, is also a colored community and has three or four stores, a barber shop. The Miller-Washington High School has recently been completed and Prof. J F. Calhey, is principal. This is an imposing brick structure and was build at a cost of several thousand dollars and is an up-to-date building. The furniture has been installed and a traveling library has been instituted. Prof. Cathy is to be complimented for having secured for the people of this community a fine building and a splendid corps of able teachers, as well as the introduction of domestic science and art departments. These improvements make the school at Red Bird, one of the best in the state. We had the pleasure of attending the exercises and confess the school is right up along educational lines. The taxpayers are certainly getting the best for their money in this community. Prof. Cathy is a man of untiring educational ability, a real educator who puts his heart and soul in the work for the good he can do the people and not the money. Mr. and Mrs. Bradley conducts a grocery store and are on the road to prosperity At Sand Springs, we had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Charles Page, the multi millionaire, who owns and controls that progressive little town and who supports an orphan's home; old folks home and other, charitable institutions at this place, at his own expense. He is a high-class gentleman, and a white man whom the Lord is pleased to bless, for the reason he is good and kind to all, regardless of race. He has always been charitably disposed toward our group and is always ready to respond to an honest call, when made to him by those of our race who are doing something for the good of humanity. He is a pleasing man to meet, is a reader of the Plaindealer and we found it a source of pleasure to talk with him. At this point we pause to urge the race everywhere to respond to the needs and wants of those who are suffering on account of the Tulsa Riot. All money, clothing or anything that the people wish to donate will be received by Mr. Hooker, who is conducting the campaign at Tulsa Mr. Hooker lost several thousand dollars in his dry goods store. He is an upright, Christian gentleman and will account for everything you send him and see that the needy ones get what is sent to him. Boley one of the largest towns in the world controlled by colored people is growing and on the upward trend, notwithstanding the shortage of crops. The race in and about Boley own gold and know nothing but gold. The farmers are progressive and wear no long face. Since the establishment of the establishment of the First National Bank, the commercial status of the race has taken on new life. This bank- the first of its kind in the world, is safe and as sound as the rocks of Olbraltar and will no doubt be an added blessing to the race in this section of the state. Mr. L. H. Dolphin who operates the gasoline, oil and garage on the --- Ozark Trail at Bolsy, is a young man, full of push and energy. He was married on the 5th day of December to one of the most prominent and beautiful young women of the city, Miss Cleo Celeste Floyd, a highly cultured young lady. Mr. Dolphin is a graduate from the Dougherty Commercial College of Topeka, Kansas. The colored churches and ministers work in harmony and are making splendid progress in the religious work of this city. Mr. Berry of the Commercial Hotel is conducting a fine cafe in the Masonic building. She had the misfortune of having the hotel destroyed by fire, however the citizens have raised quite a sum of money to assist her in rebuilding, as it was a total loss and no insurance to cover loss. CLearview: Here is the town where the race realizes that it is a coming community and are holding on tight to their land on which there is any sign of oil. Oil has been obtained in several places in and around this section. Mrs. M. L. Goggern, who was postmaster for sometime has resigned that position and is now devoting her time to the oil business and wells. Here is a widow who some time ago purchased eighty acres of land and held it until now and she is growing wealthy each day. Mr. J. Thompson is the leading real estate and loan agent, who is dealing in oil wells and lenses as well as being an operator. The town is growing fast. We stopped at Wewoka and found our people singing the blues as the Boll Weevil had set them back. At Holdenville, we found Mrs. Jas Redd, conducting a fine restaurant and doing well. They are property owners and are loved and respected by all. They are Kansans and have the Kansans spirit about doing and bringing things to pass. Mr. Benjamin J Barnett is a progressive young oil man and controls something over a thousand acres and ten or fifteen oil well. He is a former student of Western University at Quindaro, where he pursued work in the commercial department which has been a most valuable asset to him in his business. At Okmugice, we stopped over for few hours and visited our young friend, Harry O Abbott and wife. This newly wedded couple are enjoy- ing life and we had the pleasure of having breakfast in their neat little bungalow. Mr Abbott has a fine print shop and a good business. He is another Kansas with the right spirit. At Doynton: Here is a growing town where the race owns farms and seems to be doing well. Rev. Kersah and wife own fine property. Judge Lee an attorney is also doing fine here. Mr Wilson and wife own a handsome bungalow and other city property. He has a son attending Lincoln University at Jefferson City, Mo. Dr Perry, a practicing physician is doing fine. At this place we stopped with Mrs. Wamble, one of the most progressive citizens who has many friends. PEACE PACT ANSWERS 100 YEAR PRAYER OF AGED IRISH LADY Greenwood, Ill. Jan 10—Every night for a century Mrs Mary Vermett, 110, the world's oldest Irish patriot, has prayed that Ireland might be free. And today—With the Anglo Irish treaty ratified by both nations— With the Sinn Fein leaders setting up a truly Irish government— With Ulster hinting it will seek admittance to the new Irish free state Mrs. Vermett is convinced that Erin's good fortune is God's answer to her century of prayer. "Sure, it's proof there's a God in Heaven," she says. "Thru all these years I've been arsying, I've known that God would bide His time and do His justice" Mrs. Vermett was born on Christmas day in 1811, near Cork. In 1840 she was married. With her husband she crossed the Atlantic in a sail-boat and traveled across the American continent in an ox cart. The couple settled in this isolated spot in Illinois. Deandie her extreme ag", Mrs. Ver- At the recent meeting of the directors of the Merchants National Bank, of this city, Mr. J. Ernest Jones, for over sixteen years, one of the most loyal and progressive young man connected with that institution, was advanced to the position of Cashier. The Merchants National bank is one of the most substantial banks in the country and its officials are indeed proud of Mr. Jones long and efficient service therewith. Mr. Jones was born in Emporia and educated in the schools of that city. Starting as a clerk in the Emporia National bank, where he served for three years, he resigned to accept the higher position as bookkeeper of the bank here at 605 Kansas avenue, and which at that time was doing over two millions dollars worth of business a year. So rapidly did the bank grow under the shrewd guidance of the president. Mr. Freeman, and Mr. Frank Bonebrake, they were forced to move to larger and more spacious quarters. And it was thus these gentlemen that the New England building, one of the finest west of the Mississippi was erected at the corner of 5th and Kansas avenue, that they might have ample and suitable room for the large and growing business. The bank has now almost reached the four million mark in its business. Mr. Jones has worked right along all these years studying what was best not only for the bank, but its customers. He is a splendid young man, very unassuming, affable and easily approached. He is polite and always carries a pleasing smile, although positive and painstaking and can read a person through at a glance. Mr. Jones is thoroughly acquainted with the financial condition of the country and is a close observer of general business as affects the money market. His judgment on stocks and bonds and commercial paper is highly valued by the customers of his bank. Although a young bachelor, he is yet contented to remain under the parental roof with his mother and sister, where he has erected a fine home at 227 Woodlawn avenue, Portwin Place. We predict a great future for Mr Jones in the financial world in view of the fact that he has created a demand for his services. Nothing beats honesty, sobriety and loyalty. His sister, who resides at his home with Mr Jones and his mother, is an instructor at Washburn College and is said to be one of the best in the institution. mett's mind is clear and keen. She follows daily the table dispatches telling of the progress of the Irish situation When the correspondent reached Mrs. Vermett's home, a celebration in honor of Irish independence was being held. Mrs. Vermett's sons, Frank, 78, and Richard, 76, were present, together with a score of grandchildren. The old patriot herself was sented at a table littered with newspapers "Ireland free!" she murmured over and over, clutching the paper to her breasts, "I've lived longer than most people—just because I've been asking God to spare me till I could see the day of peace in Cork and the blessed land of green. "Just today I was a thinking of the tragic days when I was a girl—when soldiers were a shooting down my kinsmen and neighbors just because they wanted to be free. "Sure, there's much credit due the Sinn Fein. They did right in accepting dominion rule "For, mark my word, that'll be the stepping stone. Real independence isn't far off now and they'll get it without bloodshed. "My wait of 100 years has taught me one thing—patience! "Tell the people God has answered this old woman's prayers and, sure, he'll do the same for them." —By Roy Gibbons. Col. Young Killed in far off Liberia. Word was received at the War department in Washington last week, of the death of Colonel Charles Young, ranking race officer of the United States army, who was killed while putting down a resurrection, in Liberia, where he has been stationed as military attache for some months. A subordinate officer under the Colonel was wounded in the disturbance, but is reported recovering. Colonel Young was the guest of our race in this city three years ago when Kansas hold its great celebration in this city in honor of the returned boys of the World War. He was a graduate of the United States Military Academy at West Point. His wife is residing in Paris and his children are in Belgium attending school. His remains were buried in Liberia, where he had given the best years of his life in military work. MASONS MAKE PROGRESS The Masonic lodges and their auxiliares of Topeka are making great strides in a financial and business way. They now own the large five story building at 404 Kansas avenue. The following lodges are stock holders: Bulld Lodge, No 2, 182 shares; Mt. Morlah lodge, No 5, 302 shares; Kaw Bailey, No 18, 131 shares; Rebekah chapter, No 8, 125 shares; Myra Chapter, No 3, 33 shares; Beth any Chapter, No 7, 50 shares; Corene Commandry, No 3, 20 shares. Lincoln Chapter, No 2, 2 shares; Kaw Valley Consistory, 7 shares; Oasis Temple, No 29, 5 shares; in individual shares, 911, making a total of 1814 shares valued at $0700 00 The citizens of the city as well as the Mason of both races should be proud of the great showing being made by this board of Directors, composed of young, progressive business men who have remarked and refurbished and equipped the Mason's lodge room, which is one of the finest in the West. New Art glass windows, the emblem and designs of the order emblazoned therein. New columns and designs and the lodge room mechanically arranged for the electric lighting and everything no arranged to represent King Solomon's Temple. Here all meet using the hall most every night in the week. The stock holders met in their annual meeting in the hall on Thursday Jan. 12th, 1922, at which time the Board of Directors were present and made their annual report. The following men compose the board U. A. Graham, president; B F. Payne, vice president; H G Dandridge, secretary; M C Peak, treasure; A. L. McGill, auditor, Wm Bradshaw, auditor President Graham called the meeting to order Secretary Harry Dandridge read the minutes which were approved. The annual report of the directors was placed in the hand of the stockholders. After a few questions and a short discussion, a resolution was offered by Grand Master H. I. Mouroe, to allow the Trustees the privilege of buying the other property or to make any necessary improvement they might see fit. This met the unanimous approval of the stockholders. The next step was the election of directors, which was offil.eeee zzifififififors and a motion was offered to relect the entire list on one ballot. Mr. M. C. Peak, the treasurer declared, stating that it was impossible for him to serve. Mr. W. D. Cooper was substituted for Mr. Peak and the motion and election was unanimous. A vote of thanks was tendered the Board for the splendid work which they had accomplished during the first year of their office and for the excellent business methods inaugurated in the management of affairs.

The good women in the city are doing excellent work in this line. The Mexican government has extended the American Negro a special invitation to settle in that country. Mr. Uack Bailey was buried here last Sunday by the K. of P. lodge. Many of his old friends followed the body to its last resting place. A big convention was held in Okmulgee recently to select commissions Mexico City and make arrangements for the settlement of a Negro colony in that country. Like Nehemiah, how can I be happy when my people are being murdered, my women raped, my brothers burred at the stake and the walls of my protection are burned down We just really find out our real status in this country. The intent of the American whites. The future happiness of our children. The security of our firesides and the general place of the black man in the government. To fall, is criminal. Nobody is trying to keep the Negroes in the dark about his real condition, but the Negro ministry. As a rule he travels by his stomach. They are forcing Negroes to join mobs to kill other Negroes. This is done to make it appear that the Negroes believe in mob law. This occurred in Okla. City.

Forward your application now! --- We can not longer deceive ourselves as to the intent of the American white man pertaining to our future welfare in this American nation Thefalling down of Congress on the invetigation of the Ku Klux Klan and the seeming defeat of the Anti-Lynching bill, all lend fear to our future safety. None but a fool and a degenerate will continue preaching hope to the American Negro under these conditions. If the Dyer bill falls to pass Congress, it is then high time for the American Negro to begin to seek another country. The near whites in the A.M.E. church have raised objection to the word African. They claim they are not African and that the word should be changed or eliminated. We hope the U. B. F's, will get their affairs in such shape that so many of its members wont need to complain about the failure of being paid. There is a general dissatisfaction in some localities, we are informed. Our mid-winter graduates have opened a sewing school in the library. Let us encourage them by having them make our shirts, aprons, dresses and all needles work possible. Mock Congress Brown's A.M.E. Chapel FRIDAY EVE., FEB. 3rd, 1922 The American government is drifting rapidly towards Anarchism as fast as the time rolls. There will be several hundred thousand Negroes move into Mexico the next few months. The passport has been discontinued and will take effect the first of January. The American Negro is a trailer, chained to the denominational truck of the American white man. When the truck goes over the trailer will follow. The marriage of Mrs. H. C. Simington to Prince J. E. Byayechetial, of Abyssinia, a few nights ago came as a complete surprise to her many friends. The Prince is a refined scholar, a Christian and a man of high attainments. We all join in extending to this couple congratulations. Hon. J. J. Bruce made a flying trip to Idaho on legal business a few days ago Some fool is always bucking the records in the face of all the increase in lynching, mobbing, raping, peonage and the general outrages committed on the Negro. Some fool is always bawling about the hope of the American Negro. Dr Waterford and his family will very shortly move to Chicago. We regret to lose the Doctor and his good wife. He is one of the most constructive men in the community. The Big Bee Manufacturing company has opened a big plant at 508 South Second street. They will manufacture medicines, shams, perfumes, extracts and various powders. How do we know that the white man has the proper idea of civilization? We have accepted everything he has said and donee without protest. A poor civilization that puts its approval on mob violence. Well, we will be treated to "who is who" in Muskogee. The plan is to give the cuts of the various homes businesses and the things worth while regarding our men women of this city. It will be arranged to have a serial write up of our people of Muskogee. "ON TO MEXICO" is the pass word. When you hear a preacher telling the race to stay here, he has in mind his salary. To leave here means to take from him his easy pickings. The ministers are helping the whites to keep the race down in Georgia Louisiana, Mississippi and other southern hell holes. The life term sentences given the whites and Negroes for the lynching of Brooks will go a long way toward stiffening the moral backbones of the other states.

Hawkins, principal of the public school of Fort Scott, was assaulted in the Oriental hotel here on Friday morning by a white clerk who objected to the basket ball mentor principal and his team of school boys were standing inside the hotel waiting for a train to take them to Fort Scott. As the hotel is the headquarters of the bus line, they decided to stand inside out of the cold. About five minutes before the bus arrived, the clerk walked over to Prof. Hawkins and his boys and told them they would have to get out of the hotel, o which remark, he replied that he would. Urged by the remark of a white man standing by, the clerk became furious and rushed up to the bunch and said, "you damn niggers get out of here." As they starred toward the door, the clerk grabbed Hawkins hand bag and attempted to throw it out the door. As Hawkins took it away from him he was struck by the infuriated peekerwood Hawkins then proceeded to use his fists upon the face of the white, treating him rather toughly. He was arrested and charged with disturbing the peace and assault and battery. His attorney advised him over the phone to say nothing and stand trial. Chas D. Clem and C N Williams went his bond. The date of the trial was not set. THE TOPEKA PLAINDEALER—The Iome Paper of the Race in Kansas. —LADIES A Steel Pressing Combs, Walker Medium Heavy Weight, Brass Inches Wide.....
