YOUNG LIFE OF GREAT NEGRO BOLDIER REVIEWED BY COL. O. DUNGAN (A. N. P. Chicago, Ill., Jan. 28.—"Col. Chan, Young represented the hope of the Negro soldier," thus spoke Colonel Otis B. Duncan, of the 8th Illinois Regiment, in an exclusive Chicago interview for the Associated Negro Press. Colonel Duncan is a hero of the great World war, and is now the ranking military official of the race in the United States Army. Col. Duncan like Colored Americana thrust out the country, was deeply moved by the death of Colonel Young. The Associated Negro Press proposes memorial services throuout the entire United States, on a date to be announced later, at which time appropriate exercises will be held in honor of the famous soldier, and a rededication of the race to the principles of liberty and justice which Col. Young held so sacred. Elgth Regiment Joins Plan. ... Speaking in behalf of the Elgth regiment of Illinois, Col. Duncan the commanding officer, heartily approves of the idea of the memorial services for Colonel Young. "We will have a great military parade in Chicago, in which the entire regiment, headed by the full regimental band, will turn out. "We will invite every former soldier in the city to take part in the parade, and especially the men of the regular army, all of whom knew Col. Young and loved him" declared the Colonel. Continuing he said: "Such an event as proposed will be an inspiration to the entire race and will once more impress the entire people of the country with the patriotic devotion of the colored Americans. "Recently in Washington, there was great and deserving homage paid to the 'unkrown soldier.' We now have an opportunity to honor a known soldier, one whose life was given in the cause of his country. In New York the fifteenth Regiment is discussing plans to honor Col Young in an appropriate manner. Full details have not been learned concerning the disposal of the body, but it is likely that it will be brought to the United States at an early date. While Colonel Young spent his early life in Zanesville, Ohio, where his father is buried, in late years he lived in Wilberforce, where his mother now lives in a most beautiful home providide by the Colonel. Should it be decided to bury Colonel Young in Arlington Cemetery, citizens of Washington plan to make it one of the most notable military funerals ever held in the Capitol. President Harding, himself an Ohioan, and who knew Colonel Young personally, would be invited to attend the service. A Picturesque Figure. The passing of a picturesque and interesting figure in American Army life was recorded in a cablegram to the State Department from Monrovia, Liberia, which reported the death of Colonel Chas Young formerly of the Truth United States Calvary, who commanded a squadron in General J. Pershing's punitive expedition into Mexico against Villa, and the only member of the Negro race to reach the rank of Colonel in the regular army of the United States. How he met his death has not been reported to the American government While Colonel Young, then a Major was in command of a squadron of the famous Tenth Calvary, he and his squadron in 1916 rode to the relief of Major Tompkins, when the latter and his men were ambushed near Parral in an affair that nearly brought the American and Mexican governments to the verge of hostilities. Beheaded commanding troops in Mexico, Colonel Young served in the field with calvary units as a time officer in the far West and on two tours of service in the Philippines. A native of Kentucky where he was born in 1864. Young graduated with the class of 1880 at West Point and resumed his majority in 1912. He was retired for physical disability early in the World War, with the rank of Colonel. READ THIS PLAINMAILER-YOUR BOOK PAPER. BUY NOW. ```markdown ``` PRICE $1.50 PER YEAR CAPT. WILLIAM R. BAKER, FORMERLY ASSISTANT SUPERINTENDENT OF INSURANCE ANNOUNCES AS A REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE FOR SUPERINTENDENT OF INSURANCE. The Republican party of Kansas, which voices the sentiment of the people of the State, will be called on next August to nominate a candidate for State Superintendent of Insurance. Mr. Travis, the present incumbent is the first man in the histori of Kansas, to enforce and compel the insurance companies to come to time, as well as pay to the policy-holders their just claims after collecting thousands of dollars premiums. Other superintendents have stood silently by with closed eyes and deafened ears and allowed this to go on, giving little or no need to the complaints filed. Mr. Travis has made them dig up the full amounts when apprised of the complaints. Next January, he goes out of office and it is the desire of the tax-payers that his mantel be cast upon the shoulders of some man who will have the ability and courage to carry out the policy of Mr. Travis. Now comes Captain William R. Baker, a young, brilliant soldier, lawyer and business man, who served two years in the Insurance department as first assistant to Mr. Travis at which time he availed himself of the opportunity of learning the business of that office and assisted in rendering several decisions of much importance. His platform will be a square deal to the policy holders, as well as the insurance companies who do business in the state. He believes the companies should return for their investment made, and that the people should have cheaper rates of insurance Mr Baker was born in Wyandotte county, twenty eight years ago, a graduate of the State University, was admitted to the bar to practice law in the courts of Kansas in 1915. For sometime he practiced his profession and handled insurance and collections in Kansas City, when the war was declared on Germany. At this time he sacrificed his business and answered the call of Uncle Sam by volunteering his services early in 1917. He did not wait to be drafted as many young men did. He served with the 42nd Rainbow division, the first Kansas organization to go overseas. For 18 months this division was in the conflict and in most of the campaigns. They saw active service at Chuteau Thierry, St Mihiel, Argonne Forest and in the arms of occupation. In May 1919, he was mustered out with honors and was appointed Assistant Superintendent in June 1919 and after two years of splendid service to that department, resigned to assume the management of the Liberty Life Insurance Company. This company is the owner of the office block and is one of the largest companies in the west. Mr Baker is the only candidate who is a member of the American Legion, who has entered the field for a state office at the time of this writing. Capt. Baker is an upright, Christian gentleman, fearless, honest, absolutely courageous and one whom the citizens of the State can depend upon to be faithful in the performance of the duties of this office as he was in the performance of his duties with the United States army in France.

THE BOUTHWESTERN BELL TELEPHONE COMPANY We wish to call our readers attention to the proposition offered by the Southwestern Bell Telephone which we stamp as an A No 1, Silmon pure stock proposition and gilt-edge. The company now has on the market blocks of shares for the sum of $100 per share, take all you can reasonably pay for at the rate of $5.00 per month until paid. The company guarantees the holder Seven per cent annual dividend, no wait, no worry about it, you get your money as soon as the year is up. This stock can be used to most any advantage, you can borrow on it, sell it, hypothecate it or you can live on the dividends by investing in larger amounts. This is an excellent opportunity for the small investor, an ideal way to start a boy or girl into creating a saving account. The investment is gilt edge and will be as long as there is a Bell phone used in this country. To the users of the phone system, this is an excellent way to get some of their money back by being a preferred stock holder in the company We would be pleased to see the members of our race take hold of this investment proposition and by so doing, may create and open up new avenues for our young men and women of the race. By putting our money in such corporations, we can then be in a position to make some demands upon the company. By taking this step we will be in a better position to demand and receive attention. This is the first time in history where the Coloreal people have been solicited to buy stock in a high-class, gilt-edge institution as the Southwestern Phone company. Mr. Benjamin Baer, the manager of this department with his headquarters in the Central National Bank building, is a young man who has grown up in Topeka and is anxious to give everyone an opportunity to share in the fortunes of this well-known company. The management of the Company made no mistake in securing the services of Mr. Baer or Mr. Kercher, who work day and night in the interests of their company. They are getting results too. For the race to reach its right place in the financial world, it must be quick to take advantage of such opportunities as are here offered by the Southwestern Telephone company. INFORMATION REGARDING COL YOUNG'S MILITARY CAREER Atchison, Kansas. Jan, 31, 1922. Topeka Plaindealer, Bison: I wish to correct the mistake made about Colonel Chus. Young. In, the beginning of his soldier life he soldier B Troop of the 9th Calvary in 1889, in which he served as a Second Lieutenant until 1892, when he was made a First Lt. of the 7th Calvary, and after six months he transferred to the 9th, when he re- turned he went to Wilberforce, Ohio, as instructor, remaining there until 1895, then he was made Perfect Colonel, of the Seventh Calvary when we went to Cuba, during the Spanish-American War. After the close of the war, he was stationed at Fort Hunchucha until 1900, then we went from there to the Philippine Islands. He got his promotion as second Captain at San Francisco, before leaving for the Philippines, where he served as the captain of our troop. Returning to the United States, he was stationed at Fort Presidio, in California. His squadron was removed from there to Jefferson Barracks. In 1907, he returned to the Philippines, where the regiment served at Fort McKinley. In 1900 we returned to the United States. From my knowledge of Captain Young, whom I served with at these various places, he was a perfect soldier, a gentleman. Not only a Captain but a father to his men. A good provider.

At the probate court today it was stated that the money for paying the blind pension claims likely will be available in the latter, part of February or in March. The first tax ever levied for pensions for the blind in Missouri was levied by the state last years and was made a part of the regular taxes in the 1921 collections. The rate as fixed by the state is 2 cents on the $100 valuation. The law providing for pensioning the blind was established by referendum vote of the people. The first payment will be made when the state receives the collections of 1921. This turn in will not be made for some weeks yet, as the recent collections have not in the main been abstracted and apportioned. The blind pension is a level rate of $25 a month for each pensioner, payable quarterly. In Greene county 98 applications have been certified by Judge Gideon and accepted by the state authorities.
