THE TOPEKA PLAINDEALER Sunday Afternoon Murder Attributed to Immoral Conditions on Washington St. Shame, Shame; Much Murder on Washington St. Respectable Colored Families and Ministers Should Rise Up and Put Down Vice. Filthy Overralls and Unclean People Should Be Kept Off Washington Street on Sundays. --- State Historical Society Newspaper Section TWENTY-FOURTH YEAR Sunday Afternoon Attributed to Ditions on Shame, Shame; Much Mu Respectable Colored Fam Rise Up and Put Down Unclean People Should Street on Sundays. It is a shimme and a disgrace for the grown up Colored people on Washington street and vicinity where two paid police o cers and ministers of the Gospel reside, to allow so much rowdism to go on Saturday nights and Sundays, where crowds of young tough rowdies gather, drink and gamble and use loud and bolsterous language to the disgrace of the women and girls who have to pass by and hear. Mothers, daughters and wives are complaining. A prominent lady who resides over there says that she is afraid to come out of her house on Saturday nights. There have been two young men that have recently been killed from that section of the city on account of these rowdies. Ray Logan was killed by Vermont Evans last Sunday about 5:30. The trouble began on Washington street over some money. It is said that both were drinking. Logan seemed to be under the influence of the "rattlesnake medicine" more than Evans who used the razor and alashd his throat. He died a short while after the tragedy. Logan lived with his parents who are hard working industrious people. President Harding is For Dyer Bill President Harding is For Dyer Bill But Expresses Opinion That Ship Sueddiy and Tariff Should Come First. August 6, 1922 Hon. Warren G. Harding, White House, Washington, D. C. Dear Mr. President, We are one of the few editors of the Colored papers who pledged that if you were elected president of these United States you would strive to be the President of all the people and that you would attempt to carry out he pledges of the Republican Platform at Chicago in 1920 of which you went before the people and stood four squares. The Colored people and all true Republicans and Democrats wint the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill passed. The platform declares for such legislation and know it your Christian duty to insist that the Senate pass the same. They are lynching and burning Colored people in the South for the least provocation and nothing is said or done. Such outrages are a national calamity and the Governments at Washington should suppress it. We think the human rights are just as sacred as those who ignore and violate the rules of orders of the Government and much valuable time is taken up by the President to satisfy their whims over the difference of a few cents. And yet a few millions of Colored people are standing with bowed heads praying that you might give them relief by keeping the faith and pledge of the Party. As editor we stood and declared to the world that you were the second Abraham Lincoln and we still believe you are but my people keep after me about my word. So now, Mr. President, please dont let my word fall. We are not looking for any political preferment, no favors, just justice and equality at the law for my race. If you will push the Senate on the passage of the Dyer Bill as you hate done on several other issues, relief will come. The time is now at hand for everyone to be compelled to abide by the law. Successionists and their sympathizers should have no part in our Civil Government. They rebelled in 1861 and they are still rebelling and are being adhered to. You have our best wishes and prayers. We were for you in the beginning and will stay to the end, feeling you have set the time to act. Editor, The Topeka Plaindealer, and President, Kansas Defense Society. P. S.: We are asking Senator Capper to kindly hand this request to you. . August 6, 1922 Dear Senator, Will you kindly see that this lottery reaches President Harding? All Kansas are with you and your good work in Washington. We hope you will encourage the President to encourage 1 9 2 So are Eiapa' parents. We are told that moonshine is sold in great quantities over there. in great quantities over there. Another shameful and disgraceful thing is the spectacle of grown up middle aged men who congregate and pitch horse shoes on Sundays with these boys. Old men with their overalls and work day clothes on; don't go to church and no other respectable gathering. They are worse than heathens in Africa and have the nerve and gaud to parade up and down on Washington street on Sundays in such condition while their wives and daughters are at church and who pass them on the street and hang their heads in shame. You will not find that in a white community, it makes no difference how low they may be; they will respect their women and children, and compel everybody else to do the same. Why can't the young Colored bullies on Washington street and vicinity do the same. The good people should see the mayor, sheffiff and the U. S. Prohibition officer and demand that law and order prevail in that community, such actions as these an the winking of the law is causing the organization of the Ku Klux Klan.-Nick Chiles. the Senate to pass the Dyer Anti- Lynch Bill. The Party pledged some kind of measure on this question, now let us keep our word. You will please read my letter to the President and let us have your approval or disapproval along with your criticism. Washington, D.C. August 8, 1922 I have your letter of August 5. I have today presented it to the Presiago and urged him to press the antient. I had a talk with him not long lynching bill. He is in entire sympathy with the measure but I think he has a feeling that the griff and ship subsidy bill should have consideration ahead of all other measures.

Wichita, Kansas, Aug. 11.—Prince Hall Grand Order Eastern Star held their Grand session here this week. Everything went off line except the contest for Grand Matron.

Mrs. Gertrude Clark of Lawrence, Kans. had served her time and canvassed for the third term. Why she did so is a mystery to the progressive wing of the order.

I have been busy trying to make Oklahoma fit for decent colored men and women to live in by getting the proper man in the governor's chair, eror's chair. Political death to the demagogue who attempts to ride into office of the prostrated form of the Negro. We defeated two candidates who made their campaign on the Negro. The welfare of the Negro is above any political party. Christianity has tako precedent over any pegarized denoitation. Now comes the news that the pro or California don't want the National Baptist Convention. California is right, we had it here special v. ago and was made sorry. Chicago w. made sign as it left a hasp. Little Willie (Rev. Arlington Wilson) was in the city a few days ago looking over his diapose and taking an oath on its here. In the event of Dr. Morris, Wilson is the Logical. For me proudly it is moral force and the bit of real luck out with just enough patience to gain dignity to this high position. The Negroes should not worry about ascending the imaginary morals of the white man, he is coming down to the level of the Negro and in many instances he is sinking below. Prof. J. R. Johnson and Prof John Hogan fought hard for the nomination of Mr. Wilson but the gods were against their man. Cheer up boys, the worst has not come. ..The 3 K's have tried to extend the tentacles into Europe but the crafty Europeans were too diplomatic to accept the burning cross. 'Hundreds of Negroes are being murdered daily in parts of the south, the news being suppressed Not only that but many of Negroes of the south are being re-enslaved. Sounds strange—but true. Dorn at Waco, my old home they have ordered W. S. Willis, the Super Chancellor of the state of Texas A. S. Jackson, Commissioner of Education of the A. M. B. Church to go their automobiles. Waco is trying to get the blue rider from Georgetown in the role of butchery. Observe what we see in the White delegation gave lie to the story that Negroes are not waged in Mexico "We invite for the best of your time to become social and industrially later woven, into our country." Some more social equality stuff we hear so much about.

The American Negro is not removed enough form the baneful influence of slavery. He is a victim of an ignorant Negro ministry which too often finds it to its advantage, to pose with hat in hand. Politics in the science of government and none but those who have the brain, bravery, and self determination to win. The goody-good Negro has no place in the game. Too much is at stake. The cause is too sacred, the purpose too eminent. It carries within its womb the emancipation of a great race. Let us play the game like heroes of old. The strike and its threatening evils have kept many needy men and women from attending these windy church meetings. This arguments by the awakening of the Negro and the scarcity of means—Goody. The C. M. E. Church is having a district conference this week. The A. M. E. will have theirs next week at Boynton. The M. E. had theirs last week at Walootka. The Baptists are to have several in the fall. The attendance to all have been small. The business men of Muskogee made a trip into the country last week for the purpose of simulating trade and to have an outing. Well, here comes ol man winter, clad in clothes of snow and icicles, who is able to meet him? Where our votes are few in any given community we must learn to pool them. This is the only way to get results. The Northeastern Teachers Association at Boley this fall is the only one fit to attend. After all it seems that the members of the U. B. F.'s are going to elect them a Grand Master who is able to save the dying institution. Not only that but it is hoped that these many claims which have piled up for the last few years will be paid. The Odd Fellows are still growing by leaps and bounds. The K. of P.'s made and excellent showing at the grand session. The Masone are ever successful. The Negroes are being forced off their farms at night by mobs who in return take possession and no one renders aid. The souther courts are a farce and a parody on justice. The poor white trash throughout the south is getting farms by placing notices on the gate of Negroes. On these notices are coffins, lunch trees, pyres, etc. Let your bucket down where you are. The coming campaign this fall is to be the hottest in the history of the state. The democrats are claiming Walton who was nominated on a farmer-laborer ticket Being divested of an armor bearer they are forced to swallow and accept the candidate of the common herd The proud knee of democracy is forced to bend.
