Correspondence Between Nick Chiles and Attorney General of Missouri Reveals Fact That Local Citizens May Act When Authorities Fail. Some weeks ago Charles E. Myers a Colored ex-soldier was killed in Fayette, Mo., by an officer of the law. It was said by some of the influential citizens that the killing was murder in cold blood. An Attorney was made to have the officer brought to justice, and upon the refusal of the local authorities The Plaindealer was apperlod. The following correspondence between the Plaindealer and the Attorney General of Missouri is self explanatory: Attorney General Jefferson City, Mo. Dear Sir: I have been asked by some of our readers who reside in Missouri for an opinion concerning the murder of Charles E. Myers, who was killed by a police officer (Jack Wills), August, 13th, 1922. The citizens said this was a deliberate murder and outrageous, this being the second Colored man killed by this officer. The County Attorney of Fayette Mo., refused to issue a warrant for the arrest of this officer. We informed our correspondent that it was within the power of the Attorney General of Missouri to issue such a warrant out in case the County Attorney fails to do sworn duty. This community seems to be dominated by a certain class of white people who do not believe that a Colored man should have an equal right at law or justice when it comes to the white race. We would like to know if you would use your good office in investigating this matter and have this officer arrested. The honest, unright conscious Colored people believe in fair play. We ask this in the name of "Fair Play" and "Justice" for Colored people's of that county and state. Our or ganzatter, the Kansas Defense Society, makes it it's indispensable duty to see to it that the attention of the Public officers at large be called to all such outrages in such a commun- MANY INTERESTING EVENTS ON Y, M, G, A. PROGRAM That the Kansas Avenue Y. M. C. A is the popular meeting place for the younger people of the town is evident when one visits its club rooms and sees the large groups of young men in attendance. Last week the programs given by each organization were well attended. The Forum had an unusually interesting program furnished by the Young People's Uplift Club of the Calvin Baptist church. The arrangements for the Hallow Elen social were completed, and it premises to be one of the best entertainments of the season. The party will be given next Tuesday evening. Games and Music will be the chief features. Ginger cake and spice cider will be served by the ladies. The Hi-Y club and the Empoyed Boys' Brotherhood are assisting in the entertainment. Everyone is asked to come masked, as the "ghost will walk." The Y. M. C. A. Football team will be seen in action against the soldiers from Fort Riley this Saturday at League Park. A large crowd is expected to come out and root for the home team. The faculty and students of the Industrial School for Boys have been more than willing to perform service for the Y. M. C. A. The quartette under direction of their instructress came a few Sundays ago and were the chief attraction on the Forum's program. W. F. TROUTMAN FOR SHERIER OF MONTGOMERY COUNTY The voters of Montgomery County will not have done their whole duty if they fail on election day to give Sheriff W. F. Troutman their vote and support. He is one of the most fearless Sheriffs in Kansas. He has saved the taxpayers millions of dollars by upholding the law preventing bloody plots and destroying of property. The taxpayers, the church people and all law abiding citizens irrespective of parties should vote for him. If you fail to vote for W. F. Troutman for Sheriff of Montgomery County you have failed to uphold the laws of your land. Every voter of Montgomery County should put an (x) behind Mr. Troutman's name on election day. MIVISTERS AND DEACONS ALLIANCE TO MEET SUNDAY The Ministers and Deacons Alliance of the Baptist churches will hold a special meeting this Sunday at the Third Baptist church. Rev. S. J. Williams, pastor of Shilloh Baptist church, will deliver a doctrinal sermon at S o'clock. The public is invited. PINKSTON CRITICALLY ILL Officer Kirk Pinkston of the Police department is critically ill at Christ Hospital. Mr. Pinkston is one of the best officers the city has ever had. He has been on the force twenty years. We hope for him a speedy recovery. ty where people have but little rights that the white man respects. Thank ing you for advanced favors, I remain Yours truly, Nick Chiles Editor Topeka Plaindealer and Pres. Kansas Defense Society Mr. Nick Chiles, Editor, Topeka Plaindealer, Topeka, Kansas. Dear Sirt: Under Missouri laws the Attorney-General does not share the powers of the prosecuting attorney. Your letter of yesterday says that you advise certain citizens of Missouri that the Attorney-General could issue a warrant in case the county attorney fail to do so. That is an error. It would require express direction by the Governor before any such power would be in the Attorney-General's hands. On the contrary, the Missouri law provides abundant means for local proceedings which gives all citizens the right to take care of their interest. Any citizen can swear a warrant upon which an information will be filed. Any citizen may also employ a special prosecutor. Any citizen may also file an affidavit charging a prosecuting attorney with neglect of duty and thereby secure a jury trial as to removal of the officer. Attorney General Complaints Against Prosecuting Attorneys: The Attorney General of Missouri does not share power with the Prosecuting attorneys in the handling of prosecutions in their jurisdiction. Complaints against prosecuting attorneys for failure to prosecute can be made locally under Section 9176 et seq. R. S. 1919. The statutes provide ample means for employment of local special prosecutors by those interested where the prosecuting attorney has failed or refuses to act. Conference Shows Remarkable Growth The wonder work of the past year in the Southwest Missouri Conference of the A. M. H. Church was almost lost in the public concern over "who is going to be the pastor of Allen?" The question hangs fine until Sunday night near midnight, and then the thousands inside and outside Ebenezer went home with it still transacted. The usual conference program of educational, missionary, and women's meetings were added to the business sessions, all of them drawing full attendance, and as usual the closing Sunday crowded the intert and attendance. The appointments for the year are: P. B. Kunsan City District, J. B Isaance; Allen Chapel; Ebenezer, W. T. O-borne; Bethel, B. G. Dawson; Word, G. E. Horsey; St. Luke, J. C Bell; St. John, W. D Wilkins; Independence, W. G. Hill; Jr; Willis Chapel, John Alexander; Grant Memorial Chapel, G. J. Skinner; Pain; St. Paul, C. A. Long; Pleasant Hill, Wm. Hawkins; Odessa, T. A. Murphy; Turner Mission, Wm. Williams; Gilbert Memorial, T. A. McPike. Lexington District, Wm. Alexander, P. E.; Lexington, G. W. Cross; Sedalin, F. D. Wells; Springfield 1st Church, F. F. Moton; Springfield 2nd Church, J. A. Chandley; Higginsville, A. J. Sanders. Dollar money $4491.25; total for all purposes, $5922.88. By this arrangement Rev. J. B. Isaacs who has ocean a storm center at Allen Chapel, is made presiding elder, displacing Rev. Payne. The identity of his successor is a subject of much speculation. Rev. W. H. Peck of St. Louis, a former pastor is much talked of. OUT OF TOWN TEACHERS INVADE THE CITY The Kansas teachers came to town last Thursday, Friday and Saturday. They were members of the Kansas State Teachers Association, an organization of all the teachers of the state, both white and colored. The three dances were spent in exchanging ideas, listening to experts in their various subjects, and attending social events given in their honor. The colored teachers were well represented and took active part in all the sessions. They were also entertained by members of their group Topeka always has a hearty welcome extended to professional men and women from other points. A few candidates will be baptized at Shiloh Baptist church Sunday morning following the regular service. TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING. OCTOBER 27, 1922. Colored People Should Support Y. W. Morgan The Republican voters of Kansas and especially the Colored voters should go to the polls and vote for W. Y. Morgan for Governor. He is a Christian gentleman who will give everybody a square deal. We know he is honest and fair enough to consider the Colored voter and citizen to CL 477 he entitled to recognition and whatever party he belongs to should be allowed to sit up to the pie counter. He knows the Colored Republicans have never been treated fairly when it came to giving out positions. The Colored people have faith in him and will vote for him knowing and feeling that ;;;? - )* - )* 7890$.. that he will give them just recognition. Western College Preparing for Winter The people on the Hall are still smiling. The new boiler which the New I'm pledged Mrs. Richardson is being installed. New mattresses have arrived from Mrs. Luckey and Mrs. Abbington, given by their Sunday School and Churches; and three down silver town spouses from the Francis Street Baptist Church of St. Joseph, Missouri President and Mrs. Richardson assured students and teachers that a new day was dawning for Western College. The Pastors of Churches and the people generally are enthusiastic in their support of the work. Western College is getting into things. The three delegates in the "Y" conference are Messrs. Scott, Garnett and Hanks gave interesting reports of the conference which was held at the Pasco Y. M. C. A. last week. Already the football squad the first Western has had for years is rounding into shape. New students are enrolling daily.

We are reproducing the article in full. We might add, however, that both of these gentlemen are generously endowed with this world's goods. Two of the most splendid records for long faithful and honest service in big Topeka institutions are held by two Colored men, both of whom possess a reputation for integrity and useful citizenship. They are Robert Barton and John Edmonds. Thirty years as head Jan'tor and building custodian of one of the largest banks and trust companies, in the state is enough to prove a man's reputation for integrity and honesty. This is the record of Robert "Bob" Barton, who has been at the Central National bank building thirty years. Barton was born in Tennessee in 1654 and has lived in Kansas 35 years. He is an elder of St. John's A. M. F. church, Seventh Street and Topkiss avenue. He also is considered an excellent preacher. He has been appointed elder sixteen times in succession. He is also considered one of the most able men in local political circles and takes a great interest in every campaign. He was first employed at the Central National Bank building under the late P. I. Bonebrake. He has one son, Elva Barton employed in the Santa Fe general office building. John Edmonds, for thirty-nine years shipping clerk at the state printing plant, has worn out several mail cards during his long period of service. "This is not the cart I started with." said John by way of emphasizing his length of time on the job. He hasnt any gray hairs yet and doesn't look a day over 45 years old. "I have worked under twelve state printers," he said. They are T. D. Thacher, C. C. Baker, E. H. Snow, John Parks, J. K. Hudson, W. Y Morgan, George A. Clark, T. A. McNeil, W., Austin, W. R. Smith, Imrl Zamwalt and B. P. Walker, "Thacher, Balker, Clark, all three were good men," Edmonds asserted, "but three men have looked to me to be a high and big enough men for env jeb. They are McNeal, Morgan and Walker. They always have been ready to help the under man, and also they have been fine men in charge of The late printune. Have had lots of life and downs more downs than ups and ought to know something about the way things go over here. I think Governor Allen used good judgement when he told "Mr. Walker for print." "John I'd send he is going in like to see many other state printers on the job." Voters Should Give Sprcul Large Majority In the first place, my great grandfather was an active soldier in the Revolutionary War to secure the independence of this country from Great Britain and to secure equal rights and equal liberty for the people. In the second place, my own faller pent three and one-half years in the Civil War to maintain the United States government and to secure the equal liberties of the Colored race. In the third place, the Republican Party, which is principally in the North, has always been the best friend of the Colored people. The Republican Party Council at Topkaka passed a resolution endorsing the Dyer Antilynching bill and Mr. Sproul was one of that Council. He has been making strong speeches during his entire camp, advocating equal rights and equal liberties for all the people, and the Colored people everywhere especially have been enjoying this part of his speeches. There is every reason to believe, and expect Mr. Sproul, if elected to Congress, to stand up for the rights of the Colored people in every way. On the other hand, the great majority of the Democratic Party is in the South and should the Democrats ever be in the majority in Congress the South will be in Control. If Mr. Stephens were elected (but he won't be) he would have to work with the Democrats of the South who will be opposed to the Dyer Antilynching bill and who will always be unfair to the Colored race. There is no reason whatever why W. H. Sproul should not receive the hearty support and endorsement of all the Colored voters in the Third Congressional District. W. T. CLARK FOR SHERIFF RENO COUNTY The Republican party of Reno County never as yet failed to re-elect their candidate for second time when they have faithfully performed their duty. Sheriff W. T. Clark is doing his full duty and has made Reno County one of the best sheriffs in the history of the County. He is a fine officer. He enforces the law on all alike. He is kind and courteous. He has saved thousands of dollars to the taxpayers as well. He never has yet made cost on the people unless it was absolutely necessary. He should and will be re-elected. The voters of both parties will see to it. C. M. E. Conference at Newton Shows Church Has Made Much Progress --- The C. M.E. Conference held their conference at Newton, Kansas last week. Rt. Rev. N. C. Cleaves presiding Bishop of this District. This was one of the finest sessions in the history of the reports, showed the Churches in a fine healthy condition so well are they doing the conference voted another Presiding Elder district. The Bishop praised this conference as being the finest in his diocese. This pleased the Kansas and West Missouri so much that the applause was deafening. There were several visitors, Rev. J. R. Starks, Editor of Western Index of Dallas, Texas, general officer preached a fine sermon. He is a great writer and is doing much for the Church. The ministers and members love and reverence their Bishop who is a fine Christian gentleman. Rev. Glass and the members of the C. M. E. Church certainly entertained the Conference in fine shape. When it comes to entertaining public gatherings Newton can not be beat. On Sunday the services were held in the city auditorium where the Bishop preached one of his masterly sermons. The following are the appointments: Topeka District, Rev. R. P. Tyler, P. E.; Topeka Station, Lane Chapel, Rev. J. S Blaine; Eskridge and Strong City, J. H. Harge; Eldorado Station, L. A. Story; Wichita Station, H. H. Edmond; Newton Station, C. H. Glass, Hutchinson Station, J. W. Bircher, Larned Station, J. W. Goodall; Denver, Colo, Vanderhost Chapel, C. E. Chapman; Colorado Springs, J. H Republicans Reduce Tax Topeka, Oct. 24—Taxes have been reduced in the nation and in Kansas by a Republican administration, and with the help of the legislature, W. Y. Morgan, the Republican nominee for Governor, says that by adoption of a budget system, which will prevent extravagant and overlapping appropriations, and a better system of assessment, which will reach property that now pays no taxes, they can be still further reduced. At present the farmer and the merchant pay the bulk of the taxes because their property can be soon. Intangible property has been escaping invation, and Morgan wants to tax his wealth, which is in the hands of a few, and ought to bear the burdens of government, thus lightening still further the load of the farmer and the citizen of average means. In Shawnee county the total levy for state purposes was $250,685 for 1921. For 1922 it will only be $187,779. On top of this actual saving in coins and cents, which amounts to in a reduction of about 25 pct, the assessed valuation for the state has been reduced a quarter of a million, the actual figures being $3,794,170.603 for 1921 and only $1,551,812,791 for 1922. Two and a half million dollars will be the total saving to the tax payers in 1923, of which about 25 pct. is reduction in State levy, which is cut from 2.225 mills to 1.66 mills, while the remainder comes from the cut in the assessed valuation, making a total saving of more than 30 pct. in state taxes for next year. With this record of performance already accomplished, it looks like a poor time to trade an elephant for a donkey, or as Abraham Lincoln put it, "to trade horses in the middle of the stream." LYON COUNTY DEMOCRATIC TICKET Lyon County voters are not drawing the party line in local politics as they did years ago. It seems to be the one has lived the life of a good citizen is now being rewarded. Mabel Wingfield is the Democratic nominee for register of Deeds on the Democratic ticket. She is a very popular young lady, a graduate of the Lyons County High School, held position of teller and bookkeeper in the Citizens National Bank Emporia for four years now with the E. M. Ford Insurance Firm. She is a member of the business women's club. Her father, Mr. J. J. Wingfield has lived on his farm for fifty years. She asks for the support of everybody who can cast a vote on election. GEO. H. Randolph, a man who stands for greater things is a candidate for County treasurer in the Democratic ticket is one of Lyon's County' substantial business men. He owns a milk dairy of thirty-five cows. He is an Ohioan by birth. His father was an Underground Railroad man and a many a slave from the curve of the slave driver. Mr. Randolph is a man who will treat everybody right.

Kellar, Democratic Candidate for Probate Judge, owns and publishes The Lyons County Times; all his interest are in this county; a lawyer by education; a native of Tennessee; the father of four boys whom he is educating in Emporia Schools. He tries to put the interest of County and Country above personal or party interests. Never asked for political --- Jones; Pueblo Mission, To be supplied; Left in hands or the P.

The voters of Lyons County should give him great consideration. He is doing much for Emporia and Lyons County. LYONS COUNTY . REPUBLICAN TICKET Roland Bynton now serving his first term is a Lyons County lad. He was admitted to practice in 1916, answered the call of his country; wet over seas for 18 months with the Rainbow Division Ammunition Train; met his forces subdued them and came back home. The people made him county attorney wishing to do something to reinburse him for lost time. Now he is up for reduction on the Republican Ticket of which he has abiding faith. Priller: Who shall it be? Mary R. Lewis (Polly) is nominee on the Republican ticket for Register of Deeds for reelection. She is filling the office with dignity and credit to the county. She is very popular and is one of the foremost leaders and Republican workers in that County. So well has Sheriff C. S. Gibson filled the office and so well liked by everybody for the dignified and fearless manner in performing his duty, the party renominated him for his second term all the law allows. He was born at Amercleus; his father was the pioneer merchant of that town and his mother retains her home there although she is living with her son. The sheriff was postmaster there for sometime. He is a stunner Republic can but knows no party when it comes to duty. He is so busy attending to his official duties that he cannot see very many of the voters but wishes all to know how anxious he is to shake their hands and thank them for past favors. His majority will be in the hundreds. All of Wichita and Sedgwick County are for the young soldier, statesman and lawyer, W. E. (Gene) Stanley for County Attorney. He is the son of the son of the late illusorious Governor Stanley who made Kansas one of the best Governors in its history. This young stalwart did service in the late world wars. Set all of Chicago by placing thousands of soldiers in positions on their return from France, created and found jobs for them in that great city. He was also with Gen. Wood in his campaign for President. There is not another young man of his age ever accomplished so much in a short time. He is a Legion advocate; a fine lawyer; a four square citizen. His majority will be plenty. HARVEY COUNTY POLITICS Alden E. Branine I ate young man whom the Republican party and the voters of Harvey County want for County Attorney. He is a fine young lawyer; admitted to the practice in 1920: a student of Washburn College and Northwestern College of Chicago. He is associated with his father one of the first lawers in Kansas and the Firm, Branine enjoys a large practice. Alden is very popular young man with the people. He is married and enjoys the company of his wife and 14 months old sweet baby girl The Colored voters should be proud to know he is for the Dyer Anti-Lynch Bill and will do his whole duty when in office and the poorest man will get the same consideration as the richest man. Conditions cuts no figure with him, all look alike to him when it comes to carrying out the laws on the statute book.

Martin Aelmore candidate for County Attorney will be elected by a large majority. Sedgewick is working as hard as if it was life and death. By J. E. Mason, Muskogee, Okla. The Protestant Churchers are not throwing all sorts of fits about the K. K. K. I fear they have started their protest to late. If any institutions in this country have contributed to the outrageous, murder, enslavement, conspiracy, disfranchisement of the Negro, it has been this holy bunch, who now come into the public court of equity with soiled hands asking for justice. The white ministers of America by their silences, indifference and many cases indulgences and silent approval, lend to immoral and grual conditions of this country. Nothing is more disgusting, demoralizing and down right filthy than the divorce proceedings that is now going on in the District court. The malicious reports of the conduct of young wife, the extensiveness of the practice of insobriety, the make-off of a husband, who suffered all kinds of indignities rather than give his young wife up, make a new chapter in the social book of Muskogee. The suicide of the young lady a few Sundays ago, should not make any own shudder. It is far better to follow them to the cemetery than to have them living the life of a prostitute in the face of the parents. Yes, much better. Human nature is the same all over the world, the prestituting, murdering, burning, plundering, distranchisement of the Negro, have caused a general disregard for law and order through out the country. The results are white-slavery, looting banks, promiscuous killing, purchasing seats in Congress, and general throwing down all moral precepts. The Church houds over at the Old First, went to the banks and borrowed money to go to the state Baptist convention, some of them mortgaged their furniture. Most of the delegates are women, a few men went along to safe guard and protect the innocent. So you see that the long standing fight at the "Fuss Baptist Church" is having a telling effect, both financially and other wise. The convention at Clearview, commonly known as Sol Jones faction, returned to the Old guards were headed to Ardmore. Sol, has planned to meet in a few more of the "Old guards' Churches. The Old Fellows and the House Bldd of Ruth had an interesting program at the First Baptist Church here on the 17th; Grand Master, Jefferson had made this organization the best in the state. "Old Twin" Delaney is going around the country telling the less informed that the "Why-folks" says that, Budder, meaning "old Pete," has the best lodge in the state. Everybody who claims to have the rudiments of inelligents, know that the U. B. F.'s is many thousand dollars in the red. Any community that will allow old Twijn to put that stuff off on them is inceptably ignorant. The K. of P.'s pulled off a big show here a few Sundays ago, Grand Chancellor Wickham came to the city with a mack of gold and paid several claims. Hon. A. J. Temple of Checotah, was a visitor in the city on oil business. Hon. J. J. Bruce and Henry Myers made a trip to Oklahoma City Wednesday. Dr. L. M. Banks is very sick at this writing, many of his close friends are quite uneasy about his condition. Quite a bunch of leading citizens left for Mexico last Sunday night, lend by Mr. Doniren, who has spent several months in the Republic. The fever is growing hotter. Mixed schools in some of our Northern communities are working a hardship on Colored children. You just can not tolerate love and respect into a person. The spirit of race hatred is growing vicious through out the north. Colored children are forced to all kinds of humiliation and discomfort. The north is being southernized daily, the Negroes in that territory of the country take more to vanity false idea of self importance and English satisfied feeling of their position.

EDWARD EAGLESON DIES Mr. Edward Eagleson, who died few days ago at the age of 45, was the son of the late William Eagleson, who was the plorer of the Kansas colored people. He came to the state fighting for the rights of his race and died doing the same. He laid Langston, Oklahoma, and mad many a colored man prominent and placed them in position to make money. He was the pioneer colored newspaper man and crystallized much sentiment for the race which proved good at all times. He would not stand for jim crow laws, nor were there any black laws placed on the statute books in his day. Everybody feared his pen and tongue and no low or ignorant white man ever got very far on decrying the colored race in Pansas. Colored people in those days stopped in any hotel, visited any theatre, college or school and nothing was thought of it. One reason was, he was a leader and they so recognized him as such. Young Edward Eagleson was an industrious lad and so were all the children. There remains to mourn their loss four brothers and one sister: Mrs. Susie Bennett, Doctor A. R. Eagleson, Frank, James and William Eagleson. E. T. THOMPSON IS A MAN WITH A HEART Hero is one state official who is playing the part of a Christian; Mr. E. T. Thompson, State Treasurer. He is a man whose qualities should be emulated by other members of his race. He is serving his first term as State Treasurer and will be re-elected November the 7th. Each state official selects so many employees by allotment through the Executive Council. Mr. Thompson selected Mr. William Johnson as one of his, who has been an employee of the state for many years. Mr. Johnson was a strong friend and supporter of Mr. Thompson, who was also in the Treasurer's office for a long time, and a strong bond of friendship existed between them. Mr. Johnson has been on the sick list for several months and unable to do his work, consequently there have been several applications for the job Mr. Thompson, loyal to his friend, and religion, sticks to the Golden Rule and keeps his old friend on the pay roll. This has made it possible for Mr. Johnson to purchase a home. Mr. Johnson and Mr. Thompson keep the work of the state up and gives value received. Whenever Mr. Johnson was unable to do his work, Mr. Thompson would personally complete, and also attended to his personal business for him. These and many other good things are the reason why he is State Treasurer. Such men believing in the fair thing for the colored race and especially the colored end of it is what we need badly. We wish the party had more like Mr. Thompson. The wedding of Mr. Hershel Louis and Miss Minnie Robinson, took place Wednesday night Oct. 25.

No matter what has failed to grow your hair, just give THE STAR HAIR GROWER One of the accusations made against our race generally is that we are not accurate. Now here comes The Detroit Leader justifying that accusation. In the column called "Pick ups" The Tapela Plaundaler is called "Clainder." We have heard your paper called all kinds of names but never before have we heard it referred to as "Clainder." We seldom agree with the thoughts expressed in the editorials of the Chicago Whip, but we don't feel that we have the time to write out our contradictions. The Daily Sentinel (Richmond, Va.) takes the whip in hand and proceeds to give The Whip a sound lacing. The whole thing is anent the failure of the Roddy stores in Memphis some time ago. Says the Sentinel: "Yes, suppose the United States Chamber of Commerce had to finance every defunct business enterprise among the white people, how long do you think that the Chamber would last? The Business League was never conceived to finance business enterprises and that is entirely out of its line of service. Evidently The Whip is ignorant of the principles of business leagues and chambers of commerce. But even at that, Mr. Roddy is at the head of the Solvent Savings Bank with resources of over a million dollars; and if its name means any thing, why could not, if the stores were solvent, get the bank behind his stories?" After conveying the idea that the bank did not consider the stores solvent, The Sentinel goes on: "There is a deeper reason to the failure than that, and if The Chicago thin will look under the surface it will find bad management from the INSIDE; but it is unfair to try to Attorney M.

"The Chicago Whip, apropos of the failure of Bert Roddy's chain of grocery stores in Memphis, wants to know why the National Negro Business League did not go to Mr. Roddy's rescue, and comments on the commercial disaster of the failure of fifteen grocery stores in this wise: "He (Roddy) was an ardent supporter of Major Moton and the National Negro Business League, yet when the hour of need came and heavy business depression came upon his institution Major Moton and the Business League were powerless to come to his rescue. Suppose a reserve fund had been established, the Roddy stores would still be the pride of the black people." was on his own and the stores mer- and not on the shoulders of the Business League and President Moton. Give the League a breathing spell. We happen to know that Mr. Moton is the Vale, the present president, are about on the right When The New Age and The Western Dispatch combined for the declared and avowed purpose of giving Los Angeles and vicinity a better paper, most of the Race journals thrust out the country who noted the chance and improved appearance of the new combination, hauled this combination with that good fellowship which exists among members of the Fourth Estate. The California Eagle, said to be the largest Negro journal published on the Pacific coast saw fit to hand the new combination a slam.

Anderson Major Moton, Principal of Tuskegee, who is at present in Europe, primarily to address a large church convention, and incidentally to lay before Europeans facts concerning the Negro in America, is sure to arouse the anger of the younger element of the Race and especially that of the radical element by his utterances. Already The Star of Zion (Charlotte, N. C) has taken exception to some of the statements contained in his first address. That Major Moton represents the views of the white friends of industrial education, and those Colored men and women who think our only salvation lies in the humble submission to those views, there can be no doubt. But on the other hand we can safely say that he does not represent in any sense the vast majority of Colored men between the ages of 21 and 35. This is especially evident when one considers that the Star of Zion is conservative. Now comes a wall from Boston and other northern points where Negroes are supposed to be on absolute terms with the whites, moaning the fact that a large Y, M. C. A. building for Negroes has been opened in Pittsburgh Pa. It is advocating Jim crowism, they say. To our mind all such statements may be classed as pure unadulterated tommyrot. Communitio in which there are no institutions distinctly Negro, are the least progressive so far as Negroes are concerned in America. What the Negro needs most is a large number of institutions which teach and advocate race consciousness, that is, a consciousness which makes him feel superior to other races instead of feeling inferior. We believe that anything a Negro does is done better than any white man. When we are accepted on equal terms where we merit it, we say let's beggata them. Don't you think that it is time our Colored teachers, preachers and other leaders beginning to impress upon the persons whose lives they are helping to shape that our race is a great one, and without any anologies for our supposed shortcomings? When we begin to feel that way and act it, our imaginary wrongs will not be nearly so numerous. We are the only race which looks up to any other race, and it is time we are reversing this action and begin to look down on others. "The poor overworked operator" who is responsible for the tyography of the Southern Indicator (Columbia S. C.) wonders "why some of our respondents won't take time and write so we can understand it." That same thing has been puzzling us for nearly seventeen years. In the same book the editor who is probably not a minor blames the appearance of his insistence on the pressman. We are willing to bet you (and we sell them) that this maligned workman is expected to get perfect results from an antipuncted, crippled machine, and that he gets just about one half the standard wages a man in his position is supposed to receive.
