The records of the criminal court of Kansas City, Jackson Co. Mo., which are now before us, show that tdis ex-convict, D. L.

III murder. Not every man who commits a crime is at all times to be condemned. For instance, men, through a heat of passion, sometimes commit crimes, which, when in their rational mind, they would shun; they are not of the lower criminal class, as is the cool, premeditated, wilful and malicious forger. The forger selects his victim and then in a cool, deliberate manner, he proceeds to forge his victim's name, with the one object in view, to cheat and defraud an innocent man. Criminals of this class are a nuisance to the welfare of society and they are to be bunned. Any and every man in business WICHITA, KANSAS, MAY 10, 1902. should beware of any dealings with the forger, the man who will forge your name to secure your hard earned savings by a dishonest method. This ex-convict, this criminal of the lowest type, this penitentiary convict and jail-bird has come to Wichita to ply his operations. Are the people of this city, are the business men, to give aid to a Negro criminal of this type? Will they suffer him to mingle with them; this penitentiary convict, this forger and criminal. It is not from a jealous motive that we publish this ex-convict's record, but we give the people this much of the facts, and they can judge for themselves. In the accompanying cut we give a likeness of this crook and criminal known as D. L. Robinson. We are glad to say that we never knew this criminal and forger, D. L. Robinson, till he came to Wichita a few weeks ago, but we knew his father, Rev. Henry Robinson, now deceased, former, ly pastor of the 2nd Baptist Church 10th & Charlott, Kansas City, Mo, quite well. We have had many long chats with Rev. Robinson during his life-time on one occasion in a conversation, Rev. Robinson, with tears in his eyes told us about this "black sheep" of the family, this convict, this forger, this criminal, his son, D. L. Rodinson. He said "May God have mercy on him; but he has disgraced my family, he has led his poor mother to an early and untimey grave by his criminality, and his crime is enough to set me crazy. He is actually not worth the powder and lead that it would take to end his profitless life." Rev. Robinson many times has narrated to us the wreckless, criminal life of this present ex-convict; this man who is smooth with the pen and ink, this forger. When his father died in Kansas City, not long ago, why did this ex-convict and jail bird not attend? Why is it he does not try to operate in Missouri? He does not. His crimes are too well known. He prefers to come to a location where his crime is not fresh in the minds of the people. Ask this ex-convict why he does not go to Kansas City and claim an interest in the estate left by his father? Why is it he has such dread for the name, Missouri? He is disqualified from voting in Missouri, and he comes to Kansas. Will the people of Wichita stand forth and hold their city open as the dumping ground for the ex-convicts and jail-birds of Missouri? We say no, a thousand times no! For the benefit of those who do not know this criminal we publish his picture as he appeared in the Missouri Penitentiary; we also publish the true copy of the records of the penitentiary at Jefferson City Ask this ex cooviot how many jail cells he has occupied in the past seventeen years. Ask him why he left Colorado so "suddenly" and so "unexpectply; and ask him did he choose day or night fhr his "sudden" flight. Ask him how about his operations in Wichita several years ago, when a certain politician saved him from occupying a cell in the penitentiary of Kansas at Lansing; ask him what was the matter then; ask him who came to his rescue in Colorado and gave him time to "flee from the wrath of the law. When he was sent to the penitentiary in Missouri he said he was married, ask him what became of his wife. Ask him Continued on 2nd page CRnMPACKER BILL DEAD! Rights Of Race Slaughtered In House Of Its Friends. WASHINGTON. —It is a patent fact that the Negro must henceforth hew out his own salvation—educationally, politically, industrially and financially. The American Congress has no direct interest in the welfare of the race. Only individual members can expect succor or aid from our national legislature, and our real friends in either branch of Congress are few and far between. The Crumpacker bill, distined to rebuke Southern election methods by reducing Southern representation in Congress, has been sacrificed to insure the passage of the Cuban reciprocity or "sugar" bill. Overtures to this effect were made by Republican Congressmen from the North and East, where sugar is held in higher esteem than Negro votes. The Western Republicans have abandoned the hope of securing the passage of the Crumpacker bill and it is safe to assume that the resolution will be allowed a long, peaceful and uninterrupted in the committee on rules. As foreshadowed, the sudden demise of the Crumpadker bill is not unexpected. The hostile attitude of Southern Democrats and apparent apathy of many Northern Republicans toward the political interests of the Negro give but little hope for the enactment of any Congressional legislation advancing the interests of the race. Recently a committee from the local Afro-American Council waited upon Speaker Henderson to urge the passage of the Morrel "anti jim-crow" car law. The Speaker received the committee very courteously and directed them to present the matter to the Committee on Inter-State Commerce, whose duty it was to present resolutions of this nature to Congress. We trust the Committee will properly present the resolution to the House. A young colored man has invented an automobile electric igniter of gasoline automobiles in Des Moines, Iowa. Prince Henry of Prussia received a number of presents and tokeus of esteem from colored people, while at Milwaukee. The colored men of Wagner, I. T have organized on oil and mineral company with capital a stock of $100,000. The colored women of St. Louis are inaugurating an industrial home for the reforming of fallen women of the race. A good move. The National Negro Business League will meet this year at Richmond, Va., in August, and it is of the utmost importance that there should be a large representation present, larger than the Boston or Chicago representation. How is this to be secured? Our business men and women all along the line should begin to organize now in their several localities, and not wait a short time before the August meeting.

The Washington Axe is a new comer in the Afro-American field and we give it a hearty welcome. There is plenty of room on top. Jas. W. Poe is editor and Wm Walker manager. A Kentucky judge has issued a restraining order against a colored Baptist congregation, which wanted to build a church on a piece of land near the governor's house, for which it had baid $4,000. Hastings, Neb., is quite proud of Miss Estella Craig, the first colored girl to be graduated from the high school of that city. In an elocutionary contest Miss Craig took second honors. We compliment the young lady upon her success. The Portland (Oregon) New Age complains that for the first time "in many years the Republican county convention ignored entirely the 800 Afro-American voters, not one of whom was a member of the convention, but they are all expected to vote for the party nominees. Georgia has five colored men in the legislature. Alabama and Arkansas two each, one in South Carolina Florida, Mississippi and Louisiana. In Texas there is not even a white Republican in the legislature. This shows that Texas draws political lines pretty tight, so Northern men will not go to Texas to hunt office. The New York Central Railroad Diniog Car Cooks and Wailers Association, which was organized in New York City in December, 1899, and incorporated in August, 1901, has been very successful and its membership is constantly increasing. Porters, cooks, waiters and all railroad men and their friends are on the roll. The Maryland State Board of Medical Examination announced recently the results of the examinations during the past year of graduates to practice meidcine in that state. Of the 14 averages published, the highest was attained by a colored physician, Dr. H. Stanton McCard who opened an office some months ago in South Baltimore. His average was $94_{1/2}$ next to the highest ever made. If any man is in doubt about the real value of Mr. Washington's service to the race, and there appears to be some such abroad in the land, he has only to recall the fact that whenever a book is written for the purpose of assailing the race, the book reviewers invariably quote "Up from Slauery" in reply to it. This is the strongest kind of evidence of the beneficent character of Mr. Washington's work. Prominent Educators St. Paul, Minn., Special.—One of the largest, and it promises to be one of the best conventions of colored people ever held will be entertained by St. Paul next July. The National Educational Association will meet in Minneapolis from July 7 to 12; and hundreds of educators from all sections of the country will attend. The fifth annual meeting of the Afro-American council will be held in St. Paul on July 9, 10 and 11; the tenth annual meeting of the Afro-American Press association will hold its meeting in the city July 8. It is not known how many editors and publishers will attend the press association, but it is estimated that from 150 to 200 delegates and members will attend the council. At the same time there will many prominent colored educators in Minneapolis for the meeting of the educational association, and many of them will divide their time between the meetings there and the meetings of the council in this city. The program of the council has not been completed, but enough is known to give a good idea of the more prominent features. The sessions of the council will be held in the Hall of the house of representatives in the state capitol, but the evening meeting, which will be planned for all races, will be held in the Central Presbyterian church. On the evening of July 9, Prof. W. B. Dubois, of Atlanta University, will be one of the speakers. Prof. Dubois is to the higher education of the colored people all that Booker Washington is to their industrial training. The same evening Mrs. Mary Church Terril of Washington' D. C., former president of the National Association of Colored Women, will also speak. --- THE SEARCHLIGHT. WICHITA, - - - KANS. W. N.

After two years' discussion of the admission of colored women to the General Federation of Women Clubs, the anti-colorists won at the National meeting of Women's Clubs at Las Angeles, Cal., lost Monday, when the sixth convention voted to accept what is known as the compromise amendment adopted by New York several weeks ago. Upon the opening of Monday's meeting it was evident that the spirit of tolerance would prevail. Mrs. Granger of Georgia moved that sections 2 and 3, article II, be considered first, which was the signal that the fight was on. Mrs. Gallagher, of Ohio spoke and in concluding she said:—"When the colored women are strong enough to stand on an equal footing with the whites, the consideration of their admittance will be timely; but in God's name let us not stop their progress by admitting them now." Thus ends one of the most heated questions that have ever arisen between the two races of women. Although the colored ladies who were elected as delegates were as well educated and refined as any in the land, yet on account of their color they are denied admission to this body. The colored people are republicans and believe in the principles of that party; because, of the principles of all other parties, those of the republican party are most favorable to their interest as a race. As in the past, The Searchlight will be published once each week, regularly and on time and will continue to carry the latest race news to the homes of its large and constantly increasing list of subscribers.

WELCOME PARAGRAPHS FROM ABROAD ABILENE, KANSAS. Mr. R. L. Branough is improving nicely and will soon be out again. Mr. Geo. Williams came home from Harrington Tuesday and is now on the sick list. Mr. Nate Warder, from Gypsum visited his family in Abilene Sunday The C. L. S. gave a concert April 29 and renderd an interestin program. Mi. Warren Warder, one of the most popular young men of Abilene, has always, since he has been here, been trying to do all he con for the race during which time he has had great success and now the friendship and love of all who know him. So strong is his determination that when he speaks of doing anything, we know that it will come to pass. His last concert occured about April 29; this he met with great success and has gained more praise by it than any other. Just a few weeks before this event Mr. Warder had a wonderful dream called "The World of Troubles" which he thought would be a good idea to carry out in real characters just as he dreamed it. This formed a part of the program. 'Twas a dream concerning love, marriage and murder. Sometimes it brought over us a feeling of sadness and sometimes happiness. As it was such a long and wonderful dream. I shall not attempt to explain it, but I allow much praise to the author of such a play. It was fine. Not only the grown folks but even the little children showed great interest in the way he conducted it. In conclusion I will say there is certainly something great in the future for Mr. Worder and if he continues his great works he will some day achieve great success. Ina Holm. CHERRYVALE, KANSAS.
