agltated very much In favor Of the matter
and are
HELPING THE NEGROES 70 COME.
One Of the Wanted plans Of this man, who
is the spokesman Of his crew, Is that they
lately purchased tve sections OF beautiful and
extremely fertile land In Waibrnnsee county,
near here, the most Of 1t lying along pro-
jected line OF railroad, which, when 1t Is built,
will become largely enhanced In value. They
acre, one-tenth cash and the balance In specf-.
fled payments. This land is paid for out OF
the fund in the hand OF the organization, char
tered by the State under the name OF the
TYEEDMEN's STATE CENTRAL ORGANIZATION.
The society, though chartered and appa-
rentIy State affair, ID simply q private cor
poration, not obligated W report 70 anybody,
whatever moneys ere placed IN their hands
On these lands they propose to locate a.
number Of negroes and let them occupy them

negroes make them valuable or ready for oe-
cupatfon by o better and paying class OF
that in the ordinary course Of politics they
will be ousted from office, and II, at the end Of
ten years. such condition occurs, they will
be provided for very handsomely In the pro-
ceeds OF this
sHHEwD SPECULATION.
The committee don't want any negroes TO

do not want, and hence they are active 10
sPIHITINa THE NEGROES OUT or THE WAY.
On the lands referred to above q certain
number Of negroes will be placed and pro-
vided with implements and WhereWfth TO try
the experiment 81 making Of them what they
never can become--farmers. In the district
where J. G. Hibard, the secretary OF the asso-
citation, resides, a considerable number OF ne
groes will be located, and as Hibard will be 9
candidate for the Legislature, the object OF
this part Of the plan Is very apparent
Thus far the dispersion OF the ebony wards
has been made to carry out the plan OF POI
litical colonization. Some colonies that we're
started awhile before the late exodus excite
ment were placed where the committee finds
they are
STRONG ENOUGH TO CARRY ELECTIONS.
and. therefore, 1t will not aid them. This re-
fusal has caused considerable feeling and
comment on the part OF the negroes, who feel
themselves leaders, and do not take kindly to
being snubbed In their calls for aid, etc.
With regard to the way 10 which the ex.
element concerning the exodus is being kept
up, the following report made BY the Repub-
1iean paper, the Capital, will tell Id a more
forcib1e way than II the statement was made
by myself:
THE REV. JOSEPH COOK AT THE CITY PARK
At least $500 people, half Of them colored
were at the City Park yesterday afternoon to
listen to Rey Joseph Cook r on the o exodus
meeting, and introducing Mr.. Cook, made the
best speech on the negro exodus question that
has ever been listened to In Kansas. Among
the statements In his remarks, he said thai
lion II they come. So long as he remained II
the executive chair her doors were wide open
to every race and color, and shall not be
closed Gov. st. John then spoke q few min.
utes on the work Of the relief association
etc. Mr.. Cook opened his speech by saying
that extortion, pauperism and murder were
the three great causes OF the exodus. Elk.
tortion is practiced by the landowners; pau
perism Is the result OF extortion. The speak
or proved by persons in the audience that
eolored mans life 1s not as safe In the South
to-day as 1t was In the days when they were
slaves. A number Of votes were taken on
different points, the speaker using this
method to better illustrate his ideas. n.
