Civil Rights In Kansas.
Emnoria Renublican.

Emporia Republican.
The Topeka Commonwealth relates TIT
following violation of the Kansas civi
rights law of 1874, under which the ag
grieved party should seek his remedy
Rev. Mr.. Christburg is the new pas
tor of the a. NJ. E. church in this city
He is a light mulattO, his father being
a Scotchman, and he shows good dea
of the Scotch in his build. He seems
to be well educated, uses good language
and is certainly as cleanly in his appear
ance and as well dressed as the average
clergyman while travelling. He arrived
in the city at l a. m. yesterday, and be-
ing an entire stranger, took the Omni-
bus, and got out at one of the firSt-claSS
hotels, with two other passengers.
These two gentlemen registered first,
and he noticed a consultation between
the two clerks who were up, and when
he went to register his name, he was
told that the house was full andhe could
not be accommodated. Mr.. Christburg
is confident from what he saw, and
from the whispered conversation be-
tween the two clerks, that this state
ment of want of room was mere eX-
cuSe for not giving him room because
of his color. He went to one other no.
tel and met with the same repulSe, and
then hunted up the calabOose where he
was given seat until daylight.
The incident, at the capital of re-
publican state like Kansas, with as
broad a legal protection as the Kansas
law offers, shows the breadth and depth
of the race and color prejudice through
out the country. The law is as quietly
but persistently ignored as if it had been
repealed. COlOred citizens are denied
hotel accommodations at the capital OF
Kansas in as inhOspitable manner as
in Mississippi or South Carolina. is 1t
any wonder that in democratic and III
southern states the late civil rights law
of congress was a dead letter? The
treatment Rev. Mr.. Christburg, whose
name alone is suggestive of his profess
sion, met with at Topeka is not only IL
legal, unjust and oppressive, but 1t Sug-
geStS the inability of civil rights laws,
state or national, to break down the
barriers white prejudice against negro
complexion.
We agree with the Commonwealth
when it says:
1t does not look well for the capital
city of Kansas, that respectable, well
dressed gentleman, should be forced to
pass the night in the calabOOse for the
cause of having a tint of negro blood in
his veins. We have no more patience
with colored men who desire to force
themselves into the society Of white
people who do not want them than we
have with white people who do this.
But this is different case. Negroes
are citizens, and as such are entitled to
all the privileges of citizens and the
right of men, like Mr.. ChriStburg, to
a place to lay his head is guaranteed
him by the laws of this state, and we
would like to see this as well as other
laws enforced.
We trust Mr.. Christburg will appeal
successfully to the law. Yet, in view
of the very public sentiment which die
tated the treatment he met, it is doubt
full if the jury system would return such
a verdict as the law calls for.

Templeton VS.. West.

The romantic marriage of Fay Tenn
pletOn, the beautiful young opera sing
er, to Billy West, the negro minstrel,
who is now playing an engagement in
New York, occurred in May last. Miss
Templeton is now in Milwaukee and
was asked by reporter if there was any
truth in the report that she and her hus-
band had separated. Yes, sir, it is so.
We separated on reaching Chicago and
l have ceased to live with him. IfOund
very quickly that he was not man l
could live with, and we quietly agreed
to separate. The truth of it is, did
not really want to marry him, but did
marry him just to show my father that l
was independent
'YOu are not yet divOrced?"
''NO, but we are to get a divorce as
soon as we have lived apart long enough
to enable us to do so. Our troubles we
kept very quiet, and either the papers
did not mention them for my sake, or
else they did not get hold of it. You
are the first newspaper man who has
asked about it. But L don't care who
knows it now. Such things are sure to
come out, and are always published
when actors or singers are concerned?"
You will remain with your fathers
company, will you not?''

made to provide for the current of
