WHY WHITEWASH HIM
The Associated Charities Made q
Mistake
WHEN THEY PLACED Y. L. RUSS

In Charge of Their work, and Now
Haven't the Grace to Remove Him
The General Opinion of Russ in Me-
PhersOm Where He is Known Ought
to BE Enough.
About fourteen of the district visitors
of the Associated Charities, assembled at
the home of Mrs. Van Cleave, president
of the Social Purity league, yesterday
afternoon to discuss the charges that had
been preferred by applicants for charity
against Secretary Walter l. Russ.
The meeting was announced for three
o'clock and two of the colored women
appeared at the house to tell what they
! knew but Mrs. Van Cleave who had had
talk with Vice President Edward Wild
/ er, had changed her mind about an in
vestigation and sent the women home
! telling them that she did not believe
there would be a meeting that day.
Some of Mr.. Russ friends were pres
ent and as one of the others said after
wards "did all the talking"
The women who were there to COM
plain had no witnesses and maintained a
respectful silence.
The meeting as an investigation was q
farce.
The Social Purity league, which has
done some good work in the past in get
ting few inconsequential colored men
and women into trouble, has concluded
this case is none of its business.
1t was announced last night that the
entire matter would be laid before Pres
ident B. l. Smith of the charities, and he
would decide whether or not there shall
/ be full and free investigation.
! Mr.. Russ is in a position now to de-
mand and receive an investigation if he
! is innocent.
There is no question that Walter. L.
Russ is the wrong man for secretary OF
the Associated Charities or any other
such influential position.
Letters have been received from Nc
Pherson, in which the best people oil
that town are given as authority, show
ing that Mr.. Russ is not fit person to bt
pushed to the front in any work.
4 man who has been in the penitent
larry, although innocent, loses his useful
ness in public work; he should stay il
the background. But all the evidence
from Mcpherson is that Mr. Russ is no
considered innocent to this day.
Mr.. Russ usefulness is gone.
Most of the district visitors won't wan
to do business with him hereafter
Tho MCPHERSON county district cour
could hardly have made mistake.

ANCIENT HISTORY.
Two Forgotten Cases Heard BY Un1tes
States District Judge Phillips.

Two Forgotten Cases Heard BY United
States District Judge Phillips.
United States District Judge John Il.
Phillips, of Kansas City, was in Topeka
yesterday afternoon.
One of the objects of his visit was to
hear arguments in the case against Mo-
ses Harmon. This will be a surprise to
everyone who remembers the case, and
supposed it was dropped long ago.
1t has been over four years since Har-
mon was convicted of sending obscene
matter through the mails He was given
the extreme sentence of five years in the
penitentiary. Four months of the time
was served when David Overmeyer Sc
cured his release on the ground that the
sentence was technically wrong. Since
then Harmon has been out on bail, and
it was generally supposed that the case
had been dropped.
The question now At issue is whether
