in the South. the race
seems to be tending in the di--
rection of a bi-racial organiza-
tion of society in which the
Negro is gradually gaining a
limited autonomy. 1t is hard
to estimate the net effect OF
of the white mans insulation
of the Negro. One OF the
most important effects has
been to establish a common
interest among all the differ
ent colors and classes OF the
Arace. This sense of solidarity
has grown up gradually with
the organization Of the Negro
people.

ATTEMPT TO EXCLUDE
NEGROES IS THWARTep

of a number of narrow-mind-
ed white persons of this town
to exclude Negroes as resi- :
dents has not met with the
approval of Gov. Hodges,
who, in a letter to one of the
prejudiced citizens, announced
himself as unalterably oppos-
ed to discrimination of any
kind on account Of color.
Recently Gov. Hodges pa
rolled from the Kansas P9ni-
Tertiary Ollie Turner, a color
ed woman, who was given a
position as domestic in the
home of one of the leading
citizens of kiowa. Not long
after Ollie Turner had taken
up residence in kiowa her
employer received threaten
ing letters, and was informed
that petition had been cir,
culated to force him to dis
charge his colored servant, as
the residents did not want any
Negroes in the town. The
I.eWploYerswrQteto to Governor
Hodges, informing the execu-
tive of the threatening letters.
The Governor was told that
Ollie Turner had been kind :
ness itself, that she was the
best domestic he ever had,
and that she attended strictly
to her own business. When
a letter protesting against
Ollie Turner's presence in
kiowa was received, he an
swered as follows:
regret advising you that a
statement of that kind is un-
fair, not Democratic, and | do
not believe it is in accordance
with the wishes Of the citizens
iof kiowa, Kan. If the con-
duct of the paroled Negro
woman is not satisfactory to
your citizenship, ask that
you state specifically in what
manner her conduct has been
Objectionable. | would also
ask that you advise me where
in sh= has violated any of the
rules of the Parole Board.
These rules are binding, are
sharply drawned, and are very
drastic. am anxious to have
information at the earliest
possible moment, so that |
may be able to give YOUR let
ter further consideration.
If there is no other reason
for her commitment to the
penltentiary, or her transpor-
tation to some other city, than
that she is a colored woman
you should know without writ.
ing me that your request will
not be granted, or even con-
sidered- The colored people
of Kansas have the same right
to the protection of the law Of
our State as the white race
has, and So long as Lam Ex.
ecutive, the laws of this State
will be enforced impartially.
am astonished that any
man should so far forget him
self as to make a request such
as you have and should be so
unfair to any race of people
