BIBLE AND PISTOL.
Necessities in Colored Pastors Life
Says Rev. G. D. Olden.

Rev. G. D. Olden, pastor of the First
African Baptist church concluded his
series of sermons against vice last
night. Rev. Mr.. Olden came to To-
peka some five years ago and since then
has been active in his fight for the bet
terment of the morals in his race. Mr..
Olden said in part:
Il feel almost alone in this work. I
have received no words of encourage
ment from my cOlOred brethren but
the white people have sent me letters
thanking me for the work I am doing.
I walked down Kansas avenue one
day in the company Of ladies and in
front of a low resort a woman clad in
scant mother hubbard came out and
danced on the sidewalk in front of Us.
See the effect this would have on
yOungeropeOple. There was a time when
such things were tolerated but the
standing Of our race has 50 far adj
vanced that it must be stopped. Some
cOlOred people say that if white people
run joints that the colOred people
should, but if I commit wrong tits no
reason that you should.
THE white man has nine points of
the law on his side and the bulk of the
wealth and viii not allow ignorance and
poverty to rule him. The best cOlored
people of this town can not give an en-
tertainment without One-third of the
crowd being from the low classes.
went to an entertainment a few nights
ago and saw two of the most disrepu-
table cOlored women in town there. The
reason of this is because some of the
better people associate with the lower
ones on the SLY. Let the good people
come out and stand on Gods side. We
must rid ourselves of these evils. What
the negro is to be in the future is what
he makes himself"
In speaking of the trouble last Mon
day Rev. Mr.. OIden said: Some wish
to know why 1 carry pistol. When
colored minister here goes among his
flock he must carry a Bible in one hand
and a pistol in the other
