A REMEDY For AN INCREASING
DISEASE.

The decision in Georgia against
colored knights of Pythians; a SIM
liar outcome to trial in which the
Negro Elks of New York were de-
PENDANTS; and the case now pending
in Mississippi court, where the
white Odd Fellows seek to put the
Negro organization Of the same name
out Of business, serve to remind us
again to call attention to the absolute
necessity Of Negro fraternaI socJe-
ties getting together for mutual de-
Tense.
Several years ago, this paper.
foreseeing the trend of affairs, ad-
vocated the formation of a Friendly
Society Movement, the government of
which was to be placed in the hands
of representatives of all the Organi-
cations participating. This body was
to enact laws for it's own government
and decide upon the amount of the
tax to be levied. for defense, upon
| the members of the participating or
CARNATIONS.
The Advocate had hoped that the
| Odd Fellows, Knights Of Pythias
| True Reformers, Gallilean Fisher
men, Knights and Ladies of Honor
Masons, st. Lukes, and, in fact, every
one of our many fraternal societies
would see the wisdom Of the move
ment proposed The Knights of Pyth-
las did appoint committee to take
the matter up with other organiza
tions but nothing came of it.
We dreamed of a tax of one cent
per annum upon each of the 1 900,
600 or more members Of the race
who are affiliated with some secre

the $1,072.8O they owed Did they
do it? Mr.. Mitchell can best answer
that question, since he seems to be
the boss OF Virginia. ...
For the four years mentioned the
| Pythians Of Virginia owe $3,3O3.SO,
more or less, II to this be added
their dues for the present year, the
total of their, Indebtedness would be
about $4,000. This sum for the Pyth-
ians alone, the Calantheans, since the
statistics for that department are not
at hand, are not considered. Mr..
Mitchell has succeeded after some
struggle in collecting $1,000. Why?
If the writer were of a suspicious
nature, of which he iS not accus-
ed by his worst enemy, he might sug-
gest that the collection Of that ST..
900 and Mr.. M1tchelrs announcement
of his candidacy for the Supreme
CHARACTERISTIC came too close togeth-
er not to be mistaken for twins. Mr.
Mitchell has been the Pythian boss Of
Virginia too long for any one to be-
lieve that his state would not have
paid the tax, had he been in accord
with the movement, as were the
Grand Chancellors of all the other
states.
But, no. Mr., Mitchell's was the
part to make the discord in this, as
in about every thing undertaken In
the past six years by the Supreme
Lodge. He is the cockolorum whose
barnyard is Virginia, into which
none must enter or from which
nothing must go, unless, perchance
a high Office is to be had. He thinks
to knock down the Supreme Chan
ceIlorship with $1,000, but his pole
is about three and half lengths too
short. The representatives to the
next Supreme session will not be so
blind to the interests of the order as
to place at its head one who should
have been suspended long since for
| refusing to obey Its laws

MTTCHELL'S CANDIDACY.

John Mitchell, jr., poobah Of Pyth-
iaaism in Virginia, in that he is
Grand Chancellor, Grand Worthy
Counsellor of the Order of Calanthe:
and Brigadier Of the Uniform Rank
department, has been unanimously
endorsed, so he states in letter to
prospective Supreme Lodge represent
tRtives, for the Supreme Chancellor
ship. He states further, presumably
this to the known friends Of the late
Supreme Chancellor Starks, that ne
did not oppose the laws advocated by
the deceased leader, because of any
ail~will he bore him, but rather be-
cause he feared the power delegated
by the new laws might be abused by
whoever happened to succeed Mr..
? Starks.

eptstle, he makes the astounding an
nouncement that, after some strug-
gle, he has succeeded in getting his

suggest that they be compelled. to
