by the Association for the protec-
ton of colored women during 1911

The organization was formed es-
pecially for the protection of young
scolored women who come to this
city from various sections of the

prevent the possibility of their

GRAND WORTHY
MASTER GRIFFIN DEAD

The news of the death of Grand
Worthy Master W. R. Griffin in a
wreck on the Norfolk and West
ern railroad, near Fords. Va, and
within % miles of Petersburg and
about A miles of this city on last
Monday morning spread like Wild
fire and caused almost a panic
among members of the Order.
They were almost stunned by the
suGdenness of the information.
While the wreck occurred Monday
morning, and it was reported that
two colored men were seriously in
jured, their names were not given
and it was not until Tuesday morn
ing that it was known that Grand
Worthy Master w. r. Griffin was
one of these passengers. He had
been removed to the Petersburg
Hospital in an unoonscience con-
dition and when he died, his effects
we're examined and his identity es-
tablished. The surgeons explain
ed the delay by stating that they
were interested in trying to save
his life first and find out who he
was afterwards. Mr.. Griffin was
travelling in the colored section of
the train next to the baggage coach
and was the only passenger of
color. The colored porter, Mr.. j.
W. Brown of Roanoke was in the
compartment with him and both
were fatally injured Grand Worthy
Master Griffin was unmarried.
The porter had just purchased a
cosy home in Roanoke where he
lived with his family.-Richmond

When colored men sit around
and say the white man is mean
and will not give him, nor his son
or daughter a nice job in his Office
or store, that colored man is fifty
years behind the times, and as big
a fool as he is behind. Colored
men should do like white men.
Think hundred years ahead and
make places for their children
while they are growing up or while
they are in school preparing them
selves to go out in the battle of
life. White men are not going to
give SO awful many nice jobs to
eolored men and women because
there are not enough of them for
the white people. They look out
for their own race first and see
about us last; and who can blame
them? We should do as they do,

ate outrages on womanhood. They
constitute vertible milestone
around the neck of the race and is
also the chief hindrance to its pro-
gress.
The Negro press and the Negro
preacher are not wholly without
blame for existing conditions.
The Negro press, on the whole,
is cowardly and seekers of ap-
plause. The time and space which
should be given to the saying of
the thing needful are used most
often in playing to galleries. The
Negro press will often howl long
and loud over some Negro lynched
and at the same time remain per-
fectly dumb in regard to the crime
which provoked the lawlessness of
lynching. They have anathemas
in plenty for the white sinners, but
no word of condemnation for the
act of the black sinner. And I
cannot resist the temptation to be-
lieye that il our newspapers would
harp more often on the cause DR.

the loafer-the classes which furn-
ish the victims and excuse for
lynchings-I am inclined to be-
lieve, | was about to say that
lynchings would soon be as they
ought to be, things of the past.
And the Negro ministry is not as
stalwart in its opposition to crime
as it was twenty years ago. There
are too many rowing ones and. too
many preachers with easy and ac.
commodating standards of morals.
Were [ to say that all OF the Ne
gro preachers were such as have
mentioned, 1 would be guilty of
uttering a libelous untruth and
giving expression to gross and
damaging falsehood. So l do not
and will not say that they all, as a
class, are thus guilty. For there
are today some of as fine God fear
ing, self sacrificing Negro preach
er-and | personally know them
as any of whom Christianity could
boast, even in the Apostolic age.
But the simple truth compels me
to admit that such preachers
among the Negroes, are not in the
majority, and their number is not
increasing as rapidly as is to be
desired. The majority of the Ne
gro preachers, like the majority of
Negro editors, can see the beam in
the eye of the white race but fail
to see the steamboat in the eye of
