No. 241 I THE GRIFFIN RIFLES Will Leave Sunday to Spend Four Days in Camps The Griffin Rifles are becoming vnry (.Ji lliil si ast ie <r«i r the outing ll.ej will tuke next week, and have uLunt com pleted all nece nary arrangements. They will leave Sunday morning al 7 o’clock via. the Southern lor Wurm Springs, wbete they will pitch their tents ami for lour days have an en campment oa a small scale. The tents, which were loaned by the state, arrived thia morning. Captain Smith, in speaking to a Cti.i reporter today, said lie < xpeeled to carry nearly every man in bis com pany, although some of the merch.i its hesitated in giving their consent r the eletks to leave. He is sure all objections will ba removed before Sunday, as the merchants should show their appreciation of the services ren dered by tbs company recently and grant all a few days leave of absence. The men pay their own expenses and Captain thinks it is as lit tle as their employers could do to give them the time asked for.

Roosevelt at ■ the unveiling of the statue of Fred | Douglas at Rochester, New York, Fri-! day, was interesting. It was about as I fair to the south us -an addre.-s of the I kind could well be from the standpoint j of the northerner, who really knows but little of the dangers the southern people have to contend with, especially those who live in the rural districts. The governor was right when he said I that the best colored man was the one | who put down crime wherever it was found, and the worst is the one who discredits his race by falling short of his duty as a citizen. The negro in the south has no wrong, except such as he brings upon himself, by the com mission of crimes so foul that commu nities are for the moment thrown into a passion they find it impossible to resist, even if they bad the inclination to make the attempt. S:> long as the negro is a law abiding, honest man, he Is seldom molested and usually gets ad tlm rights he is eniitled to as a cit'z i) Stop the crime and there "ill be no need < f a pun Oh hue nt, which (| v Roose Vs t s <■. s is “i qiia 11 v shame- It may be true in such cases that two wrongs do not make a right, but stop the first wrong and there will be no occasion for the second —Co lumbus Enquirer.
