The Kuklux.

w will say for the Homo journal
that it deprccatcs the existence OF ans
secret political organization, whether
that organization be in the interests Of
Radical or Conservative. W. do not
know that the Kuklux Khan is a polit-
ical organization. We rather think it
q combination Of brave men to protect
the innocent against outrage, and when
we reflect that the laws of this State
afford Conservatives little or no pro.
tection-when We reflect that the very
dregs of society are turned loose upon
US from the ~penitentiary, ifthey happen
to be Radicals-when VIC reflect upon
the outrages being perpetrated by bes
tial negroes upon white women all over
the land--is it a wonder that men
should combine to avengc such crimes
against the peace and happiness of So
cicty. For Loyal Leaguers to denounce
the Kuklux is like the wolf up stream
abusing the lamb down stream for
muddying the water. The muddy wa
ter ran as naturally from the wolf to
the Lamb, us secresy runs from Loyal
Leagues to the Kuklux. In alluding
TO the publication of an order, bearing
the ear marks of Ku Klux, in Memphis
of this State, the Avalanche of that city
says.
"The scalawags who have ruled with
high hand for a few yeare past, and
tyrannized over II people, are spas
modically nervous. They shake in
their tracks like dog eating peach.
stones, and cry Justify for the suppress
sion of this "sccret organization" Sc.
cret! Oh, ali! How are you Loyal
Leagues and Grand Army Of the Black
Republicans? Opposed to anything
done in in the dark, are your Ofcourse
you are, unless you do it yourselves.
How long since you saeaked home.
Lutte at night, from q conclave of cons.
pirators, where dark plans against
the righte- of born freemen were set on
foot and matured by the very powers
OF darkness. 1t we'll becomes men
whose political lives are made, and their
purses filled with ill gotten gains
through the lacteals Of oath bound
leagues, to talk against any secret or
~ganization. 1t is all right with them
so long as they use secret political and
military machinery to their own advan.
tage, but when their coward souls, goa
ded by a thousand stiugs Of resurrect
ed conscience. begin to suspect that
their internal machines may be paraly
zed and others more potent for destuc-
ton turned against them, they pale
with deadly fear, and gasp in tremulous
accents a note of warning against the
new and imaginary rebellion. The
Avalanche has no knowledge or infor
nation respecting the order of the Ku-
Klux Khan but as it has an existence
in Tennessee, it will doubtless spread
all over the State and throughout the
Mississippi Valley. What its mission
is will be developed in the future. Al
far as the course Of the order is known
in Middle Tennessee, they have done
nothing beyond looking after a few no
torious thieves and murdcrers, who
had been neglected by those entrusted
with the execution of law and Justice
