THE KU-KLUX AND THEIR FORKS.

Gen. Napoleon B. Forrest has been before
the Ku-Klux Committee at WashingtOn-in
fact. he has been t,Cice examined by it.
There Is the pity of it. At the first sitting, he
went. as became so gallant chief, the whole
hog. bristles and all. There gere no Ku-Klux
never had been any-at least he had no
knowledge of any. That was swearing to
some purpose, and the General stepped down
to receive the admiring plaudits of his COM
patriots.
But somebody happened to recollect very
different story told by this same General to
journalists on two occasions in 1868 so copies
of their reports were hunted uD, the General
recalled, and confronted with his own recorded
statements in August and September OF that
wear OF course he denied the accuracy of
the repOrts-that was a dire necessity-but
they compelled him to recOllect much that he
had conveniently forgotten He still denied
that he had been Ku-Klux, but at length
admitted that he belonged to the Order OF
"Pale Faces"-anOther name for the one thing.
This he said he had disbanded in the Spring
of 1868; but being confronted by the awkward
dates of the aforesaid newspaper letters, con-
cluded that it must have been in the Fall.
In short, the General left the Committee-rOom
thoroughly hattened out, with the wreck and
debris of his original testimony lying in heaps
around him.
We propose here to complete the evidence
afforded by his reluctant admissions, and
show that, so late as November, 1868, the
Order of Pale Faces" or "White Camelia,"
or whatever else it may from time to time
choose to call itself, was a terrible power at
the South-that it compelled tens of thousands
of legal voters either to shun the polls or vote
contrary to their choice, and that the State of
Louisiana was thus constrained by violence
and terrorism to vote against Grant and Col
fax and for Seymour and Blair. Georgia and
other States were similarly influenced; but we
will confine this scrutiny to Louisiana, because
that State alone presents these phases:
1. A large majority of her legal voters we're
COlOred men;
2. They had recently chosen Republican
Governor;
3. 1t was generally understood that should
Seymour and Blair be chosen, the White Demo-
Gratis would proceed to reconstruct their state
as Cen Blair had proposed in his Broadhead
letter, by ignoring and forcibly subvertiDg the
"carpet-bag government and erecting q
"White Mans government" in its place;
4. No one ever believed or pretended that
any considerable number of Blacks syInpa-
thized with this purpose. 0n the contrary,
New-York tribune., 1871-06-29

an evidence Of the calm good sense on Dotn
sides which out of so many difficulties brought
forth treaty which two great nations couid
hOnorably accept.
1t is right to add also, what the English
themselves will be slow to admit, that, for
the Treaty as it stands, we are indebted
largely to Mr. Sumner. His speech when
secured the rejection of the Johnson-C Clarendon
Treaty needs, perhaps, no other eulogy tnan
that it did secure that rejection. But
it was also the first statement of the American
claim which awoke attention in England, ana
although no English journal dared publish IL,
the comments of English journals lndl-
Gated the extent of tho alarm which
Mr.. Sumner had excited. Mingled with
alarm, there was keen resentment 1oi-
lowed by energetic protests that Wna'
Mr. Sumner demanded would never be grahteo'
But those who will compare Mr. summers
claims with the present Treaty will find that our
Government has not much departed from ms
grounds. The question of English recognition
of Rebel belligerency is supposed 10 nave oeen
waived. but it would not be difficult 10 argue
that even that question may be ralseu a'
Geneva.
We do not. however, care to insist on that,
nor on any other special advantage accrulng 10
us. nor TO deplore the failure to gain all that
WE might have gained. The essential
thing il that there should be concord
instead of discord between two great
nations, speaking one language, covering n,n
tho globe, and everywhere bound togetner ny
identity of interests and community OF IDEAS
W. hoye some reason to know that the En-
olisb Government has been influenced by
views not less broad than these. NO
doubt it feels itself less strong in Eu-
rope than when it fought one-haf the
continent and subsidized the other. No doubt
it looks eagerly for an ally, or at least for a
neighbor on whose goodwill it can count
when the struggle begins, as it must begin, Tor
that Empire which reaches round the world
But both in London and bin Washington
the idea prevailed that English-speak-
ing peoples ought to be friends and
not enemies; that they are natural allies /;
that they ought to lead civilization; that they
ought to contribute something to the La"
whose principles all civilized nations profess
to obey that they ought to recognize the prlh-
ciple of arbitration and that they 0ught 10 nake
n Treaty which should stand as beacon-ngnt
for diplomacy in the future. The debate IN
tbe House of Lords, of which we have pub
Ushed full abstract, is all that need be cited TO
show that we do not rate too highly the pur-
poses and motives that have guided the English
Government. There will be evidence enough
some day of similar character, if it were
wanted, to vouch for what our own Govern
ment meant; and when the whole record is
spread before the world, England and America
will alike be able to point to it with pride, and
coming generations will remember with graft
tude the effort that resulted in a hearty friend
ship between the two nations

Commenting public officer for doing his
duty is somewhat supcrfuous praise; never
theless we wish to call attention TO the en-
ergy with which the Superintendent of Public
Buildings has begun TO enforce the new Build
ing law which his persistency extorted from
the last Legislature. He has already estab-
lished new test for girders and other iron
work used in buildings; and yesterday
his Inspectors enjoined several builders
for using inferior mortar and bricks,
and for beginning work on incomplete and
unapproved plans. This vigilance unhaggingly
maintained for year or two would greatly
strengthen and improve the style of city archi-
lectures but his enforced delays will some day
arouse the wrath of a Ward politician or a
member of the "Riug,n and then there will
come n sudden and disastrous conclusion to
all this promising energy. Meanwhile the

The World illustrates incapacity for un-
derstanding plain English prose, which is the
groundwork of its political economy, 81 fol-

"TBE TRIBUNE, moreover does not deny the fact First
that We are taxed slsoO0o annually for the luxury OF
wearing boots and shoes; and second that the Treasury
only gets s. 3OOOOo OF It, while certain monopoes pocket
45O0,Coo"
AnsWr.-Yes, THE TRIBUNE does deny ex-
actly that and has written article after article
TO prove the pretense absurd. We deny that
"we are taxed $1S,OOO,OOO," or SsOOO,0OO, or any
thing like that sum, by our present duties on
Boots and Shoes, on Leather, and on all other
materials employed in producing them. We
hold that these duties, while they secure TO
our people virtual monopoly OF their home
market for these important and necessary pro-
ducts, do not materially increase their average
cost--that we are mora cbeaply and abundantly
shod, as a people, than we would or could he
if we had no Tariff whatever, and half our
Leather and quarter Of our Boots and Shoes
were in consequence imported, In fact, we
hold that the American People could not afford,
if we had no Tariff, to wear Boots or Shoes
nearly so generally as they do, and that half
the grumbling ShOe-bOsses would not be bosses
at all, were it not for that very policy againsI
which their wooden heads are so viciOuslE
projected.
If The World does not by this time conf
prehend that THE TRIBUNE utterly scouts thI
assumption that an article mainly home-mad1
is increased in average cost to our peOplJ

manner, the General says that the con-
