Ku-Klux.

The Times of last week insists that
the South is overrun with Ku klux
maraudcrs. To sustain that idea, it
gafbles a portion Of the letter of the
elder Ewing, on the Force bill. Will
it dare give the whole OF that letter an
insertion? The fact is, no intelligent
Republican outside the corrupt crew
who desire Office ct all hazards, pre-
tends to believe the stuff circulated
concerning tho existence of such a
band in the South. Only a few years
since the editor of the Times was quite
as certain tLat an order called the
Golden Circle" existed in Ashland.
and went 30 far as to assert that 'its
members were known and marked for
military vengeance" When called
upon to state who the members were,
before a Grand Jury, under oath, he
admitted that the whole story was a
fabrication of his own to be used for
political purposes! There was truth
fulness for you The Ku-klux stories

and wicked as the Golden Circle"
inventions, because they arc intended
to justify the basest attempt ever made
in this country to convert the Presi-
dent into a military Autocrat, WELD
ing more power than an Alexander of
Russia or the Sultan of Turkeyl
General Sherufan, is supposed to
have the means of knowing something
about the matter, and being a Repub-
lican, would of course give his party
the advantage of all the facts. In a
late speech he says:
81 probably have as good means of
information as most persons in regard
to what is called the Ku klux, and am
perfectly satisfied that the thing is
ogcrestimated, and that if the Ku-klux
Bills were kept out of Congress, and
the army kept at its legitimate duties,
there are enough good and true mon
in ali Southern States to put down all
bands of marauders."
That is the language of an honest
man, and had it been needed. much
trouble for, the future, would have
been avoided.
Tho Force bill was passed as a
mean of annoying, exciting and goad
ing the Southern people into resent
ment, that the Washington despot
may again glut himself upon South
ern blood and plumber. Will this
foul conspiracy succeed? If so, the
American people will deserve what
they will receive, the rule of a brutal
tyrant. They have been warned by
the ablest men of both parties
against the consequences of trampling
upon and disregarding the express
provisions of the Constitution in ref
erence to quelling State Instructions.
The fact is, the Republican leaders
are driven to desperation. They feel
THAI their political days are numbered
and that power is rapidly disappear
ing. To retain power, they must shed
more blood, and they will never rest
until they haye produced another in
%surrection.
Let the patriotic men Of both par
ties unite m putting down the corrupt
men who surround and fawn upon
Grant, and urge the speedy restora-
ton of the South to all her rights, by
a general and complete amnesty that
.ker people may select their own rulers;
and discomfort and revenge will be
removed from that section of our coun-
try and peace and prosperity again
bless her people.

Self-Operating
Clothes s-W asher and Boiler +!
PATENT RIGHT SECURED.
,he Best Labor-Saving Clothes Cleaner
ever invented.
Thomas Greene, sole Proprietor of the
Patent Right for the Pacific Coast.

There are but few inventions or discoveries
which produce a complete revolution in any de-
partment of labor. To have supposed, a year ago,
that the dirtiest garment could be washed clean,
in twenty thirty minutes, by boiling alone,
would have been regarded as an indication of in
sanity. But it has been demonstrated beyond any
doubt, that this process not only cleans the Clothes
but that garments thus washed become whittier and
clearer the longer it is used. Some people suggest
that clothes will get yellow after awhile. by being
washed in this way but such supposition has no
foundation in fact, and is contradicted by the ex
perience of every lady who has adopted this mode
of washing.
Everybody who has tried the machine in Shasta
have expressed themselves highly pleased with
its operations. 1t must be to be fully appre-
ciated, its full merits cannot be properly set
forth in ordinary advertisement
Public and private tests have been given of this
apparatus for the last six months, and more than a
million of people have witnessed its success. Ten
thousand boilers sold in New York City in less
than five opths, from stand, and at this time
the orders reach about one hundred day. Ne
one used it directed that did not recommend
it. 1t has been recommended by more than five
thousand persons in less than six months. Among
the names those of the most distinguished cit
izcns of the United States but the best
dation is to take the boiler and use it yourself Do
just as you are directed and you will be than
satisfied. 1t appeals to us all as matter of econ
omy, and can be shown to be the best kind of an
investment. 1t will return yearly dividend in
cash of TWO HUNDRED PER CENT Jon the
money invested. For instance, will suppose
your white clothing such as bed and table linen
ladies' and gentiemens' wear, and childrens' cloth
ing, only cost you $40 a year. They will last twice
as long washed in this way as by the old method.
Thus, you a~tually $50 year by investing 10
or 200 per cent. annually. Thsre ris. no family
scarcely but spends than here stated but this
is taken very low average of this branch of
family expense. Added to this is the great con-
venience and comfort of the thing, which ,alltaken
together, makes it luxury which no. family
we'll afford to be without.
This Boiler sells the best of any article Offer
ed to the public. Anybody after trying it fairly
will not let it go out of of the house.

Directions

Fill the boiler with soft. water to within about
three inches of the top of the inside boiler. Slice
up one pound bar of good hard soap.
Bring the water to boil, and then place the
clothes in the hot water. The water will imme-
diately pour over 1le shell all around, and if it
boils over raise the lid. c
Keep up hot fire for twenty minutes. Then
take the clothes out and Immediately SUDS them
through in soft water. If any shade of the dirt
remains. few rubs will take it all out. Then
rinse them in clean water wiring dry, and the wash
ing is done. Give particular heed to the following
SUGGESTIONS. rts-e -
The clothes need not be wet before placing them
in the Boiler. 1t is of vital Importance to THOR
OUGHLY SUBS the clothing after boiling. Every
lady knows that the least particle of suds left in
the clothes to dry will cause the clothes to look
yellow. A brisk fire is important in order to Pro-
duce rapid boiling. Time may be saved by stirring
or turning the clothes occasionally while boiling
The cover should not be removed, except when
necessary, in order to insure quick work. If the
washing be large one, the clothes should be as
sorted, dirty shirts, for instance, will require
double the time of sheets, pillow cases. napkins,
&c.
Articles much soiled may be left in for second
boiling. White aannels may be beautiful washed
without FULLING) by this, process. They
should be put in when the water is hot, and rnsed
out in hot water.
Colored clothes should not be mixed with white,
and unless the colors are fast they should never be
washed by this process. The most delicate laces
cambrics, &C., such would nearly fall to pieces
ifwashed in the ordinary way, may be was he'd per-
fecty, without injury, by this process. The almost
absolute necessity of using soft, or "broken, !"
water, is SO well understood. as to hardly need
mention here.
No machine ever invented will entirely remove
the streaks from dirty wristbands and Collars.--
This Self-washing Boiler more nearly does it than
any other. device. Should shade or streak remain
it will be found to be so reduced and softened as 10
disappear without the of wash-board, by
merely rubbing them with the hands, thus avoiding
all the wear and tear of clothing by washing. 1t
has been carefully estimated that clothing receives
more than oNE-HALF ITS WEAR by the old
process Of RUBBING, and consequently win last
twice long if washed by this new process, which
alone would pay for Boiler many times during
single year, in almost any family, to say nothing
of the important consideration cf saving labor. s
