Lebanon, KY, Standard. Aug. 4.
Negro Ku-klux In kentucky.

John Miles, a brother of Bishop
Miles, colored man living on the farm
Of James Bell, about four miles from
town, voted the Democratic ticket last
Monday. This exercise of his rights
as freeman was not palatable to his
colored brethren, and called out sun
dry threats Of personal violence. 1t
was given out that he and all other
colored men voting the Democratic
ticket would be tied up and whipped
Monday night party went to Miles
house aud tried to gain admission, one
of their number acting as spokesman
and pretending to be alone. Miles
suspected that mischief was intended.
and refused to open the door. After
some parley, the party outside threw a
rock through the window and fred
several pistols. One of the balls from
the pistols passed through the window
and lodged in the mautlepiece. The
party then took their departure.
Yesterday Charles Graves, VIM.
Wayne and Ewing Penick were arrested
under the second section of what is
known as the Kn-klux act, passed by
the Kentucky Legislature. and ap-
proved April IL, 1873. They were
held to bail in the sum of $500 each
for their appearance to-day, in default
of which they went to Jail.
Miles bears an excellent character.
The. party that went to his house told
him that they had come for the money
he received for voting the Democratic
ticket. That they meant business is
evidenced by the fact that they took
with them rope. which they left in
the yard. The colored people should
make mp their minds that those OF
their race who vote the Democratic
ticket will be protected. 1t will save
them a good deal of trouble.
