to disband. Steve Hoyle sees in this
order an effective political weapon. If
he can hold the Khan together he will
be accepted as a hero by the hot
headed element who take Graham's
instructions to be the outgrowth of
cowardice. Hoyle has what he is
pleased to call big ambitions" and
the first of them is to beat Graham
in the election for the state legisla-
ture. He changes the robe of his men
from white to red, satisfying the rowdy
element by a series of lawless raids
and the better element by masquerade
dances and other social functions. 1t
is at one of these dances, held at the
house of Judge Butler, that the play
begins. Graham, coming to the Butler
homestead to resent the action of
Judge Butler, who has just disbarred
him from the practice of law, meets
Stella Butler, the judges daughter,
and is so impressed by her that he
promises to return to the dance. He
has an additional motive in coming
back, in that, as chief of the dead
Khan, he wants to watch Hoyle's men
and be sure that there will be no
rowdyism or violence. In the course
of the ball Judge Butler is assassin
ated by a carpetbagger named Larkin,
a combination of circumstances ma
king it appear that the murder was
committed by the wearer of the robe
chief of the Ku Klux Khan.
Stella, urged on by Hoyle, who is
in love with her, starts out to find
the name of the chief. Hoyle knows
perfectly well that the eventual dis
closure will implicate John Graham. |

hand of Stella and for seat in the
Legislature. Stella's mode of conduct |
ing her detective work is to lead |
Graham desperately into loving her, /
and this proves an easy task. How
ever. in the very moment of his con-
fession that he is the chief of the
Khan, Graham makes it clear that the
chief could not have been the murd-
erer of Judge Butler. Stella suddenly
awakes to the fact that she loves
John Graham, understanding herself
too late to check the arrest which
she had planned. The chief, still I'M
suspecting of the trap into which he
has fallen, is carried away, and Stella
is left to make atonement by fighting
for his release.
This proves a difficult task for her.
The national government, insisting
that North Carolina is in a state of

in a federal court. This court ruled
by the fiercest partisan politics, pre-
