LAST OF ORIGINAL
-KU KLUX KHAN
}. B. KENNEDY PASSES AWAY AT
LAWRENcEBURG LAST
WEEK.

PULASKI, Tenn, Feb. 20 The
death of John B. Kennedy, who died
at Lawrenceburg a few days ago, re
moves the last of the original band
that organized the first Ku KluS
klann, the wonderful Southern patri
otto organization that had it's begin
ming at Pulaski with this little band
of six and that spread, when its
growth began, with marvellous rapid
ty over the entire South, having in
the end membership up into the
hundreds of thousands and accom-.
plishing for the South a work that no
other method on earth could have &C.
complished, undoubtedly saving Dixie
Land from period of error and law
lessness and degradation that might
not have had an equal in the entire
world AS it is well known the mar
velous Ku Klux organization had its
beginning here in Pulaski, but its
originators had not the faintest idea
that it would grow to be the great
organization that it became.
John Lester, Cal Jones, Frank Nc.
Cord. Jim Crow and John Kennedy
were the six young men who organic.
ed the first Ku Klux Khan They
were all young men and in a town the
size of Pulaski just after the war and
especially after the trying period
through which this section had Just
passed, they found time hanging
heavily upon their hands during the
evenings and for their own amuse-
ment and entertainment organized
the first Ku Klux Khan. The great
thing accomplished later by the Ku
Klux Khan was probably not even
given thought when these six young
men first organized, but came after
wards and as the membership here
grew and other bands were organic

BILLS WIN TO
ENFORCE LAW
FIRST SkiRMlSH TO GIVE GOV
ERNoR MORE POWER IN
THE HOUSE.

NASHVILLE. Feb. 2O.-By a vote
OF "a to 80 the house yesterday refus.
ed the re-refer to the judiciary com.
mittee the faur law-enforcement bills
recommended by that committee for
passage, with a minority report from
Chairman Bejach for rejection The
motion to re-refer was made by Mr..
Myers, OF Chattanooga, Immediately
upon the making of the report by the
CHAIRMAN, and was made upon the
grounds that the bills had been act.
ed upon by the committee in a hasty
manner and without due considera.
ton for thei" opponents.
Several points of order were rails
ed upon the entire proposition to re-
refer, but as the speaker ruled them
all out of order, the matter went to a
clear cut vote on a motion to label,
which was carried. Among the objec-
ions raised to preference by Mr..
Bryant, Mr. Stone, of Lincoln, Mr..
Miller, OF Marshall, who spoke against
the motion, We're the fact that the
bills had been acted upon at regu-
air meeting of the committee: had
been pending for three weeks with
ample opportunity for their opponents
TO call them up in the committee;
and that preference only meant
delay as the bills would come up for
a fight on the floor of the house.

COUNTY BOARD TO
NAME THE DISTRICT
ROAD SUPERVISION
AN IMPORTANT CHANGE TO BE
MADE IN EXIST NC HIGH
WAY LAW.
BILL IN The LEGISLATURE
Rate of Comutation to Be Reduced
From One Dollar to Sixty Cents
Per Day-Control Over Bridges Is
Also Given.

There will be number of impor.
tant changes made in the road law of
Maury county, if the bill introduced
by the Maury delegation is the legis.
lature is passed. The bill continues
the workhouse commission as the
road commission and in general fol.
lows the lines of the existing system
However, several amendments ma.
terially Strengthening the existing
plan are enacted.
One of the chief changes in the law
is that hereafter the district road
commissioners will be elected by the
county commissioner instead of by
the county court which heretofore
has been the practice In other
words, under the proposed plan, the
entire management of the roads of
the county will be vested in the coun-
ty commission. There will be no d.
vision or conflict of authority, a
change that should do much for the
betterment of the system
Another vital change in the system
is that hereafter the Communication
rate will be sixty cents per day in
stead of S. as it now stands. This
means cash road tax of So instead
of S. 1t is believed that this amend
ment will tend to the encouragement
of Communication, giving the road au-
thorities more money and less free
labor to expend in the upkeep OF the
roads.
The bill also gives to the county
commission more authority over the
bridges of the county 1t is made the
duty of the county commission TO rec
ommend to the county court the cree
ton of bridges, to investigate and To-
cate sites, etc. 1t is believed that
this will tend to economy in the man
agement of the bridges of the county.
The new law is more exhaustive
measure than the old and it is believ-
ed that it will remedy many defects
in the existing law.

ROBINSON SIGNS
PROHIBITION BILL
REQUIRES SALOON KEEPERS TO
OBTAIN CONSENT OF MAJOR
iTY OF WHITES.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark, Feb. 20
Gov. Robinson today signed bill
passed several days ago, which virtu-
ally makes Arkansas a dry state. In
explaining his act the governor made
the following statement:
Under the present law any adult
inhabtant residing within the district
may sign a petition against the sale
of liquor there. Under the new act
white adults only may sign, but the
burden is shifted from those oEpes-
ing the sale of liquor to those favor
ing, who must secure majority OF
white adult signatures petitioning for
license, before license can be grant
ed.
voted wet. The manifest purpose OF
the act is to increase the difficulty in
procuring licenses, and it's effect will
prevent the sale of liquor in some
places where it is now sold. 1t does
not purport to be state wide prohi-
bition measure, as under it liquor can
be sold in any incorporated town in
a wet county. In my campaign for
governor, in almost every speech de.
livered, ] stated I favored local OPP
ton against state wide prohibition,
but also stated, even before the state
wide prohibition was submitted and
rejected by the people, if state wide
prohibition bill passed l would sign
It."

many whisky cases when they : t
