AN UNAMERIcAN INSTITUTION.

In spite OF all the adverse comment that has
BEEN made the Ku Klux Khan seems to be growing
rapidly. Ibis organization is, Of course, not the
one.Wiich came into prominence shortly after the
civil war. That society was disbanded long ago.
lheyyPresent organization is a new creation, framed
on lines similar to the old one, and using the same
methods. 1t is secret and oath bound. 1t uses re-
gala similar to the old Khan regalia. It processes
to be devoted to the building Of American ideals,
and all its purposes which appeal to public, view are
P~ralseworthy. Nevertheless, it 81 is an organization
which ought to be suppressed, if not by law, by the
good sense OF the American people.
1T is quite possible for those of the present day,
at not to appreciate fully, at least to understand in
some measure the conditions which prompted south
ern men OF the middle Of the last century to organ
lze the Ku Klux Khan. In many sections the white
population was greatly outnumbered by the co1ored.
The blacks were ignorant, and through their own
ignorance and the teaching of unwise %agitators,
they had acquired lot of wild and dangerous no
tions. They had been told that when slavery was
abolished they would not need to work, but might
take possession of the property held BY their for
rner masters and thenceforward live lives of ease.
10 these foolish notions was added the criminality
OF many OF the colored people. White people in
many sections were unsafe, and their families lived
IN constant fear of negro violence.
Under these circumstances a secret organiza-
lion was created tor the primary purpose of keeping
a turbulent population in order. The method en-
ployed was that OF preying on the fears, chiefly the
superst1t1ous fears, of the uncultured ex-slayes. The
plan was quite effective. But the character of the
organization was such that, regardless of the excel
lent intentions of its founders and original members.
IT soon became a stencil and an abomination. Ruff
fans Of every description adopted the secret meth
odssof the Klan for their own base purposes, and,
often wrongly. and perhaps sometimes rightly, the
klan was charged with every crime of secret vio-
lence that was perpetrated. The existence of such
an organization was seen to be a menace to the ter
ritory in whichsit Aourished, and stringent legisla-
ton was enacted against all such societies by con
gress. The Khan disbanded, but the spirit which
It's secret methods fomented persisted, and ever
since there have been sporadic instances Of the en-
ployment of its secret tactics and its DISCUSSES for
the commission of acts of violence.
The new Klan may have been. well intended,
but II has no place in the United States. The exist
ence OF this or any similar society cannot be too
strongly condemned.

DEALING WITH THE RED RIVER.

In his statement concerning the policy to be
pursued with reference to the Red river Congress
man Burtness supplies valuable information and
suggests a course which Seems to be we'll consider
ed.
Mr.. Burtness agrees with The Herald that the
Red river is not in fact a %navigable stream, and that
there is not the renotest prospect that it will ever
be made so. But, being technically navigable, the
stream is controlled by congress, actual control be-
ing vested in the war department.. Having juris-
diction over the river, congress has committed itself
IN a way to the development of projects for the con-
troll OF Hood waters on this river and its tributaries,
and Mr.. Burtness believes, probably with good rea-
son, that effort in this territory should be directed
to the work of realizing something tangible from
these projects, which would be abandoned, so far
as the federal government is concerned.
1t is a matter of common knowledge, of course,
that congress, or its agent, the war department.,
over streams technically held to be navigable. But
It is also a fact that in the past the tendency has
been to emphasize very strongly the importance Of
the movable bridge. The bridges at Grand Forks
were built at a time when the river was actually
used for purposes of navigation and when there
seemed to be a possibility that this use would be in
creased. But long since then we have seen the
bridges at Oslo and Drayton built, and there pro-
vision was made for the battleship or the ocean
liner
The great trouble is that the war department
has locked at everything through military spec
tacles. In all matters relating to civil affairs It has
been stubborn and unprogressive. It issin order
That this incubus may be removed that The Herald
has urged that effort be made to have the river de-
tlarcd n~on-nayigable. If the department can Be
Induced to look at the subject in a rational manner.
HI is a matter OF indifference whether the stream is
listed as nayigable or not.

A STRONG

Assuming the acceptance Of all Of the appoin-
tees, the American delegation to the confer
ence on reduction of armament has been completed
by the addition of the names Of Elihu Root and Os-
car w. Underwood to those already announced.I If
these two men accept, the delegation will consist of
Secretary Hughes, Senator Lodge. and Messrs. Root
and Underwood. Eacro Of the countries represented
will have four delegates, or twenty in all, except
that on occasions where Far Eastern questions are

Il is difficult to see how better selections could
have been made. Secretary Hughes is the head OF

 Immediately four bales were sub scribed, one by the Western States Securities company. and one each by the Southwest Cotton company. the Mccall Cotton and Oil company and the Dwight B.
