Truth is at heart intoerant, knowing itself, with
 fierce certainty to be unspeakaby better than erroy
 In most things know ourselves ignorant, child facing mysteries so in most things we should be tolerant and liberal But in the few things that we know through and through it behooves be hard nails On question of the trinity the miracles let us argue calmly-and endlessly; but on question of decency versus indecency cruelty versus kindness, 1t is word and blow.
 Hence, it is for every modern soul, who feels thf< strong truths of civilization coursing through hi5 thought to stand for them, against all corners. He who has the truth is salt. Error is putrefaction Where wrong prevails in the social organism let the man of salt thrust himself as his duty to the universe Certain main points of decay may be mentioned; certain places where is fragrant fragrant and sfng First it is the duty of every child of light shine out against the ancient world fraud and inherited curse of militarism Wherever the harpy of war lust shows itself he ought to take shot at it.
 Again, every man of salt and health should do his utmost break down caste wherever he finds it. What system organization custom impedes the free rise and scope of the individual is rotting point All select classes aristocraces plutocrace bureaucrace proletarats and whatever schemes there may be for controlling the people the wealth of labor of the peo pie by set of persons who chosen by any other than the people, and who not directly responsible to the people, are germ centres of tyranny and event. ually always of injustice and cruelty.
 All that devious thing call graft is also breed ing spot of social disease. In whatever mask it ap- pears, however polished honored and disguised wher the fatal symptom of public office for per- sonal gain he ought to denounce and oppose it. =. In the nearer affairs of life may safely lay down the rule that whatever threatens the integrity and happiness of the home life, where man, woman, and their children gathered in the family the old est and best institution earth, is foul Whatever makes good woman blush is septic Whatever tends to make little children unhappy is poison. Whatever gospel takes the nerve out of and dscourages them in its general effect is unjustifabe and deprave& Also, whatever whoever loves and clings to lie, to anything that he knows to be untrue pregnant with trouble and boliquity. The only healthful pure, sound, stanch, sefclean- ing and exceedingly good and green growing thing der heaven in heaven, among men or among angels, is-the truth.

The K. K. K.

Some colored citizens of Phoenix have inquired with apprehension regarding the object of a local circle of Ku-Kiux Klan of which story was lately printed by The Republican. They have in- qured whether its objects similar those of the Ku Klux Klan which fourished in south for some years after 1865 We pleased to say from such meager information has been afforded that they are not It is not directed against any race. As understand. chief aim is to enforce obedience to the laws and to discourage that spirit anti-Amer icanism which and then finds expression to the good; as to it's methods we cannot speak until we have them put into operation
 The Ku- Kux originally an organization of young men for mutual pleasure and amusement In the reconstruction period it directed against the carpet-bag government of the south and was used to keep in subjection negroes who it was charged were melted encouraged by carpet baggers out rages against the whites. That it went much farther than that and that its members sometimes resorted to oppression and wanton murder be doubted
 It finally suppressed about 1876 Later in different parts the country various organizations calling themselves Ku-Klux Klan and arrayed in the we'll known regalia of the K. K K were formed for the redress of local grievances for which there seemed to be adequate legal remedies Thus had the night riders of Kentucky in the tobacco troubles of few years ago the punish ment of growers who refused enter into what we may call involuntary cooperative marketing ar rangement.
 Though the Ku-Klux Klan is generally the result of conditions which should not exist the ployed not always within the law.
 As to Klux Kan. little as we know about it. we think may give assurance that no good American citizen whatever his color, need be apprehensive that he win be disturbed.

quite as we'll as June. but custom Is custom Just as the American public has been educated to leave off heavy flannels in May. take on hay fever in August. and oysters in September. SO 1t has been educated up to taking brides in June.
 What started the idea Is a mystery. Probably it was a dull month with ministers. or perhaps the fact that the newspapers have more room for display photographs of bridal parties in June had something to do with it. Or maybe 1t was just due to the silly season.
 Al any rate it's here and the brides and glooms arc walking down the aisles of the land trying to keep step 10 Mendelshohn's Battle Hymn of the Republic.

 Abundant Precedent
 In fact. there Is ancsent precedent for regulating almost anything a man may do. The sumptuary laws sur vived into the Middle Ages and the regulation Of dress. funerals. eating and drinking are all to be found there. In medieval Japan this class of iegis- iation attained a wealth of detail new CT seen anywhere else. The amount a man could spend on a toy for his child was a matter of strict regula- ton.
 In Japan this complete subserv- fence of the individual to the state is still seen. although sne young Jap anese are getting restless under it.
