SEEKING THE REMOVAL or A
SHERIFF

Because of his determined efforts
to bring them to punishment for
numerous lawless acts, the Daytona
Journal reports that the chapter Of
the Ku Klux KIan, with headquarters
there, has appointed a committee to
call on the governor and demand the
removal OF the sheriff; and the Journal
further says member of the organi-
zation will be recommended to Govern
or Hardee as the successor of Sheriff
Lee Morris, if he is removed The
Journal has been vigorously oppos-
ing the Ku klux Klan for months
past Its editor has been threatened
many times, and a party of the mask
ed outlaws called at his home one
night, probably with the purpose of
getting him. but he is not cowed
and keeps up the fight. The organi-
zation is charged with numerous and
serious crimes on the east coast
even murder: and there is every prob
ability that the charges are true.
It is, Of course, not probable that
Governor Hardee viii accede to the
demands of the organization TO re-
move the sheriff The governor, doubt
less, is fully advised.
It is understood to be the plan of
the Ku Klux to induce sheriffs and
chiefs Of police to join their organi-
zation wherever it is possible, and
thus secure immunity from interfer-
ence. No man can honestly and eff
ciently discharge the duties Of either
position and hold membership in such
an organization Tampa Times.

Glasses Organizations That Meet ia
Secret by Light of 8onfires and
Attempts to Deprive Citizens
of Their Rights as
BoIshevists

A special from New York says that
Judge William B. Sheppard. of Flor
ida, sitting in federal district court
told the federal grand jury which
adopted the power and authority to
Investigate secret treaties which are
reported to be interfering with the
constitutional rights of citizens.
Any organization, he said, which
holds its meetings by the light of bon
fires in secret places and the members
of which wear white suits and masks
which attempt to prevent orderly
citizens from the enjoyment of their
constitutional rights, freedom Of
speech, conscience and right of trial
by jury is a proper subject for in
vestigation by grand jury. That is
because such behavior on the part of
a secret society is a conspiracy and
the law can be brought to bear upon
them
Continuing his charge, Judge Shep-
pard. said in part:
There is law here that can be
brought TO bear upon any group Of
people or secret organization which
administers justice in the woods.
1T is not within the province Of
secret societies to say who is or is
not a desirable citizen When they, by
a demonstration Of power. seek to
prevent others from the enjoyment of
their constitutional rights, they are
amendable to prosecution in the fed
eral courts through presentment or
indictment by the grand jury"
Judge Sheppard remarked that. ac-
cording to newspaper reports, there
is a certain organization now in ex-
istence, the members of which are
undertaking to censor the conduct of
their fellow citizens
When You get to that state of af-
fairs, one may well ask what differ
ence there is between the United
States and bolshevism in Russia" he
