Secret Oath
OF 4th Degree

San Francisco, Aug. 2.-Op-
position to religious prejudice is
the keynote of the Knights OF
Columbus annual convention
opening here today sounded in
the pre-convention address of
Supreme Knight James A. Flaher-
ty. Mr.. Flaherty denounced that
he termed professional purve-
yors of prejudice" whom he
charged with seeking to divide
American citizens into classes and
to create suspicion and distrust,
Mr.. Flaherty's address drew at
tention to the widespread circula-
tion of an oath attributed to the
fourth degree members of the
Knights of Columbus, which was
characterized at vile invention.
This OATH" he declared, lis
impossible and ridiculous on Its
face, but it now is being circula-
ted by millions of copies through
the country bearing the imprint
of the congressional record be-
cause by accident it appeared as
an exhibit in the proceedings OF
congress
For the first time in the his
tory of the Knight of Columbus,
at this convention, we take occa-
sion to ask press and public to
make known as widely as possible
the real obligation taken by all
knights of Columbus: L swear to
support the constitution of the
United States. 1 pledge myself
fully on my duties as a citizen
and to conscientiously perform
such duties entirely in the in
terest of my country and regard
less of all personal consequences.
I pledge myself to do all in my
power to preserve the integrity
and purity Of the ballot and to
promote reverence and respect for
law and order. promise to prae-
tice my religion openly and con-
sistently, but without ostentation,
and to so conduct myself in pub
lie affairs as to reflect nothing
but credit upon our holy church
to the end that she may flourish
and our country prosper to the
greater honor and glory of God.

Coleman Pitches For
Salem

Outclassing the Beavers with
the stick, and equally as good in
the field, but with not as much
speed and headwork on bases, the
Salem Senators held the Portland
club to score of six to four in
one of the best played games of
the season at Oxford Park yester-
day.
The total number of hits made
by the local team was nine while
the Beavers succeeded in getting
eight from their own pitcher, Cole
man, who took the mound for Sa--
lem. McKenna's home run in the
first inning and Miller's in the
seventh was the cause of young
Quisen berry being taken out of
the box and substituted for Ross.

hit while the whole team made

the entire boat

Boston, Aug. 2. - Song and
story are wrong. Captain Kidd
was not a pirate and his tabled
treasure does not exist. Privat-
eersman he was, but of good re-
pute. His hanging as pirate and
murderer on Execution Dock at
London In 1901 was to satisfy the
political exigencies of the time.
These are the findings of John
II. Edmonds, state archivist for
Massachusetts,, as announced in a
lecture at the Old South meeting
house. Archivist Edmonds was
discussing Lord Bellomont and
the Pirates"
Bellomont, he said, was APP
pointed governor of New England
in 1896 with a special mission to
suppress piracy.
Before leaving England" Mr..
Edmonds contended, "he agreed
with Captain William Kidd, pri-
vateersman OF good repute from
New York, to proceed against pi-
rates in ship called the Adven-
ture Galley, on no capture no
pay basis. The adventurers in
cluded Captain Kidd, Robert Liv-
ingstoh, Lord Chancellor Somers,
the Earl of oxford (first lord of
the admiralty the Earl of Rom
ney and the Duke OF Shrewsbury
(secretaries of state.) Bellamont
and the straw men, to whom the
kings grant of treasure was lat
er made, did not contribute a
cent"
"on September G. 1896, with a
crazy vessel and a crazler crew
Captain Kidd proceeded on his
mission" the archivist said. He
picked up several pirates includ-
ing "a Moorish ship of 200 tons
and a Bengal merchant man Of

MOVEMENT WAS STARTED
TO CUT OFF OWL PAS
SENGER SERVICE
CHAMBER PROTESTS
Conference Held With Superin-
tendent of Transportation
Erwin at the Chamber of
Commerce Wednesday.

The merit and value of the Cham
Der of Commerce to Columbus was
emphasized last Wednesday wher
protests of the organization against
the proposed suspension of the ow
train service between Columbus anc
Artesia proved successful.
Mr.. c. E. Erwin, general superin-
tendent of transportation 81 the Mo-
bile and Ohio railroad met with mem
bers of the Chamber of Commerce
Wednesday afternoon and laid before
them the proposition of cutting Oft
the Owl service.
His proposal met with instant and
vigorous protest on the part OF the
Chamber of Commerce. The Owl ser
vice, passenger, freight, mail atld ex-
press, was pointed out to him as
vital to this city, and it was shown
that to suspend the service would abb
solutely cripple and isolate this city
from the rest of the world.
After extended discussion Mr.. En-
win stated that he regarded the
Chamber of Commerce as the heart,
soul and body Of this community
through which it expressed its SEN
timent and thought and that in view
of the strong opposition of the Cham
ber to the cutting off of the service
the plan would be abandoned.
This action by Mr.. Erwin was the
strongest recognition that has ever
come to the Chamber of Commerce of
this city, and it puts the organizaticn
in the forefront in representing and
conserving and protecting the interest
of this community.

locating him fos twelee safeties. He
worked steady all through the game,
but he got little encouragement from

ragged at times.
