Not a Good Thing for This
State

Certain of our correspondents
call US sharply to task for opposi-
ton to the Ku Klux on the ground
that we have confessed that we
know nothing aboutit. With re-
spect, we deny the allegation.
We have seen plenty of Ku klux
literature, containing the pub
lished principles of the order:
what we do not know is the per-
sonnet. We stated distinctly in
the article to which the CORES
pondents take exception that no.
body could object to the ostensi-
BILE aims of the order. What
thoughtful men do not like is its
methods. For that matter, no.
body can object to the ostensible
aims of the soviet government OF
Russia, for it aims at the liberty
of mankind. Itsmethods are what
make it intolerable.
In Dallas, Tex, somebody took
a negro boy, charged with, but
not convicted of the crime of
having had improper relations
with loose-lived white women and
branded the letters, *. X. H.,
on his forehead. Maybe the Ku
Klux didn't do it; but how are
we to know? In any case, it was
detestable crime worse than
the negro's, for it was committed
presumably by white men. If that
had happened in 1868 there might
have been some excuse for it, for
at that time the courts were in
the hands of negroes and carpet
baggers; but now that the ad-
ministration of the law is in the
hands of white men there is not
the slightest excuse for other
white mems taking the law out
of the hands of the regularly
constituted authorities and into
their own.
We repeat, the Ku Klux may
not be guilty of this outrage; but
nevertheless the existence of the
order has been used as a mask
for the criminals; and an order,
no matter how innocent in itself,
that can be used by criminals as
a mask is not a good thing for
this state. Greensboro Daily

KEEPS SAND FROM SHIFTING
Common Sea-Rush Employed With
Good Effect on the Shore OF
Cornwall, England.

James White of Ontario who late
ly asked London newspaper If any
one could suggest remedy for Shift
ing sand-how, in fact, to anchor 1t
has had many replies. The trouble
of drifting sand Is far more common
than one would suppose, and the only
remedy suggested is to plant some
kind of tree or root that VIII take
firm hold and prevent the drifting. On
the banks of the Suez canal 1t was
found that planting various kinds or
tamarisks, mingled with the herbace-
ous plants such as the orach or alta,
was successful. In Denmark the COM
mon bramble has been used. Bengal
fir trees and other trees nave pre-
vented the encroachments Of the des-
ert sands driven by the wind. Those
who have seen the effect in Cornwall
of the tiny, delicate particles of sand
after even one night of wind, changing
the whole aspect of the foreshore, may
be thankful that at the end OF the
Eighteenth century remedy was
found, the common sea-rush called by
Mr.. Hudson "Psamma arenaria," which
on the towens or hillocks, formed by
the sand, grows and spreads and
clothes the yellow hollows and wave
like hills to their SUBMITS with its
pale, sere-looking, gray-green tussocks.
Other naturalists have spoken Of 1t,
Ray among the number, and Halliwell
calls it "the Arundo arenaria of Lin
naeus," or, as some have it, "Calama-
grostis aenaria," which now grows
over the buried village and ancien5

castle of Theodore, king of Cornwall,

In a Mess.

Two miners had never seen golf
played before. They stood watching
a fat unskilled player at work in a
bunker. The sand flew up but the
ball remained. Seven agonizing shots
had been played.
The player made his eighth attempt.
The ball was lobbed up, dropped on
the green and, rolling gently to the pin,
settled in the hole.

the other, He's got deuce of job
