subscribers on the North Shore. Last
Thursday evening a large meeting
was held in Waukegan, Illinois, I'M

that will center about Waukegan.
The situation there is about the

had the situation brought forcibly

GRAND JURY FINDS TEXAS
SHERIFF IS KLANSMAN

AUSTIN, Texas, Nov. l9.-Words
were not minced in the report filed
by the Travis County grand jury
which Investigated the Ku Klux Klan
upon special charge given by District
Judge James R. Hamilton. The khan
is condemned from a legal standpoint
and otherwise.
A part of the report is that the
sheriff of Travis County, w. D. Mil
Ter, admitted being a member OF the
khan and paid $1,000 as an entrance
fee, and that the police commissioner
of Austin, chief of police and a city
detective who investigated the only
tarring and feathering party in Austin
ayailed themselves of their constitu-
tional right and refused to tell the
grand jury whether they were MEM
bers OF the khan or not No action re-
suited from the tarring and feathering.
No indictments were returned, but
the report states a secret list OF
names was obtained of persons sup
posed to be members of the khan.
These are not made part OF the report
because of the danger of assassina-
ton through revenge" says the grand
jury. 1t says that a mistake might
occur and "the very man wrongfully
named be cut down"
