The Modern Ku Klux Klan
CONTINUED from Page one.)

In the business of fraternal So
cietv under the name and style of
"Knights Of the Ku Klux Klan,
As matter of fact the propaga-
tion of the movement goes forward
under the name and title of Tn
visible Empire, Knights of the Ku
Klux Klan, Inc" The use of the
words Invisible Empire" in con-
nection with the authorized and le-
gal title of the organization is an
ultra wires act without the sanction
of the Georgia law under which the
society is operating.
The following copy of the appli-
cation for charter membership il
lustrates this point:
"To his Majesty, the Imperial
Wizard, Emperor Of the Invisible
Empire, Knights of the Ku Klux
Khan (Inc.):

true and loyal citizen Of the Unit

Gentle person of temperate habits
sound in mind, and believer in

acy, the practice of an honorable

pure Americanism," do voluntar-
lily most respectfully, seriously and
unselfishly petition you to citizen

This is the standard form for ap-
plication for citizenship" and sew
eral hundred such applications,
properly signed, have come under
my personal observation. It is dis
tinctly request to be "naturaliz-
ed" as a "citizen" of the "Invis-
ible Empire" Knights of the Ku
Klux Klan, and not an application
for membership in an order known
as the knights of the Ku Klux
Klan" by itself.

citizens who are my supporters to
contribute to a fund that will in
sure fair count of the legal votes
of the people actually cast in the
ballot boxes. Should those private
citizens actually pay for expenses
of the governor to retain office
on what is apparently false re-
turn obtained through the efforts
of the state machine?
Wants Ballots Counted.
What must the good people of
the state think of Mr.. Olcott, who,
after enlisting an army of state
employees, tax eaters, to work for
his personal pre-primary cam
paign at the expense of the tax
payers Of the state, and discharge
such of those employees as did not
slavishly adhere to his personal
political machine methods, as in
the cases of Gates, Ellsworth and
others, the result of which was SO
disgusting as to cause that splen-
did citizen, Bert Anderson, to re-
sign from the state game commits
sion; who after lis, 900 votes have
been cast for the nomination for
governor claims that nomination
by but 521; who declares himself
willing to recount, yet fights on
every technical ground a suit in
the court to obtain such recount ;
and who, when specific allegations
of wrong are listed in about one
third Of the precincts to show a
plurality for Hall of over 1000
votes has been cast, still whimpers
that such conditions do not indi-
cate fraud or tinge of fraud?"
Don't they?
Can the beneficiary of such a
state machine of office holders
complain when private citizens
combine to make apparent the
truth and to count the legal bal
lots actually cast in the ballot
boxes? If Mr. Olcott viii spend
part Of the energy to help count
the ballots that he expends to con
test the opportunity to look at
them, we would soon know
what the actual situation in those
ballot boxes is. We both claim
the nomination on the basis of the
ballots cast; why Is not the most
expeditions way to settle this con-
test the prompt and unopposed
opening of the boxes and counting
of the ballots?

The featured played.
Makombe, dread ruler of a vast
tract of darkest Africa, opposes
The passage of a venturesome band
Of white explorers seeking the
song lost city of Ophir. But they,
foreseeing Just such an emergency
are prepared, for they have
brought with them gifts to glad
den the heart of the most barbar-
ous savage. And SO it came to
pass that Makombe, though stub
oornly refusing to grant passage
10 the travellers, has his heart
sladdened by gifts Of top hat. a
gaudy umbrella, some gloves and
other articles of adornment. The
effect is miraculous and had they
been long lost brothers Makombe
could not have greeted the travel
ers more affeetionately.
This incident provides a wealth
of valuable information as to the
habits and customs of the dwelIers
OF Central Africa, for the action
has been fully and faithfully con-
led from actual accounts of life in
that quarter of the world, while
the participants in the picture are
genuine African natives from the
land where King Makombe is re-
puted to have held sway.

diamond. As II was not customary
to measure in yards Oe feet to
any extent In those days, Cart.
wright AMPLY stepped on thirty

Little did he or his associates
realize that the distance of ninety

When Babe Ruth and Bob Meusei
went transforming in 1921 and were
suspended by Commissioner Lands, the
sob chorus took up the cause Of the
poor. downtrodden ball players and be-
moaned the fact that the young men
were not permitted to do as they pleased
on their own time. Heydler and John
son warned that ii would prove bad
medicine IL ball players were given the
privilege of making their dates without
some control from the clubs.
Some owners thought the players
should be allowed to make what they
could and others feared a mistake had
been made in the Ruth and Meusel
anair. Now there is yowl. Three and
possibly four teams have been playing
