AFTER KU KLUX KHAN.
"Anti" Organization Is After White
Robed Hosts.

Anti Org1nI=atlon is NIteT WHI'e
Robed Hosts.
In tho days of the pioneer in the
great Southwest they fought prairie
fires with fire, sa-s a Tulsa, Okla, dis
patch.
Today, in Texas and oklahoma, the
Er Kiux Klau is lacc to face with an
AMI" organization.
TAe knights of the Visible Empire
are gathering strength TO oppose the
white shrouded host--the knights of
the invisible realm. The Southwest is
splitting into two factions-the khan
and anti-klan.
Within the last few months the Ku
!ilux Klan has shown its strength. 1t
anpcars to exist in every community.
In the big. modern. fast growing cities
OF the Southwest it numbers thou
sands of it's Invisible empire" This
has bceIi proved by paradcs and dem
onstrations in such cities as Dallas,
Fort Worth, Beaumont, Waco, Oklaho-
ma City. Tulsa an1oth places.
Here, only a few weeks ago, nearly
5000 hooded figures passed through
the streets. The parade was fifteen
blocks in length. AT its head masked
riders bore aloft the emblem Of the
khan. Overhead an airplane circled
bearing flaming cross.
All Of these demonstrations except
the one ut Waco, have been peaceful.
And to the credit of the lilan are num-
bcrlcss good deeds, in which the klans-
me.l have been angels of mercy, as
sisting the poor and worth,' by acts of
charity.
ncnts of the klansmen point to the acts
of violence which have swept Oklaho-
ma and Texas. II is not charged that
the khan had any part in the ilogGings.
tar parties" and seizures in which
citizens have been dragged from their
homes and after suffering acts of vio-
lence, have been turned loose with
warning to pack up and leave"
But ii is charged that the existence
of the khan has encouraged masked
riders of the night to take the law into
their own hands and Hloaking their
identity behind hooded masks, admin
ister summary Justice to citizens class
ed as "law breakers and undesira-
bleS."
1t is with these masked riders who
have taken the law into their own
hands, that the knights of the Visible

new organization, incorporated in Ok
lahoma, believes that all laws should
be enforced by constituted authority
and that the sacred right of trial by
jury should not be denied any man, no
matter hbw serious his transgression
under tho law.
The new organization is reported to
be growing fast. Whether it will reach
the strength necessary to successfully
oppose the khan remains to be seen:
The klan has grown tremendously.
ana its issues have become so acute
that one candidates for the United
States senate from Texas is campaign
ing on Ku KluX platform. And all
efforts up to the present to curtail the
klan's activities have met with failure.

strength.
