MedfOrd
First Section of
Oregon Organized and
Sees Klan
With Practices at
Test Public Sentiment
AT Worst
By Harry N. Grain.

Medford and jackson county
have felt the Ku Klux Khan at its
worst, probably because this sec
ton of the state experienced the
influx of nightshirt brigade first
and it was made the testing
ground of public sentiment In
Oregon by the Kluxers. The policy
Of the masked forces here appear
ed to be one of determining how
far they could go in trifling with
constituted authority and public
sentiment.
In the short space of sixteen
months since L. l. Powell, now
king kleagle of Oregon, dropped
off a northbound train from Cali
fornia in Medford and organized
the nucleus from which the pres
ent khan in that section of the
state has grown, Jackson county
has been transformed from a
peaceful, harmonious community
pulling strongly together for the
common good of their district into
a neighborhood of sharp division
and bitter strife along both religi-
GUS and political lines.

Started Among Masons.

The khan in Medford was or
ganized at meeting of 80 men,
most Of them Masons, by Powell
one night in January, 1921. The
meeting had been secretly called
and it was not until they were as
sembled that the men knew the
purpose of the gathering. Powell,
placed the proposal to organize a
kan before them, declaring that
the X. X. K. was dedicated to the
separation of church and state,
white supremacy, one hundred per
cent Americanism and law and or
der. The prospects were told that
50 members were needed to secure
charter, but that khan officials
Of the Pacific coast domain would
like to see a lodge Of 400 or 500
members organized at Medford. To
this suggestion the prospects OBJ
jected, declaring themselves in
favor Of a smaller lodge selecting
its members with care and some

To Dry Peaches: Cut them in halves.

Dry from four to six hours in your
