PIPEST0NE PASTOR

Writer of Fake Letter FOrges Klan
Signature-MaliciOu Document
F.. Attracts Attention of Post

Pipestone, Minn.-Another case o.
forgery has just been reported ii
which a Pipestone party signs Ku
Klux Klan to a fake letter sent to ar
enemy of bootleggers and booze.
This letter, which was sent through
the mail, has been reported, and op-
eratives are at work tracing the
sender.
In this letter, written by one not
too well versed in the English lang
mage, an abusive tone was taken,
charging this leader with manufac-
turing liquor himself and stating that
if he did not discontinue his talk
against them, the poison manufac-
turers, they would run him out of
town. This letter was signed with
the letters K. K. K. Such contempt
ible practices must and will be stop
ped. AS far as we know, this man
(not Klansman) is one of the high
est type, leader in one of Pipe
stones churches; and the people of
Pipestone should not allow such
contemplate things to continue.
The Pipestone xxx has stood a
lot of this kind of cowardly work by
anti-Klan forces, without saying
much; but this last letter was the
"straw that broke the camel's back"
We are out after a hide, and we are
going to get it. We will prosecute
to the fullest extent of the law.
To the party who sent this letter,
let us say that now is good time
to make clean breast of this matter
and apologize to the man whose
character they tried to besmirch.
Remember-anyone receiving such
letters has the backing of the Klan.

Charity Circus at Baltimore Big Sue
cess in Spite Of ALI Opposition


Baltimore, Md.-The Klan circus
for the benefit of the charity fund
was held here December 8 to Is in
Hazazer's hall, despite the fact that
certain officials, spurred on by pro-
aliens, attempted to thwart the plans
of the Klansmen by refusing them
the use of the FORTH Regiment Ar
mory at the last t,oment before the
circus was scheduled to be held.
All arrangements for the circus
had been made, aInouncements post
ed, when members of the Maryland
Armory commission, composed of
Governor Albert c.. Richie, Adjutant
General Rockford, and Comptroller
Gerdy, declared the Armory could
not be used by the Ku Klux Klan for
a charity fund circus.
A legal battle is in progress to de-
termine the extent of the authority
of the Armory commission in such a
matter, but the Klan circus was not
postponed because of it. The circus
was crowded every evening, and a
large sum was realized, the money to
be devoted to the philanthropic prof.
ects of the Klan Of Baltimore.
Opposition to the Klan charity cir
Gus was raised by Archbishop Cur
ley. Failure to stop the circus dis
gruntled the archbishop and his fol-
lowers because they had openly boast
ed that the show would not be held.
Baltimore is the seat of Catholicism
in Maryland.

Washington, D. C.-The protest
papers against the election of Sen
ator Mayfeld Of Texas, were laid be.
fore the Senate yesterday by Senator
Cummins, president pro tempore
The case was referred to the Senate
committee on privileges and elections
Washington, D. C.-Senator Earle
B. Mayfield, Democrat of Texas, has
broken the silence he has maintained
since he assumed Office, and an.
nounced definitely that he is prepared
to fight any attempt to oust him.
81 am here" Senator Mayfield as
serted. 81 was duly and legally
elected senator from Texas by a ma
jority of $4,000 votes. No move is
up to me now. I intend to continue
to serve, to the best of my ability,
the interests of the people who elect
ed me.
81 filed a detailed statement of my
campaign expenses with the secre-
tary of state of Texas according to
law" Senator Mayfeld said. "That
record will speak for ITSELF"
Strong Lobby Present e..
Senator Mayfield refused to dis
cuss any details of the battle which
is brewing behind the scenes in the
Senate to unseat him. His oppo-
nents in Texas have sent a delega-
tion of lawyers, politicians and prop
agandists to Washington to under
take the fight. They have rented
headquarters in a Washington hotel
where daily conferences are, held.
There are a few Republicans mixed
up in the scrap as well as Texas
Democrats.
The filing of the protest against
Mayfield with the privileges and elec-
tions committee of the Senate will be
the signal for an open clash in the
Senate.
The first move in the fight to oust
Mayfeld was made in the closing
days of the last session, nearly q
year ago, when formal protest was
filed with the secretary Of the Senate.
The protest was based primarily on
charges that Mayfeld had spent more
than the $4,000 permitted under the
law and that the Ku Klux Klan had
provided the money. ..
Senator Mayfield asserts that in
more than 130 campaign speeches in
Texas he did not once mention OF
recognize the Klan. It is asserted
that Ferguson is the man who raised
the Klan issue. -...... ....... -

Now Tammany Halls Tool After the
GOvernOrship Of New York

New York.-Tammany Hall has its
grip on Theodore Roosevelt. It is
undenied here that he will be the
candidate of that Catholic political
organization for governor of this
state.
His candidacy and exposure of po-
litical alignments is more proof that
Tammany Hall will try to force Al
cohol Smith down the necks of the
Democratic party at the presidential
convention.
In the face Of an opposition that
already is solid against Smith, Tam
many will make a vain fight to place
him in nomination. Failing in this
it is figured he will make good trad.
ing stock for a compromise candi-
date.
In the meantime Roosevelt will be
groomed to take. Smiths place in the
governors chair so that Tammany
will not lose its hold on the state if
it is unable to get Catholic strangle-
hold on the nation. g.: .,r
Roosevelt, q Protestant, is made
the tool. ...

Minneapolis.-Roman Catholics Of
this city are freely dispensing theil
threats of the festive "boycott" to al
Protestant merchants who decline tt
stand and deliver contributions to the
many Roman Catholic bazaars anc
other contrivances by which they en-.
deavor to bring Protestant financial
support to the church. From one tc
three canvasses of every business dis
trict is made and merchants are tolG
point blank on refusal to contribute
that they will be boycotted.
The people, however, are respond.
ing to the situation in a way that the
K. C.'s have not counted upon. When
ever it becomes known that a mer-
chant is under the ban of the church
Protestants are warned with the re-
suit that their patronage usually
tounterbalances the loss of Catholic
business to such an extent that in
creased rather than decreased busi-
ness results.
Gambling Devices.
The numerous events and schemes
to bring money into the church's cof-
fers has become such a nuisance as
to become a public scandal.
A careful estimate of the revenue
derived from the fairs, bazaars,
games of chance contrary to law, and
other money-getting enterprises fos-
tered by the church officials, indicates
that not less than $175,00O has been
gathered in, the larger part of which,
it is said, was contributed by Pro-
testants.
Investigation Looms.
1t is understood the use of the Gov
-ernment mails to advance schemes
regarded as unlawful, has attracte,
the attention of the postal authori-
ties, and as a result thereof there
may result an investigation which is
not likely to rebound to the credit
of the church authorities.
Their tacit consent to irregularities
may be assumed, otherwise laymen of
the Catholic church would not have
the temerity to do things contrary to
|priestly will. . ....nr.s 49,.
