XXX
Meeting on November 10 to Be Ad-
dressed by Nations Leading
Speakers s-Oficials to Attend
xxx

Fort Wayne, Ind.-Never before in
the history of Klandom will parade
have been held such as that which is
being planned for this city on Nevem-
ber 10, when the hosts of Klandom
meet in this city at the gigantic Ku
Klux Klan Klonvocation scheduled
for that day. Plahs for the huge
parade are now we'll under way as
we'll as the plans for the rest of the
program.
Tens of thousands of Klansmen will
be in line and the procession will
hold many features. Scores of bands,
drum and fife corps and floats will
take part in the parade which will be
the outstanding feature of the day.
The line of march has not been def
nitely settled upon as yet. All the
prominent Klansmen in the United
States will be a part of the giant pro-
cession.
Large Delegations
The event, which will last all day
and long into the night, will be a
monstrous affair and reports from
all points tell of large delegations
already having been formed. Thou
sands upon thousands of individual
Klansmen have arranged to be in
Fort Wayne on that day. While it
was first planned for Indiana Klans-
men in celebration of Indiana having
attained one-half million chartered
members, and having set a goal for
100000, it is now seen that Klans-
men from the surrounding states will
be present.
From each of the states bordering
Indiana word has come that Klans-
men from there will be at the Klon-
vocation. Michigan, Kentucky, Illi-
nois and Ohio will be represented.
Hardly had the word gone out that
the great meeting was to be held on
Armistice day, which will be cele-
brated on November 10 this year, ow-
ing to the fact that the eleventh falls
on Sunday, than Klansmen from other
states notified of heir intention of at
tending.
Among the more prominent Klans-
men of the nation who will attend
the celebration are "The Old Man."
The Imperial Wizard, DR.. H. w. Ev-
an and Grand Dragons from many
points. All the Indiana Klan state
officials will be in attendance also.
Many Features For Day
Included in the list of speakers
for the day are some of the country's
best known patriotic speakers. The
best of everything will be had for the
occasion and while the parade will
prove the great feature of the day,
there will be many other features in
cluded in the days program.
Many committees are hard at work
carrying out plans for the demonstra-
tion. Among them are committees
which will perfect parking arrange
ments and provide space for the thou
sands of Klansmen who will motor to
the event.

mIsFlT HAS ENOUGH OF OKLAHOMA.
JACK WALTON'S LITTLE
BUBBLE HAS BUSTED

The four-hush governor Of Okla
homa has laid down his hand, and is
ready to quit the game.
He will go down in history as the
monumental misft in the political
life of Oklahoma.
He moved into the state about eight
years ago, gained a little notoriety
and then sought to bulldoze the entire
state, but he didn't know his people.
The militia has been called of, but
not paid off.
Money is being mooched all over
America to hire Oklahoma soldiers to
shoot down their own people.
Walton has offered to resign if GER
tain things were done.
The offer was made about twenty
minutes ahead of his being kicked out
His gunmen have sneaked back to
their stills, and his soldiers have
swapped their guns for deficiency
warrants.
Walton is ready to quit. He is
anxiou" to quit. He has one eye on
the grand jury and the other on
Honduras. He realizes that his bull
doing tactics and idiotic effrontery
have alienated every man in Oklaho-
ma whose friendship is worth having
He stopped meeting of the state
legislature with bayonets one week,
and then called them together the
next week. If that isn't the convul-
sions of diseased brain, am no
Judge of small matters. He spent
100000 of Catholic money in assemb-
ling the militia to prevent the legis-
lature from assembling, and then
called them into session after they
had rushed home.
But there is a joker in his act of
calling the legislature together in spe-
cial session.
In special session the body can
consider no legislation except that
which is submitted to them by the
governor
Cunning Jack Walton thinks he has
led the body into another snare, but
wise old McBee of Stephens county in
thinking about three jumps ahead OF
the governor, and he will ignore the
governors call altogether. The body
is going to meet, and it is going to
apply the state boot to the bust of the
governors breeches, and land him in
the junk yard of disgraced gov
ernors along with Sulzer of New York
and Jim Ferguson of Texas.
The broadminded and statesman
like manner in which the leaders OF
the Ku Klux Klan handled the situa-
ton in Oklahoma has won millions OF
friends for the great organization
Instead of injuring the khan as it was
intended it has proven the greatest
blessing to the order. The Catholics
have again collapsed in their efforts
to put a great "coup" over on .he
khan. The Oklahoma sensation has
collapsed on the heads Of the pro.
moters, and takes rank with Mel
Rouge, and other fiascos of the
Catholics in their futile fight On tht
