OUR HATCHET

The Ku Klux Klan is Kluxing,
I guess you've heard US kackle.
We've got our little hatchet out;
Well soon begin to hackle.
We've got a brand new hatchet, too
Pop says cit must be bright,
Because. some things must be stopped
That goes on in the night" 49,
In this here town, the way things are
We think they're pretty bad.
But Pop knows how to make 'em right
For cleanup he's the lad.
We got some enemies, it's true,
And we know who they be.
By Gosh! we got it on 'em,
They don't know who they see.
That's why we keep so secret ~
About our names and such;
When they know not who we are,
They cannot hurt us much.
So now you cops get busy
And each bring in a still.
Pop says, "By golly, II you dont,
The gang and him sure will."

ADvANCE-STANDARD
EDITOR FOR The KLAN
XXX
FOR GOD, HOME AND u. 8. A.


There is considerable speculation
just now as to the merits of the Ku
Klux Klan.
The generally accepted idea ap-
pears to obtain that the Klan is q
'awless organization which goes
about performing acts of skulldug-
gerry Of one kind or another. -.
This paper has not voiced its opin-
ion in the premises for that very
reason, i. e., that we hardly knew
what to make of it-whether the
thing was good, bad, Indifferent OF
something else.
But from authoritative informa-
tion this paper is convinced that the
Ku Klux Klan is just the sort Of an
organization we need today to deal
with lawless people and "privileged''
characters. The latter is a type of
citizen in most communities who for
some peculiar, inexplainable reason
are always passed up by the author
tiles Of these various communities.
About the only way to handle these
privileged" and lawless elements is
for God-respecting, God-fearing and
law-abiding citizens to organize to
protect decent society from their ne
farious and devilish influences.
The very fact that wife-beaters,
bootleggers, lawbreakers and every
lawless element who treat good gov
ernment as joke are doing every
thing to prejudice people against the
Klan is just why every law-abiding
citizen should be for it.
All the rot and deliberate lying
that has been put forth concerning
the Klan has invariably come from
this class of people and unfortunate
ly, has been aided by many good peo-
pie who have been naisIfiformed in the
premises.
The burning cross is the symbol of
the Klan and it is warning sign to
all who violate the law.
What especially appeals to us
about the Ku Klux Klan is that it
stands four-square on the Bible and
the divinity of Christ. Because of
accepting Christ no Jews are admit
ted to membership, for the Jew de-
nies that Christ is the Son of God.
Another thing about the Klan that
appears to US is that it Is one hun
dred per cent American.
A lot of dirty work has been done
and then blamed to the Klan in ef-
forts to discount its aims and pur-
poses, but in every instance it was
found to be the tactics pursued by its
enemies to deceive the people.
Knowing the Klan to be an organ
ization of sane, sober and God-re-
specting people whose main purpose
is to stamp out lawlessness and in
decencies and thus make our Ameri-
can communities better communities,
this paper is for it.
This is a one hundred per cent
American newspaper and as such It
stands for a true and nobler Ameri-
can citizenship. - Sherburn Advance

dition an endowment of another hall
million dollars will be established.
Announcement of the taking owe,
of the university, which was recently

Presumably the Ku Klux Klan' held
another meeting last night. It is re-
ported that the Klan use the fiery
cross symbol when the required num-
Der of members are initiated into
the Order. Efforts to learn some
thing definite about the meeting to-
day failed as none Of the automo-
bile parties ventured close to the
meeting.
This morning the pole Of the cross
was standing in the pasture field
where the meeting was held. The
cross arm of the cross bundled with
sunny sack, lay at the foot of the
cross in charred bits. A few cows
rrazed about the cross when in

Several Mankato golfers return

cross about midnight. They said
that a number of automobiles were
parked near the scene but no white

BOUNDS OF INVISIBLE

xxx

st. Paul, Minn.-The largest class
Of candidates that the local Klan has
naturalized was introduced to the
mysteries of the Invisible Empire last
Monday evening.
Cloudy skies threating rain did not
daunt the spirit of several hundred
Klansmen who followed the "invisi-
BILE" trail to the outdoor Klavern
Of the Ramsey County Klan. Lights
from the cars vending their way
through the field caused the distant
trees to cast continuously changing
spectral shadows, giving the Klavern
wierd atmosphere-an ideal setting
for Klan meeting, you will admit.
Just as the candidates were begin
ming to adjust themselves to the
ghostly Kavern a voice burst forth
eulogizing the real Klansmen. The
noviates looked in all directions but
"saw" not the voice. The Night
Hawk insists that some Of the $50
iourners" seeking more light in Klan-
craft couldn't keep their jaws still or
prevent their knees from bending.
We don't believe him, even tho he is
man of veracity on most occasions.
The unseen" voice ceased the eu-
'ogy and was heard no more. The
ritual progressed beautifully making
4 permanent impression on the minds
# all the noviates.
The most impressive part Of the
evening, all agree, arrived when the
,andidates kneeled in solemn prayer
before the altar beneath the Pickering
light of the burning cross. After the
"amen" of the prayer was given in
lnison the strains of Nearer My
God to Thee" came from the lips of
Tlansmen chanting that beautiful
hymn. 1
The speaker of the evening pre-
sented message that gave to all in
the, Klavern assembled a very COM
1lpete insight into Klankraft and
and Klandom. He, in his official and
private capacities, pledged everything
IN his power for the gloriication of
America and the Ku Klux Klan. His
words had ring of sincerity that
reached every man within the hear
ing of his voice. The speaker also
sxtolled the objectives of all true
Nansmen and the Klan so forcibly
rs to rekindle all embers of construc-
live interest. When the speaker closed
IN applause of healthful enthusiasm
broke forth, giving evidence that
greater things could be expected from
hat moment on.
Every. Klansman Of St. Paul who
attended last Mondays meeting looks
forward to the next time when he
,an again emigrate to the delectable
bounds of the Invisible Empire.
