Birth which is purely Jewish. The
Germanian Society IS purely German
The negroes have their separate race
societies, in which they teach social
equality. The Catholics have the
knights of Columbus, the most gigan.

the face of these well known facts
who can deny the same rights an6
privileges to native born, white
American Protestants?
Khan Demands Unqualified Allegiance
to U. s.. A.
H. SEVENTH-Another feature of the
klan obligation that impresses me, is
its unqualified allegiance to the con-
stitutional government of the Union
to the laws of its several states, and
it's reputation of all foreign poten-
tates whatsoever, political, religious
or otherwise. This is really the thing
that excludes Catholics, because they
swear allegiance to the Pope at Rome
above every government, power and
authority on earth. The symbol OF
this undivided and unqualified alleg-
lance to our native land, is the Amer
lean flag, painted red with the life's
blood of American heroes; made
snowy white by the spotless charac-
ter of American womanhood; with q
patch of blue snatched from Ameri-
cas- unclouded skies; and bedecked
with the glittering stars of an un.
defeated nation. This emblem we raise
above every ensign of every nation
on earth and eswear, to defend it with
our life's blood.

EIGHTH-Again I learn from this
sacred obligation which I have just
assumed, that this truly American or

Rome seeks to establish; for the free.

worship, all of which Rome seeks to
utterly destroy; we stand also for the
Protestant religion, bought with the
life blood of million of martyrs
midst the flames at the stake, fired by
the cohorts of an intolerant, blood
thirsty Roman power. Furthermore
we stand for the protection Of Ameri-
can womanhood and the sacredness
of Protestant marriages, which Rome
denounces as adultery. We stand fol

How Can Real Americans Oppose
49, Khan?
In the face of these indisputable
facts, how can any loyal American
citizen oppose the Khan? Only
through ignorance and prejudice, OF
on account of an allegiance to some
foreign power. Only those who ART
blinded by prejudice, enslaved by ig.
norance, deluded and deceived BY
false reports, too narrow-minded to in
vestigate and too intolerant to b.
