DENIED BY HELM
Senator Replies to Query of
Creager, Accused by Him
in Land Fraud.

a fiat denial that he was or ever
had been a member of the Ku Klux
Klan was made in the Senate today
by Senator Heflin, democrat, Alabama.
in the course Of an address regarding
his proposed investigation of alleged
Texas land frauds.
Senator Hefiin was replying to a
challenge by r. B. Creager, republican
national committeeman from Texas,
THAT he define his attitude toward the
Khan. Creager had been named in
the Alabama senator's investigation
resolution.
II am not 4 member and have never
been a member of the Ku KluX Klan,"
Senator Heflin said adding that he
had held no conferences with man
ayers of Senator Mayfield's contests
toned by any senator for two months.
The information upon which he
based his inquiry resolution, the
alabama senator said, was given to
him not by member of the Klan.
but by man who made speeches in
Missouri against the Khan in 1922"
This is the man." he said, "who
tried to obtain hearings for victims
OF these land frauds and he is the
ma man who forced the indictment of
these unfortunate victims. I repeat t
that he has information which will
astound the nation.
This man is now in the Capital to
Aid me in the inquiry"
It would be unfair, Senator Heflin
said, to say that the inquiry will be
directly especially against the Alamo
Sugar and Land Company, of which
r. B.. Creager, republican national
committeeman from Texas, is presi-
dent. because "it will be against his
crooked company and eight others"

COTTON A PERENNIAL.
From the Scientific American.

y mulberry tree with cotton
grated on its roots at La Marque,
Tex. is growing and renewing growth
each year as if it were part Of the
tree.
This unusual feat in plant grating
has been performed by p Dan George,
Il farmer of foreign birth. DR.. Z. P.
\ Eumbert of the Texas Agriculture
and Mechanical College affirms the
statement that there is q real union
between the cotton plant and the
tree. This connection has been main
tained for two and a half years, and
this year the grated cotton plant
yielded nearly thousand bolls of
cotton. a yield many times greater
than that Of an ordinary cotton plant.
The grated cotton plant having
been converted into a perennial, puts
out new growth from the crown each
year During the winter the plants
are protected by covering from the
cold. Nothing was noted by DR.. Hum
bert that indicated that the cotton was
undergoing any marked change be-
cause of it's union with the mulberry
tree. Difficulty has been experienced
in getting the seed of the plants to
