KLAN ISSUE DEAD
DAV Is BELIEVES
CBv The Associated FRESH

NEW YORK, Aug. 23.-So far as his
own campaign is concerned John W.
Davis believes he has disposed of the
subject of the Ku Klux Klan.
IN condemning in his Seagirt speech
yesterday this or any other organiza-
tiOn that sets up standard of racial
or religious prejudice in America and
calling upon President Coolidge to join
him in removing the topic from the
field Of political debate. the democratic
presidential candidate sought to clarity
the atmosphere and leave free the way
for wholehearted attention to those is
sues upon which he believes the con
test il to he decided in November.
Mr.. Davis advisers say that the de-
cision TO 20 beyond the action Of the
convention that nominated him was his
owr.
Counsel had been divided on what had
come 70 be recurring subject Of dis
cussion.
Some Of his closest friends had urg-
ca that he stand upon his declaration
in his acceptance speech AZ Clarksburg
against all forms Of bigotry and
intolerance. BY whatever name known.
Others were equally insistent that
rs clear as was his language then
the sores made in the New York con-
vention could he healed only BY a spe-
cific reference to the organization
which the convention voted not to name
in the national platform.
In deciding TO dispose of the ques-
tion once and for all, as he told the
New Jersey democracy. Mr.. Davis en-
phasized that he did not regard the
subject as one having n proper place in
this any other campaign. and that
il must not be permitted to divert at
tention from those issues the people
must settle in the forthcoming elec-
tion.

LAST BULLET FIRED
IN CIVIL w ARIS
LOCATED NEAR BAY

A bullet, alleged BY its finder 20 be
the last bullet fired in the Civil War,
was picked up BY the party Of road
enthusiasts who went to Boca Chica
from Brownsville yesterday. and along
with IL were found two buttons, one OF
which bore the emblem OF the Union
army.
This bullet by its position. near Bo-
ca Chica. in which direction the defeat
ed negro soldiers of the north were
fleeing, must have been the last Of the
war. declared the finder. II was point
ing in the direction of the bay, and had
evidently been overtaken by the negro
soldiers.
The bullet was one OF the huge spe-
r'ts -ged in cap-and-b ball rifles Of the
Civil War days. The back end Of IL was
indented, showing the powerful kick of
the powder, and the bullet was in good
shape showing il had not outrun any
soldiers on its trip. This brllet. which
was fired with good intentions. was
evidently sent through the air several
days after the Civil War was actually
over. as the last battle of he Civil War
was fought near Boca Chica.
