Tennessee Klan Holds Many En-

Rapidly

JACKSON, TENN, Feb. 25.-Jack-
son, Tennessee, has one of the best
Klaans in the state. Meetings are
held once each week, and every other
week the meeting is open for eligible
men to attend in order to hear the
principles of the Klan discussed.
Last Friday night the editor of
The Tennessee Fiery Cross addressed
the meeting. A large audience heard
for the first time the principles of
the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan
from the man whose writings they
had been reading through the col
umns of The Tri-State American
predecessor to The Tennessee Fiery
Cross for the past year.
Much interest was shown through
out the evening, and especially in
that part of the address which ex-
pressed plea for constructive effort
on the part of every Klansman to
build up love and American patriot
ism and get back to the constitution
of the United States and the Chris
tian principles upon which the Klan
is founded.

Never was crime so flagrant or
plentiful as today. Never has this

Modernism cannot hope to scope

which have been and are being made.
Man must have a personal God. An
abstract God offers him nothing. Any
fool can tear down, but only God and
those in whom His spirit moves can
build for eternity.

MAYFIELD LEADS At
START OF RECOUNT
Only 155 of $500 Sacks Of Ballots
Counted During First
Week
(Bureau of Publication and Education)

(Bureau Of Publication and EducatiOn)
WASHINGTON, ID. c., Feb. %
AT the close of counting ballots at
the end of this, the first week, in the
Texas contest case, not much pro
gress had been made. There are
25O0 mail sacks of ballots to count
and the first week saw 155 of them
disposed of.
According to the attorney for Sen
ator Mayfield, the 155 sacks of bal
lots counted did not show much
change either way. If anything
there was a slight gain for the Tex
as senator whose seat is being con-
tested. If this ratio continues
through the remaining ballots to be
counted Senator Mayfeld will have
been elected by more than three to
one over Peddy in the Lone Star
state.
Four counties were counted this
forenoon. Three of them gave Sena-
tor Mayfield more than three to one
for his opponent. In Brazos county
Mayfield was leading Peddy by more
than four to one. Brooks county
showed a close vote with Mayfield
only IL votes ahead of Peddy.
