KLAN LECTURE

A crowd of 500 people -zs pres
ent at the lecture Monday night at
the flag pole grounds, at which time
Rev. Mewe diseearsee on the Eco
nomie and Political Aspect of the
Ku Klux Khan"
Rev. Move is regarded as one of
the foremost proponents of the Klan
in Idaho and ii was anticipated that
from his knowledge of the temper of
that organization some pointers on
the attitude of the Khan at the COM
ing election might be given the pub
lie. His discourse was an answer to
recent statements made by candi-
dates on national tickets, and the
position of La Toilette. Davis and
Dawes severely criticized as being
discriminatory in favor of other in
terests in the country. This portion
of his lecture being the most vital
and interesting 10 the bulk of the
congregation. considerable comment
was made on the able manner in
which the speaker met the argument
against his organization and in turn
presented the proposition as viewed
by him.
Social, economic and moral sub
jects received the attention of h e
speaker also. and efforts of the Klan
along this line were explained in de-
tail. Mr. Move asserted that the re-
cent matter of restriction of immi-
grafton was direct result of Klan
effort and that the future attitude of
his organization would be one of
further restriction, and that The
class of immigrants received into
this country in late years was of un-
desirable quality.
Regarded as one of the most fear
less and eu,speken Klan lecturers in
the field, We are informed that the
national officers of the organization
rank Rev. Move as being one of the
finest speakers on the lecture staff.
and that because of his close study
of social conditions and thorough
understanding of the intents of the
organization. he is qualified to rep
resent it with the full sanction of of
ficials of the order
