ACREAGE OF CROP :
HARVESTED BIG
@ST IN HISTORY

The acreage of crops harvested in
1928 was the greatest in the history
Of the state. This was due to an ex-
ceptionally favorable season, which
made it possible for growers to har-
vest at a profit practically the entire
acreage planted to all crops except
wheat. The acreage planted for the
1928 harvest was smaller than that of
the preceding year and was material
ly reduced by the heavy abandonment
of winter wheat on account OF the dry
weather. Much of the abandoned
wheat land, however, was planted to
other crops in the spring, chiefly corn
and sorghums.
Reports of county assessors to the
State immigration Department show
ed a decrease Of about per cent in
acreage under cultivation in 1928. The
actual decrease in acreage planted
was not quite so large as that, how
ever, for assessors were requested to
disregard wheat planted in the fall of
1922 and abandoned before the assess
1nent was made last spring. Most Of
this acreage was devoted to other of
the crops, and was therefore includ-
ed in the enumeration, but some of it
was not cropped and therefore not
regarded as under cultivation during
last season.
Corn and forage crops matured per-

LARGE CROWD
In NATTENDANG

Despite the severe cold weather
which prevailed last Monday evening,
New Years Eve, large crowd was
in attendance at the third annual
Firemen's Ball given under the aus
pices of the Julesburg Volunteer Fire
Department at the Lowe hall. The
hall was beautifully decorated, which
added much to the joyful spirit Of the
occasion, and the hundred or more eou-
Piles enjoyed themselves to the fullest
extent in dancing the old year out and
the new year in to the strains of mu-
sic furnished by Bunch's Orchestra Of
Holyoke. Near the midnight hour
refreshments were served by the fire
men, after which dancing continued
until the wee sma' hours of the first
morning of the New Year. The third

backs ever witnessed in the history Of
the local high school sport. Coming
back in the last half with score Of
IA to 8 against them, the Colorado
lads outplayed the Nebraskans at
every turn, ending the game by the
score of "a to 10.
Julesburg opened up at the be-
ginning of the second half and ran
the score to 26 to IA before Kimball
annexed another point. The team
seemed somewhat leose-jointed the

basket shooting. Kimball has = real
team and they no doubt will lead this
section Of Nebraska during the COM

cal team the entire first half by play

Swirling eddies of snow escorted
by brisk wind Sunday morning,
brought to an end the phenomenal
period of warmth experienced in De-
cember and the people of this section
were assured, with the near approach
of New Years eve, that the old year
would exit in favor of the new year
with Old Man Winter in charge.
The sudden advent of Old Man
Winter was made in a dramatic and
decisive fashion which appears to
have chased Chief Indian Summer to
other quarters for some time to come
The only warning was sudden drop
in temperature late Saturday night,
accompanied by strong wind. When
the citizens of JulesburE and commu-
nifty awoke Sunday morning, they
caught the reflection from a glisten-
ing white landscape, with the ther-
mometer away below the zero mark.
The thermometer registered well
below the zero mark Sunday morning,
and there being no abatement of the
storm during the day, the tempera-
ture took decided drop Sunday night
with the thermometer registering II
degrees below zero Sunday night, and

mained intensely cold thus far this
week, although the temperature has
moderated from the low mark reached
Sunday night and Monday morning.
New Years Eve was close contender
when the mercury lowered well below
the zero mark. The nights following
have been of a real winter nature, and
the coal man is the "cock of the walk"
these days furnishing the extraordi-

REV. ROGERS SPEAKS
ON THE KU KLUX KHAN
Local Pastor Argues On Question Of Klan Being
100 Per Cent American at Congregation
al Church Here; Klan Organizer
Also Speaks On Policies

-
"Is the Ku Klux Klan truly Ameri-
can?" was the question discussed by
Rev. W. o. Rogers last Sunday night
at the Congregational church. Th e
storm prevented the large audience
that otherwise would have gathered
for this address, but q surprising
number considering the weather were
present.
"The chief principle. of the Klan,'
said Rev. Rogers, "is white suprema-
cy." He read from the official itera-
ture of the Ku Klux Klan the follow
ing quotations:
1--WE stand for white supremacy.
Every effort to wrest from white men
the management of governmental af-
fairs in order to transfer it to the
control of blacks or any other color,
or to permit them to share in its con-
troll, is an invasion of our sacred Con-
stitutional perogatives, and violation
of divinely established law. We would
not rob the colored population of their
rights, but we demand that they re-
spect the rights of the white race in
whose country they are permitted to
reside"
Mr.. Rogers showed from the Con-
stitution of the United States that
true Americanism allows no aristocra-
cy of blood or race. Every citizen has
equal rights.
Rev. Rogers further stated: "The
question Of negro citizenship was set
tied by terrible civil war and an
amendment to the Constitution. They
are citizens. Instead of this being a
white mans country in which negroes
are permitted to reside, the Constitu-
ton guarantees to every negro citizen
the same share of ownership and con-
troll in the government that white cit
izen has.
eve share in the control of the
government by our ballot. To say
that negroes must not be permitted
to share in the control of the govern
ment, can mean but one thing, namely
! to deny them the ballot. The Fiji
| teenth amendment declares that h e
right of citizens to vote shall not be
denied or abridged on account of race,
color or previous condition of servi-
tude.
"But the Klan says they are per-
mitted to reside in this country, shall
have no share in controlling the gov
ernment, and if they don't like it they
must be reminded that this is white
mans country.
"Is that Americanism Is not that
the very creed which brought on the
civil war, the very evil that Abraham
Lincoln, our great martyred president,
lived and died to overthrow! !
Was Abraham Lincoln one hundred
per cent American when he paved the
way for the Fifteenth amendment
Or is the Ku K1ux Klan one hundred
per cent American when it says that
this is white mans country in which
the negro is permitted to live and that
the white race is God-ordained to gov
ern the black race?
Gall men are created free and
equal" says the declaration Of Inde-
pendence. We stand for white su-
pren,acy, says the Klan. Which is
true Americanism
"a citizens right to vote shall not
be denied on account of color. says
the Constitution. The negro shall
not be permitted to share in the con-
The Julesburg grit-advocate., 1924-01-03

troll of the government, says the Kan
Which is true Americanism 2"
Following Rev. Rogers address,
through the invitation of Rev. Rogers,
Mr.. A. X. Bennett, an organizer Of
the Ku Klux .Klan from Klan No. l
of Denver, addressed the audience. In
his remarks Mr.. Bennett briefly gave
an outline of the work the Klan was
doing and what the organization stood
for. "The negro question is of such
a magnaminous nature, that I won't
a magnaminrous naturt, that / won't
night" said Mr.. Bennett. However,
I wish to state that the negro is the
leastlof the Klan's troubles. The Klan
would just as quickly protect a negro
woman from a marauding white man
as it would white woman from a
marauding negro. We believe in up
holding in every sense OF the word the
Constitution of the United States and
all of its nineteen amendments"
Mr.. Bennett further stated in sub
stance:
"The Klan is an organization which
is composed of native born citizens OF
the United States to man. Each
member must be Protestant. Here
I will state that about 90 per cent of
the members of the Klan at the pres
ent time are also members of the Ma
sonic lodge, although the two organi-
cations are not affiliated with each
other in any way. Judges, lawyers,
clergymen, bankers, and men of var
ious other vocations in life compose
the membership of the Ku Klux Klan.
President Harding was Klansman.
| will leave to your own good judg-
ment as to whether or not the Ku
Klux Klan is 100 per cent American
THE Klan is an enemy of the law
less element, such as the rapist, the
murderer, bootlegger, thief and the
villain who would attempt to ruin
yours or my home; the traitor to this
great country of ours, the United
to the Klan. The Ku Klux Klan is
sworn to uphold the principles upon
which the United States was founded
and which our red -blooded forefathers
fought for. We have sworn our al,
legiance to the flag of the United
States of America until death.
"The Ku Klux Klan does not prac-
tlce violence in any manner, but IS
firm believer in the rights of all to a
fair and impartial trial in our courts.
The Klan sees all things and knows
all things, and will do everything in
its power to bring the violators Of our
laws to justice.
There are only four occasions
when a Klansman is permitted to
wear the regalia of the order, they
being as follows: At the funeral of
a brother Klansman; in public par
ade, when permission first has been
obtained from the proper authorities;
when making a public donation and in
the lodge room. The regalia is kept
under lock and key in the lodge room,
except when in use on the four occa-
sons mentioned, the Klansmen not be-
ing allowed to take the regalia to
their homes or elsewhere. Should a
Klansman violate this rule through
reason of personal revenge, he would
be Immediately banished from the or
ganization."
