THREE HURT IN STAGE WRECK Men Receive Minor Injuries When Stage Goes Over Grade. STEERING GEER BROKE ! Drag Link Gave Way Al lowing Heavy Machine . to Angle Over Ten Foot Bank. Three men received minor In juries yesterday afternoon, when a southbound nuto stage opera ting between Roseburg and Eu gene, went over the grade Just north of the Oakland brigde. The injured were J. D. Meisner, of Medford; W. K. Rusk, of Central Point and Jacob S. Mollenhour, of Portland. The accident occurred about 3:15 p. m. at a point about a quarter of a mile noith of Oakland. The bus, coming south, ran off of the pavement and struck the mac adam road, where the highway has been left unpuved pending the construction of a combination bridge and overhead crossing, when the accident took place. A drag link on the steering gear broke, causing the driver to lose control. Fortunately he had slow ed down to about IS miles an hour, in changing from the pave ment to the dirt road, so that when the machine swerved to the left and started over the 10-foot embankment it was not traveling at any rapid rate of speed. The driver, Thomas Larkln, re ported that the machine angled off to the left and went fur a short distance along the shoulder of the road, and then slowly rolled over on ICa side. There were twelve pas sengers in the bus, who, of course were badly frightened, but very fortunately only three received In juries. The heavy framework of the I big truck afforded protection for them, and although they were shaken around considerably, the i Injuries were all confined to cuts, bruises and shock. Mr. Meisner receiver a bruised right hip and bruises on his left side, as he was thrown against the side of the machine. Mr. Rusk received several deep ! and painful glass cuis. and a bruise on his right shoulder. Mr. Mollenhour had a bruised and strained left elbow. Many wild rumors were circula ted Immediately after the acci- dent, reports being received in the city that several persons had been ! killed and that the stage had I plunged over a 4o.fr.ot embank ment. Deputy Sheriff h. fc. Leas, of Oakland, and Sheriff Stnruier. of this city, hurried to the scene of the wreck at once and made a thorough investigation. It wa found that the driver of (the truck was proceeding cautious ly, ana tnai me siaine "i" ting at a very moderate rale of speed, the accident being caused entirely by the defect in the steer in gear. Mr. Meisner, continued on to his home, in spite cf Injuries, and the ! other two men were brought to I Roeburg end remained at th" Ter ' mlnal hotel last night.

WHITE RACE SUPERIOR Urges Followers to Rally and Fight for White Su premacy Says Fight ' Not Religious. (Associated' Press Leased Wire.) KANSAS CITY. Sept. 24. Th8 Ku Klux Klan was hold up as "the last refuge of American patriotism worthy of the name,'" by Imperial Wizard Hiram Wesley Evans, In addressing tho second Imperial, Klonvokatlon of the order here to day. "Klansmen and Klanswomen . are verily tho same of the earth on whom depends the future of civilization," the Imperial wizard declared. Asserting that tho future of America and the white race "hangs In the balance," Mr. Evans said that "the blood which pro duces human leadership must be protected from Inferior blood and from the competition which sap the vitality of leadership, because It makes the struggle for existence such a burden that people stagger under It." "You." he told his klan audi tors, "are of this superior blood. You are more you are leaders in the only movement in the world at present which exists solely to es tablish a civilization that will In sure these things." History has proved and Is prov ing dally, the speaker" declared that only Nordic and Anglo-Saxon peoples have reached a "high level of Intelligence." Turning to Immigration the Im perial wizard said: . . "The undesirable hordes from other lands nre driving to our sides, the millions who for one reason or another, havo been hes itating. Every attack upon the klan makes more clear cut the issue of Americanism against nlienism. Americans are soino times slow, but they . re plodding and discerning a- ! 4hey ' are honest. Hence, tin !I eventual ly discover the klan and reeog nlze it as the last refuge of Amer ican patriotism, worthy of the name. "Unified at last, with a purpose that is definite and holy with a militant organization, with tho seal and courage and loyulty which made the Nordic nnd Anglo Sa xon peoples the greatest ott earth, we are ready to Bland us tho French stood at Verdun and shout to the alien hordes, "thou shalt not pass." . - ." Millions of Americans are It) arduous quest of leadership to ward better government, adequate law enforcement, Ihe elevation of Boclety and a morn perfect na tional patriotism. The klan alone supplies that." Warning klansmen not to under estimate the strength of the ojh ' position to the forward march of the klan, Mr. Kvans said: "When petty persecutions failed onr enemies resorted to direct terrorism. They Htarte.l a series of riot which had shed brood and disgraced our country throughout the spring nnd summer, and it I s'lll In evidence perhaps to re main for some time to come. Most of the attack were planned anil directed by the same forces which were behind the early form cf persecution. Some, It must b attributed to the product of racial Instincts hostile to Americans and evorythlng American." The Imperial wizard declared that the outside world "will event ually know that klansmen do not hate Roman Catholics, Jews, ne groes or aliens." "The klan's fight." he continued, "Is not with Hie people but with avstetns and instincts ami princi ples which run counter to Anglo Saxon Instinct. American and pro testant Christianity. The klan doe not exist to command peoples In their religious hitlers. Our watch cry Is 'back to the constitution.' "The constitution of the Unite.. Stales tolerates creeds but It fa vors none. Hence, the only de mand the klan makes of the Ro man Catholic church Is that she cease meddling In American poli tics and that she come down from her s.Jf erected pedestal of special privilege and tase her piace along side the Methodist, Ilaptist and oilier rhun In s. "The klan believe In the up building of the American nation, founded a history emphatically ibi lares, on Uie supremacy of the i white race, Ihe genius of the Nor : die snd Anglo-Saxon peoples, and the free private Interpretation of God's word.
