The KuKlux Klan's warning to in

Singular, hut the order itself was
singular and did nothing affer con
ventional lines. These would be sent
the marked man at intervals and no
word to accompany them. If he were
residing in the south during those
troublous days, he would know tha
significance of those mysterious, but
seemingly harmless peas and if he
were guilty of a misdeed against
either the cause of the south, and of
it's traditions or the silent, deadly
hand who thus rememhei ed him, his
days were surely numbered and there
was no escape from thair vengeance
but by death at his own hand and
Seldom was there that.
One dared not breathe the name of
the organization for fear his nearest
neighbor might belong to it and many

of unguardedly making a careless re

check they received from Kerr, Gif-

single check that concern has paid for
one purchase of grain in the county.
The sellers, now in the Enterprise
Grain company, have been buying
wheat through the fall, selling now
and then, but always accumulating a
large and larger store. This week they
concluded the price had reached a fig
ure where they could not' afford to
take further chances and so they let
loose.
The other lot was the 11,500 bushels
sold by C. P. Ragsdale to the same
house for $1.55.

it is said, these modern knights en
rolled the best r.nd noblest blood in
the old south, but after their specific
mission was completed and a stable
law i ;gulated the i ihts of the south
ern people, their services were no
longer leciuired and they disbanded,
when the hoodlums and desperate
charactei s of the land took up the
order and used it to cover their own
deeds, thus bringing down upon the
name of the "Clansmen" the odious
reputation they have ever since borne.
Many blood curdling tales were told
of their doing and secret and deadly
workings.

For floor space tliey must have room
