SECRET POLITICAL
By CHAS. II. FISHER.
It would he a sad commentary upon tlie stability of a
demoeratif! government and free educational institutions if it
were necessary to organize oath-bound secret' societies to
irotoct the government and those institutions of freedom it
bus fostered. The resurrected Ku Klux Klan is an oath
bound secret society, designed to sit in indtrinent uuon the
patriotism 01 tlie citizen or tlie aspirant lor othce; to vin
dicate or condemn liiit without a hearing,, and if need be
authorize the boycott of , his-business and drive him from a
community by threats and torture if necessary.
These secret political societies have been active in this
country at times for many years. Before the civil war tlie
"Know Nothings," as they were popularly called, ran a can
didate for president who received many thousand votes. For
a few years about a quarter of a century ago,' wo had the
A. P. A.'s electing members of congress, and when they dis
appeared as suddenly as they came into public notice, other
secret societies of similar nature followed in turn. Now it is
the Ku Klux Klan. .
Such societies grow rapidly at times, and disintegrate as
quickly. They are founded on popular prejudices and igno
rance, and many good citizens are talked into joining them
when the movement is youner by unscrupulous organizers
who misstate the motives of the order. These members de
sert just as quickly when they find they have been deceived.

church. The movement dies quickly when tlie light of pub

principle of free democratic government, which is based upon
personal and religious .liberty and the equality before the

Premier Briand has resigned becauso he" found popular
support slipping away from him and dared not risk a vote
of confidence in the-Chamber of Deputies. This is evidence
ot the political reaction that is under way in all the allied
nations which repudiated the leaders who were responsible
for, winning the world war and replaced them with their
liitisy opponents, niany of whom had actually hindered the
successful prosecution of tlie war. Clemenceau wont down
to defeat earlier than AVoodrow Wilson in this country, and
Greece and England fell quickly in line by placing tho anti
war loaders in power. Iiloyd-dcorge alone held on, proba
bly because no match for hinr in ability and leadership qual
ifications came forward in opposition in a nation little sub
ject to quick and violent reactions of public sentiment. The
rhiglish move and act more slowly and perhaps aro surer
of their ground than many other peoples of the world. Now
Briand. falls and in this" country the sober second thought
of the masses is swingiug sentiment gradually against an
administration that was placed in power simply because it
was opposed to everything that had been done during tho
national crisis, and gave no promise of -corrective or 'con
structive policies.

discontentedly by the window.
"It Is the Moon ef Snowshoes," said
the boy. "I do not like to be here."
"Why don't you go home for a

"Ceuld IT' exclaimed the boy with
shining eyes, and when Mr. Douglass
nodded, he was oft like a flash to pack
his things. A few hours later he was
on his way back to his home on the

U was almost a year since he had
been home. Ho had no home of his
