To tho editor:
"Wo pledge ourselves to support

of mummery made complex for spec
tacular purpoHeH.
Wo condemn any organization or
association which aRsumcB to set

rights and relations of the people.
We condemn aa seditious the or
ganization known as tho "Ku Klux
Klan." Tho lnevitalilo result of their
practices and tcachingfl Is to disturb
tho peace and tranquility of the stato.
liy their act secretly concocted they
have seriously disturbed tho peace
and tranquility of Jackson county and
state of Oregon and their purposes, if
carried to tho ultimate, would result
In treason and the complete disrup
tion of society.
Tho Ku Klux Klan has already se
riously disturbed the peace and quiet
of every community invaded by them.
They preach and teach race hatred,
and religious Intolerance. Btiifo und
war 'are Inovltuhlo if they ara per
mitted to carry on.
Tho Ku Klux Klan Is un-Amorlcan,
unpatriotic and subversive of law and
order. Their rites, rituals and re
Kalla are ull prepared for deception,
reduction and Bocret Invasion of the
rights of tho people. Their teachings
and practices are insults to tho terms
"Amorlcanism," "law and order," and
are written in high-sounding terms to
deceive the unwary and to seduco tho
othorwlse virtuous to a compliance
With their unlawful demands.
Whntovor tho original purposo and
conception of tho -founder of this
ordor may have been, the machinery
was so constructed us to arouse the
cupidity of unconsclcnablo scoundrels
disclosing to them tho possibilities
under it for graft and. loot. It has
fallen under tho control of such
scoundrels nnd Is now dominated by
them for unlawful gain, regardless of
its mcnuce to tho state and nation;
in other words It is made to consti
tute tho most gigantic confidence
gamo over conceived.
The high sounding titles and skil
fully worded expressions of loyalty,
"patriotism" and "law and order"
are so interwoven with deceit ns to
blind the thoughtless into a belief of
honesty where deception Is tho ulti
mate aim. Tho time chosen to
launch this hydra-headed monster is
this period of tho greatest confusion,
resulting from wur and unrest. Even
our flag Is desocruted to tho purposo
of aiding in the perpetration of crime
and disorder.
Not contented with individual ac
cessions to the ranks of this danger
ous combine, they have skilfully con
nived to bring ptotestant organiza
tions and religious zealots into tho
maelstrom they have created for tho
purposes of anarchy and destruction.
Tho members of those religious or
ganizations havo no excuse tor thus
being seduced. Their purposes may
be ever so high and alms ever so
honest, yet they havo unwittingly
placed themselves within tho coils of
a serpent to bo destroyed In the gene
ral wreck and ruin. They have no ex
cuse for falling into tho clutches of
this Rcductlvo ring, because they
could havo informed themselves if
they would lay aside their fjinatleul
zeal long enough to carefully survey
the situation. Fanatic Is never a safe
councillor.
Men who havo been seduced by
this monstrous thing, whether from
lack of intelligence to see the truth,
or from spcrct desiro to further their
trust -undor tho government. Uick
of Intelligence, or lack of honesty nre
equally conditions thut disqualify
them.

LIES. LIE-DETECTORS, ETC.
ROHKRT I.OI.'JS STi;Vi:.NS()X once wr-.tf a tale unit!..! the
"Story of a Lie." It tokl of a yomijf man who lied about ii
rather unimportant incident, hut lie lied to benefit himself, to escape,
for the moment, rather an unpleasant situation.
Almost innocent ut the outset, the lie started to grow like the
proverbial snow ball. It produced more lies. These in turn produced
others. Before long the young man was snarled tip completely in de
ceit, his whole life became a lie, he brought misery and suffering both
to his friends and to himself, and finally what started as a bit of
guileless fiction, ended in a complete and devastating tragedy.
Stevenson made an interesting distinction between lying, which
was merely a form of romantic invention, such as story telling by
children, the "polite lying" of tactful adults. and lies which were
employed consciously to spare the liar suffering or embarrassment.
The latter he maintained usually ended, as this particular falsehood,
in disaster.
Perhaps Stevenson was right. All good people hope so. But to a
casual observer it sometimes seems that some of the most confirmed
liars have a way of getting away with it, and others no more repre
hensible, but less clever, ususally get in trouble at the first offense.
All of which serves as an introduction to the fact that a lie-detector
has recently been invented. It deals with cardio-pneumo-Kraphie.
tracings which according to press reports, registers one way
when the victim is telling the truth and quite a different way when
he isn't. The police department at Berkeley, California, is using
such an instrument and most satisfactory results arc, claimed.
This is a step in advance. The only trouble is to popularize, the
instrument. Criminals are not the only liars. There are professional
politicians for example. The new invention will never attain its
proper usefulness until all politicians are forced to wear the lie de
tector at least during an active campaign. A little disc of red Jhat
would jump into Tiew whenever the truth was slaughtered, would be
a great benefit to a suffering public. It would, we are certain, be
no lesrf irksome and much more popular with the musses than a wrist
watch.

tOU' riI?ANDI)AD' 01'c wt! hit tll(' ''. tt-ll us a tale," said
little Jay. And 1'eterkin and Abigail insisted that I tell
a title. "Today," I said, "you hail a trip in my new ear, and saw
it zip at giddy speed along the lea, until a speed cop climbed on
me. But you're so ns.'d to wondrous things, you calloused, mod
ern kids, by jings, the finest car that ever was can't move you to
a mild applause. When I was young, aged six or five, my grand
dad took me for a drive; he doubtless hoped I might indorse the
animal he called a horse; it was a tall, ungainly beast, and had
four shambling legs, at least; it had no place for oil and gas, lint
burned up oats and hay and grass; and when all sweated up and
warm, it drew the flies, in mighty swarm, and it grew rather
peeved thereat and kicked a hole through granddad's hat. It put
in all its pep and power, and took us seven miles an hour." "It's
seventy no doubt you mean," said Petfrkin, "you're off your
bean." "Twas seven miles an hour, by gum; we thought that
we were going some ; and grandad, he looked down at me, and I
looked up to him in glee; 'Now, this N speed!' I heard him"

Jay; "wo don't believe a word you say; a man might drive n
horse, indeed, but who would say a word of sp.rd when bitting
up so punk a gaitf We'll go to bed; it's getting late."

EAGLE POINT EAGLETS
A. C. Howlett
Charles J. Kafer, formerly a mer
chant of Hrownsboro but now of Glen
ilale, Ore., was a business caller Mon
day. Mrs. Arion McDowell and her sister,
Mrs. Geo. Kenneed of HilllnKs, Mon.,
called at the Sunnysi.le for dinner anil
were delighted with our country com
pared with Montana. They had been
out through eastern Oregon, visited
Crater Lake and its surroundings, and
while they admitted that some parts
of Montana were very attractive, when
it camo to comparing It with Oregon,
the scenery and general productive
ness, especially the fruit of almost all
kinds and the quantity, they thought
that there was no comparison, and It
they could have remained until the
apples, pears and peaches were ripe so
that they could have eaten them when
allowed to ripen on the tree Instead of
having the fruit picked as soon as they
begin to get so they will bear to be
shipped they would have thought that
was no comparison, to say nothing of
the rigid cold climate.'
Among the callers at the Sunnyside
Monday were Frank Ditsworth and
wilo of Peyton, Win. Coy, the night
guardian of the First State Bank of
Eagle Point, II. D. Buchanan of Seattle
If. L. Moore of Butte Falls who has
charge of the Owen timber in the
north and eastern part of the county.
He reported that on his beat through
fho timber he found two places where
fire had been started, close together,
but the forest patrol had discovered
and extinguished the fire before it had
time to do much damage.
Tho same day Mrs. C. W. Watkins,
her son Clay, and daughter Miss Edna
of Talent, came In and Miss Edna en
gaged board and room. She has 'ac
cepted the position of stenographer
with the Butte Falls-Eagle Point Irri
gation District and is located in the old
Racket store building and seems to be
ready to do the work satisfactorily.
She says that they tlb not keep her
very busy. Her mother and brother
returned to their home the same after
noon. Green Mathews, one of the early
pioneers of Jackson county, as he has
resided here all of his life, with the
exception of a few years he spent in
Montana, and his son-in-law, J. F.
Johnson, were trading with our mer
chants Monday and Mr. Johnson had
his wife and one child with l.im. I
asked James how ho liked the result of
the election on the recall issue and he
replied that he did not know there was
going to be an election until the Friday
night before as he was busy working
on the road and some one happened to
speak of it about the time they quit
for supper, but the result was they nil
worked all day just tho same as if
there had been no election.
Speaking of the recall election and
tho expense of such moves as well as
the expense which is estimated to be
near JMOO or JIUOO, I have a sugges
tion to make to the candidates for the
legislature, and that is to have the
recall law so amended to have it sim
ilar to the criminal low in a Justice
court. In that court if I want to have
a warrant issued for the arrest of my
neighbor and tho justice has his doubts
as to the advisability of issuing the
warrant, he can require the complain
ant to give security for the costs li
case he fails to produce evidence suf
ficient to convict, and thut recall law
could be so amended as to require the
promoters of a recall to give security
for the cost and then they would stop
aim welsh the matter well if they
thought that the expense would have
to bo met by the promoters if they
failed to win out. If that had been the
law lit the recall caao decided last
Saturday, the Ministerial association
that took such an active part In trying
to remove our sheriff, Charley Terrill.
would have probably been studying
their bibles to try to devise some plan
so that they would not have to preach
to empty benches, nnd In conclusion of
this subject, I would refer them to the
commission of Ezeklel as recorded In
Ezeklel 3, chapter 17-21 iuclusiVw.
There is another material change

H. Holmes, tjiir enU'i'iirUini ii:a'e
man. i mui.iiiK a very mat'-tiitl ctu.n-e
in his bitsine.-.a plans. He has based
a part of the T. E. Nichols bnililmi:
that was fixed up for a meat market
and ice plant and is tearing all of that
part out so as to have tt all converted
into one room and make it into a large
roomy garage where there will be less
danger from fire and more comfortable
both in winter and summer, and nearer
the business center as it is almost
right on the main street through town
and nearer to the Crater Lake high
way. '
Mrs. Caroline Thomason of Butte
Falls, and her sister. Mrs. A. li. Ellison
and her daughter Miss Mary Ellison
of Portland were passengers on the
stage for Uutte Falls where Mrs.
Thomason is to tako charge of the
culinary department of the new rail
road camp three or four miles beyond
Butte Falls.
Mrs. Arglee Green and her traveling
companion, Mrs. M. 11. Kentnar who
left here about a month ago accompan
ied by Mrs. Green's sister, Mrs. Floyd
Pierce, to go to Seattle to visit with
her sister, Mrs, Lelah Jones, returned
the first of the week.
Ray Conley of Butte Falls who owns
and operates a sawmill four miles from
Butte Falls passed through here Mon
day on his way to Medford. Carl
Iteiberstea.lt, one of our prominent
citizens,, was a business caller Monday.
John Iseli and wife of Glendule, his
son Rudolph, wife and three children,
and Miss Iva McCoy of Portland, came
In Tuesday for dinner on their way to
Uutte Falls. Mr. Iseli several years
ago was a part owner In a sawmill on
Round Top that was burned down, and
afterward they lived ou their home
stead near the old mill site and even
tually went to Butte Falls where he
was head sawyer with the Butte Falls
Lumber company, where he accumu
lated considerable property, finally set
tling In Glendale where he has been
ever since. Ho still owns property in
Butte Falls and his old homestead, and
came out to look after his interests in
that region, and his son and family
carao up from Portland for an outing
and to visit his parents and visit the
scenes of his and his wife's younger
days. Mr. lsell, Jr., is extensively en
gaged in the poultry business in Port
land keeping about 1200 to 1D00 hens
on hand.
Emanuel Leidman and wife, of Los
Angeles, came in the same day, Tues
day, and spent the night, and tho next
'morning started for the Blue Canyon
beyond Butte Falls, to visit Mrs. Leid
man'8 parents, Mr. and Mrs. A. R. Zim
merman. Mrs. W. H. Brown started a few days
ago to visit her husband's aunt, Mrs.
Charlotta Brown, who is quite sick, in
her home in British Columbia.
Charley Terrill, our popular sheriff,
was here for supper Tuesday. Ho was
out to subpoena witnesses in this
neighborhood in a case to decide the
ownership of a horse. He was accom
panied bv H; B. Van Winkle. Carl An-
lilnrorin u'fla aton hara frti Dllnnar
them nnd so was a man, wife and two
strangers.
