The Ku Klux fClan was. bitterly scored Wednesday nitiht before Masons of .Siskiyou county at Sisson by- Samuel Hurke grand master of .the Jurisdiction ot California. Hurke declared that ho had no sympathy whatever with the Ku klux Klan nor any of Its principles. He declared that the organization was dishonest and unjust' in its prac tices and should lj stamped out. Any organization thnt conducted its work in dnrkness and in hoods to hide the identity ot Its membership, hns no place in a democracy such as ours, he said. v He said it had been told him that ilB per cent of the Klnn membership was alleged to be .Masonic, He de clared sucn an assertion was a pure fabrication without a bit of truth in it. He said ho knew for a fact that on the original membership roll there were not five per cent Masons and these Masons did not know the real meaning of the organization or they never would have Joined It. . . He said he wished to impress par ticularly that the Masons had no sym pathy with the organization and. fur thermore, did ,not -wish the members to become affiliated witH the Ku Klux Klan in any way. "The' courts' pf tho United fitntcs make- enough mistakes." ho said. "without having a mob of hoodwink citizens, so-ealletl, taking tho law into their own hands. If this country should ever fall so low that tho people had to take tho law Into their own hands Individually, thon let us carry on the work without being masked." The speaker said that there were too many fraternal organizations coming into being and cautioned Ma sons not to Join them all. . He said that he held that tho, home was first of all. and the lodge second. The speaker said that there were too many men who used their lodge memberships as a means of staying away from their homes at night. He said that thev played "hookey" from homo Just like hoys play "hookey" from school. Hn spoko for fully an hour and a half and a number of .Masons from Vroka say It was a mas terful address, a veritable sermon on brotherly love., humnH kidness and big Americanism.

The race in the American league for batting honors continues to be a merry one with the veterans battling to overcome George Slsler of St. Louis, who is showing the way with an average of .415. Ty Cobb, pilot of the Tigers, is trailing Sisler with .400 and Tris Speaker, leader of the In dians, is next with .370. The remark able slugging of Harry Heilman of Detroit the past week has placed him among the first four with an aver age of .353. The averages Include Wednesday's contest. " Smashing out thirteen hits in his last five games, Rogers Hornsby, the StLduls star, succeeded in widening to nine points the gap that separates him from his rivals in the scramble for the batting honors of the Na tional league as compared to eleven points a week ngo.

And the same evening two young ladles dressed In their coveralls each carrying a small knopsack about large enough to hold a lunch, comb, brush and puff bag and a Tew more small articles, called for supper. They gave their names as Misses Emma Roseman and E. Anna Rudrnuff ot Los Angeles, on their way to Portland, that they were hiking it although occasionally they caught a ride and were going to Lake creek to a dance that night. I asked about their baggage and they said they had sent their suitcases on to Portland. The next day they came in and reported that they had secured a ride to Lake creek and were starting for Crater lake that they had started out sightseeing and were having a great time. There were three more young men came in the last of the week who have charge as civil engineers of all ot the market roads, and engaged beds and board during the time they can be here, as their work calls them to he away a part of the time.

Last Saturday I went to Medford to consult with Dr. Holt with regard to my case and after a short talk with him started out to attend to a few little matters, one of the first being a visit to the Mail Tribune office, where everybody was too busy to talk, and the editor remarked that he' was work ing night and day. In making a little purchase just as I was receiving the change the merchant remarked, "Mr. Hewlett, do you know that that article you wrote on the amendment of the recall law Is the best thing I have ever seen on the subject." I thanked him and suggested that theVe should be Borne provision made to put a curb on putting the county or state to such an expense and to liave the promoters of the recall ot an officer to be required to give bonds -for the cost In case they tailed to gain their point, would be about as efficient a way as 1 could sug- gost to put a stop to the abuso ot a good law. As I was on my way to another business house I met one of our prominent bankers and he also congratulated me on my thinking of and making such a suggestion, remark-1 ing mat ne was In the office of one of Medford's prominent lawyers and he brought the subject up and remarked that he couldn't see how it ever hap pened, how the Old Man happened to think of such a plan.
