GRAND MASTER OF
MASONS BITTERLY
TREKA, Aug. 20. 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.
