REORGANIZE
AXOTIIRR murder is recorded in the ttustrop district of lyouis
iuiiii. More will undoubtedly follow.
It in nearly a yenr ngo tliut The Muil Tribune said :
if lawlessness is right for good citizens, it is right for bad citi
zens, if any organization is allowed to take tlie law into Us own hands
to punish individuals it may secretly condemn, then tho very foun-
dutions of civilization fall, and we return to .tho moral chuos of the
Jungle. It is not tho Immediate dangers of such an organiza
tion, it Is the ultimate dangers which should mouse the opposition of
all light minded citizens.
Tho truth of that statement we 'believe hns been absolutely sus
tained by recent developments in Louisiana, Arkansas, and other
parts of the south.
There is no pnrlieulur profit in arousing further bitterness and
controversy in Oregon at the present time. What we are interested
in is in trying to convince the members of the Klan thaf their organi
zation should be disbanded or so reformed that" its dangers to this
I'tate and this country can be avoided. '
Toward this end we print below the strongest plea for such ac
tion that we have seen, a plea not made in hate, but in genuine
understanding. Tho article is from tho New Republic, published in
New York City :
A ghastly crlmo waB committed at Mor Rouge Louisiana. Of that
there is not tho shadow of a doubt. Two men were killed after moro
revolting tortures than the Hpuuish Inquisition or tho most degenerate
Roman tyrants ever conceived.
Or they died under tho tortures. We leave it to the medical pro
fession to say how long a man withstands the shock; of successive arapu
tattons and tho slow crushing of bones. Who committed the crime?
That has not been proved. Perhaps It never will bo proved. Hut
tho belief is nearly universal, and is not likely evor to ho dispelled,
that the local Ku Klux Klun committed tho crlmo and shielded tho
murderers.
The motives that lead men to attach themselves to tho Klan nro
simple and in the vast majority of cases, we believo, honorable. And
yet these honorable and pntrlotic men nro engaged-In an enterprise
more dangerous to American institutions than any or all of me evils
they seek to combat. They are luunehlng an engine of vlolenco pver
which, in tho nature of tho case, they can have no control. Tho
Klnnsmnn in New York or Chicago could have had no hand In the
crime of Mer ltouge. lie could not have known of it. Still less could
he have prevented It. Ho cannot bring tho perpetrators of tho crime
to justice. The sum of his offenco In Joining such nn organization, as
the Ku Klux Klan Is that ho helps to creato a situation in which such
crimes are bound to be oommittcd.
No one who faces tho conditions of American life squnrely can
havo any fnitli In tho statement of Klansmcn that the character of
tho membership is a guaranty of moderate and lawful action. Only
tho best people nro admitted to tho order? Tho definition of "best
people" may vary widely from "Washington to Mer Rouge. "Best
people" In somo pnrt of America nppedr to relish tho odor of burning '
human flesh. A nation-wide society of "best people" may be any
thing, and do nnything, unless nil its nets uro subject to full publicity
which enables tho majority of tho organization to keep the minority
under control.
Rut why borrow trouble, It may be asked. The Kbin ns a whole lias
not yet deported from lis original iiit)omc. When It docs, there wUl
ho Umo for rowrMH-tablo citizens to get out. Yes. and to leuvo behind
them tho worst elements, equipped with tho machinery of a secret or
gunlzntlon Unit will enable them to commit crimes with Impunity.
That Is tho gravest danger that hirks In a secret organization for po
litical or social ends, like tho Klan.
There are few Americans who have not shuddered over tlie crimes
of tho Mafia and Camorra. thoso associations of blackmailers, kid
nappers, murderers, who terrorize the Italian communities in our
cities and occasionally present tho polico with a mysterious crime to
occupy them vainly for months and years. What a good Klansman
thinks of thoso societies It is needless to Inquire. Yet the Mafia and
Camorra nppcar to havo been originally launched with patriotic pur
poses not less lofty than those of tho Klun. They included, and to
somo extent still Include, tho best people, Just like tho Klan. Crimes
wero committed by them; crimes were committed In- their name. They
degenerated to criminal organizations to llvo on, a curse to tho Italian
people throughout the world. - j .
There is no room for tho secret political society In a civilized state.
It may seem to work'for good, for a tlmo, but there is no permanent
gain for good wrought through terrorism. Sooner or later such an
engine runB away from its drivers, and whore it will end and what 11 ,
will destroy on the road no one run foretell. It Is the plain duty ot
evory American legislature to unmnsk tho Klan and make Its acts ,
personnel public, be font It evolves Into a thing agnfnst which orderly
government will strive in vain.

Another thing that makes girls
Still, it's fair enough that a war
by a peace to end peace. ,
If he draws $23 n week, and handles tho company money, and
his wife has social aspirations, find the shortage.
Tho chap who says he can drink or let it alone isn't bragging
about his will power. He's bragging about his money.
A tactful barber is ono who can say "Shampoo sir?"' to a 'bald
man and keep it from sounding sarcastic.
At any rate, that New York man who slipped on an icy walk
tnd broko a $3,00( vase, can't be culled a cheap skate.
Another thing this country needs is a return to the grand old doc
trine that patches arc no disgrace.

Inasmuch as the subject of game
and sportsmanship is now the theme
of the assumed distator of tho G. O.
P. of Jackson county, and ns the
subject will be ripe on or about Feb
ruary 3rd, 1923, when the author of
the effervescent dictatorship expects
to put over another of his effusions
and butt-In where he does not be
long in a futile attempt to control
the destinies of politics In this end
of the stato, would It be too much to
"ask space" to point out a fow of
the evident dlcrepancle3 In the pat
riotism of said sport (who neither
fishes nor hunts nor buys a license
to do either but believes that he can
hoodwink the sportsmen of southern
Oregon by outpourings of gush.
During the regime of our Into de
parted governor no democrat had
tho temerity and unmitigated gall to
question the appointment of Mr. Bert
Anderson as a game commissioner,
even tho he did not know a porcu
pine when he Baw It unleBS It had
stripes. Does anyone Bitpposo for one
moment thut any Bportsman In this
district, democrat or republican, felt
a glow of pride in the knowledge or
love for game which inspired that
appointment? . Has any Bportsman in
southern Oregon ever met Bert An
derson on a river, stream or moun
tain In anything but a Ford, button
holing politicians? Then why permit
such propaganda to go unchallenged?
Have we not had enough "sports" a'
tending banquets to feather their
nests at tho expense of tho license
fees paid by sportsmen for tho en
tertainment of political sports?
Boys, I firmly agree with Sir. An
dorson in just ono theme which he
so glibly sings,' let us cut out' these
political sports who neither hunt nor
fish but manago to crab tho game.
Without a doubt It Is long pnst the
time when such sports can don a
mask and fool the real sportsmen of
southern Orogon with a banquet of
clams and crabs. "Some of tho poo
ple seme of the time, but not all of
the people all of the tlmo." In the
first place they aro too noisy will:
promises to emulate tho clam; in the
second place the crabs they harvest
are altogether too tenacious of the
emoluments of the office to suit the
taxpayer.
Does he shoot with the rifle, shot
gun or pistol? N'o, hes tho enemy
of the farmer, stockman and hunter;
ho shoots the "bull."
Here is a prophecy: Sir. Ander
son has thrown out his smoke bar
rage hi the form of an article In the
Mail-Tribune to screen the following
situation. The dictator with his
"hangorson" have arranged a ban
quet to be hold -February 3rd, 1923,
at which the governor of the state of
Oregon will preside in the innocont
belief ( ) that he is honoring the
sportsmen of southern Oregon (Eu
gene Included), an harmonious gath
ering of the clan. Far bo it from
such. The real purpose of the cama
flouge Is to drown the governor in
political oratory so that ho does not
detect the trumpeting of the repub
lican elephant in an effort to retain
