of the Law A NOVI-X FOR ALL KLANDOM By J. WALTER GREEP Author of -Songs of Sixteen Summers," "The Venter of Years," Elc. Copyright 1922, by J. WALTER GBKEPi

(Continued From Last Issue)

Then George Taylor whs called to the stand. When he entered the courtroom everyone hud supposed that he whs-simply u spectator. WBen his name was called as a witness a. tremor of surprise llowed over the audience. 'I'Je judge glowered at him. Peterson regarded him with a cynical grin. The attorney for the prosecution first questioned him : "Your name?" "George Tt. Taylor." "Occupation?" "Superintendent of the city schools." "Mr. Taylor, have you at any time had reason to helieve that Mr. Peterson was dealing in illicit liquor?" . "I have."

O'ill you please tell the court you have these suspicions and

vi nai proor you have had ot tins condition?" "In the first place." said Taylor. " have a great deal of dealings and associations with hoys. During the past week 1 have heen called upon a number of times by ward teachers to discipline hoys who came to school under the influence of liquor. In every case these hoys reported

that Mr. Peterson had bold or given them the liquor." "Will you name the hoys?" lie named tlieiu. They were the ones who had just testified. "All right, Mr. Taylor, I am through with you," said the prosecution. "The defense may now question yon." The attorney for the defense assumed an arrogant and sarcastic air and seemed determined to make fun of Taylor. "Your name?" "I have already given it." "Full flame, please." Rather curtly. "George Hohhins Taylor." "Some name!" The court laughed.

"What is vour business, Mr. Tavlor?" "A:' previously stated. I am super iiitendent of the city schods." "Dees this position require much work?" "That is an irrelevant question.' Answered Taylor, plainly annoyed. The court sustained his objection. "Mr. Taylor, have you ever seen liquor in Mr. Peterson's home?" Ohuve never been in his homo." 'hen, haw you ever seen an.v in his place t business?" "I have never been in his place of business." "Did ' you ever, at any time, see liquor in Mr. Peterson's possession? Remember, no hearsay here. Did yon see the whisky?" "I did not."'"That will do, Mr. Taylor. You

iiie dismissed." The boys were again called to the witness stand and put through a grilling fire of cross-questions. Kvery effort was made by the defense to tangle and muddle their testimony. They became frightened and incoherent. One of them retracted. They were dismissed amidst the uproarious laughter of the defense witnesses, the smiles of the audience at their discomfiture and the complete satisfacion of a jury which had alreudy reached a conclusion. At five o'clock, before the case was Kiven to the jury, the prosecutor summed up his evidence-. These young men were always loitering around the poolroom, with tho smell of liquor on their breath. According to their own testimony Pelerson had given them liquor.

The chief of police had placed these young men under arrest, all

iiruuk, and they had sworn that Pet

erson had given them the whisky. The superintendent of schools had been force! to discipline the hoys who came to school intoxicated, and they swore they had obtained-their drink -i from Peterson.

In rebuttal the defense stated that,

hile much hud been asserted, noth

Hg had been proved. The boys

themselves had retracted. They were

known as wayward, untruthful boys. All the rest of the testimony was hearsay, and based on the assertions of the yonns men,-and was, therefore, null an 1 void. "It would he a

great crime," thundered the oratorical dffense, "to line a high-minded citizen, who has never had a stigma gains; his name, on the flimsy evidence of thc3e recah itrants. It pains

me beyond measure to see our chief of police lining himself up with the professional reformer and lowering the dignity of the high office to which he has been called by the sovereign will of the people of this city, by this listening to the rambling fancies of children. I trust our chief of police will have a case before h? comes into court again. And. concerning our superintendent, 1 could nciiicely expect any better of him. lie belongs to that class of reformers who would make the world over In a minute to suit themselves. I tell you, gentlemen of the jury, the

chool teachers and preachers are

ruining this country!" (Ioud laugh

fer from the Jury.) "Why, it has become so that a man cannot have a little personal liberty without

someone spying on his private nf

fairs. The next thing you know he

is hauled into court and made ridicule in In the presence of hlB friendi- - by such humiliating incidents as we hare Just witnessed. Gentlemen o.' the jury, the least you can dols to "show your. contempt for these con duct-regulators by acquitting Mr, Pet

erson without fine or forfeit." Judge Kavraker then arose to instruct the jury. He radiated the atmosphere of deep solemnity. He shook his shaggy locks like a Roman gladiator going into the fray; then pounded the desk with his massive fist. "Since the birth of our Republic, liberty has been our watchword," he began; "it blazed in the wafcTi-fires in the camps of Washington, flamed at Lundy's Lane, and was writ in the face of heroes who stormed the strongholds of the Montezumas. Lee suffered for it along the Potomac, Stonewall Jackson died for It ; and your own fathers, at Chickamauga and Shiloh gave their blood for its sake. Individual, personal liberty is the groundstone of

jour democracy; it is the everlasting

heritage of proud sons ot noDie sires.

But, alas! ladies and gentlemen here assembled, real liberty has about perished from the earth. Our precious and fundamental doctrine of state's rights has now been abrogated to second place and a dictatorial Federal power placed on the pedestal. Men in Washington now decide what you shall eat nr drink or wear; they regulate your every action by law. They have forced on an unwilling people the iniquitous

Eighteenth amendment, and now they are forever snooping around trying to find someone breaking a law that nobody but fanatics voted for. Todav we have a striking ex

ample of the work of this Washington oligarchy. Here we find a decent citizen, a taxpayer and a man who contributes to all the good works of the community, dragged into court like a criminal and subjected to all this humiliation, solely on the testimony of some irresponsible boys. I am deeply pained to find our efficient chief of police listening to these tales of children. Even more deeply hurt to hear our superintendent of schools giving ear to these ridiculous and false reports. I have no words of criticism for these gentlemen. I only use this to

illustrate the point to which ultrafanatics will go to try to convict someone of some petty crime. Gen

tlemen of the jury, my instructions to you will be brief. In every instance in a trial of this nature, the burden of proof is on the side of the prosecution. They must establish

every accusation by trusty and tried witnesses or else dismiss their contentions as unproven. In this instance, the prosecution has not produced a single proof. The nearest they. came was in the testimony of the young man, who later denied his own story. All the rest was hearsay. Even if we believed Mr. Peterson to be. guilty which we do not we could not fine him unless the pre

ponderance of evidence was on the side of the prosecution. Legally, gentlemen, we cannot convict a man

on circumstantial evidence of this

nature. My Instructions would be,

bring in a verdict of 'not guilty,' and

thus vindicate the rights of a citizen as well as removing a stigma from

the name of a friend and neighbor!"

The jury was out five minutes and

returned with a decision. Mr. Peter

son was fined "one dollar and costs,"

the costs probably depending on how

much each juror charged for his services. Taylor arose and loft the TnTilding in disgust. "The bar of justice!" he said to himself; "the trial by jury! The righteousness of the courts! Good Lord, what's a country coming to when it's run by lawyers!"

was married to a small-town lawyer who snored, and all that, and had a kid tagging around after her? Believe me! If I'm ever married to an old fogy and some swell guy like Cedric comes along and talks love like he did, I'm skipping, no matter what folks say!" "Same here! And you notice that

the modern writers don't use all that

mush about love and being true that our grandmas had to read. They write about folks after they're married, how they get along, how blissfully unhappy they are, and bow they fall in love with each other's husbands. Married folks must have one darn time! And as to love and

kisses, there ain't nothin' to love

anyway, and I can kiss every boy in this town whenever I want to. I

have kissed mostof them" "Bet you haven't kissed Bill Petrie," put in one. The other hissed her contempt. "Bill! Psst! No, and I don't want to! Long-haired sissy, so nicetynice. Aims to be a preacher, I guess!"

"Bill's cute," said her friend soberly, "and lots of girls I know would like to go with him. But he says we're all too young to be having beaus. Says we'll all be married by the time we're eighteen by goin with the boys so young." "Stuff!" snapped the other, "marriage is the last thing for me. I'm going to have a good time and then go into the movies. That's the career for a young woman who has a photographic face. Big pay, work

that is fascinating, lots of fun

KLANSMAN COMMITS A TERRIBLE CRIME (Continued from Page 1, Column 4) and the offender will be brought to justice. To this end a systematic search is to be carried out, to apprehend this criminal,' who has so vio

lently and feloniously violated an ordinance which was enacted some years ago to protect local merchants from the influx of handbills and placards advertising cut price sales by Jewish merchants in Louisville, across the river.

Chapter III THIS l-XTOWARD GENERATION'

O.

Toward the middle of the fall term the superintendent of the city schools found himself rather busy.

He had several ward schools under his supervision as well as the Central high school. There were also four colored schools temporarily under his oversight, owing to the resignation of his assistant. He began to take note of the fact that he was called upon oftener than usual to discipline the pupils. Westward reported a band of unruly girls who had named themselves the Happy Dozen. They ranged In age from twelve to sixteen and were all

old enough to be in high school,

though none of them were. He was summoned by the teacher,

a pale young woman, who went

home the day before on the verge of

nervous prostration. When he went to counsel with them he found the recalcitrants huddled together in

the guests' waiting room, talking

and laughing uproariously. Before

entering, henaused outside the door to catch the trend of their conversation. They were discussing literature and art! Surely a band of girls so dispositloned did not need to be brought before the superintendent for correction. Modern literature seemed to be the present theme of discussion. Said one: "I'll

tell you, kid, the books nowadays hare got more pep than they used to have. Why, Just read Morgenthau's

'Dorthea.' Some class to that book."

"Pshaw," scorned another, "Yoti

haven't read much when you've read

'Dorthea.' You ought to read

'Broadway.' It's rippin'."

The other spoke in a tone of dis

gust. "Stuff! I've read that book

or tried to. I think it's dull. But

s-a-a-y, ain't Catherine true to life?

Did you read where she wanted to

run away with that good-lookinp

young Jew a-', couldn't, because ghi

"Flora, did you see the 'Wings of

the Locust? That's where Palermo, the Italian, ran', away with the American's wife. An old preacher came out and meddled his bill in it. They soaked him with an egg and got awajv. Then, they were married on deck as the boat pulled out. 'The husband was all wrought up I mean the American husband and wanted

to kill the dago. But kind old Father O'Brien showed him the better way. But say, that was one pretty scene where the Prince took his stolen bride in his arms and kissed her!"

"I like the 'Pride of a Mother' best," said Flora, "That was where the girl went nutty over a young millionaire. Of course, he made a fool of her. Then there was a child, you know. Of course, her friends threw her over. She went down to see her preacher and found him in his study. While he was praying with her she saw two big bottles of whisky in his pockets. Then she

was disgusted and decided to kill herself. She was on her way to the river to jump in when the Sisters of the Good Shepherd Convent " "But wasn't that dance some scene? My! If I had clothes like them! But, as the girl said, 'You have to pay the price.' "

Into this maudlin chain of wasted words Professor Taylor broke abruptly. The girls giggled, nudged each other and winked. "So you've come down to repri

mand us, have you, Prof.?" asked Flora. "Well, you ain't got no darned easy job. I knew old snipenose was up to something when she sent us in here. Oh, ves,we're bad

little girls. We're regular fellers! What's first, old top?" Taylor was a favorite among all the pupils and was used to being "kidded." as they termed it, goodhumoredly. But such brazen insolence and lack of respect as this

stunned him. He regarded them a few moments before he spoke. Five heads were in a row. Five shocks of bobbed hair, waving roguishly; five laughing faces besmeared with powder and rouge; ten starry eyes; five dresses of striking similarity of cut and material. "Five women to be material for potential greatness, but of uncertain and

cloudy future. "Girls, I am ashamed of you!" he said. "For the past few minutes I have been listening to your conversation. It pained me to hear you talking glibly of things you should know nothing about. The books of the kind you were discussing ought

not to be allowed on the shelves of our public libraries and those films ought to be censored out of exist

ence. I am sorry that you degrade yourselves by witnessing such pictures." "Oh, come off," snapped Flora, im

petuous as Peter and spokesman for the coterie, "I guess I didn't see you and Gene Karraker at the Bijou Sunday night, witnessing 'Riffraff' and

at the Hippodrome to see 'Bad and Worse' Monday night, and last night prayer meeting night at the

Rialto to see Billy Cohen in 'The Booze Smugglers.' Oh, Prof., you

ain t no saint! " i Taylor was speechless. So he had been under their surveillance after all. Strange he had never seen any of the girls at the theaters. Strange he had never discerned any of those objectionable features which seemed to appeal to them so strongly. Flora's Indictment was sadly true. He had

attended the motion picture theaters

to the exclusion of church services; had passed up many Interesting club meetings and other attractions to witness the cinema drama. He had paid many a half-dollar to see a big-

rfooted tramp act a fool in front of a

camera for a huge salary, when the

same tramp on the street would have been obnoxious to him. He had the movie habit.

"Well, girls, what you say is to a

great extent true," he said, rather humbly; "1 do attend the theaters a great deal, too much, perhaps. But

I promise you that hereafter I am

going to be an exemplar as well as a

preceptor. I am of the opinion that you children, and the young people in general today, need good, wholesome

advice more than you need tryanny

and abuse. The day is past when the

father cowhides his wayward daugh

ter or erring son, and it is well that it is past. Discipline, enforced by orporal punishment, while it had

some merits, has proved a failure.'

Search to Be Inaugurated Chief Cole intends, it is said, to

carry-out a thorough and systematic search to the end that the alleged Klan criminal be apprehended and brought to justice, and his first efforts will be directed to a joint on Spring street, not 100 feet away from the police department, and he may also visit certain roadhouses which -have been unmolested heretofore by

both city and county officials. It is even intimated that possibly this arch criminal has been responsible for the youth of Jeffersonville being furnished with "moonshine" and "redeye," as well as ruining the lives of the fair womanhood of southern Indiana. Every effort will be

made to bring him to justice. Additional search will be carried out at Ed Cottril's place at 119 West Court street, and it is intimated that the next place on the program will be T. A. Edwards, Fourteenth and Spring streets. It is thought possible that in his violent haste to evade arrest the alleged Klansman stopped here for "oil and gas." Those who are in position to know suggest to Chief Cole that this alleged Klan law violator might be found at any of the following places: Pat Gavin's place, Joe Quin's place,

136 Spring street; H. L. Jones', 453 Spring street, or C. A. Bonifer's, Wall and Court streets, just one block from the police station, or at the roadhouse run by John Knowlan, on the Utica pike. Possibly this alleged Klansman. who would be such a law violator as to commit the crime of actually tacking a signr on a telephone pole, fled to the hotel at Spring and Front streets, run by Joe O'Neil. in search of something to steady his nerves after dodging the police so successfully. Possibly he went from here to Walter Cisco's place, 729 Wall street, where he met some of the numerous

girls who are reported to come and go at all hours from this particular address. Intelligent search of these premises ought to be possible by Chief of Police Cole, as he ran this very place for several years before becoming chief of police, and if he is not familiar with all the secret doors, secret panels and other hiding spots, he might secure information from former Chief of Police Walter Cisco. There is nothing to it. This alleged Klan criminal must be apprehended, and the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, always co-operating with the dulyconstituted officers of the law, are going to aid Chief of Police Cole in

every way possible, and therefore

suggest that a call be made at John

Madden's, 1109 Market street, or John Lloyed's, Sixth and Michigan

streets, or he might have left Lloyed's

place to. go over to No. 633 Michigan avenue for "more gas." In order that no stone be left unturned, and in order to render complete co-operation to Chief of Police Cole in the apprehension of this al

leged Klan criminal, we suggest that search be made at Lafayette Monroe's, Sixth and Michigan streets, and at the same time someone should call at J. J. Fredrick's, 1702 North Spring street, or he might have

stopped at the old saloon at the corner of Court and Wall streets, which would bring the chief of police back, at the end of a weary and tiresome

day, to within one square of the police station. If he is unable to locate the culprit and is not entirely worn out and completely exhausted after this frying ordeal, and still sober, he might again start out, on the theory that this alleged Klan criminal In his

haste to get away, might have burst

his suspenders, and in an effort to secure new ones stopped at a little

department store between Seventh

and Eighth streets on Spring street, to "buy new ones." This place was recently raided by government men, and it is possible this alleged Klan criminal went there-to tip off an ad

ditional raid, or after running so fast in his efforts to evade Chief Cole he may have developed a taste for speed and stopped at Pete Elliot's place to get a little information on the races.

and recover sufficient money to pay his fine for violation of a city ordinance, in case the chief should be successful enough to cause his arrest. Those who are in the "know" suggest that possibly this alleged Klan criminal, who would commit such a

heinous crime as to tack a sign on a

telephone Dole, might be implicated

in the drunken condition of several young girls whose ages range from 15 to 19 years, who have been seen

at Newt. McCaslen's place recently.

Maybe it was this self-same criminal

who broiiEht these girls from jener

sonville. and whfle they were intoxi

cated tacked up this sign advertising a Klan meeting at Wabash, just to throw dust in the eyes of Chief Cole while he committed these other

heinous crimes.

BOND OF LEO HOGAN IS SET AT $20,000 (Continued from Page i. Column 1) diana, as a student of Indiana University, he was recording secretary of the Knights of Columbus and

prominently identified with the bigger lights in that order, including John O'Donnell. San Pierre, the home of Hogan and where the shooting took place, is a French Catholic settlement and is presided over by Father Van Rie,

of North Judson, a town nearby. Significant, and believed to be important, conversation was held by

Hogan with Owen Daily, a Knight of Columbus, before the shooting took place. Hogan also talked with John Dolezal and Fred Arntz, both prominent Catholics, before the affair that landed him behind prison bars on two serious offenses. It is rumored that the statement was made that "Something would happen in Starke county." On this

same night similar occurrences took place in different parts of the country, the opposition storming an- alleged Klan meeting in New Jersey and stoning those in attendance and crying "Lynch him," when the speaker attempted to talk.

Is this all a carefully laid plan to discourage attendance at meetings held by American citizens throughout the Middle West? The answer to this question can only be answered by subsequent events.

REV. BLAIR SPEAKS AND KLAN PARADES

KLANSMEN PARADE AT SEYMOUR, EST).

Liberty, - Ind., May 5. On last Wednesday night, Rev. Wm. M. Blair, of Plainfield, stood high on the court house steps and delivered an address, "Americanism and the Ku Klux Klan." A large erowd comDosed of

citizens from this city, College Corner, Richmond, Connersville, Aurora, Oxford and the surrounding territory,

listened for more than two hours while the speaker spoke on the principles of the Klan. "Before the speech approximately four hundred Kalnsmen paraded headed by the Richmond Klan band.

An auto bearing a big electric fiery.

cross matte its way along the line of march.

Seymour, Ind., May 5. A short parade was held by the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan here Friday night, in which seventy-five, masked Klansmen walked in line. An uplifted fiery cross, lit by electricity vn.s carried at the head of the parade. Lack of extra robes prevented hundreds of visiting Klansmen from par-. ticipating in the affair. Tne streets of this city were lined with spectators and numbers came from out--lying cities to- witness the parade. . Klansmen from thi's county, Columbus, Scottsburg, Btoe-nirngton and Bedford, are known- t - have been in line, there- being ten each from Columbus and Bloomington.

Klan Shows Strength That the Ku Klux Klan is strong in Starke county is evinced by their activities in bringing to justice bootleggers and other law violators. The apprehension recently of automobile thieves led to the discovery of an arson plot. Other information is said to be before the grand jury and

arrests will be made shortly. The members of the Klan here are leading business and professional men of unusually high character, and the local organization is composed of determined and law-abiding citizens. It has been intimated that a mass of information pertaining to the crime of Hogan and other law violations is to be placed before te grand jury.

Wild Ride of Alleged Klan Criminal

Continues If -this alleged criminal is guilty

of all the crimes that all the places he may have visited would indicate, certainly he must be apprehended and every avenue of information diligently searched out, and not a single place be overlooked. Should Chief of Police Cole's efforts to find him in any of the above1 mentioned places be entirely unavailing up to this time, we suggest that on Friday of any given week that he visit Wid Hydron's place at Court and Pearl streets, and from there

step over to Frank Herfel's soft drink parlor and secure refreshments and at the same time investigate the

premises on the theory that Hydron needs - a "mechanic" to look after

certain "mechanical devices" operat

ing in his place.

The last information obtained per

Klan criminal was after he had

visited Jack Delanty's at Tenth and
