COLUMBUS, O., April 26. Charges
that E. E. Curtis, safety director of
Canton, who, with his brother, C. C. Curtis, is on trial before Governor A. V. Donahey for alleged lax law
enforcement, had shielded gambling
olaces. were made by police officers
and former police officers in testi-! mony offered at the hearing. A num
ber of bootleggers also testified they had paid money to Harry - Bouklis for protection. Burt Manderbaugh, member of the police vice squad, and Floyd Streitenber.ger, police detective, told of having attempted to arrest Jamea Glazier on a gambling charge. They said Glazier told them he was "sopposed to run," and that he asked to be taken to Safety Director Curtis' home about 2 o'clock in the morning. Taken there, Streitenberger said, the safety director asked him if it would be all right to let Glazier go. He
said Glazier was released, but stopped operation. Questioned by Governor Donahey Streitenberger said he did not feel that he had the honest support of the safety director.' George Beresford, former policeman, told of having arrested Nick Magris on a gambling charge, but he dropped the case after having learned that he would be dismissed If he pressed it, he said. He said he did this on advice of his counsel after having learned that the safety direc
tor planned to file charges against him. He was suspended after he resigned. On another occasion, he said.
a gambling house proprietor told him
not to come in, because there was
money on the table. Telling the story to the chief, Beresford said the ehief told him to wait till he talked to the safety director about the matter. Before anything was done, Beresford said, he was transferred to another beat. Frank S. Evans, deputy state prohibition commissioner, said he had found the city of Canton to be the worst for liquor law violation of any city he had visited since prohibition became effective. Nick Magris testified that he had paid Harry Turner a percentage of gambling receipts for bringing him trade, while George King, recently arrested and fined $1,500 on a liquor
charge, testified that he had paid
Turner $1 a gallon for protection.
Frank P. Hiner, steel manufac
turer, and Charles A. Stoblberg
former mayor, testified as to condi-! tions generally. Hiner said the city was "pretty wild" up until a couple of weeks ago, and that "law-abiding citizens were trying to get the Curtis brothers." Hiner said he did not believe an honest effort had been made to enforce the laws. Stohlberg, a member of the city civil service , commission, testified
that there was no justification for the suspension of Officer Benjamin Clark as an economy measure. So
far as he knew, he said, he believed laws were being enforced, although he admitted that he had very little opportunity to observe conditions.
(Boreas Publication and Education) WASHINGTON, April 26. The Lincoln (Neb.) Journal, a newspaper snpporteT of Senator Norrls; of that state, who was recently renominated by such large fig-urea, now gives prominence to a brand new explanation ot why Charles H. Sloan waa so badly defeated. Klansmen did it, according to the Journal ,Btory, which saya: "The supporters of Charles H. Sloan for senator are emphatic in their declaration that a material
factor in his overwhelming defeat at the hands of Senator Norris was the Ku Klux Klan. They claim to have positive proof that word was sent
out to the Klan members in the
state just before election day to vote solidly for Norris as 'a safe man.'
"It is not asserted that Senator Norris or anyone for him made any
tieup with the Klan, but that he was picked because the mother of Mr.
Sloan was a Roman Catholic and on
the ground that when he was a recent visitor in Rome he called with
a number of other tourists at the Vatican and had an audience with
the pope.
Mr. Sloan heard ot these stories being afloat the night before elec
tion, word having been sent him
from various parts of the state, but
he could do nothing at that time.
"That the Klan wa3 active in the primary election is indicated by the
numerous instances of flaming
crosses that were mysteriously dis
played in cities and towns on the
eve of the voting."
The power ot the Klan is slowly sinking in and people are beginning to sit up and take notice and realize
the truth.

THAW HELD AS SANE; NEW TRIALJS SOUGHT Evelyn Nesbit Has Papers Prepared for Motion for a Rehearing
Hamilton County Is Awaking
to the Fact That the Klan . Movement Grows
NEWPORT, Ky., April 26. Fiery crosses, the night-time emblem of the Ku Klux Klan, blazed forth from hillsides in many parts of Cincinnati and Hamilton county promptly at 11 o'clock Saturday night amid showers. It was the greatest display of burning crosses in the county since the Klan was organized. Aerial
bombs were discharged from Clifton Heights which added further attrac
tion to the burning crosses. According to an official statement of C. William Schmidt, executive secretary of the Klan in Hamilton county, 300 crosses were burned, just before and after midnight. Their purpose, he said, was to awaken those who believe in Americanism and to exemplify what Easter Sunday signifies to a Klansman.
Cincinnati s hills are made to order for the burning of crosses and the spectacular effect should bring
about the awakening of those who
believe in America.
PHILADELPHIA, April 26. Although he was declared sane and
fully capable of managing his affairs by a jury in common pleas court, after seven hours' deliberation, Harry K. Thaw was sent back to the Pennsylvania Hospital for Mental and Nervous Diseases, where he has been confined for the last seven years. After the verdict had been brought
in, William A. Gray, counsel for Evelyn Nesbit, Thaw's divorced wife, whose 13-year-old son was permitted to intervene in the trial, requested the usual four days in which to file a motion and reasons for a new trial. The motion was granted and Judge Monaghan, before whom the case was heard, held Thaw in the custody ot the court pending its disposition! No time was set for the hearing of the motion. Meanwhile, Thaw must remain in the asylum. In announcing that he would ask
for another trial, Gray said he also spoke for Arthur G. Dickson, coun
sel for the trustees of Thaw's estate, who also opposed his release.

ATLANTA, Ga., April 26. The
new industrial plant of the Knights
of the Ku Klux Klan has been offi
cially opened. The plant Is about one-half mile from the Imperial
Palace.
Dr. H. W. Evans, Imperial Wizard
gave an interesting talk to the em
ployes, officers and representatives
of the factory and printing plant, on
the evening previous to Its official opening, on how the plant came to be established. He explained how
the Klan had grown and the demand
for supplies had increased to such proportions that it was thought they
could manufacture their own mate
rials and do printing at a greatly reduced cost over what they had to
pay for these necessities.
He also spoke of how so many had
discouraged the venture when it had
first been considered, especially those outsiders who were interested in the contract being let for supplies
now manufactured by ourselves. Dr. Evans showed that instead of the dire results predicted, the venture had proved one of unparalleled suc
cess. - He sam tne savings maae since the factory and printing plant were established last September, have paid for every piece of machinery in operation and have just about paid for the buildings themselves and lots they stand on. The enterprise has not cost the Klansmen of the nation one cent. On the other hand, the prices of supplies have been materially reduced in some cases cut in half.
WALTON OUSTER CASE
BEFORE HIGH COURT
THE IMMIGRATION PERIL The World's Work for April contains a number of articles of unusual interest, but especially informing and thought-provoking is the article by Gino Speranza on the Immigration Peril.
Of every 1,000 boys and girls entering high school 561 leave before the end of the fourth year.
One of the bitterest fights in the
history of American jurisprudence
was brought into the Supreme Court
ot the United States at Washington
recently. The highest court in this
country reached for argument the appeal of former Governor John C. Walton, of Oklahoma, to set aside his impeachment by the Oklahoma
legislature. The federal district
court for western Oklahoma had refused to review the impeachment proceedings.
The proceedings ot the supreme court here were enlivened by the efforts of counsel for the former governor to have consideration of the appeal postponed. Counsel for the Oklahoma House of Representatives
and other defendants opposed the move. The appeal of the former governor was based on the ground that he had not received a fair and impartial trial in the impeachment proceedings. He alleged that the Ku Klux Klan and other influences predominated the Oklahoma House in his Impeachment and the Senate of that state in his trial. The lower federal courts refused to take jurisdiction in the matter on the ground, broadly, that the ques
tions involved were political and not judicial.

TRAVERSE CITY. Mich. A bridge club met at Traverse City: Most of the twelve matrons present sLgreed that they would have their hafrxbobbed were it not for their husbands. A barber and hairdresser were summoned, and the bridge game ended with the place being turned

That the voters of Washington will have a chance to determine whether they want the so-called Oregon school law on their statute books, Is the statement made by proponents of the Oregon law, regardless of the fact that the Oregon law has been held' unconstitutional in a state
court. It is the belief of those who want Washington's school children sent to public and not to private or parochial schools as a matter of law,
that the supreme court will reverse the decision of the lower court and
that the Oregon law will finally become effective in Oregon, and therefore, If passed, in Washington also. Several other states are understood
to be planning the submission of similar acts to their electorates, if the? appeal which has been taken to the supreme court is successful.
