It is said that a local lodge of the Ku Klux Klan was organized last night at Dunn’s Hall on the Boulevard, with about 40 members.
The matter was the subject of much discussion on the streets today. It is known that a meeting was held last night and the night before, and as near as it could be learned, the meeting was called for that purpose.
The membership, it was said, was made up from men from the three towns.
About a year ago there was some talk of klan here, but it was understood that no steps were taken to organize a lodge until recently.
