Post-Dispatch for Job Work uU LIU A GIAiiiS ; , EOUIXED OUT TOO MUCH OPPOSITION OFFER ED TO EVAN'S GROUP. Atlanta, Ga., Jan. 11. William Joseph Simmons, founder and em peror of the Ku Klux Klan, and Ed ward Young , Clarke, at one time acting imperial wizard of the organ ization, have been banished from the klan for their active opposition to the regime headed by Dr. H. W. Evans, imperial wizard,- it was an nounced here today in klan circles. In a statement issued here, Clarke declared he was not surprised at the development, declaring that "the at tempt was made because Evans and his associates are desperate and real ize it is only fora short time they will be able to hold the reins of the organization and trample in the dust all the foundation, principles, and ideals of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan." He declared that neither Dr. Evans nor the imperial kloncilium nor the body of dragons has the legal right to banish either himself or Emperor Simmons, and asserted that the "real reason for the attemped banishment" was an effort to stop the gathering of klansmen at the national consrpss which he has called to meet in At lanta February 26. Officials at the imperial palace de clined to comment UDon the rpnnrt.pd expulsions, but confirmation of the reports here came from persons closely associated with Dr. Evans. It was, stated that the banishment was mada. after grand dragons rep resenting every state in the union had met in Washington two days ago and signed charges against the two official The order, it is understood, charged Clark with "actively at tempting to disrupt the organisa tion" and "allying himself with ene mies of .the order and bringing it into disrepute." The banjshment, it was stated, was a counter movement on the part of Dr. Evans and his administration to the fight waged against him by the Simmons faction which reached a climax recently when Mr. Clarke di rected a letter to President Cool idge, asking that steps be taken to reform a certain "element;" in the organization er else that it be dis banded. It is understood it was ctiarsd that Mr. Clarke's letter to the Presi dent "constitutes treason" in that it was an attempt "to disband and break up the order and bring it into disrepute." . . , . Members of the Simmons faction stated today that the imperial head quarters of the klan had been moved from here to Washington. This was denied by imperial offi cia's here and those, representing the order in the nation's capital. SPRING LAMBS ARE COMING Handle Them Right and Keep Them Growing, Say Livestock Expert. Raleigh, N. C, Jan. 14. Spring lambs were reported from both Pen der and Halifax counties the first week in December. Such lambs, rightly handled, may be cashed at almost any of the home markets for more money than the yew herself is worth. Lambs are also arriving more freely now in other eastern Carolina counties. "The aim f the producer should be to place these lambs on the Eas ter market," says G. P. Williams, sheep field agent for the State Col lege and Department of Agriculture. "To keep.a lamb thriving he should not be allowed on old pastures where sheep have been running last sum mer and this winter. Put hjm on fall sown oats or rye, but if the sheep must run on old grass, it is better to keep the lambs up during the day while the eweare grazing. "By slatting off a corner of the sheep shed so the lambs may enter and eat a ration of grain by them selves the ewes may be easily sep arated in the morning and the lambs will be given a strong boost towards the Easter market without being al lowed to roam old pastures that are sure to be wormy. Shelled corn or whole oats make a first class feed for young lambs. Grind it if you prefer, but grinding is not neces sary. In fact, successful producers of famous hot-house lambs for our eastern hotel trade seldom grind these feeds. Lambs, a, month old or less, are delighted to grind their own corn and oats, and- the troughs re main in a more appetizing condition when whole grains are fed. Make the lambs good and do it quickly is the secret of success with early lambs." Cottonseed. Highest prices paid for your cottonseed. J. E.
