KUKLUX KLAN ORGANIZED.
Georgia Men Determine to Protect
Women from Negroes.
ATLANTA. A UK. 2fi.Spuri'(d by
the advicn of the Atlanta News, owned
by Col. James V. EukMsIi. .Ir., Gov
ernor Terrell's chief of staff, the w hile
men of Atlanta and the suburban
towns have begun to organize a
Kiiklux Klan to avenge attacks on
white women by negroes.
In the last two weeks six white
girls have been attacked by negroes in
Atlanta anil l(s suburbs, and one lie
Kro has been lynched, the others hav
ing escaped. The assault which led
the citizens to organize a Kuklux Klan
was committed Friday night in the
western part of tha city, Miss Kate
Waite, 1X years old, a schol teacher,
being the victim.
All that night and yesterday while
men armed with rifles patrolled the
negro settlements in search of Miss
Waite's assailant. It was announced
that the formation of a Kukliix "KTan
had been determined upon to protect
while women.
The business men of Atlanta have
offered a large sum to aid in the pro
tection of white women, and this
money will be placed at the klan's dis
posal. The feeling between the races
is bitterer than it has been in years,
and conservative citizens fear there
may be serious trouble.
MAIN REVENUE OFFICE.
Winston-Salem Still Strong Factor In
the Race, Says Washington Corres
pondent. This city has not given up hope of
securing the Internal revenue collec
tor's office. Manufacturers who nay
more than three-fourths of the tax In
the district are located here and it
would be to their Interest to have the
office in the Twin-City. It Is an
nounced that the acting commissioner
of Internal revenue has recommended
that the office be moved from Ashe-
vine.
The Washington correspondent
the Raleigh News and Observer says:
'Statesvllle'a claims are opposed by
Winston-Salem, which has made a
strong showing and Is not out of the
race by any means. One thing seems
clear, and that Is there Is a disposition
among revenue officials lo move the
office from Ashevilie. There is no par
ticular objection to Ashevilie, but
the-e ig a feeling that the collector s
office ought to be more centrally
located for the rest of the district."
Reported Rumors to Effect That New
Line Is to Be Built from Here to
Greensboro.
The following is from this morn
ing's Greensboro Industrial News:
. For weeks past mere nave neen ru
mors in the air about new steam rail
way being built which would affect
Greensboro very materially. It was
learned that certain parties here and
in Winston were figiiiing together and
the rumor went so far as to say that
ihe right of way had been seemed and
that the road was a certainty.
The rumor also connected the name
of a very prominent and wealthy west
crn senator with the project, ami de
clared that he had put up a large
check and was enthusisastic over the
prospect of the enterprise.
It was learned mat wniie some ol
the rumors were wrong that the most
of it was correct and that the man
who could give Tellable information
about the matter was E. P. Wharton.
il'lwwi Mr Wh;irtn n-iia (ion ho
"said' frankly there was a gimd deal of
truth in the story. He was asked if
Senator W. A. Clark, of Montana, had
sent money here to back up the enter
prise and that the right of way for a
road between (irensboro and Winston
was being secured. To this .Mr. Whar
ton, with a smile, replied both "yes"
and "no" and in explanation went on
to say that Senator Clark had sent
money here in the interest of such a
connection, but that it had not been
used.
Mr. Wharton then volunteered to
write a brief account of the transac
tion. His letter proves that the smoke
in the air had been really occasioned
hy some considerable fire. Mr. Whar
ton's letter is as follows:
E. P. Wharton's Letter.
Greensboro, N. C. Aug. 27, lime
To the Editor of the Daily Industrial
News:
Dear Sir. Some time ago a number
of citizens were discussing a plan to
build a railroad from (Veensboro to
make connection "with some other
road so as to get railroad competition,
and I interested several men in a pro
ject to build a road to Winston. N. C,
believing if one would be built we
could make some connection with 'he
Norfolk and Western, and if no', we
could arra:.;e to continue the line to
a point where we could have some
competition. I wrote to Senator W. A.
Clark, of Montana, and he finally de
cided to come in with us and he went
so far as to mail his check to my
brother, J. R. Wharton, of Iiutte, Mont.
I at once wrote him that we would
give him sixty days notice before we
called upon him for any money, ai'ii
asked my brother to return the check
for the present. '
When I started to lay this matter
heforo my attorney, he slated to me
that he had been retained by parties
who had already made a preliminary
survey for this road and other exten
sions. I have therefore simply let the
matter stand where it was until we
could see whether or not Ihe road
would be built. I have every reason
to believe It will be built by Ihe par
ties who are now working on it, but
should it not, we stand ready to go
tight ahead with our plan and will
build the road from here to Winston.
I only make this statement because
your reporter had heard something
alniiit it ami simply wanted the facts.
Very truly yours,
E. P. WHARTON.
