The puiposo of this editorial, how ever, la no attack on Major Craves. We instead rather wish to congratu late him on the stand he has taken now with regards to tha Ku Klux. But doubtless the Klan will adopt ecntaihiiig like the above answer to defend itself against the repudiation of Mujor Ciuvea. The KUn will more than likely axaert that Bruce Craven joined with selfish motives, ' with political ambition, but found that the Ku Klux Klan failed to bo of the nature he thought it to be, and bi cause he wae denied the power he dreamed of, he quit and being sore, be gave it the bawling out of ill young life. But the statements made by Major Craven are too roneluxiva, too detail 'cd, too b.oad and full, lo bo quee itioned, and the eyes of North Caro lina at least ought to be opened to ice that the Ku Klux Klan ought net <o exist And, for that matter, the order doee no longer exist, in this state, for before resigning hie offlee, he need the pewig he was conferred with, and Major Cravun disbanded the Ku Klux Klan in North Carolina j-et it remain disbanded. If the an ' ewer that thy Klan will make to Broca I Craven a true, the evil qf the ordei is discernible, and if the answer is untrue )fce ayil of the order is also plain aa day. The Ku Kia« Klan urijl never b. a fuccew. Its bait days in over, and the future it dark and dtoary.
