Charles Mueller, whose death | curred Saturday, was a man who got a great deal of satisfaction from the oc- . better things in life, enriching his in- ner self by‘an appreciation of fine 'paintings and fine music. Although the fact was known only to a few| con- | . intimates, Mr, Meuller was a noisseur of art and could appraise the worth of a painting with a fi- j delity enjoyed only by those who de-| wvote their lives to studying this sub- | Ject. As a musician, Mr. Mueller had a| background formed through familiar- izing himself with the works of the| personal ac- of the fore- He was a was the masters and through quaintance with some most composers of Furope. student of the violin, and owner of two instruments which said to be among the most valuable in this part of the gountry.

The eastern half of the state hecame democratic, the western half republican, In a medi- | ‘rea forgs this division of the state eb- taing te this day. The western ’lfl | of the state is still one block of ye- | | publicanism In an gtherwise “solid south” of democracy, During she Civil War naturally the animosities between these two parts | of the state became very pronounced, | After the war had been concluded po- | litieal differences still persisted Paorious issucs; and local factions, or-| beanized as Ku Klux Kians, Guerrillas | | or Bushwhackers as they were locally | termed, abounded, and perpetuated | m- breaeh in a wide, open form. To ‘ republican, to a demoerat, was & duruvr' to be a democrat, to & u~| | publican, was a stigma of shame, A man of very radical politieal con- | vietions was overtaken and accosted | by a squad of Bushwhackers one dly. | “"Are you a democrat or a republls | lean?" Unfortunately hg frankly in«| n| formed them that he was @ republi-| can, | | As the group of Bushwhackers wera ‘m mocrats, they tried him on the | eharge which he had confessed, found , him guiity and the grand wizard decld- | ed that & man who was mean enough to stoop so low as to be a republican| should have a flogging. This was im- mediately and vigorously lfll‘nlnllltl’-i' ed, The poor man resumed his journey. Soon he found himself again face to face with another knot of Bushwhack- ors, Agaln the gquestion was, Are you a democrat or a republican?” Recalling his past but fresh exper- lenee, and hoping by changing his & swer to avold another flogging, he answered, I am a démocrat.” This time, however, the Bush-| whackers were republicans. The mas- | ter of ceremonies proceeded to pass sentenge upon his criminal, saying that & man who was so degraded and low as to be a demoecrat deserved talls. These were administered with A strong hand. . In a body of pain and bordering on physical exhaustion, the man of our| story pursued his way feebly. Once more he met a body of Bushwhack- ers who immediately put to him the fatal question, “Are you a democrat| or a pepublican?" Under violence already experienced and which menaced again, the man of stable, honest convictions political- ly, cowardly answered, ‘‘Gentlemen, 1 am whatever you are!” He went on unwhipped, but a coward with a| guilty conscience, { This a story of fact. Kiction finds no place in it. That such conditions | ever obtained even temporarily in this | land of the brave and the free, is a matter of shame. The Ku Klux Klan, as originally organized, was sociopo- litical in nature, and was an after- math of the Civil War. It bitterly op- posed the reconstruction measures of the government, and its membership at that time were practically in every state of the south. It was guilty of violence, murder and arson,’ In 1871 strong measures were. taken to sup- press it, and it finally perished. In 1915 the Ku Klux Klan was born | again in Atlanta, Georgia, and in 1921 it had a membership of 800,000. It claims to be 100 per cént American, which means by authentic interpre- tation, “Native born, white, protestant Americafl. The World war naturally | gave it a new birth and accelerated its growth. But we plead that America is the ground of freedom. Under our flag we have the right to be what we | want politically and religiously. We can be a democrat or republican without state inquisition; we can be Catholic or Protestant—we can be anything or nothing. This liberty has been dearly bought and we cannot af- ford to lose it. Let this country be a land of political and religlous con- troversy, but not persecution. COMMUNICATED Why ngh School Students )hl.st\Blly. Their Books, .

DISCUSSION POSTPONED (B - Greco-Italian Muddle Again Put Over Some Future of For Discussion at Mecting of League, By The Associated Press. Geneva, Sept. 17.—Discussion in the council of the league of nations of the question of the league's cdmpetency in the dispute between Italy and Greecc was postponed until tomorrow after at! M. Politls, the representatives re- gpectively of Ttaly and Greece. When the meeting opened Hjalmar T'ranting of Sweden, declared the Ital- ian occupation of Corfu was contrary to the provisions of the league coven- ant and might establish a dangerous precedent, affecting the prestige of the league . Lord Robert Cecil said the council | had done everything it should have dcna in the Greco-Italian controversy and had seized upon every means to | obtain a settlement which he added, was the great ohject set forth in the covenant. The council very properly had not rushed the matter, but had collaborated with the eonference of ambassadors in Parls. Lord Robert adm%’tcd that the questien of the lcaguds competency which had heerr raised by Ttaly was | grave and could not be left unsettied, He appealed to the league and to Italy to reach a solution which would not infringe the national pride ol Ttaly and at the same time would leave unimpaired the authority of the league upon which to a great cxtent he believed the future hopes of the world were centered. th C. of 13 BASTERN STAT IS, EXPOSITION Springfield, Mass., 'c!*p! 17.— Gov- ernors of five castern states and. the official representatives of five other states were guests at the Bastern States exposition today and after an informal inspection of the grounds and exhibits were entertained at luncheon at the grounds by Governor Cox of Massachusetts, EVERETT TRUE wu\r '.DON'T Youv Use ‘(oug FORK TO GAT THOSE PEAS ¢ EATING PeAs WITH A r SPOON |T ERY = community house, September 29, Bhistol asked to church at automobiles which- W Bridgeport, Plainville, Haven, chester, N.
