If so, why thq. necessity of hiding thcif' facbs, of coining; at midnight and of breathing out threatenings ngainst tho public of ficers? If their real object was to pre vent tlroving , they would have come in tho bright light of day, and then they would have beou assisted by cvory hon est man in Orangeburg. I urn not going to be intimidated from speaking tho truth. I always have artd always shall defend every citizen in what is lawful and orderly, so that they shall have protection for their lives, their liberty nnd thoir property. "Every man's house is hie castle," and the strong arm of tho Government will bo used to protect you, your wives and children. Tho Republican party is charged with fostering dishonesty. Thcro is, no doubt that thero arc, dishonest men in that party; but aro thero not likewiso dishonest mcu in the Democratic party 1 All parties have their sharo of dishon esty. There may bo dishonest men in the Legislature. I don't propose to defend any of these, and will not give them my support. Tho peoplo have a remedy for all this, which is plain, adequate and complete. Not in midnight assassina tion ; not by burnings aud stripes. You can't remedy it by killing colored mcu, or by abusing; and ill-treating them, i If tho object of this K Ian is to kill lot (them take tho thieves, but let alone the jinnoccnt man, whoso only crime is fealty jto the party which gave hint freedom. Hut, no matter what may be a man's crime, it is no just cause for his murder. There is no excuse forgoing into a man's house tit night, taking him out from \\U family and brutally murdering hTtii. Ii' any of the Democratic party know <?l any di^honc t net dotlo by officials, let them go to the grand jury, which is the most terrible engine that can bo brought against them. Aud now. it there are any ol this Klan within the sound of my voice, I can tell them, that, when they kill even n dishonest man, their crime is locked upon by the courts hero below, and thnt*highcr Tribunal above, as a foul and bloody murder. .My follow citizens, lot mo advise you /to call upon Governor Scott for pr?tec jtion. It is his duly to afford it; but my friends, I am almost doubtful if that duty will ho performed. If ho does re fuse, call on the President of tho United States, -General Untnt will r,co that tho laws arc thoroughly executed. Those laws will protect you. Hear what the law known ns the "Ku Klu>: Bill says. A part of section two of this law read.-, tu follows : "If any person go in dtsguiso npon the public highway or upon the premi ses of another, for tho purpose, Cither directly or indirectly, of depriving any person or class of persons of the eijual protection of the laws, or of equal prir ilegct or immunities vudcr tlw lairs, or for the. purpose of 'preventing or hinder ing the. constituted authorities of any State from 'giving or securing to ml per sons within such State the equal protec tion of the laws, or shall conspire together for th" purpose of in any manner im peding, hindering, obstructing, or def at ing the due course of justice in any Stale or Territory, with intent to deny to any citizen of the United States the due and equal protection of the Artcs, or to injure, any person in his person or kisproperty for lawfully enforcing the right of any person or class of persons to the. equal pro teetion ef the laws, <fv., each and every person so offending shall be deemed guilty of a high crime, and, upon o~n viction thereof in any district or circuit ^ court of the United States or district or supreme court of any Territory of the United States having jurisdiction of similar offences, ?hall bo punished by a line not loss than five hundred nor more than livo thousand dollars, or bv imnris u..u>Wb, wuh or Without hard labor, as tho court may determine, lor a period of net less thuti six months nor more than six years, as the court tuny determine, or by both such ^icnml imprisonment net tho court ehall d*cri$iriiir*? ^ ^ I If thero aro any of this .MystXndV fOrdtfa^.ryont icjsj, ty-j^y^ Jk* t me say* to them, that strps are even uo\r being taken to ferret out every one of tlx in. (The most of you are known, and if it takes live years', every one of yon will ho brought to justice. It is Governor .Scott's duty to seo thu'i this is done. It makes no dili'orence whether a man is a "carpet-bagger," a "scalLwng" or a colored man, ii he is honest aud compe tent, wc have a right to place him in any position to which we may see lit aud pro per to call him ; and it may as well.be distinctly understood here ti-iny, that we intend to exorcise that Vight wit!,on! any regard'to the threatenings or actions of th j Ku Klux Klun. If all outside so?rces of protection fail, wc have n remedy within ourselves. That a party, which in this State fcuein majority of thirty thousand, should BuO* mit to such outrageous organizations, is astonishing. Governor Scott owes it tir every ono^Ku Kfux well V: o?oM^te. 0 %er%. have thit? order put down at once. Now, what is our condition here? Thoro are two blucks to every white man. Can these two submit to tJr?Awio r\-f*The time is not fur distant v^heujvfor c\ifejj-y otfc 1murdered by the Ktt Klpx Klan dm <?f their number, (.r *i/nipathk<r.<, will suf fer. When that time docs come, who will be held responsible before the world fcr all the wues and afllietious which it will entail ttpnl us ? It is said that the good people of this place are not in any sympathy with this Organization. I don't believe all of them nie, but thoj fact of one hundred and !';,'. 'ty a iued and* disguised men entering the tpwn nt mudnigjit^ avud no effort being put forth for their detection by these yotnt citizen*, shows thai, nt least, tin at* mo.-tt passive or criminal acquiescence in their helli-di ohjceis exists. (They believe that such an organization will destroy the Republican party. They know not the struugth ol this party, which stands by the principles rather! than men. It was this party, my col ored friends, that, advocated the loosen ing of jour chains, when you were pow erless* tp place any one \n office. Keep jtruo to the purty ol' your liberation. Cast behind you the sophistry of the Democrat io party. All the rights yon enji?y this day you received thr< ugh the mighty efforts of tho Republican purty, and it will be as true to you ns was Kulli ul',old, who said. ??
