Grand Goblin Reprimanded
K. K. K. Leader Here for Sending Such Letter
The letter containing a threat received by J. H. Clarke, former proprietor of the Valencia hotel, two weeks before he left Anaheim, was definitely linked up with the Ku Klux Klan today by Dist. Atty. A. P. Nelson, of Orange-co., following a conference yesterday with Dist. Attorney Thos. Woolwine in Los Angeles.
The connection was made through a copy of a letter signed by the Los Angeles officials from the Klan headquarters following the Inglewood outrage. In the letter the grand Goblin of the Klan severely n priman-

RECEIVED BY J. H. Clarke, former proprietor of the Valencia hotel, two weeks before he left Anaheim, was definitely linked up with the Ku Klux Klan today by Dist. Atty. A. P. Nelson, of Orange-co., following a conference yesterday with Dist. Attorney Thos. Woolwine in Los Angeles.
The connection was made through a copy of a letter issued by the Los Angeles officials from the Klan headquarters following the Inglewood outrage. In the letter the trand Goblin of the Klan severely primarized the Orange-co. Klan leaders for sending such a letter, maintaining that the Orange-co. Klan was not yet supposed to write threat ning letters.
The Grand Goblin also called off a "party"—the quotation marks are copied from the letter—in which it was stated Klansmen would not put on their robes until outside of town. The letter did not specify what town.
Dist. Atty. Nelson announced he had obtained a few more names of Orange-co. klansmen. He did not specify how many in addition to his first list which contained slightly more than 200 names or which ten were in Anaheim.
Nelson had nothing further to say today in regard to the denial of his charge that L. R. James, a Nick Harris detective, was a member of the Klan.
Nick Harris, proprietor of the Los Angeles detective agency of the same name which has branches in Santa Ana and elsewhere, today gave out a statement, following his interview with L. R. James, his Santa Ana manager, in which he quoted James as saying that, while he had once applied for membership in the Ku Klux Klan, so far as James knew the application never had been acted upon. Harris added that he would further investigate the charge that James was a member.
James was accused of being a member by District Attorney A. P. Nelson of Orange county, following James' visit to Herman J. Efker, Anaheim merchant, and offer to run down the source of a Klan letter which Efker received.

HEY, SKINNAY, GOT YOUR CAN READY?
This is something more, kids, about that matinee of yours at the Fairyland Theater tomorrow.
You know most of us are too busy earning a living and haven't the time to see most places, so instead of our going to the places, the places are brought to us, so to speak. Not the actual places, of course but things that look like them. That's what a picture is—something that looks like a place or a person, real or imagined.
At the Fairyland tomorrow all you've got to do is present a nickel and a clean tin can to be admitted.
The can is to remind you that you can help like everybody else in keeping yards and houses clean or making them so. All over the nation May is the clean up and paint up month.
The matinee is arranged by the Plain Dealer and the theater management. Be on hand promptly with clean hands, faces and tin-cans.
CITY WILL OFFER $80,000 BOND ISSUE
City council last night instructed City Atty. Ames to prepare resolution by next meeting for sale or $80,000 outfall sewer bonds. By this time the money is available, it is probable that contracts will be let as it is the intention of the Anaheim and Santa Ana councils to push the improvement as fast as possible before the next rainy season.
The bonds will be five per cents instead of six, the rate of the last city bond issue.
It is estimated that Anaheim's share of the outfall, with engineering, legal and right-of-way costs, will be about $70,000.
Anaheim will not offer for sale now the bonds with which the line from here to the conjunction with Santa Ana's will be built.

Lloyd George’s Cousin Resident of Anaheim
Santa Ana has a sister of President Harding and Anaheim isn't so far behind for we have a first cousin of Premier Lloyd George of England. He is Mr. Charles E. Jones, of No. Lemon-st, prominent rancher and director of the Anaheim Citrus Fruit Assn. and one of the Anaheim National bank, it became known today.
Both Lloyd George and Jones came from the mining district of Wales. Jones, of course, knew that he had relatives by the name of Lloyd George but he didn't know until recently that the premier was his first cousin.
