trict Court, and defining its jurisdiction.
He considered some each Court indispen
sably necessary, and wanted time for
some substitute to bo devised. The mo
tion was lost.
Mr. Brown offered tho following
Whereas, It has been ullcged by cer
tain politicians, North and South, who
esteem the success of the party to
which they belong, ond the accomplish
ment of their political purposes more
highly than the peace, happiness and
prosperity of the country, that there ex
ists in this and other Southern States,
certain lawless bonds of persons common
ly called Kuklux, who ure banded to
gether for political purposes, and are in
the habit of committing great outrages
upon the pcacable and law-abiding citi
zens of the oountry, and that tho State
Courts fail and refuse to afford sufficient
redressjand,
Whereas, The CoDgressof the United
States, at the last session, appointed a
oommittee to investigate said alleged out
rages and violations of law; and,
Whereas, This Senate is satisfied that
no such political organization exists in
this State, and desires to afford said com
mittee all the aid and facilities in its
power, for the porposo of enabling the
said committee to arrivo at the truth
in rogard to ull the matters which it is
their duty to investigate; and,
Whereas, the Superior Court Judges
of this State (a large majority of whom
belong to the Republicuu party) preside
over the courts of every county in this
State, and have ample opportunity of
knowing how the law is being adminis
tered and enforced in the various ports
of tho State; and,
Whereas, the Senate fi* 'satisfied that
a large number of witnesses have been
called to testify boforo said committee
who aro not worthy of credit before any
Court or honest community ; for the pur
pose of making a record to be used for
tho accomplishment of certain political
cuds which greatly defames the people of
this State, and
Whereas, this Senate is satisfied that
the people of this State never were, at
any time, in tho history of this country,
more peaceable, quiet and law abiding
than they aro now; therefore,
Resolved, by tho Senate; That wo re
spectfully invite tho portion of said com
mittee which is now assembled in this
city to summon as witnesses, before them
all of tho Judges of the Superior Courts
of this State.
Resolved, That we pledgo ourselves to
S *ve to said committee and tho Courts of
o oountry, all the aid in our power to
enable them to investigate any outrages
or violations of law which may have been
committed against tho laws of this State
or the United States, and to bring tho
guilty parties to speedy justice.
