" This sarcastic account of Mr. Godkin is entirely appropri- ate to many of the outrages charged against the Negroes from that day to our own. Dr. E. Benjamin Andrews, in his "History of the United States— 1870 to 1895, " gives this picture of the "Ku Klux Klan :" "The chief instrumentality at hrst used for keeping col- ored voters from the polls was the Ku Klux Klan, a secret society organized in Tennessee in 1866.
