Reading edition

The cult use of peyote has been persecuted not alone by legislatures and religious groups. The following broadside, obtained from Alfred Wilson (Cheyenne) through Enoch Smokey (Kiowa) was posted at Harry Ehoda’s home in Mountain View, Oklahoma: “To all Indians addicted to the use of peyota and other forms of heathen or pagan forms of worship. You are hereby warned to sease form such degrading practices. Our Government has spent and is spending thousands of dollars each month to educate and life up the Indians and the Ku Kluck Klan of this state have determined that no Indian who has been educated by the Government shall come back home and debouch his people. Take Due Warning. The Clan in Your Community Will Look After You and Other Ku Kluck Klan of Okla.”
