Lone Star Order.This was one of the organizations of the pro-slavery men in the territorial days. It was a secret, oath-bound society, similar in its plans and purposes to the "Blue Lodges" (q. v.) and had for its ultimate object the making of Kansas a slave state. But little can be learned of its work, further than that David R. Atchison was one of the moving spirits, as he was in practically every pro-slavery movement at that period.
