Michael:

One reason Twain might not have written about the KKK is the lack of impact
they had during Twain's life.  The KKK's "hay-day" started in the early 20th
century, and its activities in the 19th were largely curtailed by President
Grants initiatives.

Twain might not have deemed them worthy of such publicity...
