Yes, the KKK did target Mormons in the Southern United States. There are several events described in various journals and newspapers. It is thought that the KKK started the rumor that Mormons have horns (due to Elder J. Golden Kimball telling them so in an attempt to scare them) and contributed to the rumor that Mormonism is very secretive (because meetings and services were often held secretly at night to avoid harrassment).

Why did the Mormons resist the Utah Territory becoming a state?

Mormons saw both pros and cons for Utah Territory becoming a recognized state. They were not happy with the extra government control that would come from being a state - Mormons had established Utah's government, political system, legal system, laws, and education system, but much of this would have to be changed or done away with if they were granted statehood. However, Mormons in Utah also wanted to have a say in national politics, vote for president, have representatives in congress, etc. Some Mormons resisted Utah territory becoming a state, but most actually supported the idea. After all, Mormons had been trying to be accepted as a state for decades with their proposed state of Deseret.
