Yellow Stories as to Raging Rabble
Utterly Without Foundation
Socialists Took Flag Down
Themselves.

The fact that the Socialists had red
flag displayed at their headquarters at
the state fair grounds has been seized
upon by imaginative newspaper writer's
as basis for concocting several thrilling
tales in connection with the news OF
the attempted assassination of President
Mckinley on Friday A morning paper
printed story to the effect that the tent
was visited by a crowd which demanded
that the flag be lowered, and that only
the interference of cooler heads prevent
ed the tent from being torn down." Yes
terday'S Chicago American outyellowed
its st. Paul yellow contemporary. A rag
ing mob was created, the tent was torn
down and tramp,ed into the earth, and the
people in charge of it had to be escorted
to the street cars by police in order to
escape from violence, etc.
AS a matter of fact nothing of the
sort took place. The Socialists did hap
pen to have a red flag, but it was lower
ed at their own suggestion, and not be-
cause anyone demanded it. G. H. Lock
wood. in charge of the Socialist head
quarters, said yesterday:
We were not visited by any crowd
mob or even individual demanding the
lowering of our flag. At the time it was
taken down, there We're only three ger
sons in the tent. One of our own mem
bers suggested that as ignorant persons

caution to take the flag down, and we
accordingly did so. Our action was prob
ably noted by some repSrter and suggest.

cocted. and which in turn suggested it
to the correspondent for the Chicago
American. 1 should not be surprised if
the same person was found to be the au-
thor Of both fabrications. He had time
to smoke another pipe and dream again,
and succeeded in going to greater lengths
in his effort for the Chicago paper
There is no more reason for con-
rounding the Socialists with anarchists
than the single takers the Populists or

cure legislative reforms through the edu-
cation of the people and the ballot True.
our emblem is a red flag, Indicating the
blood of tie whole people, the same as
that of the anarchists, but then the man
who started the running horses
at the race track had a red
flag. Why not write him un as
an anarchist? I have understood that
the waving of a red flag infur'at bulls.
but L have had to learn by this experi
ence that there are human beings who
are driven to madness by the sight of
this particular color
