ILLINOIS IN TROUBLE.

One man can start riot. II does
not require a mob. If the occasion
justifies it, and excitement is keen, it
only requires one individual of in
cendiary disposition to inaugurate
trouble.
The state of Illinois IS once more
disturbed with a threatened race war.
Only a short while ago mob law ruled
in the capital of the state and the
streets of Springfield were patrolled
with the state guard. Now Cairo
comes to the front with its tragic
story.
Illinois is the refuge of the negro
from the South. Most of the negro
population of the state is made up Of
emigrating blacks from Mississippi,
Arkansas. Tennessee and Alabama.
Chicago is a Mecca for the Southern
negro and the other cities of the state
afford him a place in which to 1--we
Of late years the negro population

that labor troubles have been of fire.
quent occurrence. The color line is
sharply drawn.
The undercurrent 1T feeling has
been steadily growing from year to
year, and only slight proyocation is
necessary to precipitate an open out
break.
This was the case In Cairo. The
snatching Of a pocketbook was not
such a serious crime in itself, but the
result leaves one of the best known
homes in Cairo in a deep shadow OF
sorrow. The riot VIII leave an in
de'lible stain. The history of the
tragedy will not be cheerful to read
in later years.
1t is some comfort for the South to
know that mob law is gradually dying
out. We can manage our affairs more
automatically now. It is also some
satisfaction while condoning the riot
of Thursday to also call the attention
of certain eastern publications to the
fact that Cairo is in Northern state
and is north of Mason and Dixon's
line so frequently referred to.--Mem-

young member of the mob who is said
to have been left to die after the
first assault does not show that the

good judgment. II colored deputies

necessity, this, too, is an inexcusable
mistake. 1t cannot but add fuel to
the flames of race hatred and serious

One Of the Frius.
One of the prevailing frills Of the
public schools, taught at the expense
OF study and driIl in solid branches,
is music. This is an art not belong
ing to the course of studies in the
common schools. A song for young
pupils to open school with in the
morning is all right, and this needs
no sepcial training. Music as a
branch, vocal or instrumental, should
mot be embraced in a common school
course. As taught now too much
time is devoted to it, too many books
are required, and consequently there
is waste of time and money on it.
There are in every community teach
ers of music to whom those desiring
to learn the art can go during vaca-
tons or out of school hours. No
more than acting, or sculpture or
painting, need music be taught in the
public schools.
