THE UNREASONING MOB

That race riot starting afresh in East ST. Louis yeste-
day resulted in race The trouble took shape when
an ignorant negro evidently leader Of the gang he was
with responded to the hail of police sergeant with an
oath which was followed by voley from the mob with
him. The result what any intelligent person would
have known would follow the stirring the fires OF race
prejudice Civilization is only thin veneerng covering
the natural savage and when this scratched the wild
nature breaks through.
In the light Of German activities in the way of causing
trouble it is quite within the realms OF possibility that
traced to its source the trouble at East ST. Louis it will
be found was caused by German agents stirring up the
ignorant negroes for the purpose Of causing race war
in this country Of the effort will not succeed
because the larger part of the negroes cannot be deceived
as to what they do by attacking the whites 1t is n
fortunate that the innocent negroes suffer because OF the
sins and igorance of their fellows and it is still more u
fortunate that otherwise sensible white folks when their
anger is aroused lose their and vent their rage
