ALL IS WELL THAT ENDS WELL

We have suffered a great loss from
the riots. 1t will take quite a time
to stabilize things, and becOn back
with tempting promises the good
times we were enjoying before that
Sunday afternoon at the 29th street
bathing beach. Certainly the race will
fight back when insolence rears its
>uaddening leer, and essays to own
the earth and the sea.
What we have suffered no doubt
was matured in a crusible of fate.
some things it seems have to be.
Naughty devilment often cankers the
human heart,-and the worst of mis-
chief becomes the result of the
thoughtless. The daredevil had to be
told that his wanton lust for human
blood would meet a stubborn resist
ance. and if to die this lesson should
be taught, then in the name of thou
sands of our helpless kind, in this
great free city, death would be count
ed sweet.
Now that it is all over, we can con-
template the consequences of the rash
action of the wanton reckless among
the races. Do such things pay? Time
alone can tell.

DR.. FRANK CRANE.

1T doesn't take an ounce of brains
to hate a Negro"
This is what DR.. Frank Crane says.
Now, if you choose to go little fur
ther, you may reach a conclusion that
the least brains one has the more
they are prejudiced to Negroes.
We never had undertaken to reason
thus until we got by peculiar demon
stration the definition of a mob. Of
course, you can never easily tell what
the meaning of mobocracy is unless
you see the thing working. So, also,
you see the operation of prejudice
against color, and you readily con-
clude that people who act hatefully
without any reason whatsoever are
shallow-minded or crazy.

SUNSHINE RESCUE MISSION
1880 S. State ST.,
SERVICE EVERY NIGHT IN THE
YEAR.
Rev. II. Franklin Bray, DID,, SuPt.

Under the leadership of Mr.. C. C..
Briscoe, the Assistant Superintendent.
the Rescue Mission has been moving
on nicely, performing the task as
signed her of God while the Super
intendent, DR.. H. Fanklin Bray, has
been in Iowa in revival meetings.
Some of the refugees from sections
Of the South, where lynching and
bloodshed have predominated lately,
are being cared for at the Rescue
Home and there are many more who
are in need of and deserve our assist
ance if we only had larger quarters
and a little money.
Contributions to the coal fund have
been received from Alton and Chi
cago, ILL.,; De Soto, Missouri; Hutchin-
son, Kansas; Fl. Madison, Iowa, and
Cleveland, Ohio. God bless each Of
hem and give them a peculiar joy in
their hearts as they minister to the
unfortunate and, in some instances,
misguided and overlooked men and
boys, whom we must shelter and keep
warm this winter.
Mrs. Ava Vingar and Mrs. Ella
Brown are having tremendous success
in gathering the children from the
streets and alleys into the Sunday
school and religious services. Mrs.
Vingar is superintendent Of the school
and Mrs. Brown is the organist. Many
Of the children whom they have gath
cred in were never at a Sunday school
before. THIS ENTIRE INsTTTU-
TIoN is SUPPORTED BY FAITH.
Contributions are always thankfully
received and acknowledged.
DR.. Bray win speak to the children
at 2 o'clock and to everybody at 8
o'clock Sunday.

THE SOBER SENSE OF CHICAGO.

In the language of the old saw
would it be proper for the "pot to
call the kettle black?
Fortunately, that principle that
teaches ''Let him who is innocent cast
first stone," is doing a deal of good.
We find numbers of people of the
white race disavowing race hatred,
and adding their great force of de-
cency and respectability to the fair
and impartial settlement of that hola-
Gust of crime that has run rampant
in. our great city.
Justice should be the handmaiden
of decency and sense. This is of
course the fOrerunner of good order
and a proper adjustment of the con-
ditions.
First fair-minded people think, and
after needed reflection determine
what is a proper conclusion, then base
their action on right thinking.
There is much good in all Of Us,
and the bad should not be empha-
sized to the detriment Of any partie-
