THE TULSA TRAGEDY.

Until investigation OF antccedent
events shows the cause Of the bitter
race feeling that cropped out in Tut
sa last night and today, any ANALYSIS
OF necessity is premature.
The mob spirit so easily breaks
bounds, unless it is represscd the mo.
ment it shows itself, that trivial events
sometimes arc responsible for grue
some tragedies. Usually, however. il
one searches far enough, one finds
some old grievance that has embitter
ed men, or some fear that has driven
them to a frenzy.
1t may not be without Significance
that the worct race riot Of recent
years has occurred in the new city"
OF Tulsa-a city that has been butu
up wihln the last ten years by i'm
migrants from many parts Of the conn
try. 1t certainly is significant that the
three most distressing race riots since
that of East st. Louis have been IN
washington, Chicago and Tulsa, plar-
es where racial relationship has not
been established on a sensible 70 IT.

consideration. In this is vindicatron
or the views OF those who have main
tanned that the whites and the color
ed people of the older Southern cities
know better how to live together in
amity than do the various fanatics
who rise up to preach an extreme pol
icy Of one sort or tho other.
The average co orcd person asks pri-
marily FOR two things--justice before
the law and freedom from threat ;
that have their origin in his color. lie
asks that when he comes before Il
court of law he will not BIZ penaliZcd
because he Is c0lorcd. Give HIM abso-
