WATCHING THE
RED PERIL 1
It Is all well and good to laugh at
the recurrent |>ronnnclamontos of the
kaiser and smile indulgently at his
<>er»*ional vigorous decim al ions r »rt
corning European affairs, hut there
is a vast amount of sober sense in
his latest statement that it is not so
much the yellow 1 til as it is the red
peril that Europe Inis to fear.
Anarchism, despite the rigid es
pionage of an imi)) of European spies

as safe to-day, a fact that lends im
