This uncommon Midwestern title has news of the day with many advertisements. Page 7 has an article headed: "THE HOODLUMS' HOLOCAUST" "Story of the Demolition and Burning of Chinese Wash-Houses in San Francisco by the Mob" and more. (see) Text takes up about 1 1/2 columns.
This issue is not fragile as newsprint back then was made of cotton and linen rags, allowing them to remain very pliable and easy to handle. Complete in 8 pages, a little irregular along spine, nice condition.
