Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Chicago Riot: A Record of the Terrible Scenes of May 4, 1886
The fact that Chicago has been for years the central distributing point for all the vast European immigration that has sought the United States in the last decade has made it peculiarly the abiding place of the only human material from which social peace in America has anything to fear. The sober, industrious, economical and desirable stream of foreign immigration ?ows into and out of the City, adding to its population and prosperity and to the wealth and population of the great west tributary to it.
