Drigalski’s Trial against the Neue Rheinische Zeitung

* Cologne, December 21. Today Dr. Marx was again summoned before the examining magistrate for alleged slander of the “citizen and communist” Herr Drigalski. Given the multitude of press trials against the “N. Rh. Z.”, it is hard to determine which number this new one is. We regret, moreover, that Herr Drigalski has so misunderstood us. If a small measure of European fame should fall to his lot, he owes it solely to our articles about him. What black ingratitude, Herr “citizen and communist” Drigalski!! A sign that the times are becoming ever more depraved when gratitude for services rendered has fled even from a royal Prussian-communist heart.
