Come outside. l don't care much about the
town, but when you run down our base
ball club, there's got to be fight. You hear
me. Adapted for the occasion.
Men of genius have always been looked
upon as poor penmen, and not without cause
There was Horace Greeley, he who advised
young men to 90 West, and others too numer-
Gus to mention. AS further instance it NAV
be said that Rev. Mr.. Thwing's writing re-
sembles to some extent lot of Chinese char
acters, all jumbled into heap The lines
are about one-cighth of an inch apart, and
the letters are composed OF a lot of little
marks which not one printer in 500 could read
The climate of Minnesota may work change
however.
The Tribune was green and yellow in spots
yesterday with bile and malice.
1t was very unkud Of Mr.. Clough to criti-
else the mayor in his absence. Just suppose
some one should turn about and criticise Mr..
Coughs original methods of administering
parliamentary law in the council. How wide
q swarth he could cutl
The West hotel has given out how many
guests it had last year. The Ryan may now

When he so savagely attacked the mayor
on the Sunday base ball games, the reverend
editor of the Tribune did not know Mayor
Ames was absent. The Tribune never lets its
editorial hand know what its reportorial
hand doeth. In its excitement the Tribune
forgets it gave its readers the same kind of
rot last spring, and the result was d change
| of 1900 votes in favor of the man it
| maligned.
1t is barely possible there will be music
| when Mayor Ames returns. While the lion
is absent the wolves are swapping.
| President Small should give ride or two to
some of those fellows who are snarling at the
motor. Any one of them can be bought for
a ride. And when he has done that he should
put cinder arresters on the engines and
everybody will be happy
1t is somewhat amusing to see certain
paper In one paragraph proclaim Minneapolis
the most disgusting and disgraceful hole in
| creation, and flied with thieves and thugs
and In the next paragraph invite the world
| to come here and see the Exposition and view
the finest city on earth. This grandmother
paper is probably doing the Exposition more
harm than the city, though, fortunately, it is
never heard outside OF Minneapolis, while in
the city it is only smiled at
When Mr.. Bletheu gave the usual Saturday
night order to roast the administration. il
probably did not refer to Aid. Clough. The
