Chicago Thinks the New York Paper
Misrepresents Them.

L
CHICAGO, H., July 29.-The Herald
this morning says; The attitude of the
average New York newspaper on the
subject of the Worlds Fair in Chicago is
offensive to the last degree. It's CORES
pondents are evidently under instruc-
tions to misrepresent Chicago and its
people, and they lose no opportunity to
circulate falsehoods that are calculated to
give the country the idea that this city
is untitled in all respects for the fair and
that its people are destitute Of the com
monest qualification for the successful
management Of such an exhibition. The
contemplate meanness Of this position
cannot be ascribed to persifage. 1t has
deeper foundation and graver sig
nifcance. No friend of Chicago and no
true American should be deceived or in
fluenced by such manifest misrepresen.
