The
Chicago
Tribune

is newspaper for bright and intelligent peo-
pie. 1t is made up to attract people who think.
Is not neutral or colorless, constantly trim
ming in an endeavor TO please both sides, but
it is independent in the best sense of the word.
It has pronounced opinions and is fearless in
expressing them, but it is always fair to it's
opponents.
Matters of national or vital public interest
get more space in THE TRIBUNE than in any
other paper in the West
For these reasons it is the newspaper you
should read during the forthcoming political
campaign.
THE TRIBUNE'S financial columns never
mslead the public.
Its facilities for gathering news both local
and foreign, are far superior to those of any
other newspaper in the West.
1t presents the news in fair a way as pos
sible, and let's it's readers form their opinions.
While it publishes the most comprehensive
articles all news features, IL you are busy
the Summary of THE DAILY TRIBUNE"
published daily on the first page gives you
briefly all the news of the day within one col
umn.
Its sporting news is always the best, and it's
Sunday Pink Sporting Section is better than
any sporting paper in the country.
1t is the ''cleanest' daily printed in the West.

REPLY FROM RED WING.
In Regard to- Dispute In Game With
Ellsworth.

Sporting Editor Globe:
RED WING, Mimi, May 29.-Dear Sir:
In reference to the article which appeared
in your issue of May 20, in regard to the
game of ball between Red Wing and ELS
worth, Wis, will say the statement is
not correct. The visiting team was sew
eral times given the benefit of all doubts
in order to make them feel that they were
being fairly treated
They came to Red Wing with a hired
battery from your CITY, with the intention
of defeating our team if possible. We
have defeated them many times in the
past, and this is the cause of their dis
content. And on this special occasion was
the winter Of their discomfort made glorl-
ouS
In reference to the playing of the game
will say it was a fast, clean game all
through, the Red Wing teams fielding
being feature, and but two errors being
made. The Red Wing team made seven
teen hits off Mr.. Mcdonald, and the Ellis
worth team made nine off Benson. There
were no disputes until the ninth inning
the story of which is as follows: With
the score II to 10 in Ellsworth's favor, the
first two men up for Red Wing struck out
Kappel then made single, and Daily ad-
vanced him with a single. Ahlers then
made single, which scored Kappel from
second and advanced Daily to third base.
The decision at the plate was close and
caused dispute which brought the entire
Ellsworth team into dispute with the
umpire. The umpire ordered them to play
ball, which they were slow in doing. Daily
seized this opportunity to win the game
and came home, scoring the winning run
AS to the umpire changing his decision
This is not true. He said very distinctly
and without hesitation the man was safe
at the home plate.
In order to settle all further disputes
will say the Red Wing team, as made up
last Sunday, will play the Ellsworth
