THE APOLOGY IS MADE.

We had about decided that it
wouldn't come, but it has arrived.
Uncle Avery, in the Yellow this
morning, admitted that he did not
tell the truth in his editorial con-
cerning the tax levy and the expens-
es of the city government.
He takes it all back.
e says that he misquoted the
ley. Still he says that it doesn't
make any difference to him whether
the city levy is 10 or 2 mills, pre-
sumably because the difference is so
slight.

Chicago won by heavy opportune
