That Sunday Ball Game.

Readers of The Tribune will have no
trouble remembering the report in last
week 9 issue of the ball game played at
Highland the Sunday previous between
teams of this city and that place.
Well, we made an awful, outrageous
mistake. (?) This, you see, is held as
questionable. The mistake was the in
timation that it was anything but classy
playing to permit of bombardment of
10 to 5, and by a team of NO more pre-
tentions than the Highland outfit
The proper score was to s. Our in
formant for last weeks dope was an
enthusiast of this city who CHANGED to
witness the game. For this week 8
formula we are indebted to one Of the
players. Anyhow, it was outrageous,
was it not? The Big lnjins" would
Ike our scalp, but we purpose keeping
il and oursef in good vigorous eondi-
zion for any future squal.
1t is said the Highland players made
only for hits. Was each Of these good
for two home runs? Where is the
nigger? Not the umpire sure. even il
he was a Highland citizen; and if he
in reality was as biased and unreliable
as is claimed to be known Of him, why
play at all under such disadvantage
There was no compulsion to employ
time in this way All Sunday schoo
doors were open.
Hang the blame where It belongs

BEAT NELSON WITH REYNOLDS.

That's good immense as pay-tri
otto party cry. And to put it in large
type across two columns was the con.
celving of brilliant party caper.
This treats on congressional timber
for this district. But who is Reynolds
All the assurance gathered here is, that
he is nice fellow, neither old nor young,
inexperienced in craftsmanship, and
one of the over-supply of lawyers of the
state capital a party Democrat, the
all-essential in the estimation of his
enthusiastic supporters. He can be a
good Democrat yet weak on democracy.
Don't get the issue confused
Hence, why I" Beat Nelson with Rey-
nolds ?" Nelson is getting pretty well
pummeled on the question of loyalty.
but harken to what Nelson claims for
himself, thus: 81 stand for loyalty and
the people" Does Reynolds stand for
anything more? If he says he does
we have only his sayso for it. so where
has he any lap on Nelson.
The Tribune has no brief for Nelson.
As a Republican he has had a golden
opportunity to polish his patriotism,
This he has not done to our complete
satisfaction. He favors anti-loyalty to
profteers. Well and good. But Wig
orous and firm response to the insult to
our country, the deliberate numbering
of our women and children, etc, by
Germany, should have been promptly
carried out. no matter how the adj
mistration hesitated. And when war
was finally declared. the dominant cry
should ever be, night and day, I'VE
must win it. - In this the Republicans
are doing their full share, both in men
and money. BY electing a Republican
congress this fall the case of the proht-
GERS is doomed and somewhere near
proper punishment will be melted out to
chem. They anticipate this, and you
will not find them supporting Republi-
can candidates,
But back to the suggestion of BEAT
Nelson with Reynolds +" If Nelson
should be retired, it must be remem-
bered that this is not only a strong Re-
publican district but strong patriotic
district, and our Congressman has got
to be both. Democrats may as well
cease their camouhage alarm.
What's the matter with the reliable
loyalty of either Messrs. Shuttleworth,
Monahan or Pollard, all Republican as.
pirants for congress Nothing espec-
tally when compared with Reynolds.

Twenty-Five years ago, The Tribune
church history
One of the leading church events in
the history of our city was the dedica-
tion of the beautiful new Primitive
Methodist church last Sunday august
6, 1898 The sermon in the morning
by Rev. w. j. C. Bond Of Kewanee
was undoubtedly one of the ablest ever
delivered by that able divine. At the
evening service Rev. Thomas Kent oc-
cupied the pulpit
To build and equip this magnificent
structure required s22. 400. OF this a
mount about Sl3, 500 remained unsub-
scribed. but $4, 500 was secured by col
lection and subscription at the three
services, leaving only $4,000, which is
regarded as light burden for the en-
ergetic members of the church.
This organization dates back to 1913.
at which time there were eighty-two
members. These eighty-two members,
of whom but few remain, buckled on
their armor and erected one of the most
substantial churches in this section at
that time. This building was dedicated
on Christmas day, 1849, and from that
date until July II, 1892, when the last
service was held therein, there was not
a sign Of intermission or break.
The old structure was in a well pre-
served condition when RACED and old
members felt pang of regret, but
they yielded to the necessity Of more
room, the membership now being AIS.
BY Christmas of 1892 the building
was so far toward completion that tho
first service was held therein in the
lecture room, since which time all ser.
vices have been held there. The whole
is now complete and is constructed il
accordance with the most modern styl,
and conyeniences, with seating cap
acity of nine hundred. 1t is credit L
our city and particularly to the com
mittee that has been so faithful and en-
ergetic in its construction.
Rev. S. X. Chubb, the present an,
able pastor, has been an active facto
in this move and about $50 member
, have been added curing his pastorate.
