The Real Secrctof the itnpcrrJldcd success,
of Tint Chicago Daily Niavs may ha
found in two distinguishing characteristics,
vvliich more than anything else have con
tributed to its remarkable growth.
First : — lt is a Daily Paper for Busy People.
The jjeople cf the busy West appreciate keen
ly the necessity of an intelligent knowledge
of the world’s daily doings, but they arc too
busy to waste valuable time i:i searching
through a cumbrous “ blanket-sheet ” news
paper for the real news of art, literature,
science, religion, jxjlitics, end ihclkoifir.''-
and-one things which make up modem civ
ilization. They want news—all the news—
-1 ut they don’t want it concealed in nn over
powering inassof the trivial and inconsequen
tial. It is because Tub Chicago Daily
News is “ all wheat and .t > chafff that
its circulation is over “ a tui;V:on a week."
Second :— lt is an Independent, Truth-felling
Newspaper. The people demand a fair, im
partial, independent newspaper,which gives
all the neves, and gives it free front die taint
of partisan bias. With no mere political am
bition to gratify, no “ ax to grind,” the int
pn-tial, independent newspaper may tuly La
“ guide, philosopher and friend ’’ to Loncst
mcnofeveryslindcofpolitical fail.t; rndtlifa
is why The Chicago Daily News has to
day a circulation of over “a unit mi a week.
