    only use one query – combine the parameters;

    try:

    $query = new WP_Query( 'year=' . $today["year"] . '&monthnum=' . $today["mon"] . '&day=' . $today["mday"] . '&category_name=small-business-news&posts_per_page=4&offset=1' );

    important: check the category_name which needs to be the slug of the one category you want to show (I changed it above, but this is just a guess)
