Weekly Indiana State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1853-1861, 1856-12-25
Prospectus Of the Indiana State Sentinel for


The pToprietors of this establishment deem
1t almost unnecessary to urge upon the DEM
ocracy of the State, the importance of largely
increasing the circulation Of the SENTINEL.
A faithful and candid exposition of Demo
cratic principles and policy is all that is ne
cess.ry to secure their continued ascendancy
in the minds of the people and this can be
best accomplished through the medium OF
the press. And to make success easy in the
future, our people should be thoroughly in
formed and receive correct impressions upon
all the party issues and public questions of
the day. As it has been in the past, this
will be the continued object of the SEN
tinel and to the faithful accomplishment of
this duty, its proprietors will give all their
ability, energy and zeal.
In return we shall ask Of the Democracy of
the State liberal and hearty support. In
doing US a service personally, they will st the
same time have the satisfaction of knowing
that they viii SOW broadcast sound princi-
pies and Just sentiments. We hope that
every Democrat will feel it his duty to be a
soliciting agent in bis own neighborhood, for
in no way can he accomplish greater good
than in the circulation Of paper true to his
faith. The Sentinel should have a circula-
ton in the State Of FIFTY THOUSAND, and it
can be accomplished if the Democracy of the
State will it. With little effort on the part
Of our friends, this number of subscribers can
be obtained in the next thirty days. 4
As the Central Organ of the party we shall
know no men, interests or cliques! and it shall
be our aim to do equal and exact justice to
all. Our duty is to be the advocate and ex-
ponent of the principles and measures of the
party, and whoever they shall select as its
Representative Men, to give them an ener-
getic and cordial support.
The administration of Mr.. BUCHANAN will
sooa be inaugurated. Every Democrat should
be interested to know the sentiments ard pol
icy of the MAN of his choce. Congress is
in session and the people should keep in
formed of the doing of their servants. The
Legislature of this State will assemble
on the 9TH of January, and every citizen of
the commonwealth should watch, with an
anxious eye, all that concerns our State in
terests. The Sentinel will contain full re-
ports upon all these. topics, motives enough we
think to induce every man to take our paper.
In addition we shall keep our readers inform
ed upon all the current news of the day, do
mestic and foreign. We will give full reports
of the markets, and ali interesting CONNER
cial and monetary matters. We viii give each
week a full report Of the N Y. Cattle market.
In a word we shall endeavor to give our pa
per an interest to the Tradesman, the Me-
chanic, the Laborer, to all classes and profess
sions. ADvERTIsERs are especially invited to
the great advantages the SENTINEL offers as
an advertising medium. Its extended circu-
lation reaches all portions of the STATE and
all classes of the community. giving the ad-
vantage of not only large local, but general
circulation.
Weagain ask our friends to aid in extending
the circulation of both our DAILY and WEEKLY
paper. Having no soliciting agents, we shall
have to depend entirely upon their good will
and efforts, which we trust they will ge2er-
ously manifest in good works, and which we
promise to repay in every effort to give the
SEETINEL value and influence.
We are prepared to print all kind of Blanks
for County Officers use, and furnish any Off
cial Books of Record they may need. We
hope to receive orders for this kind of work.
The Book and Job Office of the SENTINEL.
is equal to any in the West, and we are pre-
pared to do any work in that line on the most
favorable terms.
