The Presidential Campaign of 1865
promises 10 be one of the most inter-
esting and exciting In the history of
the country. The issues to be dis
cussed and determined by the people
are of the greatest moment to the
peace and prosperity Of the Nation.
1t IS highly important that the voters
be properly informed and thoroughly
posted On the political situation. The
most effective way to accomplish this
is to place in their hands a sound and
reliable Republican newspaper.
In order to enable the active Union
men of Southern Indiana and Illinois
and Western Kentucky to secure for
the WEEKLY JOURNAL a wide
circulation in their respective neigh-
borhoods, we have placed the terms
for the Campaign at
