A GREAT OFFER
The WEEKLY JOURNAL
for the Campaign at
% CENTS

In order to place the WEEKLY INDIANA
STATE JOURNAL in the home of every Repub-
Hcan in the State, and thus do good campaign
service for the Republican party, we have de-
cided to send the paper till after the presiden-
tial election for 25 cents.
THE WEEKLY JOURNAL is a complete family
newspaper. 1t is specially edited, and much
of the matter appearing in it is especially pre-
pared for the wants of the weekly readers. 1t
is compendium Of the NEWS OF THE WORLD
from all quarters; it has full and accurate mar
ket reports; its editorials are political, social
and general; it has the news of the State
and of the city Its literary and miscellane-
GUS features are of the best
THE WEEKLY JOURNAL is a newspaper that
should be in every family in Indiana, and at
the price named for it there is no reason why
it should not be, at least during the exciting
and important campaign upon which the
country mas now entered. Political com
mittees cannot do better than to see that
copies of THE WEEKLY JOURNAL are placed
in the hands of those persons in their
counties who are not now readers of
some sound Republican paper. The
tariff question is the one issue which
is likely to be most prominently dis
cussed, and to this the Journal pays especial
attention, advocating the maintenance of the
principle of protection to American industry
in whatever revision of the tariff laws may be
made necessary in the future developments of
business and labor. In this question the
farming community is deeply interested, and
the discussions of the Journal will be
largely directed to the agricultural aspects Of
the question.
THE WEEKLY JOURNAL is the only paper in
Indiana that publishes regularly Ten Pages,
and this will be continued throughout the
campaign, despite the low price Send in
names at once either singly or in clubs, and
thus get the full term for the money.

son. Mr.. Stanton said there was no man upon
whom he could lean with greater trust in those
dark days of the republic than upon Bishop
Simpson. 1t was Lincoln who declared that the
Methodist Church had sent more soldiers to the
field more nurses to the hospital and more
prayers to heaven for the success of our cause
than any other church.
In concluding, Governor Porter said that he
had intended only to speak of his personal
recollectons of Bishop Simpson, which were
chiefly when he was at Greencastle as a student
He was a man of the greatest purity of char
acter, the highest excellence of mind; man
whose name would be praise in all the earth.
Memorial services were also held at Roberts
Park, Fletcher place, Meridian street and
Seventh-street Methodist Churches At the
latter church addresses were made by the pastor
Rev. M. L. Wells and Rev. Gillette. The re-
marks by the latter were in the nature of per-
sonal "reminiscences of the dead Bishop, with
whom he had been intimately acquainted. He
closed by saying that he regarded Bishop Simp-
son as the greatest American since the days Of
Washington,

LONDON, December l5.-The Earl Of

oppression and bad government, had
