That Florida will have An exhibit at
the New Orleans Exposition ia an assured
fact, rumors to the contrary notwithstand-
ing. We are happy to state that lack Of
money is not likely to embarrass the
work of making ready the space in the
Exposition building and grounds, nor the
collection and transportation Of articles !;
and there is every reason to believe that
the efforts of individuals throughout the
State in preparing and producing things
of beauty or usefulness will make the dis
play both excellent and extensive. The
bill loaning a million dollars to the Expo
sition has passed Congress, and portion
of this sum will be appropriated to the
collective exhibit of the States. Com
missioner Sebring, who arrived from
Washington last Friday, informs us that
the share of Florida for Special State
Exhibit will be 81, 900, which will be paid
into our State treasury by Director-(4en-
eral Burke pro rata as the installments of
the million dollar loan are received from the
U. 5. treasury by the Board of Manage
ment of the Exposition. Commissioner Sc
bring is negotiating the loan of a suffi-
cient sum for general uses with such
good prospect of success that there is lit
tie cause to doubt that the question of
money will soon cease to trouble the
outlook Of the undertaking to. have
Florida excel in some respects even in
| the midst of brilliant competitors.
AS the magnitude of this Exposition is
not fully understood we place it in COM
parative position, as thus: There will be
more space under roof than at the Worlds
Fair in London; eleven acres more under
roof than at the Philadelphia Centennial ;
there is double the space awarded for
private exhibits that there was at the
Centennial. After the managers of the
Centennial hal been at work two years
they had received no foreign application
for space, and did receive none until after
the U. S. Government loan of money
they had twelve foreign applications in
| ALL After six months work twentv-One
foreign applications were made for space
at the New Orleans Exposition, and one
more since the bill to loan money was in
troduced in Congress. Twenty-one States
and two Territories applied for space at
Philadelphia; Twenty-Five States, fv,
Territories and FIVE tribes of civilized
American Indians have applied for space
at New Orleans.
1t may be anticipated that there will
be gathered at New Orleans the mosr
varied collection Of peoples of different
races and nationalities, and of the pro
ducts of their arts and industries, eve
brought together on the face of the earth
for it may he reasonably expected tina
the number of forei gn applications will
be increased There are dim records 0
great assemblages at metropolitan cite
of antiquity where people from various
parts of the then known world were as
sembled to aid the pomp OF victorious
power, but probably there was less iii
versity OF race and speech on any o
those occasions than there will be at New
Orleans in 1885,.

The Wives of the Candidates.

Blaine has to be excited to look big. But Mrs
Blaine looks most imposing when she is not ex-
cited. She is large woman who sits bolt up
right in her corner of the carriage with her
usual scornful smile on her face. Her face is "a
strong one. Her features are large, and are so
disposed as to convey a sense of power. They
always wear the same proud, contemptuous ex
preston. Mrs Blaine has as many enemies in
Washington as MIR. Blaine has friends,
Mrs. Logan, handsome woman, with gray
hair and bright eyes, who loves her husband
dearly, calls him darling in public, and works
day and night to help him upward. Mr.. and
Mrs. Logan live in the second story of board
ing house on Twelfth street. and it speaks vol
umes for them that their fellow-boarders are all
for Logan. They are censured for not taking a
handsome house and entertaining lavishly; but
they have learned that they that take the hand
some house shall perish by the hondsome house.
Besides, they don't need to. Mrs. Logan makes
enough friends without it.

The Choking School,

The average girl at marriage is well in
structed in sewing To take her place at the
head of family without fair knowledge of this
useful household art, would be to disgrace her
mother and herself in the minds of all their ac-
quaintances The average young bride goes to
ahome of her own with few practical ideas on
a matter which will have to come before her
thrice day, and one in which the health and
general prosperity of herself and others most
essentially depend. Then, if ever she acquires
even passable skill in cookery it will doubtless
ly be through much wasting and worrying and
manifold non success. Meantime dyspepsia. or
other evil angel, is lurking in the shadow of her
table. To the young wife and house keeper 50
eircumstanced half the terrors of the kitchen
are at once removed by the introduction of the
ever-ready Away reliable Royal Baking Pow
der With its proper use there can never be
failure in bread, biscuit or cake, while the per
feet heathfulness of the food produced is like
wise so well assured that all who partake may
defantly snap their fingers in the face of old
dyspepsia. This point gained, the victory over
inexperience and bad luck in other things is
speedily won. The Royal Baking, Powder on
account of its superior powers as u leavening
agent the great facility with which it may be
used, its proved economy and its thoroughly
established wholesomeness and purity as estab
lished by the tests of government chemists and
others, has become the general substitute for
cream of tartar and soda in the making of nice.
sweet light, faky, digestibe bread biscuit, etc
With its use the young mistress of the house
may take a pardonable pride in the work of her
hands

FOR BOCENTS
The WEEKLY JOURNAL.

In order to place the WEEKLY INDIANA
STATE JOURNAL in the home of every Repub-
ican 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 so cents. This will include
the number beginning from the present date,
and the one succeeding the November election
giving the result of the national campaign.
THE WEEKLY JOURNAL is a complete family
newspaper. It 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; it has q record
of the proceedings of Congress; it viii have a
complete report of the national conventions at
Chicago. Its literary and miscellaneous fea-
lures are of the best

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 is about to enter. 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, and thus get the full term for
the money JOHN C. NEW & son,
