FOR BOCENTS
The WEEKLY JOURNAL.

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 so cents. This will include
the number beginning from the present date,
and the one succeeding fine November election
giving the result of the national campaign.
THE WEEKLY JOURNAL is complete family
newspaper. 1t is specially edited, and much
of the matter appearing in it is especially pre-
is a 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 a record
of the proceedings of Congress; it will have
complete report of the national conventions at
Chicago. Its literary and miscellaneous fea-
lures 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 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
ia likely to be most prominently dis
eussed, 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,

Mr.. HURD, in an eloquent outburst yes
terday, in the House of Representatives, ap-
pealed to the manufacturers of America to
throw open the ports of this country to the
manufacturers of the world so that our goods
could be sold abroad. Especially did he rep
resent that our iron products could find a
market abroad. The telegraph, simultaneous
ly with the report of Mr.. Hurd's remarks,
brings information from England that '4here
is prospect of serious trouble among the
molders and furnacemen of South Stafford
shire. The large iron masters of that district
say that there is an absolute necessity for a
sweeping reduction in wages because Of
the competition of the furnaces in
the north of England, where there
are no less than &C. 900 iron workers out of en-
ployment, and those who have work are glad
to retain it at any rate Of wages which the
iron masters can afford. 1t is evident that the
iron men of America cannot look TO England
for much of a market, while it would certainly
seem that English iron men, who enjoy the

THE paradise of wheelmen, as the users of
bicycles and tricycles call themselves, is Wash
ington, the streets of no other city affording
such favorable conditions for the wheel. Ladies
are beginning to use the tricycle., and lady on
one of these vehicles accompanied by a gentle
man on a bicycle promises to be common
sight. The number of bicycles in the United
States is estimated at 40, 900, and there are two
or three associations of,wheelmen, one of which,
THE American League will meet in Washing

which will be composed of 1,500 or 1000 repre-
sentatives, is to promote the general interests

gentlemen will start early in May for bicycle
tour to San Francisco, and expect to make the
trip in seventy days.

For preaching a sermon against the doctrine
of immediate sanctifcation, Rev. G. H. Har-
rison of Belmont, N. Y, was expelled from his
charge and deposed from the ministry by the
Methodist Episcopal conference of that district
Mr. Harrison's distress of mind over this action
of the church authorities was such that he has
become violently insane, and has been placed in
an asylum for treatment Some of his friends,
backed by guaranteed subscription of $40 900,
are about to bring legal proceedings against the
conference, and will, in his behalf demand
heavy damages. This will bring nice theologi-
cal question into the civil courts and may be the
means of settling, definitely, much disputed
point. The good brethren who will be brought
in as defendants in the case should remember that
much depends upon themselves If they can
retain a holy frame of mind under the cross -ex-
animation of irreverent and worldly lawyers,
the impression, not only upon the jurors but
upon the doubling public, will be great. 1t will
be an object-lesson in the sanctifcation doc
trine which they should be glad of an opportu-
nifty to give. If, in spite of this, the legal men
of sin should cause the case to go against them,
another glorious chance remains whereby the
truth of their creed may be proved. Let them,
in paying over the large sums of money which
will be required of them in the way of damages,
refrain from murmuring or other indications of
vile passions, but perform that act cheerfully,
and as if they felt to say that it good to be
there By thus retaining grip on their sane
tity under trying circumstances, they will win
more subscribers TO their doctrine than would
be gained by deposing army of unbelieving

MOSES FRALEY, prominent grain and stock
Spectator in St. Louis, has failed for million
or more. His property didnot burn, nor blow
up, nor wreck in the river, and yet his losses
all occurred within few DAYS Explaining
the cause of his embarrassment Mr.. Fraley
admits that he has been dealing" (polite for
"gambling') heavily in grain in Chicago, and
that last month he made nearly quarter of a
million. Embodened by his good luck, he
kept at it, until combination of 'bulls"
forced up the price of grain and shut F1aley
out On Friday and Saturday last he was
called on to put up 100000 in margins, and
on Monday 100000 more was called for. Re
ferring to the immediate cause of his troubles,
he said: 'There was a short session on Sat
urday and wheat went up four and one-half
cents in one hour. AS was G, 000 600 bushels
short, my loss in that time was
about $3.50, 0OO" Here is the secret of
his losses. He had sold" 100000 bushels
of wheat, of which grain he did not own a
bushel in the world. The price suddenly went
up four and half cents per bushel and his
Gloss, preposterous as it ought to appear was
a quarter of million dollars. Originally in
this "deap' he probably put up margin OF
from two to five cents per bushel, say the lat
ter-$30O, 900. Suppose, now, he had made a
bona fide trade; he could have bought or sold
but about 315,OOO bushels upon which the
loss of four and half cents would have been
but $14, IFS, instead of $25O,0O0, sum that
would not have seriously embarrassed him.
But, while i'll the margin dealing" there are
chances of great loss, there are corresponding
chances of gain, and it is these latter
that tempt spectators to make deals that can
not be defended as morally right. Moses Fra
ley nor any other man can make or lose $780,
900 on $3.50, 900 business transaction without
fraud somewhere The laws of legitimate
trade do not warrant such returns. The VIC
tim of other sharps shrewder than he deserves
no sympathy in his misfortune. Fraley
would have been glad to have made what he
lost in exactly the same questionable manner
in which he was victimized. So far as those
Immediately interested are concerned, they
might be left to themselves, out the people at
large will yet frame laws to strangle this
business" in the interest of common honesty.

THE Journals Washington correspondent
has been furnished copy of an interview with
Congressman Bayne, of Pittsbulg, which is sup
posed to give the figures relied upon by Mr..
Blaine as the vote in the Chicago convention on
the second ballot. In this statement Indiana is
put down for 80 votes for Mr.. Blaine. This
disposes of the value of this ''semi- official"
table. 1t is not worth the paper it is printed
on. Anyone who knows enough of the In
diana delegation to warrant him in saying
anything about it, knows that there is no more
there is of the State giving thirty votes for
him on the first ballot. This Bayne
interview is of piece with all the folly and
nonsense being printed in the Organs of
aspirants, one paper nominating Mr.. Blaine
with ease every day, another Mr.. Arthur, an
other Mr.. Sherman, another Mr.. Edmunds,
and so on ad hbitum, ad nauseam. The
stuff effects nothing; but to disgust careful
and thoughtful men. The truth is, that the
Ieepuolcan party iS dnAouusly anu carefully
looking over the country for the right man,
the man who will! most generally satisfy the
party, and who can carry New York and other
doubtful States. When the general Judgment
shall settle upon him, that man will receive
the votes of majority Of the Chicago conven-
ton. 1t does not seem that the man will be
found until the official representatives of the
party confer together coolly and deliberately,
unswerved by personal feelings.

NO HAIR IN THE BANKS.

"Yes, have heard about it, and all

Rufus Hatch to reporter who called
on him at his Office, No. 50 Broadway,
yesterday.
"And they have seriously issued Or

clerks to shave their fac IS clean?"
"Yes; the order prohibits the wear

AT other times they may wear them,
then? But how are they going to ge,

the reporter.
"There's only one way. Use glue"
