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-
aican 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-
&ial election for 25 cents.
THE WEEKLY JOURNAL is a complete family
newspaper. Itis specially edited, and much
of the matter appearing in it is especially pre-
pared for the wants of the weekly readers. It
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 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 has now entered. Political COM
mittees cannot do better than to see that

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.
