THE INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL is recog-
Indiana No proper expense viii be spared IN
the future to maintain this unaisputed excel
lence and to increase the value and interest OF
the paper. THE JOURNAL was never so well
equipped to serve the public. Our arrangements
for the collection of the news of the day are
more complete than ever, and we are adding
some special features for 1885 which must en-
hanee the popularity Of the paper
THE JOURNAL is the only paper in Indiana
that prints regularly the fun reports of the
western Associated Press, which are now
more comprehensive than ever, covering the
whole world. These dispatches are supple
mentsd by the work of special correspondents
at all the principal cities and towns OF the
State and of the country at large We have a
special resident representative at Washington
City, who looks after the news of the national
capital with vigilance, paying particular atten-
tion to that which most nearly concerns THE
JOURNALS constituency. The national admin
istraton will soon pass into the control of the
Democratic party and the fullest and most re-
liable intelligence from Washin gton will be
presented in our news columns, freefrom party
bias, impartialiy, and without restraint.
The new State administration takes charge OF
affairs with the Beginning of the new year. The
Democratic Legislature will be in session. The
Journal will pay unusual attention to the daily
presentation of such report of its doings thas
any citizen of the State mGy know all that is so.
ing on affecting the public interests, accompa-
MED with such comment as may be needed to ex-
plain the possible political, social and economic
effects of the proposed legislation.
Editorially THE JOURNAL is Republican
paper, believing in the principles and general
policy of the Republican party; but it recognizes
that the day of blind party organshiphas passed,
and it proposes to be perfectly free to criticiss
and condemn, but in spirit and with a pur-
pose for good, having a proper regard
for personal rights and regulations.
The citizen, whatever his political faith, can bo
assured of seeing in the columns of THE
JOURNAL the fullest and fairest presentation
of the news, and in its editorial columns such
comment and structures as will command his re-
spect if they do not meet his approval 1t may
also be said that THE JOURNAL is published
as a FAMILY NEWSPAPER. 1t recognizes
that the women and the children are to be in
structed and entertained They will always find
in its columns matter specially prepared for
them, while the paper will be condue.=@a -

news will be presented in such shape as 70 min
imize the evil and its editorial and local columns
will be kept free from moral taint

wholesale Indictment of Election Judges

CHICAGO, Jan. 24.-The special county grand
jury to-day returned indictments against 249 of
the judges serving at the recent national cleo
ton. The report declares that the present reg
istry and election laws are entirely inadequate
for the purposes of large city, and, as they ex-
ist, enable unlimited fraud. The report declares
that out of the Ill precincts into which the city
is divided there were but seven at which there
were not violations of the election laws, in many
cases, perhaps, through ignorance, some from
carelessness and others doubtless through Grim
inal intent

The Feeling Among Congressman.


WASHINGTON, Jan. 24--When the news of
the London explosions reached the House of
Representatives, the members were DISPOSED to
doubt its authenticity. On it's confirmation,
however. they eagerly sought such information
as was obtainable. This is becoming serious
thing, said one, ''and it must receive such at
tention and action as its seriousness deserves
Representative Fnerty sat in the House lobby
when the news was received by him. "Of
course. it will be laid to the Irish he said. "but
Nihilis.s may be in London, as they arc in the
cities OF Russia"
One or two members were disposed to exhibit
n degree of tinlidity, and remarked: What If
an Attempt be made to blow up the House Of
Representatives. Where would we bel"
A Democratic member said: Dynamite is
being ugcd too promiscuously. In Chicago it has
been found and now its force is felt on the
English Parliament But what can be done9
England should use the most decisive measures
10 discover the perpetrators of this deed, and
should hang any one found guilty, man or
woman"
The senator's received the early news of the
explosions with incredulity. Several OF them
sent to the Associated Press Office to make in
quiries about it Being assured the reports were
correct, much anxiety displayed to know
the details, and the reports, fast as they were
received, were sent to the Senate, which was in
secret session 1t Is understood that the dyna.

THE NEWS IN WASHINGTON.

How Members of Congress Regard tho At

WASHINGTON, jan M M--'Dynamiters.r "Feni-
an plotters," internal machines" and nitro
giycerine factories" were words heard on every
hand at the Capitol during all of this afternoon,
and about hotels and telegraph offices here, to-
night The attempt to wreck the House OF Com
mons in England, this afternoon, spread IKE
wild6re, and caused considerable excitement
among politicians The telegraph Offices were
places of intense Interest, and the contents OF
the bulletin boards everywhere were
conned eagerly. No surprise was ex-
pressed at the prompt Introduction OF
bill by Senator Ed,nunds looking
towards suppression of dynamite work in this
country. 1t is generally believed that the bill
will be passed by the Senate on Monday, and
that the House will adopt it without reference
to a committee The members look upon the
matter in very serious way. They say II Con-
gress takes any radical action it may excite the
attention of dynamiters here, and they will blow
up the Capitol, while il no attention is paid to
England's request TO cooperate with her in ex-
terminating this crime, it will ruin our commer-
cial relations with Great Britain, and probably
finally lead to war;

Howe. who is at the head of the women's ex-
hibit at the Worlds Industrial and Cotton Cen
