NEW ANNOUNCEMENT.

THE INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL is REQ
ognized everywhere as the leading newspaper
of Indiana No proper expense is spared to
maintain this undisputed excellence and TO
increase the value and interest of the paper
THE JOURNAL was never so we'll equipped
to serve the public. Our arrangements for
the collection of the news of the day are more
complete than ever, and we have added some
special features which must enhance the pop
ularity of the paper.
THE JOURNAL is the only paperin Indi-
ana that prints regularly the full reports of
the Western Associated Press, which are now
more comprehensive than ever, covering the
whole world. These dispatches are supple
mented by the work of special correspondents
at all the principal cities and towns of the
State and of the county at large. We havea
special resident representative at Washington
City, who looks after the news of the national
capital with vigilance paying particular at
tention to that which most nearly concerns
THE JOURNALS constituency. The full
est and most reliable intelligence from Wash
ington will be presented in our news columns,
restraint.
Editorially THE JOURNAL is Repub-
lican paper, believing in the principles and
general policy of the Republican party; but it
recognizes that the day of blind party organ
ship has passed, and it proposes to be perfectly
free to criticise and condemn, but in spirit
and with purpose for good, having proper
regard for personal rights and regulations.
The citizen, whatever his political faith, can
be assured of seeing in the columns of THE
JOURNAL the fullest and fairest presentation
Of the news, and in it's editorial columns such
comment and structures as will command his
respect if they do not meet his approval. 1t
may also be said that THEJOURNALis pub
lished as a FAMILY NEWSPAPER. 1t rec
ognizes that the women and the children are
to be instructed and entertained. They will
always find in its columns matter specially
prepared for them, while the paper will be so
conducted as to prove welcome visitor in the
household The news will be presented in
such shape as to minimize the evil, and its
editorial and local columns will be kept free
from moral faint.
The Railroad News of THE JOURNAL is
admittedly the freshest, fullest and most accu
rate printed by any newspaper in the country.

THERE is side to the quarantine question, affecting this territory, which seems to have escaped the attention of our Arizona cattle as- sociation. Arizona lies on the bor- der of foreign state. Territorial regulations in regard to imports or exports cannot be binding on that state. What is to prevent cattle from being shipped from Texas, in unlimited quantities, through Chi huahua into Sonora, held there for l time and then brought into Ari- zona? We know that at least one project of that sort is under way It would be we'll for our cattle asso- citations to look into this matter.- Beef and Bullion.

IN the eastern states arrests have been made of Mormons for preach ing and haranguing the people in public places in support of polyg- amy; system so widely at var lance with the universally accept ed Christian thought, that it is matter of more than ordinary amazement that an outraged pub lie opinion will suffer the diabol- ical intrusion. With their blas- phemous beastliness in endeavor- ing to roll back the tide of civili- zation; their efforts to blot out and kill the highest evidence We have of the universal progress of the hu- man family under Christian teach ings and true Christian teachers, we claim that nothing short of the unbounded respect for the support of good order and the maintain ance of the civil law holds the hands of the parents who has devoted a life in rearing their sons and daugh- ters to believe that man should be the husband of one wife and the woman the wife of one husband, in the relations made honorable and sanctified by a score of cen turies. Upon this theory our cOun- try was founded, our laws framed and the hope of our Union and oi all Christian people is founded, ,and only so far as we are faithful to those laws and usages can we hope to preserve our liberties, maintain the purity of the family and the inheritance of love without lust.
 The Mormon church may main tain itself and it may flourish as other sects have done. by abandon ing it's unlawful and outrageous claims; but so long as they defy the law, either by their maintain ance of the right to live in poly gamy, or in any other way set the laws at defiance by insisting on higher law than that made by the people for their own government they will come to swift destruction. The whOle country is aroused and are concerned in this matter.

0SE more crank has gone to join the innumerable band who have successfully ferried the Styx during the past few years. This new de- parture in lunacy has developed wonderfully since Guiteau played his engagement in Washington to a successful termination. When such a species of crankism is de- veloped in a man as was in the case of Odlum, who recently jump ed from the Brooklyn bridge to gain little notoriety and to there by swell the receipts of his bath ing establishment, no effort should be made whatever. by the authori- ties to check his inclinations, but. on the contrary, he should be en- couraged and assisted in every pos sible way; when the disease is full ly developed there is no limit to its possibilities; if checked at one point it will break out in another in more virulent form, so We re- peat, the sooner these men are al- lowed to make way with themselves the better.

PIKE's peak railway is expected to be in operation this year, and will be the most notable piece of track in the world. It will mount 2000 feet higher than the Lima & Oroya railway in Peru. It is now in operation to point over 12,OOO feet above the sea level. The en- tire thirty miles of its length will be succession of complicated curves and grades, with no piece of stright track longer than 300 feet. The maximum grade will be 316 feet to the mile, and the aver age grade 270 feet. The line will abound in curves from 500 to 1000 feet long, in which the radius changes every chain.

THE experiment of transplanting and propagating carp in ponds in Arizona has proven very successful. but complaints have been made of the quality of the fish for table use The habits of the carp, as is known by those engaged in raising them, is to bury themselves almost Tn the mud, portion of the time. This habit Is the cause of the fault con- plained against them as a table fish. In conversation recently with Mr. Geo. H. Moore, of the United States Fish Commission, in regard to this, he informed the Journal man that if people would treat carp as they do ducks and hogs before eating them, there would be no cause for com plaint. He says that before killing caro, they should be taken from the pond and placed in 9 barrel or tub offresh water and kept there and fed for ten days, changing the water on them every day. If treated in this way he says they make as nice and palatable a table fish as can be pro- cured.-Prcscott Journal.

AT the 2 80 meeting of the Pan- aca tabernacle, Sunday last, Brother Whitehead, who is School Super intendent of the St. George Stake, which includes this place, said, while speaking of the prosecutions of the polygamous saints over in Utah, that a man who would for sake his wives at the first signal of danger was a coward, and no true Latter-day Saint. He mentioned as :, sample of cowardice, MT. O.@P. Arnold, of Salt Lake, who when indicted couple of months since for polygamy, stepped forward and admitted his guilt, begging at the same time for the mercy of the Court. "That is not the way for a Saint to do," continued this noun tebank, he should, like the boy who had stolen the fox, deny his guilt, while the animal was eating his heart out" This is a pretty School Superintendent to have come to Nevada to teach our lit tie ones that if they break the laws of the land, they should, Spartan like, deny their guilt, even if they have to resort to perjury in doing so. In any other community but a Mormon one this ignorant char latan would be treated to a coat of tar and feathers, which he richly deserves.-Pioche (Nevada) Re cord.

Memo Bowman, Harold Childs.
and Marion ChiIds, aged respective

of Amos Bowman and DIR. Childs of
Anacortes, after strolling along the
beach of the channel some distance
last week, concluded to visit a
neighbor living three miles away,
on an unfreauented road through
the woods. Their continued alb
sence all day caused alarm, and a
search alsng the trails over Cap
Santa and in other directions was
instituted. At last their tracks
were discovered along the beach
and late in the afternoon they were
found returning along the trail
toward the beach, unconscious of
having done any wrong. Next day
Joe Lynch, while hunting along
this same trail, saw and shot at an
immense eoughar, probably the
same one seen several times by
different persons during the last
two years, near this trail. Had this
dangerous beast discovered the
children the day before, one Of them
might have been carried away and
no vestige ever found.
