THE INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL
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 well equipped
to serve the public. Our arrangements for
the collection of the news of the day are moro
complete than ever, and we have added some
special features which must enhance the pop
ularity of the paper.
THE JOURNAL is the only paper in In
diana that prints regularly the full reports Of
the Western Associated Press, which are now
more comprehensive than ever, covering tho
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 country at large. We have
a special resident representative at Washing
ton City, who looks after the news of the ma
tional capital with vigilance, paying particular
attention 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
free from party bias, impartially, and without
restraint.
Editorially TEE JOURNAL is a Republic
an paper, believing in the principles and
general policy of the Republican party; but il
recognizes that the day of blind party organ
ship has passed, and it proposes to be perfectly
free to ~eriticise and condemn, but in o spirit
and with a purpose for good, having a proper
regard for personal rights and regulations.
The citizen, whatever his political faith, can
be assured of seeing in the columns Of THE
JOURNALt the fullest and fairest presentation
Of the news, and in its editorial columns such
omment and structures as will command his
respect if they do not meet his approval. Ii
may also be said that THE JOURNAL Ia
published as a FAMILY NEWSPAPER. e
recognizes that the women and the children
are to be instructed and entertained. They
will always find in its columns matter special
ly prepared for them, while the paper will DO
SO conducted as to prove a welcome visitor in
the household. TIE 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 ac-
curate printed by any newspaper in the
country.

THE GA. r.
An Appeal TO All Surviving Comrades TO Unite In
q Vigorous Effort for It's Uehuiiding.

To THE EDITOR: Permit me 10 say that, in
my humble Judgment. it would be better, instead
of deyoting SO much of the valuable space of The
NATIONAL TRIBUNE to Fighting Them Over"
which. from the necessities of the ease can only
be interesting to a few of your multitude of
readers, you devote the same space and energy
to perfecting the GAR. organization and in
enrolling every honorably discharged soldier.
In this way can be secured the greatest good
for the greatest number living and where the
personal history, or that of some particular regi
ment, can be best utilized viz, in the local Post
rooms. Tor instance, let Us cOnCede for mo-
ment that the nearly 1900 900 of veterans, still
the monuments of Gods love and mercy"
were united and all borne upon the rolls of the
GAR; what a power for good, if exerted, in
Fraternity, Loyalty and Charity. Who of our
law makers could afford to resist its petitions,
if properly presented / assert without fear of
contradiction that what is most needed is
thorough organization, first and second, but
not least. unity of efforts. Let US, then, COM
rades. enlist all of our energies to promoting
the good of the Order and muster into its ranks
the high and the low, the rich and the poor. In
the past 10 years We have wasted our energies,
dissipated the hopes of thousands, and, in fact,
been more foolish than the Virgins of Holy
Writ, whose lamps were "Strimned. 1t is now
that the opportunity Of attack is afforded. Soon
by deaths we shall be reduced to the attitude of

to enter the ranks. The majority of the rulers
of the world have risen from the lower walks

afar." Then, by all we are or hope to have, by
the past with its rich memories and the future
with its glorious prospects, let Us arise as one

gress and the Nation. Let US, then, comrades,

of success. Much more can be done

The position taken by the republican
senators in the debate on the Dakota
question cannot fail to be very crafty
ing to the friends of Hon. Hugh j.
Campbell and that gentleman will be
pardoned if he jndulges in little exal-
tation over it himself. His attitude on
this state question is shown to be right
and in accordance with more than one
precedent. 1t has never been urged that
the course of statehood as pursued in
Dakota has been in accordance with all
established customs-but it has been
maintained that Dakota's course was in
every respect proper and loyal and not
an exceptional one. Dakota, like Kan
sas aud Michigan and other states cited
IN the debates, has been placed in po-
sition where the people of the territory
were compelled to move in
this matter. Congress had been
memoriallzed time and again to give
the territory on enabling act and as long
ago as when Hon. Granville G.. Bennett
was the delegate in congress, he intro
duced bill for that purpose, but the re
peated and earnest and urgent efforts oi
the people of Dakota to secure congress
sional authority and assistance, were un
needed and repelled. Delegations o
citizens, at great personal expense ant
sacrifice of time, have spent month
in Washington urging upon congres
the necessities of our situation, and the
were sent home disheartened and dis
scouraged. There seemed to be no wa
out of the difficulty but to take the bui
den of responsibility and expense upo
our own shoulders, and this has bee
done, under Che wise and patriotic leac

to quote part of the last section of the
constitution adopted by the convention,
he distorted it as he had every other ex-
preston of that body. In opening his
remarks he alluded to Il. J. Campbell
as the moving spirit in the whole busi-
ness, and said he knew fnothing of him
except in his connection with Louisiana
matters in 1876, and referred sarcastical-
ly to the ovation the people rendered to
Mr.. Campbell, which gave Mf. Plumb
the opportunity to observe that those
people who knew Mr.. Campbell better
than the senator from Missouri evident
ly bad a better opinion of him. The
feeling against Mr.. Campbell on account
of his connection with the Louisiana
elections was evidently the animus of
the attack.
