DAILY. SUNDAY and WEEKLY
The Most Complete Newspaper
in all Departments in the
State of Indiana.

No newspaper in the West is more
widely or more favorably known than
the INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL. BY the
display of enterprise and strict attention
to the wants of the reading public, it has
taken leading position among the most
prominent journals of the country, and
is certainly among the best. Among the
newspapers of the State it is pre-emi-
nently the best, and Indiana readers can
nowhere else find what they want in the
way of State and local news. 1t circu-
lates largely in every county in Indiana.
and has correspondents In every town
and village of Importance. Its market
reports are prepared with the greatest
care possible, and no pains or expense
are spared to make them accurate and
absolutely reliable. 1t is the only news
paper in the State owning and publish
ing all the news furnished by the two
great press associations (the Western
Associated Press and the United Press,
abundance of special service from all
the principal cities of the country. Ii
has been, and will in future be, the aim
of the publishers to make the INDIANAP-
OILS JOURNAL a perfect and complete
newspaper, deficient In no department
Or particular. The paper challenges
comparison with any of its contempo-
raries.
No Indiana reader, certainly no In
diana Republican, should be without the
Journal. While it is thoroughly and
soundly Republican in politics, devoted
to the interests of the Republican party.
the Journal will not allow its news to
be colored by partisan bias, but will
give the news of the day without fear or
favor.
Owing to the prominence of Indiana
in the national administration, the Jour-
nal gives particular attention to Wash
ington news, which will be given far
more completely than ever before. For
this reason, if for no other, no Indiana
reader can afford to be without it.
In addition to its new features, the
Journal regales its readers with the
productions of some of the best known
literary men and women of the day.
Many of the most celebrated magazine
writer's and authors are contributors TO
its literary columns, making it paper for
the household and home circle. Special
arrangements have been made for feat
ures of this character, which will appear
in the journal during the coming year.
These appear most largely in the
SUNDAY JOURNAL, which, is a. special
edition, and can be subscribed for and
received exclusive of the DAILY
| JOURNAL.

Refused tn Adopt the New Bill Of Lading.
CHICAGO. Sept 1.-The second attempt to
put into effect the uniform bill of lading on
all roads leading eastward from Chicago re-
suited IN another failure. 1t was to have
been adopted to-day. IN accordance with
the recent agreementof the Chicago freight
committee of the Central Traffic Associ-
alton. but there seems to have been fatal
hitch In the arrangements. The Wabash
road declined TO use il on through ship
ments in connection with the Canadian
Pacific, and the Chicago * Grand Trunk
refused to use it unless the Wabash applied
1t on all through business. The Big Four
wonld only adopt the bill in case all other
roads adopted it. and the result was that
three of the Chicago roads continued CIV
The outlook for the new bill of ladIng IS
generally regarded here as even more
gloomy than it was Aug. ].

MFR. VIM. Stevens Perry,

Mr.. VIM. Stevens Perry, an
authority in Episcopal matters, in a
communication to The Churchman OF
Feb. Sth, calls attention to the fact,
which appears to have been over
looked, that the House of Bishops
took formal action upon the question
of the repetition of the General
Thanksgiving" by the people with the
officiating minister, and quotes the
following item, taken from the N. Y.
evening Post of Oct. 30, which he says
is an unquestionably correct report OF
the action of the House of Bishops
Oct. 10Th:
In accordance with the recommendation OF
the com mistee on the Prsyer Book tho House OF
Bishops voted against the practice Of repeating
the General Thanksgiving In concert by priest
aud people, and also against the same practice In
the repetition of the first four invocations OF tn
Litany."
This vote, he says, was afterwards
expunged from the journal, on ac-
count of the unwillingness of the COM
mittee on the Prayer Book to permit
part of the resolutions reported by
them to be rejected, and others
among them the ones in question-to
be approved.
The Monmouth inquirer., 1890-04-17

The London Saturday Review
thinks the Russion government is act
ing with humiiiating leniency in send
ing political prisoners to Siberia in
stead of hangings them, and says of
the nihilists and rebellious students:
1sThe sensible course would be to sup
press them We are of the opinion
that the Russian Government which
must needs defend itself, would take
a more humane as well as a more
business-like course if it killed its
enemies as fast as it could lay hands
on them, instead of sending them to
go on struggling and resisting in the
cruel squalor of Siberia

Protection, which it was thought
would only impede the progress of the
American iron industry, has proved
to be the very rock of it's salvation,
and much as we may regret the result
for our own sake, the American peo-
pie, it must be admitted, have shown
a much keener appreciation of what
was essential to their progress than
our own doctrinaires would be willing
to admit. t."-( (English) Iron and Coal
