THE
INDIANAPOLIS
JOURNAL

SUNDAY
AID
WEEKLY

Since the Journal reduced in price
from % to Is cents a week. 1t has greatly
extended its circulation, reaching q
large number of people hitherto unable
to afford the luxury of n first-classd daily
paper. Reports from agents and sub
scribers indicate the result which was
to be expected, namely, that what waf
first regarded as "a luxury has become
a necessity. and that the new readerl
not only remain, but their list is con-
stantly increasing.
1t is the purpose of the Journal t<
make itself even more indispensable t.
its patrons, new and old, and TO still
further widen its field. To this end il
will not only endeavor to maintain the
characteristics which have established
its reputation as by far the best news<
paper in Indiana, but will add such nea
features and improvements from Tina
to time as are in accord withjournalisti<
progress and that may END to the adj
vantage of its readers. 1t will, for exs
ample, give increased attention to State
and local interests. What Indiauians
want is a paper in which Indiana affairs.
are given especial prominence and inn
%portance. This want the Journal has
always supplied as no other paper pub
lished outside or inside the State is able
to do; but the rapidly developing indus
tries and business aud social enterprises
of the community call for additional
consideration and space, With this in
view its corps of correspondents has
been increased until ithas a representa-
tive in nearly every town in the State.
Special travelling correspondents will
visit the news centers of the State at
frequent intervals. thus insuring the
write up" of every important event
or matter of general interest.
Being published in the geographical
center of Indiana the Journal is afforded
unusual facilities for securing news
promptly, and, what is of greater con-
sequence, is able to reach its subscribers
without delay. The running of morn.
ing trains from Indianapolis is very
favorable to the early distribution OF
papers sent by mail or express. and in
most towns within a radius of q hum
dred miles Journals are delivered as
early as I'm the city where they are
printed. In the more remote counties
there is but little loss of time in trans
portation.
The Journal is the paper for Ipdi-
anians and particularly for Indiana
Republicans. Although the campaign
is ended thecoming session of Congress
and subsequent change of administra-
ton involve political problems and pro-
ceediDgs likely to be of the most direct
personal concern to every farmer and
business man in the State. All such
matters will be set forth in detail, the
Journals Washington correspondent be-
ing instructed to give especial attention
to everything having a possible bearing
on Indiana interests.
But though the Journal is Republican
in politics it is bipartisan in the pub.
lication of news. Its constant ndeavor
is to secure facts unbiased by preju.
dice and to make its columns trust.
worthy records of eachday's happenings.
A large editorial force supplements the
work of the press associations and tho
correspondents, and furnishes careful
supervision for each department.
The Sunday Journal has a w~ell-estal.-
lished literary character. superior ia
that of any Western paper. 1t is not
defaced by "plate matter" nor filed
with a heterogeneous mass of syndicata
literature, but its contributions and
miscellany are chosen with O view "a
their special fitness and adaptability "a
the tastes of the readers. The reading
matter in any given number Of the Suns
day Journal is equal in quantity and iG
not inferior in quality to that found in
the leading magazines. As an educa<
tioDal adjunct and a source of entertain<
ment the Sunday Journal is i~ndispensA
able in every w~ell-regulated family.
