THE
INDIANAPOLIS
JOURNAL
DAILY,
SUNDAY
WEEKLY

Since the Journal reduced in price
from 25 to 10 cents a week. it has greatly
extended its circulation, reaching a
large number of people hitherto unable
to afford the luxury of a first class daily
paper. Reports from agents and SUBJ
scribers indicate the result which was
to be expected, namely, that what was
first regarded as "a luxury has become
a necessity. and that the new readers
not only remain. but their list is con.
stantly increasing.
1t is the purpose of the Journal To
make itself eve more indispensable ia
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 new
features and improvements from time
to time as are in accord with journalists
progress and that may tend to the ads
vantage of its readers. 1t will, for ex.
ample. give increased attention to Stats
and local interests. What Indianiana
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 and social enterprises
of the community call for additional
consideration and space, With this in
view it's corps OF correspondents has
been increased until it has a representa-
