% to 10 cents per week. it has greatly ex-
tended its circulation, reaching a large
number of people hitherto unable to afford
the luxury of first-class daily paper. Re-
ports from agents and subscribers indicate
the result which 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 them
list is constantly increasing.
1t is the purpose of the Journal to make
itself even more indispensable to its
patrons, new and DID, and to still further
widen its field. To this end it will not only
endeavor TO maintain the characteristics
which have established its reputation as
by far the best newspaper in Indiana, but
will add such new features and improves
ments from time to time are in accord
with journalistic progress and that may
tend to the advantage of its readers. 1t
will, for example, give increased attention
to State and local interests. What Indi-
anians want is a paper in which Indiana
affairs are given especial prominence and
Importance. This want the Journal has al
ways supplied as no other paper published
outside or inside the State is able TO do;
but the rapidly developing industries and
business and social enterprises of the COM
munity call for additional consideration and
space. With this I'm view its corps Of COR
respondents has been increased until IL has
a representative in nearly every town in
the State. Special travelling correspond
ents 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 Gems
ter of Indiana the Journal is afforded un-
usual facilities for securing news promptly,
and, what is of greater consequence. Is
able to reach its subscribers without delay.
The running of morning trains from In
dianapolis is very favorable to the early
distribution Of papers sent by mail or ex-
press, and in most towns within a radius
of hundred miles Journals are delivered
as early as in the city where they are
printed. In the more remote counties there
is but little loss Of time in transportation.
The Journal is the paper for Indianians
and particularly for Indiana Republicans.
Although the campaign is ended. the COM
ing session of Congress and subsequent
change of administration involve political
problems and proceedings likely to be OF
the most direct personal concern to every
farmer and business in the State. All
such matters will be set forth In detail,
the Journals Washington correspondent
being instructed to give especial attention
to everything having a possible bearing on
Indiana interests.
But though the Journal is Republican in
politics IL is non-partisan in the publication
of news Its constant endeavor is TO Sc
cure facts unbiased by prejudice and to
make its columns trustworthy records
of each days happenings. A large edi-
torial force supplements the work OF the
rress associations and the correspondents,
and furnishes careful supervision for each
department.
The Sunday Journal has a well-estab-
lished literary character, superior TO that
of any Western paper 1t is not defaced by
plate matter nor filed with hetero-
geneous mass of syndicate literature, but
its contributions and miscellany are chosen
with a view TO their special fitness and
adaptability to the tastes OF the readers.
The reading matter in any given number OF
the Sunday Journal is equal in quantity
and is not inferior in quality to that found

tional adjunct and a source of entertain-
ment the Sunday Journal Is Indispensable
