The plan requires the payment cf a dollar on subscription, which on- titles the subscriber to a guesa as to an unknown number.

GUESSING CONTEST INCREASING IN ITERE3T. It Is less than a month slnco Tho Journal's diamond ""guosslng contest was launched, and already ovor half of tho subscriptions under tho plan havo boen disposed of. Kvory person who has paid a dollar aubscrlh tlon slnco January 11th has rocolrtd a guessing receipt which ontltloi" tho holder to ono guess- on tho urknown number, and all guossora ox press satisfaction at tho opportunity and the manner in which tho con tost Is being conducted. All aro growing more and moro anxious to havo tho fortunate day arrive. Evory poreon who has only ono guosa seems to throb with that samo feeling of anxiety as tho ones who hav6 in moro, and, in fact, their ono guess is Just as good as though it wore accompanied by a dozen more. Several parties havo made their guesses by drawings threo figures from a sot just aB tho unknown number was drawn, and thus thoy hopo to have their conclusions similar to tho fortunato ono, but when it Is realized what a multltudo of numbers aro possible from such combinations oven this process cannot Insure success. Tho plain fact is that ove'ry gucsser Is on absolutely tho samo ground, for thoro can bo no proforred class and no favored fow. Tho absolute oquallty and falrnoss of tho proposition Is what pleases every participant in tho contest As a result of tho guessing contest subscriptions aro coming to Tho Journal from many unexpected sources. Many persons In and about Salem, as well as the various towns of tho county, aro ordorlng, ro nowlng and extending thor subscriptions. All rcallzc that thoy will moro than get their monoy's worth, besides a freo guoss on tho olo gant diamond ring. Ono of tho most momorablo guessing contests in tho history of this country was that conducted by tho Frank Leslie publishing houso dur ing tho last Cleveland campaign In 1892. Thoy offored a sorios of prizes to tho persons who could guoss tho nearest to tho winning can didate, and a young gentleman of Marlon county had tho honor of carrying off tho $200 prlzo. Ho was nono other than Allon Forward tho youug attorney of this city, and, although tho guess wa3 recorded In his father's namo, tho lato Blair Forward, tho young man mado the guesa. Ho estimated Cleveland's plurality at 375,000 and his father received a check for tho cash oftor tho returns had boon canvassed Only ono other person gucsBcd anywhoro near that figure, but ho was not near onough to win tho prize Not nearly so much Intorost waf taken in that contost In Salem as An tho oeo now being conductod by Tho Journal for tho $1G0 diamond rlug, and whon tho news camo of tho winner being a Marlon county boy, it was gratifying to all his frlonda If you do not win Tho Journal diamond yoursolf, some of your friends may, nnd that will be next to getting it in your own family.
