The Indianapolis Ledger (1912-192?) was a newspaper in Indianapolis, Indiana. It was published and edited by John Dalphin Howard.[1] It marketed itself as a "colored newspaper for the home devoted to the interests of the race in Indiana."[2] William A. Chambers worked for the paper.[3] Arthur D. Williams also served at the paper and was involved with baseball.[4]

The paper covered black baseball.[4]: 51  It noted Madame Walker arriving at a game in a limousine and engaged in a campaign to stem "drinking, gambling, and rowdiness" at the baseball park.[4]: 55  It published second baseman Wallace C. Gordon's poem on race relations.[4]: 57 

Howard was photographed with Elwood C. Knox (son of George L. Knox and a manager of the Indianapolis Freeman), Andrew Rube Foster, and C. J. Taylor after the Indianapolis ABCs won a World Series Championship.[4]: 70
