The spelling Reform.

The Eleotrotyper.
Itisa matter OF no small qualification to
us to witness the approval which has greet
ed the dforts OF the Electrotyper to forward
the spelling reform. Printers ar usually
among the most conssryativ Of people;
but, 30 far as we hay heard any express
sions Of opinion, they ar, almost without
exception, in favor Of modification OF
our present outrageous orthografy. More
gratifying still, We find the number Of
those who SHAY the courage OF their con-
victions" is growing larger, day by day,
aad journals ar one after another adopting
more or less OF the corrected forms OF
spelling. Some choose the eleven emen-
dations Of the American biological Asso-
citation, while others go still farther and to
these add rules OF their own or conform TO
those OF the Spelling Reform Association.
A number Of leading and influential news
papers--notably the Chicago Tribune, New
York Home Journal and Independent Utica
Herald, Burlington HdtUleye, and others
hav taken advanced grounds and set the
example OF revolt against the absurd diCta
OF dictionary and spelling-book makers.
In this they ar endorst by nine-tenths of
the brains, scholarship, and dcommon-sense
OF the country.
1t is patent that reform in our ortho-
graiY must progress slowly; that no
sweeping change can be made to secure
general approval, however well the peo-
pie at large may be prepared to see
some amendments made. For this and
other reasons 1t is very desirable that
some uniformity OF action should be had,
lest we run Into chaos (which by the way,
would be no worse than the "chaos petrii
fied" exemplified In our present ortho.
graiy). 20 this end we invite q confer.
ence Of such Journalists as are friendly TO
the reformed spelling, with view to the
adoption Of some precise and detinit rules
to be observed by all. OF course 1t may
be understood that all af not bound TO
conform literally to any rules so adopted,
but rather that freedom Of action may be
be had by each individual, while at the
same time deierring In the main 10 the
general sentiment 1t Is far better that
half dozen journals should together
adopt few sensible amendments than for
each one TO run Oh on line oi his own,
huu all AL NhIltlCb VIII ttsCll Otuei' "a
united effort on the part Of few is worth
more to the; cause OF good spelling than
struggling efforts on the part Of many.
In this connection wc would suggest TO
the Western State and District Editorial
Association that they could add much TO
the interest OF their meetings by inviting
some prominent spelling reformer 10 adj.
dress them upon his fayorite theme, with
the view Of bringing it's manifest adyan-
taRes before them. A good speaker on
this subject can easily be secured, and we
trust It will be done. Sts, =.
All publishers who hayin anyway ad.
vocated or adopted spelling reform will
benefit the cause by forwarding copies OF
their respectiy Issues to the Secretary Of
the Spelling Reform Association, SO Haw-
ley street, Boston, Mass.

which has engaged the steamer Twilight as the
first OF a large feet which the season advances
will be put on the same route. This trip is an all
and land inside the beach in Canarse Bay. The
run is made in less than two hours, and as has
Ion% Tranch. landings are made with as much ease
and safety as in still water. The Twilight starts
from Twenty -second-st., LerOyst. and Pier No At
conyenient hours and returns as late as o'clock
from the iron pier. The fare is lower than by any
other route single tickets at 80 cents, and round
trip tickets az 80 cents each admitting free TO- the
nier. tThe pier and the mammoth hotel, along
whose front the steamer passes close to the shore,
are the chief attractions for this year at Rockaway
and both are certainly immense structures. Inc
formal opening of the pier will take place in week
or ten days, when appropriate ceremonies will be
held
