The Jersey City news. (Jersey City [N.J.]) 1889-1906, 1894-08-06

City News.

First in Eyerything-.'The JERSEY
City News.
First in. everything, THE JERSEY
Cry NEWS today inaugurates an
other great progressive movement in
the newspaper history of Jersey City.
A large part of this edition is set up
on the linotype plan by the new Mer-
genthaler machines which were set
up last week in THE News compos-
ing room, and inside a couple OF
weeks the entire paper will be set up
by these machines, completely replac-
ing the old style hand composition
except in so far as the displayed ad-
yertisements are concerned. By means
of this important evolutionary step,
THE News confidently expects to
greatly strengthen the service it al
ready gives the public. By the ma
chimes. the saving of time and energy
are so considerable that both more
news and later news a be given h
public than ever before, and the paper
still placed upon the street for sale at
the usual hour.
THE JERSEY CITY NEWS is the first
paper in Jersey City TO take advant-
age-of this extraordinary modern in
yention-an invention SO remarkable
that it stands hardly second to that
of the art of printing itself. The
NEWS is the second paper in this State
to adopt it, the first being the Daily
Advertiser of Newark. In time u
slow going competitors of HUDSON
county will doubtless follow our lead
as they have done more or less in
other forward movements; but in this
matter as on SO many previous occa-
sions, THE NEWS is FIRST.
The NEWS first introduced a high
speed printing press into Hudson
county. 1t first inaugurated the policy
of covering the local news on a higher
plane than that of the police court and
the low dance hall. 1t first showed
what an independent press conld
do in the way of purifying politics
and reforming the government of the
city and country. 1t first introd uced
and printed a full tclegaphic and
cable news service, covering, through
the unrivalled system of the United
Press, the daily history of the entire
globe as fully and completely as any
New York afternoon paper.
Its present progressive step is sim
ply in keeping with the policy it has
pursued in now nearly six years of
successful and progressive existence.
And THE NEWS is not done yet.
From day to day and month to month,
new features, mechanical or other
wise, will be introduced, keeping the
paper abreast of the times, and plac-
ing it ultimately ahead of any other
paper in the state.

A curious and interesting fact given
by the registrar-general in his Stats
tics for 1898 is that in the Celtic por-
tions OF the United kingdom the pro-
portion of the female births is much
hihgcr than il is in the non-Ccltic por-
tions. The highest proportions are
found in Cumberland. Cornwall and
north Wales. while south Wales is only
a little way down in the list, and has a
proportion considcra bly, above the aver

portion Of female births is higher in
