UNIFORM DIVORCE LAWS.
Obstacles in the Way of Carrying
Out Gov. Pennypackcr's Plan.

Not long ago the claim that any
good thing in the way of legislative
suggestion could come ont of pcnnsyl.
rania would have been generally re-.
gardcd with doubt and suspicion. But
certain events there in the last three
OF four months have certainly awaken.
cd hope, and at least tended To in.
spire confidence. So now that the leg.
lSlaturc Of the state has at it's recent
session passed an act giving the gov
crnor power 20 appoint three commits
Sioncrs to attend the convention of
the commissioners for the Promotion
or the Uniformity of Legislation who
are To meet at Narragamsctt Pier this
moth, and later at Washington. We
must give ut least qualified credit for
Il spasm of public virtue.
The governor i sauthorizcd to 20
even further than that. and invite
other States to cooperate with Penn
sylvana In the effort to secure uni
form divorce laws throughout all the
States Of the Union. He has already
communicated with the governor of
new YORK, who. while doubling his
power to appoint the commissioners
asked for. has turned the matter over
with his approval OF the general pro.
fN'S'''ci' " VIC HfIlOl iltIuIcT VI INC
Commission for Promoting Uniformity
OF Legislation, with the suggestion
that that body represent the State in
any convention that might be arrang-
cal for Washington. II may he assumed
that Il majority Of States already favor
uniform divorce legislation, aud il is
becoming more and moro evident that
without such uniformity the scandals
and evils of divorce must increase
throughout the land.
There are two ways of attaining
this, or seeking to obtain it, One is
that proposed by the PENNSYLVANIA
movement. and the other is by con
StitutiDnal amendment permitting the
passage OF II national law Of equal and
impartial application all over the
such law, but the methods through
which il could he established. if at all,
would be slow and tedious, doubtful as

policy, at least so long as = working
alternative is presented. II is not de-
sirablc to make the federal govern
mcnt any more paternalistic than VIC
have TO for the protection Of society
and ii is proper to undertake the task
OF bring the States together in IL gen
cral understanding and common prac-
ticc before res0rting To the more dras-
tic measure.
But There are. nevertheless. furmld-
able obstacles To this proposed con
cert Of States. In some Of them, where
the states rights idea is strongest
such measure might alarm the pco-
pie us savorng too much of IA surrcn-

her divorce legislation on CONNER

in different States: still the end pro
posed is so desirable that general
effort should be made to bridge over
by compromise minor differences. so

GLACIER INSTALLS A SIMPLEX
Another Milestone in the March of
Progress for Hood River-COme
See the New Typesetter.

Last week the Glacier installed q
late style Simplex Type Setter. The
addition OF this new and expensive
machinery is necessary to more fully
meet the requirements for publishing
a newspaper such as the enterprise and
progressiveness of this community de-
mands. The largest possible amount
of news matter must be handled, and
hand composition Is becoming too
slow in this rushing age. With the
Simplex, we will not only be able
to handle larger amount of news
but do it easier and better, holding
the forms open later and getting the
best of the news of Pthe day-that
which comes in late in the day.
We cordially invite the readers of
this paper to call at the office any
time during the day and witness
the operation of the machine. Be-
lieving our friends win be interested
in knowing something of this fine
piece of mechanism, we present here
with cut of the Simplex, and a de-
which will enable any one
to understand its working.
The body Of the Simplex consists
of two cylinders, one above and rota-
ting on the other, having common
axis. In both cylinders, extending
vertically their full length, are so
parallel channels, those in the lower
cylinder forming the magazine into

when the same little steamer lat least
the hull of the same steamerj struck
a rock just this side of Sprague. all
most completely wrecking her, remarks
The Dalles Chronicle.
Thel night was one of the rouphest
known on the river; it was showing
hard and the river was full of floating
ice. She left the Cascades at 5 80
with Captains Johnson and McNulty
both in the pilot house. At 6 80 the
blackness of the night, wind and ice
caused her to veer from her course
and strike a rock, making a hole
foot wide and eight feet long in her
hull.
Two minutes after she struck she
had sunk in about seven feet of water.
The deck aft was under water about
a foot and cattle on board we're stand.
ing in six to ten inches of water.
AT daylight Truman Butler, who
was purser, and two of the crew, took
a small boat and went to Cascades for
help, when Day Bros. boat. Maria
was brought up and took the passen,
gers to Cascades.
The Dalles City was built In the fall
of 1891, costing altogether about
S24, 600. After the accident her house
was put on new hull, and she has
since done splendid service. She will
soon be repaired and blowing the wa
ters OF the Columbia again.

idly an instant to permit the drop
ping of any type which may have
found its channel.
This accuracy of movement is OBJ
tanned by employing a cam to impart
the step by step movement to the re-
volving. The cam revolyes on a
shaft, the bearings of which are rigid
ly attached to the crosshead of the
machine, which in turn is firmly at
tached to a main shaft extending
through both cylinders. Motion is
impaired to the cam through gears
extending back to shaft on the
crosshead driven by belt or motor.
The cam works against rolls having
bearings on pins driven solidly into
the top of the cylinder. These rolls,
As in number, form a circle about
four inches less in diameter than the
cylinder. As there are just half AS
many as there are channels. the cam
in each revolution gives the cylinder
two forward thrusts, moving it each
time distance equalling the distance
between the channels. The rolls are
shaped to conform to the shape Of
the cam; this insures the accurate
movement Of the cylinder. The rolls
overcome friction, thus preventing
wear on the cam, and this, the part of
the machine requiring greatest degree
of accuracy, will work for years with
out readjusting.
On solid upright, fastened to the
top to the crosshead, and at the low
er end to a ring attached to the bot
tom of the lower cylinder, is brack-

nels of the upper, and is stored for
resetting. The channels are slightly
wider than the body of the type which
the machine is made to set.
On the forward side of each channel
in the lower cylinder series of steel
strips are inserted and project part
way across. They are called wards,
as they perform the same functions
as the wards of lock. The combina-
tion of wards in each channel differs
from that in every other channel.
Each type character in font is given
a combination of hicks corresponding
with the coordination of wards in one
particular channel, and can enter this
channel only. The central ward ex-
ends the full length of the channel,
and is cut off just short enough to
permit one type to be pushed out at
the bottom when the key is touched.
The channels in the upper cylinder
have no wards, so that lines contain
ing all characters In the font will en-
ter any channel in this cylinder free
ly. In each channel Is sliding
weight, the function of which is to
press lightly down on the line OF
dead type contained in the channel,
SO that when the potion type comes
to its proper channel in the lower
cylinder it win drop quickly. These
weights are lifted up when the chan
mel is to be loaded, the line of dead
type inserted into the channel and
the weights lowered again on top of
the line.
The channels in the upper cylin-
der are filed with lines of dead type
and the cylinder is revolved step by
step, bringing each of its channels
in turn directly over each channel in
the lower cylinder At each step or
movement of the distributor the bot
tom type of each line of dead type is
tested by the wards in the channels
of the cylinder. Every type with a
combination of hicks matching the
combinations of wards in the channel
over which it is brought drops down,
while those differing in combination
rests on the tops of the wards, they
in turn dropping when the cylinder
in its revolution brings them to their
own channels. As the distriputer can
supply type much faster than operat-
ors can set it up, it is not necessary
to keep it working all the time.
The mechanism by which all this is
accomplished is accurately made, and
is wonderfully simple in its construc-
tion. When it is understood that each
of the 80 channels in the upper cyl
inder matches perfectly with each Of
the channels of the lower cylinder,
this accuracy will be appreciated.
This in itself would not secure proper
distribution unless the upper cylinder

coincide as described, held there rig

one to this county, Wasco county, for
