Recounts What Has Been Ac-
complished During Term
Of Office.
PROMISES FOR FUTURE
Endorses New York Candidate
and Predicts Victory at
Polls.

New York. October president
Taft delivered what will probably be
his only public address of the present
campaign at the banquet of the Ma
tional Republican League at the Hotel
Astor tonight. The Presidents speech
was marked by an unusually concilia-
tory tone toward the Insurgent wing
of the party. He gave "all factions of
the party" due credit for their share
In helping to put through Congress
the Legislative program. which the
President took occasion to outline In
some detail. The record of the past
eighteen months, he declared. was all
earnest OF the desire of the party to
fulfill Its platform promises and OBJ
legations, and he promised that If the
Republican majority in Congress
should be continued at the coming
elections, the work thus far left un-
done would be carried through to COM
pletion.
Upon the whole Republican party
the President bestowed the TUE OF
progressive. Then he undertook to
define Just what is meant by progress
sive."
"a party of true progress is not a
ma rtv OF radicalism," he declared amid
chaers at is not party of ultra con-
seryation." he added. and again was
cheered.
"a Progressive Republican," the
President went on. els one who recog-
nizes existing and concrete evils ano
who Is in favor of practical ana DEFINITE
steps to eradicate them"
Mentions Roosevelt.
Twice President Taft mentioned Col
onel Roosevelt by name IN connection
with the campaign against corporate
abuses. and aSth!rd time by inference,
when he referred to the New York sit
uation. The cause of Republicanism In
this State. he said. has been heartened
by brave declaration of principle ano
by the nomination OF a candidate 1or
Governor of the highest character ana
ability. Attic same time Mr Taft did
not taka an altogether sanguine View
OF the benefits that are to accrue from
direct primary experiments, but he
hoped that the idea could be turned to
a permanent ,betterment OF politics.
"But however effective these suggest
ed changes may prove at lrst," he add
ed, 81 venture" to say that no great
permanent good can come from them
unless they are accompanied by Il
change in the individual voter and his
awakening to the necessity for con-
slant watchfulness and effort on his
part to prevent the old evils from ap-
pearing In a new guise."
President Taft announced that ne
had directed the Tariff Commission to
make notreport of the work 1t has ac-
compIlshed up to this time until after
the election. He took this step, ne de-
clared. In order to lift the commission
out of politics entirely,

ty space bands to make blank space
between the words. What we have
spoken of as a mold is generally cal
led matrix, and the plural is matrices.
They are made of brass, and are
shown in figure 5. The letters Or
characters to be printed are indented
in the edge as at the letter "a, fig
ure s. The notches at "b" constitute
a part of their means of trayel, for
they fit into series of ridges shown
at "t' on figure 6, and a screw de-
vice draws them along until each ma
trix reaches the end of the particular
crease or ridge it hangs by, and it
falls into it's place in the magazine
directly under it.
Touching any character on the
keyboard, figure Z, causes matrix
to fall out of the magazine, figure 8,
-'a," and follow down a slide or belt
and take position with others at C.
When the line is full they appear as
shown in figure 8, the short pieces
being the matrices with the dents OF
letters in the edge, and the long pie
ces are the space bands separating
the words. Each matrix and each
space band is dropped into position
by touching keys very lightly and
quickly. Pressing key slowly brings
down a train of them all alike, and
1t is this feature in the mechanism
that enables the expert operator to
keep a train of them rushing down
in the desired combination to spell
out the words he wants. When the
line is full the operator presses le-

yer and the machine automatically
pushes and eleyates the line from
&c" Figure 81 to "R" the mechanism
being shown in larger scale in figure
10. Just back of it is the molding
or casting department of the machine
indicated in figure II, and the line
of matrices is shown very small, in
it's relative size just above the center
of the cog wheel. The relative, posi-
ton of all these parts may be seen
by referring to figure 2 on front page.
The matrices are pressed tightly

against a groove connecting with the
pot of melted metal, the dents in the
edges of the matrices being at the
groove. The plunger of the pump,
(see the arrow moves down and
forces the molten type metal through
the spout and into the dents or molds

enough to prevent the metal from
flowing into the dent at that point
sufficient to make perfect letter. In
order to secure perfect speed, the
operator cleans his space bands once
day.
The size of the type to be used is
determined by the magazine used.
Each magazine, figure 8, a. contains
two faces of type in both capital and
small letters. If another size is de-
sired, different magazine is put on,
it being detachable.

A few days ago while attending a
meeting of the Eastern Idaho Press
Club number of publishers asked
how we had come out in our venture,
whether we thought it advisable for
them to make the same venture in
their respective localities, whether the
Linotype Company is liable to be
harsh with them in case of hard
times, whether the machine often
gets out of order, etc. When we
have been out among our readers in
the country we have been asked many
things about this machine by persons
who do not find it convenient to visit
the Office and watch it in operation,
! and we present some matter here
which may be of interest to both
classes, first few statements for the
benefit of publishers, and then some
thing about the machine itself.
When our machine arrived the
company sent an expert to install 1t
who seemed just as much concerned
about every detail as we were, and
when, after few weeks, they learned
that our oil burner did not do well
with such oil as our local market af-
forded, they sent us free of charge,
one of their new gasoline heaters and
had an inspector visit us to see that
it was doing the work.
One of their men comes this way
occasionally to inspect the machine
and instructs the operator In any
thing he does not understand, and
there are no charges for 1t.
When we had paid twenty-seven of
the notes we we're unable to meet
some payments and received exten.
sion Of time by asking for it.
