THE WONDERFUL LINOTYPE.

The Appleton Post taking Tor It's
text a brief article on the twenty first
anniversary of the linotype, says;
The linotype is one Of the most fas-
cinating machines in existence to OBJ
serve and study. TO the practical
mechanic the operations of the limo
type may seem nothing more than the
cunningly related interchange of
wheels, cams and levers, but to the
less materialistic spectator the ma
chine takes on almost the immortal
quality of intelligence. Merely the
way in which, just at the right moment
il reaches down its long arm, picks up
q handful of mats" and shoves them
onto the distributor shaft, a man
could watch with mouth agape for
half a day. But the most wonderful
thing about it is the thoughtful way
in which it looks out for its own safe
ty. Self-preservation is the first law
OF nature, but up to the age of the
linotype this principle had been rea-
lized and exercised exclusively by ami
mails and plants. endowed with the
vital spark and enough intelligence TO
enable them to make a choice between
what is good for them and what is i'll.
But the linotype knows too. 1t judges
conditions affecting its internal econ
omy with absolute accuracy. If some
ignorant or careless operator attempts
to abuse it and make it do things that
endanger it's delicate organism, it
simply lays down" and refuses to
work az all until it is convinced that
the operator has relented, or knows his
business. 1t looks after itself with
fidelity and never permits
itself to yield to temptation to strain
a point in response to a friendly
touch.

ly convinced that it is useless to look
for fair treatment from the House of

ernor to appoint such a commission
should be complied with. 1t is reason
able, and as politics would not figure
in the inquiry the people could accept
the verdict whatever il would be. The
recent probe of the Marquette institu-
tion was born of political hatred, and
an investigation by an unprejudiced
committee would be welcomed.

A FIXED DATE FOR EASTER?

The near approach of Easter gives
especial interest TO the probability
that the Swiss government will call "A
diplomatic congress shortly for the
standardization of the International
calendar and the establishment of a
fixed date for Easter Easter like the
Jewish passover is a movable feast.
the two being historically related. The
international Standardization of the
calendar would bring about the con-
temporaneous observance of Easter i'm
all the Christian churches, but would
not cause the Observance of Easter to
fall on the same day Of every year
The latter may turn out to be more
than matter for diplomatic arrange
ment, as ecclesiastical authorities may
decide that they have something to
say.
At present there are two calendars
in vogue-the Julian, adhered to by
the Greek church and Russia, and the
|Gregorian, which is used by the rest
of the civilized world. The difference
in the two calendars puts an interval
of thirteen days between the Easter of
the Greek church and that of the rest
of Christendom.
Easter is an important trade date
and its variability causes confusion to
merchants and manufacturers-com
mercial intercourse is handicapped
and the exchange Of commercial paper
becomes complicated. Merchants say
that spring business is slack until af-
ter Easter and if the festival came on
a fixed date each year it would be
an incalculable advantage.
The questions of an international
calendar and a fixed date for Easter
were first taken up two years ago by
the International Congress of Cham
bers of Commerce. Last year resolu
tions were adopted at the London ses-
sion, at which commercial organiza-
tions from twenty-five nations were
represented, declaring both changes
desirable.

THE MARQUETTE PRISON.

The House at Lansing gave way 10
the tears of the sob squad led by
the Detroit Journal. and adopted the
minority report of the Marquette pris-
son investigating committee.
The report was based almost en-
tircly upon the testimony OF the worst
criminals in Marquette, men who were
serving fourth and fifth terms for
most revolving crimes. The story was
popular because it told of alleged
cruelties to human beings and the ap-
plause from the women in the galleries
turned the heads of the members Of
the house until they magniied these
cruelties and voted tS oust everybody
who kept these desperate men under
control and away from society.
Representative Kalmbach told with
much feeling of the nogging Of Emil
Waltz, the man who after terribly mu-
ulatlng a little boy, killed him and
threw his body into an alley. He
caused tears to flow by his plea for
sympathy for such as these
Representative Straight argued sim
ilarly and waved knife with which
he said waltz had killed himself TO
escape "A logging.
