Used BY Daily Papers

Every daily newspaper in the coun-
try employs from one to 35 OF these
machines, SO that there must be about
"a, 900 used in the daily newspaper Of
fees in the United States and Canada
alone.
And this is not ali. All the up to
date county seat weekly papers now
use the machine, and many of the
small country town papers are adding
this great time saver to their equip
ment. A %typesetting machine will
easily do the work of FIVE hand COM
positors. Were it not for the machine
in the Register Office it would be be
impossible to get out the readable
paper our patrons receive from week
to week.

bills had been killed without considera-

senate utility bill, especially by the
senator from Kingsbury, until it had
been further investigated, and this
caused Shultz of K~ingsbury, to break

Appropriation for Armory

DR.. Miller arrived from Pierre last
evening and reported that $4,000 had
been appropriated by the Legislature
for az armory at State College.
This is hardly enough for a good
armory, but will be a start. Next ses-
sion can add to this enough to bring
it up to $150,000 which is estimated
will be needed for a good well equip
ped building,

N%ON-PART|SAN
LEAGUE MEETING
AN INTERESTING MEETING HELD
HERE SATURDAY WITH BIG
ATTENDANCE
BR0OMNGS COUNTY IS WELL ORGANIZED
Aim Is to Put Farmers In Control Of
State Politics-FoIlowine North
Dakota Plan

a large gathering OF farmers listened
to an able address on the object and
aims Of the North Dakota Farmers
Non Partisan League given at the
Grand Opera House Saturday after
noon.
O. S. Evans. secretary-treasurer of
the North Dakota organization, and
Rev. VIM. II. Talmage, of Flandreau.
who is carrying OF the work of organ
iZing in this state, were present, the
latter making the address at the open
melting and the former doing the work
at the secret meeting which followed
the public one.
Rev. Talmage went into the history
Of the organization in North Dakota.
Twice the people of that state voted to
build terminal elevators for the farm
ers and twice the Legislators turned the
PROPOSITION down. The last time 500
ture and demanded that action be
taken but were told to go home and
slop their hogs. They went home all
right and stopped their hogs, but they
also got busy among their n%eighbors
and with 200 autos soon had the state
organized so that the farmers could
handle the politics and elect men who
would legislate in the interest of the
farmers. Last fall one of the 500 men
who was told to slop his hogs was
elected governor. Every mar on the
non-partisan ticket except one was
elected, and the fellows who were in
control two years < are doing the
stopping if they have any to do.
The aim of the league is to get bet
ter grain inspection and to work to
gether in marketing the products OF
the farms. t obuild up the community
both town and country, to advance
higher education in the country dis
and when they are hurt the whole com
munity suffers. If the farmer has
plenty of money he buys at home. 1t is
only when he has to figure mighty
close to make his funds meet his needs
that he sends to Sears & Sawbuck. To
gain these ends they are going at it
from the political end. The fellows
who have been fleeing the farmer
have been in politics to the limit. The
farmers now propose to get into the
game themelves and they are throw
ing present party ties to the wind and
are organizing along non-partisan
lines.
There are o 10000 in the organiza-
tion in South Dakota and the move
mcnt has hardly started. Moody couu-
ty has 80 per cent of the farmers or
ganiZed and Bookings county IS per
cent. In Brown county nearly every
farmer IN the county is 4 member. Rev.
Talmage stated that if the movement
grows only half as fast the nex two
years as il has the past year that
North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana
and Minnesota would elect a solid
delegation of congressman and have
enough votes in congress to hold the
balance Of power.

II REV0LUT|ONZED THE PRINTING TRADE
Now Used in All Up to Date Printing
Shops-Does Work Of Five
Persons

The first machine from which limo
type bars or slugs We're cas- has lately
been deposited in the division of
graphic arts OF the United States ma
tional museum, and is located in the
Smithsonian building at Washington.
This particular idea, the invention of
Mergenthaler, revolutionized printing;
it was the first machine TO cast a COM
plete line of type ready to print from.
There are three machines exhibited
in the Smithsonian halls, which are
closely related to the development of
this contribution to the art of printing.
Two of them are early models, which
rices), from which stereotype casts
We're made.
The third of the series exhibited was
the first machine from which limo
type bars or slugs were cast. On the
printing face the characters formed A
complete and solid line of type, similar
to a line of individual type soldered to-
gether.

linotype machine, July, 1884, in the
Biography Of Ottmar Mergenthaler

gathered at the shop on Bank lane in
Md, before the inventor was
ready and had to wait until he made
some adjustments.

Steam Turned On

Finally everything seemed to be
ready. Mr.. M~ergenthaler called for
the steam power to De attached. He
composed a line, removed the stopper
from the metal pump and touched the
line key. Smoothly and silently the
matrices slid into their places, were
clamped and aligned, the pump dis
charged its contents, a finished limo
type, shining like silver, dropped from
again to their normal positions. All
this was the work of but Is seconds"
This machine was never used CON
mercially, but it east a number of slugs
and articles were set up by this ma
chine from which prints were taken.
When it was completed the National
Topographic Co. had high hopes that
it would be a practical machine, but d
number of defeats developed and it
proved too slow. The scheme was
finally abandoned in favor of a single
matrix-that is, a short bar with one
character stamped upon it, such as is
used today, instead of a long bar with
the whole alphabet. The application
for the patent on this machine was fled
August 80, 1884, but was not granted
until March 8, 1885.
