Grit Our New Linotype Tho delays and annoyances inci dental to breaking in a new mechani cal compositor of the most approved pattern will we trust afford sufficient explanation of the shortcomings of this week's paper. Ihe new linotype is the product of the Mcrganthaler Linotype company of Brooklyn, New York, and is much advanced over the old typesetting machine that has done duty in this office for a number of years. ' The linotype arrived last week af ter having been on the road for three weoki from San Francisco. Through an error in tho freight of fice at San Francisco the machine was put on the wrong train and was shipped to Ogdcn, Utah. Nec essarily it had -to be returned almost fwfa f"i M before what a marvel it ia. Large and heavy in appearance, it haa mo tiona and oK-ratione as delicate aa those of a clock. Cam must meet roller, cog must meet cog, alide muxt meet alido all adjuated to the thouaandth of an inch and timed to the tinicat fraction of a avcond.
