THE COURIER'S IMPROVED PRINTING PLANT New Simplex Type Setting in Operation A Few Words Descriptive of this Wonderful Piece of Labor Saving Mechanism. Siuoe tho Roruu River Courier has been nuder the present management the constant aim has been toward im provement iu all ways. We desire to give onr readers tho best . paper in Southern Oregon and every effort is being made to that end. The Courier is tho first newspaper iu Southern Oregon to install a type setting ma chine, the first to adopt modern , up-to-date printing methods and to dis card the old. The Courier will keep right to the front iu machine eqnip nient.as in general excellence. We cannot complain of our treatment by the people of Josephine county. Tliey arc giving us a most gratifying sup port, and we appreciate it. The Cou rier muiling list is exinuding rapidly and constantly and the increase has never been at a swifter rate than dur ing tho present year of 11)02. The recent addition to our print ing plant is one of great importance and increases its efficiency and capac ity in a very great degree. We cordially invite tho readers of thisjpiijier'to'oiill at the office at any time during the day and witness the operation of the machine. Believing onr friends will bo interested iu knowing something of this fine piece of mechanism, we present herewith a cnt of the Simplex, and a description which will enable anyone to under stand its working: The machine was received at this office direct from the factory at Man chester, Conu., in the K. D. state, and boxed fur shipment weighed near ly 22,000 pounds. Tho manufac turers sent one of their exjiert ma chinists, Mr. Howard Davis of Chica go, to install tho machine and in iui incredibly short time after tho first Ikix wiw mipuckcd ho hud the differ ent jmrts assembled and the Simplex assumed is jirojuT npis'iirance. It is pruliahle that on no labor suv ing. machine has more time and money been i-xjeiidcd than on a device to set and distribute tye. For over a cen tury inventors have straggled with the. question, aud while their efforts were jsirtially successful, it has only been iu tho'iaist 10 years that a prac tical machine has been put on the market. It seems like an impossi bility that any combination of ma chinery other than, that encompassed in the human body could separate nearly a hundred characters, pick them up again, form them iuto words. combine the words into sentences and place them iu readiness for that older but none the less marvelous result of brains the modern printing press. The Simplex diss it though, and diss it five or six times as fast as the most rapid compositor. It was easy to make mistakes In (he old way. An V would slip in the'h' box or a'd' In the 'n' box, but the Sim plex can make no such mistakes. The operator can and doubtless will continue to make mistakes, but they will bo fewer than before and the liardships of the proof reader will be considerably lessened and the sensi bilities of the critical newsiMisr nailer shocked less frequently than before. It would be almost an Impossibility to give an accurate description of this wonderful machine and the only way to get even a faint idea of its possi bilities is to examine its workings. We publish a picture which is ac curate as far as general aj araiices go, bnt of course gives no idea as to how it is oj rati d. The Simplex trpe setter uses just the same kind of tyj as is set by hand, hiwh individual type has a separate combination of "nicks" or notches cnt on the i-dge, aud on this fact is bawd the fundamental prinei. plu of the machine. As will be noticed in the 1 letnn. tlm l.al i.t tl,u Ui.., Machine Installed and Now in the Office. plex consists of two cylinders, one above and rotating on the other. In both cylinders, extending vertical ly their full length, are 90 parallel channels, each channel correspond ing to some one typo. To distribute tho typo in the first place, the channels of tho upper cylinder are filled with "dead mat tr"(type that has been used) and it is revolved step by step. At each step or movement of tho distributer cylinder the bottom type of each line of dead matter is tested by tho wards or channels of the lower cylinder, un til it fliulB one exactly corresponding aud drops down into the lower mng aziuo. Tho lower magazine is station ary and at tho bottom of each chan nel it contains a lever Which is con nected with a keyboard similar to that of a typewriter. When a ehar acter on the keyboard is pressed down the lever releases tho corresponding character from tho channel and de posits it on a rapidly moving disc which carries it around the machine to a "packer"which packs tho letters into a line iu their proiier order, iu an upright position, or, to use a printer's phrase, "standing on their feet." A long lino of type rapidly forms in front of the operator, and when ho has enough for his purpose he whirls his chair around, and with a small instrument called a "grab' separates enough from tho long lint to mako the line tho measure he is setting. This ho justifies or "sinces", and then takes another line and so on. When two persons are working at tho sumo time, one tsT- ats tho keyboard and the other dis s the sjiacing. As soon as one line is sjiaced it is automatically pushed back to mako room for another and at the (tamo time tho matter is leaded if so desired. After tho machine is once iu ojM ra tiou all that is necessary in the way of distribution is to place a galley of dead tyisj on the side of the upper cylinder in a place prewired for it. It docs tho work jsTfectly, aud while it is apimrcutly simple, it would be imK)ssihlo to explain the matter intelligently, so wo won't try, but again invite you to come mid see for yourself. Tho Simplex is small and comjiaet, and occupies no more floor scn than an ordinary coal stove, and while it took brains and lots of them to invent it, it is of remarkably simple con strnciou and not at all liable to get out of resilr. We have had it in operation only a few days, but that is long enough to discover Us) trait worth, and every time wo seo it work, with alomst human intelligence, wo feel like taking ol, our hat in its presence. It is certainly the best and most wonderful machine that ever graced a country printshop. Reveal i a Crut Stent.

Washington Letter. WasiiixiiToM, May 12, 1902. "I consider that we bsre achieved a rsmaikable success and that we have demonstrated to tbe satisfaction of the most skeptival the immense practical benefits to be derived from the intelli gent application of scientific knowledge to the sisuplest agticultural subjects," aid the secretary of agriculture, when I called on him Saturday. Mr. Wilson had before hiiu a telegram from Professor Whitney, chief of the bureau of soils, giving the prices at which the shade grown Sumatra tobacco, raised under the supervision of the bureau of soils, has sold at public auction. ''We have long known that Professor Whitney's experi ments had proved successful," contin tiuued the secretary, "but we realized that the actual demonstration would couio when the tobacco, grown in accord ance with our system, came to be sold under the hammer. The crop averaged $1.25 per pound, as against an average slightly under 25 cents, which the native Connecticut tobacco has brought. The crop produced an average ol 1,000 pounds per acre and the profit was $1 per pound net. We consume $0,000,000 worth of this wrapper tobacco annually. It will therefore require that but 11,000 acres be devoted to this variety of tobacco, and tbe saving to the country of money, for merly spent outside its limits, will amount to $(3,000,000. The whole credit of this experiment belongs to Professor Whitney and bis system of soil survey, by which it was discovered that there existed in the Connecticut valley soil precisely like the Sumatra soil on which has been grown for years the wrapper tobacco we have imported. "But our work is just begun. We now import Dller tobacco to the amount o $8,000,001) annually. Our soil sur veyors are searching for localities which will grow that, and believe they have found the proper soil in sections ol Pennsylvania, Ohio, North Carolina and Texas. In a tew years I believe we will be able to grow at homo $14,000,000 worth of tobacco, which wo formerly Im ported, and at an extremely handsome profit to the grower. If wo could per suade cougress to appropriate sufficient funds to carry on this work en a scale commensurate with its importance, we would be able to make more rapid prog ress, but we have reason to feel well satisfied at our progress so far." While Secretary Wilson gives to Professor Whit ney all the credit for the discovery of the "Sumatra soil," etc., it is only fair to say that Professor Whitney has received every encouregoment from the secretary, who immediately grasped the scope and importance of the soil survey, and under whose protection tho former division ol soils has become a bureau with largely extended facilities. Representative Henry of Connecticut, whom I saw Satuiday, is no less en thusiastic than bocretury Wilson over the great success of the tobacco experi ments, which he believes will very ma terially add to the agricultural resources of his state. The sudden death of Representatives Cummings, Otey and Salmon suspended all business in the house of representa tives during the early part of last week, and the only legislation enacted was the tiill providing for admission as states ol Oklahoma, Arizona and New Mexico. This week the house expects lo take up tne naval appropriation bill after passing the bill of Representative Adams, which will so amend the statutes as to permit the issue of passports lo the residents ol our insular possessions. Saturday was devoted to eulogies of tho late Repre sentative Polk of Pennsylvania and the late Senator Kylu of South Dakota. All last week in tho senate was de voted to the Philippine bill, with the prospect, at this writing, that the mess ure will not be disposed of beforo tlye first of June. When shorn of parti san flamboyance, tho iliirnreuces be taeen the democrats and the repub licans are vastly less than the public would Fiippostf. In so far as tho bill is concerned, the democrats hold that it gives too great Power to the Philippine commission, which, by Its provisions, is authorized to lease and sell public lauds, to grant franchises ami permits lo cut lumber, etc. In ngrd to policy, the democrats claim that there should be a declaration that, when the Filipinos have demonstrated Iheir ability to govern themselves, they would !u granted com plete free. loin in inlerniil allairs, with such an internal protectorate as this guveriimeut now proposes to exer cise over Cuba. As many republicans believe that to he tlm en I at which the United Stales will eventually arrive in dealing with the islands, and as II seems extremely possible tl.ut it might be a quarter of a century or more lcluru the Filipinos could demonstrate their ra pacity for sell government, it will he seen that, did nut politics figure so argely in lliu matter, it would not be difficult for the two parties to arrive al a uniform policy in regard to the islands. Senator Islii has already asked that a day be set for a vote on lint bill, but the How of oratory is rot to he checked at present. Of courne, tin t.i Is little doubt but tint the present bill, with, perhaps, some minor amendments, will eventually pass. Tho arrangement for the coming un veiling of the UjchauiUMU statue on the square opposite the white house and on the same equaru on which the statue fo Lafayette now stands, are progressing with exceeding smoothness. The Count de Rochambsau, with a largo parly ol distinguished Frenchmen, will partici pate arid will bs attended in Washington by a de'iid of marines from a French warship. F.lsburute exercises will be a feature of the unveiling and the presi dent will give a dinner party to the dis tinguished gties's, Ninety invitations will be l-siied. On Thursday last .Mrs. Roosevelt gave a lawn party iu the grounds of the while hnure. Handsome tents were pit. dud for the accomodation of the guests and the Marine band was iu attendance During the afternoon the president made his appearance, looking very debonaire in the riding costume which be had dunned prepatory to his customary after noon ride. He strode about, clanking his spurs in apparent enj jyment of their rattle, and greeting his wife's guests iu his usual cordial manner, (Iyer three hundred guests were iu attendance aud tbe affair was voted great success.
