This paper has had some refer ence to the typesetting machine In vented by Rev. Baylus Cade, former ly of this city, but-now of Shelby. Mr. Cade claims great, things for his machine and if it will measure up to the standard he has. set for It, it is good-bye to the Mergenthaler. The Mergenthaler does the work wonderfully well, but It Is a very complicated machine and very costly. On the other hand Mr. Cade's ma chine' Is represented as being very simple In construction and compara tively cheap. Some points about Mr. Cade's invention given by the Char lotte Chronicle, whose editor has re cently had a talk with the Inventor will be found interesting: "Mr. Cade's type-setter is not run by power. Two men can carry It and place it at any point desired as easi ly as they ." would handle an office desk. It is operated, by a small air compressor. ui "It will set any face of type from nonpareil to job display. The opera tor can read and correct the line be fore it is cast. There Is no cumber some and complex machinery for the return of the matrices. The machine can be sold for $500, which will place it within the reach of newspaper pub lishers all over the country. "Mr. Cade is a machinist from youth. He has been working on this invention for a period of twenty years. His first machine is now being built in Philadelphia and will be com pleted and given a test within three months. It has been inspected and approved by the best mechanical ex perts in the country, who say that it will do what is claimed for It, We are drawing this much from a con versation we had with Mr. Cade this morning. Much that he said was not for the public print at this time. Did we feel privileged to say more, we might inspire greater faith In this in vention. It was suggested to Mr. Cade that if he has what lie says he has, he will die a millionaire. His response was that money-making was his last thought. He is working for the good of humanity, for In giv ing to the world a type-setter of the character which he invented,; he would certainly be conferring a bless lng on the whole people. We believe that a paper in Shelby, his home town is to have the honor of making the first run on his new machine. Mr, Cade and the machinists who have passed on his Invention may find themselves mistaken in the expected performances of the machine, but in case they hit it right, we may look for a slump In Mergenthaler. stock The next few months will tell the tale." NEWSPAPER ADVERTISING. There are many ways of advertis- ing and many different schemes are hit upon. All, of course, do good for anything that brings and keeps the name of the firm desiring bus! ness before the public Is a good prop osition for that Arm. But all who have given the matter any careful study agree that newspaper advertis ing Is the begt way to reach the public with any specific proposition as well a to keep before the public In a gen eral sense. The Flndlay, (Ohio) Re publican prints some information on this subject that shows the futility of circular advertising. That paper says: '': Jl "The futility of circular advertis ing as compared with newspaper ad vertising Is proved in a dozen differ ent ways, but In none mors forcibly than Id the fact that Flndlay firms that expend a part of their verttslng mliiiey in this wuy are now and have been for more than u year eudiug'dr-1 cular announcements to persons who have been dead ns long as that. " A Findley you us woman whose husband has been dead several years that exoend a Dart of their advertising matter addressed to him, much mail ! of this description bearing a two-cent stamp. "People who can read at all read the newspapers. If they cannot read they are not likely to be valuable cus tomers. The wise advertiser spends his money where it will do him the most good. He puts very little of it into circular letters, which annoy the housewife and in about six cases in ten are consigned without reading to the waste paper basket. "Newspapers are read. The ad vertising in reputable newspapers tells the reader what he (or, to be exact, she) wants in the shops, and she reads carefully and profits by what she reads. So does the mer chant." Rear Admiral Schroeder, commander-in-chief of the Atlantic fleet has begun a crusade against the smok ing of cigarettes by the enlisted men. That is all right as far as It goes, but the admiral might extend his crusade to the officers and place his ban upon cigars and wine. In doing that he would be entirely consistent. This is Fayetteville's celebration day. The good people of that city and section are celebrating the sign ing of the Liberty Point resolutions by thirty-five patriots of the Cape Fear section on June 20, 1775. The event is worthy of commemoration and we congratulate Fayetteville on the success attending this occasion. Some Essentials in Musical Defini tions, by M. F. MacConnell. Cloth post octavo, UK pages. Oliver Ditson CompanyBoston. This excellent and handsomely printed book is a newly revised and enlarged edition of a book published seven years ago and, in the Old edi tion, already well tested. It will be found useful even by those who are already familiar with musical litera ture. . , The thirty diapers of this book which, by the way, belongs to Dlt- son's well known "Music Students Library" give in concise language and with sufficient illustration the es sential facts about rythm, melody, time, scales, accents, embellishments, musical form, musical instruments ancient and modern, and everything else that is essential. .-An .appendix of noted names In music gives the names of nearly six hundred compos ers, performers and musical critics. Our Plymouth Forefathers; the Real Founders of Our Republic, by Charles Stedman Hanks. Cloth, 12mo. 339 pages. ' Numerous illus trations. Dana Estes & Co., Bos- In spite of the raw provincialism of the subtitle and the corresponding quality of certain passages1 in the book, the writer's account of the Pil grim Fathers is worth reading, even where the worship of these heroic colonists is not an article of faith. Mr. Hanks has given us a careful and detailed account of the Plymouth Pil grims, and he also does Justice to their less liberal and more compla cent neighbors, the saints of Massa chusetts Bay. The "real founders of our repub lic" as set forth In the subtitle, is rather more than Mr. Hanks has proved. He has emphasized the May flower compact as the beginning of self-government, and the possession of New England as a decisive step which forestalled the French and opened a way for the Puritan exodus. He says moreover that the first trial by jury took place in the Plymouth colony in 1U23 and that the first ex ecutive council "in the United States" was formed in Plymouth. Considering the fact that Virginia has claimed the honor of the first jury trial, that the House of Bur gesses was formed in 1619, a year be fore the landing of the Pilgrims, and that the Virginia constitution of 1621 provided for an executive council. Mr. Hanks ought to have stated both sides of the caRe, but bis references to Virginia are incidental and almost Invisible. The question of priority is less important than a certalnilasa of popular historians have made it, but when it Is brought up at all, W4 are certainly entitled to careful state ments and sufficient proofs. Like the gentleman from Missouri, we prefer to be shown. The Trade in Names. The' trial of Broughton Branden burg calls to mind a fault of publish ers and a weakness of the reading public. We do not mean to express any opinion as to the guilt or Inno cence of the accused In this case, tnt If Brandenburg forged Mr. Cleve land's name to' the letters which in volved him in this prosecution, he did It Cither because he could not NEW BOOKS. . ---. PRESS COMMENT . ,. ..-' 'sell the article without it or without It could not get a good price for It. The merit of the article was not affected by the name signed to it, but its value was little if at all affected by anything else. No man is fit to be a voter at all who unhesitatingly accepts another man's opinions. Every one who really desires to act Intelll-' gently will give attention to the rea sons assigned for pursuing a given course, but the force of the reason ing should not be at all affected by the personality of the reasons. Of course, in every country there .are leaders iu different lines of thought, but no man of mental self-respect ac knowledges authorities in thought. Every man should reason for him self. The New York Times bought this article because it was believed tuat Mr. Cleveland had signed it. If with out reason it merely expressed a pref erence for one candidate over an other, the expression should not have affected the decision of any reader. If it gave reasons, the reasons should have stood on their own merit, and should have been weighed without any consideration of the name signed. It is regretable that publications buy names rather than stories or contributions. A well advertised man can sell anything. An unknown man cannot find a publisher unless he offers something as good as one of the best authors writes once in a lifetime. David Harum was rejected by all the leading magazines, though it was superior to anything that any of them had published In ten years. If we mistake not-Elbert. Hubbard failed to find a publisher for what he-wrote, anil has since amassed a fortune by publishing his own writ ings that are Infinitely superior to anything accepted by the men who rejected them. This is not entirely the fault of the publishers. The proprietor of a dry goods store and of a magazine have a common purpose. The prime motive of each Is a desire to make money. Men buy magazines that ad vertise famous names, just as they trade with merchants who make the best display of their goods. A mag azine Is as purely a commercial un dertaking as a dry goods store. We doubt, however, whether this purchase of names rather '-.than thought or literature is the best pol icy in the long run. We believe if a publication woul dmake excellence its only object, while it would lag for a time behind its competitors that paraded well advertised names. It would ultimately excel them, even as a money maker, Pepph; would learn where to go for stories worth read ing or thoughts worth considering, and a publication always giving such literature and only such literature would In time establish Itself on a financial basis that would prove un shakuble. Florida Times-Union. The gross conduct of Mrs. Howard Gould, as it has been portrayed in her suit for divorce now pending is almost unbelievable. If she is guilty of a small part of the transgressions of the laws of decency charged to her and sustained by witnesses, the Injur ed husband forfeits a right to sym pathy for having delayed divorce proceedings himself. The Charlotte Chronicle in referring to this case says: ' . "The outside world has been given some entertaining glances Into the life of the altra-rich through the evi dence brought out in court In the Gould divorce case. The bacchana lian orgies of ancient times were tame affairs compared to the carous als that have been going on in the Gould castle over which the eloquent ly profane madame had the honor or presiding. It is a commentary oh the society of the age that people of this kind can buy their way into It, ye? society is full of people of the same sort as this Mrs. Gould, who was moved to hide her face In her hands as witnesses told of her life of pro fligacy and debauchery. It opens its doors to whoever may come with gol den hands, however barren of morals or devoid of character, and that such is the fact is to the shame of society as It exists today." Salisbury Post.
