Then, too, the space on up by adverth left us only shout f the space required for local nutter. county and peers] news. ' For some time post we have been quietly rushing mtions to efl'cot a com ohsnge in the make-up sud gettin out of the pspev. and to this end. it couple of wee ago, we purchased one of the end most com- plete Wsrgddlc presses mule. nnsl My we hsvs the proud sstlsfsetiou of issuing the first number of the Reporter printed wholly in this odes on our new press. opersted by stesni. The shove cut gives a very fair representation of our new Wharfcdslo press, which weighs in the neighborhood of four tons. While this press was being set up, many of those who drfpped into the office shook their heads dubiously when told that we expected to run it with our little' Acme cbul oil engine (s correct cut of which appears beside the press), they deeming it an impossibility for so small an engine to have sutlicient motive power to run so ponderous a. machine. When all was in readiness and the belt nttncheil it was surprising to we with what case it handled the whole mess of bed, cylinder, cams and slides. In passing, we might mention that our Acme coal engine (manufactured by John Gillies &. (30., Carleton Place, Ont.) has been in constant use in this oflice for over six years and today runs us smoothly and noiselessly as the day it was started, and at ll. cost of less than fifty cents a your for repairs. From the above out those who have never seen one can form some idea of the engine and the immenm power it exerts according to its size and weight. Two men con netsin lift the whole boiler, engine and attachments, the boiler holding loss than three pails of water when running. But the great desic'crntum with the little Acme is the low cost of running. After slx yours trial we are certnln that 800. worth of fuel oil will furnish motive power sufficient to run any ordinary press for o period of nine hours. A few words to our patrous and subscribers may not be out of place just at this time. In order to make our present change we have exponde upwards Of $1,000 cash. We have done 5;!) fooling Satisfied that those who are ndebted to us, either for job work or subscription, would upproolute our efforts to give them one of the best looul papers in Eastern Ontario, as well as to turn out n superior quality of job work, and would promptly settle their indebtedness as well as speak it good word for the Reporter oilieo. thereby sustaining us in cm- undemfl‘ing. Since we opened it job office and commenced the publication of the Reporter we hove met with runny cheering words of commendation as well as practical proof of appreciation: for which we are truly grateful, and in future we purpose devoting our energies to retain the good opinion of all our friends and patrons.
