U. s. Military feIearaph.

Lievt. Philip Reade, acting signal
officer, in charge of the Military Tele-
graph has issued some timely orders
to his operators along the line. These
show that Phil is in earnest and we
hope his boys will follow instructions
closely. We extract as follows on
press reports a
1t should be borne in mind that re-
ports to the San Francisco journals
cost the papers two or three cents per
word from San Diego north; hence
report from Arizona, etc., to be accep-
table, should be limited to the nara
tion of simple facts of events Of actual
general Importance. Many matters
may have local interest that are
worthless as neaUs at a distance Of 500
or 1000 miles. An event, insignifi-
cant of itself, may however become
important through the persons con-
nected Herewith. A fist fight be-
tween John Doe and Richard Roe
amounts to nothing abroad, but such
an affray between men widely known
is news. On the other hand, a great
event, earthquake, shipwreck, and
loss of life, invasion, Indian campaign,
great fire, etc., ETC., should not be
condensed. .1ere the public want the
details. In such case it is well first to
report the fact, stating that details
can be given. The operator should
bear in mind the leading features of
interest in The country. In Arizona,
for example, these may be generally
I,x ho If.,ic of
and Indians. Just now the mining
interests attract the attention OF the
reading public and these, therefore,
constitute your p incipal topic. Ari-
zona is Il new territory. Whatever
concerns its development is interest
ing, and makes good news. Items of
agriculture, irrigating enterprises, set
tlement, mills, building Of towns,
manufactures and other industries are
all acceptable. Aim at condensation.
State the simple facts in as few words
as possible, in cases, as before
mentioned, of q great event, "sensa-
ton" The newspaper will "fill out"'
the item to suit itself. 1t is good
practice to write the dispatch and
then strike out the superf1uous words.
Such words as "of," "and,n "the,"
making connection, may generally be
omitted, being only occasionally nec-
essary to convey the sense. When
items are collated from the columns of
newspaper, an occasional courteous
acknowledgement to the effect that
the Citizen, or the Miner. or the Senti
mel states, etc., is admissible. This
special mention is justly due the pa
per, and makes the favor reciprocal.
Appropriate headings, in the sequence
of their relative Importance for press
items, may be indicated thus: l. Min
ing News-Discoveries, Noted Mines,
Prospecting, General Notes, etc. 2.
Indian News Scouts, Reservation
Items, 8. Military Items-General
Orders, (condensed) Movements of

culture, Irrigation, Industries, etc. 5.

tance. 7. Practice Condensation
