The Inside of 1t.
The Standards home was erected
originally to serve the purposes of
a printing office. The building occu-
pies one of the most available
sites in the city of Anaconda and is
completely equipped in all that pertains
to ample light and good air. The sew
eral departments are conveniently ar
ranged, the accommodations for each
department are spacious. and the en-
tire establishment is as coy and con-
venient as any newspaper could ask
for. The press room OF the Standard
is one of it's most interesting sections.
Attached to it is the stereotyping de-
partment which has been in daily ope-
ration since the Standard was about
two years old. The Hoe press used in
this office is by odds the swiftest and
the most complete printing press to be
found anywhere in this part of the
world. Its remarkable capacity has
often been tested. and the rapid ope-
ration of the machine in turning out a
completed paper is the admiration of
all who have ever watched the process.
During several years of constant use,
the office has not been delayed Is min
utes in it's daily work as the result of
any failure or fault of the press. Elec-
trio power is applied everywhere in the
Standard office, under the excellent
system which is afforded in the city Of
Anaconda.
