The mission of a newspaper is
to furnish the news, It is blam-
ed for giving publicity to sensa-
tional stories but the paper is not
responsible for these things hap
pening. It records events just
as they happen, giving the his
tory. Oftentimes the news is
not pleasant. People who are
most closely connected get angry
because of the publicity. They
are as much ashamed of the deed
as they are Of the circulation of
the facts after the deed has been
committed. Hardly a day pass
es that some one is not at the
office Of the daily paper asking
that something be suppressed.
The life of the editor and report
er is not all roses. Buta duty
must be done, just as it is done
by policeman with a warrant
and sometimes the shafts being
directed against ones own
friends.

PLEAD GUILTY
HAMMOND Gets Fifteen Years
and Christie Seven Years
In the Pen.
Both rlen Put in a Plea of Guilty
to the Charge of Larceny
and Burglary.

Geo. T. Hammond and John
Christie, jr., whose trials were
held at Philipsburg, Mont, last
week for the hold-up of the North
Coast Limited passenger train
on the Northern Pacific at Bears
mouth, Mont, last June, put in a
plea of guilty to the charge of
grand larceny and burglary.
Hammond was sentenced for Is
years and Christie for Z years,
There is but one conclusion to
be arrived at after seeing and
hearing this man Hammond talk
and that is that he is a criminal
of the deepest dye, and the soon
er men Of his stamp are placed
behind the bars, never to mingle
with his fellow beings, the better.
He has q very sharp, keen eye
and apparently would not fear
man nor the devil. It had been
the intention to try Hammond on
the charge of numbering Engin-
eer O'Neill, who was killed in the
hold-up at Bearsmouth twoyears
ago, but the evidence obtained up
to this time, was deemed INSULT
cient.

efficient briquet has been dis
covered.
A plant for the manufactur, Of
the new Ignite briquet will soon
be in operation at Seventh Ave.
North and Second Street with al
capacity of fifty tons a day. The
machine which will turn out the
briquets, was devised by William
de la Barre, the well known en-
gineer, who is interested with
General Washburn in the bri-
quetting progress. It's a sim
pie machine, considering the
length of time it took to hit upon
the idea for it, and therein lies
the secret of it's success.
The trouble with Ignite coal
for domestic purposes has been
that it has to be prepared in
cubes, or "briquets" for use~
The coal was first pulverized and
then some sticky stuff mixed
| with it so that it could be turned
out in the shape of small bricks.
There was no trouble in getting
adhesive materials, such as mo-
lasses, etc., but the expense of
such materials made their use
prohibitive. The great problem
was, therefore, to get cheap
binder.
Germany is the country where
Ignite coal briquets have attain
ed to perfection. and thither Mr..
de la Barre went in search of in
| formation. He told the German
manufacturers his business and
asked for pointers. They e~ade
his questions, gave him no salts
faction, and telegraphed des.
cription of him to the next town
where there was a briquetine
plant.
Everywhere he went he was
, regarded with suspicion until he
struck one little German who
heard his story. looked over him
and then went out of his plant
