ADVICE HANDED TO EDITORS
Extracts SFrom a SatiricaI Pamphlet
Published in England
in 1871.

"Advice to Editors" an anonymous
pamphlet, rich in satire, has come into
HE hands of correspondent. 1t was
published at London in 1871, and
throws light on the Journalistic meth
ods of the time. "The reporting OF
parliamentary debates" says the au'
thor, sis at best bore. Inc
easiest way / can advise is to go 10
the house for half an hour, and from
thence adjourn to the smoking ROOM
where from among the other reporters
you can pick up the names OF speak
ers, and perhaps some quotation OF
other palpable point in their speeches.
With such assistance you can easily
furnish a debate, especially II YOU
know anything of the subject; anu IL
MANY instances you have by this rul0
published speeches better than tnoSo
that were delivered"
The danger of overstepping tn0
mark is made clear in another para
graph: "Whatever may be your Tar
ents, your ingenuity and your prac'ico'
never attempt to fabricate the report
of a debate altogether in your stuIy'

brated reporters, from neglect y.

plans of the enemy! The plans that
neither Bouchard's saturnine cunning,
nor brides, nor spies could ascertain!
1t was like the bugle-call to the hunter.

Marta gasped half inarticulately.
Right? Yes, to hasten the newt

if about to break away unanimously,
but paused, swaying unsteadily, and
passed her hand across her eyes.

first line of defense tonight" he ex-
claimed, his supreme thought leaping
into words.
"And you would want the informa-

Eyes, tonight"
Marta brought her hands together

for minute over the tea-table When
she looked up her eyes we're calm.

Without further formality she start

until she was out of sight. Then he
stood for a time getting grip on his
own emotions before he went into the
house.

directly she was out of sight of the
veranda. All the thinking she had
done that afternoon had been in pic

groan, or some smile went with every
picture.
The sitting-room Of the tower was
empty to other eyes but not to hers.
The lantern was in the corner at hand.
After her Fastening steps had carried
her along the tunnel to the telephone,
she set down the lantern and pressed
the spring that opened the panel door.
Another moment and she would be en-

drew back convulsively and her hands
flew to her face; she was rocking

the lantern.

mask from subconscious mind. reveal

and shows her a telephone which Feller
has concealed in secret passage under
the tower for use to benefit the Browns
in war emergencies. Lanstron declares

the trouble, and the Brown defenses. Par
tow reveals his plans to Lanstron. the
Gray army crosses the border line and at
tacks. The Browns check them. Artll-

leaps. "Eh?" he chuckled significantly,
finger poised.
LET them up the Bordir road and
on to redoubts 36 and 81, you mean?"
asked Lanstron.
you have it! The position looks
important, but so well do we com
mand it that it Is not really vital. Yes,
the Bordir road is her bait for Wester-
ling!" Partow waved his hand as If
the affair we're settled.
But" interjected Lanstron, 1--WE
have also to decide on the point of the
main defense which she is to make
Westerling think is weak"
"Hm-m!" grumbled Partow. "That
is not necessary to start with. We can
give that to her later over the tele-
phone, can't we, eh?"
"She asked for it now"
'Why?" demanded Partow with one
of his shrewd, piercing looks.
"She did not say, but l can guess, :"
explained Lanstron. "She must put all
Westerling all she knows at once If
she tells him piecemeal it might lead
to the supposition that she still had
some means of communication with
the Browns"
"Of course, of counsel" Partow spat-

on the map. CAS- / decided the first
time l met her, she has a head, and
when woman has head for that
sort of thing there is no beating her.

tow was on his feet. He had reached
across the table and seized Lanstron's
shoulders in a powerful If flesh-pad-
ded grip. Then he turned Lanstron
around toward the door Of his bed

of victory we have is holding the wire

behemoth, who can kneel as gracefully

knees at her feet, kissing her hands

mercy, to keep from breaking into

Back at the telephone, Lanstron. in
the tervor of the cheer and the enthu-
siasm that had transported his chief,
gave Marta Partow's message.

of victory!"

LICENSE TEACHER AGENCIES.

The Fargo city commission met in
regular session this morning. 4 pc
tition was received for d new water
main and sewer on Tenth street south
between Twelfth and Thirteenth ave-
nues. .
The matter was referred to Com
missioner Blakemore to investigate If
the need of a sewer in that locality
was sufficiently pressing for its in
fstallation at this time or whether the
present water mains were low enough
to warrant a sewer put in there.
The question Of the Great North
ern grading on certain street cross
ings at track intersections was again
brought up and discussed, though no
action was taken.
w. b. Sherman appeared before the
commission in behalf of the employ
ment agencies of the city, which are
| a city license ordinance, asking for
the licensing of teachers agencies in
the city in like manner.
There are two teachers agencies To-
Icated in this city, one conducted by
A. A. Love. and another by the North
ern School Supply Co. Mr.. Sherman
| would have both licensed the same as
any other employment agency in the
city. f.
