r
Story of Milwaukee
(Continued from page one)
The Pugct Sound linos were not built
im a day nor a year. Long years
pnBsed while the master minds were
working out the details and the cross
ing of the Missouri on the splendid
steel bridge at Mobridge was not un
dertaken until all the details had been
tarefully worked out. This bridge
lii arks the connecting link between the
East and . the "West, tho dividing line
between the older company's lines and
those of the extension. While the par
ent system has recently taken over tho
whole western extension, the bridge
still marks the dividing line between
the old and the new and for years to
come will designate the link bringing
two great railroads together. The line
from Mobridge was planned from the
very start to be built upon standard
lines with the least possible bar to effi
cient handling of freight and passenger
traffic. Close attention was given to
agricultural and general industrial pos
sibilities with the result that the line
has been constructed through a wealthy
and scenically beautiful region with a
"back country" of undeveloped re
sources that will take years to develop
but which will forever be tributary to
the main line. At Roundup a great
coal mine was opened and the fuel sup
ply was assured. In Montana the route
was selected through the far-famed
Judith basin and the valleys of the
Yellowstone, Musselshell, Smith River,
Gallatin, Deer Lodge, Missoula, Black
foot. In Washington the line traverses

Less than one year's work usually tells the story of the difference in construction
between a high-grade, high-priced and high-powered car, and those built to sell at
a low first cost. The strain of gear shifting, the jar of road shocks, and the stress
of brake work begin- to tell on cheap cars. The man who wants a thoroughly depend
able car at a moderate price, the very "best buy" is a high-grade used car that has
been rebuilt and made practically as good as new.

stories. Mot only are the papers hn
dioiippcd .In this dirsotiou, but tele
graph and toU'phono facilities aro fre
quently limited. This state of nffairs
oftou prevents tho correspondent from
goUiug a good story to hla paper, al
though he may have nil the fncts In his
possession. All of these circumstance
nro known, however, atul recognised
by tho luauajfiug editors ami "go" as
excuses for what seemed negligence at
the time.
The country correspondent is not
supposed to sloop. Technically he Is
always with his ear to the telephone
taking orders by " long-distance" or
clue waiting for tho messenger boy
with his yellow envelope and signa
ture book. In his book of instructions
the correspondent is given emphatic
orders to be in touch with the tele
phone or telegraph at all hours of the
day and niuht, so that he can be given
an assignment with as little delny, al
most, as a staff man In the homo of
fice. Not only must ho be on the alert
after vents that will read well in the
columns 'of the city papers, but also
must he bo prepared to respond
immediately to an order to secure
an interview with some "loading
citizen" or investigate some report
which may havo reached tho managing
editor, lie may be required to hire an
automobile and race 'cross country in
pursuit of some clew or he may be re
quired to secure photographs of pcr
sons who may fenture among "the
killed" or be the principals in some
crime or scandal. There is no time
given him to ask for explanations, in
structions, or just what he is supposed
to get. There is no time for question
ing concerning possible expense, loss
of sleep or meals. The live correspond
ent, however, never thinks of those
things. He promptly forgets his fam
ily and his body and obeys ordors like
the faithful servant he is. That he
must get what he is told to, and that
delay will not be tolerated, is the one
principle under which the correspond
ent works. Dne consideration of espe
cially trying circumstances or obsta
cles is made by the man at the city
desk, it is true, but the circumstances
must be very trying and the obstacles
almost insurmountable. The country
correspondent does not expect quarter,
neither does ho give it. The story hi
paper wants is the one that his paper
gets, no matter whom it may concern
or what interests may be involved.
First and foremost, the correspond
ent must be reliable. Exaggeration,
falsification or, worst of all, pure
"faking" will not be tolerated, and
tho guilty correspondent is "fired"
immediately his faults are found out.
There is always some reader or sub
scriber of the city papers who sends an
indignant letter exposing the corre
spondent and his questionable story. A
sharp reprimand usually comes before
dismissal. It behooves the correspond
ent, therefore, to obey his instructions
to the letter. Far better it is for him
to let his paper get "scooped" than to
wire a libelous articlo or a story that
may call fur a retraction in the next
issue. Next to reliability comes alert
ness. The correspondent must have a
"never-asleep habit." To be success
ful he must be in touch with everyone
in his county who is situated at a foun
tain head of news. He must have on
his staff the police, tho sheriff's of
fice, telephone and telegraph operators

in fact, any and everybody who may
possibly hoar of a good now Item.
Thus it will be seen that the corre
spondent must be a diplomat and
"stand In" with all sorts of people,
lie imist bo a porsou of considerable
magnetism to keep his hold on his corps
of volunteer assistants, fur ho cannot
afford to pay them for their trouble In
hi behalf. The correspondent with the
most friends is tho one to whom tho
maunging editor many miles away must
often write letters of commendation.
The managing editor does not, know
how his correspondent get hi stories.
Hq doesn't care. He knows that tho
paper is being well served, and that's
enough to know.
The correspondent's work Is gov
erned by a code of rules to which ho
1 supposed to adhere strictly. When
a story develops he Is required to
"query" or "schedule" his paper, giv
ing briefly the nature of the news and
the number of words iu his judgment
necessary to tell It properly. For in
stance, he will prepare a message
something like this:
"Collision on O. & N. 10 killed, 25
injured; 500. SMITH."
If ho 1ms a less Important story his
"query" will read like this:
"John Jones, prominent farmer,
commits suicide while insane; 100.
"SMITH."
The editor who handles tho message
will order the story at once, providing
he wants it. If he orders it ho will
send a message something like this:
"Rush suicide," or ".Send wreck
story." He may enlarge or cut down
the number of words suggested by tho
correspondent. Ho may order only 20
words on tho wreck, or he may ask for
1000. Editors gauge the orders some
times upon their personal view of the
human interest attached to the story,
the policy of their paper and the pres
sure of space. All these things must
be considered in handling the hun
dreds of queries that pour into the of
fice of the metropolitan paper day
after day. It takes genius to pick the
wheat from the chaff, to secure every
thing of interest and importance and
still avoid printing libelous matter and
spending money for worthless mes
sages. Tho principal source of woe to the
country correspondent lies in the prone
ness of the managing editor to detail
a staff of men to handle what big sto
ries come up and thus deprive the cor
respondent of a chance to fatten hi
"string." In cases of important polit
ical gatherings, conventions or sensa
tional or mysterious crimes the editor
may prefer an original and extensive
story, one different from that sent any
other paper, and ho sends a man who is
familiar with tho stylo and policy of
tho paper, and who will turn out a
story in accordance with the ideas pop
ular to thnt particular publication.
When such assignments nro made the
correspondent usually gets disgusted
with his job and rebels at whnt he con
siders unfair treatment. He is called
upon to assist the staff man in every
possible way as a ruleK it is the corre
spondent who gets the story and the
staff man who writes it up. The re
ward of the correspondent is usually a
cigar or a drink, whilo he loses out on
the anticipated fattening of his
"string" to the extent of a column or
more. It might bo explained that
"string" is a well known newspaper
term for tho aggregate of clippings of
stories sent by tho correspondent or
space writer to his paper. These clip
pings aro saved day by day, and at
the end of each month are pasted to
gether and marked off by the column,
remuneration being made at so much
per column.
thus be ablo to set tho station clocks
more accurately than before. Tho
distance from I'aris is about 05 miles
so that the time Bigrials aro well

tend the use of the wireless method
in the future. A station which is
so equipped can also send tho time

other railroad stations.
