What the Advocate Says.

The ed tor of the PRISON MIRROR, an interest
ing little paper printed in the Saltwater Minnesota
states prison-has been pardoned out by Gov.
MoGill. after nearly three years Imprisonment.
We hope some among the inmates is compe-
tent will step into Mr.. Mirck's place. The paper.
written and printed by the supposed criminals of
Minnesota lends an interest to the paper hard to
describe One thing sure. the men from whom
emanate such good thoughts are contained in
many of the articles that find their way weekly
into its columns, cannot come from men wholly
bad. NO doubt many among the number are pay
ing the hard penalty of having made the first m IS
take in life, rather of having been caught in
that mistake We doubt not among the number
are many whose whole lives have been better than
scores who have eluded detecton and are to-day
actual outlaws before God, if not before men. We
do not believe in making heroes of criminals.
neither do believe in making criminals of
heroes. The PRISON MIRROR is a paper that
the most moral need lot fear to have placed in
their homes.-Floyd county Qa.) Advocate.

PARIS, October ga banquet was
given at the Hotel Continental this even
ing to commemorate the dedication of
the statute of Liberty Enlightening the
World, which was given by the French
people to the United States. McLane,
the American Minister, and Goblet, the
Minister Of Foreign Affairs, were among
those present. The American Minister,
replying to Goblet's toast to his health,
said: 1.-THE joy that the Americans ex-
perienced in receiving the statue of Lib
erty was equal to the pleasure you expe-
rienced in offering it. Before giving the
emblem, you had given the thing itself.
All Of the great truths upon which mod
ern social order is based we're elaborated
and spread throughout the world by
French genius. We received them with
ardor and finished by developing them
If we have succeeded in reconciling the
liberty of each with the liberty of all,
we cannot forget that the germ came
from France. The modern world gravi-
tates toward the political orbit traced by
France and America. The symbol
which the statute OF Liberty represents
we have become in reality"
The speech was loudly applauded.
McLane offered toast in honor OF Presi-
dent Carnot.
Goblet in his speech said the day was
coming when under the Egis of the Re-
public, France would recover her ancient
splendor and when that time came she
would not forget her faithful friends,
among whom was America. France had
renounced the glory Of conquest, her
only desire was to live in peace and to
develop her resources. He expressed his
wishes for the constant prosperity Of the
United States and drank to the health of

children, were killed and eaten.
