Ut IS A YEAR TODAY.

With this issue ends the first year of our
editorial experience. 1t seems very short
year for we have been in hurry all the
time. 1t has been the hardest years work
we ever did. Many and many time we
have felt like resigning the position and re-
turning to the "stick and rule" and we
would have done so only that we hated to
acknowledge ourself incapable of contin-
uOuS effort. We do not know whether we
have kept the paper up to the mark at
which it stood when it came into our hands,
but we do know that we have not spared
Ourself in the. effort to hold it up. What
ever merit the paper has is due in great
part to its contributors and the boys who
have set the type, read proofs and done all
in their power to assist. We have exper-
fenced many perplexities and vexations due.
principally, to our own lack of sagacity;
but on the whole it has been profitable
fellow prisoners have occasionally reminded
us that we are ''chump" (penitentiary for
a smart fool) sucker" (toady, )etc., ETC.,
but this has been well offset by the many
kindly compliments and encouraging words
from others OF the boys. If we had made
a paper that pleased all hands we would
have accomplished more than was aimed at
or desired. Mistakes we have certainly
made, but we can truthfully say that we
fell into them through ignorance or lack of
foresight and not through an evil spirit.
The press and the reading public generally
have been universally liberal in judgment
and patronage. and it gives us the truest
happiness to be able to say that not one I'M
favorable comment has come to our ears
from the outside world. We did our best
during the year gone by; we will do the
same during the coming year. which we will
begin by asking your assistance, without
which we could accomplish little.

PREJUDICE, AND NOT REASON,
OBJECTS.

1t is well known that there are persons
who believe that Imprisonment with hard
labor is not sufficient punishment for per
sons convicted OF crimes. They would
have the prison made place of terror. the
very thought OF which would fill men with
dread; they would have an ineffaceble
brand placed upon the exconvict that
would cause him to be driven out of the
ranks of responsibility to consOrt with the
lowest on earth; they would ostracize his
family and relatives; they would degrade
him to the depths of human degradation,
and, not Intentionally, but necessarily,
make him a helpless prey to that con-
temptible class who have nothing good in
themselves to boast of and can claim no
superiority except by comparing themselves
with those who have been only less fortu-
nate in not escaping the consequences of
their criminal acts. Of course they will
not admit that they wish such consequences
to follow imprisonment; but such was the
result in the days when their theory of i'm
priSonment was IN popular practice. They
do not profit by the experience of the past;
they let prejudice override reason. and they
oppose every effort looking toward change
of old systems. They predict an increase
in crime and the eventual decentralization of

One of our local papers is considerably
wOrkedup over the fact of us having had
a pretty good time Christmas day. We are
sorry that our neighbor begrudges us our
little relaxation from the grinding monotony
of prison life. 1t is true that we had bet
ter dinner and better entertainment on that
day than many worthy poor people out
side of prison; but we venture to say there
was not man in this prison that day but
received for the liberty and humble fare of
the poorest man in Saltwater; nor do we be-
lieve there was man in Saltwater who
would have preferred to be one of us. even
were there no disgrace to follow.

TO THE PUBLIC.

THE PRISON MIRROR is a weekly paper pub
lished in the Minnesota state prison. All matter
published in its columns is contributed by the
inmates. except that properly credited. Its sup
port must come from the outside every inmate
is given a paper without cost. 1t is published in
the interest of the prison library and after paying
for the printing outfit, contributed $3.50 to the
library fund the first year. Its objects are to en-
courage individual intellectual effort, provide a
healthy journal for the inmates of this and other
prisons, and. above all, to acquaint the outside
world with the needs of the prison by rejecting
its inner life and thus aid the cause of moral ad-
vancement and prison reform.

A mother took her twelve-ye old son be-
fore the court in st. Paul the other day and
requested the Judge to send him to the re-
form school. She said he was all awfully
tough character. The judge thought that
five days in Jail would be an adequate
measure of justice for one so young AS
the mother left the court room the con-
demned culprit broke down and wept and
cried 'Oh, mama, mama! want to go to
mama" She returned and accompanied the
officers to the Jail with her ''incorrigible''
son. 1t is said that a sign of tear gilt
tered in her eye and her lips trembled as
she hurried away from the cries of her i'm
prisoned offspring. 1t is safe to say the boy
will be better treated III Jail than he had
been at home and will not act the calf the
next time he is presented at court.
