Is It Impracticable?

"Better endure the ills we have than fly
to those we know not of may be very
good phrase for serfs to use, but when
pretending free people apply it to the
economic conditions of a democratic
government it is singularly out of place.
1t struck me so when [ found it in a
late MIRROR applied to the subject of
government ownership of the telegraph
service; and it is to make remark or
two as to the objections filed that I
take up my pencil.
First, is there any danger to be antici-
pated that such step would be liable
to destroy free press?
Second, is there free press, and if so
is it averSe to the measure?
Third, is the naturalization of the
telegraph service beneficient to the
masses or not?
To answer the first question it is but
necessary to point to despOtic Russia,
democratic Germany, and republican
France, and score or more of the other
countries which have had and still have
that dreaded system in vogue, and from
none of these have we ever heard that
to government ownership of the tele-
graph service was chargeable any cur
tailment of the liberty of the press.
AS to the SecOnd-there is free press
in the United States and that part of it
that is honest enough, and courageous
enough to stand for the veal of the
country and the nation, does not antici-
pate any danger from that source, but
clamors for it's consumatiOn.
Lastly-it is beneficial to the masses.
Russia, Germany, France, Switzerland
and Australia derive vast revenue
from it, which would otherwise go to
the monopolists. Australia has nation
allied all mOnOpOlizable industries in
her colonies, and as result her people
are almost entirely exempt from taxa
ton and are the most free and pros
porous on the face of the earth. And
has not the Australian government,
hardly emancipated, it may be said,
from the chains of the most abject
slavery, risen so high that now all can
be safely entrusted to her? And have
the descendants of the Puritans fallen
so low that nothing can be entrusted to
their government without being tainted
with corruption? Al.

Miscellaneous Musings.

The rule exacting silence is very hard
even on those of us who only speak our
language, but think of what those must
suffer who would talk in half dozen
it the regulations permitted it, and i'm
agine, too, what those would suffer who
should come within range of such lin
guistic battery.
The man who is thinking all the time
of schemes for making 100000, as soon
as he regains liberty, will only give time
to whitewash his cell ere he will be back
again.
If we haven't learnt to have charity
for fallen brother as result of our
confinement here we are probably de-
serving of but little sympathy ourselves.
Some day, perhaps, those of the
younger members who would prefer
not to acquire the disgusting, dyspeptic
producing, expensive and vulgar habit
of tobacco chewing will be allowed
some other privilege in place of the
present red ticket, say dollar for a
paper or magazine.
Crime will never sensibly diminish
as long as so many are financially bene-
fitted, and interested in it's continuance.
Striped goods, we understand are 60
ing out of fashion this winter. TO wear
one will be the worst of uniform, and
anyone SO doing will be OStraciSed by
the BON tom of this community.

Mr.. Joseph Stilkey, of prison fame, handed
us the other day a newspaper which he prizes
very highly. About twenty years ago an enter
prising firm in Chicago conceived the idea of adj
vertising their goods in a novel way, and with
this view had prepared, at an enormous expense,
electrotype plates of the issue No. 10 of the
Boston Gazette printed March 12 177O. Under
this date is given an interesting and complete
account of the killing of four of the citizens of
Boston by the British troops. Guard Stilkey will
not part with the paper for love or money.
