AT last the Iowa republicans have
thrown overheard the Jonah of prohibit
ton. Al the recent state convention an
anti-prohlb was chosen permanent chair
man and a local-option man was nomi~
mated for governor. A resolution was
passed that loyalty to prohibition should
no longer be test of republicanism in
Iowa. In this connection the following
sound advice to the Iowa republicans
published some weeks ago in the st.
Louis Democrat, is very interesting
reading;
"The Iowa republicans should make no
further alliance with the prohibitionists
of that state. By so doing in the past
Iowa has been shorn of its republican
strength. The party, as political organ
ization, owes nothing to the prohibition
lists. They have betrayed it, beyond
question, and given the power of govern
ment to another organization which has
been the persistent enemy of republican,
ism. The declaration of the prohibition
party has included, or attempted to in
clude, the whole political situation in
Iowa, at what cost to the republicans has
been plainly seen. Kansas, North Da.
kota and other states show the same
course of political transformation. The
republican party deserves its defeat wher'
ever it has truckled to prohibition. The
theory IS one unnatural and forced, and
its permanent enforcement is an impossi'
bility in union of free and independent
states, populated by citizens of divcrglng
views and coBtrary opinions on this ques-
tion of expediency IN the regulation OF
public morals. Wherever the republican
party leaders consent to harbor prollbi'
tion, there the determined army of lnde'
pendent voters get In array to oppose the
enforcement of the law and to compass
the defeat of the party upholding it. II
the republicans continue to adhere to the
prohibition Sallacy in Iowa or In othel
states, it will only show the more clearly
the inherent and unfortunate weakness o.
the organization"

A Wonderful Age.

This is wonderful age, an epoch in
the history of the world made resplen-
dent by the triumphs of peace. Never
before were the promises of the future
more flattering. Seldom has the world
been made happy with such prosperity.
This long peace that has blessed the
world with enlightenment has prompted
geniuses to explore the hidden depths
of science and mechanical arts. They
have made the world, by their valuable
discoveries, more agreeable place of
habitation, and prolonged our time of
enjoying it. The United States has
gathered the works of genius together
and becomes the host Of all the world;
bidding all welcome to this crowning
triumph of wonderful age-the
Worlds Fair. Although the leading
nations support great armies, they have
lost the crimson ambition of martial
valor, and deserted the temple of Mars
to pay homage to the goddess of Peace.
They have come with their works of
art, their creations of science and their
monuments of industry, to contest for
the laurels of peace. All this speaks of
elevation; it points the way to the long
delayed millennium, and gives promise
OF future peace, prosperity and wealth.

adds simply another inducement for
entering it; a person will have more
confidence in himself and his future
career, when he is conscious of the fact,
that he is not hOpelessly behind the
times; and that his confreres are of his
own age, and like himself students of
the science, doing their best and recog
nizing that they are all, to greater or
less extent, novices. We are fortunate
ly in the West, and the progressive
energy of the people of this section
makes the demand for able and eX-
perienced electricians greater than the
supply. In all modern conveniences
and in the demand for the same the
West is far ahead of the East, and thus
future field of employment is directly
at our doors. 1t simply requires pluck,
enterprise and thrift, the elements that
make up the American character.
Why not at least give this field trial ?

Choosing q Profession.

Among the reiterated statements ap-
pearing from time to time to the effect
that the professions are Overcrowded,
there is one that stands conspicuous by
it's absence, and that is the electrical.
Some may object and call it a science, re-
quiring years of study and application;
while this is, no doubt, true in the sense
of experiment and investigation, still in
its commercial aspects it may be also
considereda a profession or trade Among
all the fields of occupation that are
open, there is none that is so inviting
and fascinating as that of electricity.
When we consider that comparatively
it is still in it's infancy, and how wonder
fully it has grown and developed in the
past ten years; and reflect on the con-
Stant increase and demand for its ap-
pllcatiOn to the various industrial en-
terprises, we cannot but realize that it
is the future field of employment of
thousands. The majority of the men
employed therein, and even those Oc-
cupying the most responsible positions,
are young men from 25 to 35 years of
age; the larger proportion of them have
started at the lowest round of the lad
der, probably as assistants to men
stringing wires, and by study, in
quiry, and observation, have worked
themselves up to the top. In no other
profession or trade is the youthfulness
of the men engaged therein so notable
as in this one. This very youthfulness
The prison mirror. [volume] (Stillwater, Minn.) 1887-1894, 1893-06-01

1t seems strange, at times to one
prisoner here, for instance e-who, when
he is out in the world, has his liberty
and is considered an all-rOund good fell
low generally, how many friends he may
have, how warm-hearted and sympa-
thetic they are, and how willing they
are to do him favor when an OppOr-
tunity is at hand. But, alas! when he
gets into trouble, when the sky is OBJ
scured by dark and gloomy clouds,
when his liberty is taken away and he
can no longer even enjoy the presence
and realize the affection and love of his
mother, his father, or, what is still
more dear to him, his wife and children
it is then he is brought face to face
with the most melancholy thoughts,
the most extreme heartaches that he
ever encountered in his weary travels
through life before. There are many
inside these majestic prison walls who
to-day are pining for loved ones at
hOme-whO shed many silent tears as
they wear away the snail-like hours.
No one can thoroughly realize the need
of liberty until he (Or she) is deprived
of it for time. And when "letter day"
passes and no cheering, comforting
word is received from the loved ones at
home, the hearts wound is torn open
afresh and sleepless nights rise up be-
fore one like spectre of sorrow, and
one continues to gaze into vacancy and
suffer until the letter is received.

A BUNDLE OF LETTERS.

Thou Bundle of Letters, before me lying,
What strange presentmentS from thee leave,
And soft amid our heart t-StringS plying,
With gentle touches, cheer or grieve.
Aroused by thee, some thoughts so chill,
Make war with love, disturbing ease,
And court command of Peace Be STILL"
That leveled once the troubled seas.
And, numerous tears of joy, unchecked,
That blur the eye, thee to peruSe,
Are born as mOOnlight'S rays reflect,
In evening, from the sun of Muse.
Thus, thoughts conflicting thou dOst bring
Of past events we much regret,
And fain from Times strong arm would wiring,
With treacherOuS memory ease forget.
These thought-wave lashing with their neighbor
Resemble stubborn wills, unknd,
When they against loves counsel labor
And coils of diScOrd swift unwind.
In future let us close pursue
Those welltaught lessons of old days;
Our stubborn natures calm subdue,
Till they forget their sinful ways.
Thus turning from their wayward steps,
AS, round ObStructing mountain, flows
The stream of Patience, searching depths
Anew, let hearts forget their woes.
