THE MIRROR is a weekly paper published
in the Minnesota State Prison. 1t was founded
in 1887 by the prisoners and is edited and man
aged by them. Its objects are to be home
newspaper to encourage moral and intellectual
improvement among the prisoners to acquaint
the public with the true STATUS of the prisoner;
to disseminate pathological information and to aid
in dispellng that prejudice which has ever been
the bar sinister to fallen mans sef-redemptiOn.
The paper is entirely dependent on the public for
its financial support. If at any time there should
accrue a surplus of funds, the money would be
expended in the interests of the prison library.

instrument, which was executed Decem-
Der 81, 1886, is very brief and direct. He
bequeaths all his property, real and per-
sonal, to his wife, Esther A. HOrr. Mr..
HOrr owned large property interests in

WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 26.-Pres. Cleveland
has returned to Washington in a very
bad humOr. He is convinced that his
party is on the eve of one Of the worst
defeats it ever met, and, instead of recOg-
nizing that it is his politics that are to
blame, he persists in putting all the
blame upon those democrats in congress
who thwarted his policy upon several
notable occasions. No better demOnstra-
tiOn of egotism run mad was ever pre-
sented 70 the public than this state of
mind on the part Of Mr.. Cleveland. In
the opinion of many il there had been no
democrats in congress willing to
thwart Mr.. Cleveland's policies, anihila-
tion instead of crushing defeat would
have been the fate Of the democratic
party next month. Bad as the demo-
cratic record has been it would have
been worse if Mr.. Cleveland had been
allowed to have his way.
HOke Smith stands in need of a
little instruction in governmental
methods, particularly in those between
the military and civil branch. When lie
was notified that the incapable demo-
cratic officials in Indian territory were
unable to cope with the bands of law
breakers who are rObbing trains and
people and generally terrifying the
honest and peaceable citizens of the
territory he thought that all he had to
do to have the army Of the United States
used as police force was to notify the
war department. And it might have
happened so, for young Mr.. Doe, whose
hat band has been growing larger ever
since he was brought to Washington to
preside over the war department while
Dan Lamont does Mr.. Cleveland's 8
political errands, was acting secretary
when Mr.. Smiths communication was
received. He had good luck enough to
think that he had better refer the mat
ter to Gen. Schofeld before issuing any
orders. Gen. Scho6eld was cOnsiderate,
and merely endorsed on the papers the
suggestion that 1t would be we'll to in
quire into the legality Of the action
| proposed by Mr.. Smith.
The Republican Congressional Cam
paign committee is receiving a heavier
mail than 1t is sending out, and all the
news 1t Is getting Is good. 1t is now re-
garded as merely question Of being on
guard against democratic trickery to be
certain Of electing a majority in the
| next house, and the news this week indi-
Gates that the republicans will also
make gains enough In the senate to de-
prive the democrats Of control after the
fourth OF next March, IL they do moi
succeed In getting 1t themselves, which
is almost certain to be prevented by the
hold-Oyer pOpulist senator's.
| The New York compaign attracts more
interest in Washington than in any
other single state. This is nearly al
ways the case because Of the command
ing influence Of the state in national
politics and 1t Is intensified this year by
the personality Of the gubernatOrial
candidates and the peculiar circumstan
ces existing in New York city, There are
excellent reasons for the belief thai
