blades of grass-in fact all our vege-
t~ation-are perishing from lack OF
moisture. The Great Benificent Crea-
tor, as ii in authorization of ourneeds,
has placed q tremendous volume OF
water under us. No other country l
suppose has anything like it.
The Great Maker of all things gave
man a mind to think with, and ex-
poets him to use it. He has exercised
his thinking powers in life in many
ways to his great comfort and ad-
vantage. He has plowed the ground
and sown grains and grasses and
made an acre of land produce tenfold
more than nature had done before.
He has seen the beautiful streams of
water playing idly over the rocts,
and he has converted these streams
into mighty powers, making them
turn mills and grind the grain. BY
a system of engineering he has drain
ed swamps, and is today actually
making the grains of civilization
grow on the bottom of Iowa lake
beds.
Now, man is called upon to tax his
ingenuity still further to invent some
cheaper way than we now have to
bore down a thousand feet through
the crust OF the earth and reach a
great ocean of water that has been
pent up for ages, and which stands
ready to break through the first
crevice to reach the starved vegeta-
ton and thirsty animals just aboye
it, and to greet the farmer on his
water-wagon and invite him down on
the ground to take his hoe in hand
and direct the moving water in ditch
es along the rows of vegetables.
Danish prejudice to the winds and
fall into line and let us do something.
With water on our land it is worth
as much as Iowa land. Ours is a
quick soil. We lose no time from
rainy days. 1t will cost no more to
irrigate Dakota than it cost to drain
other states and clear the forests. |

been in penitentiaries or reformatories
This feeling can be overcome by closer
acquaintance with the work of prison
association and a stronger realization
OF mans responsibility to his fellow
mans welfare. The ex-convict, emery
ing from his prison, feels that all the
world is against him and there is no
place in the work a-day world for him.
Frlendless, with no word of human
sympathy, the chances are that he will
return to evil ways. But. if he is met
by friendly grasp of the hand, encour-
aging and helpful words, and an oppor-
tunity to support himself by honest
work, in eighty per cent of the cases
experience has shown that he will be-
come useful member Of society. More
especially effective is the work among
Juvenile offenders, let out of reforma-
tory. There is abundant hope for them
under the helpful care of prison asso-
citation.
The Hennepin county branch of the
Minnesota Prison Association deserves
the sympathy and support of every good
citizen. The work of redeeming men
and restoring them to society is grand
and productive one, and stimulative of
individual exertion in the highest
practical philanthropy Minneapolis

THE frankness of the Minnesota

ing just the cause of death, and / have
had more to think about in caring for
the living than thinking about the dead.
However, | am quite certain that she
is dead, and have certified to that fact
at least once before. She was patient

me authority whereof l speak, and pos
slbly that ought to be sufficient guar
antee that she is dead"

WHEN we picked up the special
Thanksgiving Issue" of the Hills Ores
cent and saw the unsightly non justified
lines on the editorial page our mind
was filled with sad forebodings for the
future of Editor Bailey Here, we
thought, is the case of a bright intel
lect wrecked by looking too often on
the decanter when it contains corn
juice, and it was with plying sigh
for our unfortunate brother that we be-
gan to read the paper Reading every
line in everyone of our five hundred
exchanges is a pleasure we never DENY
ourselves no matter how pressing other
duties may be, and weare glad we made
no exception to the rule in the present
instance, for on reading the paper we
found that we had been too hasty in
our surmises. Under the caption
''Shall We Justify?" was the following
clipping from Poper und Press and
Printers Ink in favor of the non-jus-
LITIGATION of lines in newspaper work:
"There is gain esthetically in the in
creased beauty of the page due to the
abolition of unequal spacing, the relief
that the eye finds in lines of unequal
length, and the greater ease with which
it passes from one line to another. and
that there is vast saving of time and
labor effected, both in the setting and
distribution of the type, and that the
system will increase the capacity of a
cOmpOsitor more than 5000 ems per
day"
The Crescent prints it's editorial page
in the style above alluded to and invites
comment. 1t is THE MIRRORS opinion
that the proposed innovation will never
become popular. We can see nothing
to commend except it be a small saving
of labor.

IN COMMENTING on what we recently
said OF the eagerness with which mid
die aged men and even those past the

the rudiments of an education. the
Mantorville Eapress gives the follow
ing sensible advice to boys and girls to
improve their opportunities by acquir-
ing an education that will enable them
to fill honorable and useful positions in
life:
"What lesson in the way of sugges-
ton. is in the above for the boys and
girls now enjoying all the freedom and
privileges of our schools. Those who
do not improve such opportunities, in
variably regret their folly in later life
not necessarily under the restraints of
prison life, as the men above alluded to,
but simply subject to the common. vet
none the less memorable, demands
and restraints of earning livelihood.
Verify, now is the day of salvation from
many unavailing regrets in the future,
if our young people only realized it.

Gov. ATKINSON recently appointed
d man to examine into the condition
of the convict camps Of Georgia. The
following extract from the examiners
report shows horrible state of affairs
"Convicts, male and female, black
and white, old and young, are herded
together, when not employed at their
tasks, in places so filthy that they ex-
cite disgust. In some camps the food
is scant and unwholesome, and the
camp bosses use the lash freely. The
examiner found that in many cases
convicts are held after their sentences
have expired, and that when ill they
receive little or no medical attention.
He reports that their clothing is both
insufficient and filthy, and is the same
for both winter and summer: also that
the punishments inflicted upon some
of the convicts are barbarOus."

The Prison ASSOcialiOn'S Work.

1t is thoroughly good work which
the Minneapolis citizens who have Or
gained the Hennepin county branch
of the Minnesota Prison Association
have undertaken. John Howard first
showed the civilized world the horrors
of prison life and the hOpelessness Of
the prisoners who were discharged after
serving their terms: but, in these latter
days Of strong philosophy and realiza-
ton of Christian principle of the broth
erhood of man and reciprocal obIiga-
ton, thoughtful men and women are
revolutionizing penal and reformatory
and eleemosynary institutions and
methods on a distinctively Christian
basis.
The branch of the State Prison
Association organized in this city for
Hennepin county proposes to take
discharged inmates of the penal reform
atory and eleemosynary institutions
in the county under friendly counsel
and supervision and help them to help
themselves by getting employment for
them and not to stop there but to look
after them in a friendly way, to guard
them from any temptation to return to
the former life of crime of ex-cOnvicts
and eliminates of reformatories and to
be practically helpful to poor and friend
less discharged inmates of asylums.
Here is practical philanthropy, practi-
cal religion. There is no dilettanteism
in this. And the association proposes
to put itself in touch with the city and
county authorities and is organized on
a practical business basis.
In Massachusetts there is an admira-
BILE system of help for the classes
referred to, working especially for
eX-convicts. The reports from that
and from others in this
country show that excellent results
have followed, but that the most dis
couraging feature is the general unwill-
ingness of people who can give en-
ployment to employ persons who have

over | was impressed with the fact
that almost any of them could be put
somewhere around lumber plant, and
lost in the general mass. And if this
should fall under the eye of any phian-
thropically disposed reader of the Lu,,s
herman, | have no doubt that if he
would write to the warden of the
penitentiary of his state and say that
he was willing to give trial to men
who had shown by their conduct they
were worthy of it, the result would be-
the saving to society of many men
who, for want of an opportunity, are
forever lost by term in penal insti-
tuition. [ am moved the more to make
