Brother John Wanamaker is a very
good and pious man no doubt. The
voters at the last election in Pennsyl-
vania said so, but advised him to keep
out of politics. Pennsylvania politics is
no place for a good, pious and moral
man like Brother Wanamaker.

THE new editor enters upon his
duties profoundly impressed with
the possibilities for good which
have unexpectedly been placed at
his disposal, and with a sincere
hope that he may find it within
his power to utilize those posi-
bilities to the best advantage for
his fellows and brothers in misfor-
tune. 1t is usual for a new editor
on taking possession to announce
policy. We shall make it our
policy to do everything possible as
a man and a gentleman to better
the intellectual and moral condi-
ton of the inmates of this institu-
ton. We have firm belief that ii
man who improves himself intel
lectually and morally will thereby
materially add to his own comfort
and happiness. He will thereby
be able to appreciate those gems
Of literature with which our library
abounds, and which will always be
found to be kind and comforting
companions. Among the inmates
are many who have the ability to
help in this work. From these we
ask that they give us their best
thoughts. Many are accomplished
artisans. From these we ask that
they write down any curious and
interesting facts about their trades
that may prove useful.
Finally, to the outside public,
those who have liberty to breathe
Gods fresh air. and smell the
fragrance Of the flowers and hear
the birds sing in the woods. tc
them we say: If you have kind
thoughts, or thoughts that would
benefit and cheer those upon whom
the hand Of society lies heavy
send them to us, that we may dis.
seminate them.

1t is related of the Ninth Z. S. in

from the various companies to stay be-

that some of the men were crying. He
paid no attention to this till he dis
missed the men and left the building,
when the men followed him in string

look on. Solemn moralizing
takes up the largest part of our
paper. Our reasoning is primitive,
and we have made the discovery of
infinitely stale ethical principles.
Our range of experience is small
and sordid: altruism and egotism
alternate in equal unreasonable
ness. We have all the fallacies of
the hermit without his loftiness of
motive.'
Well boys, you never know how

But what did the Criterion ex-

osophy to discover ethical princi-
Piles that are not stale for it's peni-
tents? That our range Of expert
ence was grand and liberal? Alas,
no. AS subjects of mental vivisec-
ton we no doubt offer an inter-
esting field to the experimenter,
and we are glad to be members of
the class. But, dear Criterion, we
have one redeeming feature-we
are candid-and we have no pict-
ures in our paper, painted with an
old broom, said to represent art
istic water colors.

In WAR bravery has no more to
do with the success Of an army
than discipline, perhaps not as
much. The lack Of discipline is
not the fault of the men, but of
the officers, and the life Of the
private soldier often depends on
the efficiency of those in command
Many of the officers of the army
and navy will risk the lives of their
men in a spirit Of bravado, where
no adequate result can be secured,
other than the individual glory of
the officer in charge. That sort
Of thing should be discouraged,
for the life of an American citizen
is fully as valuable after he has
volunteered as a soldier as it was
before, and the fact that he has un-
conditionally placed himself at the
disposal of his country should not
be taken advantage Of uselessly.
In the Franco-Prussian war one
of the German generals-a veteran
in command of an army-corps-
stormed and carried the heights of
Spicheren. It was bravely done
at an enormous loss of life-but it
was unnecessary and useless, and the
general was quietly asked for his
resignation. This principle, that
their full duty-and no pyrotech-
nics-is expected should be i'm
pressed, especially upon the volun-
teer officers.

WITH last weeks issue Of The
MIRROR the gentleman who has
for the past fifteen months guided
the editorial destinies of the paper
severed his connection Herewith
having concluded his contract, and
being unwilling to continue on the
same terms. He leaves the insti-
tuition followed by many good
wishes, and we sincerely hope that
he may find in the wider sphere
which he now enters useful and
profitable field for his talents.

his character. 1t is suffering and
misfortune which bring out the
best traits in a man, endurance,
and efforts to overcome the evils
which beset him. They are like
the cupel in the assay Office; they
absorb the dross and leave the
clear shining metal. But if the
body which encounters them con-
talns not the noble metal of which
a true man is made, then the test
will leave nothing but charred
wreck. It will then be a case Of
drawing pen picture on blotting
paper Every stroke will aggra-
vate the already soiled surface.
But take the other side of the
proposition. What becomes of the
man who has never met adversely
or suffering?
If he be man of strong charac-
ter and unbending will, he may
survive, but he will be hard and
unsympathetic; his heart will not
be touched by the misfortunes of
others, and worst Of all he will not
enjoy the good things which for
tune has showered upon him.
For the human capacity for enjoy
ment is limited. It has narrow
margin, and he who would en-
coach upon this does so at his
peril.
But the weak and unselfsh man.
who sails along smoothly without
encountering submerged rocks or
shoals, and basks in continued
sunshine and prosperity, what of
him? Only too often, alas, does
he drain the cup at a gulp, and
becoming stated and cloyed, revolts
at the dregs which are all that are
left of life's pleasures.
Frequently we hear Of a million
aire, like the late Havemeyer, for
instance, with everything that
wealth could purchase at his COM
mand, laying violent hand upon
himself. We can but surmise that
men of his class have exhausted
the enjoyments of life and are
unable to bear the weight Of the
empty shell which is left to them.
Happiness is only relative. That
which will make one man happy
might seem supreme misery to
another. The prisoner would be
happy with liberty and take chances
on securing food and shelter.
While to a capitalist suddenly con-
fronted with such a proposition,
life might cease to charm. 1t is
the continual upward striving with
it's occasional successes, which keep
a man happy and contented. But
when a heavy reverse is encount-
cred, the true man will fight to
overcome it, and if he has not lost
too many limbs in the fall his
chances of success are good.

WE PRINT on our front page a
poem written by an inmate. Now
while we don't want to discourage
the boys who are POLITICALLY in
clined, we want to call their atten-
lion to one reason why poetry
written in prison can never be a
success. 1t is simply this: You
can't grow your hair long enough
in prison to be a first-class poet.
Take Mr.. R. LIE Gallienne for ex-
ample, and it will be noticed that
even though his hair is much
longer than would be allowed by
the rules of the Minnesota State
Prison, still his translation of
Omar Khayyam is at least some
what Indifferent. OF course those
aspiring to climb Parnassus might
apply for permission to wear long
hair, and if it should be granted
there is no telling what might
happen.
