Well Said.

1t sometimes happens in stron,
Democratic county like ours that il
a hot contest in their party for nom
ination for office specious pleas are
put to individual Republicans to in
duce them to enter their primaries
and cast vote for one or more OF
the candidates. While we have oul
preference between individual dem
ocrats yet it is, as we view it, en-
ti;ely wrypg for Republican to en-
ter a Democratic primary. First,
it is demoralizing to our party to do
it, and then we are in honor bound
to vote the ticket after it is named,
regardless Of whether the ones we
wanted were chosen or not. We
think it the part of wisdom and ex-
ceedingly good taste for all Repub-
licans to refrain from voting regard
less of the reasons given us why
we should. Let the mocrats
nominate their own ticket and we
will nominate ours.-Huntingburg

Edward Box to Lecture.

Edward Box, the famous young
editor of ! he Ladies' Home Jour
nal, has finally been persuaded to
appear on the lecture platform, and
he will make his debut as a lecturer
in the South next October. He
will lecture in twenty of the princi-
pal cities and in few Of the neigh
boring Western States. The title
of his lecture will be "The Keys to
Success'-the most interesting sub
ject he could have chosen to talk
about. Mr.. Box is, perhaps, the
most successful aud popular young
man in America. Women read him
as they do no other writer, and it
may be confidently said that around
the personality Of no other man in
America is there greater interest
and curiosity on the part Of thous-
ands of women than centers on this
successful editor. The women will
not be disappointed in him, as, in
looks and manners, Mr.. Box pos
Sc ses all The qualities which they
like. He is as popular personally
with women as are his writings.
Up to this time he has declined the
most flattering terms to lecture but
last week the Southern Lyceum
Bureau, of Louisville, succeeded in
closing a contract with the Phila
lelphia editor. Mr.. Box has chos-
IN he Southern field entirely be-
cause he wishes to acquaint HIM
self with the South and its people,
md has stipulated that his lecturing|
our shall be so arranged as to al
ow him time for social engage
nents and observation.

The Schools OF HARRISON TOWNSHIP
opened Monday Oct 4th. We are glad
HARRISON township has trustee that
has some regard for law and order, and
we hope to see new era soon in the
management of cur schools.
1t is a lamentable fact that the sacred
office of trustee has sunk to sucn depths
a. to have saloon keeper to aspire u
it, but such will have so be said about
our township. 1t is fearful to think, that
we as people have become so blinded
that we could wish one so lost to the
better interest of his fellow men to
choose for Us who shall teach our child
rem, when the school room influence is
the mold OF human character. Ere this
finds its way to the reading public we will
have entered upon another school year,
and sad a. it is, it is but right to say SO
we enter this year with but few teachers
who have any regard tor Christianity.
He or she who stands in this sacred
place and molds the character of our
children should ever look to Jesus for
divine guidance. For how can we pC int
out the right way when we do not know
it, or hyw can we lead the right path
when our own feet are trending down
ward to the regions of eternal Woe
Every child of youth comes to the place
where the roads diverge, and If some one
Is mo- .iere that cares for his soul, n
poin. crt the right path what can we
expect as the result? And he who
stands as such to point out the way, how
can he when he knows it not? We
know teachers now in the sacred place
of the school room that swear and take
nj in, lap
that would only be shame to rehearse.
Yet they come to the superintendent
with certificate of morality. While
such is so we may only look for demor- /
alization on every hand, and for our jails
and penitentiaries to be overfiowing. 1
The law has been enacted that we must
send our children to school, it matters
not how wicked the teacher may be.
We would exclaim-Consistency thou
art jewel! But we can not see thee,
for we look through glass darkly
Parents awake, and let us apI eil 10 the
law makers Of our land to pass laws that
will prevent wicked or licentious persons
rom having hand in the molding OF
he character of the youth of this land,
md the he or she must be achristian in |
Iced who would dare set his foot in the
sacred place of teacher.

SHAKESPEARE,

THERE is considerable talk in
the papers about Letters relations
to the price Of wheat, and it is
the general thing to condemn Jo-
seph for having put up the price
to an unreasonable figure. At the
same time the editors are unani-
nous in agreeing that the price
would have gone up anyhow on &C
count of short crops. They are
probably mistaken in this. There
was no shortage, as is evident from
the fact that the shipments from
the United States have been un-
usually heavy, and still there is
evidently more than enough left
to last until new crop is ready.
But Joseph Letter, by his man
ipulations, allowed the farmers of
the Northwest to get probably not
less than S5O,OOO,OOO more for
their wheat than they otherwise
would have received.
This was accomplished mainly
by manipulating the visible sup
ply in such a way as to show it to
be much less than it really was.
No one in the Northwest ought
The mirror. (Stillwater, Minn.) 1894-1925, 1898-06-23
/ should have known what fruit
Would spring from such a seed.

The daily papers lately have
been lavish with scare heads like
the following: mo Quarter and
Burning Their Prisoners refer
ring to the military operations Of
the Cuban and Philippine auxilli-
aries who are now allied to the
United States in the war with
Spain. We do not notice any dis
approving comments on this mode
Of warfare. Yet the press of this
country cannot be ignorant of the
military rule which permits repris-
ais to be made when one of the
belligerents violates the laws of
civilization.
If the allies of the United States
burn their prisoners alive, there
can be little dispute about the
right Of Spain to execute similar
number of prisoners in the same
manner.
Gen. Washington recognized
this principle when he caused one
of the captured English officers to
be drawn by lot and sentenced to
be hanged as a reprisal for the
murder of Nathan Hale, though
that murder was not committed by
English soldiers but by Tories.
It would be we'll for the United
States not to invite the Inaugural
ton of barbarities, as we are well
aware that Spain is inclined that
way. And at present they unfort-
unately have in their hands eight
men whom we cannot afford to sac
rifce as an offering to the barbar-
ism of our allies.

for less money than any other. The
words he gives utterance to, while
addressed chiefly to business men,.
apply equally we'll to every other
man. To make success in life a
man must have the courage of his
convictions and stick to them. The,
letter is like the writer. Few men
have met the adversities in bust
ness Of Mr.. Munsey, and few would
have Lad the courage and ability
to meet and surmount them as he
has done. He is a living monu--
ment to the possibilities of cour-
age, energy and ability, unaided by
capital, in this country today.
The mirror. (Stillwater, Minn.) 1894-1925, 1898-06-23

to have anything but kind words
for Mr.. Letter, for he is the only
big wheat gambler for years who
has taken the side of the market
which would benefit the farmers,
and thereby taught a lesson to
that relentless horde of "bear''
spectators who have for years
kept the price of grain below what
it ought to have been by means of
selling wheat which did not exist
for future delivery, thus creating
an artificial supply, besides being
paid elevator charges and insur-
ance on millions Of bushels of
wheat which did not exist any,
where except in their vest pockets.
It would be we'll for the farmers
if they could organize in such a
way as not to market their wheat
before it is needed by the millers,
thus avoiding the accumulation of
that visible supply which is such
a tremendous factor in the making
of low prices, besides being the
means of enabling "bear" specu-
lators to sell "short.'
If they we're to do this they
would but be following the ex-
ample Of the corporations which
control the production of coal and
iron and other products too numer-
Gus to mention.

1RC MBULL.
SOME WISE men believe only
that which they can see. And yet
how misleading is not their sight.
Their judgment of what they see
is governed by their surroundings.
If man were mere atom in size he
would doubtless believe that an
iron bar will float, because a sew
ing needle does so, and that water
will rise above its level, because it
rises in a capillary tube. His at
tention and observation would be
confined to the phenomena ofmole-
cular physics, and his little mind
would be unable to grasp the
laws of dynamics.
SO the wise" materialist is sat-
isfed with crediting only that
which he can see, even though his
narrow and strabismal vision does
not tell him single truth.

IT IS a remarkable fact that while
the Christian churches of the
United States are sending mission
aries to the far East to convert the
people of the land that was the
cradle of the Aryan races, that
same land is sending to this coun-
try the philosophy that has there
been nursed and preserved for
thousands Of years, and it's teach
ings are finding adherents among
the most enlightened of our Chris
tians, who say that it is nothing
but more light shed upon the
teachings of the Great Master,
whose principal and oft-repeated
maxim is that only through the love
of humanity and the exercise of
charity and self-sacrifce can the
kingdom of heaven be gained.
Every kind act toward your suf-
fering or ignorant brother carries
with it its own reward, because it
makes you a better man.
Surely there is something divine
in the idea that noble thought
lives on forever even if not uttered
and that those noble thoughts and
impulses come to him who fits him.
self for their reception through his
own actions and life. and as the
thought is the beginning of all &C
ton so our lives are assisted by
noble thought.

MILTON.
The National Printer-J journalist,
after quoting an item from The
MIRROR to the effect that while all
other professions have been repre-
scented in the prison during The
MIRRORS existence, there has never
yet been an editor sojourning here,
says
1--WE presume from the high
character of The MIRROR that it is
edited by some printer who has re-
formed under the moral and re-
straining influences of the prison
regime. Having been promoted to
the position of editor, it follows,
that when the term of imprison-
ment, with large allowance for
good behavior, has expired, this
gentleman, who entered from some
other less ennobling calling, will
never again see the inside Of prison
walls in the capacity of prisoner,
however often he may enter to do
good"
Well, some Of them did come
back, and as prisoners, too. The
present one, however, believes that
had he been an editor before he
entered the prison he would GER
tainly have concealed the fact when
sent here, out of regard for the
members of that honorable profess
sion. There are times when it is
perfectly legitimate for man to
deny his nationality and his pro-
fession. At such times he would
naturally select such business as
would not suffer in reputation from
having one Of it's members in pris-
on.
The present editor was a banker.

The Socialist party at it's con-
vention in Chicago decided that
inasmuch as the prospect of carry
ing the country in general elec-
ton are somewhat slim, it will con-
fine it's operations to eating up the
state Of Colorado by piecemeal. To
this end it will locate aiming COL
ony in Colorado as a nucleus.
It is remarkable fact that every
so often a colony Of this kind is
launched. Sometimes they are en-
gineered by land company, but
more often by poor, deluded vision
aries who are pervaded by the
fixed idea that all that is necessary
to gain prosperity and an easy in
dependence is to get away by them
selves in some wilderness beyond
the reach of the grasping capital
ists.-But talk will not bring pros
perity.
However, it will not be so far to
walk back from Colorado as it was
from Topolobampo, Sonora. That
was the longest waikiki!
