Several critics have questioned
the authenticity of the facts con-
tanned in last weeks article en-
titled, "Desertion from tie Army"
The writer vouches for the correct.
ness OF bis statements, and only
mentioned things that came under
his observation. He denies being
a sore head because of having
failed to gain his superior's good
will, Or disappointed because he
failed to find the army a sinecure.
Said article was based on personal
experience as a private, and not
from hearsay conversation as some
may suppose.

The program for next Sundays
quarterly meeting is going TO be
on very elaborate scale. Profess
sor Burchard and several mem bers
of the choir will be present and
give vocal selections. The mem
bers of the Chautauqua, however,
will furnish the greater part of the
entertainment with essays, recita-
tons and descriptive articles deal
ing with timely subjects. It is
expected that all the members will
be present, especially those who
will take part in the program. The
MIRROR joins in wishing success
to the new officers on the event of
their first quarterly meeting.

Celestine st, Antoine, a life pris-
oner at this institution. passed
away December 18th. He was
sentenced from Fillmore Co. Nov.
II, 1906, to life imprisonment on
the charge of murder in the first
degree. Mr.. st. Antoine died from
heart trouble, he being sick only a
few days. He was 70 years old at
the time of his death, but was as
active as a man much younger.

On another page of this issue
appears the initial number of a
series of articles that will be writ
ten by @. r. FL. The series is en-.
titled, "Keynotes in the Life of
Dry Dooray," and we believe that
our readers will like Mr.. Dooray
as soon as they become better &C.
quainted with him. The name
Dry Dooray is not a common one,
so we predict that the letters will
prove to be as uncommon as the
name.

The list for the new books that

The copy is now being received by
the printers, and the new catalogue
will be pushed to completion and
delivered in the cells so each man
can get an opportunity to read
them.

Love Of Locality.
Continued from page four.)

northern summer. But they also
prefer certain localities in the
countries in which they pass the
two seasons, and not always be-
cause there is none or better food.
or greater safety at these places.
But because they were born and
spent their youth in one, and the
other is the locality in which they
spent their first winter. They are
acquainted with these places, with
their Objectionable and their de-
sirable features; but they look upon
the unknown with trepidatlon or
SUSPICION.
We have two good examples on
this continent of animals which
love climate. A species of rein
deer, RangySy Tmandus, inhabits
the extreme NORTH. ranging beyond
the Polar circle, and the elk or
moose, Alces MacAAs. I do not re.
fer to Germs Canadensis, which is
often called the elk. There was
nothing before the coming of the
white man with his gun and ak to
prevent the reindeer from gradually
extending its range farther south
until it could have lived in Florida.
AS it is the reindeer cannot live
long and never breeds in a temper
ate climate. Nearly the same is
true of the moose, altho it does
not range as far north and is found
farther. south than the reindeer. it
has never, l believe, inhabited the
southern part of the United States.
A great many of the large her
bivorOus animals are more or less
migratory on account of the nature
of their food, and those which are
gregarious must constantly move
from place to place, but they like
to return to the localities they
know, as often as the feeding con-
ditions will permit; and each herd
has it's particular grazing grounds.
Nearly, if not all! monkeys and
apes whose habits are we'll known,
return again and again to the same
localities, if they do not constantly
stay in the same nelghborhood.
We all know that man when
compelled to live in certain re-
gion for time, prefers 1t to others
which are better suited to his ex-
istence. We see men living in the
most inhospitable places. In des-
erts, in mountains, in sHamps and
jungles, and in places where the
sun hardly ever shines. They
we're once driven to these places
by their enemies, they adapted
themselves to the climate and con-
ditions, and often the causes which
placed them or their ancestors
there, cease to exist, they will
not leave because it has become
home to them.
When a man, for one reason or
another, leaves the place of his
birth or the neighborhood where
he spent his youth and comes in
contact with the cold, unsympa-
thetic world, he paints ''the old
swimmin' hole' and "every loved
spot that his Infancy knew" in
glowing colors. Even the people,
because they were part of the en-
vironment, are better than those
he meets in after life. And he is
inclined to boast about "York
State" and "the pies that mother
used to make" A man who was
born in England finds lots of nice
things to say about London with
all it's fog, smoke and noise.

first ideas we form; the places or
ideas we have associatad with for

There is an even chance that one
more republic will be carved out

In the current number of one of
our leading magazines appears an
interesting and able paper from
the pen of Judge Gaynor of the
New rk..Supreme Court entitled:
'The Prevention of Dishonest For
tunes" He advocates in a most
interesting and convincing man.
ner many reforms, but his treat
ment of the railroad transportation
question is unique to say the least.
He contends that there is no way
to stop rebating save by providing
by statute for the appointment of
freight agents by the federal gov
eminent. Such a move would
certainly be effectual, and one that
is entirely practical too. He claims
that in Germany the forceful and
dominating Bismarck was up
against the practice of rebating by
the railroads and that, try as he
might, he could not stamp it out.
Finally, determined to kill the
practice in some manner; the gov
eminent took over the railroads
and all shippers were put on an
equal footing. 1t would seem in
this country that the appointment
of freight agents by the federal
government and rigid govern
mental supervision ought to be
ample to stamp out a pernicious
practice which Judge Gaynor
characterizes ''a persistent, vulgar
and heartless crime"
Brand Whitlock, the mayor of
Toledo says: "When America was
organized the city was left out"
AT first blush this statement seems
fanciful and absurd, but the more
thought one gives to it the stronger
it appears. Certainly few cities
of any size have anything to boast
of in the administration of munic-
ipal affairs. Almost all of our
states, with perhaps the exception
of few In the East, are admirably
and economically governed. The
people rule and demand strict
accounting by the state officials,
but in that same state may be a
great city whose administration is
a byword and reproach among
men; corruption, extravaganza and
vice are rampant, yet the people
say never word. During the last
few years the question of munlc-
ipal government bar received much
attention and ''the government by
commission" plan is being gener-
ally accepted as embracing the
most potent panaceas for our mu-
nicipal ailments. This plan, usa-
ally called the Galveston plan, is
being agitated in many cities and
is bound to spread until all cities
both great and small shall be gath
cred under it's bene6cent wing.
