carelessness, one of the most dangerous foes OF hu

tell your neighbors that the common housety which

EDIT0 RIAL.

OK the first page of this Issue of The Mirror
will be found brief review of the volume entitled,
Convict Life at the Minnesota State Prison Until
recently the publication of matter Of that character
has been tabooed by managers of penal institutions
However, there is no harm in such publicity. Con-
ditions are constantly improving and penologsts
ognze that fact. Corporal punishment and the lock-
step have been abolished in many prisons.
The problem confronting wardens is not show
to punish prisoners but rather how to reform them
and restore them to society as good citizens.
The Minnesota State Prison is referred to as
model and while the buildings now occupied are old
and ANTICIPATED, unfit for prison purposes and manu-
featuring nevertheless the morale of the inmates Is
of high grade and credit is due to those who have
brought this condition about AS the author Mr..
w. G. Hebron truly states the first two months OF
incarceration for the average prisoners provide pun
ishment enough to last lifetime OF course this
does not apply to all inmates but it is certainly true
of many of them.
It is neither the purpose nor the province of
The Mirror to laud any in particular regarding
the management of the Minnesota State Prison. The
facts speak more eloquently than all the eulogies
that could be uttered The Mirror however, desires
to direct the attention of the public to the fact that
no harm is done by the publication of such volume
as Convict Life at the Minnesota State Prison and
much good may result from it's compilation and cir
culation.
There have been prisons and dungeons since the
earliest days of recorded history and no doubt such
institutions will be in vogue until the end OF the
universe Great advancement has been made in the
treatment of those who have become 90 unfortunate
as to be segregated from society in general and thu

SENATOR KNUTE NELSON RESPONDS
Takes Steps to Prevent Government Competi.
tion With Printers Of the Country,

Senator Nelson has promptly re-
spOndel to the request of the Mime
sofa editorial association to stop the
government competition with print
ers by printing free return cards on
stamped envelopes, and last week
introduced bill in the senate;' of
which he sent copy to the executive
committee, which is as follows:
Be it enacted by the Senate and
House Of Representatives of the
United States of America in Con-
gress assembled. That from and
after the approval of this Act it shall
be unlawful for the Post-Otiice
Department., or any officer. head of
bureau, or chief Of division thereof,
to print or have printed, or sell or
offer to sell any stamped envelope
bearing upon it a printed direction
giving the name of any individual,
firm or company, or any number of
any pOst-Otfice box or drawer, or any
street number or the name of any
building to which it shall be returned
If uncalled for or undelivered: Pro-
vided, that this shall not apply to
those envelopes printed with return
card left blank as to name, address,
box, drawer, street number, or build
ing, and which only give the name of
the town or city with the State, dis
trict, or Territory.
Now that Senator Nelson has ofli-
cially taken the matter in hand,
there is cause for much hope among
the printing fraternity, and concert
ed action by the press Of the country
should prove effective with congress.

OFFICERS KILLING DISEASED STOCK
State Veterinarian Knowles Says that Dis
eases Must be Stamped Out.

The annual report of Sheep Com
missioner Ashbridge shows that scab
has been entirely stamped out in
Montana, and that sheep are in fine
condition. Other stock inspectors
have found but isolated instances of
disease, which was readily stamped
out. Stockmen in this district have
long been free from any important
prevalence of disease in their stock,
and especially has there been no dis
ease Of any consequence in cattle.
horses or sheep during the past year.
NJ. +. Knowles, state veterinaria
is in receipt Of advices concerning
the slaughter of diseased animals in
this state and in. connection there
with has issued \ warning to Cana
dian settlers.
''This is a matter which should be
given the widest publicity. The situ-.
alton is this: The state of Montana
permits shipments Of horses and cat
tie through the state enroute to Cana
da without requiring federal inspec-
tion prior thereto. In recent months,
however, such shipments from Idaho,
Wyoming, Oregon and Washington
have been refused admittance at the
Canadian line by inspectors and they
have been turned back into this state.
''The live stock sanitary board has
had them slaughtered, and of course,
at the expense Of the shippers. l
have recent advices of such treatment
for four horses shipped from Idaho
Falls. TO prevent such treatment,
shippers should first have their ami
mails inspected by federal authorities
or a recognized veterinarian, for the
Canadian laws are quite strict and
Montana cannot afford to become Il
dumping ground for diseased stock,

TO PROTECT WATERSHEDS
Government Is Making Experiments In Snowy
Mts.-Trying to Grow Trees from Seed.

Government Is Making Experiments In Snowy
Mts.-Trying to Grow Trees from Seed.
r. @. Lewis, forest range rider of
portion of the Snowies, recently re-
ceived Il large amount of tree seeds
from the government with instruc-
tions to plant the same on barren
spots in the mountains. If the ex-
pertinent is successful the govern
ment will plant large tracts now un-
fit for anything but tree seeds. and
valuable forests will spring up where
now are barren wastes. This will
serve to protect watersheds in many
sections of the semi-arid west.
The experiments are being carried
on in the Jeffe.son forest reserve,
which includes the SnOwies, High
woods, Belts and smaller ranges in
this section. 1t will take about five
years to determine whether or not the
venture is successful, and if growing
trees from seeds is found feasible, the
government will SOW over 1884,
acres in this manner. The seeds of
Douglas fir. yellow pine and lodge
pole pine are being used.
Supervisor Seely, with headquarters
at Great Falls, recently said concern
ing the purpose of these tests:
The purpose of our work along
this line is to protect the watersheds
which are needed for irrigation pur-
poses on adjacent arid lands and are
surther needed for the future water
fupply of several towns, and another
purpose is to supply, SO far as may
be, a strong and increasing demand
for commercial timber"

GETTING READY FOR FAST TRAIN
Through vestlbule Train Through Judith Gap
to the Coast.

General Passenger Agent II. 4.
Jackson of the Great Northern was in
the city yesterday making arrange
ments for a new train which will be
run over his road during the exposi-
ton, and which will probably be con-
tinued after the closing of the Seattle
fair, says the Billings Gazette.
The new train will be from Kansas
Cits' to the coast, and will be the equal
of any of the through trains which
now run through this city. Its
equipment will be of the latest stand
ard and tourist Pnllmans, it will have
an up-to-date diner. and will be run
on a fast schedule. In addition it will
run over the Billings & Northern from
this city to Great Falls and will be
the first though train to go over the
new connection Of the Burlington and
Great Northern. 1t will also give
Great Falls it's first through train
service between the coast and the
east.
The train, which will start on May
23, will leave Kansas City over the
Burlington tracks and will arrive in
this city early in the morning. 1t will
leave Billings going west at Il. IN.
and it's time between this city and the
coast will compare favorably with
that of the trains OH other roads. The
oa Of fhOnu6 rn in mi q n.y.; ~ a !; >, R;ll;,,uc
late in the afternoon, leaving this city
at ) O'Clock sharp. Connections with
Chicago and the Twin Cities will be
made here, and the train will continue
over the Burlington to Kansas City.
But few stops will be made between
Billings and Great Falls, and a much
better service between these two cities
will be established. In addition the
Great Northern is planning on many
other improvements Oh the Billings&
Northern which will be announced
later.
An order has been made by Secre-
tary Wilson of the department of
agriculture, directing that during the
coming summer an examination be
made of all forest reserves by agents
of the geological survey and classitica-
ton and designation made of all non
timbered areas and lands more val
liable for agriculture than timber with
view to segregating such land from
forests and placing them at the dispo-
sal of the public for settlement and
entry. 1t is estimated that if this
course is pursued thirty per cent. of
the lands set apart as forest reserves
will be restored to settlement, much
to the qualification of the people of
| the west.
