Probation.
BY r. J. l.

few of the affairs of these American
Commonwealths that we rank as
foremost in Importance, and then
compare them with the need of to-
day, which is here sumed up in the
one word Probation.
During the One Hundred and odd
years of our existence as a nation,
we have found it was policy, right,
justice, to not exterminate the abo-
rigines- American Indians,
but to treat with them, though saw
ages. and assist them. not by deport-
alton, but by fostering them, by per-
hitting ourselves to see with their
eyes; in short, to Put ourselves in
their places" to make of the savage
mind, the savage heart, new organ
isms that were to become parts in a
civilized being. q am attempting
much in few words. Don't know
that shall have given lucidity to
my expressions.)
History tells us that at the time
of the founding of our Atlantic
coast Colonies, the Redmen were
found to be simple, childlike race Of
people. What cause this people to
deteriorate to become the terror of
the frontier folk, to be the savage of
which later historians speaks
Again we have but to read in the
pages of our histories.
The churches of the nations, here,
there, everywhere send our mission
aries to Preach the gospel of for
giveness'' to heather creation, and
where the butchers of the saw
age falls upon the Martyr to the
Cross" we mourn, but send another.
Yes when the creatures whom we
recognize as civilized humanity are
dealt with, there is not the same de-
gree of forbearance; perhaps because
we do not consider it called for. Do
we mistake our conception of that
need?

FOR You End For 'm1e

u j. =
It's all in the way you say it, lad,
It's all in the way you do;
If actions speak louder than words, my boy,
Just "cleave to the line" that's true
Just follow the straight and narrow path;
Lies battles you'll win in time
Keeping faith with yourself tbs the other that
hath
To his glory:-to yours, and to mine.
It's all in the way you think lad;
It's much in the wishing, too
That which ye think in your heart, my boy,
Is that which ye are, and do.
Honor him to whom honor belongs;
Begin with yourself to share
The Joys of right living-His Gift is yours,
Earths heavenly home so fair.
Addendum:
It's all in the way you think and say,
AS well as the wishing to do;
If you're wishing right and with all your might
The deed is half done for you.
And since thinking you say
The half that's away
vi thought but completes the task
l sa deed that's well done, if 'twore well when
begun
Nothing more is required, or asked.

In the last few years much has
been said and written on this sub
ject. Its inception into the do
main of Uncle Sam is, believe, &C
credited to that humanely just jur-
ist, Judge Lindsay of Denver, Col.
No one seems to have volun-
teered to state the possible cause for
the inspiration which prompted
Judge Lindsay to create or enlarge
an idea, and which resulted in his
establishing a Juvenile Court and
the, what is now probation form for
the trying-out of Young America,
and what is becoming a wide sweep
ing movement for the reclamation
of mature man.
1t is my opinion that the kinder
garten for the instruction OF the
little men and women, lay back of
the then theoretical, but now proven
practical, institution of Probation.
Furthermore / believe and | base
my judgement on substantial evid-
ence-that this progressive policy is a
more general recognition of the fore
es of conservation or conservatism,
as indissoluble from the living,
breathing being, and not Adaptable
to the abstract only.
Do I make that point clear? Ii
not, let me state it in this way
Conservation of the inanimate nat
ural resources of man is insperable
from conserving of the power, the
wealth, and the bulwark for spirit
ual uplift, in the animate natural
resources in man.
AS matter of fact, / believe that
this newer departure within and
around the field of Jurisprudence
is not only vital, but is the most
vital, most pronouncedly important
and essential matter which now or
ever has been before the people OF
this nation.
Admittedly, that is a startling de-
claration. But just let us review a
The mirror. (Stillwater, Minn.) 1894-1925, 1911-03-23

(I do not doubt but that practically
every grammar school boy could
give the leading causes for that war.
But the causes were not considered,
for the reason that they of them
selves were important, but it was be-
cause of the fact that the necessity
for war was seen by the nationaleye-
by the great body of the people and
not, through the representatives, eyes.
So | say that when the great body
of the people realize the pressing
need for simplicity in this our civic
vitality the chord around which
and in which the national progress
is so pre-eminentIy manifest then
will the final decree for probational
adoption become what it now should
be; of first consideration in the main
tainence of our supreme American
independence.
The Civil War was, to use the
word in broad sense, fought for
principle-the primary fact before
the people (of the North was to
abolish slavery, or to emancipate the
slave. To the South, it was second
|
ary motif for the Inauguration
of that.war. But what | am getting
at is veriication of the statements
for which / contend that recogni-
ton of the forces of conservation as
applied to individuals is as essential
to the highest national develop
ment as is the established fact, since
is application. Of the conserving of
the inanimate natural resources of
man
/ The Civil War demonstrates an
earlier view of this conserving force,
since it made obvious that in unity
only is there strength.
Contending forces but establish
precedent for subsequent contentious,
no matter whether viewed nationally
or as an individual process, or evo-
luton.
Inner man is reflected in the out
er. Conserve the inner and you
preserve both.
The subject, with its relative in.
clusiveness is as long as it is broad
and it is as broad as the realm of its
habitation.
The very pinnacle to which il
affects; the very degradation tC
, which the objective descends, alignl
, the source with the outlet as ONT
maelstrom of destructiveness.
!, You never get back at man by
trying to get ever with him." Yol
, but sap the power of your own vita
, forces. Two hundred years an6
more of this trying to get back a
q him has resulted how? Look at th'
. number of the delinquents; look upo1
o the establishments grown from mere
+ 'shacks" to the gigantic proportion
, of our present day institutions, thei
{ auxiliaries etc, etc. The answer i
{ unmistakably plain. The secret fo
. progress is the ability one possesse
. toward being the other fellow.
Like the maker, so become th'
made.
With probation, the latitude t.
reclaim, and reinstate in self-esteen
! and otherwise, is not SO limited
With more natural environment
Q more familiar association or sur

e truth, but take the case of the In

may describe as the attribute, or
moral man.
A weakIing, physically, has but
little stability morally, providing of
course, the position occupied has
tendency toward physical deteriora-
tion.
Foremost in the van of progress
is this idea of Probation. Its pro-
totype-the modern colony plan sug-
gests sort of half way house along
this line of advance. These institu-
tions may be said to be the proof to
an experiment which is concluded
in the next step above this medal
position, and is readily recognized
by its title-Probation.
The progress of the colony plan is
attested by the returns or reports
from such countries as Belgium and
Switzerland. The old Penal Colony
has no place in this progressive
movement. The old inquisitorial
man on the-rack idea is being exter-
pated and cast into the sea, in fulfill
ment of the law of fitness" to
henceforth be oblivioned as the fot-
sam, then the jetsam of Sargasso.
In connection with=the probation
ing of the men, should say to i'm
pose fine of not less then Fifty,
nor more the One Hundred Dollars.
Said fine to be appropriated by the
State, and paid in connection with
the general tax items of the State, by
the county wherein the crime was
committed and fine imposed; the
same to be used by the state for the
benefit of the people of the whole
state in developments or improve
ments as follows: Deepening and
broadening of the channel of the
Minnesota River as far as could
reasonably be done; enlarging the
: channel of the Mississippi River to
the utmost reasonable distance, and
by erection of dams and locks. and
excayating for canal-ways around
! rapids, I see no reason why this
means Of developing, while en-
hancing the value of the marketable
; products of the central and north
J central sections of the state would
not, in like manner, create larger
number of industrial centers and
} more closely settle these parts with
3 thrifty peoples thus induced.
? A cheapening of the costs of trans
portation would be one the results;
7 while both St. Paul and Minneapolis
l as the trade centers of these develop
ed sections would reap a wonderful
| trade surplus, which as it is now
t amounts to a trade deficit. Also in
e the Foresty division of industry a
4 more efficient force could be sup
e Piled and be under the direction OF
8 the Forest Inspector; a fire patrol
r stationed at convenient and imprto-
8 ant points could be assisted toward
r bringing in some return on the cost
8 for their maintenance; by build
ing of cabins for the watchmen at
e various points along the patrol lines
and by supplying them with stock
0 which should be allowed to forage
q in the forest and on range lands
!. This plan of providing stock-cattle
), and sheep-would make it obligatory
: on the part of the watchman to
: look after the stock while traversine
' or patroling the forest.
Toward winter the stock could be
q gathered in and either transported
: to winter quarters on some of the
u state farms, or have the necessary
:. food shipped to the nearest avaible
: point, when mature they could be
0 disposed of and replaced by younger
