RUSSIAN POLICEMEN.

London -Bits:-The Russian police
system is extremely complicated, for it
practically gives Russia an assistant police
man in every house in St. Petersburg. The
landlord has private porter or acts as
porter himself. A porter has authority to
make an arrest, and he is obliged to rush
from the house to the street at the sound
of police whistle:
As there is policeman stationed at every
block, which is the limit of his beat, and
as every policeman within certain radius
may respond with the porters to the signal,
it takes but few seconds to get a platoon
of uniformed men. with almost regiment
of porter policeman together.
Russia has also most elaborate system
of training its policeman, and some time
ago there was opened at St. Petersburg a
fully equipped policeman's college, de-
signed to train men in the law. AT this
college policemen are made familiar with
the tools used by criminals, their teachers
holding that they cannot become proficient
policemen in any other way.
The Russian policeman attends lectures
at which burglars methods and instru-
ments are explained, so that he can check
mate them, while he has the advantage of
the criminal museum, which is attached
to the college. There every appurtenance
known to the breaker of the law must be
experimental with until its every use is
thoroughly understood.

COMMENDs PAROLE
BOARD WORK
Frank Hopkins Of Fairfax Asks Co.
operation in Work Of Aiding Paro|-
ed Prisoners.

Frank Hopkins in Fairfax Standard: THE
Standard of last week contained an article
from DR.. S. G. Smith of the state board
of parole. The work that this porole
board is doing is very commendable.
They take personal interest in the subject
without any consideration as to financial
remuneration. At the request of the board
l sent in some fifteen names of representa-
tive men of Renville County from different
localities, who think would be glad to
cooperate in looking after these paroled
men. If there is anybody who desires to
be listed with the board of parole as vol
unteer to encourage and assist, wherever
possible, these men to be upright, industri-
GUS and honest, shall be pleased to submit
your name. 1t is not possible for the par
ole board, however big hearted they may
be, to reach individual local cases and it is
a distinct and christian privilege, not to say
christian duty, of the upright honest citizen
to assist wherever possible, in causing these
paroled men to regain their self respect
and be men in the full sense of>the word.
There is a greater demand for practical
service of this kind of a citizen to do than
there is to shoulder musket in defence of
our country. l would like to also suggest
that if more of our business men and farm
ers would become interested in encourag-
ing our boys by rendering them unsel6sh
assistance and advice in times of need, not
nearly SO many of them would have to be
sent to places of confinement to be paroled
afterwards when it ismore difficult to bring
them back to be men. The interest you
take in the boy who does not expect it from
you, your neighbors boy, will possibly
have more effect than upon one in whom
you are interested either financially or by
relationship. l am glad at any time to
cooperate with anybody who is interested
in saving the boys or redeeming the men.
If you have any ideas, drop in and we will
talk it over.

CONVICT PHILOSOPHY.

You abide in brown stone mansion travel

You live your life as you find i'll fight with

You take what the gods have granted-and me?
seek and find.
The birch canoe and the trapper's shack,
The starlit nights and the unknown track,
The storm tossed surf and the headlands loom
The tapping sheet and swaying boom,
The jungle stencil and the wild beasts roar,
The death kissed swamps and the fevered shore
The flower decked isles of the southern seas
The lofty palms and the trspc breeze,
The quick. sharp fight and the bullets whine
The looted town and the good red wine;
The surging cities with crowded streets,
The changing harbors and the grimy fleet.
for these?
You who sit by the fireside with children round
your knees,
You bask in the light of fortune-I court the
goddess of chance;
You live as your fathers before you-mine were
ruf11ers of France. G. H.
1t is the prisoner adventures philosophy
put in poetic form, the same note that ap-
pears in many another prison verse. Ore

That we wanderers have when we meet,

tossed sea,
Or in Africas jungles untrod,
But wherever it is you and will still be

CHOOSES PRISON As LIQUOR CURE.

St. Louis Republic:-C. L. TORI, former
ly prominent citizen of Muskogee, Okla.
prefers prison cell to drunkard's grave,
and voluntarily asked to be committed to
the State Penitentiary at McAlester.
He said that he had become convinced
that this was the only way he could be
saved from himself, and the conditions were
such that this request could be officially
granted.
AS a result of heavy drinking Tor is
alleged to have embezzled about five thous-
and dollars from minors for whom he was
guardian, and several months ago was con-
victed in the District Court and appealed.
He had an excellent chance of beating the
case in the upper courts, and astonished his
own lawyers as we'll as the officials by his
sudden demand to go to the penitentiary.
He was given commitment papers by the
clerk of the court. put them in his pocket
and got on the first train for McAlester.

PRISONERS AID.

Duluth News Tribune: Prisoners
Aid is an organization that has the right
humanitarian viewpoint. 1t is not ruled
by sentimentality, it is not moved by pity,
it is not offering roses, nor misplaced
sympathy.
1t is thoroughly practical and is entirely
humane. More than this, it has done a
lot of good work right here in Duluth and
in very quiet way.
Criminals are not born, they are bred,
and as soon as the masses of men thorough
ly realize this they will have the right start
ing point. Society, which is all of us, will
then also realize its own responsibility in
the breeding.
Having made criminal, the crucial
time as to what is to be the net result is
the DAYS and weeks following his arrest,
which reaches climax at his conviction.
1t is then his point of view as to himself
and his future, his right attitude toward
his own act and the public, his own duty
to himself must take form.
Whether it will shape into bitterness and
vengeance, hopelessness and despair, or in
to manly resolve and an earnest desire,
depends first of all upon whether or not he
gets from others hope for himself and
courage with that hope.
1t is the Prisoners Aid that goes to him
at this crucial time, not with any maudlin
sympathy, but in the spirit of helPfulness,
bringing him an assurance that it is not too
late, and that he is not irretrievably con-
demned.

Farmers and Consumers.

The national conference at Chicago
to consider ways and means to reduce
the toll charged on foodstuffs between
the producer and consumer heard some
good suggestions. The heart of the
trouble as recognized as this enormous
per cent that is taken by the agencies
of distribution. Emphasis was placed
on the necessity of assistance from the
national government. Congressman
Summers wanted the government,
through market department, to sup
ervise markets. Mr.. Yokum of the
Frisco railway system declared that the
government must take hand in aiding
the establishment of system of econ
omic food distribution. Yet in Califor-
MIA the citrus fruit growers, who had
been getting just enough to live on
while the consumers paid eXtortionate
prices for the fruit, without govern
ment aid, have organized a system of
cooperation so that they absolutely
control the market. They have CEN
trail bureau in constant touch with the
state of the market and subsidiary bu-
reaus in every county, so that daily it
is known just how much fruit is wanted
and the supply is thus regulated and all
with direct touch to the consumer.
Why is it not possible for other food
producers to do likewise?

How About 1t?

s'No tax on the sugar bowl" sounds
admirable.
But what are you going to do with
the thousands of American farmers
who have put their money into beet
sugar? Kill that pestiferous fly, the
Sugar Trust, if you can, but try not to
drop a rock on the forehead of fifty
thousand farmers.
An expensive sugar bowl is deplor-
able. What about one hundred millions
of American money hitherto spent for
raising sugar in the United States, on
a basis of good wages, and the utiliz-
ing of American soil, being sent abroad
and paid out for raising sugar on the
lowest possible wages from soil outside
of the United States?
The people of the United States have
all got to live, and they have all got to
have jobs.
How can they live and prosper unless
they buy of each other?
If you get sugar from Cuba, your
wool from Australia, your meat from
Argentine Republic, your machinery
from Germany, your cloths from Eng
land, eggs and butter from Denmark
and if you compel everybody in Amer
lea to work and produce in direct COM
petition with the cheapest labor of the
world, what are you going to do with
and for the labor of the United States?

Youth is the springtime of life. Il
is the time to acquire information. so
that we may show it off in after years
and paralyze people with what we
know. The wise youth will LAY low
till he gets whole lot of knowledge
and then in later days turn it loose in
an abrupt manner. He will guard
against telling what he knows. little
at a time That is unwise. | once
knew youth who wore himself out
telling people all he knew from day to
day, so that when he became Il bald
headed man he was utterly exhausted
and didn't have anything left to tell

know should be saved for our own use.

Farewell Dinner Given in His Honor

In New York Friday the Right
Hon. James Bryce, retiring British
ambassador. said goodbye to his
friends in America, in a farewell din
ner given in his honor by the Pilgrims
at the Waldorf. Mr. Bryce's speech
of farewell was characteristic of his
attitude toward this country and his
solicitude for our welfare. The key
note of the address was his prophecy
that America, no matter what dan
gers and crisis confronted her, will
survive to lead the march of civiliza-
ton.
Walter H. Page made first pub
lie speech since his appointment by
President Wilson as ambassador to
England.
