WASH CHlLDREN'S
FLANNELS.

Particular mothers who insist oil
washing the infants fiannels either be-
cause of the valuable fabric or from
fear of contamination from contact
with other clothes. find Peosta particu-
larry valuable.
There is no boiling-no shrinking.
There is little rubbing-wear longer.
The washing with Peosta makes the
fiannels perfectly soft, and there is a
freshness and sweetness much desired
in infants clothing. You will find that
infants are pleasantly susceptible to
such apparently unimportant eondi-
lions.
Peosta does the washing in about
half the usual time, and is the best
remedy" for tired women.

THE DUTIES OF EXECUTIVE OFFICERS.

Mr.. Roosevelt's definition of the
status Of executive officers is worthy
the attention and acceptance of al;
such officials The president has i'm
bibed the fashioned idea that the
executive is the arm of the legislative
He thinks it the duty of officers elected
to execute law, to make an honest eff
fort at enforcement of law without ar
gument as to it's foundation in justice
or possibility of enforcement. This
principle of President Roosevelt's,
which he inculcates in his action on
the anti-trust and interstate commerce
questions. might properly be accepted
by the judiciary as we'll. The duties of
g those who make laws, those who inter-
pref them, and the ones to whom is
given the duty Of their enforcement,
are clearly defined and should not be
confused.
II a law or any Of its provisions is
bad its honest enforcement will dis
close its unworthiness and bring about
its repeal or the elimination of its OBJ
noxious features. The responsibility of
Its execution, good or bad, rests how
ever upon the executive. He is not a
lawmaker, nor even law interpreter,
but simply the instrument that the
legislature uses to bring law breakers
before the bar of the judicial branch of
the constitutional trinity. 1t is pre-
sumption. as well as an official derelic-
ton on his part that he should assume
the functions of a lawmaker or a judge.
Close observers have noticed ten
dency on the part of executive officers
to act Independently, as their ideas of
expediency might suggest. In some
instances, mere notably in the cases of
interstate commerce and anti trust
legislation while strong and sustained
been lacking there has been much talk
and contention as to the impoSsibility
of the reinfof cecment, and this conten
ton has heretofore been largely ac-
cepted. II the president is right in his
conception of the procedure proper for
executive officers, the unpopularity of a
not questions for the officers charged |
with its execution. 1t is theirs not to
reason why, but to carry cases before /
the courts charged with the RESPONSE |
bility Of passing upon the offence and
the constitutionality of the law.
Mr.. Roosevelt appears to have the
correct conception. There has been too
much assumption on the part of execu-
tives not only In high places, but
among the minor officials. A crying
evil which needs reformation is the
practice prevalent everywhere of using
the sheriff's Office as collection agen-
cy. Warrants are sworn out for the APP
prehension of parties charged with en-
bezzlement or similar felonies and
placed in the hands Of the sheriff for
service with the single purpose of a j
collection in view. In many instances
no action for felony would lie and there {
is no intention to prosecute the case to
a conclusion. The sheriff chases down /,
the alleged criminal, who finds the I,
money with which to settle and the
case is dismissed, lacking prosecuting !,

THE BRl1lsHER WILL PAY IT.

Illustrative of the remarkable change
that has taken place in views held OF
protective tariffs, Secretary Wilson is
quoted by a republican newspaper In :
Washington interview as stating that
the British war tariff on imported GER
eals will not affect the producers OF the
United States to any appreciate de-
gree, except as higher prices in Great
Britain may curtail the consumption
In effect this statement means that the
American who exports grain to Great
Britain will raise his price by the
amount of the new tariff and the Brit
ish citizen who eats the flour will
have to pay it or go without. However,
Secretary Wilson did not jeopardize his
reputation as a republican one mite in
giving utterance to the above state
ment in the year 1902. Had he gone on
to explain that such tariff might give
great encouragement to the British
grain growing industry, and thereby
injure the American grower by the
amount of additional British grain
produced, as we'll as to partially COM
pensate the British farmer for the new
burden placed upon the entire British
public, he could have been accused Of
delivering twentieth century protec-
tive tariff stump speech.
II it should follow that with this
tariff ON cereals imported into Great
Britain the grain from the British coll
onies of Canada and India should be
favored in return for reciprocal favors
to British factories wishing to sell
goods in the colonies, the Britisher
could justly be brought before some
international court to receive sentence
for the larceny Of the American doc
trines of protection and reciprocity.
The reason the republican party is
invincible in its power today is that
it has been willing to learn in the past.
1t is the party that does things and
when found in the wrong is quick to
right about. Secretary Wilson is right.
The British citizen will pay the new
Boer war tax and the American grain
merchant will suffer only the loss of
curtailed consumption of imported
cereals which, in amount, no man can
accurately estimate at this time.
