In an address last week in Washington
tciore the Publishers Association, Plrsi-
dent Roosevelt showed that lie had the
true appreciation Of the power of the
press, and the responsibility that rests
uron every editor. He said

here tonight | wish not merely to wei
come you, but to say that l trust every
man OF you feels the weight oi the re-
spUnsibiiity that rests upon him. The

and month out, week in and week out,
day in and day out furnishes the material
which is to do its part in shaping the

the man who, more than any other, d =
tclmines what kind of character, and
therefore, ultimately what kind Of govern
mcnt, this people shall possess"
