RADICAL AND
DANGEROUS
is ACTION OF ROOSEVELT TO-
WARDS NEW YORK WORLD.
Says Bryan-Libel Suit Threats a
New and Objectionable Doctrine
The President is Not the
Whole Government.

Lincoln, NeD, DEC. H. William
J. Bryan takes radical issue with
the president in Mr.. Roosevelt's
declaration that it is the duty of
the government to prosecute an in
dividual or newspaper which at
tacks the government or govern
eminent officials. In an editorial,
which will appear in next weeks
issue of his Commoner, Mr.. Bryan
attacks the presidents message
and comes to the rescue of the
press.
President Roosevelt has sent to
congress a message which an
nounces a new and dangerous doc
trine," Mr.. Bryan writes. 1T is the
duty of every publisher and every
believer in free speech and free
press to resent the presidents at
tempt to use the government to
terrorize those who would criticise
the action of public officials. No
official can claim exemption from
criticism merely because he is an
official, and no act of the govern
ment is so sacred that the humbleSt
citizen may not express an adverse
opinion upon it.
1t is "a matter of little conse-
Quence whether the charges made
by the New York World are true or
false; that can be determined by
suit at law in the ordinary way
but it is matter Of great import
ance that every editor and every
other individual shall be free to ex-
press his opinion on any subject
connected with public affairs.
The World demands an investi-
cation of the Panama purpose and
it is for congress to determine
whether investigation shall be
made. The fact that the president
thinks no investigation is necessary
is immaterial, If law is passed
which requires the presidents con-
currence he can sign or veto it -
that it his constitutional right. If,
upon receiving his veto. the house
and senate approve Of a message
by two-thirds vote, the measure,
according to the constitution, be-
comes law in spite of the presi-
dent.
An investigation is the best
method of bringing out the facts,
and if there has been misrepreSenta-
ton the president ought to urge
investigation rather than to op-
pose it.
But his proposition that the gov
eminent can institute libel proceed
ines against an individual or a pa
per for criticism of the governments
action is not only a new doctrine
but an extremely Objectionable one
If any individual has been libelled
he has his action at law. If the
individual concerned does not see
fit to prosecute, the government
cannot become his champion.
IF either the president or Mr.
Knox is charged with improper con
duct, the courts are open to then
but the president can not use thu
attorney general to punish thos,
who criticise him, Senator Knox O.
any other official.
Whatever offense the World ha,
committed If it has committed an
offense lis not against the govern
ment, but against individuals whC
have temporarily acted for the
government, or against individual
who are accused of bringing i'm
proper influence to bear upoI
officials.

THE PRETzEL.
its Simple Figure Scheme and Infinite
 Possibilities Of Variety.

The pretxel is one of the most re- mnrkable creations of the human mind and hand. It stands almost alone as m artificial product displaying the countless varieties of form produced by nature in the leaves of trees and blades of grasses. Of the millions upon millions turned out by the pretzel bakeries since the inception of the in- dustry 1t is not probable that any two were exactly alike.
 The general figure scheme of the pretzel must have been an inspiration. It would have been impossible for the human mind to conceive scheme so simple and yet permitting such ap- proach to infinite variation. Because of the peculiar shape of the pretzel it's construction Is most easily described by employing sailor mems terms. A blight is taken In roll of dough. and the ends are given half twist and brought back upon opposite sides of the blight. This makes the article somewhat heart shaped. There can have been no sentimental reason for this shape. for there is no product of art or nature further removed from the realm of sentiment than is the pretzel. The finished article looks as If it had been vanished and exposed to sand storm before the varnish dried.
 The pretzel is unique as an article of internal use. It cannot be classed as food or drink. It Is not dessert. nor Is 1t medicine Perhaps 1t should be chased as an appetizer-an appetizer not for food. but for drink. and therein lies its uniqueness. It is the great thirst producer. It is the third of a Sahara done up in twist of dough. If any one could invent something that would quench thirst as effectively as the pretzel can produce it his fortune would be made.
 The home of the pretzel is Ger many, where it is called bretzel or pretzel. according to whether 1t is in north Germany or south Germany. but fin America 1t is pretzel all the time, whether in North America or South America. The name Is commonly re- garded as being derived from words in the Latin language meaning bracelet. But Germans are not fond of taking words from the Latin tongues. Per haps the pretzel owes its name to the fact that it is baked on flat. board like surface. The German word for board is t-Washington Post.

 Lieutenant selfridge. who operated the first successful aeroplane of the Aerial Experiment association % Hammondsport, N. Y., was the hrst 10 congratulate Mfr Wright. Secretary Metcalf of the navy, Secretary of War Wright and numerous army and navy officers, together with enthusiasts from every walk of life, gathered about ths wizard of the air to grasp his hand. As three cheers were given, Wright calmly gave orders for replacing the machine on the starting track to pre- pare for another flight.
 Turning to Lieutenant Lahm, one of the leading aeronauts of the armys Mfr Wright said:
 How would you like to go up with me?" It was an invitation that need ed no repetition. There were no skep- ties In that crowd of enthusiastic spec tators, and there were great mum. Der who envied the favored lieutenant.
 With the two men, MT. Wright and Lieutenant Lahm, in their places, the start was made, the machine appar- ently rising from the ground as easily with his increased burden as 1t had with only the inventor aboard.
 Machine Lands Gracefully.
 As the machine completed the hrst round the motor skipped" on one cylinder, but on the succeeding i've trips there was no evidence that the engine built by the Wright brothers was overtaxed by the great strain inn posed upon it. After the sixth lap q beautiful landing was made within . hundred feet of the aerial garage, where the machine is sheltered from the clements.
 Among the large number of officials who saw MT. Wright make his ascsn' sions were Secretary Straus of the de- partment of commerce and labor, Sec retary Wright of the war department, Secretary Metcaf of the navy depart ment, Assistant Secretary Oliver Of the war department and Lieutenant General Nelson A. Miles. retired.

 miles, whereas in the longer second flight, despite the longer time in the air, the estimated distance sailed was only 3S1a miles.
 Not satisfied with breaking all dis. tance and time records for heavier than air flying machine, MT. Wright took Lieutenant Frank P. Lahm, the aeronaut of the signal corps, for spin around the drill grounds, making a new record for two man flight. All this happened so quickly and unosten. tatiously that the spectators, among whom were members of the cabinet and high officers of the army and navy, could hardly realize that history had been made and that new era in the progress of the civilized world was begun.
 The first flight was witnessed by only a handful of enthusiasts, but the news spread so rapidly that fully a thousand people gathered on the mili. tary reservation across the Potomac from the national capital to see the second

Higher and higher 1t rose. turned at slight angle as the aviator brought 1t around at the far side of the field and raced along at increasing speed. There was hardly quiver of the aeroplane in the first few rounds of the field, MT. Wright evidently having the steering apparatus well in hand.
 Rising and lowering at will, the sight of the man built bird was most impressive Round after round the machine travelled on, cutting short turns, shooting along the stretches and presenting somewhat the appearance of an automobile racing about an i'm ginary course in the air. The aviator paid but little heed to anything but his levers for warping the planes and con. trolling the planes which control the altitude of the craft. He seemed ob- livious of the crowd below until, hay. ing broken the record of 57 minutes 31 seconds established by him, the crowd raised cheer that told him of his new achievement. Then MT. Wright waved his acknowledgements.
 Wright Scares Crowd. Before the flight was begun watch was tied to the seat next to MT | Wright, and when a little later he saw that he had stayed aloft for over an hour. the time required in order foI him to fulfill his contract with the government, be made for Mother Earth. Sweeping down in sort oi "bump the bumps" fashion. the ma | chine bore down in the direction o1 1 tts crowd. which quickly scattered fearing that the aeroplane would TUT them down. Raising a cloud of dust as it slid along on the skids, the aero plane, which weighs nearly a thousand pounds. came to stop within twenty feet of the crowd. As Mir.

 Washington, Sept. 10.-Orville Wright smashed all aeroplane records and sent the United States flying far into the lead of worldwide aeronautics when at Fort Myer he scared aloft 1 hour 2 minutes 15 seconds without touching earth and held his great machine under perfect control throughout the unpre- cedented performance.
 Today, 1t is expected, the aeroplane will be sent aloft for record that will astonish the world even more.
 When, having descended, Wright added to the feat by carrying second passenger into the air, maneuvering the aeroplane with the same ease and accuracy as before, the 2,000 specta- tors went wild with enthusiasm, while even staid cabinet officers proclaimed that the air had at last been conquered by an American.
 Frenchman's Record Smashed.
 Previously MT. Wright had ascend ed and smashed Leon Delagrange's worlds record, 29 minutes 5 4-5 sec onds. The great planes rose like a swallow and remained in the air 57 minutes 31 seconds, only to descend because MT. Wright did not know he had been in the air so long and had no intention of making an endurance flight. But 1t turned out that the ma chine flew farther and longer during these evolutions than an aeroplane ever flew before, for 1t covered 51.3

 Paris, Sept. 10.-M. Delagrange when informed of the record breaking flight said of Orville Wright in America: T am neither jealous nor discouraged. On the contrary, weather permitting, I will try to fly an hour myself. Wright's apparatus is neither inferior nor supe- rlor to mine. It flies; so does mine.
