THE ONE RESPONSIBLE MAN.
New York World.)

In his speech at Sioux City, Ia, Mr..
Bryan asserted that the number OF
trusts has increased during the last
eleven years, and added Not only
this, but with the most strenuous Re-
publican you ever had in the White
House, he has not succeeded in put
ting one trust magnate in the peni-
Tertiary"
Mr. Bryan seems to have struck
the trail at last Now let him follow
it. Wherever trust is in operation
in defiance of the laws of the United
States there is some individual law
breaker. For the failure to prosecute
this "one responsible man. the blame
rests upon the President of the Uni
ted States, who is commanded by the
Constitution to take care that the
laws are faithfully executed.
A hostile Congress may turn a
deaf ear to the Presidents sugges-
tions for new legislation; but Con-
gress has nothing to do with the en-
forcement of law. Within the pro-
vince no reactionary Senate can tie
the Presidents hands. No hostile
Speaker, no Committee on Rules can
thwart his purposes. He is free
and Independent agent, who can re-
move any District-Attorney who
fails to present evidence of presump-
tive lawbreaking to grand jury.
Yet in what cases has Mr.. Roose-
welt ever attempted to enforce the
criminal section of the Sherman law
against individual ''malefactors of
great wealth." In what cases has he
ever ordered a District-Attorney to
present evidence of personal guilt
to a grand jury? What District-At-
torney has ever been removed foA
thwarting the Presidents Instructions
and granting immunity to men that
control and operate lawbreaking
trusts?
Mr. Bryan wastes his time, his ener-
gy and his opportunity in attacking
vague, Indefinite, incoherent, imper-
sonal Republican party for failure to
enforce the criminal section of the
Sherman law Parties do not enforce
laws Individuals enforce them. The
Constitution knows nothing about
parties. The Federal statutes know
nothing about parties. But both
the Constitution and the statutes know
a great deal about the President of the
United States, who is the Chief Magis-
trate of the nation, and whose duty
to execute the laws is mandatory
If the Federal antitrust laws
are not enforced Mr.. Roosevelt is
the one responsible man. 1t is he
whom Mr.. Bryan as leader of the OPP
position must hold responsible and
accountable-not Senator Penrose, or
T. Coleman DUPONT, or Speaker Can
non, or Senator Aldrich, or the reac-
tionaries or Wall street; but Presi-
dent Roosevelt, the only person in
the nation who can compel the en-
forcement of the nations laws.

Women as Boys Teachers
Washington Post.)

Women teachers do a necessary and
a grand work. Their sympathy, their
tenderness, their delicacy fit them
to teach the young boy They mold
the finer side of his nature, they deYel-
op his manners and give him taste, as
we'll as starting his feet on the path
of knowledge. In the susceptible age
of innocent childhood their influence
upon his is necessary Then comes the
transition in him and in the power
which must be exercised over him The
man spirit appears in him, and it
needs mans spirit and mans arm
to control and develop it, If a being
ever needs the sympathy and interest
and teaching of men, that being is the
boy between IA and 20 years of age.
In half century modern life has
nowhere undergone greater change
than in the education of the young. In
the beginning the hardy old schooi.
master, with his baleful eye, his rod
of toughened birch, and his three
RS was the inheritance of six genera
tions, and it needed him and all his
attributes to teach the young idea how
to shoot Perhaps the butcher rod
was the most potent of all as an edu-
cational force. Then Froebel's kinder
garten ideas began to spread and the
pendulum swung clear to the other
end of the arc. Women took tn,
youngster out of the nursery, and he
never had the heavy hand of a man
upon his collar until the day when he
first tried to hide an inoffensive mus
tache from the guying sophmores with
the back of his hand He got his
chemistry. physics, mathematics, elo-
cution, and calisthenics all from the
fair hand of the lady teachers" The
ill-beloved and the well-deserved old
rod men went out of fashion and
moral suasion" took its place.

The Grace Presbyterian Church, of

that Senator Dupont, head of the

BEST FORM OF EXERCISE.
Boston Girls Enthusiast Over the
Use Of Dumbbells.

There is a good deal Of enthusiasm
lately over dumbbells among the girls
who are always up on the latest for
keeping ones self In good trim. They
say that dumbbells are better than
plain calisthenics without any ap-
paratus, because they give you some
thing definite to do. These girls have
found 1t great temptation in the
ordinary exercises simply to wave the
arms and legs about without any par
ticular object. Dumbbell drills are
better than raising chairs with one
finger and standing-on-your-head
stunts because the average girl can
10 them, while she often loses her
courage with the impossible exercises.
In one boarding house in Boston,
where a number of business girls
live, there is a dumbbell brigade,
which meets in one OF the girls
rooms every night Each girl comes
IN kimono and armed with a pair OF
lightweight dumbbells. Then they go
through number of simple exercises,
which one of the crowd, who used to
be a college girl, learned in the gym.
The girls all say that they are
having little trouble in refitting their
clothing, as a result of their dumbbell
drill, but they are wonderfully i'm
proved in figure and carriage since
they began work some weeks ago.
Their five exercises are worth know
Ing, especially to girls who are get
ting bit round shouldered from bend
Ing over their desks all winter, so here
they are:
Stand erect with the right foot
slightly in advance. Grasping the
dumbbells firmly, stretch both arms
up as high as possible. Breathe deep
ly. Rise on tiptoe IL you can.
Place the left hand with dumbbell
against the waist. Raise right hand
with dumbbell over the head. Bend
right. Reverse the motions and repeat
them several times. This exercise
gives hexibility to the waist; also
lengthens and tapers It,
First, stand erect. Then bring the
upper part Of the body forward, the
arms holding the dumbbells extended.
Let the head drop forward. Inhale
deeply. Then with slow exhalations
all the while bring the body to an up
right position.
With dumbbells grasped tightly,
stretch both arms upward horizontally.
Bend the arms at the elbows, and
bring the dumbbells back to the shout
ders with a quick and very strong mo-
ton.
Clutch the dumbbells tightly and
bring them vigorously down against
the waist. Then thrust both arms
down, then out, then up with at least
dozen repetitions. After each move
ment, return the hands and dumbbells
to the first position at the waist line
OF course, one should be careful to
use only light dumbbells and to avoid
the temptation to create knotty mus
cles.-Boston Herald.
