BONAP ARIES REPLY.
Attorney General Answers Some of
Bryan's Remarks.

Baltimore, Sept. 19.-Attorney Gem
eral Boneparte, who was in Baltimore,
today made answer to the charge
which William j. Bryan has been re-
peating frequently of late that the
present administration had not squar-
ed itself with its promise by putting
some trust magnate in Jail.
From the time 1 became attorney
general to the president" said Mr..
BOnaparte, ut has, been the earnest
desire of the president as we'll as my
own to do that very thing in a prop
er case. I have been compelled how
ever to advise against such a prosecu-
ton in every instance suggested be-
cause 1 did not believe it would be
successful and 1 did not wish to give
the defendant the benefit of an un-
merited white wash.
I'm the case of nearly all the great
trusts the combinations and con-
solicitations to which individuals
prominent in their management were
parties as such, took place from 10
to 20 years ago and even if they oc-.
CURED after the enactment of the
Sherman antitrust law, had long
since been barred by limitations when
I assumed my present office. You
will remember that with respect to
crime against the United States the
period of limitation is only three
years.
I'm our report upon the postal frauds
Mr.. Holmes Conrad and 1 suggested
that this period ought to be heightened
and the president so recommended, but
the congress took no action on the
subject. 1t is, of course. true that Of
ficers of corporations can be held re-
sponsible criminally for corporate acts
in which they are proved beyond a rea-
sonable doubt to have individually
participated; but while it is compare
lively easy to prove the act of the
corporation it is usually very difficult
if not altogether impossible to obtain
legal evidence to convict individual Of
ficers as participants.
While therefore 1 am we'll aware
that certain newspapers and other
purveyors to the public of what Speak
er Cannon calls wind and ink have
been crying out loudly for some trust
magnate to be put behind the bars l
have always found this advice to be of
the same character as that generally
given by bystanders to the smaller boy
in street fight, namely; Go in and
win.' which Dickens wisely remarks,
is an excellent thing to do when one
can do it. but not an especially good
thing to try to do when one can't"

ABOUT THAT TELEPHONE BILL

The following from the State Repub-
lican Is OF interest
Auditor General Bradley is fairer
than Gov. Warner, In that he gives
Attorney General Bird the credit that
is due him for first urging the passage
of bill to tax telephone and telegraph
companies upon an ad valorem basis.
Although IL Is we'll known that Gov.
Warner consented to urge the last leg
islature TO pass the measure only after
repeated and urgent requests from Mr..
Bird. the governor is now claiming all
the credit for his proposed legislation. =
Behind this bill lies pretty story.
Attorney General Bird was. as the
Republican says. the father of the
movement to.tax telephones and tele-
graphs upon an ad valorem basis and
TO that end had drafted bill and sub
mitted IL toGovernor Warner who with
held ii from the legislature so long that
the Attorney General feared he would
not send it in. So, Mr.. Bird went to
AN influential upper peninsula senator
and asked him to present a resolution
in the senate asking the Governor TO
send in the draft Of the bill The mat
ter LEAKED" and that afternoon the
Governor sent the draft In with a
special message asking the senate to
pass the bill, expecting that the box
err" would kin IL. But the boxers
did exactly the reverse They passed
the bill under suspension Of the rules
and sent IL over TO the house where the
Governors friends finally succeeded in
killing IL.

There seems TO be considerable re-
sentiment among the people Of Michigan
against those in the ranks OF schoo
officials who essay to defeat the adop-
tion Of the new constitution because OF
some far-fetched Joker" which the
pedagogues claim 10 see in the section
pertaining TO school monies. and this
resentment Is justifable. The delegates
to the convention worked hard TO give
Michigan a good, clean, up-to-date
constitution and II is agreed that they
succeed in their efforts. They couldn t
satisfy everybody's within nor could
they in the limited time at their dis
posal eliminate ambiguity, from each
phrase and IL is simply little. and a
very little. ambiguity in the phrase

The people Of Michigan think great
deal Of their schools they think great
deal of their school men but they don t
set them up as czars whose every exac-
tion must be met. All wise school
teachers will turn in and help ratify
the constitution and trust TO the good
sense and generosity of Michigan people
to rectify any little defect.there may be
in the wording OF the. section dealing
