Roosevelt Ressfaltraalam.
BROKEN BOW, Neb.. Sept. -To the
Edtor of The Bee: Of course, all Nebras
ka na, regardless of political oplnlona or
affiliations, take a commendable pride In
the reception tendered W. J. Bryan on hi
return to hi native land. We are proud
of our fellow cltlsen becaus of th great
eminence he ha attained. Mr. Bryan has
Just cause to be proud of th attention
shown him, but It Is scarcely fair to pre
sume that all those thousands who have
ahouted his pralsss and Joined In his cor
dial welcome are willing to endorse hla
political theories or follow hi leadership.
Some of us have memories reaching back
sixteen year, and those who do not re
member may vread and know a little of
history.
In his speech In New Tork Mr. Bryan
commends President Roosevelt tor hla ac
tive enforcement of the anti-trust law, but
suggests fhsl he Is following the leadership
of democrat rather than republican: that
he I drinking his Inspiration from demo
cratic fountains and not republican.
Th vaat throng of representative demo
crats and cltlsens from all part of the
country gne wild with excitement at thl
sentiment. Carried along by a popular
wave, on the Impulse of the moment un
thinking crowd are se prone to accept and
applaud whatever a popular Idol may say-
but each Individual In the quiet of hi
own home, before he east hi ballot to
turn the reins of the government over to
the democrat will doubtless recall that
thla anti-trust law was Introduced by a
republican, who had much to do with
tha "crime of '71" and who has been much
abuaed by these same democratic leader
a an enemy of th republic. Thla law was
paased by a republican congress and was
signed by a republican president; further
more, it ha been on the statute book of
the United State for something over six
teen year, during a part of which time
wo had a democratic president, a demo
cratic senate, a. democratic house, of which
Bryan himself waa a member; but the rec
ord doea not disclose th fact that any
of them ever made any attempt to enforce
this law a Roosevelt haa don. Repub
licans are glad to Join with the democrats
In their applause of President Roosevelt,
but they will not forget that John Sher
man was the author of tha antl-truat law
and that It was a republican measure and
that It waa left to a republican president
to enforce It.
Remembering thl. It la extremely doubt
ful If any considerable number of them will
turn from the party which doea things to
one whlcTl Is not, and never has been, a
doer, to one which has always been long on
promises, but exceedingly short on per
formance. F, M. CURRIE.
Hears- at High School,
OMAHA, Sept. -4. To the Editor of The
Bee: Being Interested In the affairs of our
high school, since my children are mem
bers of that Institution, and being myself
a graduate of a college in Bohemia, I wish
to discus briefly th disadvantages of
changing the hour at th high school, a
was proposed by one of the member of
the Board of Education, ,
In Austrian, and German college the
student are kept at their lessona from
S a. m. to U m and from 1 to t p. m. This
I certainly overtaxing 'on their minds.
and the reault In both physical strength
and endurance can be noted when com
paring the European and American stu
dent. , . .
To begin high school at I a m. and close
at 1 p. m.. without giving th pupils .any
study hour between, will not prove suc
cessful for th following reason:
First Th majority of th children' are
far from the' school and It would prove a
great hardship for' them to be there at S
or a . little before.
Second It would be too great a strain on
the pupils to have five hours of work with
out any stqdy or lunch hour between.
' Third According to the present system
the pupil have on and a half hour of
atudy at school and the rest at home. With
the new system they would have all their
studying at home. They wilt not atudy
during the afternoon, for there are many
thlnga- which will attract them and keep
them from their work. They will find It
hard to get all of their lessona don In
the evening and they will come back to
school with their lessons half completed.
I therefor propos that there should be
no chang In th hours fit the high school,
with the exception of th lunch hour,
which I think should be lengthened from
half an hour to forty-five minutes. Tours
respectfully, a A. BERANEK.
