PARAGRAPHS.

Ex-Piesident Eliot Of Harvard
University, in a recent address
charges Secretary Bryan Of paying
his old political debts with offices
in the gift of his department. 1t
must be confessed that the charges
seem to be well founded. Some OF
the recent appointments that are
supposed to have emanated from the
State Department have been crit"
cised at home and have been un-
satisfactory abroad. Taxing it all
in all, Secretary Bryan is not max
ing a real hit IN his present position.
HIS insistence in regard to his lec-
ture engagements was not popular,
to say the least, and now comes the
Eliot charges, which are worse
The present secretary Of state does
not bulk up to the size Of a Seward,
