From the Philadelphia Inquirer
There have been multiplying evi-
dences that Nature, however gen
erous she may have been to Will
lam Jennings Bryan in the be-
stowal of her gifts, never intended
him to occupy the position of Sec
rotary Of State in the Cabinet OF
the President Of the United States.
This is a post, above all others,
which requires unusual tactfulness,
knowledge of the usages Of diplo-
macy, and a keen and delicate
sense of the fitness of things.
Many persons, who have no de-
sire to be unfair to Mr.. Bryan,
have gravely doubted whether he
possessed any Of these qualifica-
lions, and his latest announce
ment that he proposes to lay down
the duties of his high office for six
weeks in order to devote that time
to a profit-making tour Of the
Chautauqua lecture circuit VIII
absolutely confirm their misgivings.

Lecturing Instead of
Tending to His Duty.
IRON the Cleveland LeGder.J

From the Cleveland LeGder)
Affairs in Mexico, II not In
Washington, appear to be in a con-
dition requiring careful handling.
The President has returned to the
capital from his Summer holiday.
Utmost solicitude for national In
terests would seem to necessitate
the presence of the head of the De-
partment of State. Instead, we see
him far away addressing Chautau-
qua audiences under the stern COM
pulsion of necessity-tne homely,
universal necessity Of earning a
living.
Secretary Bryan should now go
a step further in candor and tell
the people how much 1t will cost
them to engage his entire atten-
ton to their affairs.

A Little Sarcasm
from Columbus, o.

(From the Columbus (Ohto) Eve-

1t seems to be taken for granted
that no other nation would pur-
posely "act up" in the good old
Summer time and make it neces-
sary for the department to do
something.
That may be an unwise risk to
take, but what do the critics wantf
Do they think that Just because
they have to remain in Washing

Department offiaials should also
linger7 And the people at a score

"A Dangerous Man-Why
Did He Enter Cabinet?"

From the Boston Traueler.)
AS a leader of the plain people,
standing on the outside and telling
what ought to be done, william
Jennings Bryan was for years in a
class by himself. AS a Cabinet Off
cial who is leaving grave duties to
be attended to by his subordinates,
while he explains that he must lee
ture in order that his annual in
come may not fall below a speci-
fed total, he Is a melancholy figure.
He is more than that-he Is a dan
gerous man.
Why did Bryan enter the Cabi-
metz Why is he remaining there?
The Acknowledgement discredited
himself In the California matter.
The Secretary of State is doing
more than that-he is discrediting
the country. He should resign or
attend to business,

(From the Chicago Daily Net0sJ
As for the compulsion, the eco

Mr.. Bryan to this course, it should
cause Uncle Sam to feel a measure
Of remorse or some similar emo

he now gayly deserts the work
for which the United States pays
him $4,000 a year to discharge
his rhetoric and collect dollars on
the road.
Since Mr.. Bryan seems to have
no sense of public obligation, of
official responsibility or Of loyalty
to the Administration upon which
his evasion of his functions has
already brought ridicule and is In
more than fair way to bring con-
tempt; since the mighty mouthed
Democratic protagonist of all the

about it?

(Fom TIE Boston Herald.)

From tie Boston HcraId.)
Viewed in its most favorable
light, Mr.. Bryan's course remains
wholly indefensible. The New
York Evening Post remarks that
Bryan's cutting of an interview
with the Japanese Ambassador, to
make connections with a Chautau-
qua engagement, did not look well.
The story, as 1t Travelled over the
world, would do our diplomatic es-
tablishment no good. 1t would add
nothing to our dignity as nation,
or to our standing before the civ.
ilized world.
All this Is incontrovertible. When

(From the Baltimore NetosJ

(From the Baltimore Netcs.)
After two months observation
of Mr.. Bryan's way Of tearing
about the country, taking wild
automobile rides in order to keep
his engagements, appearing on the
platform with any and everybody,
we a e quite certain that the av-
erage American citizen is ready to
conclude that Mr.. Bryan Is on the
wrong tack and that he should
either quit the lecture platform or
quit his Government Job.

there will be humping steam pipes
in town and glistening pumpkins
in the frosted fields Of the coun-
tryside. But 1t has not been such
bad season for our canny Secre-
tary of State.
A mild estimate puts his lecture
returns since last March at some
thing over Eve thousand dollars.
Altogether 1t should not be
discontented face which Mr.. Bryan
turns officeward. One can do plenty
Of things with FIVE thousand in
velvet"
cares far less for the brow Of labor,
save as material for an oratorical
peroration, than he cares for the
Bryan feathered nest, the Bryan

This must be the conclusion of
the people as a whole. We are
curious to know what President
Wilson's conclusion will be.
