How Bryan'S Tour
Strikes Britain

From the London Daily MGH.)
The spectacle of Mr. w. J.
Bryan, the Secretary Of State, TAX
ing turns before audiences with a
troupe of Tyrolean yodlers, jug
glers and ballet dancers is occa-
stoning much pain to his critics,
who accuse him of compromising
hopeleSsly the national dignity. Mr..
Bryan himself perceives nothing
Objectionable in the enterprise of
his managers, who for the tour he
Is now making, have engaged
other talent" with which to
Rmuse the audiences OF the Sec
rotary of State.
When Mr.. Bryan arrived an hour
late on his lecture platform at
Salisbury, Md, the seven brightly
dressed Tyrolean girl yodlers in
stantly retired. The audience rep
resented receipts to the amount OF
$3.50, of which Bryan takes half.
The lecturing of the Secretary
OF State appears to have added
considerably to the difficulty which
Ambassadors experience in gain
ing admission to his presence for
the discussion of international af-
fairs.
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1913-09-28

According to the New York Tri-
bune six diplomats, including the
Japanese Ambassador, were wait
ing to see Mr.. Bryan on his regu-
lar reception day, when he sud
denly discovered it was his train
time. He thereupon hurried to
catch the train for Leesburg, Va,
and the waiting six Ambassadors
were told to come again.
Viscount Chinda called again on
the following day, but Mr.. Bryan
then tried to catch another train
and could not see him.
The Tribune relates that some
time ago, when the French Am
bassador called by appointment on
Mr.. Bryan, the Ambassador was
tucked away in the diplomatic re-
ception room and completely for
gotten.
The Ambassador waited one hour
and half and then found that the
Secretary of State had gone to
luncheon.
These incidents are much dis
cussed in diplomatic circles. Mr..
Bryan's reply to his critics takes
the form of a reminder that his
lectu es are of an entirely educa-
tional character.

From the COrTtere della Serd, MtlGn.J
We shall never fully realize the
great difference betewen American
civilization, ever progressing be-
tween two immense oceans, and
European civilization with its mar
row views and prejudlces. We
are the slaves of tradition.
In Europe a minister Of foreign
affairs, when he Is not occupied
with some difficult international
political affair, Is only too glad to
go to his Summer residence and
study history or geography, two
studies much neglected in our uni
versities, while in America a Sec
rotary of State, finding a few
leisure moments, is willing to be-
come an attraction in a Strolling
vaudeville show.
In fact, Mr.. Bryan, Secretary Of
Foreign Affairs in the United States,
as soon as the japanese and Next
can questions we're only temper
arily disposed of, allied himself
with an acrobat and a sleight Of
hand man, some yodlers and clowns,
to make a tour and give lectures,
for which he is handsomely paid.
Bryan is an old-time Democrat,
and when one is once a Demo
crat he will always be one and
make profit by it. AS Secretary
of State he has only $4,000 sal

airy, very little sum to live on,
but it is also true that he Ia an
anti-alcohol man, and this saves
money Oh wines especially when he
has a few Ambassadors as guests.
At the present he is giving lee
lures % the accompaniment Of merry
widow waltzes and . few card
tricks, but after a while the pub
lie will get tired of hearing a lot
of meaningless words and his
shows will not be 30 well attended.
As a resourceful man Mr.. Bryan
might try his luck as q peddIer.
Why could he not try to sell 1000
safety razors to Japan at az per
cent discount for cash, or to arbI-
trate the fate Of alot Of second
hand clothes between Portugal and
the United States7
Every one must live. And It is
absurd to ask that in America, a
Democratic Secretary of State, live
on such a small salary as $4,000
a year. Unless Congress votes
him a large increase it forces
Bryan to the alternative Of looking
for another position, or the pros
pect Of dying of hunger.
AS increasing q salary is I'M
American, Mr.. Bryan must needs
find other ways to supplement his
income.

difference between Prussia and
Germany. He seemed In some
doubt, so the story goes, as to
whether Prussia was in Germany
or Germany in Prussia.
While visiting Constantinople at
about the same, time, Bryan is said
to have confused Bucharest with
Budapest and to have made in con-
sequence some bulls which plunged
the members of the Constantinople
diplomatic corps into paroxysms
of mirth.
The view held here is that if
President Wilson and the country
at large condone the course of the
r.ost conspicuous member of the
Cabinet, Americans generally can
not expect to have their nation
hold the respect that is its due
as a factor in diplomacy.

Much Mirfh in Berlin
Over Bryan S Tactics

Berlin, Sept. 21.-What are
called Secretary Bryan's "Chau-
tauqua circus antics" are the sub
ject Of much mirth here. He is
described by serious newspapers as
variety star" and Clown" and is
the butt of ridicule on all sides.
All sorts of stories are finding
their way into print in Germany
regarding Bryan's alleged unfit
ness to hold a position similar to
those with which European states
men identify the names of Grey,
Delcasse, Lansdowne, Cambon,
Aehrenthal, Kiderlen-Wachter, and
John Hay.
One newspaper asserts that it
has authority for the statement
that up to a few years ago Bryan's
ignorance of foreign affairs extend
ed even to a lack of elementary
knowledge of European geography.
He is said to have asked Am

pose that public business cannot
be efficiently transacted by persons

man who a few year, ago was a re-

very fair profession in most coun-
tries, but it is not and ought not

What dreadful fellows these
paCifists are!
But we must not laugh. This
good example teaches us that to
read Tolstoy is one thing and to
conduct the affairs OF a great ma
ton IS another When man rises
to power, he finds himself face to
face with realities which were but
vaguely perceived when they were
theorized about in his hours of

1t is singular paradox in

Of politicians who in foreign af-
fairs are the most amateurish of
amateurs, with a Secretary Of
State at the head of them who is
too much occupied in delivering
popular lectures to devote all his
time to his official duties.
The United States, as we have all
learned lately, distrusts amateur
ishness in sports. 1t knows that II
you want to win in any contest you
must fely on the expert and take
care that this expert knows all
the details of his business. 1t is
therefore rather surprising that
the United States does not apply
the same admirable principle to
the conduct of its public affairs.

TO THE MERCHANTS OF MOSCOW;

In another column the Star-Mirror
reprints from the New York Journal
that portion of an editorial which re-
lates to those newspapers of which
the Star-Mirror is one-the country
dailies.
The tribute is the more appreciated
because, as the writer states, the owner
of the Journal, Mr.. Hearst, does not
own country daily and doesn't expect
to own one.
1t is doubly valuable as a comment
because Mr.. Hearst does not only own
the New York Journal, but the largest
and most important individually owned
chain of newspapers in the United
States, and one which extends in it's
field from New York to San Francisco,
from Boston to Los Angeles, and the
country town is prone to acknowledge
that metropolitan advertising pays
while denying its own papers the right
to prove their selling power.
Such an ownership gives the Hearst
interest rare insigt into the value of
