Western Newspaper Union News Service.

has resigned that office and insisted
upon immediate acceptance of the res
lgn2tion because of his radical dif-
ference of opinion with the admins
tration regarding its Chinese policies.
President Wilson Immediately nc-
cepted the resignation.
Mr.. Wilson, like all assistant secre-
taries in the various departments, ten
dered his resignation as a matter of
upon the latters assumption of office.
Mr. Wilson was requested to continue
in his place until il should be con-
venient for the president TO name his
successor. He consented to do so to
accommodate Secretary Bryan in his
desire TO make his present visit to
Lincoln, Neb.
The issue of the statement from the
White House defining the administra,
tons attitude regarding the Chinese
loan negotiations is believed to have
been regarded by Assistant Secretary
Wilson as sufficient to justify him in
requesting to be relieved at once froG!
duty.
After telegraphic notice to Secre-
tary Bryan of his intentions, Mr.. vii.
son dispatched a note to the
white House tearmiring his own serv.
ice, and President Wilson Immediately
designated Second Assistant Secreary
Adee TO act as secretary of state dur.
ing Secretary Bryan's present alb
sence.
President Wilson replied TO Mr.. Viii
sons resignation:
My Dear Sir-Allow me to acknowl-
edge the receipt of your letter of yes
terday and to say that | accept your
resignation, as you suggested, as OF
the present date"

To Appoint Young Men.

Washington.-Attorney General Nc
Reynolds, who is weighing the quail
fications of the many applicants for
vacant federal judgeships, informed
callers that an applicant more than so
years old had a serious handicap to
overcome. While this is not a hard
and fast rule, the age question, it is
claimed, will receive consideration
in connection with all appointments
to such an extent "the young men"
below 60 have a much better chance.
The rule was followed by President
Taft and Attorney General Wicker

Must Collect Taxes.

Baton Rouge.-Those saloon pro-
prietors, who operate a negro and a
white saloon in the same building will
have TO pay two licenses to the state.
This is the ruling of State Supervising
Auditor Mcfarland, who, in a letter
to some of the tax collectors, has
called upon them to explain why two
licenses were not collected from those
saloon keepers who operate two sa-
looms under the same roof, one for
whites and the other for negroes. Mr..
Mcfarland insists that the licenses
must be collected. The list from the
collector OF internal revenue shows
that these saloons paid two internal
revenue licenses, while they have been
paying but one to the state and parish.
