A paean Of Qualification Of Republican

the older monarchical forms, which suffer
by comp arison, was the substance Of Q
statement given out by Secretary Bryan
yesterday afternoon. It had been aAtic-
ipated that he would seize the opportunity
to tell the newspaper men. to whom the
statement was handed. just what, IL any.
changes are to be made in the policies Of
the former administration regarding Mex

perhaps the Panama tolls question. The
Secretary. however. preferred to deal in
the abstract and generalize. and, holding
consistency to be jewel. to refer with
pride to one of his deliverances thirteen
years ago as illustrating his present men
tai attitude toward the great issues of
the day.. He was for peace then. he Is
for peace now, and for the. right of self
