BRYAN pENouNcEs EXEMPTION.
Writes editorial For commonsr Up
holding Presidents Policy.

Washington. April 1.-TWO terlnic
broadsides were discharged by the ad-
ministration at the heart OF the oppo-
sition to the repeal of the exemption
clause of the Panama canal tolls law.
The first was in the form of pow
erful editorial written by Secretary OF
state William Jennings Bryan for MS
paper, the Commoner. and given out as
a public statement here. This state
ment answers all the arguments mace
by the opposition, most of when, MI.
Bryan declares. appeal to pre)ud'ce
rather than to reason" He denies any
surrender. to Great Britain and cites
the fact that in the dispute over tne
We,land canal Canada admitted the
same concessions asked OF the Uniteo
states by Great Britain now.
He SAYS there we're two conhlctins
blanks in the Baltimore platform anu
asserts that the tolls exemption clAuee
was q cloak for the giving OF q SHY
subsidy. Had the convention known
now the exemption clause had oeen
passed bv congress. he adds. the plank
would not have been indorsed.
Now. Mr.. Bryan adds. chances nase
come which make il imperative IS :
matter of nationsi honor that cohsi
sunnort Mr.. Wilson. In summing UP
MI BRYAN says there are only ~ ~
questions involving in the repeal AAe
are: 80 demo.
cratic party to abandon its historic ~
sition and become the advocate VI
sides and bounttes? and 8.
second, II it is Desirable. VIVA. -
the democratic party wiling 70
.ifice in international presuee aa a
world influence in order to secure .ns
advantage which these subsidies pFen'
ise to a few people?
NJ BRYAN was q member OF the reso-
lutions COMMITTEES OF the Baitlmo'e
convention. and his statement TO-DAY
was his first explanation dealing WIN
the conflicting planks. One plank hs
eays. declared for the encouragement ..
the merchant marine provided II couio
be developed without imposing aou' :,
tional burdens upon the people ano
without bounty Of subsidies from the
nublic treasures" The second PLANK
declared for the exemption Of American
coastwise vessels from the Panams
tolls. Mr.. Bryan calls the tolls PLANK
the little plank" and tho pronounce
ment on bountles the larger plank.
"By what ru,e can the little plank be
made binding and the larger one
nored ?. he asks. 1.-THE secret is TO Dc
found in the fact that the little PLANK
carefully cor ceals the means by which
i, is to be carried out. Had the woro
subsidy or bounty been inserted TINS
little plank could not have secured 'ne
endorsement Of the convention.
Mr.. Bryan asserts that the supporters
OF the exemption clause have attempted
| in their arguments by crying "surren-
der to Great Britain" to appeal &c
prejudice rather than to reason. 1fsa'
Britain, he says, has simply called at
tenfion 10 the terms OF the Hay
lPauncefor.e treaty and asked for aroi'
tration on the question Of construction
"The repeal o., the law cannot DC
construed as 2 construction .... IN ., 0n

states to treat the question in thai

II. @. Wells Predicts German
Reverse i'm Present Conflict

Germany and Austria are doomed 10
defeat in this war. 1t may not be a
catastrophe defeat, though even that
is possible, but il will he defeat.
There is no destiny in the stars and
every sign is false IL this is not so.
"They have provoked an overwhelm-
ing combination of enemies. They have
moderated France. They are hamper
ed by bad social and military tradi-
lions. The German is not naturally u
good soldier. lie is orderly and obedi-
ent, but not nimble or quick-witted.
Hence his sole considerable military
aChievent is his not very lengthy
march to Paris in 1871.
The conditions of modern warfare
tionized and in direction that subor-
dinates massed fighting and unintelli-
gent men to the rapid initiative OF in
dividualized soldiers.
French Will Hold Own.
ION the other hand, since those years
OF disaster, the Frenchman has learned
the lesson of humility. He IL prepared
now somberly for a similar struggle
His is the gravity that precedes aston
iehins victories. In the air, In the open
doubtful II any one fully realizes the
superiority of his quality to the Ger
man.
This sudden attack may take him
back for week or so, though doubt
even that but in the end, | think, he
will hold his own even without us, and
with US | venture to prophesy within
three months from now his tri-color
will be over the Rhine, and, even sup
pose his line gets broken by the first
rush. even then | do not see how the
Germans are to get to Paris or any
where near Paris.
Il do not see how, against the
strength OF modern offensive and the
singing power OF an intelligent enemy
in retreat, OF which we had a little
foretaste in South Africa. the exploit
OF Sedan can be repeated.
"A retiring German army, on the
other hand, will be far less formidable
than a retiring French army because
there is less devil in it, because 1t is
made up OF men taught To obey In
masses, because its intelligence is con-
centrated in old, autocratic officers, be-
cause ii is dismayed when ii breaks
ranks.
The German army is everything the
conscriptionists dreamt OF making our
people. 1t is, in fact, an army about
twenty years behind the requirements
