Good and Evil.

We often try in vain to cut up our
errors by the roots, to fight evil hand
to hand on it's own ground, where 1t
has us at disadvantage, whereas our
most sure way to victory is by devel-
oping and fortifying the good that is in
us. We have but certain measure
of strength and activity; as much of
this as is added to the good is taken
from the evil-Mme Swetchine.

America would not have Mir. Bryan do other than reiterate his position and step gracefully down from the cabinet when his beliefs come in conflict with him whose judgment is depended upon to guide the nation. Perhaps Mir. Bryan's policy Is as were number of other of his policies of two decades ago, too advanced for it's time. The former secretary, however, has been one of those peculiarly treated persons who has lived to see principles sugges- ted by himself and which caused his own defeat, later accepted by the pub lie without question as their force IS apparent and time brings them to people who have become accustomed to their teaching.
 But Mr Bryan had forgotten in his idealism that one nation cannot alter the tacit understandings between na- tions that have endured for centuries without the protest of those other na- tions. Neither can a violation of those principles pass unnoted by this govern ment without effort to maintain them

MT. Bryan's Statement.

Mir. Bryan < statement k character istic and is what might have heen eH= pected of man as courageous a- he has shown himself to be, as high minded, as ultra idealistie as he has come to be known There Is not one word in the statement the public would have otherwise and keep its good opin- ion of the secretary as q clean man and one who follows more closely per haps in his private life, than any other public official the doctrines of That Prince of Peace at whose feet the secretary long ago laid tribute.
 MT. Bryan had declared himself a paciticist in no uncertain terms. His declaration had gone so far that other nations had taken his statement to mean peace at any price. They had banked, even, that the United States would not insist upon a positive stand upon question which might embroil this country in dispute with other countries upon the belief that SO long as Mir. Bryan were secretary the United States would not go to war
 European nations have read into the presidents note of May II, dispatched concerning the sinking of the Lusitania, and the resignation of MT Bryan as result of an insistence upon the note, that the United States Is upon the verge" of declaration of hosti!ites Fortunately for the United States. however, the mob in the streets of London, Paris, Berlin or Rome does not loose the authority which plunges this nation in a worldwide conflict. We are quite amply able 10 care for our own interests and to interpret the meaning of those interests in our own fashion,
 Mir Bryan's statement discloses that he and president Wilson are both seek ing the same end, peace but bF diff ferent methods. The views of the president would have coincided with those of his secretary concerning the advisablity of a cour; of investigation concerning the status of American rights of those aboard the Lusitania but for one thing. That thing was the failure of Germany to guarantee that while an inquiry was in progress. sub marine warfare such as was waged against the Lusitania, the Cushing. the Gultlight and other ships should be stopped. This country had insisted, however, that the rights of neutrals aboard noncombatant ships could not be imperiled. Upon that term of the note the president had made it plain there could be no compromise,
 Mir Bryan is quite right in his decla ration that Germany always has been a nation friendly to the United States. The purpose of the United States is to continue it so. The United States has reiterated it's position that it seeks no territory of any other nation, that its sole policy is an adherence to principle and that it is symbolic of the rights of humanity. There can be no conflict with Germany upon that score
