Do you remember the lazy fellow who used to sit

crack lots of jokes at the of lank and

became president of the United States and thous

to make fun of Bill McAdoo back in the home town.

Editorial Opinion
RESIGNATION OF
SECRETARY BRYAN

The resignation of William Jen-
nings Bryan as secretary of state in
the cabinet of President Wilson is the
biggest piece of political news since
the announcement of the election of
Woodrow Wilson as President in the
fall of 1912 We believe that Mr.
Bryan has never enjoyed the position
which he accepted from President
Wilson. OF all public offices that of
secretary of state carries duties and
requires action that would be dis
tasteful to an idealist and theorist
and these traits are both character
istic of Mr.. Bryan.
Mr.. Bryan is regarded as a man of
pure motives and one whose life has
been of the most exemplary character
He is a great orator, eloquent and
forceful in speech, but his admins
tration of the foreign. office of this
country has been regarded as weak
from the beginning and this belief we
expected to see recorded in the future
history of the country.
| Having filed the great office of sec
Rotary of state for a season, Bryan
will become more magnifed as a
star on the Chataqua platform,
which may be the limit of his promi-
Enence in the future. He has been
mentioned as a probable candidate for
President on the prohibition ticket
next year, but we do not expect to
see him go that length in the. prohi-
bition. cause. though he may $be re-
garded as man who will go to the
full limit of his strength for cause,
once he is drawn. to it jas means of
raising the standard Of citizenship.
He is man of fixed opinion and de-
termination as his long fight with
some of the democratic political
bosses has demonstrated.
Who will be chosen now to the po-
sition of secretary of state will be-
the important question: until the posi-
ton is filled, but it may be regarded
as sure that President Wilson will not
pick a weaker or less competent man
for the position than tht one who
has resigned Douglas International.

PARTING is SUCH SWEET SORROW.


The expected has happened. William Jennings
Bryan Secretary of State the past two years in
Wilson administration, has rendered his resigna
ton insisted upon his resignation being accept
ed. The only surprise occasioned is that such &C
ton was long delayed. Col. w. ]. Bryan, like
another Colonel in American politics. is imbued
with the idea of his own Importance and wisdom.
Mr. Bryan believes that his political vision is
little bit clearer than any other living American
statesman and following his accustomed course,
others refuse bow to his will and dictates,
he becomts boter and purposes to set himself up
as a leader New Thought in international rela-
lions and sounds the bugle blast for volunteers
der banner. For we believe William
Jennings has reckoned without his followers. At
a time when the American people, regardless of poll
teal affliation are standing squarely behind the
President in his able and patriotic efforts to guide
the ship through the troubled waters of be-
setting international complications his chief officer
has deserted, making the Presidents task diff
cult and addition creating the feeling that the
American people divided in their support of the
Presidents policy abroad. The American people
will be slow to rally to standard at this time
regardless who waves 1T aloft. If Mr.. Bryan has
taken this opportunity to launch his 1916 campaign
Gus occasion could hardly be imagined *.

RRYAN,s RESIGNATION.

Both the prefer and the swift ac-
|ceptance of the resignation of William
Jennings Bryan as Secretary of State
surely will be acclaimed universally
as highly desirable His official eff,
Placement is attended with a signff-
canoe which looms big on the present
political horizon of this country al
though not clearly, in the absence of
public Information concerning init
mate circum stances that are closely
guarded within the exclusive precincts
of Washington officialdom.
While events are bound to follow
so quickly on the heels of his retire
ment as to make prophecy perhaps in
judicious, it cannot be otherwise
than that President Wilson has decid-
ed upon an International policy OF
such affirmativeness, if not serene ag-
gressiveness, that the neutralizing eff

Cabinet had to be eliminated. -Bisbee

HORSE OF ANOTHER COLOR.

When William Jennings Bryan, a few months.

Hunt that the passage of the eighty per cent law
would embarass the State Department in dealing
with international questions Governor proudly

THE pAN-AMERlcAN CONFERENCE

"A giagantic shipping combination the greatest
ever conceived in the history of the world, with
capital Of hundreds of millions of dollars and with
the Governments of South and Central America
well as that of tht United States Of the
controlling interests, may be the outcome of the
Pan-American financial conference now in session IL
washdgton, D. G.
IF the United States possessed adequate
Merchant Marine this country would be enjoying the
most stupendoes and far-reaching business boom
that was ever known. We could sell abroad least
million dollars ($1O0 OOO) per month
more than selling (Which is $25yOoO.OOO) if
had the ships to carry the goods.
1t is believed that tremendous merchant marine
will be the result of this conference. South and
Central America want of goods and have
the ships to carry them and ntither have they.
Brazil and Argentine have just established mer-
chant marine between countries and this it
is still inadequate.
President Wilson in addressing this great confer
ence electrified the audience when he declared that
if prvatt capitol does not provide adequate mer-
chant marine and provide 1T quickly the United
States Government must This statement elici
tated thunderous applause from the conference. The
great empire of Germany which could be set the
state of Texas and then would not cover it by fifty
five thousand square miles, has by it's enormous Mer
chant Marine maintained a population Of about
seventy million people.
Great Britain has only hundred and twenty
one thousand square miles, it is not half as large
as Texas, largest export trade of any
nation earth, larger than either the United States
or Germany, which is maintained by her enormous
exports through her Merchant Marine, which gives
employment to her 45,OOO,OOo inhabitants.
If the capitalists of this country have not made
a healthy start in this direction before September
1st it is being urged that President Wilson should
Immediately call special session of Congress in

ing the United States Government to buy. build. and

lied in that territory were pronounced

The commission held that the evil
dence In the case, In which nearly
fifty roads were involved, and which
vance rate case, showed substantially
the following:,
That since 1900 the railroads have
passenger service for convenience and
safety at great expense.
That passenger service conditions DO
not permit of economies possible IN
the freight service, and that the In
creased costs not offset by these econ
omies are entitled TO consideration.
That passenger service in the West
ern territory is less profitable than
freight service. and that the existing
rates are lower than those in the
South, East and West. but that there
is some justification for that.
The decision repeats the findings IN
the recent freight rates cases that the
railroads have felt the increased costs
Of living, and recites that the puohc
has the right TO expect adequate COM
