Iceberg Lake.

The lakes in Glacier National park
that are fed by glacial water are milk
white. but others are clear and pure
and reflect all the varying aspects of
the sky and clouds above. On clear
day the water is beautifully blue, but
when storm clouds gather it assumes
darker shades. which make it appear
dangerous and forbiduing. One Of the
most attractive lakes in the park is
Iceberg lake, so called because the
glacier at it's edge discharges bergs
into its waters at intervals. after the
manner Of the glaciers found in the
arctic region. The crest of the wall
around this lake is as high above the
water as four buildings like New
Y6rk's skyscrapers atop one another.

communications of the Russian forces
operating north of Bukowina with
those around Lemberg.

Stanislau has been in the possession

The capture of Stanislau is taken

WILSON ACCEPTS
HIS RESIGNATION
Letter to Germany Is Said to
Contain Vigorous Language.

Washington, June 9.-William J.
Bryan has resigned as secretary OF
state and bis resignation has been
accepted by President Wilson to take
effect Immediately.
Mr.. Bryan retires from the Wilson
administration because he is unable
conscientiously to sign the note which
the president is about to dispatch to
Germany. TO attach his signature tc
this communication would, in the
opinion Of Mr.. Bryan, be unfair to
the cause nearest his heart-namely
the prevention of war.
At direction of President Wilson
Robert Lansing, acting secretary OF
state, has signed the note. It has
been rushed into the hands of state
department experts to be coded and
will be on it's way to Berlin by the
time the American public is reading
the startling details of Mr.. Bryan's
refusal to lend his name to it as sec.
rotary of state.
The note, to which Mr.. Bryan was
unable to subscribe, firmly restates
the position of the United States. re.
iteratee President Wilson's previous
demands and calls upon Germany for
a prompt expression as to whether or
not she intends to abide by the prin.
cirles of the international law and
humanity. That it is more vigorous
than the presidents first note to Ger
many is evidenced by the fact that
Mr.. Bryan signed the first, but re.
signed =e+kar than slga tie second.

A perusal of Bulletin No. So of the

pax. ed there was paid in premiums to
companies doing business in Minneso-

loses paid in 1914 amount to $3,667,-

for the 20 years IS $50, 1857 ,069.69. There
is very general impression that there
IS something wrong as to insurance

plenty complaints for the insurance
commissioner to work On as the regu-
lation Of rates nov comes under his
charge, as per a law passed by the last

is not altogether just that the rates
are high, but that there is rank dis

BRYAN RESIGNS AS sEcRETAR!

Secretary Bryan has reslgheu. ne
has done so because his honest conVlc-
lions prevented him signing his "name
to document which he believes might
mean war. Above the yelplng ana
snarling of the press defenders OF mo,
nopoly, from the New York Sun ana
New York World down to the Pioneer
Press, stands the great fact that Bryan
has had the courage of his convictions.
We venture to say that for his coun-
try's good Bryan would stand almost
any humiliation, any insult, and the
newspapers who always reared and
hated him certainly have done their
best to humiliate and ridicule him in
the past two years in an attempt TO
destroy him with the people.
We by no means agree with all that
BRYAN has done since he entered the
cabinet, and we're among those who
thought it mistake for him to accept
the portfolio. However, leaving aside
all legitimate criticism, there are GER
tain things not to be forgotten:
First-The Baltimore convention.
There are those who would like to for
GET it, but it cannot be done.
Secondly Without Bryan there would
have been no tariff legislation.
Third-Without Bryan there would
have been no currency legislation.
Fourth-The thirty peace treaties,
in spite of the tremendous conflict,
will be an enduring monument to his
name.
These are reasons why Bryan g
friends need not feel it necessary to
make apologies. They will regret, and
most sincerely, what has happened.
They will continue to support the ad-
ministration in the momentous matters
of foreign affairs. They will stand oy
the president as every patriotic citizen
should He has heavy burden and
should have loyal support. Weightier
matters than the effect on party of a
division of opinion among GREAT lead
ers are at stake. It is best for all to
. have the tone and temper Of the let
ters which passed between Bryan and
Wilson.

REJOINDER FIRMLY PHRASED
Secretary Of States Action indicates
Latest Note to Berlin Is Of En-

Evening Star.

London. June 1O.-London newspa-
pers interpret Secretary Of State Bry-
ans resignation as an indication that
President Wilson's rejoinder to Ger
many is so firmly phrased that war
between the United States and Ger
many may result.
The news that Bryan had left the
cabinet was regarded as of tremend-
ous importance by the London news
papers. The regular editions of the
morning papers had gone to press
when the first bulletin was flashed
here. The morning papers quickly
made over and gave prominent dis
play to the news from Washington
though it arrived too late for edito-
rial comment.
The early editions Of the evening
papers published the correspondence,
between Secretary Bryan and Presi-
dent Wilson in full. They emphasized
the bearing Bryan's resignation has on
the character of the rejoinder about
to be sent to Berlin.

America has spoken firmly and plainly,

said the Evening Star. these notes
had Bryan's approval so the Secretary
of States present action indicates that
the latest note about to be dispatched
to Berlin is of entirely different tone.
Bryan himself doesn't conceal the
opinion that it may lead to war;"
The Evening Standard says:
"Mr. Bryan's resignation from
President Wilson's cabinet appears to-
foreshadow a more decided American
policy-not necessarily Intervention or
war; It was some vision of this, no
doubt, which led Germany to dispatch
