MR.. BRYAN'S NOTE OF RESIGNATION

THE RESIGNATION.

Here is Secretary Bryan's letter of res
ignation:
The Secretary of State. Washington,
June 8, 1915
My Dear Mr.. President-lt is with sin
cere regret that have reached the con-
elusion that | should return to you the
commission of Secretary of State with
which you honored me at the beginning
of your Administration.
Obedient to your sense of duty and
actuated by the highest motives. you
have prepared for transmission to the
German Government note in which l
cannot join without violating what
deem to be an obligation to my country,
and the issue involved is of such moment
that to remain member of the Cabinet
would be as unfair to you as it would be
to the cause which is nearest my heart.
namely, the prevention of war
therefore respectfully tender my res
ignation to take effect when the note is
sent unless you prefer an earlier hour.
Alike desirous of reaching peaceful
solution of the problems arising out of
the use of submarines against merchant
men, we find ourselves differing rrecon-
cilably as to the methods which should
be employed.
1t falls to your lot to speak officially
for the nation consider it to be none
the less my duty to endeavor, as pr-
vate citizen, to promote the ends which
you have in view by means which you do
not feel at liberty to use.
In severing the intimate and pleasant
relations which have existed between us
during the past two years permit me to
acknowledge the profound satisfaction
which it has given me to be associated
with you in the important work which
has come before the State Department
and to thank you for the courtesies en-
tended.
With the heartiest good wishes for
your personal welfare and for the sue
cess of your Administration, l am, nv

Very truly yours,

The White House. June 8, 1915.
My Dear Mr.. Bryant accept your
resignation only because you insist upon
its acceptance; and accept it with much
more than deep regret-with feeling of
personal sorrow.
Our two years of close association have
been very delightful to me. Our judg-
ments have accorded in practically every
matter of official duty and of public pol
icy until now; your support of the work
and purposes of the Administration has
been generous and loyal beyond praise
your devotion to the duties of your great
office and your eagerness to take advan-
tage of every great opportunity for SER
vice it afforded has been an example to
the rest of us you have earned our affcc-
tiOnate admiration and friendship. Even
now we are not separated in the object
we seek, but only in the method by which
we seek it.
1t is for these reasons that my feeling
about your retirement from the Secre-
taryship of State goes so much deeper
than regret. | sincerely deplore it. Our
objects are the same and we ought to
pursue them together.

In some quarters this sentence
was construed as plain intimation
that Mr. Bryan feared that one of the
possibilities of the note which rresi-

The other construction was that

PROHIBITION AND
PEACE HIS SLOGAN

WASHINGTON, June s.--official Wash
ington was profoundly impressed to-
night with the political possibilities
that are foreshadowed by the sever
ance OF the ties that bound the for
tunes Of Woodrow Wilson and Will
i'm J. Bryan.
Prediction is made that the break
between President Wilson and Secrc-
tary Bryan will project itself far into
the politics of the future and result
in as wide a Nreach in the Democratic
party as the circumstances that led to
the downfall OF the Republican party
in 1912. That the consequences will BE-
as serious from a party standpoint
is generally feared by Democratic
leaders.
Mr.. Wilson and Mr.. Bryan olme to-
gcther as a result Of one OF those
mysterious happenings in politics that
sometimes unite men mutually an
tagonistic in habit. thought and prin-
ciplc.
The union OF their interests in the
Baltimore convention Of 1912 was die
tlted by political expediency. Once
BRYAN became convinced that the
Presidential nomination was beyond
hts grasp he made fight for Wilson
that was dramatic in the extreme.
The final separation of the two men
is equally dramatic, coming as it does
at time when an International crisis
threatens. and portendng for a GER
tainty a desperate contest between
determined men and factions.
"Cocked Hat" Note.

ago planned the famous political note
which suggested that for the good OF
the party Mr.. Bryan should be

No one IN Washington doubts ina,

general that Mr.. Bryan, who excels
in attack, is more contented to-nEh'
than he has been at any time sine

retary OF state.
