Invisible government" On the same
day, the Constitutional Convention OF
the State of New York heard from
the lips OF its President, Elihu Root
n most startling declaration. the more
surprising when you consider the pre-
vious political alignments of the speak
or and the character OF his auditors.
-'What is" said Mr.. Root. ''the
Government OF this State. the Gov
eminent OF the Constitution? Oh,
NO: not half Of the time or half
way. 'ss the Government OF the
State has presented two different
Bnes OF activity. one OF the consti-
tutional and statutory officers OF
the State. and the other-they call
them party bosses-the system they
call invisible government" -
80 - II is all wrong. II is all
wrong that the Government not au-
thofszed by the people should be
continued superior to the Govern
ment that is authorized by the peo-
pie"
Says Mr.. Root, the fake government
even in the imperial State of New
York for years has been stronger than
the true government. The inordinate
power of such a government is not
realized because 1t is not seen. Were
all its selfish, and sinister purposes.

titudinous misdeeds exposed in their
naked hideousness TO the view OF hon

and horror from this modern and
monstrous perversion of popular gov.

power, either through public approval
or the secret favor OF this all-per.
vading and unseen influence known
aas Invisible government" Public
men and political organizations have
displayed a morbid ingenuity In their
efforts TO secure the approval OF an
unsuspecting public by glittering gen
erzlities and meaningless platitudes
while filling their slush funds from its
fnsxhaustible Golfers. An alert and
discerning public demands not high
sounding professions OF party loyalty
but II demands explicit promises, the
adoption OF concrete reforms and the
remedy of known abuses-the re.
straint OF the activities Of the lobby.

FINAL DRAFT OF AMERICAN
REPLY SANCTIONED
BY CABINET
Al Meeting INSTRUMENTATION OF
Bryan Causes Alarm in
German Circles.

WASHINGTON. ID. C.. June s.
The policy of the United States to-
ward Germany-an iEsistence on the
observance OF neutral rights and the
safeguarding Of the lives OF Americans
on the high scas-was determined
finally to-day at a cabinet session.
Secretary Byan's resignation had
been submitted and accepted When the
meeting convened. and he took little
part in the discussion The note
which is 10 be sent To- Germany 10,
morrow was read over for the last
time to the cabinet by President VII
son. Suggestions OF some minor
changes were noted by the President
The resignation Of Mr.. Bryan. whose
advocacy of course that under no
circumstances would involve the
United States In war. spread the I'm
preston that the President and his
cabinet had decided firmly that the
rights OF the United States must be
upheld in any evenuality that may
arise. While no inkhnC as to tho
contents OF the note was given. " is
understood that an unfavorable reply
viii mean the severance OF diplomat
ic relations with Germany. and that
attacks on Americans thereafter might
lead to even graver complications.
Caused General Comment.
The effect on the general situation
of Secretary Bryan's withdrawal from
the cabinet was a subject of general
comment everywhere. Foreign diplo-
matists interpreted IL as significant -
a forceful course on the part OF the
United States. They were busy with
their code books and cablegrams 10.
night. advising their respective rOy-
ernments OF the cabinet change and
its significance.
In Austro-German quarters where
there has been some confidence that
Secretary Bryans influence for peace
would make impossible a rupture be-
tween the United States and Germany.
the resignation OF the secretary caused
much uneasiness.
In other official and diplomatic
quarters the view was held that by
accepting the resignation of Mr.. Bryan.
the President has demonstrated 20
Germany his earnest intention OF Sc
curing reparation for the loss of Amer
lean lives on the Lusitania and a guar
antee against other violations of Amer.
lean rights.
