Bryan's Dismal Failure.
kansas City Journal.)

o'S SIty JUL HoIT
Mr.. Bryan has failed dismally to
measure up to the standard of states
manship traditional to that high Of
flee. Thus far, it is currently be-
lieved. in all the bigger affairs Of the
Administration he has been a drag on,
and hindrance to the President rath-
er than help. and it may be not too
much to say that President Wilson is
to be congratulated that the opportun-
ity for securing a really able adviser
was not longer delayed.

Disqualified in Various Ways.
(Philadelphia Press.)

Mr.. Bryan has shown himself both
mentally and temperamentally dis
qualified for his important position. His
heart all along has seemed to be in the
Chautauqua circuit and not in state
affairs. except in the filing Of the Of
fees. His resignation will serve to
strengthen the Administration in the
opinion Of thoughtful citizens, though
its POLITICAL effect in the States where
Mr.. Bryan's influence still counts for
something remains to be seen.

(NeW 1OfK IlmeS.)
Mr.. Bryan has done we'll in resign
ing. 1t is perhaps the wisest act Of
his political career. Differing ir-
reconcilably with the President in re-
spect to the form and substance of the
reply to Germans note, Mr.. Bryan
finds himself also in irreconciIable diff
ference with the vast majority Of his
countrymen. 1t was out Of the ques-
ton that he should continue to be
Secretary of State. But the difference
over the note to Germany after all is
hardly more than the occasion Of his
retirement. The act has many caus-
es, and the state Of mind which pro-
duced his resignation was one that
may be called cumulative. For many
months Mr.. Bryan has had to feel that
he was an unconsidered parsonage in
the Administration. The forms Of
friendly relation and OF counsel were
maintained. Power and influence he
no longer possessed. Undoubtedly.

Bryan a Deserter.

The country looks upon Mr.. Bryan
as a deserter, yet this is no time to en-
gage in examinations. Still, sentiment
will be strong against the Secretary of
State who retires from the guns while
the diplomatic issues are being fought
out between Germany and the United
States. The passing of Mr.. Bryan
from the Cabinet is not Of the same
importance as the effect that his self
elimination may have. Nevertheless,

Mr.. Bryan's resignation as Secretary
of State is not surprise. The place
has not been congenial to him. and he
has been more and more inclined to
turn from politics to the field Of re-
ligion and temperance. Mr.. Bryan
finds this an opportune time to take the
step which he has long had in mind.
The affairs Of the Department of State
will go on without interruption, and
probably the office Of Secretary will be
filled by man better adapted to the
position.

Lunu Worms In Swine.

Lung worms is a disease which it is
almost impossible to treat successfully
after a pig is once badly infected. The
application Of preventive measures is
about the only treatment that can be
recommended. The spread Of the dis
ease might be largely controlled by
the use Of crude oil applied to the
floors Of the buildings, thus killing the
eggs. Frequent changes Of bedding
and litter and the burning of all this
material is also advisable. In a badly
infested herd 1t will be a good plan to
change the lots entirely. starting on
fresh ground.

AIR MEN GET SCARED.
They Never Knew When a Panic of
Fear May Grip Them.

l hey Never KncW When a Panic OF
Fear May Grip Them.
Professional aeroplane pilots have
long Since ceased to be ashamed to con-
fess that they get scared and that a
panic OF fear while in the air may seize
them at any time. Why this is SO is
the subject of an article in the London
Aeroplane.
1t appears that u fier with an imagi-
nation is never quite happy, especially
on a long fight in calm weather when
he has nothing to occupy his attention.
One pilot, who is n Of the finest f1iers
in England, has a habit which is most
disconcerting to his passengers, how
ever consoling it may be to him person
ally. He will fly without a waver for
perhaps half an hour, then suddenly
The passenger will imagine that a storm
has struck them, for the machine will
stand first on one wing tip and then on
the other, then it will dive terrifcally,
and then it will almost loop the loop.
After that it will calm down and fly
for another half hour, when the per-
Torrance will be repeated. After they
have landed and the passenger has re-
marked on the extraordinary squalls
which struck them when over certain
places, the pilot will casually explain
that he was merely looking round at
those intervals to see whether his tail
was still there and was testing the
controls to see whether anything was
trying to jam.
"'Cold feet may lead merely to prop
er caution, or it may lead to complete
loss of nerve. A pilot may have cold
feet Of a certain machine and so fly it
with due respect for it's peculiarities,
or he may have cold feet of flying al
together, in which case he had better
give it up, for if he does not he must
take to doping which is fatal.
"a particularly malignant disease is
constructors cold feet in which the
victim, always on the ground himself,
watches every machine in the air in a
constant state Of terror, expecting it to
fall in pieces whenever it is moved by
a gust, and when a machine Of his own
OR any other make is on the ground, he
is always paving round it, finding some
spot at which it may break"

MANAGER PAT MORAN OF THE
partment first class, and the whole
team seems to hit the old %horsehide
rather consistently.
This opinion is backed only by prece-
dent. Former Phil teams in the
past thirty-eight years. have started
well and gradually wormed out of
reach Of the pennant before the dog
days. Philadelphia fans concede that
much, but this one time the Quaker
City writers differ with them. On the
other hand, Old Man Dope may be
banking his argument solely on what
Phil teams did in former years.
This year may mean an exception.
Moran has his men in there fighting
every minute. That's what wins ball
games. If they can continue on their
toes as they have, take the chances
that won for them successes against
the strong eastern teams and fight just
as hard against the western clubs they
will be up there on top at the finish.
On paper as a team the Phils look just
as good now as any set Of the Tener
circuit. The blow" Of the team may
come; it may come to any collection Of
ball tossers. But isn't it possible that
this year-the thirty-ninth of the Phils
is an exception to the rule Of back
sliding by Philadelphia?

Roehlina Is Improved Pitcher.

Joe Boehling undoubtedly is the most
improved pitcher the Washington club
has had in years. He is finished now
in every respect, fields his position we'll,
has a good motion to first and uses
good judgment in pitching to various
batters. Griffith looks for him to beat
his record of two years ago, when he
won twelve straight. That was in
1913, really the first year that Joe was
getting a major league education.
