declaring that "the issue involved II
Of such moment that to remain a mem
ber of the Cabinet would be as unfair
to you as 1t would be TO the cause
which is nearest my heart, namely, the
prevention of war;"
The President accepted the resigna-
tion in letter of regret, tinged with
deep personal feeling of affection.
Dramatically the official relation Of
Mr.. Bryan with the administration of
the man whose nomination he assisted
so materially in bringing about at the
Baltimore convention of 1912 came to
an end. It caused sensation in the
National capital scarcely paralleled in
recent years.
Ambassadors, ministers and diplo-
mats from foreign lands, officials Of
every rank and nation heard the news
as il was flashed by newspaper extras.
They interpreted variously its effect
on the delicate situation that had risen
between Germany and the United
States. The resignation Of the
staunchest advocate of peace in the
Presidents official family spread
broadcast the belief that the policy of
the United States as definitely deter
mined on would assert and defend the
rights of the United States in any
eventuality that might arise.
Originally, it was the intention OF
the President and Mr.. Bryan to have
the announcement of the resignation
made simultaneously with the dispatch
of the note to Germany, but when Mr..
Bryan did not attend the Cabinet meet
ing until President Wilson sent for
him, rumors that the President had
been unable to bring the Secretary of
State to his point of view filled the air.
Finally, the news became known and
was confirmend.
Just when the subject was first
broached between the President and
Mr.. Bryan is not definitely known but
the fact that Mr.. Bryan would resign
was known to small circle of officials
as early as last Sunday. When the
principles on which the note to Ger
many should be based were discussed
Mr.. Bryan found that he could not rec
oncile his own position with that of the

Sara Mill on Full Force.

Ridgefield, Wash.-The sawmill be-
longing to the Allen & Ryan Lumber

southeast of Ridgefield, is running full

East. A tremendous triumph for the
state. Oregon spent on her exhibit
$2500; Washington, s7500, and Cali

Oregon is due to her exhibit being
purely horticultural in character, every
item being practical for horticultural
purposes.

Dear Sir
f. In answer to your question

of corrosive sublimate and for
maldehyde for potato scab; both
are equally effective against scab
but corrosive sublimate is much
more effective against Rhizoc-
tonia. They are about equally
expensive and | would, therefore
advise you very strongly to use
the corrosive sublimate since
there is quite a little of Rhizoc-
