II. The large prospective. He will be
longest remembered because Of broad
foundations which he has helped to
lay and TO which the world will grow
He has stood by his convictions at

That the resignation of Mr. BRYAN
comes as surprise will not In many
quarters imply that it causes regret
In the circumstances there was no
other course open to him. For some
time he has figured as Secretary of
state in name only The important
work incident 10 acute foreign crises
has been admirably performed by Mr..
Robert Lansing, counsellor Of the De-
partment. Mr.. Bryan's name has been
signed TO diplomatic correspondence,
but no one has for one moment sup
posed that Mr.. Bryan wrote the notes.
He simply Jagged superhuous on a
stage in which he played no part he
yond that of an amanuenis and hardly
even that.
The mere abstract retirement of Mr.
Bryan is nothing. Mr. Bryan, indeed.
insinuates that he feels SO keenly the
desirability of the prevention of war
that he cannot continue in harmony
with the President and his Cabinet. and
some will read into this a probability
that the publication of the note will
be a further step toward the possible
embodiment of the United States In
the European war. But one must re-
member Mr.. Bryan's habit of mind,
his dove OF peace lecture. and all that.
He may see in Mr.. Wilson'S suppose BILE

Nothing in Mr.. Bryan's tenure OF the
Office Of Secretary of State becomes
him like the leaving it, His letter TO
she President offering his resignation
is an honest and manly statement of
the reasons for his action. He can no
longer support a policy contrary to his
convictions.
II has been an open secret that the
President had taken all the important
work out Of his hands. and so long as
Mr. Bryan was content to have 1t so
he could remain at his post with no
loss of self-respect, though with some
loss OF dignity. Now that the policy OF
