chooses to adhere to his resolution as the
likeliest means OF gaining his end. Mr..
Bryan equally thought it his duty to be
consistent with his past policy and re-
fused to desert the principles which he
holds to be sacred.
LAS to the probable results of Mr.
Bryan's resignation, it does not look at
present as if they would seriously AFFECT
the American policy. Those who sympa-
thize with Germany in the United States
may try to make capital out of it. on
the ground that the late Secreary has
large following in the country. and
therefore represents a solid body OF opin-
ion favorable to Berlin But there is
nothing in Mr.. Bryans letter OF resigna-
ton to support such contention.

LONDON, June 10-Most of the Lon

discuss the resignation of Mr.. Bryan
fully until the contents of President
Wilson's note are known. The Daily
Graphic in an editorial says:
The incident is in keeping with Mr..
Bryan's spectacular career, but it's i'm
portance may easily be overestimated.
1t must be remembered that, in ac-
cordance with American precedent, he
became Secretary of State automati-
cal lily. not in recognition of a profound
knowledge of international politics.
but solely because he was Mr. Wilson's
chief competitor for the presidency.
His ambition for that DISTINGUISHED
position is possibly as burning as ever.
but his resignation under the present
dramatic conditions is hardly likely to
increase his following"
Now Deemed Highly Important.
The Times in an editorial this morn
ing says:
Mr. Bryan's resignation is a much
more personal than political event. 1t
is dramatic incident in a highly
dramatic career, but it is not the turn
ing point, or even a milestone, in the
national policy.
"It would argue, indeed, a profound
misunderstanding of current American
conditions to ascribe to it one tithe
the importance the world would nat
urally attach to the resignation of. say,
Sir Edward Grey. Such political sig
niflcance as 1t carries with 1T is in the
main domestic and not international.
1t may affect the fortunes of the demo-
crats but assuredly 1t will not affect
the situation which has arisen between
the United States and Germany. 1t is
not to be regarded as victory for the
war party or as a defeat for the peace
party, or as indicating any break in
the solid mass of popular opinion which
is steadfastly arrayed behind President
Wilson and is prepared to support him
in whatever course he decides to
pursue"

Co., of St. Joseph, Mo-, to take i'm

the affairs of the concern at once.
This means that the Felt Mercan-
tile Co. will close its doors much
sooner than anticipated, consequently
the offer of accepting bankable notes
must necessarily be Withdrawn. How
ever, The Bailie Savage Co. will as
sumo the offer. Any bills of mer-
chandise amounting to fifteen dollars
or over purchased from The Bailie
Savage Co. can be paid for with a
bankable note.
According to the advertisements,
this is the greatest sale ever attempt
ed in Northern Idaho, and both con-
Germs have inaugurated very liber-
al policy of merchandising to be in
full force during the sale period,
which is from Nov. 10Th to Dec. 11th.
