THE PASSING OF BRYAN

Returns from the preferential primary held in Ne
braska are coming in, and these returns, as tar as report
ed, suggest one blessing for which the country at large
will be duly grateful. Mr.. William ]. Bryans name was
on the list of candidates for delegate at large to the Ma
tional Democratic Convention, and up to date he is sixth
il a list of seven candidates, four of whom will be chosen.
Concurrently with this comes from Washington the
report that when the news of the impending Crisis IN our
controversy with Germany reached Bryan, while on the
way to New Orleans, he Immediately Cancelled his speak
ing appointment and rushed to Washington, where ne
now is, doing as much to uphold the hands of the kaiser
as he did to strengthen and fortify the revolutlonist
Aguinaldo sixteen years ago, at the time OF the Philip
pine instruction.
The thoughtful American will always hold Mr..
Bryan responsible for much of our trouble in connection
with the European war. Nothing not supported by doct1-
mentary evidence is more generally believed than the
statement of the former Austrian ambassador, Dumba,
that Bryan had, in effect, advised him in a personal inter
view that our first submarine note was intended to sat
isfy our own people and did not mean what 1t said.
Congress, regardless of political parties, is trying to
give the president and the state department a tree hand
to deal with Germany and to manage Our foreign rela-
tons, and the one man whose interference at this time
will be regarded with the least approval IS the man VINO
had a chance and failed so m~iserably.
We will await with interest the final returns from
the Nebraska primaries.

A POSSIBLE PEACE PARTY
preparedness

In Washington they have actually seen the apparltlon
of a peace party with Bryan and Ford to head the ticket
for president. Appended to the platform will be endorse
mcnts of prohibition Of the national kind and suffrage OF
the universal kind. But the new party will stand fTsl
and all the time for peace, no matter what the price may
be. Henry Ford has been much tempted by his success
in Michigan and Nebraska. =.
As Washington sees, it, the new party would poll
most OF its strength in the middle west, where the war
sentiments are the weakest. If such a ticket were placed
in the field it would in a measure make many states eN-
trcmelv doubtful. 1t would add zest to the campaigns OF
the two national parties which are in the campaign with
rival leaninps toward preparedness. Whether Bryan
would draw more from the democrats than FORD from the
republicans is the point upon which the goSs1pers are not
yet agreed.
But while such a movement might look formidable
for a few weeks, it would appear less and less SO as the
time for the national election drew near. In the supreme
moment. we believe, most voters are gong to choose De
tween the two chief contestants. They want their votes
70 count one way or another. Nor is 1t belieVable that
any great number of voters would be opposed to this
government making some provisions for its own protec
ton and defense.

SOME PRACTICAL DIPLOMACY

A very significant feature of the European war is the
trade treaty which Roumania has finally concluded with
Germany, a treaty by which Germany is assured of an
adequate supply of both grain and petroleum. The re
sources of Roumania are very great, and while there is
no doubt in the world of her sympathy with Russia IN
the present war, the conclusion of the treaty with Ger
many indicates that she has decided to keep out OF the
conflict herself and to commercialize it to the best OF her
ability. German diplomacy may lack a certain subtleness
necessary to its success in some great capitals, but there
no doubt in the world that in the Balkans it has eXerted
a tremendously advantageous influence. At the war S
beginning it appeared that the whole Balkan pack would
swing against Germany, vet in the dispomatic game the
kaisers representatives have preserved neutrality in
Greece and Roumania and have succeeded in arraylng on
their side the fine little army of Bulgaria. The achieve
ment has been one of the really notable ones of the whole
war, and it is not the less notable because achieved against
odds in a province of activity i'll which Germany has been
REGARDED crude and unSkilled.

MILITARY TRAINING FOR BOYS

Two bills OF general interest are making progress in
the New York legislature. One is a bill for compulsory
physical instruction in the schools. The d~esirability of
such instruction is agreed upon, but the precise manner
of giving it is a subject of controversy. Then there is a
bill which, as it now stands, provides for the minitary
training in summer camps, of boys between the ages of
10 and 70.
1t was deemed unwise to introduce military training
into the schools, and as the training of all the boys in
New York state in summer camps would be a huge and
expensive task, one plan is to exempt boys who work.
There IS opposition to this, however, some of the advo-
Gates OF military training insisting that all boys should
be treated alike. Even if the act is not made universally
compulsory, the Utica Observer thinks that lin this state
of ten million people there would be very many boys to
enlist tor a course at a summer camp, particularly If a
little baseball, swimming and other good sport could be
mixed with the serious military work. Such training of
young men would be an excellent thing for their health
and discipline. Physical training in the schools and sum
mer camps for boys is about as far as a state can be asked
to go, for the main business of national defense must be
planned and carried out by the national government"
The New York experiment will be watched by the
other states with keen interest. Drawbacks and discour-
agements must be expected the first two or three years: it
will take time and experience to perfect the system.
