A BELATED AWAKENING

Some people gain measure OF Wis
dom only after the opportunity to use
it for their own benefit has passed be-
yond recall Common sense is the first
prerequisite, the sin qua non, OF wisdom.
Sympathy, therefore, is the due OF VIII
liam Jennings Bryan, thrice candidate
for the presidency and oftener par
ticipant in affairs which arc controlled
through national politics. Probably no
other man in public lie has advanced
so many hare-braincd political and gov
ornamental theories as those which make
up the record Of what was once popularity
known as "the commoner" He was
swept into national prominence by his
own oratorical outbursts-his 16-to-l
bimetalism theory, in 1896. Thereafter
he was a prolific producer OF theories 10
less fallacjous than that advanced IN his
Gross of Gold" speech before the Demo-
cratic convention twenty-seven years
ago.
In the early stages OF the World War;
before the United States had recognized
its duty, Mr.. Bryan sought to eXtinguish
the mighty conflagration with liquid
words. But his labials, his cascades OF
cadcnceful eloquence, produced no Ell
feet
He became obsCssed with the idea
that to insure her own safety America
would have only to speak an official
word and millions OF men would spring
to arms overnight He could not realize
the vital reality that war is not neces-
sarily a matter OF choice.
Now come apparent signs OF change
in Mr.. Bryan's philosophy. lie seems
to have taken counsel of common sense
now that he is no longer 'in line for
political office and he has so thoroughly
discredited himself as a statesman.
AT York, Pa, a few days ago, Mr..
Bryan uttered some words that would
do credit to any school boy. Any school
boy in his right mind would be expected
TO know what Mr. Bryan, apparently,
has discovered after many years OF ex-
perience and presumably of some
| thought. What he said about President
Harding'S international court plan may
be disposed OF with the remark that the
disposed OF with the remark that the
subject matter is controversial To
repeat IT, however, may serve as an cX-
plan%tory preface to his words Of Gle
imentary wisdom.
Il am Tor Harding's proposal" he
said, lust as he proposes it. But am
for participation with reservation to
act independently in times OF war"
Although the latter assertion sounds
slgnficapt, in that it shows that Mr..
Bryan has at last recognized the fact
that war might be forced upon the
country against its will, it does not fur
