Mr. Bryan abhor red the idea of war and resigned Nevertheless in the campaign of 1916. II rot her Divan went from the Missis sippi river to the Pacific coast extoll ing Mr. Wilson on the he-help-us-out of-war platform. For a little while there was a tendency toward reunion. Occasionally Mr. llrau dropped In at the White House, left his card, ex ressed a few thoughts if the Presi dent happened to be in. or w rote long memoranda if he wasn't. Presently the answers and acknowl edgements got fewer and fewer and the commoner became corresponding ly diseonnued. After the armistice, lie hoped to have something to do with the peace negotiations and even made some subtest ions about the per sonnel of the American peace commis sion. M''. Ilryan complained to his friends later than since his advice wasn't apparently welcome, he would n't offer it aain. And he said sundry other things iilioul ihe unwisdom of ignoring the Republican party in the make-up of the peace mission and the terrible encumbrance which the Dem ocratic parly was being compelled lo bear in the form of Wilson arbitrari ness and sell-sufficiency. Indeed, Mr Hixau's observations differed very lit tle from wliii l one might hear in the cloakroom, only the commoner wept ns a parent over the errant ways of the Democratic child whilst the Re publicans rejoiced over :he (liscoin fliure of their chief opponent. Again and again. Mr. Bryan (old his friends thai the President should ac cept reservations lo the peace treaty. This conclusion he reached alter a careful examination of public opinion. He deemed It much more effective help for the President to say I hut the treaty should be ratified with reserva tions than to argue for nmiualified adoption and be dismissed by (he press as a mere echo of the Wilson chorus. Mr. Bryan's idea when he resigned from the cabinet was lhat he could help Mr. Wilson outside the cabinet by building up a public opin ion against war lhat would aid Mr Wilson inside the cabinet. So Mr, Bryan has been prcachiiie reserva tions. And now because Mr. Wilson isn't willing to compromise- though Mr. Bryan thinks the country wants some compromise the commoner plans to go on helping the President bv building up a public opinion lhat will help ihe President see how wrong he is. priceless inillir I Lancaster In-nichi onH m.hnl.1 iho vsacniia might nave asked for local post in its ultimatum that un f, ,oyT less Dr. Stough left the city by mid I loin o tA 1 rm k a a V. m ml ...
