THE RESIGNATION OF SECRETARY BRYAN.

William J. Bryan, being unable to approve of President Wilson's last note to Germany, resigned as Secretary of State Tuesday afternoon; The resignation was accepted and Counselor Robert Lansing is now acting as Secretary of State in Mr. Bryan's stead. According to the letters of resignation and acceptance, the difference was not over the result sought but over the method of bringing it about. Both President Wilson and Mr. Bryan are earnest advocates of peace, and it is unfortunate indeed at this time that their policies should clash. Both are men of strong opinions, Mr. Bryan has Stayed in the cabinet longer than The Democrat anticipated he would when appointed as a member thereof. In view of the strained relations now existing between this country and Germany, it would seem that Mr. Bryan should have stuck to his post and not deserted President Wilson at this time. There is a possibility, of course, that bis action may be misinterpreted by Germany, and he could have compromised his conscience, it would seem, by keeping still and therefore not have given it the opportunity for doing so. It seems that:' Mr. Bryan's idea has been to warn Americans from taking passage’ on British ships and especially ships carrying ammunition and munitions of war, also to submit the differences that have arisen to a tribunal composed of representatives of neutral countries, and he has made public his reasons for resigning as such. The people of the United states, regardless of political affiliations, and, we might say, nationality, are almost unanimously behind President Wilson in anything that arises as a result of its controversy with Germany over the sinking of the Lusitania and other merchant ships. As the Indianapolis News well says: ' ( The country will stand with the President on the pending issue. It

has indorsed his policy in regard to the submarine campaign from the very start. Not for one moment has it failed to support the President. It will not fail to. do so now. Mr. Aryan's resignation will not make a particle of difference. Indeed, it will relieve the President of much embarrassment. There is one assumption that Mr. I P-r>‘an makes that, in our opinion, must be dissolved. .It is that he is in some special sense the friend of peace. Yet he is no stronger for peace than the President is. Mr. Taft, who has most patriotically supported the administration, is known all over the world as an earnest peace man. More than that, the American people are lovers of peace. The question now is not one o peace or war. but of doing what we can to make Germany see that ’*• f recent warfare on unarmed ships '"'•d on neutrals may lead to war. The effort is and has been to insure peace by bringing her to a better state of mind. The pause of peace is dear to the American heart. The issue relates to foreign afatrs, and it might be better to refrain from inviting further dscussion o them at this time. As we have said, Mr. Bryan was within his rights in resigning. But even more than shat his action was Wise, since unity of view in the cabinet is essential. While it is reg re table that differences should have arisen at such a time, response from all sources in support of the President will result in simplifying the President’s problem. Looked at from this point of view Mr. Bryan, by his resignation, has rendered an important public service. We shall now have a united and , harmonious government. The duty of the hour is to stand together as Americans in support of an American administration.

WHERE ARE THEY?

What has become of the barefooted boys and girls we used to see throng the streets? asks the Freeport, Pa., Journal. It is a rare thing now to see any of the small fry with their pedal extremities bare. We are all either prouder or better off than :n our boyhood days. We remember when there were onl> one or two families whose children wore shoes and stockings the whole year round, and they were considered •‘stuckup.” Our mothers useu to have to whale as to make us wear shoes on the Sabbath, and we would hike home and get them off soon as church was out. Nearly every fellow had a stonebruise or had stubbed his big toe and carried It in a sling unless he was a “Miss Nancy,’’ and played with the girls. Of course, there is not the same inducement to run barefooted now, for there is no dust six inches deep on the streets for a fellow to shuffle through, or pohds in front of every store when it rains for him to splash around in and work the mud up between his toes. Stiveson’s pond is also a thing of the past, and he ca - no longer sail over its bosom on a siao in summer time or baDter on thin ice in winter. It is also true that a fellow does not have to stumble through a flock of geese or fall over a cow every here and there bn the sidewalk as in the good old days.

FORGIVENESS IS BLESSED

P»aldf iS2. -June 13. Sins Forgiven, Covered, Blotted Out. Iniquity Not Imputed—Who May Pray For Forgiveness—Under the Law Covenant—Under Grace Covenant —Under New Covenant—Some Sins Not Forgivable but Expiable. “Bless&l is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.”—Verse i. CIIE Scriptures teach that sins may he forgiven in the sense that God will not continue to treat us as sinners, the sins, however, remaining to be dealt with—merely covered. They also show that the time for actually blotting out sins is in the future, not in the present life. To illustrate: The Christian Wlvo has transgressed the Divine Law quite unintentionally through inherited weaknesses may promptly go to .God for forgiveness through the Redeemer, and is assured that God will not remember his sin against him, because Jesus made Tull atonement for strch sin. There is another class of sin, partly of weakness and heredity, and partly assented to by the mind. This we might term a mixed sin. In forgiving this sin, the' Lord will cover or overlook whatever portion was uii wilful, unintentional, through ignorance: hut

lie will punish whatever was of knowledge, connivance or assent of the mind. There is still another kind of sin, which the Bible describes as wilful—one against knowledge. This is sometimes called a sin against the lloly Spirit; for whoever wilfully trans-

gresses against knowledge and Truth transgresses against the Spirit of Truth. Such sin never has forgiveness (Matthew 12:32); it must be expiated. If, however, it were a sin against full light, the expiation would mean the [ Second Death. We have reason to believe that on account of inherited weaknesses and unholy environment, nearly all sins committed by God's people are mixed sins—only partly wilful. Whoever realizes his transgression forgiven and his sin covered must have great peace and joy toward the Lord. Nevertheless he may be troubled with aches, pains and various diseases as a result of those Sins. The sins, there fore, are not blotted out, although forgiven; their marks are seen in whatever way they have blemished him. St. Peter declares that our sins will be blotted out fit Christ’s Second Coming. (Acts 3:19-21.) We readily see how this will he; for in the resurrection the Church will be given perfect bodies. Conditions For Forgiveness. Much confusion of thought prevails respecting forgiveness of sins. To understand clearly, we must remember that Hie whole world rest under Divine sentence of death, with no direct offer of hope. The Lord’s people have the Scriptures, informing them that God purposes great things for mankind, but that at present God’s mercies and favors are confined to those in covenant relationship with Him. God entered into a Covenant with Israel, through Moses as mediator. On the basis of the Atonement Day sacrifices, forgiveness was imputed to them, for that year. Thus they could come to God in prayer respecting forgiveness of sin, as in David's case. This privilege did not extend to the Gentiles; and even with the Jews it merely typified the permanent arrangement of this , Gospel Age, based upon Jesus’ “better sacrifices.” j Since Jesus’ day another Covenant j has been opened, the Law Covenant being practically inoperative meanwhile. Those who enter this Covenant 1 of Grace sacrifice thgir earthly rights and interests, accepting by faith the I spiritual blessings which God has

His spirit. His disposition. What they lack is made up to them by the imputation of His merit Thus they may enter into the Covenant of Sacrifice, He acting as their Advocate.—Psa. 50:5. Many seem unaware that only those in covenant relationship with God can go to Him in prayer.—John 9:31; 14:6. The Advocate’s Only Terms. With the false 'idea that the penalty for sin is eternaPtorment, many imagine the Lord,Jesus sitting dejectedly, waiting for sinners to show the slightest sign of repentance, when lie would accept them without terms or conditions. Nothing could be further from the Bible. There the repentant sinner desiring our Lord to make him acceptable to the Father is promptly told that be can have this privilege only on certain fixed terms. See Matthew 16:24. Misinformed evangelists may, in the name of the Lord, make different terms; but they are thus far away from the authorized Message of God’s Word. Jesus, on the contrary, advised some to sit down and count the cost (Luke 9:20-35; 9:62.) If these views were generally accepted, Christians would be of a better standard, more acceptable to the Lord.—Matt. 7:13, 14.

Longevity in High Places.

Former Vice-President Levi P. Morton recently observed bis ninetyfirst birthday, anniversary. He has attained the greatest age of any among those who have served in the 'vice-presidency, a position of distinction and longevity well. John Adams, first of vice-presidents,” lived to be go. Thomas Jefferson was S 3 when he died. Hannibal Hamlin was o i and Aaron Burr had passed the our score milepost when he died. The average terms of life for all vice-president!* who have died is 69 years G months. Jt is an interesting fact that the average length of life of the presidents who have died is within 15 days of that of the vice-presidents, the . former presidents having lived the longer. The 24 men who have served as presidents and have died lived to a total of 1,663 years. The 24 men who are now dead and. num--berad among our. Xor—cr. vi. <--}ir< dents lived a total of 1,662 years, 'll., lists, of 'course, include the names of several men who had been both vlce-preseident and president. —-indiafiapolis News.
