WATCHING THE IMtFHIDKNT. Antithetical Ideas of President Wil don nnd William JounigB Bryan, rc-J tilgncd Secretary of State, ns to tho use of beverage!) on statu occasions at tho National capital, ure vividly brought to light in resolutions sub mitted ,o tho General Conference of Meth'odjsts. now in session ut Sarato ga Springs. In which "keen disappoint ment and regret that thc Chief Execu tive should.resort to the use of wine," is emphatically expressed. Press re port? soy tho resolution was "coldly received." Mr. Bryan's so-cnlb grape Juice mania has .been ridiculed from cbaei to const, and foreign diplomats In Washington say, with u shrug of tho shoulders, "Its just another of the Great Commoner's eccentricities." > Tho resolution of disapproval, intro duced by the Hov. Jumes W. Anderson, of Oregon, Mo., and which was solidly rupportd by the Misourl delegates, reads as follows: ."Whereas, lt has been reported through tho-public press that our President, tho Hon. Woodrow Wilson, has restored the uso of Intoxicating Nunora at the White House functions: Thorcforc.be lt ?'. . - \ - itosolvcd. by the General Confer ence nf the Methodist Kuku opal Church. That we hereby express to tho Hon. Woolrow Wilson, President of ibo United Statcs.vour keen disap pointment and regret for said action, especially al a time when the rulers of othsr nations huvo taken such ad vanced positions with reference to In tcxlcatlng liquors, nud when there Is such widespread growing sentiment In our land of total abstlnenco from all alcoholic beverages; add wc. the dele gates, repr?sentatives of moro than four million members of Ibo Metho dist Episcopal Church, horcby appeal to tho President as n Christian gentle man to abolish tho wino cup from ali functions over which he baa control, thcroby setting a worthy example und keeping puce with tho forward move ment and Christian sentiments of tho day. "And furthermore, ns tho liquor hpvorago traffic has its national or ganization, and pays 'Government rev enue, so that for thoso and other reas ons It ls a national issue, we most ur gently request the PoBldont to glvo hts endorsement and Ucarty support to thc pending moasurss looking to ward nation-wide prohibition of tho liquor beverage traffic."

Whllo she resolution lacked the en dorsement of tho conference at Sara toga Springs, and may n?tiget serious consideration at tho hands'of other rc 1'glhua organisations.
