Fortunately Mr.
Asquith and I get along mighty well.

He met Bryan once, and he told me with a smile that he regarded him as "a peculiar product of your country." But the Secretary is always doing things like this.

He dashes off letters of introduction to people asking me to present them to Mr.Asquith, Mr.Lloyd George, etc.
In the United States we know Mr.Bryan.We know his good points, his good services, his good intentions.

We not only tolerate him; we like him.

But when he comes here as "the American Prime Minister" [45]--good-bye, John! All that we've tried to do to gain respect for our Government (as they respect our great nation) will disappear in one day.
