The "ODen Door" Policy.

The free trade papers of the country
are still insisting that there shall be an
open door, in the Philippines, when
those islands are formally taken under
the control of the United States. The
meaning of the term open door" is
but it is accepted as meaning that the
markets of those islands shall be
thrown wide open to the nations of the
world without let or hindrance, and that
abandoned. To protection the United
States owes all the prosperity that is
enjoyed today, but according to the
free traders the people of this country
must close their eyes to the incongruity
of having protection in n part of the
republic and free trade in another. Ii
the open door policy is adopted, con-
sistency must be cast to the winds, and
these antagonistic cOnditions-free
trade in one section and protection in
another-must be admitted into the &C.
onomic policy of the government. How
his can be done, the open door advo-
Gates do not explain.
The plain facts are these: England
now controls about 80 per cent of all the
commerce of the Philippines, and the
United States is virtually shut out. If
the policy of free trade should be adop-
ted in the islands then this country
would have conquered Spain, sacrificed
many valuable lives and millions of dol
lars; and must in the future maintain
a large army in the islands for the pur-
pose of maintaining peace and protect
ing life and property, establish at great
expense a stable civil government, and
all this to secure Great Britain in the
monopoly of the markets already en-
joyed.
Thus the people of the United States
would have the results of past and fu-
ture expenditures in civiliZing the Phil
ippines-no markets there-while other
countries which have already establish
ed themselves, would enjoy all the prof
it's. That is the meaning of the open
door in the Philippines. The producers
of the United States, who will have to
foot the bills for the control of the ISL
ands under free trade, will hardly con-
sent to any such arrangement.

A noteworthy feature of the Hull bill
is that it increases the hospital corps to
5000 privates with necessary non-com-
missioned officers and a large increase
in surgeons and assistant surgeons.
Sub-tropical service will call for an in
crease of 25 per cent in pay, and inhab-
itants of the recently acquired colonies
may enlist in the commands serving
there. Chairman Hull makes no pro-
visions for such an increase in the gem
eral officers as the Miles bill, and pro-
vides only for n lieutenant general,
six major generals, II b%rigadier gener-
ais. Generals Miles and Schofield are
advisin" with the committee, and a
combination of the two bills may be the
result.

his bill, to give even the gist of it to the
press, but now that it is in the commit

differs materially from the Miles bill,
providing for only an increase of five
infantry regiments and two of cavalry,
while the author agreeing with General
Miles that the sea coast demands more
adequate protection than can be given
by the present sever regiments of ar
tillery, increases that branch of the
service to IA, or two less than the num-
Der on the Miles bill. The size of the

h 53d legislative assembly of New
Mexico will have a large Republican
majority. and the people are anticipat-
ing much in the way of good legislation
from the session. Many of the laws now
in force need amending, and new ones
are necessary to meet the requirements
of present conditions. With the power
in their hands to enact just such laws
as they please, the Republicans will re-
ceive the credit for the benefit derived
by the territory by the acts of the legis-
lature, or they will be compelled to bear
the responsibility for any and all dis
c~reditable or vicious laws placed upon
the statute books. In order to accom-
plish The greatest good for the people,
the members of the assembly must lay
aside all personal considerations, refuse
to be the tools of designing persons and
self-seekers, and bend every energy to
doing their full duty by the
wealth. Judging from the characters of
the men who have been elected to the
assembly, the New Mexican believes
that the voters and tax payers will not
be disappointed, and that the result Of
the labors of the Legislature will be for
the advancement of the business inter-
ests of the territory and for the correc-
ton Of many of the existing troubles
which are drawbacks to the people
