TRABUCO FOREST.
Herman Recommends That 5O,OCO
 Acres be Added to the Tract.

Washington, January 12.-Commissionar Hermann of the general land office, has recommended to the secretary of the in- terior that 5O,000 acres additional be in cluded in the Trabuco canyon forest reser- vaton in Southern California; and adjoin- ing said reservation on the south This is in accordance with a numerously signed pc tltion by citizens of California, residing in the vicinity of the reservation. It is the watershed for several streams of import ance flowing towards the coast which are valuable for irrigation and other uses. The owners of lands along these water courses have joined in the petition The superin- tendent of forests in California also recom- mends that proclamation be issued withdrawing said area from the public do- main. Another area of about 0,00O acres in addition to the 30 GOO tract also has been recommended for this purpose, making an aggregate of 120,00O acres for the reserva- ton.

The Omen Door in ohinn

If the course of the United States in putting itself into position to defend it's interests in the far east needed justifca- ton, there would be found an argument in the bitter attack of the Novoe Vremya of St. Petersburg upon our new foreign policy. The Russion journal is angry because we have joined hands with Great Britain and Japan-as it thinks we have-to defend the policy of the open door in China. A few years ago, it says, Russia might have re- joieed in the strength of this country in the Pacific; but now all that Is changed. sSith our strategical advantages in Hawaii, Samoa and the Philippines we threaten the Russian plans for overrunning China. This frank confession shows how successful we are likely to be in attaining our object Yet no doubt there are those who will say we ought to have stayed at home and let our China trade go by the board rather than offend Russia or take any part what ever in the affairs of the outer world That, by the way, has been the policy of the nation which Russia now wants to swallow up.
