A Triumph of American Diplomacy


When consider that recent DEVELOPMENTS have made
the Pacific Ocean almost American sea it's impossible
to over estimate the far reaching value the socaled
open door negotiations successfully concluded by
tary OF State Hay The meaning Of this phrase open
in China may better be expressed by the words equa
rights in the ports of China within whatsoever national
sphere of influence they may be located.
The result OF Secretary Hays negotiations to
American in the every advantage possessed
by Great Britain Germany France Italy Russia and Japan
in the ports of China which they any degree
of control Of sovereignty The equal rights secured to the
United States against discrimination the matter of
merchandise shipped the ports China are shared by the
six countries named who parties with
the United States.
The marvel of the peaceful triumph of American dplo
macy is that in return for the valuable concession from
the named the United States surrendered Not
ing 1t had sphere of influence in China to which Eng
land, Germany France, Italy, Russia Japan might de-
mand an door equal terms in like priv
ege granted in their respective spheres of influence
The United States has simply it's equal footing in the
Orient by bringing the other powers represented there to
mutual agreement with each other, taking in the
agreement counsel fee as it were for bringing the
others terms
Under this agreement American merchandise can be ship
ped to and landed in all Chinese ports within spheres of
influence OF the nations named upon equal terms; there
will be discriminating harbor nor railroad charges
within such spheres
The successful issue of these negotiations be of meal
cuabe benefit to the United States opening up the
Chinese Empire to and trade The western
shore Of the Pacific is the inviting field American
enterprise which will have
to go into the door and take possession China
Most heartily do congratulate Secretary Hay and the
president on the outcome Of their negotiation the open
door more especially these leave absolutely free
rein to treat the Philippines American territory where
American interests alone shall be consuedTimes Herald

Continuous School Sessions.

Prof Sheakey, in talk before the Des Moines Womans
club yesterday afternoon proposed school innovation
CONTINUOUS schoo sessions throughout the year. In the
ginning should be said that Prof Sheaey expressed him
self as not wholly converted dea but said he had
given the matter much thought inclined to believe
that would be good thing Prof Sheaey said that the
greatest evil to be among school children was ideness
that children do have enough to do to keep them
busy He said that many mothers come to him. especially
during the long vacation periods say that thew do NOT
know what do with their children to keep them ONT Of
mischief.
PROT Sheakey considers the problem serious one and
REGARDS the continuous school sessions perhaps the only
remedy lie would have half day sessions throughout the
year. which the scholars receive instructions in all
the regular Of study The said should
be given up to studies exaneous equally important
such probably would be given under manual training
gymnasium work In the should be planned
excursions under the direction teacher and the child
instructed in all the lore of Prof. sheakley
realizes to this pa the corps efficient teachers
would need be increased.
The plan, in measure carried by the so-caed
vacation schools started throughout the country But the
vacation schools nave been started chiefly for the bent
the children of the poor mothers who COMPLAIN TO
MIR Shealey that they do know what to do with their
children in vacation time probably included in this
class such school arrangement Prof Sheaey suggests
- uhaouDteaiy an IDEAL 1t practically the private
and governess idea enlarged and public If parents
could afford it, the ideal education their child would be
to secure worthy and efficient person. who would CON
stantly watch over the intellectual welfare child
But can the public schools hope approximate this
extenton Where could the army competent teachers be
raised, and whence would come adequate pay
them? More and more is constantly being demanded
public school teachers Parents have come to regard the
teachers as the keepers Of their children 1t would
awakening needed among parents the pub
lie school children, to bring them realization of their
responsibilities Perhaps the continuous halliday ses-
ion would be desirable but only that the remaining
half day would give the parents opportunity get acquant-

country lead them to love of nature play with them ETC.
In case OF poor children vacation schools should rovd
ed In the of rich children where the parents are not
inclined to be vacation school teachers they should at least
be able provide them The mothers also the fathers of
children have responsibilities Moines Leader.

A MOUNTAIN CLIMBER.
Gains "a lbs on Change Of Food.

When a change in food can rebuild a
man n years of age, it is evidence that
there is some value in q knowledge that
can discriminate in the selection OF
proper food to rebuild the body. A
few months ago the physician attending
Warren s. johnson, of Colfax, Cal, II
years old, told him that death from old
age would soon claim him. He suffered
from general weakness and debility.
An old lady advised him to quit coffee
and drink Postum Cereal Food Coffee
and to eat Grape Nuts breakfast food
every morning He took the advice,
and has gained II pounds. Says he is
as well as he ever was, and can take
long trips in the mountains, which he
has been unable to do for a. long time.
There is a reason for this; in the first
place, coffee acts as a direct nerve de-
stroyer on many highly organized peo-
pie, both old and young, and many peo-
pie haven't the knowledge to select
nourishing. hea1thful, rebuilding food
Both Postum Food Coffee and Grape
Nuts breakfast food are made from Sc
lected parts of the field grains that con-
tain delicate particles of phosphate of
potash and albumen. These two ele-
ments combine in the human body to
quickly rebuild the gray matter in the
brain and in the nerve centers through
out the body.
Direct, sure. and certain results come
from their use and can be proven by
any person that cares to make the
trial Both the Postum Food Coffee and
Grape-N Nuts are kept by ali hrst-class

ITALIANS PROTEST
Against Lack of Respect Shown for
Their Dead King.

washington. Aug. ga protest has
been sent to the italian legation by the
leading Italians of Louisville, KY,
against the recent action of Very Rev.
DR.. Bouchet, vicar general of that do
cese in refusing to conduct solemn
mortuary service in honor of King Hum
bert's memory. 1t alleges that Father
Bouchet had consented to offer simple
low mass for this purpose, but declined
to hold any more elaborate service
The present bishop of Louisville, DR..
William McCloskey, was formerly con-
nected with the American college in
Rome and therefore has decided views
on the differences existing between the
vatican and quirinal since 1870. Whether
his feelings on the question have prompt
ed him to support Father Bouchet's at
titude against paying extreme honor to
King Humbbert's memory is not known,
but the fact that he sustains his vicar
generals contention leads many Italians
to infer so. Archbishop Martinelli en-
joys the right in this country Of discip-
lining any priest or prelate for breach OF
duty. but since the present action or
DR.. Bouchet is no infraction of the
moral law it is evident that neither him
self nor his local superior, Bishop Nc
Closkey, will incur any severe penalty.
