With far Northwest Manchuria, next the sea and
under the mountains, the United States are perhaps
the least concerned Of all the great Powers. We have
some trade in China; and what, IL anything, should
be done to protect that trade seems to be the imme-
date question presented to our diplomats. ssuming
which is a matter of doubt-that our trade interests
are involved by threatened Russian dominion. On the
whole there appears no great reason for perturbation
in the American breast.
But the laudable spirit Of the Monroe Doctrine, per-
haps a bit perverted, possesses us. One Of our dip
lomats declares that We should set up a Monroe doc
trine in China. Indeed, Monroe doctrines appear to
be the universal vogue, a fad Of diplomacy. England
has just established q British Monroe doctrine, in
Persia, and other countries are setting them I'D else
where: all Of which is extremely gratifying, Indicating
the extent to which our dignifed Western barrier has

But the meaning of our doctrine has been miscon-
