ANERICA ~ CHINA.

That is a strange statement now current, that
there is fear that trouble viii be caused in
China by Americas insistence upon the policy
OF the open door, and that Americas "conI-
paratively Insignificant interests in China give
her little title TO interference in the pending dis
putes. 1t IS we believe. indisputable that all
the powers concerned. and especially Russia,
have formally pledged themselves to the main
tenance Of the open door in China. suggested
by the United States. Russia indeed. has gone
80 far as to emphasize her adherence to it with
the declaration that she gave it not merely be-
cause the United States asked it. but also be-
cause she believed in that policy for its and for
her own sake. In such circumstances the
United States surely cannot be called unduly
exigent or meddlesome if it insists that those
pledges shall be fulfilled. Surely 10 friendly
nation means 10 put itself in the anomalous Do
sitiOn OF making promise and then complain
Eng and showing resentment because fulflmept
Of that promise is expected
We cannot, either. take well the point that
American interests in China are con parativelv
Insignificant" With political interests we have
nothing al present to DO. 1t is commercial in
terests that are under consideration. Russla's
political interests may largely transcend ours i'm
China. Certainly our commercial interests as
largely uauSceDu nefS. Inere are only two
powers In the world whose commercial interests
ia China are as large as ours. It is those in.
terests for which we are contending. The United
States is not seeking political conquests in
China. There was no hint Of any such thing in
its suggestion Of international agreement upon
the open door. But IL wants an open market
for its commerce on equal terms with all OTHER
nations. That is what IL asks, and that is all it
asks. To complain of that as causing resent
ment or threatening trouble is simply TO init
mate that somebody wants TO crowd this coun-
try out Of that marker.
II is difficult too TO see any force in the point
which is reported 10 be raised-that the com
nercial treaty between China and America was
signed after all, despite the stories Of Russian
opposition TO it, II is true that ii was signed
II is equally true that the signing Of ii was long
postponed because Of Russia's opposition, or at
any rate because Of her persistence in occupy

her evacuauon. We Go not suppose any rational

4 MODEL ~ SOME RESPECTS.

The last Of this years principal football games,
which is to be played to-day at Philadelphia, is
in some respects the most interesting of all. OF
course, the annual contest between West Point
and Annapolis has extraordinary attractions
for the graduates of those institutions and for
everybody who is connected in any way with
either service; but the interest in it is by no
means confined to the army and navy and the
regular devotees Of football A large number of
citizens who pay little attention even to the per-
formances Of the big Four like to witness or
at least to read about the yearly encounter on
the gridiron Of the young men who are prepar-
ing themselves for more fateful, If hardly more
arduous conflicts in the service Of their coun-
try. 1t would have been disappointment and
possibly a misfortune If the military and naval
academies had not succeeded in adjusting their
differences and getting ready for to-day's game
Though the seasons football record has dis
credited most Of the prophets, IT is safe enough
to say in passing that West Point is generally
expected TO win.
There is another reason, not related to the
status Of the combatants, why the army and
navy game is particularly pleasing spectacle
its atmosphere is more completely amateur than
that Of any contest between other colleges. The
players are guests at Franklin Field, and so are
the spectators. The only tickets sold are the
few which get into the hands of spectators in
spite of strict precautions. There is no sugges-
ton Of heavy expenses in training, which huge
gate receipts are needed to defray. 1t is known
that the requirements of study, drill and dis
cipline at West Point and Annapolis have not
been relaxed in the slightest degree in favor of
the members of the rival elevens. The cadets
and midshipmen have learned to play the game
In the brief intervals which the regulations
leave at their disposal without the elaborate
aids TO proficiency which have come to be re-
garded as Indispensable by the football depart-
ments of other institutions of learning. The
task Of turning out creditable team is Quietly
accomplished by simple means
1t does not follow, because these things are
so and the consequences are entirely gratifying
that Princeton, Harvard Yale, Columbia ard
the rest could as easily as not initiate the ex-
ample which the authorities make COMPULSORY
at West Point and Annapolis. For one thing
physical culture is an important part of the
course at the military and naval academies so
that the students being in fine condition all the
time, need less special development to acquire
the requisite strength and endurance for atb
letic sports Except on the occasion Of the an
nual game, they play only on their home
grounds and for that and other reasons their
necessary expenses are comparatively small.
But we believe there is an increasing conviction
that the elaborate scale on which college sports
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1903-11-28
NOT TO THEIR CREDIT.

The fact that a crank found nothing to pre-
vent him from entering the church where Presi-
dent Roosevelt attending his uncles lu-
neral yesterday and putting letter into ms
hand is not creditable to those who were
charged with the Presidents protection. In
deed, the incident almost gives an appearance
OF foolishness to the extraordinary precautions
which had been taken for his security. Seven
hundred policemen lined the streets through
which the President driven. Eight mount
ed officers. a dozen Central Office detectives
and six Secret Service men from Washington
surrounded his carriage, and there was large
guard at the church. Nevertheless man OF
singular appearance and strange ways, with
bag in his hand had no trouble in getting mme-
date access to the President. and might have
fired pistol as easily as he delivered letter.
He ought. furthermore, to have been known
TO the police as an eccentric character, for re-
porters at once recognized him as the man who
made a scene at the dock last spring when MIR.
Carnegie and Mr.. Morgan were starting for
Europe 1t Will hardly do for the Presidents
protectors to say that they knew the man to be
harmless, though queer. and so let him pass.
The fact of his arrest because OF what he had
done is proof and confession Of their previous
ineficiency. This particular individual may be,
and may always remain, harmless, though such
an assumption is perhaps never safe in such q
case; but, for aught we can see, another man.
cherishing a violent purpose. might as readily
have approached the President.
1t is distressing to think that the Chief Mag
istrate of the United States needs tc be sur
rounded by guards wherever he goes, as If he
were tyrant, but inasmuch as the necessity is
admitted, 1t is proper to insist that hole shall
not be left in the defence through which an as
sassin can pass without hindrance.
