WASHINGTON LETTER.
Special Correspondence to the Herald
from the Nations Capital.


The success of President Roose-
velt's efforts to promote peace be-
tween Russia and Japan is a triumph
for that so-called 'shirt-sleeve dip
lomacy" inaugurated by Secretary
John Hay. Frankness and direct
ness are the chief attributes of the
shirt-sleeve diplomacy and when
administered by President Roose.
welt, suddenness also plays an i'm
portant part. The President gave
Russian no time to recover from
the shock incident to- the destruc-
ton of her navy, or from the grief
incident to the loss OF numerous
friends and brothers. He gave
Japan no time to recover from that
access of good feeling which natural
~ followed SO sweeping victory
and while Europe was dreaming OF
what might be, he suggested in un-
equivocal terms to both belligerents
that this was an excellent place to
stop, and his suggestion appealed
to both. It was the psychological
moment and he grasped it.
Sweden and Norway are about tc
inaugurate the custom of peaceful
revolutions. Perhaps the world
moves in more ways than one.
Morocco is making an awful
fuss among the nations of Europe,
and yet from it's size as well as its
name one would think it was only a
kid" in the family of nations.
Messrs. Gaynor and Green need
have no fear that the bureau OF
immigration will apply the law
prohibiting the admission of Grimm

If Russia will adopt senate and
house instead Of "Gosudarst-
vennaia" and "Gosudarstvennaia
Duma," she may expect us to take a
more lively interest in her political
affairs.
1t is authoritatively announced
that the good ship Democracy is laid
up for repairs-not interned.
President Roosevelt still keeps
up his jiu jitsu practice, his boxing
lessons and his cross-country runs.
He is evidently bound to be in good
form when he meets the senate in
that little railroad controversy
next winter.
