The news that St. Petersburg dis
patches deny all knowledge of peace
proposals is not taken here to mean
that the President of the United
States has not been selected to medi-
ate the differences of Russia and jap
an Negotiations it is said are already
in progress and suspension of hosA
tilities is anticipated shortly. 1t is
claimed that the selection of Presi-
dent Roosevelt as a mediator is in
spired by the Japanese but that it
would meet with satisfaction in ST.
Petersburg is undoubtedly true. 1t is
believed in diplomatic circles here that
the peace negotiations may be carried
on in Washington. The President
and Count Cassini, the Russian AM
bassador to this country, are warm
personal friends, and the intimacy ex-
tends to their daughters who are al
most inseparable. Cardial relations
also exist between Prince Kogoro Ia
kahira, the japanese Minister, and the
President, and it is said the Japanese
have an ideal regard for tie Pes
dent both as soldier an executive.

The United States had the chance
IN Santo Domingo by administering
that country's finance to give stability
to her government and by paying off
an reasonable time the debts OF the
Island to keep a European nation out
thereby prevent the establishment of
foreign naval station in the West In
dian waters, but the Senate refused
to see in the act OF the President to-
ward that end anything more than an
assailment of its priced prerogatives
The result was that it held up action
in the matter and adjourned without
vote. Fortunately for that country
as well as our own the President has
seen fit to take a step in giving or
ders that this country shall until the

people. 1t is clearly polite for the
United States Government to straight

try just as it would be 10 save from
the results of their folly our other
small Latin American neighbors. 1t
is gradually becoming sentiment
among our people and an expectation
among our neighbors that the Gulf
of Mexico and the caribbean Sea are
our own peculiar zones of influence
| and just as we have forced Spain out
of Cuba and Porto Rico and made our
| selves the owners of the Panama
Canal we must expect TO extend our
influence to include Santo Domingo
| Haiti and the small republics of Cen
tral America. That this is the view
taken by the people is apparent in the
approval of the Presidents course
which is general When the Senate
meets in the fall it will have had time
to see. that the question is much
graver than one of merely exceeded
prerogativesor assa:led dignity. A
