dents tomorrow. Ell PasO is already
filled to overlooking with visitors, and
similar conditions exist in Cuidad

here in force, and. forgetting their
hatred of the 'greasers," they will
pay tunuituOus tribute to Diaz. nj
as for Mr.. Taft-that gentleman had
better provide wadding for his auricu-
lar organs. Texas and New Mexican
cowboys are some prone to ebullient
Outbursts and any Welkics left laying
around loose in FL Paso tomorrow
will certainly be split.
The president is due here al about

which,, translated into the language of
the effete east, is whereabouts ten
O'Clock. After what is hoped will be
a most enjoyable time, he will leave
at 8 o'clock tomorrow evening for San
Antonio. He will gain some idea of
the magnificent distances of Texas by
the fact that the trip will occupy
nearly two rounds of the clock-and
he will still be in southwest Texas.

open door in the Orient. Somebody
insists upon shutting ii in our faces
Sometimes the responsibility is laid
upon the Japanese. Sometimes it is
laid upon the Chinese. Sometimes it
is laid upon both together. In tine
end we may find that it belongs partly
to 10th and wholly to neither. and
that. some Of our friends across the
sea are behind the door when it is
shut, and will feel safer and more COM
Portable there if il ever can be locked

Although the policy Of the open
door was ioudly acclaimed at the time
of it's adoption, on the initiative of the
United States. there were those who
saw even then that it had h serious
defect of being open to persistent vio-
lation by those nearest Manchuria,
with small means of detecting the
violations palpably, although they
might be very palpable in themselves.
Worse yet, the treaty was one of that
sort which is difficult of enforcement
in other ways. Compelling the OBJ
servance of such a treaty by force Of
arms is. of course, out of the ques-
ton, and maintaining the degree Of
watchfulness needed to keep it in
force by peaceful means involves in
trigue and other questionable meth
DDS which we have always Stunned
as OF being d part of what we have
been proud to call our shirt sleeves
diplomacy"
'Shirt-sleeves diplomacy never
would have negotiated such a treaty
as hat of the open door. Shirt
sleeves diplomacy is a pledge that
there are no cards help up the sleeves
of the man who sits in the game with
his coat off. 1t is evidence OF a square
deal and fair play. The diplomacy of
the open doOr was made with our
coats on, and, as a result. we have
constantly to watch the other players
to keep them from watching us. The
open door may have beer the best
way put Of it, but since the door has
been shut, it has dawned upon us that
We are too much out of it. We will
protest and see what comes of it.

This state of affairs has not been
