No Pan.American Monroeism.

1t is neither a matter of surprise
nor regret that the United States rep
resentatives at the Pan-American con-
gress at Buenos Ayres failed to en-
thuse over the proposal that the Mon
roe doctrine be adopted as the policy
Of all American nations, for before
such action could be viewed with any
degree Of satisfaction by the United
States, its actual purpose would have
to be thoroughly understood.
The Monroe doctrine as the United
States policy of dealing with foreign
interference with American affairs has
been demonstrated by eighty years Of
practical experience to be for this ma
ton the wisest policy it has been able
to devise, but whether 1t would be
wise to consent to its acceptation as
a Pan-American doctrine depends al
together upon the motive underlying
the proposal. For us to enforce the
Monroe doctrine against European in
terlopers is one thing and for us to let
any South American government with
out responsibility force us to assume
its grievances quite another.
1t is patent fact that many of the
South American nations are sensitive
of their seeming position of depend
ence upon the United States advice
and protection in certain phases of
international relations and that they
would be only too glad to welcome
any arrangement by which they could
their own affairs with respect to other
foreign powers and, more than this,
they would like nothing better than
the privilege of being in a position to
help decide when and under what con-
ditions the Monroe doctrine should be
applied. II will not do to presume
too strongly upon the Wilderness of
the Pan-Americanf spirit. We have
had ample proof of this in late years
and even In recent months Mr., Bryan
in a very recent article In the Ameri-
can Exporter regrets the evident lack
of friendly association, politically and
commercially, between the United
States and the South American coun-
tries. So long as this lack is apparent,
no matter what the causes or remedies
may seem to be, Just so long viii it be
wise for the United States to repel
every eneroachment upon it's exclusive
responsibility for the assertion of this
doctrine. All the nations will be much
better OF If we do this, and, Of course
there is no likelihood Of the United
States relinquishing its position and
taking a subordinate place under the
smaller Pan-American republics.

While the farmers or Washington
state are crying for help to save their
harvests, which are abundant, the
schools in some counties of the same
state are appealing for young women
to come and teach the children, In
both cases the call is to the young, the
swift-the man and woman with a will
to do and a grit to dare. And, more
over, this Macedonian cry comes for
those who will not tire OF the heat and
burden of the day, but will cast their
lots and build their homes and carve
their fortunes in Washington, this
great Inland Empire" of the Pacific
northwest. So It is permanent and
not transltory workers who are
wanted.
This looks like Cupid's opportunity
Why not? Why could not many
young men and young women, deep in
love, rich in the airy, fairy dreams OF
new castles in new lands, mellow in
the rhapsody of romance, join hands
buckle on the armor OF Industry, mix
finance with fantasy and go out to this
borderland and tackle the job to-
gether? 1t has every aspect of a prac.
tical romance. II there is such thing

way. by which time the young woman
would be starting in on her pay dirt
and then they could strike the same
lead for long digging together. Many
young men and women could do much
worse, our western friends think.
But in the meantime what of the op-
portunities that lie nearer at home
