The stories that come from Cuba read like some dark tale of the Mid dle Ages, when the minds of men were narrowed by ignorance and "bigotry and the human heart lost to the feelings of mercy which a refin ing civilization brings. Every day comes news of Spanish outrages. In forty-eight hours twenty prisoners were executed because they were guilty of aiding or sympathizing with the struggle for independence. General Carrpos was recalled be cause his policy was considered too humane, and in his stead was sub stituted a general whose chief quali fication was his reputation for savage butchery. Meanwhile the informal ion is given out that no offer of mediation and no notice of intervention of any character has been made by the United States government to.Spain, find none will be made at present. Thi3 action of President Cleveland's is taken in face of the public declar ation of congress that such offer of mediation should be made upon the part of this government.- Legally the president is not bound by the action of congress, since the resolu- lion is considered an expression of opinion merel v , and not a dictate of procedure; but morally, in view of the course Spain has pursued and the feeling existing among the American people, the president should extend an offer of friendly services to settle a war that blots the page of Nine teenth century civilization. Such a tender would not involve this country in any foreign compli cation for which we are illy prepared. It would simply say to the world that the principles for which our revolutionary fathers fought and ; died still continue the choice, treas ures of the American people; that the right, of liberty and self-government is conceded to any people oppressed as the Cubans are, and that this nation, rich and great as it now is, remembers the time when, like Cuba, it was weak and oppressed. This course of President Cleve land is simply in line with his former actions in matters of like import, a notable example of which was his expressions or Hostility to tue re publican government of - Hawaii Great as were the provocations the intelligent people of Hawaii had, those of the Cubans are infinitely more, and call for the Christian consideration of enlightened Amer ica. ' Consumption, diphtheria and ty phoid fever aie the latest triumphs reported for the Roentgen rays. The cry of ''wolf" has been heard so often and proved unfounded that these heralded cures for dread con sumption occasion little belief among incredulous people. Still, in the light of the wonderful discoveries science is making, the door mav yet be opened for discoveries which shall I make the pale cheek of the wasted sufferer glow with hope. Science has astounded the world with her discoveries and given cause for greater expectations. What a spectacle it would be if the Oregonian woald support the prohibition candidate for congress in the Second district, and yet such action would not be surprising, since McKercher, the candidate in question, has intimated that he would be guided by the views of the Oregonian regarding the cur rency Question. To support the piohibition candidate or a gold standard man under different cir cumstances might be alpropcr thing, but not when it places in jeopardy the election of a man who regularly nominated by a Republican state convention, is pledged to work and vote tor the principles of protection.
