A TOO FACILE PEX.
The Do Lome incident may be the
menus of bringing the relations bo.
tweeu this country ami Spain to a
severe crisis. While nobody would
pa attention, under ordinary cir
cumstances, to what some Spaniard
might think of the personal qualities
of William McKiuley, yet when the
representative of one government
shows such utter disrespect for the
chief executive of another, the rules
of international lav arc violated to
Bucb an extent that the incident can
not pass unnoticed. The term
'jingo" is used generally In an op
probrious sense, yet among the so
called "jingos" are found the best of
American citizens, who Uestrc noth
ing more than that the rights and
honor of the American nation should
be maintained with dignity, both at
home arc! abroad.
De Lome, or any other Spaniard,
has little cause to complain of the
treatment Spain has received from
the United States government. In
the minds of most people this treat
ment has been too lenient. Spain
deserves nothing from humanity, and
by her conduct of the war in Cuba,
has forfeited consideration from
nations pretending to be civilized.
A few more breaks like the cue Dc
Lome made, and this government
will take a hand in earnest in Cuba,
and it would not be a source of
much regret if the present incident
should bring about such a result.
Senor Do Lome would do well to
remember the old adage that "it is
wise never to burn a letter or write
one."
No feature of Speaker Reed is
more pronounced than that which
phrenologists call "human nature."
If he is strong it is because he reads
men aright and because he is wise to
"know that what the people want is
the thing that they will have. They
may be delayed in getting it, but
they get it at last. Mr. Reed is a
fine exemplification of Lincoln's
apothegm that men may w.'bble, but
after all, they wabble to a right con
clusion. He seems to be obstinate,
Tjut when he finds that the people do
not come to him, he always goes to
them. He knows when to hold and
when to let go. In the Hawaiian
matter the speaker will let the peo
ple have their own waj Convinced
that a majority of the voters of the
United States, without regard to
party, wish for the annexation of
Hawaii, he not onlj will not obstruct
but will facilitate the gratification of
their desire. He is of the wise men
who rule by ruling always as the
best and wisest part of the people
would have him rule.
The Leutgert trial has been so
Jong drawn out that public interest
outside of Chicago has, in a great
measure, subsided. The verdict of
guilty will come to most people,
however, as a satisfactory vindica
tion of the law. The statute of Illi
nois, which permits the jury to fix
the penalty in cases of this 'kind, is
undoubtedly n wise one, and allows
of more convictions where men arc
unwilling to 6ee capital punishment
inflicted. The question of whether
or not capital punishment is morally
defensible is open for wide discus
sion; but when the jury is allowed to
determine the penalty Its abolishment
is, not necemry.
When the sheep-growers' conven
tion and the G, A. R. encampment
are held in The Dalles some meas
ures should be taken to provide elec
tric lights for our streets. We must
put on our best appearance when the
visitors are here, so they may carry
away pleasant Impressions of the
town. To wallow around in muddy
streets is bad enough at any time,
but it would be the occasion of much
chagrin should our guests be com
pelled to do so.
The people who dwell in the
Transvaal know a good thing when
they have it. Paul Krugrr, whose
brain is better tlan his looks, hns
jilst been re-elected president of the
sturdy South African republic. Kng
