The RxtradiOn Matter.
The Pail Mall Gazette, editorially on the
extraditiOn question, says:
We are still Of the opinion that the scan-
dial of WinslOw's liberation might have been
avoided, or the responsibility attaching to
England considerably lightened had diff
ferent attitude been assumed at an earlier
stage OF the proceedings, as far as this Case
is concerned. Lord Granville had the best
of the argument but regarding future cases
there is an unbouDded force in Lord Der
by's plea, that az soon as conflict of views
was IN anifested the extradition arrangement
could be too soon revised.
The article quotes Lcrd Derby's exposi-
ton of the American and English cOnten-
ton regarding their reciprocal rights and
duties under the treaty, and continues:
We sh Ould have supposed, to anybody APP
prOa ching this question with an unbiased
judg m emit, doubt about which theory was
the more rational would be hardly possible.
The two simple principles of universal &C.
cept ance-one that civilized nations have
com mon interest in depressing crime the
other that men are justitable according
to the procedure of the country Of their
alleg ance and no other, would seem
to supply ample material for de-
csion in favor of the American view.
The rival theory appears to us utterly IN
tenable except upon the assumption, which
has no natural foundation in justice or il
ternational duty, that a refugee acquires
new rights as against the courts Of his own
country by the mere fact of having escaped
to foreign land. 1t is the first public move
ment toward the overthrow Of an exagger-
Ated theory of refugee criminal rights,
which have so strangely grown up of late
years, that we welcome the speeches of
Earl Kiberry and Earl Grey in Mondays
debate.
