THE CUTTING CASE.

The claim of the Mexicans in the Cut
ting case is that it is also enforcing Texan
laws, that happen to be precisely the same
as Mexican laws regarding libel Ii
should be enough for Mexico to admins
ter her own laws. Cutting published his
libel on American soil. Itwas an ofense
under the Texan Code. Had it been pub
lished on Mexican soil il would have been
an oifense against the Mexican Code. But
because the two codes alike recognize the
crime, should that justify trial in either
country for the commission of an ofense
in the other? 1t must be understood that
the Penal Code of Mexico provides that
an offense committed by foreigner in a
foreign country may come within the
jurisdiction Of Mexican Courts, provided
the foreigner is taken upon Mexican soil,
and provided also that the ofiense with
which lie is charged IS crime according
TO the law of the place where it is COM
mitted as we'll as according to Mexican
law Obviously We cannot recognize this
as authorizing the seizure Of one of our
citizens on Mexican soil for an ofense
committed in our territory. Cutting had
first published his libel in Mexico. He
was arrested and signed 4 retraction. He
then came over into Texas and reproduced
and added to the libel, saying that the re-
traction was made under duress. Going
again over the line and circulating his
paper in Mexico, he was arrested, tried
and convicted, and has been sentenced
This is the whole of the case. We have
no sympathy with Cutting. He is an ass.
He has deliberately provoked this trouble
and hopes for notoriety from it. But the
principle involved IS one of great i'm
portance to preserve; TO wit, that for an
ohense committed on American soil by an
American citizen no foreign power shall
take the offender. The one thing that
may take the case outside Of the principle,
and keep Cutting in prison to the end of
his term, is the fact Of his circulating the
libel in printed form in Mexican territory.
If that was uttering and publishing as
usually understood, it is likely he viii be
held. His friends claim that as the
ofiense originated in Texas, the circulation
in Mexico constituted no new ofense.
And here the case rests Our belief is
that Cutting is unlawfully held.

THE Gyu1A1-JANsK1 AFFAIR.

News notes have spoken Of the desire Of
the Austrian Emperor to quiet the i'll feel
ing among the Magyars, due to the Gyulai-
Janslli affair This episode has stirred the
Hungarians deeply, and if there is any one
thing Austria avoids it is excitement in
Hungary, except when Hungarians are
needed to do battle A little less than
three months ago. some Austrian soldiers
at Buda-Pesth decorated with evergreens
the monument of Henri, the Austrian
General who fell before the Hungarian
assault on Buda-Pesth in 1849. General
Janski, commanding brigade, was par
ticipant in the decoration. This brought
mob of Hungarians to his house, which
broke in the windows and heaped indignity
upon the General, who fed the city. Gen
eral Leopold Won Edlsheim-Gyulai was in
command in the city, and ignored the
assault upon Janski. Thereupon the peo-
pie concluded that Gyulai approved of
their assault upon Janslli, but the Austrian
soldiery, and most of the rank of the army,
stood by the cause of the fleeing General,
holding that he had exercised personal
privilege in crowning the monument with
bays and so q complaint went up to the
Emperor against Gyulai as too partial to
the Hungarian element for an Austrian
commander. He possesses large estates III
Hungary, and having lived dozen years
or more at Pesth, had every reason to keep
on good terms with the people. The out
cry made against him led him to tender
his resignation, by which the army LOST its
finest cavalry officer. The Emperor &C
cepted the resignation. A Croatian was
gwen the place, General Pejacsavics. Atthe
same time he distinguished JansIi by pro-
motion, and put Gyulai on the retired list,
From these acts the Magyars drew the
conclusion that the reward of Janski and
the removal of Gyulal were to be con-
strued as rebuke to the Hungarian ele-
ment and the spirit and unity that keeps
it together in the seeming of nationality,
Notwithstanding the union that binds
Hungary to Austria, and gives the former
almost equivalent power in the legislative
halls with the latter, and that recognizes
and upholds certain prerogatives of Hun
gary. On this subject, therefore, the En-
peror is to explain himself, and bring calm
to small sea Of trouble
Sacramento daily record-union. [volume] (Sacramento [Calif.]) 1875-1891, 1886-08-14

referred to this subject except 10 point a |,
lesson and put on record the fact that Sae-
ramento was shabbily treated by San
Francisco, and that our guests are wit
resses to the fact. 1t is unpleasant to DO
this, but the ofiense has been so often re-
peated that patience is no longer virtue.
The guests of the State, not Of San Fran
cisco alone, looked in vain in the press of
that city for any statements above mere
generalities that encouraged them to Gene
here, and this fact, coupled with the pri-
waite Misrepresentation made To them, i'm
pressed them uniavornbly regarding the
trap When next san Francisco asks in
terror favor for her special benefit II may
be well to remember that she does not rec
ognize the obligations Of neighborly reci-
procity. Certainly the committees at the
Bay were free from blame. We know they
favored the excursion, that they bought
large block of tickets for it,
and used their influence to conserve 1t.
But they were very busy committees, and
! the positions they held TO the guests made
their solicitations take On a matter of
course" air. a vulgar prejudice exists
against Sacramento at the metropolis be-
cause it is the Capital City, and not a sub
urb Of San Francisco. This is a well
known fact, and has long been recognized
by our people. We can wiring commenda-
tory expression from our seIf-sufHcient
brethren of the peninsula only when it
would be wicked stubbornness to refuse, and
only when the truth and the fact are so
forcefull as not to be denied Possibly
there may be a change in these conditions
some day. Possibly some day the journal
ism of San Francisco will be less selfish,
broader in its conception OF what consti-
tutes a State, and more generous in its
treatment of the valley interior; but we
fear it will not come about in many q
year, since the force of habit and the sell
fishness Of prejudice are as lasting as life
