The New York TriJuHe which. from the
first, has been clearly right in the Cutting
case, puts strong point very clearly, thus;
IfCutting had stood on the American bank
OF the Rio Grande and with a rifle Killed Me-
dina on the other shore, would not the crime
have been committed on Mexican soil, where
the man was hit! In like manner the libel,
while printed on the Texas side of the river,
was circulated on Mexican SOIL and jurl5dic-
tlon can be claimed with justice where the
mischief was actually done.
II Cutting had been domiclled on the
American side and had remained there
after sending his vile sheet into Mexico, the
case would have been very different. AL
though he might have been tried, con-
Vlcted, and sentenced by the Mexican court
in his absence, as more than one American
citizen has been by the courts OF France,
the sentence could not have been carried
out, but would have remained In suspense
ready to fall on him If he could be caught
within Mexican Jurisdiction. There are
well-known American citizens who dare
not enter France for the reason that penal
sentences have been passed on them in that
country for alleged crimes against citizens
of France. One of these cases is that of a
very prominent and highly respected eS
officer of our army.

THE Irish World complains that the Rev.
j. L. Curry, the parson sent to Spain to
represent the United States at the court of
Madrid, has written letter 30 the New
York hdpeadcH, in which he airs his
know-noth!ngism. Here is specimen Of
what he has to say "President Cleveland
in his message uttered wise and weighty
words about naturalization and American
citizenship. One Of the evil fruits of the
extension Of citizenship is that the preiu-
dices, aud rivaliies, and hates Of other lands
are incorporated into American politics.
Questions pertaining to foreign govern
ments aud foreign peoples are made para
mount to questions which affect our own
national welfare and national existence"
Parson Curry is probably dissatisfied with
American expressions of sympathy with
Ireland In herstruggle for self,goyernm3nt
But we quite agree with the Irish IVOrid in
the opinion that 1t would be extremely dilll-
cult to show In what way the Irish question
has been made paramount to questions
which affect our own national welfare and
national existence"

Editor Dana's Sun eXalts its horn aud
blows jubilant blast over the Ohio Demo-
cratic platform because it ignores civil
service reform. 1t says;
When the Ohio Democratic convention re-
fused toapprove that policy 1t fairly represented
the sentiment and conviction Of the Democrats
Of that state and of the Union generally. Mora
than that, it acted in accordance with the feel.
ing of nine-tenths of the people, without re.
gard to party, for all except a very small pOr-
tion OF the voters are either Indifferent or hos
tile to what Is described as civil service re.
form, They do not care anything about 1t, or
they look on 1t with aversion as a humbug and
an innovation inconsistent with the theory OF
our political system.
Beyond question more than nine-tenths
Of the voters have unbounded contempt
for the sham that passes for "reform" un-
der the present administration. But If the
law were honestly carried out, SO that its
results would be strictly partisan, 1t would
command the respect OF great majority OF
voters.

A NInrwmmnlnn Moan.

The Brooklyn Union, melancholy aud
pessimistic Mugwump newspaper, solemuly
reviews the Democratic state conventions
Of the week, and thereupou remarks that
"the most significant fact made plain by
these conventions is that the party does
not comprehend, or, II it comprehends, does
not appreciate and approve, the most inn
portant work done by the President by
his sincerity as civil service reformer,
which is, in fact, the single positive piece OF
political work done this year and half.'
It's impossible for anybody but Mug
wump to read such rot as that without a
feeling of pity or contempt, or mixture OF
both, forthe writer. 1t is an established fact,
that President Cleveland has beaten the
record of jackson, or any other President
Of any party, as a "bouncer" OF ofllee'
holders on purely partisan grounds. 1t Is
notorious that, under the present
administration, the civil service law
which was faithfully administered under
Arthur--has been prostltuted until
the commission has become a part of the
Democratic party mechanism. 1t is as we'll
| known In this city as the existence OF the
Washington monument or tue iocatlou vi
the capitol that the departmental service
has been demoralized in numerous bureaus
by cunningly devised evaslons OF the letter
and absolute desertlon Of the spirit OF the
civil service law. But the Union, after
patting itself on the head and glancing at a
| mirror in order to admire the beauty OF
holiness, goes on to say:
\ rr1FvriIr'r ff-urrv- phtty uJuytar itaSift"td
stand with Mr.. Cleveland, II Is slow to learn O
lesson so plainly taught, and gives no reason
why men who have lacked trust in its pru
dence and knowledge of public affairs should
have any greater trust now than hitherto.
Well, there was no reason to give, foi
tall the world and the rest of mankind
do know of surety that the record mad,
by this administration has not been such a.
to convince any sane man that the Demo
cratic party has improved in 'prudenct
and knowledge Of public affairs" In thit
statement the ablest Democratic newspapers
infercntialIy concur for they lead all com
petltors In criticising those specific acts ani
features OF the administration and It's poll
oies which have efTectually prevented any
growth OF confidence.
