Talk About the West Letter.

OPINION ON BOTH SIDES OF THE ATLANT1c-A
POSSIBLE SUCCESSOR To THE BRITISH MINISTER.
report comes from Canada, purporting to
be based on information from London, that
Sir Charles Upper is to succeed Minister West
as British minister at Washington.
A London special to the New York Eoening
Sun, says: "This afternoon Lord Salisbury sent
from the foreign Office a message in cipher to
Lord Sackville suggesting that his accession to
the peerage and increased responsibilities of a
private nature would offer sufficient excuse
for his retirement from his post at Washington"
The London press still comments on the sub
ject, generally assuming that Lord Sackville
will be recalled
The Fall Mall Gazette regrets that Americans
are not superior to such outbursts of feeling.
Except for the chance Of catching the Irish
vote by abusing England, it thinks that no one
in America would care two straws what Lord
Sackville wrote, said or thought.
The Globe seems to think that all that is
necessary is to tell Lord Sackville to keep his
opinion to himself
The 81. James Gdze1e maintains that Lord
Sackyille cannot remain at Washington. 1t
says he should have known better than to walk
into a net spread before his eyes.
In an interview in Indianapolis, Ex-senator
Joseph L. Mcdonald expresses the opinion
that the letter of Minister West will help in
stead of hurt the democratic party.
Speaker Carlisle is quoted as saying that the
letter can do the democrats no damage.
HOW BRITIsH-AMERIcAN CITIZENS FEEL.
The newly-organized National British-Amer-
lean Association of the United States has is
sued an address to the public on the subject of
the British minister's letter, in which it is de-
clared that naturalized British citizens of the
United States do not affiliate with one party
more than with another. The trick, by which
the British minister was entrapped into the
present political contest, is severely repre-
hended, and an appeal is made to ali fair and
honorable citizens, without reference TO their
nationality or place of birth, to repudiate at
this time any man or party seeking political
advantages under guises 30 false and dishonest
or pretenses so contrary to reason, msnliness,
and common decency.
