There is not a doubt that every
incident calculated to fire the pop.

will be magnified and enlarged
upon until it will appear to the
wearer of green spectacles that the

and with malice prepens offered
an indignity to the American flag
1t is the old case Of the wolf and
the lamb drinking at the same

papers in this country and filibus-
tiers all over the coast regions who
live on the hopes of a descent upon
Cuba. Uncle Sam has no use for
that island. 1t is foreign in lam

Gresham has bullied Spain into
an apology for an act the real facts
concerning which he knows moth
ing about. The Spanish gunboat
commander says that the vessel he
fired upon had been carrying rifles,
was only one and half miles from
shore and refused to come to when
ordered and hoisted the English
flag when challenged. His actions
will be enquired into at Havana.
If his report is verified it will put
Gresham into the same old hole he
usually occupies when any foreign
complication arises. This is the
view taken by the foreign diplo.
mats and it will be sustained.
