The sentiment as felt is best expressed by
these words OF prominent Brunswick

1.-THE Spanish government. by going TO Sa-
vannah TO have those warrants issued and
calling upon Savannah officials to arrest
these men and hear their prosecution. have
virtually said they would not trust our
own officials TO do their sworn duty, and
as a citizen who loves justice and fair
play and have perfect faith in our local
officials. l can scarcely find words adequate.
'The whole proceeding smacks of Span
ish treachery and deceit OF the most I'M
derhanded sort and should be condemned
by true Americans"

are aware Of the facts The changes in
the situation came with such rapidly as

the appointment "of a board OF inquiry
or an advisory council to be composed
of men of international renown." Why
not leave the whole subject to the
presidents commissioners? Why. In
deed. except to let Mr.. Schurz propose
a committee, with himself member
of 1t, of course, merely to NEEDLE, In
the pay of the chamber of commerce?
This newspaper always thought that
James G. Blaine was pretty good
American When mention is made OF
men of international renown," we
recall Mr. Blaines famous character
ixation Of Schurz. Said Blaine: when
Mr.. Schurz left Germany. he lived for
three years in other countries of Eu-
rope-first in Switzerland, then in
France, then in England. In America
he resided first in Pennsylvania, then
In Wisconsin, then in Michigan, then
in Missouri, then in New York. He has
not become rooted and grounded any
where, has never established home,
is not identified with any community,
has no fixed relations to church or
state, to professional. political or social
life. The political party he upheld yes
terday met with his bitterest denunci-
alton the day before. and tomorrow he
will support the political organization
of whose measures he is the merciless
censor to-day. He aspires to the title
of independent and has described his
own position as that Of a man sitting
on a fence. with clean boots, watching
carefully which way he may leap to
keep out of the mud. He has taken no
pride in appearing under the simple
but lofty title of a citizen of the United
States-he seeks to stand as a repre-
sentative German-American. He has
made his native nationality a political
resource. To Mr.. Schurz the republic
is not great. This country said he, in
his centennial lecture, lis materially
great but morally SMALL"
Long ago. Schurz exhausted the
"German-American" racket. There was
nothing left for him to do but to turn
mugwump, and he is one Of the puny
exemplars of the spineless breed. He
would be glad to stick his nose into
this country's complications with the
English or with anybody else. If there
