AN UNLIKELY STORY.

We are indisposed to believe a dis
patch that came over the wires on Sat
urday to be accurate concerning the
representations made by the President
and Secretary of State regarding the
threat of General Weyler to execute
General Rivera of the Cuban insur-
gents. The dispatch stated that in the
protests and appeal of the President
and Secretary addressed to the Span
ish Minister the former had said that
if Rivera should be executed they fear
ed the fact would arouse such feel
ing in the United States among the
people as would emba11ass the Gov
eminent Ministers of monarchs some
times use such expressions, speak OF
the sentiment of the people being IRE
sistible. etc, but we do not believe that
it lies in the mouth of the admins
tration of a republic, such as ours, to
employ that argument.
1t implies that the executive and the
people whom he represents are not in
harmony concerning the matter in
hand; that the Chief Magistrate Is
willing and anxious to refrain from
rendering even sympathetic aid to the
Cuban insurgent cause, but that such
acts as are threatened relative to Cen
eral Rivera and his aid-de-camp would
be liable to put the people into fever
"a IA
administration to yield much against
It's will. If it is true, which, as stated
we are unwilling to believe, that the
President and Secretary used the rep
resentation accredited to them, it hu-
initiates every right thinking citizen of
the Republic, and makes us pause to
consider if this is a Government of the
people or of a superior power.
The resolutions passed by the United
States Senate ON Monday have the
right ring. They simply set forth that
if it is true that Rivera is to be tried
at drumhead court-martial and shot
then it is the duty of the President to
protest against such violation of the
rules of civilized warfare. There is no
reference to fear of the anger of the
American people; no weak excuse Of
fered for the protest; nothing regarding
Cuban independence or recognition OF
belligerency. but on the contrary a dis
tinct implication that if the protest which
it is advised that the President should
make is unheeded the United States
will consider the action an affront by
Spain, and what that means all diplo-
mats and governments we'll understand.
The resolution might have been
stronger and not have passed beyond
the bounds of justifiable expression.
We repeat we cannot bring thought
to admission that the administration
has made any such representation to
Spain as is referred to in the outset of
this article If, unhappily, it should
turn out to be true, we will have cause
to blush for the gross mistake that was
made.

A New York newspaper sent a cor
respondent to Minister De LONE at
Spanish nobleman as to what news a
newspaper should print. The Spaniard
replied, "A newspaper should print only
the truth. / believe in no censorship
but truth" Aye, but there's the rub:
who shall determine at all times what
the truth is? The Minister would have
served the reporter with a better an
swer had he replied that all news
paper man has to do to make his paper
what 1t should be, is to put conscience

the knowledge, that so many forms OF
