Minister de Lone has learned the truth
of the old adage that speech is silver and
silence is golden.-Rochester Union and
Advertiser.
Minister de LONE expressed his poor
opinion of Americans in print many years
ago. After apologizing for that he should
not have repeated the offense.-St. Louis
Globe Democrat.
At its worst the incident is purely per-
sonal one, and is not likely to make any
change in the official relations of the
Washington and Madrid Governments,
other than change of ministers.-Buffalo
Express.
Dupuy de LONE has been writing in
Spanish what he thinks of President Nc

order that President Mckinley may ex-
press his opinion Of Dupuy de LONE

| The consequences growing out Of this

other power concerned, but with Spain
involved there is no telling what may be
the result of it.-Cincinnafi Commercial

What Spanish minister may say of
this country is of small account compared

| in Cuba. They ought to be stopped before
even an insulting foreign minister can
be sent home.-New York Sun.
For such an offense on the part Of a
minister recall is no proper atonement
There should be an apology from the Mad
rid Government, and that apology should
be accompanied by the assurance that Du-
puy de LONE is never again to be en-
ployed in the diplomatic service of Spain
New York World
| A just Judge is not swayed from the

LOT either Htigant's attorney. This Gov
i eminent will still obey the dictates of rea-
son and of justice, and it is to be believed
that in so doing it will command the con
tinued friendship of Spain and at the
same time serve the ends of peace and of
humanity in Cuba.-New York Tribune.
/ In Cuba the instruction and its lead
ers will be encouraged, as Senior de LONE,
| like Gen. Weyler, returns fooled to Mad
rid. In the United States a. fresh con-
tempt will be felt for this expression Of
sentiments for which every consideration
demanded concealment and which in the
case Of the Spanish minister, his long,
4 courteous and hospitable treatment should
have precluded. Philadelphia Press.
/ De Iome's letter is heinous diplomatic
offense. 1t is personal communication
only in FORM Written by the Spanish
! minister to a man high in the councils of
I! Madrid, and treating almost wholly Of
public questions affecting Spain and the
4 United States, it is in the highest sense
a public document OF which this Govern
nent must take cognizance.-NcW York
