ussoUyD ADVICE FROM GOMEZ.

The most thoughtful and judicious friends or
Cuba must we believe, regret the tone of the
advice which General Maxine Gomez has just
been giving his countrymen in the form OF an
open letter on the coming constitutional conven-
ton. Briefly stated, it is an appeal-n not
something stronger-for the election of none as
delegates who do not belong to the revolution
airy party, and, indeed. for the exclusion OF all
except revolutionists even at the cost Of force.
The convention should not be made representa-
tive of the whole Cuban people, but of only the
military faction That is the principle which
General Gomez exhorts his countrymen to
maintain. even at cost of life"
That we say, is most regrettable. 1t is more
than that-it is incompatible with the interests
of Cuba and with the just and benehcent pur-
poses of the United States concerning that ISL
and The United States did not intervene III
Cuba for the sake of the revolutionary party
alone but for the sake of the whole Cuban peo-
pie 1t recognizes no right Of one party to lord
it by force over the others. On the contrary,
this country took pains to make sure in the
Treaty Of Paris. that Spanish subjects should
have an opportunity of becoming Cuban ctti-
zens, that all the people of the Island might
be equal In civil affairs. 1t could not be re-
garded as Of good omen nor as satisfactory TO
the United States, for single and probably a
minority faction of the Cuban people forcibly 10
exclude from the constitutional convention all
representatives of other parties Talk of doing
so, "even at cost of life" is not calculated to
promote the best interests of the island.
OF course, General Gomez, as veteran rev
outionist naturally wishes to see the ideas OF
bis faction prevail We cannot quarrel with
him for so doing If his followers are in the
majority in the island, they will doubtless elect
a majority of the delegates to the convention.
If they are the entire Cuban people, they will
have the whole convention on their side. But
if other important parties exist they should be
fairly represented in the convention, if the
latter is to have any moral force. The advice
given by General Gomez is calculated. If not
intended to intensity party animosities, and to
maintain old hatreds-possibly to aggravate
them into open feuds and civil war. 1t is IN
sound and unsafe. 1t is idle for General Gomez
to keep on talking Of the revolution. The rev.
olution is past and ended. Peace, and har-
mony, and union, what the island now
needs And the men who should frame its new
constitution are the men who have such ends in
view and at heart, and not the men who would
make the state Of revolution perpetual.

NEW TREATY WITH SPAIN.
RELATIONS OF COMMERCE AND AMIrY
PRACTICALLY RESTORED.

Washington. Aug. 21.-ATinister Storer. at
Madrid. informs the State Department that a
treaty OF amity. commerce, navigation and
general intercourse has been signed provision
ally by the Minister of State and himself This
practically marks the last step In the complete
restoration OF relations between Spain and the
United States
The new treaty modernizes the treaty rela-
lions between the two nations. Prior to the
severance of all communication upon the decla-
ration of with Spain. the two Govern
ments were proceeding under the terms Of
treaty negotiated in the last century II was
cumbersome. and in some respects wholly in
applicable TO existing conditions. one provision
for instance. relating TO trade between the
United States and Florida as a colony Of Spain
Several efforts were made TO remedy the de-
fects, but only one was partially successful
the adoption OF the Gushing protocol The last
attempt made when Mr.. Olney was Score
tary of State. but the strained relations CROWNS
out of Cuban affairs caused the effort to fail
1t is understood that Minister Storer negotiated
with Dupuy de LONE. former Spanish Minister
to the United States. and now the Under Score
tary of State who, of course, Is thorouShly
conversant with all the conditions OF trade
Although the general provisions are not
known in detail at this stage. 1t is understood
that the instrument provides the usual facilities
for inter-communication. and probably contains
provisions which carry out those relations grow
ing Of the territorial changes resulting from
the war.
