This is edifying. It prompts ae question: How ts it possible to end sat Which was never begun? — +20 A Striking Contrast. Minister Woodford left Madrid last night mid the jeers of a large crowd and cheers or Spain, led by the civil governor of the panish capital. At on> station on the eute his carriage was besieged by detec- ves, who demanded the release from ar- est of an attache of the legation on the round that he was a subject of Spain. he demand was not complied with. At nother station the train was attacked by a .rge mob and windows were broken and assengers were hurt. The riotous demon- ‘rations continued practically all the way ‘om Madrid to the Franch frontier. This vurney of the American diplomatic repre- mtative was in marked and significant ontrast with that of Senor Polo, the Span- ‘4 minister at this capital, who was per- sitted to depart unnoticed and to proceed to neutral ground without a sign of annoy- ing attention. Th2 two episodes afford one more striking example of the difference in the Spanish and the American tempera- ments. The former is excitable, prone to ting a disturbance, thoughtless of con- sequences, unable to foresee results or to appreciate proprieties. The latter is de+ liberate in judgment but quick In action, cr discriminative and seldom uproarious in anger. The Spanish minister, immediately u securing a foothold upon Canadian soil, proceeded to fling insults at the Ameri- can people and government. The American® minister has preserved his dignity at ail times through th trying crisis, whatever faults of procrastination may be laid at his @oors by his own countrymen. He has at no time slurred Spain or the Spanish peo- plz, and even now, after his exciting exper- ience in leaving the country, he has nothing derogatory to say about them. If the Euro- pean galleries, that have been so persist- ently appealed to by Spain in this emer- gency, may chance to be looking and lis- tening, the difference in these two cases can not fail to carry an instructive lesson in national manners. —-- +e ___ Washington Leads the Way. It has be>n definitely determined that the entire net proceeds of the art loan exhibi- tion now in progress in the old Corcoran Gallsry building shall be appropriated for the benefit of the sick and wounded soldiers and sailors engaged in the with Spain. The original purpose of the public-spirited projectors of the exhibit was to devote its profits to som: two or three local charities, but in view of the trresist- ible sweep of events it has been unani- mously decided to give the affair a broader and more patriotic scop: and donate the entire outcome to the purpose above indi- cated. This in every way a most com- mendable conclusion. It makes the national capital very properly th: pioneer In the geod work of raising a relief or comfort fund for the gallant boys in the field and on our ships, and points out to the other cities, hamlets and tewns of the country a line of duty which they should not be and cer- tainly will not be slow to follow. It does another thing which th2 people of Washington themselves should not over- look. It puts upon them the noble duty of Swelling this fund to the largest propor- tions possible. To this end the spacious building should be crowded to its fullest ca- pacity as long as the 2xhibition lasts, and the exhibition itse!f should be prolonged be- yond the term originally set for it. A sight of the rare and beautiful objects on view is in itself and under any circumstances worth much more than th: admission price charged. But this is as nothing. When the proceeds are to b> so worthily applied what might be regarded as the mere source of elevating pleasure becomes a patriotic pub- lic duty. Therefore let the exhibition be continued, anl let the plac» be crowded un- til it is closed. In this way the national ‘apital will do a double serv! She will not only worthily testify anew to her well- known reputation for public spirit and lib- erality in all good works, but she will set a noble exampl> to the other cities of the country. —___ + ____ Edward C. Walthall. For some time it has been apparent that the health of Senator Walthall of Missis- sippi was on the decline. Indeed, when, in 1804, he resigned the remaining portion of the term he was then serving it was feared that he would be unable to return to un- dertake service again, though he had been elected by his state for another term. ‘These disquieting apprehensions have pained all who knew this genial, able southerner, and now that his sufferings have ended in his death there will be no sentiment on any side but that, of deep regret for the passing away of 4igoed man, an upright legislator, a gallant soldier and a true patriot. ward C. Walthall was rightfully one of the most belOVéd men in the Senate. His strict sense of justide ‘in all things, public and personal, endeared him to his colleagues, while his Jovable disposition, his kindti- ness and his cheerful, happy nature won the hearts of those with whom he came in contact.

There is good reasoning in the suggestion advanced by @ reader of The Star, whose letter was printed the other day, urging that the President now pardon the men who are serving terms of imprisonment for violating the neutrality laws in conducting filibustering expeditions. It went sorely against the American grain to see these men convicted and imprisoned, though they were unquestignably guilty of the offenses charged.

Of course, there has been no offense on the part of Spain, save the devastation of an entire colony, the starvation of two hundred thousand people, and the murderous destruction of an Amer- ican battle ship in time of peace. + 2 —____ This government and Spain are in about the same position with r2gard to their tor- pedo boats detained in English waters on account of damages.
