THE OMAHA DAILY BI<E. FRIDAY, JULY 30. 1886, Our Mexican Relations, The peaceful relations that have sub sisted between the United S and | Mexico for many years are threatened | with @ serious disruption, The arrest and imprisonment of A. K. Cutting at Paso | del Norte, and the attitude of indifference if not actual defiance, maintained by the Mexican authorities of Chihauhau re garding the demands of the American | minister and consul for the of | Cutting, together with other show- | ing a systematic Ameri cans in Mexico, to have made im sion in adminis tration circles at Washington, Nothing has transpired of an official nature to | show that the government contemplates any other than the peaceful methods of diplomacy to hring about adjustment of the issue which the arrest of Cutting and the generally unjust treatment of American citizens in Mexico have created, Lut there scems to be no doubt that a feeling has been aroused that there must be no more paltering in this matter, und thatif the Mexican government is not able to compel the authorities over whom ithasjurisdiction to conform their conduct to established principles of international comity and justice, recourse must be had ton power beyond that government, There vast amount of cumulative evidence showing the injustice practiced to d American citizens in Mexico which constitutes a formidable indict- ment against that government. There have been numerous parallel cases to that of Mr. Cutting, and many others of a much more outrageous character, Only two days ago the dispatches reported that a naturalized American citizen, who had been extradited to answer to the charge of horse stealing, was sumr y shot to death on the following by the Mexican authorities, even while his ap- sal for protection was on its way to the American consul, Such an outrage of a universal principle of justice must bo ed regardless of the nationality wter of the alleged eriminal, Those who have taken the trouble to in- form themselves soucerning the treatnient zens at the hands of the judiciary, say that abuses injustice s constantly oecur- ring, and the indifference which our representatives in Mexico and the government at Washington have hith crto shown regarding these occurrences has not only encouraged the Mexi 1 thoritics 1n continuing the practic but has hegotten a contempt for this gov ernment and a prejudic vinst the can people. This result springs so lly from the persistent c S5 ness of the government with respeet to its own rights and dignity and the ri of its citlzens, that the statement of it is not in the least incredible, even were there not ample proof of it at hand. is, perhaps, not a great deal to cted of the placid diplomatist, at sad of the staté department, but there is a probability that the president may be induced to bring to bear upon this matter some of that firmness and de- cision of character which he 1s popularly believed to possess, by way at len stiffening the backbone and infu little zeal into his secretary of Congress, also, would do well to at le: direct such action as would give the country full and official information on the subject. As the situation is now presented, the duty of the government appears to be very plainand very simple. It should insist that. American citizens now imprisoned in Mexico be brought to immediate trial or released, and that accomplished it should demand such modilications and changes in the Mexi- can system of eriminal jurisprudence, as to American citizens, ke it conform to that which ns in other civilized nations. Such a demand would be not only entirely le- gitimate, but compliance with it 15 abso- lutely necessary to the preservation of international amity and the permanence of peaceful relations between the neigh- boring republics. o8 rolease facts persceution of are reported a decided an Mexic and Labor in Other Lands. If the Ameriean workingman who is so ¢ as to have steady employment r remuneration will inform himself of the condition of labor in most KEu- he will certainly find that he is ingman, cven if the facts fail to convince him that he ought to be contented with the rewards of hi: labor. Belgium, until a year or two past one of the most prosperous countries in Europe, with her mines and mills, fac- hops in active opera- tion, and giving employment to all her killed and unskilled labor, while her farmers found a ready market for all their products, is represented to be at this time & nation of idlers. Enjoymng peculiar advantages by reason of her great natural resources and her geo- araphical position, this iittle kingdom achieved the title of the “workshop of Europe,” and the products of her manu- factories werefound in every European market. Her people were industrions and thrifty, and in no country on the continent was there a population that en- joyed a more liberal share of the fruits of theso qualities. In this happy con- dition, with a liberal governmental sys- tem, Belgium offered an inviting field to the social and anarchical agitators. The labors of these elements had their result in the great strikes of the past year, the most bitter and destructive that any country has experienced in this gen- eration, and which plantad the s of permanent discontent and hostility be- tween employers and employed. The consequence is that & great amount of the trade formerly enjoyed by Belgium has gone to Germany, the most extensive industrinl establishments are but par- tially employed, & vast amount of ma- chinery representing immense in- vestments of capital is idle, capi- talists are afraid to rebuild the runined factories or relight the extinguished blast furna , the wages of lubor has falien below the cost of de- cent subsistence, and even the securities of the government have declined in price as & result of the reduced revenues from the geuneral depression. There could hardly be a more conviaci son than the experience of Belginm furnishes of the disastrous consequences of that sort of counsel and agitation which hap- pily the common sense of Aniorican work ingmoen will not tolerate or gountenancs and the end of the trouble in that conntry has not been reached. What is termed the workingmen's party have arranged for & grand demonstration on the 15th of August ostensibly in Lobialf of universal suffrage, but the wanifesto is accompa- with a threat that |l the demonstra- tion is interfered with or the government does not at once accede to the demand for an extension of tne suffrage there will be a general strike ordered, and this menace suggests the power behind it of a strong anarchist influence. It would seem inevitable that this new crisis must aggravate the difliculties that now encompass labor in Belgium, and greatly swell the ranks of impoverished workingmen in that country In England the conditions unfavorably affecting labor are not and threatening as those in Belgium, but the English work classes are far from prospe I'here hasbeen no improve ment since the gloomy statements made a few months ago by the commission and by Mr. Goschen others relative to the industrial de pression, nor does there appear mise of improvement. The Great Britam have fallen off during the cuarrent year, and factories in the groat tricts are at a standstill, and it is suid that even the government has found it morc ceonomical to buy eertain material for the army and navy in other coun- tries. The situation has, of course, been ered worse than it wonld otherwise have been by the intense politieal agita- tion and the doubt and anxiety that still attend political aflaivs. In France the great strike of the Decazeville miners, recently ended in fayor of the workmen, has produced a generally disturbed feel- ing i the labor market and a sense of curity among capitalists that augur unfavorably for the immediate fature of industrial enterprise in that country. 1In Germuny the situation of the working classes s less unsatisfactory, but even there the average of wages is consider anly than in the United States in corresvonding branches of industry, The outlook for millions of working- men in most of the countries of Burope for the coming winter is one of privation and suffering, and while unhappily there will in this country also be a host of laborers who will experience some hard- ship, on the whole the industrious and thrifty workingmen of America, who have not recklessly or foolishly iced their opportunitics, are very much better off now, and have vastly better prospects for the future, than their brethren in Europe, 80 serious Fous we royal and exports of materially Many witls industrial dis less A Safe Keynote. Henry Labouchere, the radical, thinks that obstruction should be the policy of the home rule liberals and nationalists in parliament, and that Lord Salisbury should be made very tived of trying to drive his badly matched team of whig and tory. But plain matter-of-fact and patriotic Michael Davitt sounds another and a safer keynote when he urges level- headed work at Westminster to hold up the hands of Parnell and Gladstone in their efforts to educate the masses for the rthrow. of the c es. Mr. Davitt nd English needs man can know them who velled throughout England address the working people in a bitterly fought cam He sa) The true policy for home-rulers is to advo- cate the reforms required by the workers of Great Britaln while advocating justice to Ire- land. The struggle for the highest form of Irish liberty can and ought to run paj the aspirations of the British democr areform of their social condition, for eco- nomical liberty, for labor in the field and the workshop. The issue knit by Gladstone is the classes against the masses in the effort to satisfy the national demand of the Irish peo- ple. Tt the Irish peopie obstruet the cause of the English masses they will be playing the game of the elasses and forfeit the ssmpathy of the million and a half of British voters who supported home rule this election. Justin McCarthy takes the same ground in his last eable letter, published in the B, “Every Irishman who loves his country,” writes the doughty home-ruler, “‘will do his best to keep order and peace. At such a crisis we will disappoint our encmies.” nas ng The Closing of the Session, As the last days of the present session of cong pproach the jobb nd lobbyists crowd the capital, Every pro- moter of a doubtful claim, every agent of private interests which will not bear the light of full discussion, every politician with an axe to grind or corporation whicn wants to prevent others from reaching the grindstone is on hand cager w influ- ence legislation before the hammer falls, The overcrowded pigeon-holes of the comuwittees will be ran- sacked for measures which run some chance of passage hurry, confusion and whirl of the last hours. The jostling of members to catch the speaker’s eye, the repeated attempts and as repeated failures to force bills througn against the watchful obstruction of objecting members, the clamor and noise and di ceful wrangling to which every session in its dying hours is sub- jected, will once more be re-enacted, The closing hours of the session are the opportumty for the treasury watch- dogs to earn their reputation, These are the men who can keep thewr senses keen through the monotonous roll- calls, the stereotyped objecti ons, the wrangling tor procedure and disorder with which the houses will be filled. A timely protest of a few words, a two minutes’ speech exposing the true inwardness of some innocent appearing bill, a reference to past attempts and past failures to foist a stale job upon the attention of the house are often eflective in killing this class of legislation. The watehdogs of the treasury are the ene- mies of the lobby, I appears to some that the authorities are pushing an unne arily seve course with respect to the ex newshoy, Brodie, whose successful leap from the Brooklyn bridge some days ago had given him wide notoriety. There scems to beadispo n to trump up any sort of o charge that the law will allow in order to visit some punishment on Brodie for his daring and reckless adventure. But we suspect the motive to th not a de- sive to deal harshly with Brodie, but merely to make an example of him which shall deter other fool-hardy fellows from a similar undertaking, and this is neces- sary.

Finally, the ma having been urged upon the attention of Scerctary Bayard by the friends of Santos, he took decisive measn 1 1 peremptory demand that Santos should be promptly brought to trial or released resulted in his being liberated m August of last year, the gov- ernment of Ecuador victually confessing that it had no case.
