AFRAID OF THE SOLDIERS.
Gen. Wiley Says There May be Troub1s
 Yet in the Coke Rt zion.


 PITTsBURG, April 14-Brigadier-G Gen eral Wiley is by no means confident that all trouble in the coke region is at an end. Bloodshed and violence he is quite sure will result if the troops are with drawn. Therefore he thinks the soldiers may expect a long siege in the mountains
 Gen. Wiley in an interview said; ''Everything is quiet at present in the coke region, but that indication is due wholly to the presence of the troops. The strikers are cowed by the uniforms and arms of the soldiers and will offer no vio- fence as long as they remain. The pres ence of the troops is essential to peace The Governor is anxious to maintain this order, and, as he is kept advised of the situation, am sure he will Tot endanger life and property by recalling the troops, for as soon as they are withdrawn there will be an outbreak.
 "There are several thousand men in the coke regions who are anxious to go to work, but who fear to do so. They are not afraid of personal violence while under protection of the guard, but fear that their homes would not be safe. Therefore, they remain idle, though hum ger and want cause great suffering among them.
 Besides these men who are anxious to work, there are thousands of others who would be compelled to work, despite everything, if they were not under the cs- pecial protection of the strikers. As long as they are fed and cared for they do not care about toiling. But how long can the strikers continue their work of sup porting these men is question. As soon as they fail, they will find the men drifting back to work in such numbers that the strike will seem to be broken at least. That is the time l dread It will occasion strife that will result in the loss of life and great destruction of property, think. l truly hope that the day is far off when such will occur, but to my mind it surely will come unless the labor trouble is amicably settled"

Peasant ProprietorshIp in Europe.

Inquiries instituted by the British foreign office regarding peasant proprie- torship in Europe give some interesting results. A period of forty years is covered. Everywhere there is an in- creasing desire to purchase land. This Is shown remarkably in France, where, although the actual cultivating popula- tion has diminished, the proprietors have grown in number to the displace- ment of tenants.

PRESIDENT HARRISON attempt to pla. cate the dis sruntled negroes is not a bril- liant success. He appointed a negro, H. G. Parker, of Missouri, to be alter nate commissioner at-large for the Col umbian exposition, but the negroes are worse than ever, because, at the same time, he appointed a white man, R. w. Furnas , of Nebraska, to be a commits sioner, at-large. They say that if MT Harrison wished to recognize the negro he should have appointed him commits sioner and the white man alternate, as the negroes had no representative on the commission. and the alternate is simply a fifth wheel, unless for some reason the commissioner for whom he is alternate becomes unable to serve.

A LOT of "slush" has been and iS being written about the necessity of amend ing our constitution so as to enable the federal government to extend, in the several states, greater protection to the subjects of foreign countries therein re siding. NShing of the kind is needed or should be for moment tolerated; the general government already has quite enough power, many think en- tirely too much, over the internal affairs of the states. There is no state in the union that does not give the foreign sub jects precisely the same protection ex- tended to native American citizens; more they have no right to ask. The constitution of the United States was not framed upon European models nor after European ideas. and we do not be- lieve that it will ever be changed be- cause of European clamor. not even if Italy should be joined by every nation in Europe.
