The Importance of the Election as
Viewed BY the New York Press.
By The Associated Press.

New YORK, April 3.-The New York
Press says editorally today: The people
OF Rhode Island have il in their power TO
strengthen the cause of protection and
assist in killing the Wilson bill. They
have 1t in their power TO prove
before the world that their common
wealth Is one in sentiment and patriot
ism with the States that have spoken
against the Confederate tariff measure, as
IL was one with the States that spoke
with cannon shot and musket ball against
Confederate treason a third of century
ago. They have IL in their power TO show
that the Americanism which has been
Rhode Islands proudest boast has not
grown less, and that she is worthy, as she
has always been worthy of, the respect
and affection of her sister states. They
have il in their power TO rebuke the cal
umnies and falsehoods of Democratic pol
iticians by proving once more that North
ern wage earners are the supporters and
champions Of the protection which made
them independent and prosperous.
Rhode Island is small in area, but she
IL mighty in industry, mighty in intelii-
gence, mighty in her loyalty to American
interests and American principles. Her
voice will be heard at Washington; il
resound in the Senate. Let her people
show that now, as in the perils of the
past, they are true to themselves, true
to their State, and true TO the nation!
Protection filled Rhode Island with busy
factories and happy homes. The threat of
free trade has filled it with idleness and
want and misery; has put out the factory
fires, stopped the flow of wages, and in
stalled poverty, as an unwelcome guest,
in households which never knew his pre-
sence. Let. the voters of Rhode Island
defend their firesides and vindicate their
manhood tomorrow Let them reply to
the free trade sophistries of VOORHEES, and
the the unpatriotic policy of Grover
Cleveland by the only argument which
these wreckers of industry can apppre-
ciate-the crushing defeat of Democratic
candidates at the polls!

TROUBLE HAS BEGUN.
Strikers Resorting to Force
in the Coke Region.
en- THOUSAND MEN ARE OUT.
Men Driven From Work With Clubs
and Pistols-Thc Hungarians Bru-
tally Maltrcat Those Who Remained
at Work.
By The Associated Press.

UNIoNTowN, Pa, April S-The storm
has broken, and the scenes of 1891 are
being repeated throughout the coke
regions. The big coke strike is now on in
full force.
The ranks of the strikers have been re-
inforced, and the lowest estimates give
them 10000 men. From the outset the
strike has been turbulent, with n tendency
to open defiance of the law. There was
rioting in several quarters Sunday night.
1t has grown steadily worse, and yester-
day there were more serious outbreaks in
this end ofthe field.
The men of the Oliver works went out,
leaving 1900 tons of coke burning up in
the ovens. The company, to save the
property, attempted to put some men to
work drawing the coke, when the strikers
made a ferocious attack on them with
stones and clubs, driving them from the
grounds. In the melee several men were
badly hurt. The Oliver people have tele-
graphed the deputies. and the works will
be guarded hereafter. Their coke will be
drawn under protection of ne sheriff.
Attacked by Foreigners
The greatest outbreak was at the fa-
nous Hill Farm mines. near here. About
4UO foreigners from Morrell & Wheeler's,
of the Cambria Iron company, armed
themselves with guns, revolvers and
clubs and started out to drive the men
from the neighboring plants. They first
visited the Humphrey works, and finding
the men at work, drove them away under
the muzzles of pistols.
One workman chose to stand at his
post. He was given one minute to leave
by a Hungarian who covered him with
revolver. After driving the workmen
away, they continued their march to An
chor, where the worknen offered no OPP
position and Immediately left the works.
The next engagement was at Hill farm.
The men were quietly at work when the
mob ofinfuriated strikers pounced down
upon them, ordering them TO leave at
once. Some alterations followed, when
the rioters enforced their demands by an
attack, in which half dozen workmen
were seriously injured.

The interest manifested by tho public
in the Supply Kitchen leads those who

but that substantial addition will be
made to the standing fund.
The ready response by the different

TO the committee, and in view of the
large demands made upon every chari-
tably disposed person in Providence

prising.

LONDON, April 3.--An exciting and
dangerous fire broke out early this morn
ing in No. Warehouse at the London
Docks.
Half the fire engines in London were
called to the spot and the fire was finally
checked. No. 9 is the centre OF number
OF lofty warehouses. quays and docks and
many valuable ships were close TO the
spot where the fire broke out.
The warehouse attacked by the flames
was stored with wool, spices and coffee
and was completely gutted. The origin
of the fire is mysterious, and it is
asserted that it was due to the
explosion of an Internal machine. The
same suspicion prevailed as 90 the cause
OF the great dock confagratlon OF No
VEN Der, 1892.

A correspondent of the Adrsr-

general understanding that the

dent Of this Hawaiian Common
wealth for a reasonably long
term. To which the inspired
morning organ of the p. g. re-
plies, that the Convention NAV
not do any such impious thing as

and venerable image of an oil
garehy set up by Minister
Stevens With great condescen-
sion. however. the morning
oracle signifies. that the Conven-
ton may incorporate, if they see
fit, provision in the constitution
confirming the present incumbent
in office. but they have no author
ity to elect anybody, nor indeed
to do anything except make a
constitution. The Advertiser
might have added, that a consti-
tuition carefully providing for the
health, and comfort of all the
provisional family now drawing
sustenanee from the government
bin, will be submitted to the
Convention, and as the President
and vice President and the pro-
posed six Ministers, and the
nominee members of the Upper
House will be entitled to vote
themselves into power. why the

man can do is not to be critical

That Chinese Petition.

The p G. press are naturally
exercised over the demand of the
Chinese for the franchise, and, the
government organs are casting
about for sophistry to assist them
in lodging the main issue. The
party of provisional methods have
run themselves into a cuJ-de-sac,
and the willy oriental of the two
predominant races-who are here
in business riyalry-are eager to
take advantage of the situation,
and one result Is, that in this
matter of asking for vote, the
provisional government is placed
between the devil and the deep
sea, about midway between the
numerically and physically pow
erful Asiatic, and the brave
men, by the might of whose guns
the provisional government pro-
Tess to exist.
The statement in last evenings
Star that the Chinese have
placed themselves in an absurd
position by asking the highest
possible favor. of the government
and at the same time
questioning the sovereign power
of the government to which they
appeal is misleading. The
Chinese simply ask the govern
ment to place their claim, as we
read it, TO the voting franchise.
before the body which claims
the right to determine the
question and as the Chinese are
just as able to see hole through
a p. g. ladder as their critics,
they very properly addressed
themselves to the existing gov
eminent, knowing that it is the
hand of the provisional Esau
which proposes thump the Con-
stitution into shape, and the
bogus convention into submits
