FUROpE AND THE PHILIPPINES.

The attitude Of European nations toward our
acoujsitlon Of the Philippine Islands Is entirely
natural On some hands there is an Instructive
tendency toward disputing our right to them
and toward demanding for European Powers
voice in the disposition of them. The fowers'
or some Of them. have long been accustomed 10
regard the settlement Of every international dis
pute. certainly Of every war, as matter TOT CON
s,deration nv n congress or a concert. 1t Is a
novel experience to see a war wnged by ma
t,on that Is not IN their concert and that does
not recognize its authority. But serious states
men will speedily recognize the fact ana acqu'
esce In Its requirements. The time went by a
century and more ago when any alhahce' hoi'
or otherwise. could hope to bend oil nations to
It's will or could hope TO impose European oe-
sires upon America as law III some OF tne

cannot expect the habits Of century 70 DE

AT heart, there can be little doubt, Europe VIII
be glad to have the United States assume con-
troll of those islands. All the commercial POWERS
are tired of Spanish rule, which has meant pau
government, Insecurity, lack OF opportunities
and general dissatisfaction. They would ureao
to see the islands become at once and entirely
independent. because they have well-founded
doubts OF the fitness OF the islanders for unre
strained sol f government and well-founded fears
that such an attempt would mean disturbance
of commercial interests and perhaps collapse
into chaos which would require embarrassing
intervention. They would not like to see japan
take the islands, because they are Jealous ana
apprehensive Of her rapidly growing power
They would not, for similar reason, agree 10
the ACQUISITION of them by one OF their own
number. That would disturb the precious pal

LORD WOLEELEY FOR CANADA.

Not for many day has there been a more in.
tercsting announcement Of the kind than that
made by our London correspondent in his spe-
cial cable dispatch In yesterdays Tribune, to
the effect that the British Government IL nego-
tiating with Lord Wolseley with view to his
appointment to the Viceroyalty Of Canada 1t
has for some time been an open secret that the
Government was anxious to fill the place with a
man Of more than ordinary distinction, and that
1t was having hard time In finding the right
one. In selecting Lord Wolseley. the present
Commander-in-Chie OF the army, It has made
an ideal selection. Whether he will accept the
place is yet an open question, but hope and ex-
pectation may well be that he will. As Mr..
Ford said, no better appointment could be made.
And that the best appointment should be made
IL especially desirable Mt this time.
United States interest in the appointment IL
naturally deep. II is, in one sense, a matter
with which we have nothing to do The Vice.
roy u.s. theoretically. supposed to be entirely
apart from politics. and therefore to have moth
ing to do with the relations between the Domin.
ion and this Republic. He is the personal repre-
sentative Of the Queen. Yet everybody knows
