RUNNING ITSELF.

The Philadelphia Times is Of opinion that
Mr.. CLEVELAND himself is the biggest frog
in the political puddle, and that all this talk
about somebody running the administration
Is bosh. The Times saws:
President CLEVELAND has taken new depar-
ture tn the most notable manner about not being
run by any person, clique or section. lie has
emphasized his purpose not to be run BY RAN
DALI, CARLIsLE, WALLAcE, WArrERsoN, PATTI
son, kELLY or any other man or set OF men. lie
does not obstnately refuse to hear or consult or
learn. ON the contrary, he seeks the best infor-
nation from ali sources, but neither RANDALL.
WALLACE, PArrIsoN, CASSIDY, SooTr or any or
all OF them, coald run the administration in any
thing like the sense in which that expression is
understood.
There have been two important appointments
made from PcapSylyania-Consul General A.
HALLER GRoSs 10 Greece and Assistant Post
master General AALcox Hay. and they were
both nsde without any special pressure from
ANY q the politicians named or from any others.
The administration was not run BY anybody in
making these appointments, and as new APP
poiatnents are multiplied the regulation organs
and the regulation politicians will more clearly
learn that the CLKvxtANo administration simply
runs itself. and that is Just about the way the
nass OF the people vaat 1t to DC run.

THE most difficult task the British govern
ment has undertaken for some time is build
ing railroad across the Nubian desert from
Suakim on the Red sea TO Berber on the
Nile, distance of 239 miles. The purpose
is to construct il this summer, and by iunc-
ton OF forces prosecute a fall and winter
campaign against Ell MAHDI and Khartoum
avenge GoRDoN's death and restore British
or Egyptian supremacy on the upper Nile
The route agreed upon by the engineers
starts westward from Suakim, crossing plain
for twenty-seven miles, where it strikes the
first ridge, and gradual ascent is made for
forty-two miles, to the formidable pass of
Haratri $50 feet above sea level. From
this pass the ground descends until it reaches
the oasis OF Ariab, 1913 miles from Suakim.
Beyond Ariab comes one of the real difficult
ties OF the whole route. For ffty-three miles
is perfectly waterless waste, supplemented
by live-milc stretch of those deep, soft.
shifting sands which every Egyptian engineer
knows to his cost. Having passed this point
the remainder Of the route is perfectly easy,
being level plateau with uniform elevation
of l, $50 feet to the town Of Berber on the
Nile. When We remember that this road Is
to be constructed in the hot and sickly sea-
son, in the face of desperate foe. and by
men uuaccimated to the heat of an African
summer in the burning sands Of the desert,
the probabilities are that if the enterprise
succeeds at all 1t will be at the cost of mill
ions OF treasure and thousands of lives.

Tho Of.iciaI AnsWer.

New YORK, April 2.-The following is the
official answer to the criticisms that have APP
peared in regard to the lease of the Central
Pacific to the Southern Pacific company: The
new lease Of the Central Pacific road does
not interfere with its relation to the
United States government or jeepardize
the forced payment into the sinking
fund. For several years the govern ent
transportation accounts have exceeded its re-
quirements under the Thurman act and no
further calls had to be made upon the com
pany. The road will continue to do the same
transportation as heretofore. The lessee
assumes the payment of all interests, taxes,
sinking funds and fixed charges, including
the annual government obligations imposed,
and the minimum Of 81, 200, 900 increased
to S3,600,0O IL earned, is to lie paid IS
rental, over and above the other dsburse-
ments. The government thus has the Sc
curity Of the Southern Pacific company as
well as the Central Pacific.
The Southern Pacific company does not
own and lease any railroads east of the
Mississippi river. The main line extends
from New Orleans to San Francisco with the
Central Pacific and some other short lines in
California

IN an interview with the GLOBE correspond
ent at Winnipeg on yesterday, Premier
NoRQUAY made good point when he said
the half-breeds had made serious mistake
in invoking the aid of the Indians. The
Indians are now subssting off the country,
and arraylng the settlers against the rebels
and other allies; and besides, so long as their
appetites are appeased they will remain in
active so far as aggressive hostilities are con-
cerned. The premier is quite correct about
the only stimulus the noble red man has to
incite his hostility is his rapacious appetite
Having gorged himself he has no inclination
to fight. But the settlers whose loyalty to the
government is lukewarm will fight for their
families and for their property. As they see
their families menaced and are despoiled of
their property they will become incensed
against the half-breeds and their cause for
having invoked the aid of the Indians and
self-interest will force them to take the field
on the side of the government. And they
will be the most effective factor in solving
the serious problem that now confronts the
constituted authorities of the Northwest terri
tories.

Plan for Association.

Special to the Globe.
CHICAGO, April 2.-As those members of
the committee appointed to formulate plan
for the maintenance of the rates on the
roads north Of the Ohio river and between
Buffalo and the Missouri did not turn up,
the time for their work was extended to April
10. In the discussion of the railroad situa-
ton of the roads north and west from Chi
cago, Willingness was expressed to unite
into gross tonnage pool taking in
that diverted by the non-pool roads.
At the afternoon session j. II. Devereaux of
the Bee Line offered resolution stating that
the roads of Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Penn
sylvania aud New York were under certain
responsibility to the public, and that a
committee Of seven be appointed to care
fully consider the laws governing
the operating of the roads to give a report
July at a convention to be held at Phla-
delphia, at which the railroad commissioners
Of the several states and the transportation
committee of congress will be invited to at
tend, and also representatives of the COM
mercial interests Of New York, Philadelphia
Baltimore, Chicago, st. Louis, Cincinnati
and other Western cities.
A committee was appointed to draft plan
for advancing rates from interior points in
the Middle states 10 the seaboard. com
mittee was appointed to consider the demon
alzation Of rates springng from competing
lines outside of the pool, and connections
with outside junction points and transmits
sissppi business. 1t was agreed not to take
any business below tariff before another
meeting April 10.

In the appointment of railroad commits
siopers Gov. HUBBARD has shown a proper
understanding and appreciation of the spirit
and purpose of the law passed by the last
Legislature providing for the regulation of
railroad companies and warehousing and
handling grain. While the law was passed
in the interest of the producers to protect
them against extOrtion, there was also a
necessity for protecting the railroads and
elevator companies from the aggressive spirit
manifested by the grangers. In his appoint
ment of commissioners under the law the
governor has displayed wisdom in selecting
gentlemen who have an intelligent under
standing of the equities pertaining to both
sides. AS the governor expresses it in his ill.,
terview with the GLOBE this morning the
com mission is now so constituted as ''to as
sure to the producing interests the ampest
consideration in the discharge of its duties,
and at the same time give promise of abso-
lutte justice TO all other interests affected by
the law.''
The appointment of Mr.. MURDOCH ought
certainly to be satisfactory to the agricultursts
of the state, especially as he and Gen. BAKER
will constitute the majority of the board. At
the same time while Hon. GEORGE L. BECKER
has been connected with the railroads, he now
has no interest in that direction, but is identi-
fed with the farming interests. Mr.. BECKER's
technical! knowledge of the construction and
operation of railroads will make him val
liable member of the board. Taking it alto
gether it is doubtful whether the governor
could have made more judicious selection
than the gentleman whom he has named, or
one in whose hands the public interest would
be more secure.

THg monthly debt statement issued the
first OF the present month contains some
new features. The old debt statement is re-
modelled and a new form adopted simplifying
the presentation Of the assets aud liabilities.
Among the changes that are made are the
following: The $50, 600, coo Of fractional
silver are deducted from the available cash.
The gold aud silver certificates held by the
treasury are removed from the available as
sets and al the same time deducted from tie
outstanding silver and gold certificates set
down among the Liabilities The most i'm
portsnt change, however, is the adding Of
the Indebtedness Of tue Pacific railroads to
