THE SURGEON GENERALsH1P.


Despite the fact that his own sun is
setting, BENJAMIN HARRISON still
holds the fOrtunes-of many men in the
hollow OF his hand. He will have at his
disposal between now and the 4th day
of next March several offices Of high hon.
or and distinction,and whose tenure can
not be affected by changes of a political
nature. These appointments are in the
army, the navy and the judiciary. 1t is
rumored that Justice FIELD will avail
himself of his privilege of retirement
before March 4 in order that President
HARRISON may name his successor on
the United States supreme bench;
and it is also reported that Surgeon
Gen. SUTHERLAND, of the army, will
be retired at his own request with
in few weeks, for the purpose of en-
abling Mr. HARRISON to name the next
chief of the army medical corps.
Regarding Gen. SUTHERLAND, the
rumor is probably correct. His retire
ment would be compulsory next
May, and by forestalling it a
few weeks he could, to some

HARRISON, at whose hands he received
his commission as surgeon general. For
the successorship to Gen. SUTHERLAND
several officers high in the service are
mentioned, but if the choice falls upon
the fittest it will fall upon Col.
b. j. d. IRWIN, now stationed at
Chicago as medical director of
the department of the Missouri.
Col. IRWIN is well remembered in
st. Paul, where he was formerly sta
toned. He is man of brilliant pro-
fessional attachments, combined Gas they
so rarely are) with great executiyei ca
pac1ty. During the war he served with
distinction as one of the youngest mem
bers of the medical corps, to reach the
important rank of surgeon and major.
He is man of affairs as we'll as a
recognized force in the world of science.
If merit governs the choice, Col. IRWIN
will be Surgeon General IRWIN on the

EOR THE WORKINGMIaN

An effective argument of the Democ-
racy's in the recent campaign consisted
in pointing out the inequalities of the
tariff. There is protection in plenty.
the party's orators said, for the output
of the cOuntry'S factories. tits shielded
from foreign competition by impostS
inpenetrable. But the laboring man en-
joys no protection. His wages are ever
exposed to the destructive underbid-
ding of all the paupars of Europe who
care TO migrate to our shores. This
and all of it is the truth. and the Amer
lean people because they believed it
voted for GROVER CLEVELAND.
The Democracy is now charged with
the duty of remedying this injustice.
One way-and the best Way-will be to
demolish the protection humbug. Goods
will then stand on their merits, as men
have SO long done, and the vendors of
commodities will receive no more favors
under the law than the vendors of brain
and muscle. But the Chinese wall
which surrounds our industries cannot
be broken down in a day. Too much
depends on its partial maintenance to
warrant violent and sudden attacks.
The Republican tariff, in some form or
other, will continue to exist in some de-
gree or other for years yet to come.
In the meanwhile temporary ex-
pedient for labor's benefit is necessary.
To this end our immigration laws must
be revised. The barriers against the
influx of cheap men must be raised as
the barriers against the influx of cheap
things are lowered. When the point is
reached where the two meet, the grad
ual reduction of both can then be begun.
When we finally have the ideal tariff,
which is a tariff for revenue only, we
can open our ports wide again to the
hosts of the poor and oppressed. But
until that day arrives let US shape leg
islatlon so that capital shall contribute
somewhat TO the enrichment of our
workingmen, as our workingmen have
contributed Tor a quarter of a century
to swell capitals profits.

LONDON. January s.-The explosion
at Dublin Castle has brought out many
theories TO account for the affair. The
Conservative organs, as rule, have
placed the responsibility upon the shout
ders OF the leaders Of the Physical
Force" party, and this has had the ef-
feet of drawing from Mr. Michael Dav-
lit letter which he sent TO the Times
for publication.
In this letter Mr.. Davitt protests that
it is cowardly for the Times TO insinuate
that the explosion might be traced 10
his friend Ford. Mr. Davitt says IL is
more probable as the Times friend Pig
gott is dead, that that paper has anoth-
er agent TO preach the gospel of dyna-
mite as Piggott did the gospel OF

RAILROAD RUMORS.
SOME IMPORTANT ALLEGATIONS FLYING
ABOUT TOWN.
The Baltimore and Ohio Said TO re Negotiating
With the Terminal Company Regarding
Through Trains Via the W. & L. T.,
and also for Pitsburg Business.

For couple or three days some I'M
portant and interesting railroad rumors
have been flying about the city.
They concern the Baltimore and Ohio
and the Terminal Railroad Companies,
and involve the Wheeling and Lake Erie
as well.
In substance, the allegations are, tirst,
that the Baltimore and Ohio has been
negotiating with the Terminal and
Wheeling and Lake Erie Companies, for
the purpose of obtaining concession
to run through passenger trains via.
Wheeling aud the Wheeling and Lake
Erie road, to Chicago, passing through
this city over the Terminal tracks
and the Union bridge. 1t Is
said that the trains would leave
the Wheeling and Lake Erie at or near
Spencer, Medina county, o., and pro-
coed thence via. Chicago Junction, and
it it is claimed that one OF the reasons
for the proposed change would be the
cutting off of twenty-five miles OF dis
lance between Baltimore and Chicago,
aud the saving of an hour In time. The
second rumor was TO the effect that the
Baltimore and Ohio was negotiating
with the Terminal Company for the
purpose OF running trains over the
Terminal system through this city, and
abandoning the present route for Pitts
burg business via. Sixteenth and Seven
teenth streets.
This rumor, it will be observed, has
been in circulation before.
A REGISTER reporter yesterday made
search for h. & o. Superintendent OF
Terminals j. f. Legg, but he was not
in the city, and has not been here for
several days. A search for General
Manager Eayres, of the Terminal Com
pany, resulted in the discovery that he
was in Cleveland. President Cochran,
Of the Terminal Company, was seen, and
disclaimed any knowledge Of the rumors
referred to. He said that there was az
present no connection, south OF the
creek, between the tracks OF his Com
pany and those of the Baltimore
and Ohio, and he could not
speak OF the probability Of any such
traffic arrangement as was outlined TO
him. He thought, however, that such
an arrangement as the use of the Ter
minal tracks for the Pittsburgh bust
ness of the B. S 0. would be a distinct
advantage for the latter Company, as 1t
would relieve it of the sharp curves and
heavy grades they now have to contend
with. There were no grades worth
mentioning on the Terminal lines
through the city, and the curves were
few and OF large radius.
These rumors are very interesting,
and may be the forerunner OF some
thing tangible and important.
