We see by the papers OF Providence. R. l..
that the new politico-religious thing. the
A. P. A. is influential there. 1t controlled the
Mayoralty caucuses last week. and socks to
control the City Council caucuses this week.
1t seems to be Q power In every ward OF the
city, and its anti-Catholicism is unconcealed
in Providence. The A. p. A. serves the Repub-
lcan party chiefly. but 1t opposes Republican
as we'll as Democratic candidates who fail to
give satisfactory answers to certain questions.
In the recent elections In Iowa the A. p. A. had
obtained the desired answers from all the
candidates OF all parties The questions there
related to the support OF the public schools.
tho appropriation OF public money TO the use
OF institutions In which religion Is taught. and
the other planks In the platform OF the Amerl-
can Protective Association.
In the Western and central States the A. P. A.
has become a political factor. 1t is coming
eastward The municipal elections soon to be
hold in Providence will show how strong it is
there.

ing officers for Kings county to proceed
forthwith to collect the evidence and prose-
cute the guilty.
An examination OF the Executive law re-
lating to the powers OF the Attorney"Gen-
eral indicates that he possesses no author
ity to appoint special prosecuting officers
by that name but Mr.. GAyNoR's idea could
probably be carried out by the appoint
ment Of special deputy Attorney General.
There are two regular deputies. desig-
mated first and second. and the law author
ICES the Attorney General to appoint such
other deputies as he may deem necessary.
aud to fix their compensation. The statute
also provides that the Attorney-General.
whenever required by the Governor or n
Justice Of the Supreme Court, must attend
Court OF Oyer and Terminer for the pur-
pose OF managing and conducting criminal
action or proceeding therein. This duty
could doubtless be lawfully performed by a
deputy acting in place Of the Attorney
General himself. and in this way Mr.. GAY
NoR's request could be complied with.
The other request is that the Attorney
General be asked for an opinion as to the
Governors power to remove the officials,
including two Justices OF the Peace. who
participated In. connived at, or encouraged
the crimes at Gravesend.
So far as the Justices Of the Peace are
concerned 1t seems to be quite clear that
the Governor has no power to remove
them. Section IS OF Article vi. OF the Con-
stitution provides that Justices OF the
Peace may be removed. after due notice
and an opportunity of being heard. by such
courts rs may be prescribed by law. for
causes to be assigned In the order OF re-
moval This constitutional provision would
seem to exclude any other method OF re-
moving these officers and. furthermore.
section 1872 OF the Code OF Criminal Pro-
cedure provides that Justices OF the Peace
are removable by the Supreme Court at
General Term.

Mr.. Teller on the Tariff.

The Hon. HENRY M. TELLER. one Of the
| Senators In Congress from Colorado. arrived
| In Denver from Washington last week. and
| the tolls OF the session and the turning to
the wall OF the silver side seem to have had
an Irritating effect upon his nerves. In his
| more cheerful mood he never would have
| committed these saturnine reflections to the
| glare OF print:
| "of course nothing would change cLuvrLA.p. n he
know anything about tho tarid he would prepare bill
take It to the House. and tell them pass It, He 10
boss and has no idea OF limitations to it. But the
trouble Is he doesn't know anything about the tsrin.
and that 10 where the committee has him"
Probably Mr.. CLEVELAND doesn't know
the tariff question as Mr.. MCKINLEY and Mr..
WILSON know 1t. or ne Mr.. TELLER knows
the silver question. He doesn't know the
schedules from alkales to zinc. and there is
no reason why he should. But he knows
that taxation for the benefit OF the few. Of
special interests and special class. Is un-
constitutional, and he has 30 declared. Sem
ator TELLER unwittingly pays a compli-
ment In saying that nothing would
change CLEVELAND" The constitutional
and Democratic theory OF taxation promul-
gated by the Chicago Convention and ac-
cepted by Mr.. CLEVELAND is not changed
or affected In the smallest degree by last
Tuesdays elections. and 1t would be to hold
mean notion Of Mr.. CLEvELAND's consti-
tutional law, Democratic principle. and
constancy OF temperament. to suppose that
he could be scared out OF his convictions or
his engagements by sudden squall Of
public opinion.
Whatever Mr.. CLEVELAND may know or
not know about the tariff. he knows the
Democratic platform, and he knows his let
ter OF acceptance and his inaugural mes
sage. Mr.. TELLER and the rest Of the Re-
publicans would like to have him forget the
Democratic platform. eat his words. and
shuttle into protectionism. 1t is not to be
supposed. however, that the Committee on
Ways and Means will bring in any mongrel
protectionist bill. or that II such bill
should be passed by weak yielding to the
Republicans Of the Senate. it could receive
the signature Of President committed to
o constitutional tariff.

Four points in Surgeon-G General TRYoN's
comments on the medical corps of the navy
are particularly worthy OF public attention.
The hrst is his proposal to change the titles
OF the officers Of the corps. The chief OF the
bureau he would call Medical Director Gen
eral. thus leaving Surgeon General exclusive
ly an army title; the Medical Inspector would
hereafter have the name OF Fleet Surgeon |:
the Passed Assistant Surgeon-an awkward
designation n-would be Surgeon. while the
present Surgeons would become STAFF SUI
geons finally the title OF Assistant Surgeon
he would make Surgeon Junior Grade Just as
In the line there arc Lieutenants and Lieuten-
ants Junior Grade. There is much in a name
to those who officially wear it. and II the Sur
geon-General In these proposals expresses
the general desire OF his CORPS. Congress may
well take them into consideration.
second point noted is that Passed As
sistant Surgeons. after remaining In tlat
grade Tor niteen years. are promoted W tn )ut
either physical or professional examination to
the grade OF Surgeon. where they remain
about as long before being examined to be
made Medical Inspectors. This makes a con.
secutive service OF perhaps twenty-five or
thirty years without having their qualinca-
tions tested by examination since promotion
from their status as Assistant Surgeons. The
remedy ID TO commission Passed Assistant
Surgeons on reaching that grade. and then to
promote them to tho grade above only after q
regular physical and professional examine
ton. Legislation for that purpose could cas-
lily be supplied by Congress-.
third point suggested by the Surgeon
General Is that since medical officers must
lose professionally during each cruise OF
three years at sea, a partial Offset could be had
by sending some Of them as attaches to the le-
cations OF London. Paris. and Berlin. the
chief medical centres Of Europe. Besides get
ting opportunities for study there. they might
make valuable reports upon all matters con-
nectsd with public health. and so be of much
service while absent from routine duties.

Is IT RIGHT?

Elsewhere we insert clipping
from the New Orleans States. giving
some thoughts of one ofthe ''oidest
and best of the big river men on
the levee question. Captain 1. r.
feathers is we'll and favcrably
known to the people OF this great
valley, and indeed to nearly the
whole people of the United States,
as a clear headed man of business,
who has the courage of his convict
ions, expresses his views freely,
which are founded upon years of
experience, and which in the main
will be found as near correct as
human views Of things ordinary and
extraordinary get to be.
We have a profound respect for
the grand and glorious old time
Commodore OF the ssBig Injin heap"
and always in common with the mass
Of the people, take great interest IN
his utterances. Just now wheP the
coming food is rushing down upon
the valley our readers will naturally
peruse with care the result of his
many years of river experience and
respect his views founded thereon.
As far as we are concerned, We
are free to say that the true problem
of protection from overflow remains
unsolved; that the water can be kept
off the land by earth entertainments
near the river front cannot be
doubted, and kept off for perhaps
| many years, but when we see The
constantly increasing height Of ,hs
levees year after year, we are forced
to the conclusion that the true
method for permanent protection
has not yet been adopted.

ard is there no possible way to make
a combustion with levees and out
lets so as to prevent this continued
raising and thereby increasing the
danger of those who live behind the

this question is well worthy the atten-
ton of the most powerful and larg-

The people are getting alarmed
