HARRlsoN's APPOINTMENTS.


Dissatisfaction of the Military Men with
His Unfit Selections.
President Harrison seems to have
very little respect for the army. of
which he will soon cease to be COM
mander-in-chief. He has not only
made it snug harbor for his late
private secretary, whom he has APP
pointed major and paymaster, and
jumped all the deserving veteran
captains in the service by appointing a
young lieutenant to similar position
These are minor things compared to
his action in sending to the senate for
confirmation the name of Dennis Z.
Kirby as captain in the army. As
will be seen by the protest, which we
publish in another column and which
was signed by every officer at Fort
Wayne as well as by some of the dis
tinuished men recently here on court
martial, Kirby was dismissed from
the army in 1868 for offenses which
ought to be an insuperable barrier to
his reappointment. and his dismissal
was approved by Gen. Grant. By some
means he succeeded in getting an act
passed in 1882 authorizing the presi-
condone the offenses of which his
brother officers found him guilty. and
for which he was very properly dis
missed. Although application has been
made to two presidents-Arthur and
Cleveland--to act under the statute,
both refused TO do SO; but President
Harrison in the closing days of his ad-
mlnistratr alton has shown his willing
ness to do it.
The senate ought to heed the protest
and refuse the confirmation. It is q
sufficient reason for doing so that the
man was shown wholly unfit to occupy
the honorable position of a captain in
the army: and if that were not enough,
the fact that he is now back number.
whom the army and the methods of the
service have wholly outgrown, would
be. The senate should not lose sight
of the fact. if the president does, that
official position in the army is not only
a badge of honor, but that in the filing
thereof the interests of the whole
country should be considered and not
outweighed by the desire of discred-
tied and disgraced man to be vindi-
Gated. 1t is no part of the senate's
duty to whitewash this man. but rather
to keep the army free from him, as
three presidents have tried to do. Such
a confirmation as is asked could only
be justified on the lowest of partisan
grounds; and the senate should take a
higher view of its duty.-Detroit FREQ
Press.

EFFECTS OF MKiNLEYIsM.

Dissstrous Consequences Of : Faulty Doc
trlne.
AS member OF congress Mr.. McKin-
ley, now governor of Ohio. took the
leading place in teaching the nation
what he considered the way to pros
perity. He believed that it consisted
in the governments increasing tarih
taxation and favoring the protection
Of particular industries 1t the common
cost. He was concerned less about
revenue for the United States as the
reason of tariff legislation than the adj
vancement of such private interests as
could induce his party to believe must
have an advantage of all others. and
that he might bring the artisans OF the
country to this view he was constantly
reiterating that all that was done in
this line was done not for the private
interests, but to advance American
labor.
Mr.. Mckinley was lauded as the
wisest possible teacher. one who was
thoroughly business man. proposing
business administration OF national
affairs. He was exalted as the very
wisest of economists, yet so little IS
Gov. Mckinley a business man that he
involved his own personal fortune In
indorsing for person who has become
a bankrupt. The man who claimed to
give to sixty million people the pana-
cea for business success was so little
sagacious that in the matter of his own
affairs he involved himself hopelessly.
Mr.. Mckinley and the whole repub-
lican party. in the face of positive evil
dence to the contrary, were constantly
asserting that the protective tariff
which they devised and applauded. and
for years have been successful in inn
posing upon the people of the United
States, was designed solely to help
American labor as against the pauper
labor of Europe. An occurrence at
South Chicago, as significant in its way
as McKin1ey's own improvidence in per-
sonal business affairs, shows the char
acter of the labor engaged in industries
particularly fostered in the name OF
American labor by tariff legislation of
the United States. At the South Chi
cago iron mill, which is surrounded by
employees, many of them incapable of
speaking English, Hungarians and
Poles having feud fought to the death.
The benficiaries of a protective tariff
designed, SO its opponents said, to help
American labor, not American capital,
have turned such labor from their mills
and have upon their pay rolls men as
little American and as entirely savage
as was shown in the encounter de-
scribed in the Chicago papers the other
day.-Chicago Times.

BOSTON & MAINE.
General Superintendent Sanborn Denies
That He Has Resigned.

1t has been reported in Boston that
General Superintendent D. W. Sanborn
of the Boston & Maine, has resigned, and
will take similar position on a trunk
line of the Canadian Pacific. Mr.. San
born gave prompt denial Monday night
TO reporter.
Matters in Boston & Maine circles are
in statu quo, it is said. The rumor is
current that President Mcleod and his
executive manager, Mr.. Niver, control
some $1,000 shares of stock, while ex-
President Frank Jones has within his
grasp something over 10000 shares. Mr..
Niver is installed, with his private secre-
tary, and Acting General Manager John
w. Sanborn continues also with his sec
rotary. The gossip regarding the situa-
ton is proving very interesting to the
railroad people, while subordinates are
anxiously contemplating as to which way
the cat may jump.

A PIONEER DEAD.
Washington Elliot, San Francisco's Earli-
est Singing Master.

Washington Elliot, man well known
in the pioneer musical circles of San
Francisco, has passed away. The de-
ceased was ~ years of age, and was a
native of Bath, Me. In the early days
of California, he went west and was one
of the earliest settlers in San Francisco.
In 1856 he started a singing school in the
basement of the old Calvary Presbyteri-
an church, which then stood on Bush
street, between Montgomery and San
some streets. subsequently he was APP
pointed teacher of music in the public
schools, which position he held many
years.
Some years ago he met with an acct
dent on railroad which resulted in par
alysis, and on Sunday he died atasthe res
idence of his son in Alameda from an
attack Of the grippe. He leeves wild
ow, also aged, and son and daughter.
For several years previous to 1850 Mr..
Elliot resided in Portland and taught
singing. He was member of the mus
ical societies and glee clubs of that day.
he had high tenor voice. He was well
known to our older singers of that time.
Last summer he came East and spent
several days in our city renewing old
friendships with his musical acquaintan-
ces years ago. I.

Dry Goods Display.

In looking through the large stock of
goods that Mr.. j. R. Libby, the progress
i've dry goods merchant on Congress
street, has been opening recently for the
spring business, we were impressed with
one fact, and that is that no one need to
go away from Portland to purchase dry
goods. The colored dress goods which
were shown US in such great profusion,
represent the best skill of the foreign
and home manufacturers. It is fine
display and we'll worth ones while to see
the beautiful colerings, the fine textures,
and the variety of the patterns. Some
of the most attractive goods were of Mr..
Libby's own special Importation. The
silk department interested us particular
ly. Here the productions of the looms
Of all countries are represented in very
great variety. The delicately shaded
silks that were shown us for evening
dresses, the fine imported figured silks
for street costumes, the plaid, striped
and figured silks for fancy waists, and
the very large assortment of fancy silks
and velvets for trimmings, made charm
ing picture.

came here on February IS and stopped at
the Park hotel. He took his meals at the
hotel regularly until March 8, when he
suddenly disappeared. leaving his sample

Two days after his absence was discovered
Manager Kelly, of the hotel, notified the
police and telegraphed to the Chicago
house. The police have been unable to
obtain q clue to the missing man. though
they have searched high and low. The
Chicago house wired back that Bevel was
. trusted empioye and would probably
turn up all right. So the matter was kept
quiet, but as he hiss now been gone nearly
two weeks the authorities thought best to
publish the news of his disappearance.
Bowel always had plenty of money and
% far as known was not abducted to
gambling, which disproves the suicide
theory at first advanced. He told some
body around the hotel that he was dis.

intimated that he would shortly 60 else
