AN ASSURED FACT.
A Military Post Is Surely to Be Established in
This City.

There seems to be little doubt hut
what the war department has decided
to establish a permanent military post
at the arsenal property in this city.
AS the Journal stated in its issue of
last, Friday a detachment of the 18th
Infantry has been ordered to this city.
Just when they will put in an appear
ance is somewhat a matter Of con
lecture. The regiment is now being
organized at PlattSburg. y. Y.
1t Will he remembered that the new
law for the reorganization OF tn"
army which was passed at the last
session of Congress provided for re-
placing the volunteer regiments mus
tered out of the service. with new reg
in.ents of regulars. The 9th Infantry
is one of the regiments in process OF
orya MIA ton under the new law.
Not long ago Major Taylor sent the
uuartcrmastcr general Schohuie "f
the government property at the arsenal
belonging to that department. ana
. sked instructions as to what DISPOSE
ton he should make of it. The reply
came to hold it where it is for the use
of the new post.
The members of the Maine delega-
ton who worked very earnestly ana
unitedly to bring about this result
have every reason to feel grained at
the outcome of their labofs.
