If.NiNGTONIANs we're surprised and shocked
wv Yesterday by the announcement that Major r.
r. Raymond the United States engineer in charge of
harbor work In this district is TO be transferred in
few weeks and that he TO be succeeded by Captain
f. ~ Johnston The fact that rule engineering
officers stationed Major Raymond is usually are
permitted to remain four years and his iour-year term
has not nearly expired his transfer all the more
surprising
Major Raymond has done good work since he has
been in THIS district He has won the confidence Of
the people in Delaware and New Jersey official
In this city where he has resided in other places
where he has frequently, he has made host Of
warm personal friends II perhaps is safe to say that
everyone who knows him regrets the fact that the
order his transfershas been issued and that they
are to lose only valued Federal official but also
good friend and neighbor
Little is known here of Captain Johnston Il Is as
sumed that he is competent man. else he would not
be sent such important district Let all hope
that he will be good an engineer the are
arc about to lose and that. like Major Raymond he
will identify himself so intimately with the general
affairs of the city in which he lives that those about
him viii lose sight of the fact that he merely is sent
here temporarily and look upon him Of them
selves. Il may be said in Major Raymonds behalf
that he created for his successor an exceedingly
friendly atmosphere and that II he possesses the
majors remarkable facility for making friends by be-
ing friendly, he will not regret having been sent
here.
In conclusion We wish to say that we hope good
fortune viii attend Major Raymond wherever he mas
20 in the important official work in which he Is on
gagged. The people here will miss him as a man who
always has had their best interests heart and VIII,

these days of ripened and entcing fruit we read
