KitterY Navy Yard.

The Board of Examiners authorized by
Congress to investigate the United States
Navy Yards, aud recommend such changes
in their organization as they deem most ad-
vantageous to the interest of the Navy, have
made their report to Secretary Chandler.
They recommend the closing of several {
the yards, and consolidation of the work of
the same kind, now being done at different
Yards, under one head at one yard. There
is no doubt that but under this arrangement,
with the right management, a large saving
could be effected.
Work can be done at the Kittery Yard as
cheaply as at any other in the country, es-
pecially repairs to wooden ships. We are
confident, and the record will warrant us in
making the statement, that wooden ships can
be built at the Kittery Yard as cheaply
as the same kind of vessel can be built at
any other navy yard in the country The
for this class of work, particularly that of
repairing either iron or wooden vessels. Ii
ha- u fine harbor with bold, deep water, and
ample room for the erection of any addition
al buildings. The yard is supplied with 3
good dry dock, fine ship-hOuses, and good
shops for all kinds Of mechanical work. II
is "a matter of congratulatiOn for the kittery
people, and in fact to the entire county and
State, that these numerous advantages have
caused the Secretary of the Navy to recon-
mend that the yard be kept open for the re-
pairs of wooden vessels.
The Board further recommended that the
boat building all be done at one yard. and
that yard the one offering the best facilities.
If this recommendation is carried out, and
there seems to be no good reason why il
should not be, the kittery yard ought to be
the one selected. If the facilities offered by
the different yards are taken into considera,
tion, instead of the political influence and
standing of those who are fighting to have
this work located elsewhere, it will certainly
20 TO Kittery. The boat building shop OF
this yard is supplied with steam power. and
all the numerous machines necessary for the
successful prosecution of the work, and Of q
kind superior to that of any other yard in
the country. Having the plant, ought it tc
be abandoned and needless expense insured
by locating elsewhere !? IL it in the interest
of economy to do this!
1t is reported that great pressure is beinl
brought TO bear upon Secretary Chandler tt
keep open some of the yards which the Boart
recommend to be closed, and we trust the
