THE VESUVIUS' GUNS
The Test of Them is only Par
TALLY Satisfactory.
A CRUDE LOADING APPARATUS
The Charleston Reports from Callao, but She
Has Seen No Itata-MexicO and the
Esmeralda.

WASHINGTON, May 81 The report of
the naval board on the test of the Vesuvius'
guns is made public. When the board met
May IA it found the guns had not been
ranged and no appliances for sighting fit
ted. Temporary sights were rugged. The
accuracy of fire of the starboard gun
under the conditions was considered good.
The valves of the middle and port gus
were not IN satisfactory working order.
The effect Of moderate sea and wind on
the general efficiency of the guns and their
range was very slight. Generally speaking
the vessel as a gun platform behaved
very satisfactorily. Many details concern
ing the steering gear and the towers could
be much improved. AS to the natural eff
cheney of the vessel for offensive purposes,
the board has little data on which to base
an opinion. On May 20 three shots were
fired at target towed by the Gushing at a
speed Of ten knots across the line of the
fire, the Vesuvius steaming seventeen
knots One of these would undoubt-
edly have struck vessel. This
is considered favorable show
ing under the circumstances. The board
considered the fittings and appliances
for loading and firing the guns very crude
and capable of great improvement. The
board recommends the guns should be care
fully ranged; also various notifications of
defects found, and the department has
directed the board recouvene and submit a
detailed programme for further tests

CITY OF MEXICO, May 27.-El Pdrtido, q

the kilograms which passed between the
mayor of Acapulco, the governor Of the
state of Guerrero and President Diaz in
reference to the Esmeralda's efforts to OBJ

the government were to resist any attempt
on the part of the Esmeralda to take coal
by force and instructing the people 10 aid
the government forces in repelling an at

curity of the town.
The AngLoAmericdn, however, says the
government allowed the Esmeralda to coal.

The Salem Journal is in favor of abol-
of the state penitentiary and contends
that the convicts might, with great
profit to the state and without conflict
ing with free labor, be employed in con-
structing durable Wagon roads in those
places in behalf of which bills were
passed at the last legislature which the
law has since declared unconstitutional.
The Journals idea seems to be that the
state might hire out the convicts to the
several counties that might desire their
services, at low price, say 25 cents a
day and in this way needed public i'm
provements might be made in districts
that are too poor to have the work done
at the regular wages OF free labor. The
suggestion of the Journal is good every
way except in the matter of practicable
ity. Roads are badly needed in MANY
places, especially in Eastern Oregon,
where it is not possible for the scattered
population nor the counties to build
them, but how wonld it be possible to
herd band of convicts night and day
away from prison walls and bolts and
bars, SO that they would not escape?
And supposing this difficulty could be
overcome could the state compel a con-
vict who had been sentenced to confne-
ment within the walls of the state peni-
tentiary to come up to Wasco county
and spend three months buildings a grade
up 1ygh hill? 1t is possible that some
OF them would be glad to get out into
the air and sunshine, but would it be
possible to so employ them without some
smart Alec of lawyer raising legal or
constitutional difficulty? We ask these
questions in nocaptions spirit and should
only be too glad of the success of any
scheme that would enable us to improve
the condition of our public roads.

On the eleventh of December the
CnRoN1cLE will be one year old and the
the last number of the first volume of
the weekly edition will be issued on that
day. The first number of volume two
will be issued on the 18th of December
: and will be in the form of six column
quarto. This will give our weekly
edition about one fourth more reading
matter or what will be equal to nine
columns of the daily or five columns of
the weekly. In this form it will contain
vastly more reading matter than any
paper published in these parts while the
price will remain unchanged. The
CHRONICLE proposes to keep ahead of the
times and not simply abreast. We hope
these efforts to make the paper still
more valuable to its many readers will
lie duly appreciated, and result in a
largely increased subscription list.
Though not year old the CHRONICLE
has larger list of readers in Wasco and
Sherman counties than any other paper
published in these counties, and its list
is constantly increasing. The CHRoNI-
Gle is no longer an experiment in jour
nalism. Its success is assured. 1t has
come to stay and it will labor to make
itself worthy of support.

A third party crank named Galnani,
who lives somewhere in Washington
county, Oregon, gets off the following in
the Northwest Reform Journal on the
lava law by the way that exists
everywhere and is absolutely just and
right-that compels man to pay his
honest debts: tOh, cruel and lawless
law! The man whose brain conceived
such an infamy ought to be consigned
for everlasting into the depths of hell
and damnation.'' This is reform with a
vengance-get into debt all you can and
then damn the laws that compel you to
pay it. 1t is. just such idiots as this
gentleman with the Dago cognomen
that have made the so-called reform
movement a byword, and themselves a
laughing stock.
