AN EXHAUSTIVE TEST.

The coast defense mon itor Monterey has
had run at sea and has returned to Mare
Island heartily Endorsed by the inspecting
board. She has proved good sea vessel
in a heavy sea, being steady and buoyant,
and although the hull is foul with five
m onths of weed gathering, the speed is re-
markably creditable, the maximum being
1913 knots per hour, driving against lumpy
water. Captain Eowison, president of
the board of naval inspectors, speaks
highly in praise of the vessel. He de-
scribes her as admirable in behavior,
even in heavy weather, and the boilers
were thoroughly tested and came salts
factOrily out of tie ordeal in every re-
spect. The representative of THE CALL on
board states that had speed been con-
tinued it is very likely thirteen knots
would have been developed and exceeded
An average of 1874 knots is, however, an
excellent achievement. We shall hear no
more about the boilers in the way of de-
traction. They stood all the steam fred
up to mean pressure of 1902 pounds,
without a leak in one of them. and could
doubtless have borne greater pressure
had the poor quality of coal in the bunkers
been capable of generating it. Nothing
broke down in the engine-rOom. The en-
gines did their work as smoothly and with
out overheating, as if they had been in US g
several years.
Captain Howison is also satisfied with
the test of the big guns The ship was
not strained in any part by the discharges.
One of he guns became jammed when
loading for shot with a charge of 400
pounds of powder. A shell about half a
ton in weight stuck while being rammed.
and was extricated with some trouble and
returned to the magazine. This is an
occurrence expected occasionally in a
Pinch gun, where all the loading has to
be done with machinery. One of the men
was injured, unfortunately. and this also
may be taken as an incident not wholly to

NEWS FROM ABROAD.

From recent nun Der Of the Salt Lake
Tribune we extract the following:
In other portions of this country the cities
have an air of prosperity, while the country
the rural districts, are laboring under marked
distress. The chief city OF The Golden State is
dull beyond comparison, While the State at
large is exceedingly prosperous. The vine-
yards and orchards are by themselves supply
ing enough revenue for a great State. The
wheat lands of California are almost sufficient
to fed an empire.
The Tribune has accepted somewhat too
readily the reports OF the disappointed
one tenth OF the people of San Francisco.
In all communities there are people who
lag behind. Finding nothing to do them
selves, they assume that the bulk of the
people are IN the same fix. This type may
be illustrated in the case of young man
who had been several months out of en-
ployment. He admitted having declined
ten and twelve dollar a week places on the
ground that he could not live on that
amount. Having little means, he pre-
ferred TO wait for something better He
would take twenty dollars If the work
suited him, but he would emigrate before
he would work for ten. 1t will be ad-
mitted. however, that comparatively times
are dull. There is little speculation, and no
considerable rise in the value of real
property. The jobbing trade has been
reduced by causes The CALL has often
explained. Capital and labor are not
on sufficiently good terms to warrant
the large investment in manufacturing
plants which the needs of the State would
warrant. There is money in the CONVEX
sion of our raw material into finished
goods. but we are not yet doing so much
of that kind of work as we should Still
the city is only dull in comparison with
former periods of prosperity. The evil
dences OF reasonable amount of activity
are visible on every hand. Theaters are
something which people can live reason
ably without and yet our principal
theaters and some of the minor ones have
been making handsome money. Present
indications are that more money in pro-
portion 10 population will be taken out of
the city for the Worlds Fair than will go
from any other city. When anything is
offered that our people want they have
money enough to buy it. On the whole,
San Francisco carries all the outward
signs of being fairly prosperous. Probably
we have not felt the spur of necessity to
the degree that has melted effort else
where. A little of the "maSana" ten
dency of the original occupants of this
country has shown itself as reflex of the
abnormal energy of our earlier years. But
no mistake should be made about the
future of this city. If the rural districts
have been growing rich faster than the
metropolis so much the better. There was
time when the growth was the other

THE HAWAIIAN SITUATION.

The encouraging feature of the present
condition of affairs at the islands is the
firm hold the Provisional Government has
upon the people. Americans are some
what mortified to find the American Gov
eminent aTrayed against the annexation
party In the islands, but there is certain
satisfaction in knowing that the Pro-
vsional Government is able to resist this
hostile force. Minister Blount is appar-
emily an unfit man for the position he
holds. 1t is impossible TO avoid tile con-
clusion that he carried his policy with him
instead of shaping a policy ont of things
rs he found them. BlOunts support of
the New York Herald correspondent is
indefensible. The Herald has always op.
posed annexation as it has opposed the
Nicaragua canal. It's proprietor resides in
Europe and is bsorbed in European
affairs. ANY proposition looking TO the
recognition of the West meets his disap-
prevail. That he should send a CORE
spondent to the islands to write down an
nexation is quite natural; that Mr.
Cleyennd's personal representative should
champion the HerGld's representative is
much TO be regretted. THE CALLS dis
patch says that the Provisional Govern
ment is not disheartened by the unfriendli-
ness of the American Minister. 1t APP
pears, however, that the Provisional Gov
eminent prefers to deal with the Amer-
can Government through its accredited

REFORMS IN PRACTICAL POLITICS

Our neighbors across the Atlantic are
trying to reform their political meth DDS.
A project is on foot in England for the
payment of salaries to members of Parlia-
ment. and another project has been
started in France to vacate the seats of
members of the Chamber who accept
saaried office under the Government.
Both rules were long ago embodied in our
political practice.
The British plan of requiring members
of Parliament to give their services gratu-
tously to the nation is surviving relic of
Tory custom. Its object was TO keep the
House of Parliament in the hands Of the
nobility and their scions. And it has had
that effect. The great bulk of the mem
bers of Parliament are either connected
with noble families or are rich men, or are
lawyers who draw income enough from
Parliamentary cases in which they are re-
tanned to compensate them for their loss
of time in the House. Poor men de-
pendent on their daily labor for their daily
bread cannot conveniently accept an
election to Parliament. THUS that body is
deprived of the services OF some of the
ablest men in the kingdom. 1t has not
unfreQuently happened that a few rich
men have dubbed together to make an
annual allowance to master of political
science on condition that he would consent
to represent a constituency. The impro-
priety of rich men owning a member Of
Parliament is too obvious to need demon
strati0n. 1t is merely a revival of the old
rotten borough system in another shape.
Mr.. GladstOne's Government now pro-
poses to adopt our plan and to pay men,
bers of Parliament. II the reform is
adopted men like John Burns and political
writer's dependent on their zen for their
supp Ort will appear at Westmn ster, OBJ
viously to the public advantage.
The French reform requires members of
the Chamber who accept office under the
Government to yacate their seats. For
this there is a logical reason. A servant
Of Government receiving salary from HE
employers is bound to stand by them
under any and all circumstances, whereas
a member Of the Chamber is bound to con-
slider measures from the point of view of
the public interest and the interest of his
locality as he sees them individually. The
English took this view of the case long
ago. They require member of Parlia-
ment who takes office to resign his mem
bership and go back to his people for re-
election. If he is re- elected he can then
hold the two offices-his office under Gov
eminent and his seat in the House. Thus
the Ministers, who are drawing salaries
for the discharge of their duties as heads
of departments. are generally members of
Parliament. and so are a number of sub
ordnates in the departments. The ad-
vantage of having them in the House,
as under the English system, where they
can answer interpretations and explain
the reasons for the course OF Government.
is so obvious that the French are likely to
limit their exclusion of officials from the
Chamber 10 cases where they are not re-
elected by their constituents.
