B0ST0N'S TARGET DRILL
A GOOD RECORD MADE AT La
HAMA.
The officers Proud Of the Work Of thei
Batteries Superiority Of Yankee
Guns.

The target practice of the Boston last
Monday at Lahaina was one of the most
successful gun drillsheld since that YES
sci has been in port. Eighty. eight shots
were fired from the secondary and main
batteries, over distances ranging from
1900 to 2Ioo yards. Many Of the shots
were very accurately made, the target
being struck a number of times This
record is considered highly satisfactory,
both in fire and result. Forty shots
were discharged from the 8-inch guns,
each one of which costs the govern,
ment in the neighbour hood of sos.
Twelve shots were let off in order to
test the powder now in use.
On Monday, which was the hardest
working day experienced, the results
were such as are seldom accom-
plished by any other war ship within
the same period of time. Taken
altogether the officers pronounce this
practice to be the most encouraging
ever made by the vessel.
United States naval officers are
to-day greater experts in ordnance
than those of any other military or
naval service in the world, and the
guns that are now mounted on the
Boston are the creation of American
mechanics and are superior to any OF
the same calibre of Armstrong. The
eight-inch guns only weigh thirty.siS
tons, whereas the same class and calibre
on the English vessels will reach up
ward of sixty tons. The bursting strain
of these eightinch guns IS about
twenty tons.

May Bring a Libel Suit.

A recent article in the Call accused
George Lycursus OF being concerned
in opium smuggling. The Chronicle
came to the defence Of George and
told him if he would sue the Call he
could get as heavy damages, no doubt,
as he recovered from the Alta years
ago for a similar libel. Mr. Lycurgus
has not yet made up his mind as to

A NEW DEPARTURE.


 Monday congress again convened in regular session, and on Tuesday the Presidents annual message was pre- 'ented and read to both houses. The comments of various senators and con- gressmen have been telegraphed to the press and published in connection herewith. It is noticeable that those doughfaces who are ever looking for executive fayors all commend the doe ument; but the sterling old statesmen like Palmer of Illinois, who have opinions that are not colored by hopes for patronage, are not slow in eXpres- sing their differences in opinion with the president on many of the subjects treated But the sharpest and most correct criticism comes from Ex- Speaker Reed, and is a well-f0unded criticism not only of the president but of the majority of the ways and means committee. TIE OASIS quotes MT ieONN ph tlidN ll'ihi ih iulis
 That part of the message which relates to tariff asseverates that the House committee in charge of that subject has formulated plans and de- yised methods of taxation which as a member of the committee. 1 have not even heard proposed. 1t is rather an unusual sensation to learn the deeds of the committee, not in the committeeman, but from the Pres ident of the United States. Has that committee ceased, in form, to be com posed of both parties, and has it, with out even the formality of a word in open committee, informed the Pres
 dent of it's determination in such a way that the President can officially communicate it to the House?
 How long has it been a part of our system that a committee of an inde- pendent branch, and, above all, the committee which controls the purse. shall report to Congress through the President? Is this the result of the rumored blending of the appointye with the legislative power? IL is bad enough to have the tariff made up by a little coterie. but to have it com municated to the President before 1t reaches even the committee, still less the House, shows determination to be moved by no facts, and modified by no arguments, which makes appa- rent the abSurdity of appointing Re publicans on the committee on ways and means at all

In framing the new tariff bill the ways and means committee of congress contemplates leyying an income tax If it is revenue they want, in the pres ent condition of affairs an "outgo7 tax would hit the mark closer.
