from the money actually paid out in
rents. can the county AFFORD to ex-
pose it's records to the dangers OF
being destroyed for any money con-
sideration. The records in the Re-
corder's office could be replaced at an
expense placed on the work by the
| abstractors OF the county, but the
yalua bic records of all the other of
fees would be wholly lost, an irrepar-
able injury to our county So long
as the court house lis isolated there IL
little danger of fire, and with the adj

are absolutely safe. There is always

time it will break out.

ADMIRAL SIMPSONS VIEWS ON ARMA-
MENT FAvoRABLY CONSIDERED

MENT FAVCRABLY CONSIDERED.
washington, July LIN view of the discus
sion that has been caused among naval author
tiles anent the adoption of the report of the
Naval Board in favor Of the construction Of
three of the five new batteships with super
posed turrets. Secretary Long has called atten-
ton to the fact that the Departments circular
upon which bids will be invited for the construc-
ton Of the ships is not absolutely conclusive as
to the character of the armament.
Admiral Simpsons plan, looking to the use of
superposed turrets each end of the vessel
and the abandonment of the heavy four S-inch
turrets one at each corner of the superstructure,
in favor of eight 6-inch guns in shields on the
broadsides has commended itself strongly to
the Department, and it is said that the De-
partment is still open to other possible i'm
provement in the arrangement OF ordnance.
To this end the circulars are being framed
so as to permit the shipbuilders to submit bids
not only upon the Departments plan, but also
upon plans of their own That this may be
done with advantage is shown, and to Secre-
tary Longs satisfaction, by the adoption for one
OF the big battleships now building Of plans
submitted by the Cramps in preference to the
Departments own design, and the same thing
may occur in the case of the new ships
