Admiral F. B. Upham, chief of the
Bureau of Navigation, in approving the
report Of the Inspection Board, said
that in the event that one officer and
one chief petty officer from each fleet
division should be authorized for three
months training duty, with pay. each
year, for fleet concentration training,
it is estimated that not over Is per
cent OF those authorized could get away
from their civilian employment during
this time. He said that the number
OF persons taking this cruise each year
would therefore be approximately 81
officers, with the average rank of lieu
tenant, and 81 chief petty officers. The
total annual cost OF the foregoing Is
estimated at $4,000. He said, how
the 1884 budget estimate for this pur-
pose.
He said further that If once every
four years the annual training cruise
for each division should be extended
to six weeks instead of two weeks.
there would be 81 divisions each year
performing six weeks training duty
and l12 performing two weeks Grain
ing duty. 1t is estimated that not
over so per cent Of the personnel gu
thorized to perform extended cruises In
excess of two weeks could get away
from their civilian occupations. On
this basis the increase in costs for pay
and subsistence for this purpose is es-
timated at sl67,297. He added that
funds for this purpose were not esti-
mated in the 1884 budget.
Admiral w. V. Pratt. chief Of naval
operations said that no modification
Of the assignment Of vessels for the
training OF Naval Reserve is recon-
mended at the present time. With
reference to giving the fleet Reserve
more extended cruise every three or
four years, this is approved, provided
funds are available and these cruise3
are made at such times as not to in
terfere with the required l5-day train
ing period Of feet divisions

Omcers and men Of the several divi-
sions of the LIST Battalion, United States
Naval Reserves Of the District Of Column
bia, are continuing to get much val
liable training out Of the converted mo-
tor launch which has been assigned
here by the Navy Department. Lieut..
Fewell and several members Of his divi-
sion last week went down to Colonial
Beach during the week end and on the
voyage down and back the enlisted per-
sonnet received instructions in plotting.
steering, taking soundings and other
naval practices.
The provision of the launch Is said to
have filled a great need for the local
battalion, since the department decided
to take away the destroyer which YVES as
signed here for training purposes. AS a
matter Of fact, it was pointed out, the
smaller vessel is used much more than
the larger one, as 1t Is not difficult to
get enough men to man 1t on each week
end
While the boat will be used until ice
in the river makes 1t necessary to haul
1t out for the season, it is probable
that by that time one Of the training
division destroyers of the Atlantic Fleet
will come here for stay Of several
months so that the men may be taken
aboard 1t at regular intervals for drill.
While facilities have been installed in
the armory for Stimulating destroyer
drills, 1t was said that the real training
is received aboard a vessel. Owing to
the governmental economy move, the
local reserves did not have a sea cruise
this year, but they are hoping that con-
ditions will so improve by next Summer
that Congress will provide the necessary
funds for tho ira ming

Ounseith. N. D.. June 17.-tP--
Charging the T. " A. administration
with extravaganza in government.
William LANCER. Nonpartisan League
candidate for governor, in an address
here Thursday night reiterated his
pledge to reduce state expenditures by
one million dollars for the biennium,
If he Is elected along with a majority
of the state legislature.
when Governor Shafer addressed a
Fargo service club three years ago,
when he was a candidate for office, he
stated that there were too many
commissions; that there were too
many people on the payroll. and that
if he became governor he would con-
Solidate some of the commissions and
jobs" LANCER said.
He was elected and instead of COM
bining any of the commissions and
jobs. we find the last session of the
legislature, controlled by the 1. v. A..
creating five new commissions and 65
new jobs"
In connection with his pledge for
reducing state expenditures at least
one million dollars biennially, LANCER
said. Il pledge that if you elect a ma
jority of members to the legislature
who are pledged to the Nonpartisan
League platform, that we will run the
state of North Dakota at least one mil
lion dollars less biennially than it has
been run under the Shafer-Hyland-
Morris regime. and that we will do it
without in any manner impairing the
efficiency of good government
LANCER vigorously attacked the
state department heads employing
married women or relatives. He
charged nepotism is practiced to such
an extent that one department head
in a state office had in his employ
sons and daughters and nephews to
the extent of drawing combined SAL
aries of over a thousand dollars
monthly.
Il believe that while so many heads
of families are out of job" said
LANCER. that we should not tolerate
the practice of nepotism in state af-
fairs. and the practice will be done
away with if am elected to head our
state government"
