THE CONDON CLOBE.
FRIDAY, JULY 3, I89S,
THE OFFICIAL PAPER OF GILLIAM
COUNTY. OREGON.
NOT ENCOURAGING.
TimM-Monntainevr.
Senator J. A. Smith of Gilliam
county returned Erklay from Port
land. While in that city he con
ferred with Cpt Fisk, chief of the
engineer5 corps in charge of the
works at Cascade Locks, with ref
erence as to when work is likely to
to be resumed and when the canal
would nrobablv be opened. He
learned from Capt. Fi$k that nego
tiations were being made with Day
Bros, for performing the work, but
no agreement had been reached;
also that the engineer's department
had Hot as yet determined whether
the locks would be opened when
the walls , between the lock and
lower guard gate were concreted, or
whether they would b kept closed
until solid masonry walls were
built. In case the former is deter
mined upon, the canal can be op
erated this fall, but if masonry
walls are to be built first, the date
of opening is indefinite.
This is rather discouraging to
Mr. Smith, who is one of the prime
movers in the organization of the
Columbia Portage & Navgation
Company, which was incorporated
for the purpose of building a port
age road around the Ceiiloand
dalles falls. .... Without the locks in
operation the portage road would
be of little value, hence when work
will be commenced on the road de
pends upon what is done at the
Cascades. However, the incorpo
rators will continue selling stock,
and will hold a stockholders' meet
ing on July 31st for the purpose of
perfecting organization, so that they
will be in readiness to begin con
struction as soon as it is definitely
known when the locks will be ready
to operate. '
The longest distance that a shot
has been fired is a" few yards over
15 miles, which was the range of
Krupp's well-known "monster"
130-ton steel gun, firing a shot
weighing 2600 pom. is. Tie 100
ton Armstrong gun has an extreme
range of 14 miles, firing, a shot
weighing 1890 pounds and requir
ing 960 pounds of powder. These
guns, however, proved too expen
sive, being unable to stand firing a
hundred times, and their manufac
ture has practically been abandon
ed. The 90-ton Armstrong gun
hurls a solid shot for a distance of
12 miles, and the, discharge of the
gun cannot be heard at the place
where the ball strikes. From 12
to 13 miles is the computed range
of the most powerful guns now
made, and to obtain that range an
elevation of nearly 45 degrees is
found to be necessary.
A balloon has been built in Paris
which is said to be the most won
; derful balloon ever constructed and
it has been constructed for a most
wonderful purpose a journey , to
the North Pole. The balloon route
to the pole is the only one left; all
others have proved a failure. If the
venture succeeds France will, of
course.' claim the glory for which
English speaking nations have
striven far more than a century.
If it fails it will be one more added
.to .the wrecks that strew the path
science has made toward what has
proved the impassable barrierwhich
bars men from no one knows what.
In San Francisco they are making
an effort to punish assessors for
mak rig undervaluations. One has
been indicted for perjury, the spe
cific charge being his sworn report
of property worth 17,500,000 at a
valuation of 4,000,000. If this kind
of prosecution gets 'popular and is
eucccBsful in the courts the peniten
tiaries will have to be enlarged,
England has just submitted a
powerful argument in favor of in
ternational arbitration. It takes
the form of a budget appropriating
$70,000,000 for new men-of-war.
