old days of smooth boie and muzzleloading cannon it required several minutes to 1oad and fire tho gun and this lapse of tlmo was meant to Indicate a friendship trust in the mission of tho warship of another power In the beginning of the salute in the Jfnitgd States the one for the Union gave one gun for each state Finally the national salute was fixed at twen tyone guns The president as well as the presidents of foielgn republics and sovereigns of foreign slates aro saluted with twentyone guns The Raluto for nmbassadois of this or other nations Is nineteen guns Tho vice president of the United States also Is entitled to a ninoteengun salute Admfials and cabinet members aro entitled to seventeen guns ministers plenipotentiary and vice admirals fif toon and the commanding officer of a
