4 THE EVEN WASHINGTON: TUPADAY -August 27, 1889, HOSEY Ss NOYES... and as an Advertising Medium ie worth more than all the ether papers published New York Office Room 93, Tribune Building, oo The litigation between the gas company and the incandescent hght company to determine which sball furnish illumination to the north- west section of the city is of great local in- terest, The main contentions of the gas com- pany are that the authority given by the appro- priation act to the Commissioners to substitute other illuminating material for gas at the eame or less price cannot now be exercised, since, it is claimed, a binding contract for gas for the current year has already been made, and can not be exercised in favor of the incandescent light, because, as it is claimed, this form of illumination is not furnished ‘‘at the same or less price,” as required; also that the authority to substitute other illuminating ma- terial does not include the right to select asa substitute the electric light, since specifie pro- vision for electric lighting is made elsewhere in the act, and since, to make this substitution, the Commissioners must authorize the tearing up of the streets for the laying of electric wires underground, which, it is claimed, they may not legally do, except in cases where the wires to be buried are already strung overhead, The incandescent light company and the Com- missioners claim that the power to substitute other illuminating material for gas gives all the authority that is needed in the matter; that the light is cheaper and better than gas and that the substitution is of material at ‘a less price;” that the limitation suggested by the limited authority given them to permit the burial of existing overhead wires applies only to private corporations serving individuals, and that the right given to the municipality to substitute other material in place of gas for its own use carries with it the power to break the surface of the public streets so far as is necessary to effect such substitation. The discussion whether the incandescent light is or is not cheaper and better than gas, with the evidence sub- mitted on this point, cannot fail to be instructive to the public. If a superior sys- tem of lighting at less expense is proposed, of which the Commiss@jners are evidently con- vinced, then the people will be desirous of se- curing its benetits, either now, or in the future under further legislation, if that is necessary. As to the legal question of the right of the Commissioners under the existing law to break the city’s streets for the purpose of accom- plishing an authorized change in the system of public lighting the public will await the decis- ion of the court, hoping that the question may be settled at an early date. The public is in- terested on the one hand in the prevention of any act by the Commissioners which is consid- ered by the court to amount to a surrender of the public streets to a private corporation without the direet authority of Congress; and on the other hand it is anxious to avail iteelf as soon as possible of improvements in methods of street lighting, and of any legal method of escape from p oor and expensive gas. The cities in South Dakota on the edge of the Sioux reservation are still contending vYigorously that the reservation can be opened this summer by proclamation of the President without a ratification of the sagree- ment by Congress. There seems to be no very good reason in the abstract why Congress should be called upon to approve an agree- ment which it has authorized the commission to make; but the law under which the com- mission is appointed by the President ex- plicitly requires such ratification. If the com- mission had been appointed by the Secretary of the Interior under the implied authority of the law authorizing him to make this agree- ment with the Indians, it would be possible to consider that the other law giving the Presi- dent authority to appoint a commission for this purpose, whose action must be ratified by Congress, had been waived. But the Presi- dent, not the Secretary, appointed the com- mission; and the rush for the new country can- not legally begin until Congress has acted. The border cities will have their “boom” next spring, instead of this fall, —— + <—____ The big strike in London is not fully appre- ciated in this country. When the single trade of dock laborers can turn out 45,000 men for a strikers’ parade it means something. Such a multitude, with their families, allowing the common estimate of five persons to a house- hold, would populate @ region like the District of Columbia or a city like New Orleans, There are other masses of workingmen, equally strong, who threaten to follow the dock labor- ers out if their demands are not acceded to. ble ch: teristic of the present move- ‘ts perfect peacefulness.

Bradley of Asbury Park, N.J., the founder of that resort and the practi- cal dictator of its fortunes. If, in such a com- munity, it would have been possible to make prohibition a success, Mr. Bradley would have made it, with his wealth, energy and en- thusiasm, The trouble is, of course, that the Park is not an ordinary village, but a little summer city by the sea, and the rules which govern villages as distinguished from cities do not prevail there. There is little of that local spirit which impels the patriarchs of an ordi- Bary settlement to stand by each other in en- forciug laws which they have themselves decided to establish. Mr. Bradley is a reluctant convert. He takes up high license asa resort from ap evil very muc bh worse.
