As long as we “ape other civilized nations in sending representa- tives to the “courts” of the world, the sping process should be pursued to the extent of placing our representatives on an equal footing with those of other countries. National dignity requires tuat we either dress our public serv- ants abroad in all the customary diplomatic frills and flounces, or else abolish them as use- Jets extravagances. vise nane-sund Wee UaeaRis tS The public are reminded that the electric light is in its second decade by the celebra- tion this week at Providence. RL, of the thirteeath annusl meeting of the National Electrie Light Association. The gathering commemoraies the first decennial of electric lighting. This important event should ve util- ited, it is suggested, by adopting some means of protecting the eyesight of those who hubit- ually use the light. Its intense power is caus- ing. #0 eminent oculists say, great irritation of tie retina, inflammation of the optic nerve and other diseases of the eye. Any light of equal intensity would produce precisely the same re- sults. A London ocuiist, who has treated « large number of cases, finds that the electric light, to be harmless, must be guarded with frosted white glues or an opal-tinted shade, or covered with a colored fringe. Softening of the light and burial of the wires are the popular recommendations to the electric light men in convention assembled. ——_ += — ‘The election of Mr. Peffer in Kausas and of Mr. Kyle in South Dakota, both irslependents, reduces the republican majority in the Senate to fonr. If Gen. Palmer should be chosen by the democrats and the farmers’ perty in Ili- nois that majority will fall to two, with the possibility of further loss after March 4, 1893. ‘The most vital consideration to the country at large in this connection is the fact that the House of the Fifty-second Congress is known to be in favor of free silver coinage by about two-thirds, and the aceessions to the Senate are pledged to the same experiment. Well may the business interests of the eust and center rally around the leaders in the respective old parties who contend for conservative methods. ee Senator Plumb is reminded of a society col- umn in Tue Stam by Mr. Smalley’s letter to the Trivune, which Senator Hoar describes as “@ pretty good specimen of racy, idiomatic, sparkling English.” Senator Plumb is evi- dently s close and appreciative student of Tux Sran’s society columns. This discovery is as unexpected as it is gratifying, for it had not been supposed that a bustling masculine from the state of binusterons buncombe and sockless statesmanship would be interested in reading of high teas, receptions and other society didves. —— +e Sinee the shelving of the force bill the energy displayed by Congress has been conspicuons. It now seems psubable that the House will pass the laste the regular annual appropriation measates before the week closes. With the {e-ility always shown by the Senate in the dis- patch of business at the end of a session it may coutilently be expected that everything of prime vecessity will be cleared off the docket March 4. Congress is a loquacious body, bat it isalso when aroused a working bods. ‘The Baltimore and Obie scored two victories yesterday. One was the favorable action of the House District committee upon its “loop” bill with a few good amendments, and the other was its defeat of the Washington and Camber- land road's project of entering the District. It accomplished its second victory disguised as “the Chesapeake and Obio bondholders of 1804." —— The Springtield Repulican calls attention to “the pleasing symbolism” involved in the burial of Grant in the north, of Sheridan in the south, aud of Sherman in the west. As the e- publican says, between them im death they hold together the three great sections of one vastand united nation. — ee There is a Maryland immigration con- vention in Baltimore today. Improvement of the roads of the state would furnish the strongest inducement to immigration into Maryland that remaius to be supplied. = — Sir John A. Macdonald is bysterieslly patri- otie nowadays. in speeeh and printed mani- festo he is repeatedly being born and dying a Briton. Aud he wants all of modern, progres- sive Canada to die with him. teen Comsidering her newness idano might be sat- iaGed with four Senators, but if her past exam- ple is worth anything she will donble up on herself before the winds of March cease to blow. —_—_--+___ Amepof Alabama's congressional gorry- mander looks like the trail of the serpent. The disfranchised republicans aver that its results do not belie its looks. — — Are we never to have peace?
