Street Lamps.

We are glad TO hear that our getty Fathers
are agitating the question Of furnishing our
streets with few lamps. This is move in
the right direction. The condition sf~our
walks cell for lamps or extensive repairs-
Now that the wet and muddy season of winter
is rapidly approaching, we must have lamps or
ferry boats, at some of our street crossings
The cost of lamps would be but trifing, and
we are certain our citizens would cheerfully
pay for this much needed improvement.

It is claimed that the EVENING COMMERCIAL has
proven itself to be
THE BEST EVENING PAPER EVER PUB
LISHED IN BALTIMORE,
The want ofsuch paper has long been felt in
this communfty--a paper whose publishers real
ize the fact that an evening paper should be a
fresh and original morning. paper, and nos
merely rehash of the stale news of the morning
with such additional clippings as could be OBJ
tanned from later mails; and that an evening pa
per can, by proper enterprise anticipate the
morning press In the publication of events which,
occur throughout the country from, midnight 20.
tG time ofits issue, Just as well as the meTnlng
papers can oecapy the f-ld besweea these hodrs
reversed. The Evening Commercil has so far
demonstrated this fact by laying the public, in.
advance OF the morning press, accounts of most
important occurrences which hnye TRANSFERRED
since ats first issue. The assassination of ID Arcy
McGee, full particulars of the great railway
Trial and numerous other matters of interest,
have been secured by the reading public first
through the columns of the paper. s-'-g
The present arrangements for the reception
of news are not designed to be of ephemeral exis-
teuce. They will be continued as an
ABLISHED FEATURE OF THE PAPER,
and efforts will be constantly made to add to.
rather than detract from, the interest of the pa~
per in allits departments.
