The various experiments III lighting rooms or
large spaces with electricity, which our local
columns have from time 10 tluc chTonIclcd. have an
exceedingly practical interest tor all orr readers.
In France the electric light has already superseded
gas and every Other form of illumination for large
factories and other places where one or
two strong steady lights. placed at a con-
siderable height and ditlused by rclectors
through Il large room, will servo the purpose of
hundreds of separate gas burner, or candles. In
such cases the electric light has been found at
tar stronger stcadcr and cheaper than any other.
II has never, however. been adapted for III sep
aratcoiiiccs or private dwellings. The difficulty hith
crto insurmouutabr, has been in dividing The cleo
tric current furnished by any machine, to give
different lights of small power wherever they may
bc needed. The moment this problem Is solved, the
electric light Will inevitably drive out gas. and may
even Danish kerosene to remote country districts.
la the experiments described yesterday, the in
ycntor claims that lie has succeeded in dividing one
current as to produce sixteen lights. Much
greater diyisblity than this is needed before the
full capacity OF the electric light can be developed ;
but if even this is made practical II will be found
to work an cnormous change in the common
methods OF illumination.

The purpose of the Democratic demagogues who
undertook to limit the employment of the Army in
keeping the peace at home, was doubt to prevent
the President from using it at tho request of Gov
ernors OF States, AS he did last Summer. to quel
saying that il was the interference of the Federal
Government which Disconnected and crushed them
at the time of tho railway strikes, and they think
that will not happen again. Bnt thanks to the Sem
ate, the Army Bill as il passed leaves the President
ample power to enforce tho laws by the and of the
Army when they cannot DO enforced by other means.
and II the occasion arise we have no doubt that
power will DO freely and promptly exercised. Tho

Unless there is some sudden change in the
situation, to-day is likely to be a day OF blood
in Montreal. The excitement continues at
fever heat. Up to late hour last night. the

men from marching to-day, while Sir Sclby
Smythc was apparently resolved to protect
them should they persist i'll the contcm-
plated celebration. The Mayors forces
consist of police special conStablcS, and

side The magistrates have split into factions.
General Smythc is an experienced officer. and
has prepared plan of defence which Will
give his disciplined men great advantages
over the raw civilians. who are dubbed special
conStablrs. The conflict of military ana Cvll
authority which has thus been developed
greatly cmhittCIS the scCtaTlan and national
hate which the anniversary generates. Law

with which they have asserted the legality
of each view of the controversy. Per

THE ND1A
From the Sierra Nsvsdas Eastward IL Has
a Most Gloomy Aspect.

II is a fact that Gen. Crook and other
leading military men in the department
OF the Platte, are extremely anxious
concerning the Indian situation, which
they look upon as extremely critical;
in fact, SO than it has for years
past.
The hostilities of the Bannocks and
the Shoshones, who heretofore have
been friendly to the Government, fur
nishing soldiers and scouts from their
tribes to assist Gen. Crook in putting
down Indian outbreaks in the past years,
is very significant. When Gen. Crook
and his aids visited the Bannock agency
near Fort Hall, Idaho, some weeks ago
the chiefs said that rations issued for
sever days were consumed at the end
Of four days. This failure of the Gov
eminent to give proper rations is at the
bottom Of all their hostilities.
The Utes are also very much demon
allied. They have been away from
their reservation since last fall, and
they refuse to return. They gave the
same cause alleged by the Bannocks,
for the our they have taken. This
tribe numbers several hundred lodges.
No open act of hostility has yet occur
red, but such may be expected any day.
The course that Sitting Bull will
take depends entirely and solely on the
buffalo. If the latter come south he
will follow with his hostiles, and that
will mean war. The Canadian police
report that game is getting scarce, and
on a recent occasion, a hunting party
from Sitting Bulls camp went one
hundred miles north before they en-
countered a buffalo herd.
The Sioux at Spotted Tail and Red
Cloud agencies are greatly discontinued
because the Government has not pro-
vided a reservation for them this spring
as was promised last fall, when they
were moved to the upper Missouri river.
These Indians are procuring arms and
ammunition and are constantly leaving
for the north.
j Altogether Indian matters from the
Sierra Nevada eastward have a most
gloomy aspect.

No, lettering to It's Fall.

An excited journalist in Colorado
looking through a pair of Democratic
spectacles of great magnifying power,
''sees the Republican party tottering
to its fall" oh, he does, does he?
Then he had better stand from under,
for when it does come down, 1t will
come like a thousand of brick. This
won't be the first time it has tottered
to its fall, and it always made a success
Of it heretofore. 1t tottered to its fall
nee and fell upon Breckenridge, and
for nearly five years thereafter it tot
tered around on the Democratic party,
and nearly trampled it entirely and in
ternally off the Democratic slate. 1t
fell upon poor Mr.. Greeley and fattened
him out badly. 1t fell upon one Gen.
McClellan and a party Of. the name Of
Seymour. More recently it fell upon
Sammy Tilden, and made him think he
was t~respassing upon II landslide.
Whenever it falls we notice that who
ever stands in the way gets hurt. And
it may be that the excited journalist
had tarried too long at his spectacles
and didn't see straight. It may be that
the Republican party, instead of totter-
ing to its fall, was merely STOPPING to
pick up a club. And if such was the
case, there will be wailing and gnash-
ing of teeth before long. The Repub-
lican party is all here yet. 1t is right
where it always was, and is ready for a
fight this fall as 1t was last November.
And it isn't going to ''totter to its fall'
until it has named a few more Presi-
dents.
