the world that he will give it light
that will take the place of gas, and be
much cheaper. He claims that the
problem is solved. Nothing is lacking
but a few minor details. His horse
power, generator, insulator, meter and
dynamometer are perfected, but he is
still experimenting on a lamp. He
says that he has reached seven as-jets
per horsepower, and thinks that he can
increase them to ten. AS long as he
can increase the number of lights per
horse power, just so long will he con-
tinue the experiments.
Meanwhile the public has become i'm
patient. Some newspapers carp at the
inventor and deride him. 1t will do to
welt. The man certainly has confidence
in his own powers, and his record as an
inventor is untainted. He is not the
only interest at stake. He must also
consider the interests of those who
have pinned their faith to him by their
investments.
Il must start with perfect plant,
he says. 1t will cost millions to light g
great city. If there are ipperfections in
the machinery, they ought to be dis
covered before it is used, and not after
ward. 1t would cost fortune to change
seven-iet machine for one giving ter
jets per horsepower.
On the whole, in the absence of any
other Edison, we do not see that peo
pie impatient for electric illumination
can do much better than to wait til
this Mr.. Edison gets ready.-Ne,,

dollar, on the evidences of debts,
bonds, mortgages and the like, cover
every form under which debt is re-
corded, and are so drawn as to con-
tinue the practice under which public
corporations, cities and towns deduct
the local tax from the coupons on their
bonds presented for payment by the
owners outside of the State. Mortgages
given in the purchase of real estate are
exempted from all but State taxation.

RUNoUsLY low prices for cotton
goods are discouraging the English
manufacturers. Manchester papers in
innate that an effort to- remedy this
condition will be made by reducing
production, and that, to this end, there
is likely to be general resort to the
short-time system. In the nature OF
things it is impossible that such an ex-
pedient can have any permanent reliev'
ing effect. If the pressure OF goods
upon the market is materially abated
by the temporary closing of factories in
England, or by the curtailment OF their
production, manufacturers In other
countries will quickly supply any deficit
that may follow. 1t is no longer pcssi-
BILE for any one country to control the
worlds markets. The difficulty in En-
gland is excessive population and labor,
and chronic tendency to manufacture
more of certain goods than there is a
demand for at home or abroad. The
obvious remedy is diversion of labor
from overcrowded pursuits, and an ex-
portation of people who cannot by any
possibility find profitable employment
in the British islands.
