We see it stated in Richmond letter to
the Danvilie Post that Colonel John R.
Strother, senator-elect from this district, is
spoken Of. as a probable candidate against
Colonel Samuel Swami for the office OF
( Superintendent OF the Penitentiary. The
letter further states that Colonel Strother
."ls tue man whom the Mahoneites brag Of
5as having written General Malone letter
tpledging his vote for, him as United States
senator" We hardly think that this can be
true, as Colonel Strother was elected from
this district as Northumberland. man,
and therefore cannot easily go back on his
constituency. Somebody has probably mis-
informed the Posts correspondent on this
point. Ca!pepeY Times. s:,aa

The Electric Light.
MR.. EDISON PROMISES TO HAVE 1T IN OPERATION
ON CHRlSTMAS-EyE.

MR.. EDISON PROMISES TO HAVE 1T IN OPERATION
ON CHRlSTMAS-EvE.
Mr.. Thomas A. Edison promises that on
Christmas-eve he will illuminate, by means
of the electric light, all the buildings in
Menlo Park, the New Jersey town i'll which
he lives. To that end wires have been run
from house to house, and connected thence
with his laboratory. The illumination will
be by means of what might be called electric
Jets, but which, more properly speaking,
are small spirals of platinum and iridium
in state OF incandescence in vacuum.
The dynamo-electrc machines, whence
the current is generated, are already
set up in the laboratory. One OF these, hay
ing power OF forty horses, will generate
sufficient electricity for 100 lights, each OF
16-candle power, which is the measurement
Of electric intensity. That is to say, the
extraordinary phenomenon may be seen on
Christmas-day in Menlo Park Of electric
lights toned down to the intensity OF gas
lets. In few days Mr.. Edison will begin
the task Of afixing the jets, so called, upon
The gas.burners in the several houses. In
stead Of running the. wires that ar, to trans
nit the current through the eas-pipes, as it
is his intention to do shortly in this city. for
this occasion he will lay the wires along the
pipes.
"I shall send invitations far and wide,"
said Mr.. Edison last Wednesday, " in order
that all may see that what has been consid-
cred as visionary and impossible has been
accomplished. The thing is done. / have
protected it in this country and every con-
siderable country in Europe-that is to say.
there are only a few unimportant parts OF
Europe yet remaining uncovered, and these
will be so before the advent OF the holidays.
You ask me if can compete with car
bureted hydrogen gas. Let the gas compa-
MES reduce their price, and then reduce it
again-ior it is well known they can still do
this and make money-and can undersell
them and make large profit"

Tha Repnhlicans.

We have said elsewhere in to-day's issue,
as we bad said often before, that the Re-
publican party claims to be opposed to re-
pudiation, or anything that seems to be re-
pudiation. The Baltimore american, the
leading Republican journal in the South,
says in its issue Of Saturday last:
"The last Republican State Convention
held in Virginia declared in favor OF the
payment OF the debt, and that is where the
party now stands. ANY other position
would convert il into an irregular, guerilla
band, with whom the national Republican
party could have no fellowship"
II the american is good authority, or the
New York Tribune, or any leading Repub-
lican journal or man, then the Republicans
in our Legislature cannot be expected to
side with the enemies OF the McCULLocR
settlement.

The PROPOSED SUBSCRIPTION BY THE CITY
TO THE JAMES RIVER AND KANAWHA CON-
PANy.-The action Of the Council in refer
ring the matter OF this subscription to the
vote OF the people was eminently wise and
proper, and we have no doubt the Board OF
Aldermen, at their meeting next Wednes-
day evening, will take similar action. The
members Of both bodies, being the servants
of the people, cannot refuse to do what
those people may desire at their hands;
and we know Of nothing proposed for the
benefit Of the city where the matter re-
ceived the appreciation of so many OF our
best and most prudent businessmen as this
Of referring the question OF the subscrip-
| ton TO the vote of the people. "*+

The Republican Members,

"Are you right, or are your opponents
right? They claim many if not most OF
the Republican members Of the General AS
sehbly as Readiusters, and you claim them
as Debt-Payers ?" Such questions are
asked US daily. We can answer only that,
as we haye often said, the Republican party
claims to bea Debt-Paying party always and
everywhere, and to be opposed to all forms
of reputation, and to whatever savors OF
reputation. II the Republican members
OF the Legislature do not act up to the creed
Of their party they will lose their standing
with the northern Republicans. We don't
think that they can be bribed by either Of
fees or money to iorsake the Republican
creed or break down this platform Of the
Republican party.

the recommendation contained therein,
while they are ackno wledged to be OF great
importance, are SO conservative as TO aVold

maintains that the misunderstanding system
shall be retained and encouraged as legiti-
mate aid to the Government in supplying
currency for general public use, and also as
a legitimate line OF personal or private busi-
ness enterprise. But he recognizes the ne
cessity, and availability Of an interchange
able currency, such as the greenbaek sys-
tenn furnishes, and does not advise any In
terruption in the issue OF Government
notes. The repeal of the egaltender act
is discussed at length, and suggested or re.
commended. The effect OF the adoption OF
this suggestion, as explained to the Ma
tional Republican by a prominent banker
who read the report yesterday, would be to
compel in the future an explicit under"
standing regarding commercial contracts,
whether they should be paid in paper or
coin. The argument is advanced that as
preeubacks are now at par, and will remain
so for an indefinite period, the compulsory
understanding would not Inconvenience
any one, for the reason that the interchange
ability OF the several kinds OF currency will
