Street Railway Extension.

The street railway will soon be completed
down South Flores street and Arsenal street,
making pleasant circuit through one of the
best populated portions of the city, and EN-
bracing its business center.
AS pleasure ride this circuit is especially
desirable South Flores street has some fine
private residences and the beautiful arsenal
grounds, while the river, falls and old mill
above arsenal bridge is perfect delight.
Handsome gardens, neat enclosures and
some really fine private residences lie on
either side the track on the east side of the
river.
The street car company will be compelled
to run this extension at loss, at least for a
while, as the stream of business does not fol-
low circuit, but keeps mainly on the straight
lines east and west, between railway termi-
mails.
The day will come no doubt when real es-
tate tracks will be laid to reach city additions.
IA factthe ew street railroad company might
invest their capital in this direction and find a
profit in the sale of building lots; such extern
sions will have to be kept up at loss, but
they tend greatly to the spread OF city.

ELECTRIC LIGHT AND GAS.

The organization Of an electric hight com
pany in our city promises new era IN our
municipal economy. For twenty years our
CITY has had gas. bat its use has been confined
to hotels. saloons and stores. lthas been too
extensive for private consu~ pton. The city
has been the largest customer and but Tor lhe
city it is doubtful if a ga company could nave
existed. Thus the entire body of our citizens
have borne heavy tax for the sake OF keep
ing up gas company. With the advent o.
railroads and great increase of population,
and spread of business over larger area,
new OPPORTUNITIES are offered our gas COM
panv to extend their works and place then
light at the service Of private consumers. IN
the meantime science has perfected ne"
light by means of electricity, which has large
" supplanted gas throughout the great cities
of America anu Europe, especially tor publlr
uses and large spaces.
We have to congratulate our citizens upon
the establishment of an electric light enter
prise in our city, which in conjunction with
the gas supply will enable the citizens to Sc
cure light cheap and safe at reduced rate.
While certain amount of rivalry will exist
between the two systems, this rivalry will only
be for the benefit of the public.

Cleveland, November 2I.-The second SEES
sion of the federal organized trades and labor
unions began here to-day, Richard Powers, of
Chicago, in the chair. The address of well
come was made by George A. Collins, of the
Cleveland trade assembly. The following Of
6cers were elected: S. Leftenwel of Indian
apolis. president; Samuel +. Howers, of
New York, yice-presidenc Thomas MurCh, Of
Maine, and w. II. Foster, of Cincinnati, sec
retaries. Richard Powers, chairman of the
committee, reported upon labor legislation,
which was the chief topic OF the afternoon
discussion. The report reviews the commit
tees successful work during the year
in behalf of the seamen' bill, and
the Chinese labor bill before con-
gress. the cigar making and tenement house
SiIIs before the New York legislature, and
the convict labor bill before the Ohio legisla-

tn declare combinations of seamens mutiny
and bill in the Ohio legislature entitled a
hill 70 nreyent intimidation OF wOrkmen, which
urescribes punishment for efforts to persuade
men to leave work on any pretext A paper
was read by Frank Z. Foster, Of Cambridge,
Mass IN "Protection versus Wages" which
was an elaborate argument IN favor OF free
trade and against high tariff. Mark L. Craw-
ford, of Chicago, read paper Oh the reduc-
ton of the powers of laborers. The reports

eress will probably be in session four days.
Patent medicine soothing sirups are re-
sponsible for the deaths OF many infants, &C
cording to a paper read before the Chicago
Academy Of Homeopathic Physicians. The
s;rups are said to be composed Of two cents
worth OF laudanum mixed with cents worth
of moIasses and water, selling for twenty-five
cents or more. This stuff is administered with
criminal freedom by lazy nurses and ignorant
mothers. The doctors call on the legislature
70 pass law forcing the makers to label the
mixture poison" as druggist would do il

The Chinese.

1t Is worthy Of mention that Mr.. COR
HAN, the editor OF the Washington Repub-
kcan, is in favor OF the bill TO prohibit the
Immigration OF Chinese TO this country, and
advocates ii in his paper, although HoAR,
HAwLEy, EDMUNps. DAWES. and most OF
the other Republicans in both houses OF
Congress, are opposed TO il. How is this
fact TO be accounted fori Nothing is more
easily done: Mr.. GoRHAM is a Californian.
He knows all about these Chinese wretches,
who already occupy too much Of the earth,
and, knowing their vile natures and dis
gushing habits, does not hesitate 10 differ
with his party leaders, including even the
President Of the United States, on ques-
ton which he deems vital one.
IL is not little singular that even in
Virginia there are 10 be found q few per-
sons who have doubts as to the expediency
oil keeping these hateful Pagans out OF the
United States. Such persons forget thcil
owl experience with. the negroes before
the war and even now. The Yankees
knew more than we did concerning our
own laboring population. So now as TO
the California people, who voted 994 TO 6
against allowing any more Chinese TO come
to this country, some excellent Virginians
are disposed TO set up their uniformed
Judgment against the absolute knowledge
y our California brethren.
