The San Francisco Post, a Republican
newspaper, after speaking Of Hills ma.
jority in New York, asks: "Why were
the Republicans beaten? The answers
will be many and various, but the truth
cannot be blinked that the result teaches
that President Cleveland's administra.
ton is much more highly thought of by
the people of New York than was gen.
orally supposed. 1t was admitted by all,
except the Mugwumps, that the defeat
Of Hill would be a staggering blow to
the Administration. Consequently,
Hills election must be taken as IN in.
dorsement Of the President by his own
State. This victory has undoubtedly
strengthened the President and his party
throughout the country"

THE TRANSMISSION OF ELEC.
TRICAL POWER.

Niagara contains power enough to
operate all the machinery in New York
State by electricity, were it possible to
transmit the electric current economic.
ally and safely any distance, instead of
only about twenty-five miles. Baron de
Rothschild has been prominent in the
electrical enterprises Of Paris, and be
bore the expense of the recent expert
ment OF transmitting ar electrical cur
rent of forty.horse power between Creil
and La Villette, q distance of IS kilo.
meters, or nearly forty miles. M. De-
prez's report to the French Academy OF
Sciences that the experiment was com.
pletely successful, no heating OF the wire
or of the dynamo having occurred, pro.
vokes inquiry as to whether further de.
velopments in the same direction may
not be expected, so that it will be pos
sible to utilize water-power for the gen.

cially interesting to the people of Buffalo
and smaller towns near Niagara, says the
New York Mail and Express, and even
Rochester might obtain from the Falls
electricity for the illumination of its
streets and buildings, and for the pro.
pulsion of its street cars, were the prob.
lem Of the transmission of electrical
power long distances to be solved. The
telephone can now be used for converse
tion between New York and Boston, and
even between more distant points, and
its development certainly encourages the
hope that Baron de Rothschild's invest.
ment in experiments for the improve
ment Of the transmission of electrical
power will be still further rewarded.
Electricians have already accomplished
stupendous results, and the public must
not be impatient for the achievement of
all that has been promised or represented
as probable, but a study of the progress
of electrical discovery in recent years
certainly justi6es the faith that cleo.
tricity is the force which is yet to accom-.
plish the mightiest industrial revolution
the world has ever seen.

Natural gas is doing great injury to
the coal business in Pittsburg and other
cities of that section. Several prominent
New York gentlemen recently examined
into tho practical benefits of the new
discovery. They noted the effect of the
fuel on the iron, as compared with the
results obtained by using coal. In the
manufacture Of tubes it is said that when
coal was used, one day each week was set
apart for rewelding pipes which had, be-
cause of the inequality Of heat, been i'm.
perfectly welded. Since natural gas has
been introduced defective Yields occur
rarely, and only . part Of q day in each
month is required to work up the defect.
i've pipes into smaller sizes. This results
from the uniform heat created by natural
gas.

The conviction OF Editor Stead, of the
Pail Mall Gazette, in London yesterday,
was nothing less than an infamous and
lasting disgrace to the country that per-
mitted it. Stead exposed in his paper
the villainous doings Of iendish liber.
tines and unnatural mothers, and proved
to the public the truth Of his statements.
Many Of these ibertines are among the
nobility of England. For his interest in
humanity he was arrested, imprisoned
and convicted of q crime. The noble ~
libertines are still at large and occupy
exalted positions in social circles of the
Old World. The words Of William
Shakespeare naturally recur to us. "Oh,

As it is claimed that there have been
fewer commitments To the Kansas pen
itentiary since the prohibition law was
passed and partially enforced, w. G.
Jones, warden Of the penitentiary, fur
nishes the following card for publica-
tion. From the figures 1t is shown that
the claims Of the prohibitionists are not
substantiated by the facts. This is
what the warden says:
II have received at least half bushel
Of letters from temperance societies,
ministers and others making inquiries
regarding the increase or diminution Of
crime under the prohibitory law. Most
OF these came from Kansas, but many
OF them were from Iowa, Missouri,
Maine and other states. The records of
the prison give the following answer:
On April o, 1883, when / took charge of
the institution there were ga convicts
confined i'm the prison; on July l, 1884,
there were 75l, making an increase Of
l07 in about fifteen months. This. the
greatest increase that has occurred dur
/ ing the same number of months In the
last five years, occurs at time when
Kansas has been blessed with great
prosperity and labor in great demand,
which is always given as reason for
diminutiOn Of crime by all writers on
the subject. There has been no period
during the existence of the prohibitOry
law that 1t was 50 rigidly enforced as
during the time above mentioned. In
AtchisOn, Leavenworth. Shawnee and
| Wyandotte counties the open sale of in
toxicating liquors has never been inter-
rupted, and these counties have fur
nished a smaller proportion of convicts
in proportion to their population than
| the counties where the enforcement of
the law has been considered of the first
Importance. The total population of
the four counties named is estimated at
| III $50, and they have furnished an ag-
gregate number of 81 conyicts during
the last two years, while from the coun-
ties of Lyon, Wilson, Harvey, Miami,
Montgomery and Bourbon, with pop
ulation of 1855, and being counties
where the law has been expensive, if not
successful, have furnished Ill convicts
during the same period of time. In
other words, from prohibition popula-
ton of 1855 came sixteen more con-
victs than from an prohibition
population of Il7,53S.
The report Of the chaplain of the pris-
on shows that only % per cent. claim
that drink caused them to commit the
crimes for which they were committed,
and there is no doubt that this per cent.
is greatly exaggerated, from the fact
that in many cases the convict, rather
than acknowledge that his crime was
wilful and premeditated, uses the con-
venient excuse of whisky TO shelter him
self from self-conviction.
These facts CLEANED from the states
great cesspool of crime clearly demon
strate that prohibition is neither wise
nor an effective way to promote temper
ance or prevent crime.
