ELECTRIC LIGHT.
a GoOd Scheme and tlie Edison In
VentiOn Has the Preference.

a GoOd Scheme and tiie Edison In
VentiOn Has the Preference.
To the Press and DakOtdida.
| noticed in your last nights paper q
statement shat some Of our citizens were
considering the question of establishing
an electric light system for our city.
This certainly would be o move in the
right direction and if the proper system
is adopted to begin with, would prove
only a paying investment for the
incorporatore, but also furnish a sys-
TEN of lighting that would be as cheap
aud far superior to any form of lllumina-
ton in use. The Edison incandescent cleo
trio light system is perhaps the cheap.
est and best of all. 1t is operated by an
electric current from an underground
central station and the current is SO
slight that all danger from being shocked
by a touch of the wire is removed. In
this respect the Edison system is supe.
rior to all others, and is absolutely safe.
There is no p~erceptible heat radia-
ted by the light; it emits no odor and is
beautiful and brilliant. 1t can be used
in factories and mills where other lights
are inadmis5ible, as the heat from the
light is so slight as not to ignite the
most intiammable material that comes in
contact with it. While it Is also far su-
perior in brilliancy to gas, it is also said
to be just as cheap or cheaper to the
consumer.
If u system of electric light is to be
put in an investigation Of the Edison
electric light would certainly be advisa-
BILE. Many cities in the west and east
have adopted it, and it seems to be CIV
ing excellent satisfaction wherever used.
