COMING TO THE LIGHT.

III Is gratifying W hhu sOhe PSoP'S
who had nothing but shaking Of the
head for electric light projects, during
the recent session Of the Legislature,
coming now to think that illumination
by electricity is not altogether in its ex-
perimental stage but has taken its place
among the established useful inven-
tions Those people to be candid
shouIdconfess thatwhenthey opposedal
proposals for lighting Honolulu with
electricity they were doing so without
the slightest grounds founded upon
their knowledge. They should acknowl-
edge that they were blind to the in
formation coming in the foreign press
by every mail, of city after city and
town after town adopting the electric
light on the strength of its assured sue
cess in other cities and towns. To
show how rash the opponents of the
new illuminant were, statements made
in the Legislature may be cited, name
ly: "There was not at the present
time single city Of any size lighted
entirely by electricity" and, "rhere
could be found here and there some
street, large building or square lighted
by electricity" AS matter of fact
there are many cities larger than Homo
lulu which have adopted the electric
light as their main illuminant; but the
statements just quoted are misleading
even if true, because in most large
cities gas companies have moncpolies
and privileges the expiration of which
must be awaited before any other
method of lighting can be adopted.
The city of Providence, Rhode Island,
when the, writer visited il over two
years ago, had its business streets
lighted by electricity, and since then
has more than quadrupled the number
. of its electric lamps. Yet Providence
had one of the most efficient systems
Of gas lights to be found anywhere. Ii
is city of only ten times the popula
ton of Honolulu, il that answers the
description Of "any size" The city Of
Montreal, having about the same popu
lation as Providence, lately inaugurated
system of electric lighting for the
whole city, Notwithstanding that it had
complete gas lighting system 1t is
true that the question Of cost is one Of
great importance here, but it is pit,
that our "assembled wisdom" did moi
take proper steps to have that an6
other practical matters invt stigated, in
stead of wasting time in crying dowr
the adoption of an invention abou
which they were very poorly informed
A COMMITTEE did obtain and return the
figures prepared by TWO rival combina
tons seeking the charter, but events
proved that those provisional com
panies did not make an exact showing
of what an efficient illumination woulo
cost. The matter is left in the hands
of the Government, and it must be
remembered that, in considering the
cost, comparison must not be made
with the present miserable apology fol
lighting the city, but with system
containing large number Of additional
gasoline lamps. 1t is for the King in
Cabinet Council to ascertain whether
the electric light cannot be shed all
over the city at cost little If anything
above that OF degree of gasoline light
ing such as is absolutely required

nearly 10000 pounds of syrup. The
weighed portion, which was run into

than 20 pounds of first-class sugar per

of sucrose and S-Ioths per cent OF
