T.IE ELECTRIC LIGHT.
The Opening Night, a Success.
faaa Eiurnin atiols.

The frs, lighting of the streets o
Carson by electricity on Thursda,
night was generally voted success
The lights did not all work perfectly
as they never do on the first APP
| plication OF the electric current, but
these irregularities were corrected
yesterday. Ii will probably be two or
three days to get everything IN per-
tect working order.
The light has u blush tinge and
a single lamp will throw Il percepti-
bic light and cast shadow five OF
SIX blocks.
Persons walking past Mr.. Cups
house were greatly assisted in find
ing their way by the light swung on
sweeny's corner.
at the railroad shops are eight
lights. One in the blacksmith shop,
one in The round house, one IN the
car shop, two in the machine shop,
one in the foundry, one in the wood
yard, and one On the depot plat
form.
The workmen say the light gives
a better show to see we'll than
when the sun comes filtered through
dingy windows in the day time. At
the box factory the light was much
clearer than in the day time al
though in some portions of the
place the shadows are very heavy.
Crowds OF people were on the
street curiousiy Watching the new
effect. Those who did not pay any
thing for the new light of course |
growled because they we're not get |
ting four or five full moons. Some |
persons who lived Ola the back
streets counted on never being
obliged to use any more oil, and
they were considerably disap-
pointed.
A good many in favored locations
get about as much benefit for moth
ing as those who pay 81 a week.
Enc Lumber Company's yard was
lighted by four lights, bu, thoy have
not dispensed with any watchmen On
that account us reported.
The light WAS 1000 candle power,
md those who have seen the Reno
light pronounce this UNNECESSARILY
superior.

A Subscribers Discovery.

Yesterday man rushed into the
APPEAL sauctum with wild glee
all over his face. He had an Ar
PEAL in one hand. He said he
never liked to be captious, but there
was big mistake in the paper and
he wanted to call attention to it.

an editorial on one side saying that
Emperor William died at noon, and
oa the other side local saying that
you announced it to the public a.

Here he gave low quiet chuckle
indicative of smothcred delight
1t took nearly half an hour to ex-
plain to the man that there was
several hours difference in Carson
and Berlin time, and that it was
noon there a good deal earlier than
here. He looked like man hit in
the neck by profound disappoint-
ment, and went down stairs full OF
sorrow, but as the editor remarked,
.'By the way, it turns out that the
old Emperor is not dead at all,

up. "Weli, by lingo. knew there
was something wrong in the Item"

CONGRESSMAN W. S. Holman will have served
twenty years in the House of Representatives
at the close of his present term.
CISoINNATI Commercial Gazette: There are
persons for whom Harrison did not strain him
self when U. S. Senator, and some of them still
itch in the old sore places, and they want TO
talk about something TO disturb Harrison.
The Democratic national convention meets
two weeks before the Republican convention,
but the Republicans have twenty-six State con-
ventions called for the election of delegates,
while the Democrats have only eleven called

UNANIMOUS vote of the club, upon the motion of

harmony in the party.
SPRINGFIELD Union: There will be no place

after they get home and see what the Demo-
cratic papers say about them.

as candidate for delegate from the State at
large to the Chicago convention. Certainly
better representative of the State could be
selected than Mr.. Sayre and if his name is
submitted to the convention there can be no
doubt of his election with whereas.
DENVER REPUBLICAN,: If the convention de-
cides that it would be better to nomi nate an
Eastern man. or If Ii decides to select candi-
date in the West, in either event the friends of
Mr.. Blaine will be found among the most faith
ful advocates OF the cause. They have not a
single word of dictation to utter. They will be
true to the party and its principles. whoever
may be the nominee.
LOUISVILLE Commercial: There is but one
way in which Mr.. Blaine can be the Republican
candidate. and that is by the unanimous vote of
the Chicago convention. His party cannot af-
ford to make him its leader again under any
other circumstances Any attempt to work up
an organized following for him will result in a
factiona contest that would be fatal. If he is
chosen at ali it must be by reclamation. AT
this time it does not seem probable that there
will be any demand of this kind. All the indi-
cations are that the Republican party will look
elsewhere for leader.

GRANT AND BADgAu.

The letter of General Grant to General
Badeau, written in May, 1885. and called out
by Badeus suit against the Grant estate for
alleged services in writing Grants memoirs,
is like a familiar voice from the grave. It is
SO frank, honest, manly and in all respects
characteristic of the writer Badeau must
have made very preposter Gus proposition
and written very offensive letter to have
called out such a reply. The personal rela-
tons between Grant and Badeau had been of
the most intimate and friendly character, and
it looks as if the latter had presumed on these
to make proposition in regard to the prepar-
alton of the memoirs which was extortionate
in pecuniary sense and dishonoring to Gen.
Grant in other ways. The substance of it
seems to have been that as Grant was not
literary man, and therefore unable to do the
work in proper form, Badeau should revise
the composition and put on the finishing
touches, while the book should go out as the
work of Grant. For this service
Badeau asked $1,000 month and an
interest in the sale of the book. General
Grants reply to this astounding proposition
comes as near showing downright Indignation
as anything that has ever been published
from his pen. He says: ''You imply that
literary man must supply some deficiencies,
and that you are the only man who can do it.
IF this is the case, General, 1 do not want
book bearingsmy name to go before the world
which did not write to such an extent as to
be fully entitled to the credit of authorship"
The honest old soldier would not lend his
name to fraud. even to cover up his sup
posed literary deficiencies. Again. he says:
cit would be a degradation for me to accept
honors and profit from the work of another
man, while declaring to the public that it was
the product of my own brain and hand" Not
allmen would be as careful to protect their
honor at the possible expense Of their pockets
FIR no doubt Badeau represented that the
pec1niary success OF the book would depend
in large degree on its iterary style. In fact,
however, the soldier-like simplicity of
Gratis style, and the entire absence of all
attempt at literary ornamentation is one of
the principal charms of his book. The
resppndence is very honorable to General
Grant, and decidedly the reverse to Badeau.

IT is poor blizzard that doesn't blow good
to some one. New Jersey has profted by the
late storm, if no one else has. The Legisla-
ture of that State had passed dozen or more
bills which 1t was the intention of the Gov
ernor to veto when he got chance at them;
but, as it happened-or, as devout New Jer-
seyites would have, as Providence ruled-hs
was snow bound at his home and could not
get to the capital before the expiration of the
five days allowed by the Constitution for We
toes. As consequence, the bills are laws
and, as they were passed by Republican
Legislature, it is a matter of course that they
are all measures of public utility.

claims and fitness for the Office
and name him as their preference. Not the
least significant is the hearty support given
Gen. Harrison by the colored people; and
should he be nominated the Republican party
can count upon the heaviest colored vote,
both North and South, ever polled. That
Gen. Harrison can carry Indiana by larger
majority than any Presidential candidate in
the field, no one doubts With other States
fast falling into line. his nomination at
Chicago next June is becoming probability
which every loyal Indiana Republican viii
warmly welcome and aid.

The SENTINEL AND rae POLICE.

When the hero of Joshua Whitcomb"
goes to Boston and finds some things diff
ferent from what he had been accustomed to
on the farm, he sets about reforming them,
and declares. in burst of bucolic enthusi-
asm, "Now have started in I'm goin' to reg
ulate the hull darned city The fresh-born
zeal of the Sentinel Is not less ambitious. In
the course of reforming the whole city it has
got around TO the police savage attack
which it makes on the Board of Police Com
missioners and the force generally is intended
to create the impression that the former are
incompetent ana the latter both incompetent
and corrupt. The present board and force
are compared with those of former years, and
the assertion is broadly made that the laws
were never as poorly enforced nor the city as
badly protected as at present This is simply
untrue, and everybody knows it. The pres
ent board consists of Col N. R. Ruckle, Hon.
John B. Elan and Mr.. William Henderson.
1t requires very little local acquaintance TO
know that these gentlemen compare very
favorably with Sterling r. Holt r. G. J.
and other Democrats who formerly served on
the board. The present commissioners are
men who will do their duty if they know
what 1t is. and they are about as apt to know
it as anybody. The assertion that they have
turned the force into Republican machine
is unqualifedly false. They have made
no new appointments on the force.
except to fill vacancies, and in
every case the person appointed has been of
the same politics as the one going out. So
dergone no change. The charge of ineficiency
against the chief of police will have to be
proved before it will be believed by those who
know him, while that of corruption against
certain members of the force ought to be in
vestigated. The Sentinel should be given a
chance to prove its assertions on this behalf,
as well as to disclose its pretended knowledge
relative to the existence of gambling-houses
and the presence in the city of notorious
criminals. It is one thing to make sweeping
assertions of this kind and another thing to
prove them. The SentinePs opinion relative
to Chief Traviss competency is a mere opin-
ion, and may go for what it is worth. but if it
knows what 1t pretends to know in regard to
the misconduct of any member of the forcs
it should be required to particularize.
The real animus of the Sentinels attack is
perfectly apparent. It is designed for political
effect. The local Democracy are in sad straits
for campaign material. They are "out of
meat" With the chairman of their county
committee under sentence to the penitentiary
another slick worker already there, and sew
eral more under indictment; with the Liq-
uor League practically broken up and their
revenue from the saloon fund cut off, they
are in hard lines The breaking up of the
Liquor League is largely due to the efforts of
the police and Chief Travis. This has dried
up the main source of Democratic campaign
funds, and made them very mad. This is the
real animus of the attack.
