After all the scaling -ladders and telescope

material from iron to asbestos rope have been
tired and found Ineffective against certain con.
tingencies al great fires, the saving authori.
ties have finally turned their attention TO perfect
ing q system which will enable persons In burn
ing buildings 70 jump out OF the upper windows
into a net held by circle of men on
the ground The trouble with every de-
vice Of this kind thus far consists not in the
quality OF the net, or the oificulry OF In
ducinS persons 70 jump. but In the unsteady
nerves Of the undisciplined volunteers who hold
the net They become panic-strfcken, either
through anxiety for the safety OF the jumper or
through fear that the falling body VIII strike and
crush them They therefore, &C q critical mo
ment, either rush toward each other, thus slack
ening the net or pull in diagonaly opposite direc-
tons, thus distortng Its shape, or drop their hold
altogether, which Is worst of all. It may not be
advisable 70 require professional fremen TO leave
the other work which they are specially
qualified TO perform, and to become net
holders; but the idea suggests itself
whether, in every large city. there could not be
organized q corps OF citizens, in the nature OF q
charitable Or mutual defensive association who
would submit TO regular drll in this line of work.

50 much noise was made In Rhode Island during
The recent political canvass, by the quarrel be-
tween the leading men and newspapers In the re-
publican party, that the outside world heard
almost not hing OF the revolution which was quietly
taking place within the little state. It appears
now that the clause In the state constltu-
ton, which required every naturalized citi-
zen 10 own a freehold valued at sI34. or
renting for 81 year. as prerequisite to casting
vote. was wiped out By an amendment adopted
by very slender majority. The restriction thus
abolished was less obnoxious than the one against
which Dorr rebelled In 1872, and which united an
element Of heredity with the property Qualifca-
ton, but IL was bad enough, for 1t had regularly
d,sfrsnchised a multitude OF people against whom
NO charge could be made except that they had been
unfortunate In financial matters, or had chosen
other form OF Investment than real estate for
the disposal OF their savings The effect Uf the
stnct.on was 70 reduce the total vote Of the sta
nearly oDe-hslf OF Its normal amount The total
population OF Rhode Island, by the census OF 1885,
was e76, SCI. This, according to the usual CON-
putstlon OF i've members to n household, and
allowing for non-naturalized immigrants, would
make the voting population somewhere about
$1,000. The largest votes recorded on state
elections up 10 that year. however, never exceeded
1000, and usually fell considerably short of
2O,0o0 Supposing the state to have grown during
the last seven years proportionally TO its
growth during the ten years Just preceding,
she ought now % have a voting population Of be.
tween 5000 and 10000. Some recent statisti.
clans give it As nearly $1,000. Yet the uncom-
monty full vote Of wednesday last brought out less
than 900 ballots The wiping out OF the old re-
striction will give Rhode Island place In politics
better corresponding to the rank TO which her i'm
portaHce In other respects entities her. Both par
ties viii lay CLAIM TO the SURFACES OF the newly
enfranehised thousands. The democrats believe
they will get the bulk OF them, the theory that
the foreign element In the population naturally
tends 70 that side; while the republicans believe
that the new voters Will enlist with the dominant
party In the state, because that party gave them
their franchise.
