How to Cure the Fogs of London.

proposal is now under considera-
ton for the prevention of the smoke aud
fog plague by which London. is from
time to time afflicted. The waste in
volved in this displacement of useful
matter is something grodigious, and it
IS somewhat surprising that until now
no feasible attempt has been made to
remedy it. A weak idea of what Lon
don fog is may be gathered from the
following description by famous Lon
don correspondent: Everybody is rail
ing at or signing over the fiendish fog
that has kept London in its grip during
the last fortnight; the thick darkness
has reached climax; the trains as
they pass across the bridges are exact
representations of Mirzah's vision on
the hills above Bagdad, as they emerge
from mysterious, misty region. The
palatial halls of the West End are ut
terly deserted. In one of the largest and
best known Diapers shops in the West
End the attendants complain that bust
ness Is at standstill, and the seasons
trade is practically lost. The flower,
confectionery and jewelry trades are
also great sufferers by the fogs. 1t
drives the tradespeople to despair, and
everywhere only one refrain is repeat
ed: The fog is disastrous, ruinous.
The three weeks fog has done more
harm to the tradesmen than q season of
industrial depression While the fog
lasted many millions of people had from
morning until night to breathe as best
they could an atmosphere that seemed
to be composed of frozen particles of
SCOT and sulphur. Only those who
passed the long hours of the dark day
in the midst of the terrible fog can real
ize the suffering which it brought with
it. In the streets, in the omnibusses.
IN the railway carriages, the people
seemed to be positively benumbed by
the dreadful visitation. They covered
together in speechless misery. Exist
ence itself was painful. No wrappings
could keep out the fog, and many hun
dreds of people were poisoned by it as
certainly as though they had drunk
prussic acid or solution of arsenic"
The proposed remedy for this frightful
state of things is to turn large portion
of the coal supply of the Yorkshire,
Stailordshire and South Wales coal
fields into gas and convey it by pipes
into London, where its use will be regu-
lated somewhat after the same manner
as that adopted in Pittsburgh with nat
ural gas. Such an abundant supply of
cheap fuel would mean a saving to the
city of over one hundred million dollars
annually, besides Transforming the city
of smoke and fog into one Of the health
lest places in the world

Surely and positively the meaning
of that "Force Bill" is coming
forth. The republican party, being
in power, sought to pass a bill
through congress, at last session,
which gave the governmental the
photographic right to surround
the polls with troops. Now that the
militia or standing army has been in
creased to about 100000 men, and
cavalry and artillery sections are
sought to be added, we can see what
the Force Bill meant. We will yet
see what it means when the polls do
become the centres of fraud and
force throughout this land. The
day is not far distant when the plu-
tocracy of this land will assert it's
despotic powers at the polls-and woe
unto them and unto us when that
day comes.
