Light from Private Hands.

There is hardly ray of hope that the
Board of Aldermen will alter its conclu-
sion that this is not the time for the city
TO establish an electric-light plant of its
own. But the majority of the members
can yery consistently ask themselves if it
is not their duty to fix date when the
city will provide itself with this very
necessary adjunct TO its gas-msnufacturing
plant.
It is better to name time than to leave
the whole question involved in uncertainty
and obscurity.
However, the issue has been made and
decided and the next best thing we can do
is TO open the field of electric lighting to
competition. Competition may not con-
tinue long, but let US have the advantage
of it while we may.
1t was the inducement that competi-
ton offered in the way of low rates which
influenced many persons to oppose city
ownership Now let US. as soon es may be,
have the promised good. but in granting
each franchise it ought to be very clearly
provided that the city shall be at liberty
to revoke the privilege at will or at fur
thest upon a sixty or ninety days notice.
This is part of the ordinance that can
not he too carefully drawn.
We are still hopeful that the City Council
will reduce the price of gas to $1.25 per
thousand feet. The gss-works will soon
have to contend against the lowest rates
ever known for electric light here, and if
the prce Of $l.5o is insisted upon the
works will surely lose many customers.
An odd feature of this dual-light ar
rangement here will be that the city will
be expected 10 keep gas-meters in hun
dreds of houses where electric light is
habitually used-keep the meters there for
the convenience OF people who are willing
to patronize the gas-works only when cleo
trio light fails theml

What Italy Can Do.

II will be q nine-days' wonder if Italy
does not continue her protest as long as
abe finds it good policy at home to do SO
and no longer. We have SAID heretofore
that she has no case against the United
States. The New York Herald oonsults
Mr.. EyARTs's opinions when he was Score
tary Of State, and finds them TO have been
Just what they ought TO have been. Also,
with the same result, Secretary of State
BLAINE (under GARrnLD) end Secretary
of-State BAyARD. The same paper quotes
the Supreme Court OF the United States as
II that court had decided the other way.
But we see nothing wrong in that tri-
bunaps opinion. We quote:
"1'he National Government is Ia this wey
made responsible 10 foreign nations for all viola
tions by the United States Of their international
obligations
In what way2 BY the constitutional
provision which forbids the States to
enter into any relations with foreign ma
tons We quote again:
Tho lay OF nations requires every national gov
ernmenf to use "due diligence" to prevent a
wrong being done within It's own dominion to
another nation with which 1t is at peace or 70 the
people thereof.
That's all. We see nothing wrong in
that opinion.

RraRplnC.


II is deeply TO be regretted that tnere
should be any necessity for explaining tna'
the Italian population of New Orleans can
not Justly DO held responsible for the ex-
istence and acts of the MafR. When the
few Italians who constitute that gang OF
secret conspirators boast that there are 30
many thousands of people in this country
who are Italians by nativity. they do SO IN
the hope of magnifying their OWE Strength
and not with any good purpose, or be-
cause they correctly represent the feelings
of their fellow Italians. These plottors OF
mischief thus wrong their own country
men, and do them an injury whilst profess
ing 10 be guarding their interests ana de-
tending them from calumny.
In order TO test the boast made in New
Orleans ON Tuesday last that the COM
mittee who threatened to take the lives OF
MIR. PARKINSON, the Mayor, and others
represented 5000 Italians, we consulted
Che census of lsSc--the latest TO be had
and sscertsined that the whole number OF
the Italian-born population OF the United
States in 1880 was 44,2SO. OF these, we
suppose, half were under twenty years OF
age. Half perhaps Of the adults females.
So that to be exceedingly liberal we may say
that the entire number of ltalian-born
male adults in the United States in 1880
was probably not 1900. These were
scattered all over the country. New
Orleans possibly had more of them than
any one of our cities except New York.
But New Orleans could not have had more
than q few thousand of them. In 1870
there were only / 1889 Italians in Louisiana.
We repeat that it Is wrong done to
their own fellow-countrymen for the
Malta band of assassins to attempt to
claim the better class Of Italians as SYM
pathizers with them in their work OF
blood and murder. Italy ought to spew
these few miscreants out of her mouth in
stead Of claiming them as citizens. In
point of fact, they have nearly all re-
bounced their allegiance TO Italy.

Silver.

Is MIR. HARRISON working in the interest
ofthe Republican party when he permits his
Secretary Of the Treasury to refuse to al.
low gold bars to be issued to persons de-
string to transmit money to Europep We
cannot say that he Is. Nevertheless, II is
poor compliment which he thus pays 10
the white metal. This new form of the
war upon silver is we'll calculated to "give

A Great Disaster.

The collision in the Bay Of Gibraltar by
which the Anchor Lime steamship Utopia
was sunk proves TO have been one Of the
most awful calamities Of the age.
Probably not less than 400 persons lost
their lives. Tho passenger-vessel was ae-
sidently rsmmed" BY British ironclsd
and great hole was thus made in her hull,
causing her TO sink In few minutes. The
frightened men and women had barely felt
the shock when the water came pouring
