LET THERE BE NO MISUNDERSTANDING.


.
A Protest From the Middle Counties and Stern End
Of the Congressional District.
The prospects Of Mr.. William L.
Wilson getting seat in the Cabinet
has caused several aspirants for his
place in Congress to spring up in the
eastern end of this Congressional dis
trict. Before this matter progresses
too far it might be we'll to take our
bearings. This end of the district has,
on account Of the superior abilities Of
Mr.. Wilson, freely accorded him the
nomination for Eve terms. 1t no doubt
will continue to do so as long as he de-
sires to remain in Congress, but if he
should 60 into the Cabinet or otherwise
yacate his seat in the Lower House we
will bitterly resist giving the nomina-
ton to any gentleman from the ex-
treme east. The middle counties and
the stern end will positively assert
their claims. A properunderstanding
Of these matters might save trouble
later on. Fairmont I,sder.

SMASH THE OLD LAMPS.

A French Scientist's Radical Advice TO Coust m
ers Of Electricity.
All consumers Of electricity want
their incandescent lamps TO be as long
lived as possible. A writer in receui
number Of r IndastTe Electrique states,
however, that the idea Of using lamp
until the globe is blackened or the
filament wears out is great mistake,
He AYERS that the truest economy lies
in smashing the old lamps after few
hundred hours of service.
By means Of a series Of experiments
this gentleman has determined the
moment at which q lamp should b.
discarded. This point is fixed BY plot
ting q certain number Of curves show
ing the peculiar characteristics Of q
lamp. In this way its value at any
instant of its existence could readily
be estimated.
Five makes Of 16-candle powerlamps
used BY one Of the Paris electric light
companies were employed in the ex-
periments. What the writer calls the
smashing point was reached in every
case but one in 200 hours.
The conclusion which the writer
z
reaches regarding incandescent lamps
is that they last too long. The reason
for this is that the point at which they
cease to use the current economically
is reached long before the .nomina
life of the lamps is Spawned. Conse
iquently, BY discarding them before
they are played out there is obtained
more light for the same price.

OUR SCHOOL FUND IN DANGER

The way in which the money de.
rived from the sale of school lands is
being disposed Of gives rise to the
Rravest apprehension. Under the
law as it stands il 10 loane "ped
died" in small sums to individuals
who pay interest At the rate Of 6 per
cent. per annum.
The prevailing rate In this State
being 10 per cent. per annum, i. will
be seen thss, right here, there is . loss
to the school fund of at least four per
cent. per annum. Then, too, the cost
Of making and looking after such
small losus will, in mos, cases, exceed
the interest receipts, sud-there will
be another source of loss.
1t seems as if, in all cur public A.
fairs, we were eternally blundering,
and making one blunder after another.
1t matters not what law is passed, the
people get worstej in its application.
Such method as this applied to our
school funds, for instance, would not
be tolerated in the most primitive
communities.
There being no unfundel State

school money to tho State. But there
arc many county debts, and the money
could be safely invested in these. II,
~ is well-nigh impossible, = county
should ever become depopula lated and
deserted. and its taxable property be
totally destroyed, the State would be
compelled to assume its indebtedness.
In loaniug school funds to counties
the loan would therefore DO secure d
beyond possibility Of loss.

law did not think OF this. And
