POMONA.
The Electric Lighting of the City.
Notes

| The Electric Lighting of the City.
Notes
POMONA, Nov. 2S,-Our citizens gen.
orally were interested Saturday night in
| the event of the city being lighted by
electricity for the first time. Perhaps
the center room of the Union block was
the most brilliantly lighted Of any, oc-
cupied by the Western Union telegraph,
J. E. Packard of the Packard vineyard
tract. Jas. H. Todd of the Todd pipe
works, Drifill q Lewis the insurance
men, and City Tax Collector j. w.
| Goodwin, as there were 10 incandescent
lights in use there to show how bright
room can be made.
1t was a beautiful white, even light,
and everyone was we'll pleased. All the
| connections are not yet made, and last
nights display was surprise.
The arc lights have not yet been put
in but will be shortly. The plant is in
many respects the most wonderful in
the world. The dynamos are situated
13 miles from Pomona in San Antonio
cafion, where the water comes rushing
down the caflon at fearful rate. Fifteen
hundred feet above the dynamos the
water is t1rned from its course through
tunnel 1900 feet long and thence into
steel pipe thirty inches in diameter.
The 30-inch stream is then re-
duced to one-half inch at the Pelton
water. wheel below, and from that comes
the power which generates the electric
ity. As will be seen the cost of gener-
ating the current is practically nothing
in the way of fuel, engines, etc. The
water, after being used, is turned into
the cailon again with less loss than if
let run in the bed. There is practically
no end of power, as the water can be
used both above and below the plant for
more power if necessary. The current
is brought Is miles to the city. A move
ment is on foot to ask the editors OF
Southern California to visit the wonder
full plant.
The San Antonio Electric Light and
Power company has scored a SUCCESS in
| its undertaking.

the thousands of delegates from oil

were here from England, France, Ger

Among the Americans who took n

credentials of the delegates, and d. +.
Warner Of Washington. Many Of the
most prominent preachers Of the
country were in attendance and spoke.
The gathering was convened under the

delegates we're not limited 10 members
Of this association. All evangelical
Christians engaged or interested In
aggressive Christian effort, had the
privilege to attend as delegates. The
subjects were connected with aggres-
sive Christian and benevolent work
more especially to plans and methods
OF work for reaching the classes not
reached by the ordinary ministrations
of the gospel. A large number Of
earnest and well-known Christians
at work-pastors, evangelists and
city missionaries were present, aud q
programme covering many importan,
phases of practical Christian work
has been prepared. The proposed
congress Of religions in connection
with the Worlds Fair next year was

quick transit via the Nicaragua Canal,
American cotton would be in active de-
mand. General Grant is quoted as
saving: "In few years China and
Japan will consume more cotton than
is now groduced in the United States
In 1888 Japan imported 81 ,257 pounds
of American cotton; in 1889, 95,2O4
in 1890, 2,366,099; in 1891, 1912 ,562,
most of which was shipped from New
Orleans to New York, thence by rail
to Vancouver and by steamship from
Vancouver to Kobe, Japan. If a
shorter all-water route was opened up
between New Orleans and Japan, does
any one doubt that the demand for
American cotton would be marvelously
incrcascdS
The coal trade OF South America
and also of the Pacific Coast is now
monopolized by the English. But let
the Nicaragua Canal be opened and
Alabama and West Virginia coal will
he in demand and have Il decided ad.
vantage over our English competitors.
More than this, the Canal Company
itself would use enormous amounts of
coal. There would be established coal
ing stations at the company's termi-
nal that could easily be supplied with
coal from the Gulf States. The Off
cial bulletins show that 100000 tons
of coal were sold at the entrance of
the Suez Canal last year.
The industrial South would be
quickened by open doors to new mar
kets.
The entire Mississippi valley, in
cluding the lake ports and the country
tributary thereto, with its immense
traffic, would feel the beneficial re-
suits of new and largely increased
demand for all their products, by thus
having practically another mouth to
this great river opening into the Pa
Citic ocean Every farmer, workman
and tradcsman Of the interior would

advantage in distance of 200 miles.
ship building and shipping inter.

impetus. A new coasting trade will
spring up and American tonnage on
the high seas will largely increase.

WHOLE NUMBER 1,7l6.
A Voting Machine.

The length of time (which must
necessarily elapse after an election,
before the complete returns can be
ascertained, makes it open to question
whether the present system cannot be
improved upon. A machine arranged
somewhat on the plan of cash regis
ter, has been invented by man
named Myers and has been tried with
perfect satisfaction at the town OF
Lockport, N. Y. 1t stands some seven
feet high and five feet square. A voter
as he enters finds himself entirely ex-
cluded from the public gaze. In front
of him are row of knobs, and all the
voter has to do is to push the knob
corresponding to the name of the man
for whom he wishes to vote, also for
or against local propositions submit
ted, and the machine does the rest.
His first vote locks all the rest OF the
knobs for that Office, so that he can
not vote twice, and when he comes out
of the exit door, the examining board,
who sit behind, release all the knobs
for the next voter.
At the close of the polls the folding
doors at the back OF the machine arc
opened, and hey, presto! there it is,
all figured up; every push OF the knob
has registered itself and the totals are
all footed up ready for the inspectors.
No sitting up all night making a
weary count; five minutes is all that
is necessary to take down the figures
and make out the certificates. We
see no reason why this machine should
not be generally employed. Besides
assisting the voter in making his vote
intelligently, it would be saving Of
expense in the long run.
