LTGET ON LIGET suBIEcT.

Anything and anybody that can throw light
upon any subject Of general interest is sure Of
a cordial welcome in Washington 1t is but
natural. therefore, that the convention of the
American Gas Light Association, which is to
meet here to-day, viii be regarded with
special consideration.
Gas Of different degrees and denominations
is not an unfamiliar quantity to our people.
Three varieties are especially well known
sewer gas, Congressional gas and illumina-
ting gas. There is not much complaint as to
the first named, but as regards the other two
much fault is found. Both are inordinately
expensive and as a rule of inferior quality
How 10 make them cost less and yet get Il bet
ter article IS what bothers the community.
Il is not TO be expected. of course that the
American Gas Light Association viii take
much pains to attempt a reform OF Congress
sional gas, for that is a task which requires
more time. and presumably more patience,
too, than this body Of gentlemen can com
mand We shall be quite wei satisfied, there
fore, if it viii bend its energies to the work of
convincing, or ut least, trying to convince.
the officials of the Washington Gas Light
Company that they ought TO give their pa
irons q better article FOR less money.
At the same time we venture TO suggest to
the convention that it ought 10 devote some
attention to the reformation Of that most un-
scrupulous Of all mundane devices. the gas
meter. Some means should be found, all will
agree, to make It less avaricious, less men
dacious. It should be taught the difference
between mine and thine. The convention
should try 10 impress upon it-no matter how
difficult the undertaking-the utter wicked
1 ness Of registering gas that has never been
/ consumed and running up the account in
favor Of the gas company in an inverse ratio
to the quantity used by the consumer.
( Perhaps there are other inherent vices Of
/ the gas meter and other shortcomings OF the
/ Gas Light Company than those hereinbefore
named with which The convention might deal,
/ but il it will bring about an improvement in
4 those referred to everybody in Washington
/ viii rise up and call the American Gas Light
4 Association blessed.
