The fight on Monday was a hot and
bitter cne. May we never live 70 wit
ness another town election tainted with
politics.-DOver Index.
We would no. be harsh, nor would we
glcat over the vanquished but we
should be recreant to our sense of duty
to the public if we should fail TO con-
denim and denounce the conduct OF the
Unicn Republican party. It was O
blow at good municipal government,
discreditable in the extreme to the
party, and an outrage which should be
remembered next NOvember.-Dover

Talk Of a PARTISAN charter for this
city is foolish. We have that now, and
it is in no sense satisfactory. If we
cannot have new charter which will
remove our municipal affairs from the
dirt of party politics we might just as
we'll go on as we have been doing
Whmingtonians want home rule on
strictly business lines. Nothing short OF
that win satisfy them. For years the
governor OF our state has been the
city's mayor and the General Assemb-
ly of the state has been its City Couns
ell. It is time that the people OF city
OF this size and intelligence should be
accorded the right to govern them
selves and work out their own des-

THE WASHINGTON LIGHT.
Exhibition OF New niuminant at Hotel
Band Concert Tonight.

Exhibition OF New Illuminant at Hotel
Band Concert Tonight.
There will be an exhibition this
evening, in connection with the
band concert at the Hawaiian ho-
tel, of the washington" light
briefly noticed in this paper on
Tuesday. The new illuminating
agency derives its name from the
fact that the inventor is descend
ant of the family of George Wash
ington. His father was an Amer
icsn who went from England to
Belgium and established manu-
factory of dye stuffs at Brussels.
He equipped a laboratory for his
son after the latter had left school.
The young man took up the study
of power and illuminants.
1t was while he was experiment.
ing with the kerosene OIL to secure
power for a motor cycle, that he
hit upon the important discovery
that resulted In the new light. He
found that by completely vaporiz-
ing the oil and blending it with
air, in the proportion of ninety
percent of air and only ten percent
of vapor, he could secure a gas of
the greatest purity, capable of
producing most brilliant and stea.
dy light at a minimum cost. AS
soon as the principle was develop.
ed and lamp completed, the in
ventor perfected his patents in all
the countries Of Europe and the
United States. Factories in Brus-
sells, New York, Boston and Gin
cinnati have not been able to keep
up with the demand.
With a brilliancy vying with
the arc electric light, the Wash.
ington lamp provides light cheap
to a ridiculous degree. The cost
in Boston of an arc electric light
night is about rs cents, aud for
twenty lamps would equal SIS
night. For the same amount Of
candle power produced by the
Washington light the cost will be
81 40 a night. The cost of main
tanning this light five hours would
be less than the cost oil a tallow
candle. Or, a 500 candle power
light would cost about two cents
for five hours.
1t is a light that does not sput-
ter or flicker, and it contains n
minimum OF active rays, which
are the element in electric and
other lights injurious to human
sight. A peculiar and highly
valuable property of the light is
its clearness in bringing out col.
ors. SO pure is it that colors may
be matched by il as in sunlight.
