We do NOT know, nor is it necessary,
who is responsible for the very insult
ticient service given the city by the
electric light company. 1t only re-
mains rs fact that we have the poor
est lights in point of brilliance and
ccnstancy OF any town in the State,
and the time is now quite ripe for the
city either to pny more for n better ser
vice or obtain control Of her lighting
franchises. We do not pretend tOknow
the cause of the extremely poor light
given by the arcs used here, but it
strikes lis that one cause is the absence
OF elevation, so that the rays concen-

nowhere else. Another complaint is
IN regard to the arbitrary shutting off
OF the lights upon the approach of any
little cloud, the cheap, Intellectual ar

arrcster. 1t can be made appreciably
less by using those of q late and i'm

service here ut the earliest possible
date. This docs not refer to the many
dead lights one finds in little stroll
