DEVELOPMENT ofElectric Power.

No one interested in the subject of cleo
trical development can have failed to he
impressed by the extent to which capital
lists are securing control of water powers
in different parts of the country and thus
providing for a time when electrical power
will largely have supplanted steam. not
only for the propulsion of cars on street
and other railroads but also for all kinds
of manufacturing. Rutland and St NJ
bans have rejoiced during the past week
over the development of projects Of this
character in their vicinity and "A number
of similar instances are reported from
Northern NV York.
Residents in the vicinity Of the Green
Mountains and the Adiron lacks have re-
joiccd in these majestic works of nature
because of the magnificent panoramas
and beautiful scenery which they afford,
and also on account of the material gains
resulting from the influx of summer vs-
tors attracted by these wonderful vistas.
The time is not far distant when a
multitude of towns will find new source
of enjoyment in our great mountain
ranges as a few communities have al
ready demonstrated. From the mountain
sides are flowing the waters of innumer-
able springs and rivulcts which dash
down precipices and then unite their
forces in some placid stream, only to ind
new falls down which they must leap,
thus affordng man in their changing con-
ditions the opportunities to repeatedly
harness them and gain power for numer-
Gus and various industries.
In the not distant future through the in
fluence of the development of electric
power plants this region, which has been
noted in our school histories and geogra-
phies chiefly for the production of hay
and butter and cheese and horses and
sheep, will become known for its manu-
featuring industries. In time every
stream of any size will find its progress
impoded by dams wherever these struc-
lures are possible and profitable and the
power thus gained will be transmitted by
the electric current to factories and mills
of every description. Indeed in the light
Of present achievements it requires no
great stretch OF the Imagination to look
forward 20 a period when our streams " i'll
not only furnish power for the prosecu-
ton Of industries in rural communities as
