RAILROAD RATE LEGISLATION.

GAS AND WATER
10 ONE 40 NECESSARY AS THE
oTHER7
Citizens Of Large Cities Say IT Is.

New York, June 13.--In the recent
agitation here about the price of gas
the demand for lower rates was sup.
ported by the argument that every
resident is as dependent upon a sup.
ply OF gas as upon a supply OF good
water
II has come to pass that the day
laborer uses gas as his only fuel for
cooking, because Of economy, and the
rich man uses gas on account Of its
convenience. Gas for lighting, with
modern improvements In burners, is
cheaper, better and more satisfactory
than any other kind Of light. Gas
sells at Sl.00 per thousand cubic feet
In large cities and from that TO as
high as $500 in smaller towns.
The consumer Of gas in the country
uses Acetylene pronounced a.set.a.
lene), and each user makes his own
gas and is independent OF Gas and
Electric Companies. Acetylene is a
more perfect illuminant than the gas
sold by the big gas companies In the
cities, and the cost to the smallest
user Is about the equivalent Of city
gas at SIS cents per thousand.
Acetylene is the modern artificial
light, the latest addition to the many
inventions that have become daily
necessities.
The light from an acetylene flame
Is soft, steady and brilliant, and in
quality is only rivaled by the suns
rays. II water and a solid material
known as Calcium Carbide are
brought into contact, the immediate
result Is the making Of this wonder.
full gas. The generation OF acetylene
Is so simple that experience or even
apparatus Is not necessary TO make

tical lighting, and to keep 1t for i'm.
mediate use, then small machine
called an "Acetylene Generator" Is
employed. There are many response.
BILE concerns making acetyiene gener.
ators. In practice, this gas is dis.
tributed In small pipes throughout
buildings, grounds, or entire cities
and towns, In the same manner as
ordinary city gas. Acct. lrne is the

EutiIe Att,ek..

No public ofiicial in West virginia
has ever been made the object of
more yenomous attacks than those
made upon Governor w. NJ, o. Daw.
son by the Charleston Gazette. They
have been vicious and Insulting to the
States executive head but they have
fallen harmlessly from the object OF
attack because OF the fact that their
very yiciousness made apparent the
underlying cause. 1t is only natural
for the Democratic press to attack
Republicans who have been honored
by the people of the State and the
Gazette typifes this antagonistic
spirit. Is there Republican of
prominence whom It has not attacked
at some time or other of its career?
Is there one whom 1t will not attack
II you just give 1t. ,time? Governor
Dawson has been the object of such
attacks since he first turned his at.
tention to politics a quarter Of a cen.
fury ago. In his home county. while
he was giving the best of his interests
to his party and doing his share to.
ward the overthrow of Democracy.
he was the target of the enemy's mud
guns. Later. as chairman of the
State Central Committee and as Sec.
rotary of State he was met on every
side with the bitterest calumny. But
what has 1t availed his maligners.
unless 1t be the satisfaction they de-
rive from the very act of attempting
to besmirch another? William NJ. o.
Dawson has gone straight ahead
whipping Democrats at every turn of
his political career; he has done for
the State what others dared not at
tempt, and he is to-day giving West
Virginia one of the best administra.
lions 1t has ever had. He can afford
to ignore the dirty accusations of the
little fellows who have been left be.
